Covering the Heavens: Starting from the First Great Emperor

Chapter 140 Quasi-Immortal Emperor

Countless eras have passed, the great river has swept away everything, and countless ages have changed. The trajectory of fate has become increasingly solidified within Xu Yuanming's body, with only one final step remaining.

This time, he arrived in the chaotic ancient era.

This is the most unique era.

"Who is coming?!"

This was a young man, holding a celestial bow. He was only a hundred years old, yet he had already defeated me. He was extremely powerful. His eyes were like torches as he looked angrily at the young man who had suddenly appeared before him.

This young man was naturally Xu Yuanming. He had arrived at the early stage of the Chaotic Ancient Era, when the Immortal Ancient Era had just ended. Countless forces were standing together, with the Immortal Clan of Longevity reigning supreme.

He smiled gently and said, "My name is Xu Yuanming."

"Xu Yuanming?"

The boy muttered to himself, wondering why this person, a name he had never heard before, would suddenly appear here.
Xu Yuanming asked with a smile, "Who are you?"

"Meng Tianzheng!" the young man said proudly, puffing out his chest.

……

……

As time passed and years went by, Xu Yuanming taught Meng Tianzheng, but he did not give him any methods, only the most basic ideas.

To use oneself as a seed.

He was taught from the Void Path all the way to the Supreme Realm.

When the Emperor summoned them, the dark creatures in the Boundary Sea stirred up a frenzy and launched multiple attacks.

Many True Immortals perished in the battle.

In the ancient times of the immortals, the victory was pyrrhic, and the immortal king disappeared without a trace.

Meng Tianzheng suspected that this person was a Celestial King who lived in the world in the past. The reason was that when he fought against a genius from the Immortal Clan named Wang Changsheng.

He suppressed him with an overwhelming advantage. Finally, the clan's ancestor, who had become a supreme immortal, took action to nip him in the bud.

In the present world, there is no Immortal King among the nine heavens and ten earths. The ancestor of the Wang family is the most powerful being and is undoubtedly invincible.

However, when the other party saw Xu Yuanming for the first time, he was terrified and immediately knelt down to beg for forgiveness, but in the end it was no use.

In a moment of terror, the Wang family patriarch vanished into nothingness.

This mysterious young man must be a Celestial King!
Many years later, Wang Changsheng became incredibly strange for some reason. His strength increased by leaps and bounds. He was just a cultivator at the Escape One Realm back then, but after a thousand years away, he actually became the pinnacle of the Extreme Dao!
You must know that he was guided by a Celestial King, which is why he barely reached the pinnacle of the human realm before the age of 1,500. His strength was remarkable, and some immortals even called him 'Emperor'!
With a hint of the powerful figure who controlled destiny during the ancient times, he said, "At the very least, he will become a giant in the future!"

What is a giant?
Living in this era, where news has been cut off, even though he has reached the pinnacle of the Dao, he still feels unfamiliar with the ethereal 'Immortal King' and doesn't know what the giant truly symbolizes.

Finally, the dark creatures swept back, and the royal family betrayed them.

Wang Changsheng is almost an immortal; in less than 100,000 years, his strength has surpassed that of ordinary people.

The few remaining True Immortals in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths fought with all their might to resist at the Imperial Pass.

However, this is no longer the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths of the Immortal Ancient Era; there are no Immortal Kings, let alone giants.

The defeat was complete. As Meng Tian was returning, the traitorous Wang Changsheng seized the opportunity and severely injured him.

Xu Yuanming saw all of this, but did not take any action.

Finally, the strange power within Wang Changsheng erupted, and a Dark Immortal King descended upon the world.

Upon arriving at this point, Xu Yuanming had no choice but to take action and kill this strange immortal king.

At this point, Xu Yuanming suddenly realized why Cao Yusheng had mentioned Wang Changsheng so much.

It turned out to be the case.

Not long after, people from the Immortal Realm arrived. A great figure, a Celestial King, wanted to protect the Wang family, simply because, in the previous era, the True Immortal of the Wang family who died at the hands of Xu Yuanming was his friend.

News from the Immortal Realm and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was blocked, and it took him so long to find out.

Xu Yuanming quietly looked at the being in front of him, who was at the Supreme Realm, holding the Immortal King's decree in his hand. He couldn't remember what the being said.

I just found it a bit funny.

This scene was all too familiar. It was just like this when he broke through to the Heavenly Venerable realm. A descendant of the Wang family came to find him.

At the same time, Xu Yuanming also understood why Wang Changsheng's mark was so difficult to deal with back then. A dark being who was almost a true immortal also had the mark of an immortal king in his body.

"Are you even listening, Celestial King of the Lower Realm?"

The supreme being, holding the imperial edict, spoke coldly.

Xu Yuanming remained silent, and with a casual strike, he killed the Immortal King and the Supreme Being together.

Afterwards, he ascended to the Immortal Realm.

Acting with great fanfare, the River of Destiny was erected once again. During the Immortal Ancient Era, everyone knew what this River of Destiny symbolized.

That being who was invincible throughout the entire sea of ​​realms did not die!

He's back again.

Xu Yuanming arrived at the ancient realm of that immortal king, glanced at the immortal king inside, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Scared to death.

One of the immortal kings was so frightened that he died.

Xu Yuanming found it hilarious that a peerless immortal king could be scared to death like that!
He burst into laughter without realizing it.

The dozens of Immortal Kings of the Immortal Realm remained silent. They watched Xu Yuanming swagger in and swagger out, neither daring to be angry nor daring to speak.

They looked at each other, speechless.

After Xu Yuanming left, they entered the Great Realm.

Inside, it was very quiet. Countless billions of living beings were stunned and lay paralyzed on the ground in a daze.

Inside the ancient palace, the Immortal King was unharmed, his memories were fragmented, and his primordial spirit imprint had collapsed.

Beside it was a decree that declared the ambitious goal of soon setting out to conquer the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and to annihilate that Immortal King.

The Celestial Kings sighed, and one of the giants looked towards the Boundary Sea: "Unrivaled throughout history, only this one."

……

……

Xu Yuanming left, but before he departed, he left behind a spiritual imprint.

He returned to the ancient era.

This time, the time that passed was very short, so short that almost nothing changed in this era; time seemed to have been frozen.

Xu Yuanming himself was unaware of how many years he had spent striving for this 'uniqueness'.

Finally!

All the pivotal moments of destiny have been traced back, and all the great power has been gathered into one.

The six secret realms within the body glowed together.

Many years have passed since Xu Yuanming traveled here, and all his past experiences have resurfaced today.

call……

This exhalation seemed to have traversed countless ages, and the destiny in his eyes had pierced through everything.

Xu Yuanming opened his eyes, and an unimaginable power erupted around him.

In an instant, everything was withdrawn, all the strange phenomena dissipated, and before anyone in the world could even sense it, the strange phenomenon had vanished.

His actions were like creating this secret realm, where everything returned to oneness and was integrated into himself.

The seventh secret realm, 'Oneness of All Things' is achieved!

With one step, Xu Yuanming transformed all the great principles of the world into 'one,' no longer the long river of time flowing forth; he simply took a step, and countless stars shone, bathed in heavenly light, as he walked towards the human world.

In the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the Willow Goddess is being besieged by several True Immortals. Just now, in her quest for Nirvana, to break through to the Giant Realm and become an unparalleled being, she was ambushed by two Immortal Kings from the Immortal Realm and ultimately severely injured.

After returning to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, to her surprise, one of the True Immortals she had protected actually wanted to kill her!
Liu Shen had never imagined such a thing, so much so that the moment the other party suddenly appeared, he severely injured her.

Having already been knocked down from the Immortal King realm and still severely injured, she was now ambushed by several True Immortals, leaving her almost in despair.

The feeling of betrayal left Liu Shen feeling dejected; she would rather die in battle than simply pass away.

"It's you!"

Suddenly, a young man slowly emerged from the horizon.

He was as calm as a lake, his long black hair fluttering in the wind, his aura restrained, like an ordinary person.

As Liu Shen's consciousness gradually faded, she looked at the suddenly appearing Xu Yuanming and murmured to herself, "You've broken through to the King Realm?"

Xu Yuanming smiled slightly, pointed his finger, and wiped away all of Liu Shen's injuries, the power of fate flowing through her entire body.

"Go to Nirvana, this is your destiny. Now I will take over the battle."

Those True Immortals could hardly believe their ears when they heard the conversation between the two.

Break the King?

What king?

Immortal King!

Someone broke through the Immortal King realm and became a Quasi-Immortal Emperor?

Xu Yuanming gave them no time at all; in the next moment, they all vanished into nothingness.

He walked like that, yet each step seemed to tread upon the pinnacle of destiny.

How high is the Tao?

Are you as tall as me?

Xu Yuanming strode forward, and no one could stop him. Even if the four Quasi-Immortal Emperors of the Boundary Sea attacked together, he could kill them all!

All things are transformed into one.

All things become one.

All things are originally one.

Fate no longer binds me.

Xu Yuanming is now only one step away from breaking free of his shackles; with a final leap, he will become an Immortal Emperor.

After becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, Xu Yuanming could sense the pinnacle of all heavens. The Dao Ancestor could be considered the limit of a region's myriad worlds.

Theoretically speaking, from the perspective of Heaven and above.

The myriad realms of the heavens can only be considered a barely significant world, while the Immortal Emperor realm, also known as the highest realm of the heavens, is the true upper limit.

However, the specifics are already clear from the examples.

Several decades?

Hundreds of epochs?

No no no...

The existence of an Immortal Emperor in the realm of the End of the Road cannot be measured by eras. In all the heavens and myriad worlds, countless trillions of eras have passed, making it impossible to trace back to the past. The number of people who can become Immortal Emperors is extremely small.

Shi Hao, Ye Fan, and Chu Feng seem to be destined for each other.

Such was their fate, and there was no more regret on the sacrificial path. It is said that even a glance could wither away their destiny.

But why is that?

I can't explain why those things happen on the sacrificial path. Is it because one has gone from the origin to the ultimate and then become what one is?
Theoretically speaking, becoming an Immortal Emperor is already such a feat, and it was even achieved in previous realms.

The fundamental question is: what is destiny?

There is a person who holds everything in his hands, namely the fates of three people, leading them to this state.

In this world, on the path of sacrifice, one is truly invincible, yet fate can still be altered at will, and in the end, one still cannot escape the final cycle.

……

……

On the other side, the Immortal King of the Immortal Tribulation killed a giant, but he was also seriously injured.

He attacked relentlessly without defending, truly achieving the Tribulation of Ten Thousand Immortals, striking fear into the hearts of these immortal kings from other realms, even causing the Crimson King to retreat in fear.

People who fight without regard for themselves and only care about killing the enemy are terrifying.

If it were the Immortal King Wuzhong or the Immortal King Liudao Lunhui, they certainly wouldn't be able to achieve the same level as the Immortal Tribulation Immortal King. However, they also have their own advantages, although they are not as focused on killing one person as the Immortal Tribulation Immortal King.

But they were able to stall for time and injure all the immortal kings.

Unlike the Immortal King of the Immortal Tribulation, where, apart from the deceased giant, almost all the remaining Immortal Kings were unharmed.

“Hahaha…that’s all!”

Immortal King, bathed in the true blood of the giant, became increasingly solid and terrifying. Although he was seriously injured, his aura did not diminish at all; on the contrary, it grew stronger and stronger.

The Crimson King sneered, "You're just at your last gasp. Though you are powerful, you are ultimately just one person. I only need to hold you off until the Immortal Kings from all over arrive. I don't believe I can't surround and kill you..."

"Who said he's a person?"

Before the Crimson King could finish speaking, a young man slowly walked over from a distance.

With each step he took, it was as if the entire world swayed, and all the heavens and myriad realms could not withstand his pace.

Restrained, yet sacred, instinctively terrifying, as insignificant as someone who hasn't entered spiritual practice and looks up at the sky.

"I've seen the heavens... uh..."

The Immortal King looked at the young man before him, unsure how to address him, as both of them were only at the Supreme Realm when they parted.

Back then, I was no match for even a single finger of his, yet I could still see his shadow. Now, it's like the difference between a drop of dew and the ocean.

"Just call me Xu Yuanming."

Xu Yuanming waved his hand, his every move in accordance with the principles of Heaven and the unity of the Great Dao.

The things around him that were destroyed also returned to their original state as he moved.

"Fellow Daoist Xu...you've broken through the King realm and become an Emperor?"

The Immortal King asked in disbelief.

So many years have passed, countless eras, and yet someone has broken through the Immortal King's domain.

He knew Xu Yuanming was strong, but which Immortal King was weak? However, they all spent countless epochs to become Immortal Kings, and some even became giants and supreme beings.

How long did it take Xu Yuanming to finish it?
Hundreds of thousands of years ago, Xu Yuanming suddenly appeared in this era, attended the banquet of the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King, and was invincible among the younger generation. And now?

He is not a Celestial King, nor a True Immortal, but a genuine Quasi-Celestial Emperor!
The immortal kings from the foreign land were dumbfounded. Emperor?
Is this person before me an emperor?!

The Crimson King mobilized all the power in his body, reversing time and eroding into the past, trying to test Xu Yuanming.

However, the moment it made its move, its body began to become ethereal, swallowed up by spacetime, and turned into nothingness.

"Snapped!"

Xu Yuanming snapped his fingers, and the crisp sound echoed throughout the area, causing all the alien creatures to lose themselves in the passage of time.

He looked at the dazed Immortal King and laughed.

"You should go back now. You were originally from this era, but because of my actions, you have been reincarnated in the future. Now, your two bodies are one, but I have condensed your cultivation. I hope you can become an immortal in the mortal world."

After saying that, Xu Yuanming snapped his fingers again.
