Covering the sky: Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body

Chapter 148 The Demonic Man Dongfang Taiyi
Di Que and the Fighting Saint Emperor stood atop the Heavenly Heart Mark, amidst a vast, chaotic expanse, shrouded in mist and ever-changing phenomena.

After they stabilized their Dao Fruits, that flawless aura spread throughout the entire universe.

The two opened their eyes, their gazes tearing through the starry sky.

Ignoring the cheers and congratulations from space, the two exchanged a glance and then disappeared.

Just when everyone thought the two had entered the mythical battlefield for a great battle, they discovered that they could no longer find their presence.

. . .

The mountain of immortality.

This pitch-black mountain range has descended upon the eastern wilderness of the Big Dipper.

It has become one of the most famous restricted areas in the Big Dipper.

This is because not only are there immortal emperors and overlords here, but ancient emperors also stay here from time to time.

No matter how the world changes, Mount Undying stands proudly, a forbidden zone that commands utmost reverence.

On this day, two beams of divine light descended from the sky and landed in the Undying Mountain.

These are the legendary Di Que and the Fighting Saint Emperor.

They entered the Undying Mountain, where they saw the Enlightened Ancient Tea Tree and also the figure of the Overlord.

This person possessed an aura of longevity that was even stronger than that emanating from the elixir of immortality.

He truly deserves to be called a legendary immortal.

Di Que and Dou Zhan Sheng Huang stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

"Meet Tyrant Lord!"

Xiao Ping'an, standing under the ancient tea tree, slowly opened his eyes. At this moment, he returned to his original simplicity, appearing with an air of otherworldly grace.

"No need for formalities, you two please sit down as well."

Then, a wooden tray, or rather a futon, made from the ancient tea tree of enlightenment appeared in front of each of them.

"Thank you, Overlord!"

"We are able to stand on the Heavenly Heart Mark and tread the myriad paths of heaven and earth this time thanks to the Heavenly Overlord for suppressing the Heavenly Heart Mark."

"If it weren't for the Heavenly Venerable's support, we would never have been able to simultaneously set foot on the Heavenly Heart Mark."

It turned out that everyone's guess was correct; it really was the Overlord who intervened and helped them suppress the backlash of the Heavenly Heart Mark.

Therefore, the moment they attained the status of Emperor, they came to visit the Overlord.

When Xiao Ping'an read the original text, he felt that the two were a pity, and since neither of them had launched any dark rebellion, they were ancient emperors who were worth saving.

Therefore, even though the two did not reach the strength of the Emperor, Xiao Ping'an still secretly helped them.

Both of them attained enlightenment and became emperors in this era.

The Fighting Saint Emperor in the original text died early after attaining the status of Emperor.

This Di Que did not attain the Dao and become an emperor until the later stages of the story of Shrouding the Heavens.

Now that I have the ability to help them, I'll lend a hand.

I think these two are quite promising talents.

Xiao Ping'an felt that he could lend a hand to any ancient emperor or supreme being who had not launched a dark upheaval.

Of course, Xiao Ping'an is neither a saint nor their babysitter. He can help if he wants to, and no one can hold him hostage.

Now that these two have attained the Dao and become emperors, they naturally know immediately what has happened in this world.

They sensed that the Overlord had made a move.

If it weren't for the intervention of the Overlord, both of them might have been in serious trouble, or even faced life-threatening situations.

Xiao Ping'an smiled: "I saw that you two are promising talents, and I originally thought to let nature take its course. Even if you cannot become emperors in this life, you can leave it to future generations. But this was just a whim, so I did it on a whim and created a wonderful story."

Although Xiao Ping'an spoke casually, both the Fighting Saint Emperor and Di Que knew that this was not something that just anyone could do.

"Thank you, Overlord!"

"If you ever need our help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."

Xiao Ping'an nodded. These two people were quite reasonable. Although he didn't ask for anything in return and they might not be able to help him in the future, he was very satisfied with their attitude.

The two then consulted the Heavenly Venerable of the Mortal Realm about the techniques, and then left.

In the days that followed, although the two fought each other from time to time, they maintained peace in the world.

They suppressed all the demons and monsters, and even some of the dark sovereigns who were eager to make a move dared not show their faces.

The mythical battlefields of this era were probably the period with the most frequent warfare.

People could sense the astonishing fluctuations of the Great Dao emanating from the mythical battlefield from time to time. Clearly, it was the two emperors of the era battling there.

Especially the Fighting Saint Emperor, he really can't stay idle.

He follows the path of the Immortal Warrior; if he doesn't fight for three days, he gets itchy all over.

Especially his old comrade-in-arms, Di Que, was his best sparring partner, so he spent most of his time seeking out this old friend to fight and spar.

Every time they fought, the heavens and earth trembled, shaking the world.

Actually, everyone is very curious why the Fighting Saint Emperor, who loves fighting so much, has never provoked the Overlord.

Later, rumors began to circulate that the Overlord Heavenly Venerable had sent the Fighting Saint Emperor flying with just one finger, and that it took him a hundred years of arduous cultivation to heal the wounds to his Great Dao.

Moreover, this was only because the Overlord held back and showed mercy.

This news shows that the power of the Overlord has already reached an incredible level.

His strength has far surpassed that of the Fighting Saint Emperor.

. . . .

Big Dipper.

Today, the Beidou human race is at its peak. Throughout the ancient era, they did not suffer any bullying as described in the original text. Instead, they were full of vitality and prosperity.

Those ancient beings and demons were instead suppressed by the human race.

Even though one ancient emperor after another attained the Dao and became emperor, and moved their people to the Big Dipper, they still could not gain an absolute advantage.

After all, the human race has the Overlord Heavenly Venerable, a true immortal who is in charge. Who would dare to bare their teeth at the human race?
On this day, in the Eastern Wilderness, in that vast, desolate land, a barbarian genius dressed in animal skins appeared, whose talent for cultivation was astonishing.

Even more surprisingly, he possessed great fortune, obtaining both the Taiyin True Scripture and the Taiyang True Scripture simultaneously.

He couldn't resist and actually practiced two completely different scriptures at the same time.

Two conflicting scriptures.

This cultivation was extraordinary. At the beginning, it was incredibly powerful, but as its cultivation level became higher and higher, people finally realized that something was wrong.

He himself realized that something was wrong.

One of his eyes reflected the sun, and the other the moon, making him appear extremely eerie.

However, his body exuded a chaotic yet powerful and invincible aura.

He seemed to have lost his mind, leaving a trail of destruction in his wake, and countless ancient creatures and demons perished in his wake.

Fortunately, his body instinctively avoided the human settlements.

This barbarian, who had cultivated the Sun Scripture and the Moon Scripture, was seen roaring across the Big Dipper all day long, acting crazy and cursing.

However, his strength was unbelievably powerful, and countless people were no match for him.

He especially enjoys eating powerful creatures. As long as they are not human, he will try every means to obtain their flesh and blood, and even devour them completely.

Many powerful individuals avoided him at all costs.

He also became a notorious demon, originally named Dongfang Taiyi, but almost no one mentions him anymore.

In the original text, it was the Great Sage in the Ten Thousand Dragons' Nest who personally took action, wielding an ultimate weapon, and forcibly suppressed him while his mind was in chaos. After sealing him up, he wanted to extract the True Scripture of the Sun and the True Scripture of the Moon from him.

As a result, Dongfang Taiyi was fortunate enough to live to the next generation, and with Ye Fan's help, he became one of the "fake emperors".

While Ba Tianzun was comprehending the Dao, he happened to notice Dongfang Taiyi, so he casually pointed out some Taiji Dao to him and then threw him onto the Starry Sky Ancient Road.

In this day and age, with two emperors standing side by side, Dongfang Taiyi should forget about proving himself as emperor.

However, once he is sealed away, as long as he comprehends the Way of Tai Chi and integrates Yin and Yang, he will one day be able to attain the Dao and become an emperor.

Dongfang Taiyi is also a human genius worth nurturing. With proper training, he might become an ordinary human emperor.

With the Heavenly Venerable's secret guidance in this life, Dongfang Taiyi should not be too weak in this era.

Whether he chooses to be sealed away until the era of Ye Fan, or avoids the time of the Fighting Saint Emperor and waits until the Ancient Era to prove his Dao, it is up to him to choose.

. . . .

On this day, the Overlord, who was cultivating and comprehending the Dao, suddenly sensed something and abruptly opened his eyes.

Two beams of purple light tore through the starry sky and looked toward Kunlun, Earth.

The aura of the Underworld Lord was actually present there. In the Kunlun Secret Realm, Mount Kunlun stood proudly, while Mount Ninety-Nine Dragons had long since been relocated to the Kunlun Secret Realm by the Undying Emperor.

At this moment, the place became incredibly dazzling, exuding an aura of celestial beings ascending from the mortal realm, or dragons soaring into the heavens.

The ancient planet Earth, which was not sealed away, is currently in the primordial era. The entire planet is enormous, with towering mountains everywhere.

Around the Kunlun Mountains, there are even clusters of stars.

Anyone looking at Earth at this moment will have an incredible feeling.

That supreme aura seemed to have surpassed even the ultimate divine power.

Within the Kunlun Secret Realm, one after another, great dragons appeared, as if they were stirring something.

An endless chaos engulfed the area, preventing others from exploring it.

As one of the sacred mountains that are the origin of the universe, Kunlun Mountain is indeed mysterious and powerful.

Back then, Xiao Ping'an personally buried the Underworld Lord here.

"I never imagined that in this day and age, the Lord of the Underworld would actually be born."

"This ancient era is about to end, and the entire world will inevitably suffer another blow from the will of Heaven."

"It's really not the right time for the Underworld Lord to try his hand at this early stage."

"I don't want the Reincarnation Seal to be broken by the Heavenly Blade, and all the Reincarnation Seals I've worked so hard to accumulate will be for nothing."

"Let's go take a look and see."

With that thought in mind, Ping An took a step forward and rushed towards the ancient star.

Today, the dragon vein of Kunlun Mountain is very complete, and the ninety-nine dragon mountains that were moved away back then have long been moved back.

The entire Kunlun Mountains possess extraordinary scenery, with countless dragon veins devouring the essence of chaos from the cosmos, nourishing the entire Kunlun Secret Realm.

Because the essence of heaven and earth is not drawn from the earth itself, the earth at this time resonates with the great Dao and the essence of heaven and earth flows freely, making it extremely suitable for cultivation.
Deep within the dragon veins of the Kunlun Mountains, at the very depths of the earth, lies a coffin buried.

After being nourished for millions of years, even a dead body may become sentient.

Even a skeleton can be reborn with flesh and blood.

Of course, the premise is that it doesn't attract attention and can withstand millions of years.

Remembering his promise to the Underworld Lord, Xiao Ping'an came here.

From the depths of this dragon vein, a mysterious and unpredictable aura emanated outwards, accompanied by countless mysterious rays of light.

Deep inside, there was an ordinary-looking yellow mud coffin, slowly rising upwards.

Upon reaching the ground, the coffin lid opened automatically with a loud bang.

In the blink of an eye, endless dragon energy and endless chaotic energy emanated, shimmering and swirling, as if ascending to heaven.

Countless astonishing phenomena appeared around him, including the True Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, and Teng Snake, as if all kinds of powerful immortal spirits were protecting him.

Just then, a fat Taoist priest crawled out from inside. He looked at this unfamiliar world with a blank expression.

Then his body automatically grasped a piece of jade next to him, and a mysterious light flowed towards the fat man's brow.

Soon the fat man went from being confused to becoming clear-headed, and finally woke up completely.

"Haha, I'm alive again..."

"So I am the infamous Underworld Lord from the end of the mythological era..."

"What are those other Heavenly Venerables and Ancient Emperors compared to me...?"

"But those who aspire to transcend the mortal realm and become immortals..."

At this moment, the Lord of the Underworld quickly collected all the treasures he had placed in the coffin.

Then he hid all the treasures in his ear, where there was a small bowl, and he hid all the treasures in that small bowl.

Because after a while, he will relinquish all his cultivation and memories and truly begin his reincarnation and rebirth.

Just as the Underworld Lord was about to sever all cultivation and memories, he suddenly sensed someone above his head.

He immediately felt a chill run down his spine and dodged away like a rabbit. When he saw the figure, he was stunned.

A bloodcurdling scream was heard, so piercing and heart-wrenching.

"How come you're still alive? Impossible! You haven't become a ghost, have you? I didn't dig up your grave, so don't blame me..."

Xiao Ping'an looked at this Underworld Lord, whose whole body was full of lewdness and who looked like a complete clown, which was really speechless.

And this is still the brother of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor.

Although the Underworld Lord cannot unleash the power of a supreme expert, his physical body is still that of an ancient emperor, and he has not yet eradicated everything.

As for his primordial spirit, it is extremely sharp.

They quickly realized something was wrong; the Overlord in front of them was actually still alive.

"You're still alive? That's really uncanny."

"You clearly didn't cut yourself once, so how did you live for millions of years?"

Faced with the Mingzun's face full of doubt, Xiao Ping'an smiled slightly: "My Red Dust Immortal Method and Red Dust Immortal Theory are correct."

“I have been following the established path of immortality in the mortal world.”

"In comparison, your path to immortality in the mortal world will take a very long time."

After hearing this, the Lord of the Underworld sighed repeatedly.

"The Overlord is truly incredible."

"My path to immortality in the mortal world is far too difficult. Each cycle of reincarnation takes hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, and various unforeseen circumstances may arise during this time, which could interrupt my progress and cause me to fail at the last minute."

"In comparison, your path to immortality in the mortal world is truly astonishing."

The Underworld Lord sensed the several reincarnation seals within his body and revealed a satisfied smile.

"Although my path of reincarnation takes less time than yours, I can proceed step by step. One day, I too will ascend to immortality. This is my path to the Great Dao, and it will never change." The Underworld Lord rarely showed such a solemn expression.

Xiao Ping'an nodded: "Your path is indeed a good one, and I think it can definitely be successful. According to my calculations, the time it takes for you to form the Reincarnation Seal will become shorter and shorter, and the time required will decrease as time goes on."

"Although it may take a long time at the beginning, you will catch up quickly later, so don't worry."

Having read the original text, Xiao Ping'an naturally knew that the Underworld Lord was walking very steadily on this path.

Therefore, he had no interest in interrupting the transformation of the Underworld Lord, nor was there any need to guide him to transform using his own method of mortal transformation. The Underworld Lord could simply transform according to his own ideas.

The Underworld Lord carefully sensed the aura emanating from the Overlord, and finally couldn't help but say, "The life force within you is so rich, it's like an immortal elixir."

"You've survived all these years without even cutting yourself; could you have truly become an immortal?"

"You became an immortal so quickly? That's unbelievable."

Xiao Pingan smiled.

"Lord of the Underworld, you probably can't understand my path to the Great Dao, because there are some things that I don't understand why either."

"I have indeed become an immortal."

"It was in this world that I encountered an incredible tribulation to become an immortal. This tribulation to become an immortal, which should not have appeared in this world, appeared here," Xiao Ping'an said with a smile.

Although the Lord of the Underworld had a premonition, he was still somewhat dumbfounded when it was confirmed.

Some were even in a daze, finding it hard to believe.

In the end, all my words can be summed up in one sentence: "The Heavenly Overlord's skill is beyond the reach of creation; I admire him greatly!"

The Lord of the Underworld has successfully come back to life.

This time, the corpse's spiritual communication was rather special; before he severed everything, it still manifested as the original soul of the Underworld Lord.

After he has slain everything, the newborn soul will take over his body and begin his cultivation anew.

His body was also broken and then rebuilt, as if everything was reborn.

Then, under the yearning gaze of the Underworld Lord, Xiao Ping'an described in detail the tribulation he had undergone to become an immortal.

He told him that he hadn't expected it either, because the appearance of this tribulation to become an immortal was completely unbelievable and unexpected.

If we had been prepared in advance, perhaps we wouldn't have had to go through such a difficult ordeal.

Xiao Ping'an also told him that although the tribulation to become an immortal was terrifying, it wasn't that terrible.

As long as you undergo the transformation step by step, you will definitely be able to easily overcome the tribulation with an overwhelming advantage.

The Underworld Lord, of course, didn't listen to Xiao Ping'an's somewhat boastful words, but he couldn't help but think to himself: The tribulation to become an immortal is not something that just anyone can encounter.

Xiao Ping'an then recounted his path of transformation to the Underworld Lord. This wasn't because he was foolish enough to deliberately leak his information, but because there were simply too few people in this world who could communicate with him.

He has always felt a sense of loneliness, the kind of loneliness that comes with being a master.

And this old ghost of the underworld, who has lived from the era of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor to the present day, a person who has been destroyed and rebuilt, is undoubtedly one of the people he can communicate with.

The key is to be open and honest with others.
