Covering the sky: Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body

Chapter 158 The Dead Ancient Tree of Life

The super evolution fluid refined by Dao Yan shimmered with a light that resembled a galaxy, containing the most primordial divine power of the entire universe.

In a daze, the sound of the long river of time rushing and roaring could be heard, and it even contained the power of time.

In a daze, it seemed as if I saw the beginning of creation, when the world was in chaos, from which the aura of immortality was born.

The divine liquid was incomparably brilliant, radiating endless brilliance, causing the heavens and earth to roar and steam.

The divine substances within automatically enter the body and spirit, and the fragrance gives one a feeling of ascending to immortality.

Xiao Ping'an stared in disbelief at the super evolution fluid that Dao Yan had refined.

Dao Yan is only at the third level of Quasi-Emperor, yet he is already able to refine such a divine-level evolution fluid.

"The Fate Stone, the Primordial Fate Stone, the Essence of Chaos, the Netherworld Orchid, the Heart of Death, the pit of the Peaches of Immortality, the branches of the Fusang Divine Tree..."

Xiao Ping'an only took a sniff and was able to discern that it contained so much divine essence.

Dao Yan's luck is just too good!

Xiao Ping'an couldn't help but marvel. Although he would refine some pure soil and some rare materials and put them on the Starry Sky Ancient Road every time it opened, these materials were still very scarce compared to the vast number of peerless geniuses.

Unexpectedly, Dao Yan possessed such great fortune, obtaining so many treasures.

Many things were not arranged by Xiao Ping'an on the Ancient Star Road. Obviously, Dao Yan also obtained many treasures in other places.

Dao Yan was surprised to hear Xiao Ping'an casually rattle off so many materials, and then nodded in admiration.

This seemed to be beyond Dao Yan's expectations, but it was also within his expectations.

After all, Xiao Ping'an in front of him was a celestial being in his eyes.

"I never imagined that the divine evolution fluid you refined would have an effect on people at the level of Supreme Ancient Emperor. Although the effect is not very significant, it shows just how amazing your divine evolution fluid is."

Xiao Pingan couldn't help but praise.

Although this thing was not of much use to him, it was still a valuable source of inspiration for him.

"The thing you've refined seems to achieve the same result as the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, albeit through a different path?" Xiao Ping'an said after sensing it for a while.

Upon hearing this, Dao Yan suddenly recalled that in the mythological era, the legendary Emperor had refined the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, and in considerable quantities.

The Overlord before us is even more powerful. He should also possess the formula for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill and should have personally refined it.

Upon realizing that the person before him had refined the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, Dao Yan immediately became restless, also wanting to receive guidance from the Overlord.

He said respectfully, "I did indeed obtain the recipe for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, but the ingredients were simply too astonishing for me to gather. I borrowed the guiding principles from it, substituted other materials, and combined them with my understanding of alchemy to find my own unique refining method, thus creating the Divine Evolution Liquid."

Xiao Ping'an nodded: "You are indeed a genius in alchemy. The two are similar but different, and the great path leads to the same goal."

"Your research on the divine evolution fluid is truly unprecedented and will never be surpassed."

"Even I found it very inspiring after reading it."

Xiao Ping'an looked at the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill recipe provided by Dao Yan and found that it was actually a fragment and not complete.

Xiao Ping'an sighed again, "Dao Yan couldn't glean so much from just the incomplete Nine Revolutions Elixir Formula."

He then presented Daoyan with a complete recipe for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill.

Dao Yan expressed his gratitude solemnly, and then asked, "Overlord, many people disagree with my path of the Great Dao, saying that I have gone astray and entered a crooked path. I wonder what your views are on alchemy and mechanical ascension?"

Ba Tianzun looked at Dao Yan, and it seemed that Dao Yan was also facing an unsolvable question.

His path was indeed unorthodox, an extremely unorthodox and heretical path. In this world of ascetic cultivation where everyone is self-centered and only the self is supreme, Dao Yan's path was truly unique, which is why he also doubted himself.

Xiao Ping'an said, "In history, there have been people who have refined the heretical path to its extreme. He once refined the array diagram, refined the Four Swords of Zhuxian, and created the Secret of Combining Characters."

Upon hearing this, Dao Yan immediately realized that Xiao Ping'an was referring to Lingbao Tianzun.

Lingbao Tianzun was one of the nine great celestial deities in history, possessing immense power.

I myself have obtained an incomplete version of the character-combining secrets, and I greatly yearn for the complete version.

He also greatly admired the Lingbao Tianzun Formation Diagram and the Four Swords of Zhuxian, and longed to study them.

Unfortunately, according to historical legends, Lingbao Tianzun has already died, and his undying true spirit has transformed into Tongtian Jiaozhu, who has already entered the strange world with the Tianzun Formation Diagram and the Four Swords of Zhuxian, so he can no longer see it even if he wants to.

In Dao Yan's view, if he were to use this set of secret characters and the Heavenly Venerable Array Diagram to re-refine the Golden Armored Giant God, he could definitely make it become an ultimate weapon before he himself had even attained enlightenment.

He has this confidence.

“You should also have the Secret of Character Combination, right? I saw the shadow of the Secret of Character Combination on the Dao patterns of this golden-armored giant god, but unfortunately it is incomplete. I will teach you the complete Secret of Character Combination.”

"Your understanding of alchemy, formations, and mecha crafting demonstrates that you have indeed reached an extremely high level in these unorthodox methods."

"But you should remember one thing: all of these are just appearances; the true path is contained within them."

"This super evolution fluid helps you evolve your physical body and primordial spirit. By personally experimenting with your own body and adjusting the prescription, you gain a deeper understanding of the Great Dao. In fact, this is also a form of cultivation."

"Your understanding of this Super Evolution Fluid is indeed unparalleled, but if you want to pass it on to your descendants, I'm afraid they will find it difficult to comprehend how profound your understanding of the Super Evolution Fluid is."

"They did not personally verify this prescription, and they may end up going astray, pursuing the medicinal effects one-sidedly instead of understanding the profound principles it contains."

Xiao Ping'an thought of the Eternal Kingdom's obsession with the Super Evolution Liquid in the original text. Clearly, the Super Evolution Liquid had gone completely astray after it was passed down to later generations.

Even Dao Yan's son, Dao Yi, abandoned that thing and turned to the orthodox Five Great Secret Realm Cultivation Methods.

This super evolution fluid is like a poison; everyone who uses it is immersed in the illusion of ascending to immortality.

Imagine an ordinary person, or even someone who is incapable of cultivation, whose realm rises drastically after using the Super Evolution Fluid, quickly becoming a top genius. The temptation of this is like a curse for those whose Dao heart is unstable, especially those who have improved their realm without arduous cultivation.

Reaching higher levels in the future will be difficult.

However, Dao Yan, as a pioneer, personally experienced the Great Dao, and in order to experience the Great Dao more deeply, he refined the Super Evolution Fluid.

Instead of frantically pursuing the Super Evolution Fluid and relentlessly pushing their cultivation levels.

The misunderstandings of later generations ultimately led the path of evolution, the Super Evolution Fluid, as as a means of evolution as it was, astray.

Dao Yan nodded repeatedly in response to the guidance of the Overlord.

He was smug about his research on the super evolution fluid, thinking that after returning to the Eternal Kingdom, he would become its ancestor and lead it onto the path of super evolution.

Now that he thinks about it carefully, he realizes that this kind of thing might harm future generations, and he feels that he should be more cautious about spreading the method of refining the super evolution fluid.

Facing the future Dao Yan Emperor, Xiao Ping'an gave him some pointers, which satisfied his curiosity about Dao Yan when reading the original text.

At this moment, Dao Yan was indeed somewhat reserved in front of Xiao Ping'an, after all, the difference in their strength was too great.

After giving some serious instructions, Xiao Ping'an let Dao Yan leave.

. . . .

After gaining some insight here, Dao Yan left the Chaotic Thunder Sea and planned to wander around the edge of the universe before returning to the Eternal Kingdom.

Wealth and honor without returning home is like wearing fine clothes at night.

Even Dao Yan is not immune to worldly customs.

Moreover, having already reached this level of cultivation, he could continue to train on the ancient starry road. However, Dao Yan had been away from home for so many years. Thinking of his ancestor and the treasure he had promised to help him find to prolong his life, he decided to go back and take a look.

Then they can continue their training on the ancient starry road or visit other sources of life.

Although he was supposed to be returning to his hometown, Dao Yan changed his mind halfway through the journey because he encountered an unparalleled genius from the Eternal Kingdom.

Upon hearing that his ancestor had achieved a breakthrough, becoming a powerful Great Sage with an extended lifespan and having obtained some treasures to prolong life, making it no problem for him to live another two thousand years, Dao Yan immediately abandoned his idea of ​​returning to his hometown and once again embarked on the ancient starry road.

He then cultivated to the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor in one go before leaving the Ancient Starry Sky Road.

...In the cold universe, a dazzling golden light streaked across the starry sky. It was an enormous golden-armored giant god, passing through the starry sky, its powerful quasi-emperor aura spreading everywhere, making people tremble with fear.

This is Dao Yan, who has achieved great success in his cultivation. After undergoing the most brutal trials, he has finally reached the realm he has always dreamed of and has finally shown the signs of attaining enlightenment.

He traveled extensively in the desolate wilderness of the universe, covering billions of miles in the blink of an eye; his speed was truly astonishing.

On this day, he arrived at a cosmic starry sky where the essence of heaven and earth was almost exhausted.

In this desolate universe, he suddenly felt something, as if something was calling to him.

After reaching the Dao Yan realm of cultivation, one's understanding of heaven and earth has reached an incredible level. The faint, indistinct call to heaven and earth is something that Dao Yan finds unbelievable.

After scanning the area, he found no one and no traps.

With that in mind, he immediately decided to search the depths of this broken universe.

Soon, he discovered something unusual.

On a shattered planet that had been blown in two, he discovered traces of an ancient supreme being.

Upon seeing this, Dao Yan's spirits immediately lifted. The treasures left behind by the Supreme One must be extraordinary.

The planet exploded, and the supreme inscriptions on it were almost completely worn away. Clearly, there was once a Dark Sovereign here, who died for some unknown reason.

Over countless millennia, the dilapidated array here gradually weakened until it was completely broken, and the things sealed inside began to emit faint wisps of energy.

Fortunately, Dao Yan discovered it; otherwise, it might have been taken advantage of by someone else.

Dao Yan's research into unorthodox and heretical methods has reached its pinnacle. He has even obtained the "Pre-Word Secret" that can predict the future and has cultivated it to an extremely profound level.

He quickly sensed that this should be a good thing; he had no premonition of anything bad.

He looked at the dilapidated formation here. He had already mastered the secrets of character formation, so this kind of thing could not stop him at all.

He casually erased the broken array patterns in front of him.

The formation contained a dilapidated small world, inside which stood a colossal divine tree, hundreds of meters tall, radiating an incredibly rich life force; however, its trunk and leaves had long since withered.

"This is actually an elixir of immortality!"

Dao Yan was greatly surprised. He had once obtained a branch of the Fusang Divine Tree and the pit of the Immortal Peach Divine Medicine, and was very familiar with the aura of the Immortal Medicine.

The withered giant tree before us, standing a hundred meters tall, has lost all life, but the divine essence flowing from it is undoubtedly an elixir of immortality.

This is definitely not some ancient medicine king or demigod medicine.

He could confidently assert that this was absolutely an elixir of immortality.

It turns out that this immortal herb was trapped in this formation. After the Dark Sovereign was killed by some unknown force, the entire world quickly turned into a desolate wasteland.

This immortal elixir, which should have allowed it to fly and disappear, was firmly bound by the supreme formation here and could not escape the planet at all, so it tragically died here.

Dao Yan broke through the broken formation and walked towards the withered giant tree. Looking at the dead tree that had completely lost its life, he felt a pang of heartache and regret.

"This is an elixir of immortality..."

"It's such a pity that he died like that."

In Dao Yan's eyes, light flashed rapidly, and countless runes danced in the air. He stared intently at the tree, scanning it carefully, as if trying to discern something.

After a thorough scan, a look of joy suddenly appeared on his face.

"This immortal herb seems to still have a chance to revive."

Dao Yan dug out the giant tree and carefully examined its roots. Sure enough, deep within the roots, he found a glimmer of undying spiritual light.

Although the entire tree is dead, this undying spirit is contained within a small section of its rootstock.

The root still had a faint trace of iridescent color, and a rosy glow flashed by. Although it looked withered and dead, there might be a chance for it to revive in the future.

If one day he could refine an even higher-level super evolution fluid, he believed he could definitely revive this nearly dead Tree of Life.

He carefully cut off this section of dried root and put it into the super evolution fluid. After nourishing it for a while, he felt that the effect was not obvious, so he put it into his own life spring divine fluid.

This is an immortal herb, and every single one of them is unique.

Now that he had obtained this withered immortal herb, Dao Yan suddenly felt that it was all preordained by fate.

If he hadn't been wandering aimlessly in the chaotic wilderness of the universe, and if he hadn't happened to sense that faint, almost imperceptible call of death's will, he would never have had the chance to obtain this dead elixir of immortality.

Since the Overlord is so optimistic about me and believes that I have the potential to become an Emperor, I will definitely ask the Overlord and the various forbidden zones for different immortal divine medicines and fruits to revive this immortal divine medicine after I achieve enlightenment.

This enormous, hundred-meter-tall ancient tree of life, though devoid of any life force, still exudes an astonishing aura of the Great Dao.

After thinking it over, Dao Yan refined it into a coffin, intending to give it to his ancestor.

Yes, while a coffin may not seem like a suitable gift, it depends on what material it's made of.

Dao Yan also spent some time inside cultivating and comprehending the Dao, experiencing the profound essence of the Dao within, before finally flying out.

If the patriarch didn't like it, he planned to leave it to his descendants or clansmen.

This is definitely a good thing for spiritual practice and enlightenment, or even enough to be kept as a coffin.

After obtaining the dried-up elixir of immortality, Dao Yan traveled through the starry sky for many years before finally flying towards the Eternal Kingdom.

With his cultivation at this level, his travel speed was astonishing, and he quickly returned to the Eternal Starfield.

Looking at the magnificent, massive planet with three smaller stars orbiting around it, Dao Yan was extremely excited.

Just like the complex and excited feelings of a traveler who has been away from home for many years when he sees his hometown.

Dao Yan has lived for two thousand years. In his long life, he has only spent a little over a hundred years in the Eternal Kingdom, but those hundred years were the most relaxed and happy days of his life.

Dao Yan, who originally planned to come back to visit, decided to continue his training on the Ancient Star Road after hearing that his ancestor was still alive and had achieved a breakthrough, because he was worried that his enemies might endanger the people of the Eternal Kingdom.

He is now at the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor, just one step away from triggering the Heavenly Tribulation of Ascension.

As a powerful quasi-emperor, returning to his homeland now can definitely be considered a triumphant homecoming.

Thinking of this, he unconsciously unleashed the divine might of a quasi-emperor, and that terrifying aura enveloped the entire Eternal Starfield.

Rumble.

All life on the planet seemed to be awakened from a deep slumber.

Those with high cultivation levels, upon sensing that familiar aura, all looked with delight into the depths of the starry sky, towards that terrifying figure that resembled a god.

"It's Dao Yan's aura!"

"It's really him!"

"Dao Yan is back!"

"Dao Yan has become a Quasi-Emperor!"

Dao Yan's power is beyond imagination. Searching through the history of the Eternal Starfield, no one can be found who can compare with him.

No one is more powerful than him.

The Sage of Rain Curtain has now become a Great Sage, and his grand-disciple Xia Qiu has also become a Sage.

The two of them watched Dao Yan return with excitement, and a huge weight of worry lifted from their hearts.

Dao Yan watched as one figure after another flew out of the Eternal Planet. Besides a few familiar figures, there were also some saints from other holy lands and aristocratic families.
