Covering the sky: Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body

Chapter 169 Imprisoning the Stone Emperor
Now that the Holy Spirit embryo calls itself the Beginning, everything makes sense.

It turns out that the primordial beginning was indeed the Holy Spirit born from the ancient primordial mine.

Everyone looked at the powerful Tai Chu with expressions of awe.

This is a being known as a Celestial Embryo, who has been gestating for countless millennia before being born. He was born in a state of perfect perfection, and dared to challenge the Stone Emperor as soon as he was born. His strength is truly unfathomable.

Tai Chu emerged from the Tai Chu Ancient Mine, and his strength was astonishing; the aura he exuded alone was enough to send chills down one's spine.

He actually dared to challenge the Stone Emperor.

As the great emperor of his time, the Stone Emperor also had his own pride.

He cannot shirk this challenge, nor can he be cowardly and avoid the battle.

Within the mysterious mythical battlefield, terrifying fluctuations of the Great Dao could be heard, clearly indicating that an earth-shattering battle was taking place.

That must be a battle of gods that hasn't been seen in many years.

Numerous quasi-emperors were intently watching the mythical battlefield, not missing a single detail of the battle.

They also longed to comprehend the divine essence of the Great Dao from that mythical battlefield.

Despite trembling under the pressure of the terrifying fluctuations of the Great Dao, they did not give up their comprehension.

This was a divine war that hadn't been seen in many years. Ever since the Overlord became an immortal, the whole world seemed to have become unusually harmonious, and such a divine war hadn't broken out for tens of thousands of years.

Generally speaking, the battles between quasi-emperors on the ancient starry road are already the limit.

Many quasi-emperors looked at that terrifying aura with great envy. They also wanted to make a leap forward and prove themselves as emperors.

"It's incredible that this Holy Spirit, named Primordial, can challenge the Stone Emperor."

"I wonder how this great battle will end?"

"It's incredible that the Primordial Mine could give birth to such a powerful Holy Spirit."

"This Stone Emperor is so powerful, and he has fused with the Heavenly Heart Mark. This person named Tai Chu is probably going to die."

"Yes, to challenge a contemporary Dao-proving expert, one must have the strength to break the Heavenly Heart Mark and walk the myriad paths of heaven and earth."

Throughout history, even those who attained enlightenment through unconventional means have generally met with a bad end when they attempted to challenge the current emperor who had merged with the Heavenly Heart Mark.

Even those with extraordinary physical strength cannot escape death in the end.

Being born in the same era as the Dao Provers of that time is the tragedy of all the most outstanding talents. Everyone's path to enlightenment is suppressed in this way, and the result of forcibly challenging it can only be a dismal end.

"This Primordial Chaos is so powerful that if it had been born in another era, it would have been able to easily merge with the Heavenly Heart Imprint."

"To be born in this era, isn't that a waste of such a great opportunity?"

"We are all Holy Spirits, why must we kill each other?"

"Hehe, the way you're saying it makes it sound like we humans don't have any feuds with each other. In the end, even among Holy Spirits, there are differences, just like among people, who are all very different."

The numerous quasi-emperors were exchanging information, all of them being extremely careful to conceal it, lest the two of them sense it.

At this moment, the battlefield of mythology was truly a scene of earth-shattering conflict.

Two figures, like gods, battled in the shattered void.

Tai Chu seemed to possess a mysterious power that allowed him to easily break through space and time and strike the Stone Emperor.

The Stone Emperor was indeed very powerful, but the next moment his body exploded.

To everyone's astonishment, the astonishing phenomenon that appeared actually showed that the Stone Emperor was at a disadvantage.

As the emperor of this era, he was actually no match for Tai Chu!

A dazzling light shone, and the Stone Emperor's body instantly returned to normal.

The once arrogant Stone Emperor now looked extremely solemn.

He looked at the even more arrogant figure than himself, at Tai Chu who was radiating a mysterious light, and gripped the Fangtian Halberd tightly.

Tai Chu possessed a black and gold sword with dragon patterns, but as a naturally born ultimate weapon, it exuded an ancient and weathered aura, clearly indicating that it had been conceived for a very, very long time.

"You are not human, but a holy spirit born from the Primordial Ancient Mine!" The Stone Emperor's eyes were filled with disbelief.

"You haven't even fused with the Heavenly Heart Mark yet, so why are you so strong?"

Seeing the fear on Shi Huang's face, Tai Chu smiled faintly.

“That’s right, I am also a Holy Spirit, but my origins are far nobler than yours. I was born in the mysterious and powerful Primordial Ancient Mine!”

"And you, you're just some wild child born in some remote corner, while I am the most beloved treasure of heaven!"

"Why am I so strong? Because my background is inherently superior to yours; you'll never catch up to me!"

"If you hadn't attacked the Primordial Ancient Mine and awakened me, perhaps I would have continued to nurture myself within the Primordial Ancient Mine for a while longer, and perhaps I would have become even stronger."

"At that time, I will have more opportunities to break the Heavenly Heart Mark and walk on the myriad paths of heaven and earth."

"You woke me up prematurely, how are you going to make up for my loss?" Tai Chu looked intently at Shi Huang.

The Stone Emperor's face darkened. The person before him was indeed a Holy Spirit Immortal Embryo nurtured by the Primordial Ancient Mine, possessing such formidable strength.

It was only at the level of its first incarnation, and had not yet truly merged with the Heavenly Heart Mark, yet it could contend with me and even subtly suppress me. It was truly terrifyingly powerful.

This was the first time he had felt the threat of death.

Moreover, he could sense that Tai Chu was cultivating a strange technique that could be practiced even during the gestation period. No wonder he had such great ambitions, actually thinking of breaking through the Heavenly Heart Mark and traversing the myriad paths of heaven and earth.

Although Tai Chu did not truly attain enlightenment, he was able to defeat me so badly simply by virtue of his unconventional path to enlightenment, demonstrating his unfathomable potential.

He could sense that the Primordial One was not born in haste, but had been preparing for countless millennia, just waiting to be born at this time.

But coincidentally, he also attained the Dao and became emperor in this era.

Originally, it would have been easy to break through the Heavenly Heart Mark and traverse the myriad paths of heaven and earth.

Now, it will be difficult to break through the Stone Emperor's Great Dao.

In a sense, it was the Stone Emperor who disrupted the initial plans.

However, it didn't have much impact on Tai Chu. Since Tai Chu said that, it was clear that he wanted to extort the Stone Emperor.

Shi Huang snorted coldly and did not respond to the question.

His eyes were icy cold: "I am the true enlightened one of this world. As long as I am here, no one can attain enlightenment."

"You think you can break my divine mark and trample on my head? You're dreaming."

Although the Stone Emperor was inwardly turbulent, he remained stubbornly defiant.

As the "King of Trolls" in the original text, he once criticized the Ruthless Emperor and Emperor Ye. He was of average strength, but extremely stubborn.

Even though he is clearly losing the battle against Tai Chu, he still acts arrogantly.

"Really? You're really that confident?" Tai Chu showed no change in emotion, still maintaining an extremely confident and smiling demeanor.

It was as if he were facing not a great emperor of the time, but a clown.

When has the arrogant Stone Emperor ever been so humiliated?

With a wave of his hand, the halberd transformed into a jet-black dragon, charging towards Tai Chu.

He threw out both fists as if he wanted to shatter the eternal starry sky.

His scattered blood instantly ignited, burning fiercely and transforming into a crimson sea of ​​flames that enveloped the Primordial Beginning.

This is one of the forbidden supernatural powers created by the Stone Emperor.

This blood is his original essence, one of his trump cards for survival.

It seems that Tai Chu really put the Stone Emperor in a difficult position, forcing him to use this trump card to save his life.

You must understand that this is his life essence, which will really consume his lifespan and vitality, and it is almost impossible to repair it.

Despite the desperate efforts of the Stone Emperor, Tai Chu remained calm and composed, letting the raging flames scorch his body.

Mysterious Dao runes emerged from Tai Chu's body; they were actually immortal runes naturally born from the Tai Chu Ancient Mine.

These immortal runes automatically extinguished the raging flames and even devoured and refined the Stone Emperor's life essence blood; it was truly terrifying.

Stone Emperor frowned, a cold smile appearing on his face as he prepared to unleash another powerful attack.

But the next moment, he suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.

Countless immortal runes and beams of great light burst forth from Tai Chu's body, forcefully extinguishing the terrifying flames.

"It is impolite not to reciprocate. Try my forbidden secret technique," Tai Chu said calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a primordial spirit sword suddenly materialized from the celestial aura between Tai Chu's brows and flew towards the Stone Emperor.

This primordial spirit sword looked ordinary, like a knife and a sword at the same time, yet it seemed to bring down the power of the entire world, firmly locking onto the Stone Emperor's primordial spirit, leaving him with no way to escape.

With a roar, the Stone Emperor swung his halberd, which transformed into a dazzling black dragon, ready to tear apart the primordial spirit sword.

No matter how hard the Stone Emperor tried, he could not escape the pursuit of the primordial spirit sword. An aura of destruction swept over him, blooming from within the Stone Emperor's body.

With a deafening roar, the Stone Emperor shattered.

His body and spirit were reduced to fragments, scattered throughout the universe.

Although it wasn't completely dead, it was indeed smashed into pieces.

Just as it was about to recover, Tai Chu immediately made another move, this time not giving Shi Huang a chance to recover.

The supreme laws of the Great Dao bloomed in his hands, and a mysterious power forcefully sealed the fragments of the Stone Emperor.

Strands of lightning seemed to seal these fragments into different times and spaces, and then gradually eroded them in the terrifying lightning.

Those Great Perfection Holy Spirits who attacked the Primordial Ancient Mine have already quietly left Ziwei Star and even secretly hidden in the Chaos.

They really don't want to get involved in this infighting among the Holy Spirits.

In the eyes of these Holy Spirits, it doesn't matter who you follow, especially since everyone is a Holy Spirit.

In the Holy Spirit lineage, the strong are respected. If the Stone Emperor truly cannot uphold the prestige of the Holy Spirit lineage, then let the Primordial One do so.

Faced with yet another powerful Holy Spirit, these Great Perfection Holy Spirits wisely chose to turn a blind eye and wait for the outcome of the great battle.

People felt the astonishing fluctuations of the Great Dao and the increasingly faint aura of the Stone Emperor, which many found incredible.

The Stone Emperor's aura suddenly erupted, and that terrifying aura shook the heavens and the earth.

People saw an enormous image of the Holy Spirit emerge, truly covering the sky and the sun; it was the figure of the Stone Emperor.

It was as if the Stone Emperor had just awakened from a deep sleep, wanting to break free from the shackles of heaven and earth and ascend to immortality.

The supreme aura shook the heavens and the earth, shattering countless galaxies, and causing all living beings to tremble in fear.

Many people are speculating that the Stone Emperor has unleashed his power.

After such a long battle, he must have figured out everything about the challenger. Now he's going to crush that challenger, that arrogant and ignorant Taichu.

Many holy spirits sensed the supreme aura of the Stone Emperor and could not help but marvel at the strength of the righteous path in this world.

Many powerful figures seemed to think that the Stone Emperor was destined to win.

The Stone Emperor's aura was so powerful and terrifying, and it had fused with the Heavenly Heart Mark. Now that the challenger had dared to be so shameless, the Stone Emperor was clearly going to teach him a lesson.

The faint breath just now was merely a mouse teasing a cat.

Did Tai Chu really think that the Stone Emperor was no longer viable?
People were talking about it, thinking that Taichu had overestimated his abilities.

Throughout history, there have been many instances of people overestimating their abilities and challenging the emperors of their time, only to become laughingstocks in history.

All great battles end with the victory of the contemporary enlightened ones.

Those overconfident challengers all met a disappointing end.

Even if Tai Chu was a powerful being born from the ancient primordial mine, he still had to face reality.

Many people think so.

In particular, one can feel the immense aura of the mythical battlefield, the aura of the destruction of heaven and earth.

People felt countless stars turn to ashes under the fluctuations of the Stone Emperor's Great Dao.

People gazed upon the horrific spectacle of time and space, and admired the courageous challenger, Taichu.

Even if we die after fighting this far, it will be a glorious defeat.

Many people are even preparing to make a good record of this in history and leave it to their descendants.

He warned future generations not to overestimate their abilities and challenge the great emperors of the time, or they would suffer the same fate as Tai Chu, dying and disappearing.

This great battle has been ongoing. People cannot see anything there, but they firmly believe that the Primordial One once had the upper hand, but the Stone King was simply letting him win.

The Stone Emperor will be the ultimate victor.

But is that really the case?

Obviously not.

In the actual battle, the Primordial One defeated the Stone Emperor and gained the upper hand.

He repeatedly shattered the Stone Emperor's body, his entire body radiating an incomparably terrifying aura of the Great Dao and its laws.

Although he has not yet merged with the Heavenly Heart Mark, he can already use the immortal runes in the Primordial Ancient Mine, with the supreme immortal runes flowing around his body.

In the mythical battlefield, fragments of the Stone Emperor's body were enveloped by the immortal runes, being obliterated time and again.

Shi Huang desperately tried to recover his body, and each time he recovered, his breath became weaker.

He's still desperately persisting, refusing to admit defeat.

He became Emperor, the pride of all living beings. In the beginning, he was also the Holy Spirit, but he was a challenger. The Stone Emperor would never allow anyone to be stronger than himself, and he considered himself the Lord of the Holy Spirit.

The Taoist talisman culture served as a cage, enveloping the Stone Emperor and binding him firmly within it.

Like a dog cage, it grew smaller and smaller, relentlessly suppressing the Stone Emperor.

The Stone Emperor's body and primordial spirit shattered time and time again.

Although the Stone Emperor is not dead yet, his condition is really bad.

At this moment, the Stone Emperor's body and primordial spirit were desperately unleashing numerous forbidden secret techniques, causing his flesh and blood to become radiant.

These are all the Stone Emperor's innate divine abilities, divine arts bestowed upon him by Heaven.

Rumble.

An endless surge of power and the mighty laws of the Dao erupted, unleashing the most terrifying divine battle.

Incredibly intense lightning descended, turning the area into a sea of ​​thunder, intent on reducing the Stone Emperor to ashes.

The Stone Emperor had used all his forbidden secret techniques, but he still could not break free of the cage's shackles, nor could he drag Tai Chu to his death.

Finally, the Stone Emperor erupted.

He finally broke down that cage by self-destructing.

He chanted mysterious incantations, as if they were the most vicious curses in history.

Faced with the Stone Emperor's curse, Tai Chu raised an eyebrow, then his face was full of disdain.

"I am the son of God, His favorite. Do you think such a curse will work on me?"

Tai Chu looked surprised; he hadn't expected the Stone Emperor to pull this stunt.

This curse might be terrifying to other creatures, but to the Holy Spirit it's a joke.

"Why bother with him? Let's just capture him and imprison him inside my body."

A cold laugh rang out; it was the weapon deity of the Bronze Immortal Palace.

It turns out that the Bronze Immortal Palace had been watching this great battle for too long and couldn't resist coming over to take a look.

Seeing how weak and confused the Stone Emperor was, he actually started using some kind of curse.

Tai Chu looked at the Stone Emperor, whose Dao Heart had been shattered, and his hands kept drawing, unleashing countless Dao runes that flew into the Stone Emperor's body.

The stone emperor was firmly imprisoned.

The portals of the Bronze Immortal Palace opened, automatically sucking the Stone Emperor inside.

The Stone Emperor was thus imprisoned in the Bronze Immortal Palace.

"That damned Stone Emperor, let's just kill him and be done with it." Huangta also rushed over.

"Yes, daring to offend our Primordial Ancient Mine is truly courting death." Surprisingly, the bewildered Chaos Azure Lotus also came, having accompanied the Desolate Tower.

The Bronze Immortal Palace contained countless immortal runes, which transformed into dense immortal chains. Together with the primordial Dao runes, they firmly bound the Stone Emperor.

If the Chaos Celestial Venerable wanted to kill the Stone Emperor, he certainly could.

However, Tai Chu still wanted to break the Heavenly Heart Mark and use his head as a stepping stone to prove his Dao, so he decided to spare his life for the time being.

With his current strength, if he were to wield a celestial weapon, he could indeed kill the Stone Emperor.

After all, he has already reached the point of attaining enlightenment through unconventional means, and with the meticulous guidance of the Overlord, it is not surprising that his strength is astonishing.

In the original text, the Stone Emperor was killed by Ye Fan, who achieved enlightenment through unconventional means.

At this moment, however, he was forcibly captured by the powerful Tai Chu and imprisoned in the Bronze Immortal Palace.

While Tai Chu certainly didn't possess Ye Fan's strength, dealing with the Stone Emperor at this moment was no problem for him.

It was all because Tai Chu used the Heaven-Mending Technique taught to him by Ba Tian Zun to accumulate an incredibly profound foundation, which is why he was able to rival Shi Huang and defeat him as soon as he was born.

Of course, the Bronze Immortal Palace and the Desolate Tower deserve much credit for this.
