Covering the sky: Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body

Chapter 270 Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei attained enlightenment on the same day

Chaos Celestial Venerable continued his journey aboard a black paper boat.

A booming sound of the Great Dao came from ahead, as if it could instantly put people into a state of enlightenment.

Ahead lay an incredibly lush forest; upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a series of planets from which towering trees had grown.

The entire planet floated there like a flowerpot.

Clearly, these planets combined form an amazing formation.

Countless essences of heaven and earth converge here, nourishing these countless forests.

Chaos Celestial Venerable could sense that at the very center, all the myriad paths of heaven and earth surged like a tide.

"It seems that this is where the Tree of Ten Thousand Paths is located."

Chaos Celestial Venerable continued his journey aboard a black paper boat and came across a towering tree that was a thousand meters tall.

The leaves rustled like the sounds of the Great Dao, the bark resembled dragon scales, and the tree was covered with dense fruits, perfectly corresponding to the myriad paths of heaven and earth.

Each fruit contains a different fundamental principle.

This Myriad Paths Tree can be cultivated into the World Tree, or it can be used as a seed for the Ancient Immortal Technique.

If it can be incorporated into the body to grow, it can help practitioners comprehend the myriad principles of heaven and earth.

Chaos Celestial Venerable piloted the black paper boat and charged straight ahead.

Rumble.

The seemingly powerful restriction vanished instantly.

The entire tree was uprooted by the Chaos Celestial Venerable and placed into his body.

The Chaos Celestial Venerable did not leave immediately, but instead began his transformation and sublimation within the Heavenly Wood Ruins.

The Tree of Myriad Paths invoked the myriad rules of heaven and earth, and for a moment, the Great Dao Heavenly Sound resounded within the body of the Chaos Celestial Venerable.

Chaotic mist emerged, almost merging with the Myriad Dao Tree, which was then branded with the unique mark of the Chaotic Celestial Venerable.

An endless aura of the Great Dao emanated from the body of the Chaos Celestial Venerable, flowing like water.

Tens of thousands of fruits radiated divine light within his body.

The World Tree was deeply rooted in every cell of his body, and its branches and leaves had also spread throughout his body.

The aura of heaven and earth permeated his body.

The body of the Chaos Celestial Venerable radiated boundless divine light, so dazzling.

The Chaos Body itself possesses the characteristic of integrating the myriad paths of heaven and earth. In an instant, the Chaos Celestial Venerable seemed to have transformed into the Tree of Myriad Paths.

The Myriad Dao Trees growing in this Immortal Realm are far more powerful than the Heavenly Heart Mark in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Chaos Celestial Venerable quickly entered a deep state of enlightenment.

. . . .

Nine heavens and ten earths.

Since Gu Xin'ao became Emperor, tens of thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In every place where life originates, the Great Way is not revealed, and geniuses wither away.

The number of exceptional talents born in various cradles of life is decreasing.

However, in this era of declining Dharma, two unparalleled geniuses were unexpectedly born, and they were even geniuses with the potential to become great emperors.

In the Central Continent of the Big Dipper, two peerless geniuses, Gai Jiuyou and Zhonghuang Xiang Yufei, were born at almost the same time.

The Central Plains Extraordinary Talents Bureau was also established in this era.

The Ancient Starry Road has also been opened.

Although there are not many exceptional geniuses qualified to embark on the Ancient Star Road, the gathering of numerous geniuses from the source of life throughout the universe has made the Ancient Star Road flourish once again.

Many people don't understand why we would open the Ancient Star Road in this era.
Why not open the ancient starry road again ten thousand years later, when the path to immortality through the Big Dipper is opened?
At this moment, in the Central Plains' Qishi Mansion, one powerful figure after another was teleported from other places and flew towards the martial arts arena.

It turns out that today is the day of the first duel between two unparalleled geniuses from the Central Plains of the Big Dipper Star: Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei.

The Central Plains is a vast and resource-rich land, a land of outstanding people and talents, and has produced countless geniuses since ancient times.

The Eastern Wilderness gave birth to the Great Emperor Wushi, the Ruthless Empress, and the Holy Body Emperor Hua Wuque.

This makes Zhongzhou always feel inferior to Donghuang when compared with it.

But in this era, people feel a clear difference.

Two leading figures emerged in Zhongzhou during this era, completely overwhelming the peerless geniuses of the entire Big Dipper.

No one is stronger than them.

Their talent for cultivation has also been recognized by many holy lands and aristocratic families.

Their first clash attracted many powerful figures to watch.

Even the holy masters of many holy lands and noble families have come.

Those opponents that Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei had defeated were now even more eager for something to happen.

The crowd was enormous, and even a saint secretly came here.

Rumble.

The great battle began, and terrifying killing intent and energy storms permeated the area.

Suddenly, a melodious voice echoed from the raging battlefield.

Many people, upon hearing that sound, would collapse to the ground as if drunk, completely entranced and deeply immersed in a dreamlike state.

In that battlefield, the young Gai Jiuyou stood in the void, his eyes gleaming with brilliant light.

He seemed to be standing in another time and space, as if he were not in the same world as everyone else. He played the Nine Netherworld Melody, a divine prelude that belonged only to him.

It allowed itself to control the great principles of heaven and earth, which was terrifying.

His opponent, Emperor Xiang Yufei, possessed a profound and unwavering aura, as steady as Mount Tai, and was completely unaffected by the Heavenly Sound of the Great Dao.

His attacks, seemingly ordinary, were actually powerful, balanced, and had a magical quality to them.

The myriad paths of heaven and earth, as well as the countless stars in the sky, seemed to operate under his command.

Heaven and earth resonate with it.

That invincible power was astonishing.

No wonder many people have exclaimed that the two of them have the potential to become emperors; now it seems that their reputation is well-deserved.

Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei clashed, creating a devastating explosion.

It took a long time for the terrifying energy storm to dissipate.

Two disheveled figures appeared there, clearly evenly matched, neither able to gain the upper hand.

The two, who had been so aggressive, now looked like long-lost friends, their faces full of admiration.

"It's been a long time since I've had such an exhilarating battle."

"After we successfully sever our path, we will continue the great battle."

After exchanging a few words, the two quickly left the training ground.

They then ventured deep into the Central Plains' Qishi Mansion.

Then a sage from the Temple of Extraordinary Talents came out and invited the two to discuss profound mysteries and the Dao.

Together they entered a sacred place deep within the Qishi Mansion, a place that the Overlord had created and given to them.

As an important part of the ancient starry road, Xiao Ping'an attaches great importance to the Qishi Mansion.

In this pure land, the sounds of the Great Dao resound, seemingly unaffected by the external world.

Here, they also met several other saints from the Qishi Palace.

These sages all possessed extraordinary presence.

They are not ancient people sealed away, but saints who emerged in this difficult era.

Although they have entered their later years, they have no intention of sealing themselves away, but continue to contribute to the Qishi Mansion.

The sect leader of Qishi Mansion said, "I never imagined that in this era, our Central Continent would produce two peerless geniuses like you."

"It's a pity that in this age when the Great Dao is not revealed, geniuses are dwindling, and there aren't enough strong individuals to hone your skills."

After listening to the words of the Qishi Mansion Master, Gai Jiuyou said confidently, "So what if the Great Dao is not right? I will break the shackles of heaven and earth and defy the heavens to prove the Dao."

Gai Jiuyou's Dao Heart was so firm that even though everyone thought it was almost impossible for anyone to become an Emperor in this era, he remained full of confidence.

After listening, the sages nodded in satisfaction.

Gai Jiuyou did indeed possess great confidence, but to prove oneself as an emperor, confidence alone is not enough, so they didn't say much more.

The head of the Qishi Mansion continued, "As you have probably heard, the opening of the Beidou Immortal Ascension Path is less than ten thousand years away."

Xiang Yufei nodded: "Yes, it's practically an open secret."

However, the fact that it was less than 10,000 years away from being opened was still beyond Xiang Yufei's expectations.

In other words, if one were to attain the Dao and become an Emperor in this era, even without taking the elixir of immortality, one could live until the path to immortality opened.

The sect leader said, "Things are different now than they used to be."

"If you want to compete for a spot to become an immortal, even ordinary Great Emperors and Ancient Sovereigns are probably not good enough."

"There are so many Great Perfection Saints in this world who are eyeing the path to immortality. When the path to immortality opens, they will be the most competitive ones."

"At that time, the children of the ancient emperors who survived from different eras will also compete together."

"That time will surely be the most glorious and magnificent era." "If you stay in that era, you will surely grow rapidly in the fiercest competition, and perhaps you will become even more powerful than you are now in proving your Dao."

Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei originally thought they were being guided, but now they realize that they were actually meant to be sealed away and reborn ten thousand years later to compete in that true golden age.

Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei fell into deep thought.

Clearly, the Qishi Mansion also placed high hopes on them, not wanting them to waste their time in this era when the great path was not clear, but hoping that they would truly shine in that golden age.

In short, the sage of Qishi Mansion did not believe that these two could attain the Dao and become emperors in this era.

After some thought, Gai Jiuyou said solemnly, "Thank you, senior. I do not intend to seal it away. I want to forcibly prove the Dao in this era when the Great Dao is not yet manifest."

"Even if I am unable to compete with those Great Perfection Holy Spirits who have transformed into the Third Incarnation ten thousand years later, I will still try to prove the Way in this era."

"As for what will happen on the path to immortality, no one knows the specifics."

"Moreover, the Overlord, the Undying Emperor, and the Chaos Lord have already set the best example for us."

Even if you can't enter the Immortal Realm, you can still ascend to immortality in this mortal world.

"If I cannot enter the Immortal Realm, I will follow the example of the Overlord and others and strive to ascend to immortality in the mortal world."

Everyone was surprised to hear that Gai Jiuyou had actually compared himself to Ba Tianzun.

Although they were confident in their invincibility, they never thought they could compare to this legendary immortal king.

After all, it is a myth that lives on in everyone's hearts.

The many sages remained silent. After a long time, one of them said, "Gai Jiuyou is truly a man of great ambition. I hope you will realize your dream soon."

Then, they looked at Xiang Yufei.

At this moment, Xiang Yufei seemed to have something difficult to say and was unable to make a decision.

The sect leader clearly already knew about Xiang Yufei's situation, and said with a solemn expression, "Xiang Yufei, it seems you have no better choice than to seal him away."

"You are born with a destiny to die young; you are destined to die before the age of twenty."

"If we want to survive, the only way is to seal it up as soon as possible; perhaps there will be a glimmer of hope."

“Our Qishi Mansion has a method to defy fate and change destiny. We have also heard that the Buddhist sect in the Western Desert has a longevity lock that Amitabha Buddha personally crafted, which is left for a destined person.”

"If you can obtain this Longevity Lock, and with the Heaven-defying Fate-altering method of our Qishi Mansion, it will surely help you reverse life and death and escape your inevitable fate."

Gai Jiuyou looked at this opponent who was evenly matched with him and was somewhat speechless.

Unexpectedly, the person who fought so fiercely with him turned out to be a born cripple.

With such a short lifespan, he was a person without a future.

Xiang Yufei ultimately accepted the advice of the Sage of Qishi Mansion.

As for Gai Jiuyou, he reaped numerous rare and precious treasures.

He accepted the kindness of the Qishi Mansion.

After all, Gai Jiuyou's background was very humble, and without enough powerful people to protect him, he might have died halfway through his journey.

The overtures from the Qishi Mansion undoubtedly helped him solve a major problem.

Accompanied by the sage of Qishi Mansion, Xiang Yufei arrived at Mount Sumeru.

This supreme Buddhist Pure Land gathers boundless power of faith.

Golden light flowed, sacred and divine.

Soon a high-ranking monk came to greet them.

Before they even reached the top of Mount Sumeru, they gave them the Longevity Lock directly.

"Amitabha Buddha, this treasure has been waiting for you for a long time!"

Xiang Yufei opened the treasure box, and saw purple divine light dancing around him, making him feel as light as if he had been reborn.

Furthermore, the boundless power of faith was silently blessing him, making him feel completely comfortable.

Xiang Yufei never expected that the thing that the Buddhist Emperor casually crafted back then would eventually benefit him.

Xiang Yufei expressed his sincere gratitude.

. . .

In a mysterious, desolate mountain wilderness in the Central Plains, a place where dragons soar and immortals fly was found.

Xiang Yufei plans to settle here.

It will be born again after ten thousand years.

With the longevity lock around his neck, he was reluctantly parting ways with his beloved woman.

At that moment, an incomparably handsome man appeared on the mountain peak.

His eyes shone like a galaxy, and he exuded an aura of utmost mystery.

It was the Immortal Emperor.

At this moment, his hands were constantly drawing lines, and a mysterious aura of the Great Dao was flowing through them.

Just as Xiang Yufei was about to be buried, he suddenly burst into flames, as if he were about to turn into ashes.

Just when people thought he was completely dead, Xiang Yufei miraculously rose from the ashes.

Xiang Yufei did not die; it was the Immortal Emperor who intervened and helped him break free from the deathly tribulation.

After the news of Xiang Yufei's untimely death spread, just as people were lamenting his passing, news came that Xiang Yufei had come back to life.

Like Gai Jiuyou, Xiang Yufei, who had achieved the status of a king by severing his own path, also embarked on the ancient road through the starry sky.

The two of them made rapid progress and quickly entered the realm of sainthood.

In this age when the true path is obscured, to become a sage at such a rapid pace is truly astonishing.

The two honed their skills against each other, rose against all odds, and fought their way from the Big Dipper to the ancient road in the starry sky.

It has created countless legends.

Although some exceptional talents have gradually embarked on the ancient path of the stars, they are far inferior to these two.

The two of them swept through the ancient starry sky, becoming invincible and forcefully ascending to the Quasi-Emperor realm.

The two did not stop cultivating, but instead continued to visit super powers in various universes and even communicate with those sealed-down powerful beings.

They quickly became powerful figures at the ninth level of the Quasi-Emperor realm.

In this age when the true path is obscure, it is extremely difficult to attain the Dao and become an emperor.

They then entered the mythical battlefield, where they engaged in life-or-death battles every so often.

They vowed to hone each other to perfection and pledged to become emperors in this era.

They fought battle after battle, seemingly tireless.

Those who were still cultivating on the ancient path of the starry sky looked at these two powerful figures who seemed like gods and were filled with envy.

The melodious sound continued to rise, and Gai Jiuyou's Nine Netherworld Divine Melody reached its zenith, forming its own unique divine melody.

His opponent, Xiang Yufei, wielded a black dragon-patterned sword, seemingly poised to cleave through the eternal starry sky.

At this moment, Xiang Yufei was extremely powerful, capable of destroying galaxies with a wave of his hand.

Each attack shattered Gai Jiuyou's Great Dao Heavenly Sound, charging towards Gai Jiuyou again and again, as if it could tear him apart at any moment.

Despite the terrifying attack, Gai Jiuyou remained completely calm.

Based on his unique physique, he created a supreme cultivation technique, which was his own forbidden secret art, and he was very confident in it.

Now, if it is further refined to its fullest potential, it will become a true celestial melody for transcending tribulations.

It was a divine melody that rivaled the creation of heaven and earth, containing boundless power.

The Great Dao roared, and the chaos was boundless. The aftershocks of the battle between the two would occasionally reach the outside world, causing the creatures that sensed them to secretly tremble with fear.

From the aftershocks of this battle, one could occasionally sense the supreme divine might.

Many people even suspect that Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei have already entered the ultimate realm.

At this moment, Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei were not only competing in their martial arts techniques, but also engaging in a physical confrontation.

Amidst the terrifying energy and law storms, two figures stood proudly, comprehending the Dao and cultivating their powers in the midst of battle.

. . .

Rumble.

On the same day, they each cited their own enlightenment tribulations.

A terrifying bolt of lightning descended from the sky, engulfing the two of them.

The terrifying lightning seemed capable of destroying all life, causing countless creatures to tremble in fear.

Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei, however, showed no fear in the face of this terrifying lightning.

Both of them were actively absorbing and refining the lightning.

No matter how violent the heavenly tribulation may be, the two will deal with it calmly.

Many powerful individuals who witnessed all of this felt a deep sense of admiration.

As expected of someone who has cultivated to this level in an era where the great Dao is not yet revealed, they are truly a prodigy.

With a deafening roar, they survived the heavenly tribulation and truly attained the Dao and became emperors.

The World Tree swayed gently and manifested in the world.

Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei flew onto the leaf without hesitation, where they comprehended their own unique Dao and consolidated their Great Emperor Dao Fruit.
