Covering the Sky: I am the King of Men, and I rule over the rise and fall of all heavens.

Chapter 108 Finding the Method for Advancement
In the late Immortal Ancient Era, in the border imperial city, Jiang Bai sat cross-legged in the secluded cultivation place of the Immortal King Wuzhong, comprehending the Great Dao he left behind, using it to heal his wounds and improve himself.

To this day, he has remained in this era for 30,000 years.

Five thousand years ago, Jiang Bai led the remaining Immortal Kings and the Ten Fiends to repel the alien realm, and waited for the return of the Immortal Kings of the World Sea, including Liu Shen, which gave the ancient realm a chance to breathe.

Over these 30,000 years, Jiang Bai successfully found a way to continue improving himself.

That is to learn all the ways, understand all the ways, master all the ways, and place all the ways under one's own Great Way of Human Kingship.

In order to advance effectively, Jiang Bai took on the karmic consequences of this era, connecting himself with the Primordial Ancient Realm, making himself the driver and the Primordial Ancient Realm the vehicle frame, so as to better comprehend the myriad paths and receive the blessing of the Ancient Realm.

In the primordial world, this move would probably be called "the body merging with all the Dao".

In the Sacred Ruins, the Collapse Heaven Emperor Gu Qing once advanced to Quasi-Immortal Emperor by bearing the Heavenly Emperor's position. He gained the blessing of the myriad paths of the heavens by bearing the Heavenly Emperor's position, thus advancing to the next level.

According to Jiang Bai's deduction, as the Primordial Ancient Realm expands and improves, his strength will also increase. If one day he allows the Primordial Ancient Realm to melt the entire universe, his strength will evolve to an incredible level.

If one day the Primordial Ancient Realm were to devour the Boundary Sea, the Ultimate Ancient Land, and refine the heavens, Jiang Bai might be able to directly transcend the Sacrifice Path and achieve something beyond it.

This was a truly magnificent blueprint, and Jiang Bai was incredibly excited when he deduced it.

As for whether it will work or not, let's try it first. Anyway, after he returns to his original time and space, he will lead the Primordial Ancient Realm to conquer all the heavens.

After recovering from his injuries, Jiang Bai opened his eyes and entered the Myriad Soul Banner. He saw An Lan's primordial spirit struggling inside, resisting the banner's refining power.

“As an immortal king, my will is indestructible, and my primordial spirit is immortal. You don’t need to waste your energy; you can’t refine me.” An Lan exuded boundless confidence.

In the past, there were instances where Immortal Kings attempted to refine individuals of the same realm in an effort to advance to a higher realm, but all failed because Immortal Kings were too difficult to kill.

Jiang Bai nodded, agreeing, but he didn't say he was going to kill An Lan and refine her.

With a soft thud, Jiang Bai pierced through An Lan's primordial spirit head without mercy, before An Lan's incredulous gaze.

"I'm here to conduct an experiment, the King's Ride."

When Jiang Bai tried to master the myriad paths, he suddenly remembered an anime he had watched in his previous life called The Seven Deadly Sins. One of the abilities in the anime was called "Honor of God," which would enslave those who turned their backs on God.

Jiang Bai wondered if he could turn An Lan into his slave.

He used the Great Dao of the Human King to control Anlan's Great Dao, thus turning Anlan into his slave and hiding her in a foreign land.

Therefore, what Jiang Bai needs to do this time is to control Anlan.

"Imprison." Jiang Bai pressed down firmly on An Lan's primordial spirit, restricting his abilities.

The surging and violent Great Dao of the Human King rushed into An Lan's primordial spirit along Jiang Bai's hand, impacting his Great Dao of the Immortal King.

"Impossible! I am the invincible Immortal King, the Destroyer and Purifier of the Ancient Realms. I cannot possibly lose to you!" An Lan continued to roar, refusing to accept defeat.

"As the King of Men, I shall rule over all the myriad paths of the heavens. You should be glad that you have become my first slave." Jiang Baijia's Great Dao of the Great King was fiercely eroding An Lan's Great Dao.

As time passed, An Lan's resistance weakened, and in the darkness, the incomparably hard Immortal King Dao was gradually taken over by the Human King Dao.

The moment An Lan's resistance completely disappeared, Jiang Bai's momentum surged.

"It's done."

As Jiang Bai's heart stirred, An Lan's primordial spirit slowly bowed down.

"No matter how stubborn you are, your body tells a story." Jiang Bai's lips curled up. "Wake up." Withdrawing control of the Human King's Great Dao, An Lan's consciousness returned, and she instantly woke up.

Seeing his kneeling primordial spirit body, An Lan was furious. His aura exploded, and he charged towards Jiang Bai: "How dare you humiliate me, you brat!"

Jiang Bai dodged the attack and opened the sealed gate of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

On this day, Anlan's primordial spirit broke out of the border imperial city and fled back to the foreign land.

Jiang Bai stood alone atop the imperial city, watching his departing figure, feeling the tranquil avenue beneath the Human King's Avenue, and a smile appeared on his lips.

Anlan slave, let's meet again in the future.

...............

Taking advantage of the lull in the fighting, Jiang Bai traveled through the ancient realm, repairing the damage in various places and communicating with the remaining True Immortals and Immortal Kings who were willing to fight.

The ancient world during this period was a chaotic mix of all sorts of people, including supporters sent from the Immortal Realm, Immortal Kings returning from the Boundary Sea, resident Immortal Kings, and the Ten Fiends.

However, there are not many combat forces available. Currently, including Jiang Bai, there are only two peak combat forces: Jiang Bai and Liu Shen.

Other surviving Immortal Kings of the Primordial Ancient Realm include Xuanwu Immortal King, the Second in the World, Immortal Gold Daoist, Immortal Monk King, and an Immortal King of the Primordial Ancient Realm who returned from the Boundary Sea, named Gu Ning. Jiang Bai guessed that he was most likely the one who was later tricked and refined by the Crimson King.

Others capable of unleashing the power of a Celestial King include Kunpeng, one of the Ten Fiends, and several of the Seven Kings of the Borderlands.

There are quite a few true immortals, but most of them are not respectable and have too many petty schemes.

The people sent by the Immortal Realm are divided into two types. One type is those who lost the battle and were chosen by lot. These people have been cunning and ruthless in the Primordial Ancient Realm, collecting all kinds of divine materials to offer to the Immortal Realm in order to return as soon as possible.

Furthermore, it gathered together a group of spineless individuals from the ancient world, such as the Jin family and the Wang family, who were also parasites in the original ancient world.

Another group consists of those with a strong sense of righteousness, such as the deceased Thunder Emperor.

While Jiang Bai was traveling, news suddenly came from the Immortal Realm that, in order to ensure the purity of the Immortal Realm, it would soon close its gates and banish the primordial ancient world that was about to crumble. Most of the races that had been sent to provide support would not be allowed to return, especially those who had volunteered.

This news made Jiang Bai's eyes darken; he sensed a conspiracy.

As expected, after the news spread, those sent by the Immortal Realm who were deemed uncontaminated began to evacuate to the Immortal Realm, taking with them a large amount of resources from the Primordial Ancient Realm. Furthermore, a large number of True Immortals from the Primordial Ancient Realm fled into the Immortal Realm with their direct descendants.

The remaining fighting force of the ancient primitive world was greatly diminished.

"More importantly, the remaining supporters will also hide themselves, becoming the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Forbidden Zones, giving the alien realm the opportunity to completely annihilate this world, and also giving... the Immortal Realm the opportunity to collect immortal fortune."

"The alien realm and the immortal realm both win, but my primordial ancient realm suffers a huge loss."

Jiang Bai returned to the border capital and looked at those who were still willing to fight, speaking softly.

"We must still fight," Gu Ning said calmly. At this point, blaming anyone was useless; their overall strength was weak.

"No, what I mean is to initiate the Great Reckoning, so that all the heavens may suffer calamity together," Jiang Bai sneered.

"Light the World Extinction Incense."

Jiang Bai didn't care how the chaos ended in the original story. Having fought a bloody battle in this timeline, he now wanted to drag all the worlds down with him.

Liu Shen, Gu Ning, Kunpeng King, and the Second Immortal Under Heaven, Jin Daoren, all had their pupils shrink. Is it really that crazy?
But when it came to scheming against them, everyone agreed.
