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

Chapter 56 An Unexpected Turn of Events: He Lived a Sixth Lifetime

In Jiang Bai's observation, the human king Dao being nurtured within the illusory elixir was being nourished by his own essence, energy, and spirit, and was also absorbing the power of the three gods in his dantian.

At the same time, as the Way of the Human King was nurtured, Jiang Bai clearly felt it giving back to him.

Jiang Bai's mortal body is showing a faint tendency to evolve into a human king's body and improve his physical constitution.

Make one's own body more suitable for cultivating the path of the king.

Upon realizing this, an idea suddenly flashed through Jiang Bai's mind: Could I create a new Human King Body? Or should I call it Human King Body 2.0?

It makes the King's Body like the Holy Body and the Overlord Body, and once mastered, it can challenge the Great Emperor.

Incidentally, it also allows you to explore the mysteries of physical constitution.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Bai deduced two secret techniques named Earth-Covering Seal and Heaven-Turning Seal based on the fundamental logic of the Human King Seal, Heaven-Turning Seal, and Great Dao Seal.

Jiang Bai tried to integrate the logic of these two secret techniques into the Three Gods' Offering to the Void Core Human King's Way.

Then, by using the Kingly Dao within the illusory core to nourish itself, it is incorporated into the new Kingly body.

Heaven and earth will automatically inscribe his physique, his new human king body, so that the human king body will come with two more Great Dao secret techniques in the future.

Jiang Bai thought this integration would be quick, but it actually took a thousand years.

After some thought, Jiang Bai incorporated the three fundamental secret techniques he had created, namely, "Under the vast sky, all land belongs to the king," "Within the borders of the land, all people are subjects of the king," and "The King's Sacrifice."

A miraculous scene unfolded before Jiang Bai's eyes: the illusory core seemed to transform into a furnace, where the power represented by several forbidden secret techniques turned into fuel, burning and fusing.

In a daze, Jiang Bai felt himself enter a strange state.

In this state, he became connected with heaven and earth, with this universe.

After a moment's thought, Jiang Bai understood that this was Heaven and Earth inscribing his Great Dao, evolving a new Human King Body with him, and beginning to record the alchemical methods.

He has become the one who guides this universe forward.

"When I become powerful in the future, I will learn from the old Golden Crow Immortal King and attract other Immortal Kings from all the heavens to bring their great worlds to surrender, so that this universe can be melted down into an existence comparable to the former Immortal Realm."

Jiang Bai took advantage of this moment and said softly.

In an instant, Jiang Bai felt that his process of evolving into the new human king body with the help of the illusory core was much smoother.

It was as if divine intervention was on their side.

Jiang Bai began to guide the fusion of secret techniques within the illusory core, such as the fusion of the Heaven-Turning Seal and the Earth-Covering Seal to create an even stronger secret technique. The Heaven-Turning Seal secret technique, when unleashed, can have the power to collapse heaven and earth, and it emphasizes the principle of one force breaking all laws.

The Seal of the Human King and the Seal of the Heavens, when combined with the land, represent the fusion of king and ministers, forming a secret technique to command the heavens. When unleashed, all within sight are king and ministers, who can be commanded at will.

The Great Dao Seal and the vast heavens encompass all the king's land. The fusion of human and royal sacrifices forms a forbidden secret technique, which is used for sacrifices to all the heavens.

A forbidden domain is formed around the body, and everything within the domain can be sacrificed to strengthen oneself.

Just like feudal emperors collecting taxes.

Similarly, if the opponent is too strong, it will also cause a backlash.

Just like a peasant uprising.

Although the forbidden secret techniques carried by the Human King Body have been enhanced, bringing it to roughly the level of the Nine Divine Forms of the Overlord Body and the Sacred Body Avatar.

However, Jiang Bai still felt it wasn't enough. The physical constitution of the Human King Body should be strengthened. The reason why the Overlord Body and the Holy Body could challenge the Great Emperor after achieving great success was because after they reached the ninth level of mastery, their physical bodies were already comparable to the bodies of the Great Emperor and could bear a portion of the Imperial Law.

An alternative path to enlightenment involves not achieving the physical goal, but having half of one's primordial spirit enter the Emperor Realm, thus assuming a portion of the Emperor's Laws.

The alternative path to enlightenment for the Holy Body and the Overlord Body is to allow one's primordial spirit to also bear a portion of the laws of the Imperial Way.

Essentially, the foundation for achieving enlightenment through unconventional means, such as the Great Perfection Holy Body challenging the Great Emperor and fighting the Supreme Being, lies in the fact that one also possesses a portion of the Imperial Dao Laws.

Without the laws of the imperial path, there is no way to fight. Even the two emperors Yanhuang in the original work, who were near-nine and possessed the bodies of emperors, could only inflict some damage through sneak attacks. They were still near-death supreme beings in forbidden zones.

However, only by relying on bloodline to awaken a portion of the Great Emperor's Dao Fruit of the Void and the Universe, and possessing a portion of the Imperial Dao Laws of the Void and the Universe, can one put up a fight. Therefore, if the Human King Body wants to reach the near-Nine Great Completion of the Sacred Body and challenge the Great Emperor, it must also achieve Great Completion, so that its physical body can bear a portion of the Imperial Dao Laws.

Faced with this, Jiang Bai had a new idea. Based on the Human King Seal, Heaven-Turning Seal, Great Dao Seal, Earth-Covering Seal, and Heavens Seal, he created the Mountain-Embracing Seal, Mountain and River Seal, Yang Seal, and Moon Seal.

Each seal has a different effect. When the nine seals are combined, they can be transformed into the Emperor's Seal, creating a new forbidden secret technique.

The Human King Body, which cultivates nine seal techniques, will experience a dramatic increase in its foundation, reaching the level of the Holy Body and the Overlord Body. Once it achieves mastery, it can challenge the ancient emperors.

"Perfect." Jiang Bai was very satisfied with his deduction.

The next step is to take advantage of the current favorable state to promote the evolution of the Human King Dao within the illusory core, thereby nourishing oneself and achieving a new version of the Human King Body.

That is, the first generation, the Great Achievement Human King Body that can challenge the Great Emperor.

The human king's way incarnation within the illusory core was in a furnace, burning wildly, and the illusory core gradually evolved from illusory to real, entering Jiang Bai's abdomen.

Three thousand years later, a soaring aura rose from the Divine Land, its crimson blood illuminating half the universe.

Jiang Bai was somewhat stunned. He had actually managed to reach the sixth position?

The late-life crisis he had anticipated just vanished without him?
This is so unexpected!

Those secretly observing were even more surprised; this was different from what they had predicted.

On the planet Ziwei, a newborn baby girl, abandoned at birth, silenced the surrounding wild beasts with her loud cries and attracted a cultivator.

Looking into the baby girl's bright eyes, the monk felt an urge to kneel down in worship.

It was as if the baby girl was the ruler of heaven and earth.

Within the Divine Land World, Jiang Bai, who had lived through his sixth life and been reborn as a human king, now looked like he was in his early twenties, was frowning.

The rebuilt and evolved Human King Body only carried nine Great Seal Secret Techniques; it did not include the "Under the Vast Heaven," "Within the Land," and "Human King Sacrifice" that he had tried to integrate.

Even the advanced forbidden secret technique born from the fusion of several great seals, the Commanding Heaven and Earth Overturning Seal, was not incorporated into the Heavenly Sacrifices.

Or rather, the effects of these forbidden secret techniques were transformed into special effects and incorporated into the Nine Great Seals.

When the King of Men seal is activated, it possesses a power that commands the world and makes all the gods submit.

This is a system simplification.

"I have mixed feelings," Jiang Bai sighed.

Good news! He has lived to his sixth incarnation, taking another step closer to becoming an immortal in the mortal world.

The bad news is that the Human King Body, which he had anticipated possessing numerous secret techniques, did not appear, and he missed an opportunity to lure the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone out.

Furthermore, he did not use up his lifespan in his fifth life.

“Next time, it will be even harder to lure it out.” Jiang Bai shook his head.

Immerse yourself in researching the new version of the Human King's Body.

From Jiang Bai's perspective, the new version of the Human King Body can prove the Dao, but... it's too difficult.

Furthermore, Jiang Bai also saw through this why your Overlord Body and Holy Body could not attain enlightenment.

It's not that one cannot attain enlightenment, nor is there a dead end.

Rather, the journey was too long; looking at it from a distance, it was practically cut off.

It's like running on a straight road that leads to the sky, trying to see the end of the road, but you can't see anything, as if it's broken.

"I don't know if my actions have harmed the younger generation of the Wang style."
