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

Chapter 78 Another Kind of Invincible Heart
During the Great Emperor's Tribulation, Shenzhou not only confronted the tribulation head-on to hone itself, but also used the tribulation to forge the imperial weapon, the Shenzhou Cauldron.

Preparing to advance to the level of a complete emperor in one fell swoop.

After all, there is a difference in combat power between emperors who have imperial weapons and those who don't.

Jiang Bai looked at Shenzhou for a while, and after confirming that he could definitely cross over, he turned his gaze to the starry sky to find the Emperor.

I'm really curious to know what this unfortunate guy is thinking right now.

This guy doesn't seem to have much luck. In the original story, he met Ye Fan and was thoroughly overwhelmed.

Having been born ahead of schedule, Jiang Bai figured that even if he couldn't defeat the current emperor, he could at least become an unparalleled enemy. But then he encountered Shenzhou, a being with a solid foundation and an extremely fast cultivation speed.

As a result, they couldn't even fight against each other at the same level, while Shenzhou had already attained enlightenment.

All I can say is, bad luck.

"Therefore, luck is also a part of strength."

When Jiang Bai saw the Emperor, he was diligently studying the Nirvana Method within the Divine Organization.

The main god of the divine organization beside him was telling him the story of Jiang Bai, who was betrayed, reborn in the afterlife, and faced the Emperor's Tribulation with his true peak.

This made Jiang Bai laugh; he never imagined that he would one day become an inspirational role model.

But thinking about it carefully, it is indeed quite inspiring. Everyone looked down on him, no one believed in him, and everyone betrayed him, but he was the one who lived up to his expectations and became the emperor of his time, and finally became an immortal.

Sometimes being hit hard and subjected to intense pressure isn't necessarily a bad thing. As long as you can get through it, it will all become the driving force for progress and the foundation for future breakthroughs.

The emperor was not discouraged and quickly entered a state of rebirth, making himself better and more well-rounded.

Soon after, Shenzhou completed its tribulation, reigned supreme over the universe, and became the new Great Emperor, the ruler of the universe.

To Jiang Bai's surprise, Shenzhou came to find him immediately after becoming emperor.

"I want to challenge you, senior," Shenzhou stated his intention directly.

Jiang Bai's eye twitched: "Why?"

He's quite approachable.

“Your title is King of Men, and I do not wish to be subordinate to anyone,” Shenzhou said decisively and with a hearty laugh.

Jiang Bai couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, "I have no intention of becoming king among men."

His title of "King of Men" was merely due to his physical constitution; he never intended to rule the human race.

That's so boring.

Even when it comes to improving the strength of all living beings in the universe, Jiang Bai simply provides them with benefits, allowing them to grow.

“But your title will make many people think that you want to, so I want to challenge you.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Bai felt a surge of anger. "You brat, I've already explained, do you just have to ask for a beating?"

The war begins.

The war is over.

Under the witness of all living beings in the universe, Shenzhou, who had just been promoted to Great Emperor, flew out of the Divine Land World along with the Imperial Weapon Shenzhou Cauldron and exploded in the universe.

The tripod was broken.

This scene made some people in the universe realize the combat power of Jiang Baixianren. He shattered an emperor along with his imperial weapon with a single slap. What an outrageous combat power this was.

The claims of the Great Emperors, Ancient Sovereigns, and Celestial Venerables who defied the heavens and vanquished immortals have all become a joke.

"Hahahahaha."

Under the starry sky, Shenzhou, who had been re-condensing and refining the imperial weapon Shenzhou Cauldron, seemed to have gone mad, becoming excited even after being instantly killed.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Bai felt a sense of foreboding; it seemed he had gotten himself into some trouble.

After the restoration, Shenzhou preached the Great Dao to all beings in the universe, and then moved to the Divine Land World.

The reason is... The Human King rules over the human race, and I, as the Great Emperor of the human race, have lost to you, the Human King, in front of all living beings in the universe. Of course, I must come and accept your command.

Jiang Bai refused and smashed Shenzhou again, throwing it out of the Divine Land World.

After recovering from its injuries, Shenzhou returned once again, opening a hole in the sealed world of Shentu and infiltrating it.

Jiang Bai smashed him to pieces again and threw him out. After repeating this three times, Jiang Bai, unable to bear it any longer, imprisoned Shenzhou and hung him upside down in front of the Ninefold Imperial Pass for all to see.

Three hundred years later, Shenzhou's cultivation level reached a new height, and he broke through the seal and entered the Divine Land World once again.

Jiang Bai laughed: "You little brat, you've figured out I won't kill you, so you're using me as a whetstone?"

This time, Jiang Bai's smile was filled with a sinister chill.

Shenzhou laughed heartily as usual: "You are the King of Humanity, ruling over the human race. As a member of the human race, one of the most powerful cultivators, and your defeated opponent, I should rightfully accept your rule."

His eyes were sincere, and his attitude was earnest, but Jiang Bai did not believe him.

If you really respect Jiang Bai, you shouldn't have come back.

This time, Jiang Bai neither destroyed Shenzhou nor imprisoned him. Instead, he allowed him to live in the Divine Land World as a servant.

Since you say you want to be under my rule, then I agree.

I want to see if you, the great emperor of this era, can accept the status of a "servant".

To Jiang Bai's surprise, Shenzhou really treated him as a "servant".

Over the past three hundred years, Shenzhou has been responsible for everything, from managing the medicinal fields and cleaning the Human King's Palace to managing the several forbidden courtyards, mobilizing the power of faith to expand the scope of the divine land world in the chaos, and preaching to the witch tribe.

And he became more and more excellent, even taking time out of his spare time to do his own spiritual practice.

Have you forgotten your identity as the Great Emperor?

On this day, Jiang Bai suddenly appeared while picking Enlightenment Tea leaves in Shenzhou and spoke.

Wearing a long blue robe and picking tea like an ordinary tea farmer, Shenzhou didn't turn his head and said casually, "In my opinion, the Great Emperor is just a realm in cultivation."

“In the past, we could be proud of being invincible in the heavens and on the earth.”

"With you here, with that person in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, and with the Undying Emperor, the Great Emperor Wushi, and other outstanding figures before us, what is there to be proud of?"

"Therefore, in my opinion, the Great Emperor is now at a cultivation level, and I am not invincible in heaven and earth, but just an ordinary cultivator who racks his brains to follow the side of a stronger person in order to improve further."

Jiang Bai was a little taken aback. He hadn't expected that the Great Emperor was defined in this way in China, merely as a realm on the path of cultivation.

If that's the case, it's no wonder that China can accept "servants".

Upon closer inspection, Jiang Bai discovered that the cultivation level in Shenzhou was much stronger than it had been three hundred years ago.

After picking the tea leaves, Shenzhou turned around, his face bearing the same confident smile as before.

"If there's nothing else, senior, I'm going to harvest the medicinal herbs in the field," Shenzhou said casually.

"No rush, let's discuss the Great Dao," Jiang Bai invited.

Shenzhou sat cross-legged, and the two discussed their understanding of the Great Dao under the Enlightenment Tea Tree.

It's mainly China that's talking.

Through Shenzhou's narrative, Jiang Bai gained a new understanding of his Great Dao.

The path practiced in Shenzhou is called the Path of All Beings, just like the flowers, birds, fish, and insects carved on its Shenzhou Cauldron, and naturally, the people cultivate the land.

Shenzhou believes that all living beings exist in an orderly manner between heaven and earth, and each person has their own responsibilities.

The former emperors were the strongest and their duty was to protect the peace of the universe.

Now, with the arrival of stronger figures like Jiang Bai, the Emperor's duty has returned to its original state: that of an ordinary cultivator, diligently cultivating.

It is precisely because of this understanding that Shenzhou believes there is nothing wrong with his shameless behavior of staying in the Divine Land to cultivate and becoming a "servant".

"What do you think an invincible mindset is?" Jiang Bai asked with a subtle expression.

"Follow your heart," Shenzhou said with a faint smile.

"The so-called shattering of the Dao heart is nothing more than the shattering of one's arrogance, the inability to accept one's own failure, and the resulting despair."

"I can accept defeat, I can accept death, I can accept being outmatched, and I can keep moving forward. Isn't that a kind of invincibility?"

In Shenzhou's view, as long as one can accept everything, one's Dao heart will never be broken, and one's invincible heart will remain intact.
