The story of "Covering the Sky" begins with checking in with the Void Emperor's Blood

Chapter 117 Overwhelming the Prodigies of the Eastern Wilderness

The husband of the demon princess Yan Ruyu—this identity may seem unremarkable at first glance, but it actually represents many things.

Because in the entire Eastern Wilderness, Yan Ruyu is already the most outstanding genius.

Although he keeps a low profile and is not well-known, everyone with discerning eyes knows that he is a prodigy comparable to the Holy Son of Yao Guang and the Divine Body of the Eastern Wilderness.

His talent was among the best in the entire Eastern Wilderness, but because of his indifferent nature, he did not become as famous as other geniuses such as the Golden-Winged Roc King.

But this does not mean that it is weak; on the contrary, it has become increasingly terrifying due to the gradual revitalization of the Azure Emperor lineage.

To become her husband, one must be exceptional; his talent and status must be among the best in the world, making him the most talented and noble person of his time.

Those with inside information also know that some time ago in the Azure Dragon King's small world, the Golden-Winged Roc King spoke rudely and was almost slapped to death.

Legend has it that after that battle, even the renowned Golden-Winged Roc King of the Eastern Wilderness knelt down, kneeling outside the Hall of Immortality for three days and three nights before finally rescuing the Little Golden-Winged Roc King.

Otherwise, the renowned Golden-Winged Roc King of the Eastern Wilderness would probably have died on the spot that day, beyond any hope of survival.

Considering his identity as the son-in-law of the demon emperor, this undoubtedly deepened their apprehension and made everyone present look at Chen Yu with even greater caution.

But while some are cautious, others choose to act recklessly.

After all, they are people of the Heavenly Shroud; it would be abnormal if they didn't act headstrong when faced with a problem.

"I thought he was some important person of high status, but he's just a gigolo."

The candidate holy son of the Five Elements Palace sneered, "Those standing here are all renowned geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness; there's no place for a son-in-law like you!"

As soon as he said that, the little dragon king in green knew things were going to get bad, and he silently took a step back, afraid that blood would splatter on him.

"A very important person of high status?"

Looking at the person who spoke in front of him, Chen Yu's expression remained unchanged: "I may not be a big shot, but what are you anyway?"

The next moment, he took a step forward.

boom!

With a slam of the palm, a terrifying sound rang out.

A giant palm print condensed in mid-air and then fell directly down, crashing heavily forward.

"you!"

Initially, the candidate holy son of the Five Elements Hall did not take Chen Yu's attack seriously.

Because this attack looked ordinary and didn't seem to have any great power.

But soon, his expression changed as he sensed immense power in that palm strike.

His whole body was glowing, and the divine power within him was working hard to unleash unparalleled divine techniques in an attempt to contend with the palm print in front of him.

But this is completely useless.

The palm print looked ordinary, but the power it contained was the strongest in the world. When it erupted, it shattered all of its efforts.

With a crisp sound, the cultivator's body was torn apart, his entire body shattered, unable to withstand the slightest resistance.

With a single palm strike, the candidate for Holy Son of the Five Elements Hall was killed on the spot.

Upon witnessing this scene, the pupils of everyone present immediately contracted.

Among those present were many true prodigies, such as Ji Haoyue and the Holy Son of Yaoguang, who were all very powerful. In their eyes, the Five Elements Palace's candidate Holy Son was nothing special, as his strength was limited and he was not on the same level.

However, no matter what, this is a true cultivator of the Four Extremes, one of the geniuses of the Northern Region. Even if they wanted to take him down, they would have to put in a lot of effort.

But now, he was killed with a single blow, as easily as crushing an ant.

"Heaven cherishes life."

With a single palm strike, Chen Yu killed the candidate holy son of the Five Elements Hall. He then turned to look ahead and said, "I do not wish to kill, nor do I wish to start a war with you all. I only ask that you all make way for me."

His words were calm, and although his voice was very soft, they reached the ears of a particular person precisely.

"Does Heaven have a virtue of cherishing life?"

The Holy Son of Dayan frowned: "Does Your Excellency think you have us cornered?"

Despite Chen Yu's fierce presence, they were unwilling to back down.

Because at this time, this place had already become a rehearsal for the future conquest of the Eastern Wilderness.

Everyone standing here is a top genius in the Eastern Wilderness. Who would think they are worse than others?

If we retreat now, wouldn't that be admitting that we are not as strong as the other party and that we are no match for them?

Having dominated their respective territories for many years, these arrogant individuals naturally harbored pride and were unwilling to admit it.

But clearly, Chen Yu didn't care about their opinions.

Seeing that they did not move, he stepped forward and took a step ahead.

This action made Ye Fan's heart skip a beat.

Given the current situation, rushing forward could very well result in a situation where multiple people act together.

If the prodigies in front of him feel threatened, they are likely to abandon their previous grudges and unite to attack Chen Yu.

"Is Master Chen going to take on all the geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness single-handedly?"

Ye Fan stood there, muttering to himself.

For some reason, looking at the scene before him, he became inexplicably excited. His holy blood burned within him, and he wished he could replace Chen Yu and meet the geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness in this way.

"I must achieve the Great Perfection of the Holy Body."

'

He reaffirmed his determination to achieve the Great Perfection of the Holy Body, his gaze fixed ahead without even blinking.

"kill!"

As soon as Chen Yu took a step, the young man closest to him suddenly attacked.

He charged toward Chen Yu in front of him, the silver divine sword in his hand shining brightly, and an incomparably sharp sword aura slashed out.

An inexplicable fluctuation emerged from it, carrying astonishing power.

Without a doubt, this is an astonishing sword technique. Once unleashed, it is enough to shatter the stars in the sky, destroy the divine mountain, and annihilate all things in the void with a single strike.

"Not bad swordsmanship."

Chen Yu nodded, acknowledging the man's swordsmanship, and then struck him down with his palm.

This was still just a simple, unadorned palm strike, seemingly ordinary, but when it landed, no amount of dazzling sword light could save it.

The divine sword roared, the weapon having begun to develop a spirit, working with its master to thrust forward and slash at the enemy in front of it.

But when faced with that palm, all of that was useless.

The sword light dimmed, its brilliant radiance extinguished, and the profound meaning contained within it was shattered by this palm strike, even the divine sword was forcibly broken.

puff!

With a dull thud, the man's body staggered backward and crashed heavily to the ground.

His face was as pale as paper, devoid of any color. He stared silently at the broken sword in his hand, his eyes devoid of any luster.

Another prodigy was defeated with a single palm strike.

Everyone present felt a sudden tightness in their chests, a tension they had never felt before.

Because at this moment, they had already sensed that invisible force.

The opponent before them seemed ordinary and unremarkable, but he possessed immense power, far surpassing any other adversary in terms of ferocity.

"Did you really fight alongside him back then?"

The Holy Son of Dayan looked at Chen Yu in front of him and couldn't help but send a telepathic message to the Holy Son of Yaoguang, wanting to know the truth of that battle.

"When I fought him, he was only at the Dao Palace Secret Realm, but now he has broken through to the Four Extremes..."

'

The Holy Son of Yaoguang transmitted his voice, giving him a reply.

But this reply left the Holy Son of Dayan speechless, unsure of what to say.

As fellow prodigies of the Eastern Wilderness, he knew better than many the terrifying nature of the Holy Son of Yao Guang, who was almost unfathomable.

But even such a terrifying and formidable Holy Son of Yao Guang couldn't defeat Chen Yu when he was only at the Dao Palace Secret Realm.

Just how terrifying is the opponent's combat power?

Ahead, Chen Yu continued forward.

He walked forward step by step, as if strolling leisurely, but with each step he would strike out with his palm, knocking those famous prodigies to the ground.

Those prodigies came from different regions, some from the Northern Region and some from other parts of the Eastern Wilderness. They were all elite prodigies from various sects and were the first tier below the holy sons of various holy lands.

In the past, even when facing Ji Haoyue, the divine body of the Ji family, they were often able to fight against her. Although they were certainly no match for her, they could still hold their own for a while and were not immediately defeated.

But at this moment, they are like roadside weeds, trampled on at will.

The man didn't even intentionally attack them; he just casually struck them with a palm. He didn't use any powerful divine magic, but with just a casual strike, they felt an overwhelming and terrifying force.

This terrifying performance filled them with despair, and they dared not even try to fight back.

Later on, apart from Ji Haoyue, the divine body of the Ji family, the divine body of the Jiang family, the Holy Son of Yaoguang, and others, no one else dared to stand in front of him. They retreated directly, not daring to confront him or face him directly.

"This is truly defying the heavens..."

'

Black Emperor stared intently at Chen Yu's figure, muttering to himself, "He truly has some of the grandeur of an emperor..."

'

The Great Emperor Wushi back then was just like this now, pushing away any opponent with a single palm strike.

No matter what kind of ancient family's prodigy you are, or what kind of holy land's holy son you come from, none of you can withstand a single palm strike from the Great Emperor Wushi.

He only needs to push forward with one hand to sweep past and defeat everyone.

Among all the emperors and sovereigns of the ages, the Great Emperor Wushi was extremely powerful, strong enough to make everyone feel despair and dare not contend with him.

In the eyes of the Black Emperor, Chen Yu's performance now is very similar to that of the Great Emperor Wushi back then.

The same unparalleled dominance, the same invincibility among those of the same level.

"That's how a true man should be!"

Ye Fan stood aside, his heart pounding as he gazed at the strength Chen Yu displayed before him.

If he could, he would gladly take the place of the prodigies of the Eastern Wilderness and fight them all by himself.

His blood was boiling, and he felt an uncontrollable surge of holy energy.

Ahead, Chen Yu continued toward the Chaos Stone.

He did not attack those who voluntarily retreated; he simply avoided them and continued forward.

Just as he had said before, he came here only for the Chaos Stone in front of him, and had no other intentions.

Soon, he passed through the desolate eastern wilderness, and now only a few people remained blocking his way.

The Holy Son of Dayan was enveloped in sword light, like a divine sword about to be drawn from its sheath. His demeanor was extremely powerful, as if he could draw his sword at any moment and unleash a terrifying sword strike that would shock the world.

The Holy Son of Yaoguang had a calm and composed expression. He was surrounded by holy halos that appeared behind him, displaying the unique charm of the Yaoguang Holy Land's Primordial Holy Light Technique, as if he were about to unleash a thunderous attack at any moment.

The Jiang family's divine body stood quietly, looking very mysterious. Its entire body was covered by a black iron canopy, making it impossible to see its shape or appearance. One could only judge from the aura emanating from its body that it was definitely a peerless genius.

As the bright moon rose, Ji Haoyue, the divine body of the Ji family, tensed up, his divine power surging up, and a strange phenomenon of the bright moon appeared behind him, as if it might erupt at any moment.

Besides that, the most surprising thing was the presence of several girls.

The Holy Maiden of Dao Yi Holy Land dressed as a Daoist nun. She looked like a young girl, and although she was not old, she possessed a supreme power in the world.

She stood there, gazing at Chen Yu ahead, chanting the title of the Boundless Heavenly Venerable, as if an invisible aura emanated from her.

With the blessing of power, the divine power throughout his body became even stronger.

Behind him was a girl in purple, naturally flawless, as if in harmony with the Dao, possessing an innate Daoist charm.

This is the Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion Holy Land. She stands there with a cold and aloof demeanor, gazing quietly at Chen Yu in front of her, as if she has encountered some unparalleled enemy.

Beside the Purple Mansion Saintess, the Jade Pool Saintess also stood quietly, her whole being exuding a holy aura, with an ethereal and dynamic charm, carrying an air of mystery and unpredictability.

Each and every one of the top geniuses standing here is a top talent in the Eastern Wilderness. They are either the holy sons and daughters of powerful holy lands or the heirs of ancient families, possessing imperial scriptures and special physiques.

This is absolutely the most powerful group of people in the entire Eastern Wilderness, and even in the entire Big Dipper.

Among them are those who have mastered the Imperial Scriptures, and even those with special physiques.

There are two God-King Bodies alone, and there is also a rare innate Dao Embryo.

Many people firmly believe that even if an ancient emperor were reborn and returned to his youth, he would absolutely not be able to match so many prodigies of this age.

These people all possess imperial potential, and have the ability to embark on the path to becoming emperors in the stars and become ancient emperors. They can be called young emperors.

Even if the Great Emperor Wushi were to be reborn and return to his youth, it would be absolutely impossible for him to rival so many people with imperial potential at the same time.

But now, it seems someone is going to take on this impossible task.

This inevitably attracted the attention of everyone present, causing them to focus their gaze on Chen Yu and stare intently at him.

Under their watchful eyes, Chen Yu continued forward.

The first person he faced was the Holy Son of the Dayan Holy Land.

Upon seeing Chen Yu ahead, he didn't hesitate at all and immediately made his move.

The Great Evolution Divine Sword was revealed, its terrifying divine power slashing down, transforming into an incomparably dazzling and boundless divine sword that cleaved forward as if to shatter everything in this world.
