Covering the Sky: Fairy, I really need to control you properly.

If there were any demon cultivators present at this moment, they would surely rush towards that drop of blood.

Xu Jinhuan's blood is too special. It is turquoise with golden threads flowing around it, containing unimaginable vitality, as if the essence of life is condensed into a small space.

If a cultivator with a weak will were to smell that faint, lingering fragrance, they would either lose their composure or become completely disoriented, lunging at it recklessly to bite and attack.

This is by no means any physical constitution recorded in ancient history.

It is not the Chaos Body, not the Ancient Sacred Body, not the Heavenly Overlord Body, nor the God King Body, the Sun Body, or the Moon Body... There has never been such a record throughout history.

"Could it be..." Xu Jinhuan swallowed hard, "that I've really become a walking, breathing human medicine?"

If the ruthless lineage finds out about this, won't they hunt us down to the ends of the earth?

Those madmen who specialize in devouring people with special constitutions probably see me as someone they'd rather see their own father.

As he was lost in thought, suddenly, the bluish blood seeping from his fingertips seemed to be summoned by something, flowing back and surging into his body.

The wound healed without leaving a trace, and even the strange fragrance quickly faded away.

Xu Jinhuan was startled, and immediately sank into a sea of ​​bitterness.

The Tree of All Heavens stood silently, golden light flowing among its branches and leaves.

Lines of text appeared on the tree trunk...

Ancient history is a scroll, an evolutionary path that cannot be polluted or traced, upon which rise and fall countless heavens, and beneath which lies a profound and unfathomable virtue.

[The immense burdens we bear are not chosen by human will, but are ordained by Heaven.]

Xu Jinhuan stared intently at those few lines of text.

Ancient history and the path of evolution may be incomprehensible to outsiders, but Xu Jinhuan certainly understands them.

These words carry immense weight of cause and effect within the world of Shrouding the Heavens.

That's a realm that only those at the highest level of the Immortal Emperor's Path can touch. How could it be related to this Dao Tree?

Yes, that makes sense.

The reward for the sixth Dao Fruit's perfection is the ultimate chapter of the Corpse Immortal Emperor's fundamental Immortal Emperor technique, "Original True Explanation." This could not possibly be the work of the Great Emperor of Shrouding the Heavens.

Moreover, Xu Jinhuan had never heard of any method in "Covering the Sky" that could allow the Dao Tree to be nurtured within someone else's Sea of ​​Bitterness, and even turn the tables and control the host.

The azure light faded, and all the Heavenly Trees returned to tranquility.

Xu Jinhuan's consciousness withdrew from the sea of ​​suffering, opened his eyes, and remained silent for a long time.

He felt that he had been drawn into a huge causal relationship.

They come, the security.

Zixia and Yaoxi witnessed the entire process of his blood flowing backward and the changes in the Sea of ​​Bitterness, and the expressions of the two fairies were more interesting than the other.

"Dead Tree, what kind of constitution do you have?"

"A mortal body, a purely natural mortal body!"

"Also, my name is Xu Jinhuan, a pure human. As for the fairy, I have already said that I had no choice but to temporarily borrow the Sea of ​​Bitterness. Now I am my true self. Please call me by my real name."

"The name 'dead tree' sounds better," Zixia rolled her eyes.

Xu Jinhuan remained silent.

It's just occasionally manipulating the body, right? Are all women so petty?

Yao Xi frowned, her tone unusually serious, and said in a deep voice:

"The vitality within you is excessively abundant, almost comparable to a walking medicinal herb. Such a physique cannot be hidden from anyone."

"If you were to walk the world in the future, I'm afraid that the moment you show your face, you would be targeted by those with wicked intentions. At that time, those who covet your flesh and blood and want to refine you into elixirs will probably swarm to you."

A hint of worry flashed across Fairy Zixia's beautiful eyes as she said softly, "When we return to the Holy Land, I will find you a technique to conceal your aura and disguise yourself, as long as it can hide the unusual signs of life within you."

Her voice stopped abruptly as soon as she finished speaking.

Suddenly, rings of divine light shone around Xu Jinhuan's body.

Golden and intense, like the blazing sun in the sky, it enveloped his face, figure, and aura in a hazy glow.

"Will this cover things up a bit?" Xu Jinhuan asked.

"You…" Yao Xi's eyes widened, "How do you know the Primordial Holy Light Technique of my Yao Guang Holy Land?!"

Although the Holy Light spell was executed somewhat clumsily and awkwardly, with the divine rings flickering and the number of rings unstable, it was indeed based on the Primordial Holy Light spell.

This is a closely guarded secret of the Yao Guang Holy Land, and outsiders could never learn it.

Before Yao Xi could even think, something even more astonishing happened.

Xu Jinhuan raised his hand, and the aura of the Great Dao descended from the sky like a waterfall, condensing into a layer of chaotic mist around him, making the golden divine halo appear and disappear, as if a banished immortal had descended to earth.

Zixia: "Dead tree, how could you possibly draw upon the power of the Great Dao?!"

That was the innate talent of the primordial Dao embryo, a unique instinct of Zixia.

Others can't learn it even if they want to, but this tree... Xu Jinhuan can actually do it too?

Xu Jinhuan scratched his head and said, "Luckily, luckily... I can only be considered a miniature innate Dao embryo. Because the Heavenly Dao Tree is rooted in the sea of ​​suffering of the two of you, it seems that I can share some of the scriptures and physique."

"Moreover, it seems I can also use the Daoist techniques of the Purple Mansion."

Zixia gritted her teeth and asked, "Now that you have a physical body, can you remove the Dao Tree from my body?"

"Cough cough..." Xu Jinhuan coughed twice. "It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't do it."

"you!"

"Let's go back to the Holy Land first." Xu Jinhuan quickly changed the subject. "Hurry up and change into a Taoist robe. Besides, I need an identity now."

"Fairy Zixia, with your prestige, it shouldn't be difficult for you to get me the status of a disciple of the Holy Land, right?"

Zixia glared at him, but did not refuse.

Yao Xi stood aside, watching the two bickering, and suddenly found it somewhat amusing.

Now that things have come to this, she and Xu Jinhuan are in the same boat.

Complaining is useless; it's better to accept it calmly.

"Never mind," she said softly. "One's own strength is the only true measure of success."

Her parents are both high-ranking cultivators of the Yao Guang Holy Land, with the cultivation level of the Immortal Platform. Even if the Holy Land blames her for the broken dragon vein, she should not be in any trouble in the short term.

As long as one cultivates to a sufficient level, there is still room for maneuver.

At this moment, Xu Jinhuan was already imagining the possibility of a third, or even a fourth, host.

The celestial trees are rooted in fairies, allowing them to share in their scriptures, physiques, and even talents.

The stronger the target of natural selection, the better; the greater the potential, the better; and the character cannot be too bad either...

Several names flashed through his mind: Yaochi Saintess, Demon Princess Yan Ruyu, Ancient Princess, Ruthless Emperor.

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi bears the lineage of the Western Queen Mother; Princess Yan Ruyu of the Demon Clan is a descendant of the Azure Emperor; and the ancient princesses are all imperial princes...

And then there's that one, the Ruthless Great Emperor.

When those four words came out, even Xu Jinhuan himself was startled.

That person was the most ruthless and talented person in history, capable of devouring heaven and earth, and specializing in subduing all kinds of dissent.

"I wonder if, if this Tree of All Heavens were to take root in the Empress's Sea of ​​Bitterness, it would be possible to control it?"

If one could completely control the Ruthless Emperor, wouldn't one be invincible?
