Covering the Sky: Great Accomplished Holy Body

Xiao Ping'an took out a stone box and handed it to Xiao Yan.

After Xiao Yan opened it, he immediately felt his blood boil.

One of the small jade bottles was empty; the golden holy body essence inside had already been injected into Xiao Yan's body by Xiao Ping'an.

The other small jade bottle, only the size of a thumb, contained bright red blood.

Faced with this bottle of blood, Xiao Yan's body emitted a thunderous roar, and the golden blood boiled, resonating with the small jade bottle.

An eternal golden halo seemed to appear around his body.

It was as if a true immortal had descended, with various divine lights swirling around his body, and his aura seemed to be that of an invincible holy body being revived.

The crimson glow caused the golden blood in Xiao Yan's body to surge even more violently, and the bright red blood gave him a strange sense of awe.

It took a long time for me to calm down.

Upon closer inspection, the bright red blood no longer emitted a dazzling light, but instead radiated a quiet and peaceful gentle glow.

That approachable aura made him feel ethereal and transcendent.

As he watched the bright red liquid gather together and form a human shape, like a human-shaped elixir, he sensed a special power within it.

"It is only when the Holy Body reaches its peak that the golden blood turns into this bright red."

"I have given you this golden holy body origin and essence blood. I hope you will make good use of it."

"This thing is priceless. If people find out, they'll really break their heads."

"This thing can allow a damaged sacred body to break through, shatter the shackles of heaven and earth, and become an invincible sacred body."

The essence of these bloodlines, the immortal divine essence, were all extracted by Xiao Ping'an from digging up graves and robbing tombs on the Sacred Body Ancestral Star.

This is the most precious thing in the body of the Great Accomplished Holy Body.

Those old folks were unwilling to extract the essence and leave it for their descendants, and now it all benefits Xiao Ping'an's descendants.

It seemed a bit shameless, but Xiao Ping'an thought about how many people had chased him and nearly killed him because of the ancestor of the Holy Body lineage, and he felt that the matter was even.

Xiao Yan looked at the bright red blood, his body trembling slightly with excitement.

Looking at the old ancestor Xiao Ping'an in front of him, he suddenly felt that his image was tall and heroic.

"This contains the essence of the Holy Body and fragments of the Great Dao Laws, which, like a shadow, help you temper your Holy Blood."

"Ancestor!" Xiao Yan was so excited he couldn't speak.

Xiao Ping'an smiled and said, "This is a reward for you. It's like standing on the shoulders of giants, so you can stand higher and see further in the future. But I hope you can forge your own path."

Xiao Ping'an helped Xiao Yan sever all his cultivation, allowing him to start cultivating anew.

He personally helped build the foundation using the finest natural materials.

He was taught the scriptures most suitable for his practice.

It not only contains Xiao Ping'an's own scriptures, but also the secret techniques for cultivating the Holy Body.

After watching him unlock the Sea of ​​Bitterness and cultivate all the way to the fourth level of the secret realm, they left him some treasures for self-defense before leaving.

. . .

The Sacred Body Ancestral Star also has a mysterious place that can rival the Overlord Body Ancestral Cave on the Overlord Body Ancestral Star.

At this moment, Xiao Ping'an sat cross-legged on a Dao platform in the mysterious land of the Holy Body. The myriad Daos of heaven and earth roared, and the sounds of the Great Dao came from time to time.

He sat cross-legged under the ancient peach tree, silently using the Heavenly Heart Imprint to comprehend the myriad ways of heaven and earth, constantly deducing his own Great Dao and Law, and further perfecting his scriptures.

When he first attained the Dao and became Emperor, he followed the example of Ye Fan, the Heavenly Emperor, by breaking the Heavenly Heart Mark and transcending all paths of heaven and earth, treading upon all paths.

This is a very special road.

Xiao Ping'an walked this path very steadily.

When he was cultivating his spiritual practice here, he would put one leaf after another of the ancient tea leaves directly into his mouth.

He had already eaten hundreds of leaves before.

However, he still had more than 3000 tea leaves in his possession.

Therefore, I don't feel bad using it at all.

Each leaf of the Great Dao represents a different Great Dao Law. Whenever he swallows a leaf, he enters a special state and comprehends another novel Great Dao Law.

The leaves of this Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree truly deserve to be called the most top-tier Enlightenment Treasure in this world; simply by placing them in one's mouth, one can feel the mysterious laws of the Great Dao.

Whenever he uses the leaves of the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree, he feels as if his spiritual awareness has been greatly enhanced.

Many obscure and difficult-to-understand principles suddenly became easy to perceive and comprehend.

He used the leaves of this ancient tea tree to comprehend the myriad principles of heaven and earth, while also continuously perfecting his own path and methods.

He wanted to push his ancient imperial scriptures to their limits.

Thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Ping'an, standing beneath the peach tree, exuded an increasingly powerful aura, surrounded by 108 halos of golden light, making him appear as if a true immortal had descended.

After the last leaf of the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree was eaten, Xiao Ping'an finally opened his eyes.

His eyes held scenes of the ever-changing universe and the illusion of galaxies falling apart. The divine light emanating from his eyes was like a celestial sword, making it impossible to look directly at him.

His entire body exuded the supreme divine aura of the Great Dao.

His body surface was covered with mysterious flames and lightning.

The scripture he created possesses both thunder and fire attributes.

Whether it's called the Thunderfire Sutra or the Fire Thunder Sutra, there's no problem.

Calling it the Holy Emperor's Scripture is fine too.

Perhaps it could also be called the Holy Emperor's Heavenly Merit.

After attaining the Dao and becoming an emperor, Xiao Ping'an spent over a thousand years finally pushing his ancient imperial scriptures to their limit.

Not only did they create their own unique ancient imperial scriptures, but they also pushed the exclusive cultivation techniques of the Holy Body lineage to their extreme.

The actual deduction reached the level of the Emperor.

This Holy Emperor Scripture is based on Xiao Ping'an's Holy Body Bloodline and incorporates his understanding of the Dao of Thunder and Fire, evolving the destructive power of Thunder and Fire to its extreme.

Even compared to the most supreme ancient emperor celestial scriptures, it is definitely one of the strongest scriptures.

There is no strongest scripture in this world, only the scripture that is most suitable for oneself.

This Holy Emperor Scripture elaborates on the mysteries of the Holy Body's constitution and incorporates various forbidden secret techniques of Xiao Ping'an.

This includes the forbidden secret technique that Xiao Ping'an specifically used to counter the legendary Nine Secrets.

This process of refining his own Great Dao and Laws allowed Xiao Ping'an to further enhance his strength, and his realm and Dao Fruit reached complete perfection.

They truly possessed combat power at the level of an emperor.

Apart from the Emperor and the Undying Emperor, Xiao Ping'an was confident that he could kill the other ancient emperors and supreme beings within ten moves.

He could also sense that the potential of this first move was basically exhausted.

While one's Qi and blood might increase somewhat, one's strength is unlikely to increase significantly.

Only after living a second life will their strength increase significantly again.

After attaining the Dao and becoming an emperor, one's strength is basically stable once one's realm and Dao fruit are solidified.

Then, as one's Qi and blood increase, one may reach a peak period, and then decline from that peak, slowly moving towards the old age of the first life. As Qi and blood weaken, one's strength may also decrease.

Then, after living a second life, as their vital energy and blood increase, their strength will increase again.

If one can live to a third life, their strength and lifespan will increase dramatically once again.

However, to truly increase one's strength, one must live a new life based on one's own abilities.

In this new life, born from the elixir of immortality, one's strength will not increase significantly compared to the previous life.

Xiao Ping'an came to this world and worked hard to cultivate. Now he has attained the Dao and become an emperor, which can be said to be the initial realization of his dream.

But for him, becoming emperor was just a new beginning.

The next goal will be to figure out how to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world.

To become an immortal in the mortal world, one must undergo repeated transformations in order to survive.

Every transformation is a brush with death.

But if successful, the benefits will be numerous.

Not only will their lifespan increase dramatically, but their strength will also increase rapidly.

This can be seen from Ye Fan's journey to immortality in the mortal world as described in the original text.

Although each transformation was fraught with danger, Xiao Ping'an remained steadfast in his determination to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world.

If he truly fails to transform and perishes, then he will accept it.

Throughout history, so many ancient emperors and supreme beings have researched methods to transform themselves and live a new life, but in the end, they all chose to cut off their own lives.

It's because if the transformation fails, there won't be enough time to cut oneself off, and there won't even be a chance to become the Dark Sovereign.

In addition, the legendary Emperor once opened the path to immortality, which gave many people a glimmer of hope.

That means as long as you persevere until the path to immortality opens, you will have the opportunity to enter the immortal realm and live a long and prosperous life.

Although the Emperor's attempt to ascend to immortality through his sect at the end of the mythological era failed, many people still harbor fantasies of becoming immortals and entering the immortal realm.

Those dark sovereigns basically pinned their hopes on the path to immortality.

They had no idea what the true path to enlightenment was in this world.

Having read the trilogy, Xiao Ping'an naturally knew that in this world, firmly walking the path of immortality in the mortal realm was the most correct path.

This world also allows one to become an immortal, and even a more powerful immortal in the mortal realm.

In Xiao Ping'an's view, taking the path to immortality was simply a dead end.

Opening the gate to the Immortal Realm is extremely difficult.

The path to immortality in the Big Dipper is a complete scam. Without the strength of three mortal immortals, it's impossible to open that portal.

The only correct path is the Ascension Path to Immortality on the Flying Immortal Star, but it only opens once every few million years, and only two or three people can succeed.

With so many Dark Sovereigns, if that era were to come, they would definitely fight like dogs, resulting in rivers of blood.

Xiao Ping'an thought of the Undying Emperor again. He would occasionally use various methods to lure the Dark Supremes to attack the Path to Immortality, and then launch a sneak attack on the Path to Immortality to seize their original essence and blood.

It seems that even the Undying Emperor is a formidable enemy to the Dark Lord.

That Immortal Taoist looked like someone who mingled among the Dark Sovereigns to gather information, and even spread rumors to lure them into a trap.

No matter how the world changes, Xiao Ping'an will steadfastly walk the path of transformation from mortal to immortal.

He will continue to transform in this world life after life until the years no longer affect him, and he will truly ascend to immortality in the mortal realm.

Even above the level of a mortal immortal, Xiao Ping'an yearned for the legendary state of the pinnacle of immortality.

Although it's unclear how Chu Feng and Chu Tiandi in the original text managed to do it, Xiao Ping'an believes that as long as each step is perfected, there will be a greater chance of glimpsing that realm.

Judging from Ye Fan's several transformations in the original text, he was already able to live a long and healthy life by the time he reached the end of his eighth life.

Aside from the first life he lived naturally, and the second life he lived after consuming the elixir of immortality, if you calculate it this way, Ye Fan, the Heavenly Emperor, actually only went through six transformations before touching the threshold of immortality.

It seems simple, but in the entire world of Shrouding the Heavens, only a handful of people have successfully walked the path to immortality in the mortal realm.

Emperor, Undying Emperor, Underworld Lord Duan De, Ye Fan, Ruthless Emperor, and Wushi Emperor—there are only six people in total.

If we include that minor character, the Mortal Immortal, from the Strange World, there are only seven people.

Xiao Ping'an was actually very curious about the Underworld Lord Duan De.

This old fellow has been burying himself life after life since the era of the Desolate Emperor, and he transforms himself in the burial ground from time to time.

In the era of Shrouding the Heavens, the corpses became spirits in one life after another.

They created some kind of Nine Reincarnation Seal Combination.

Even disregarding the past, starting from the mythological era, this old fellow experienced the mythological era, the primordial era, the desolate era, and the post-desolate era, until Ye Fan became a mortal immortal, at which point he slowly became a mortal immortal himself.

Moreover, only the Underworld Lord Duan De has ever traveled this path.

Others who tried to imitate him either failed or even caused a horrific incident involving corpses, which is rather frustrating.

In the entire world of Shrouding the Heavens, the first person to become a Mortal Immortal should be the Emperor.

According to Xiao Ping'an's guess, the Red Dust Immortal Transformation Method used by this Emperor Venerable should be similar to that used by Ye Fan.

According to the original text, the two characters are not only very similar, but also share some similar experiences.

They even established a Heavenly Court, and all wanted to lead the people to ascend to immortality.

As for the Undying Emperor, he used his racial talent to devour the essence and blood of the Supreme Being, and lived through rebirth time and time again.

This kind of talent has too many drawbacks in its transformation. Not only does it take a long time, but the improvement in strength is also relatively slow, and it is also inconsistent.

Judging from the original text, the Immortal Emperor's path to immortality in the mortal world seems rather weak.

The fact that he couldn't defeat the Great Emperor Wushi in his second incarnation in his later years shattered his prestige completely.

Emperor Wushi possessed a special physique called the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo, which Xiao Ping'an greatly admired. He also wanted to find an Innate Dao Embryo and hoped to cultivate one himself.

After all, according to the original text, this physique is comparable to the Chaos Body, and in fact, judging from its performance, it is even more powerful than the Chaos Body.

With Xiao Ping'an's super holy body, which has proven itself to be an emperor, as long as he can find a primordial Dao embryo and give birth to a child, that child will definitely be ridiculously strong.

He may not be stronger than the Great Emperor Wushi, but he is definitely a top-notch expert.

Looking at the performances of Emperor Wushi and Ye Yishui in the original text, Xiao Ping'an became even more eager for this physique.

Every now and then he would deduce when a primordial Dao embryo might be born.

He was determined to acquire this physique.

Once it is born, it will inevitably try to seize it.

Even if it means kidnapping, we'll kidnap her and take her home.

According to the original text, the physique of the innate Dao embryo has appeared many times in history, but only the Western Emperor successfully attained the Dao and became an emperor.

What people don't know is the value of this physique, which is that it can cultivate an innate sacred body and Dao embryo comparable to the Chaos Body.

Since Xiao Ping'an knew this, he would definitely not let this opportunity pass.

As for the ruthless empress, her ability to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world was also due to many incredible transformations.

In particular, the ruthless empress transformed into a flawless chaotic body in her second life, which is extremely valuable.

Xiao Ping'an carefully analyzed these six powerful individuals who had become Immortals of the Mortal World and concluded that Ye Fan, the Heavenly Emperor Ye, had taken the shortest time to transform and, relatively speaking, seemed to be the least dangerous.

However, everyone's path to enlightenment is different. Even if Xiao Ping'an were to follow Ye Fan's path, he might not necessarily succeed.

Therefore, Xiao Ping'an still needs to deduce his own unique path to immortality in the mortal world based on his own Great Dao and Law.

After all, each of those six immortals in the mortal world has a different path to the Great Dao.

The path to immortality in the mortal world involves different methods of transformation.

Now that Xiao Ping'an possesses the Elixir of Immortality and has obtained multiple fruits from it, he has ample confidence to live a second life.

However, Xiao Ping'an had made up his mind to live out his second life as much as possible with his own strength, and to avoid taking the elixir of immortality if possible.

Compared to those Dark Sovereigns, Xiao Ping'an was not so worried.

His biggest worry was the Emperor and the Immortal Emperor, the two sixth brothers.

He didn't care about the other Dark Sovereigns' sneak attacks, but the sneak attacks from these two old men made Xiao Ping'an feel uneasy.

Based on the timeline, these two old things must have undergone many transformations.

The probability of the Emperor taking action is relatively small; he may have already quietly entered the strange world.

There don't seem to be many historical accounts of the Emperor attacking others, but it's possible that he attacked and then framed the Immortal Emperor.

The Undying Emperor often hides away, probably because he has discovered that the Emperor is not completely dead and is filled with fear of him, which is why he keeps it hidden.

It might not just be for the purpose of being the sixth brother to launch a sneak attack.

Xiao Ping'an wasn't sure if the Emperor would make a move, but he was certain that the old scoundrel, the Undying Emperor, would.

After all, according to many descriptions in the original text and records in many historical books, anyone with great strength, special physique, or special bloodline would be ambushed by the Immortal Emperor in their later years.

No emperor or ancient ruler could guarantee that he would be able to live out his old age in peace.

Unless one is willing to cut off their own life early on, sneak into the forbidden zone, and band together with those dark sovereigns for warmth.

Otherwise, it would be very easy to be ambushed when alone.

The powerful Holy Emperors of the human race, the Yin Holy Emperor and the Sun Holy Emperor, were ambushed in their later years because they failed to infiltrate the forbidden zone and band together.

The Sun Emperor was devoured, leaving no trace of his body; it was truly despicable.

Although it was Xiao Ping'an's first life, he had tried every possible way to extend his lifespan.

For example, he swallowed the Primordial Life Stone, various medicinal kings, and even a demigod herb.

According to his calculations, his lifespan in his first life should be around 25000 to 26000 years.

If nothing unexpected happens, his lifespan should be similar to that of Ye Fan in his first life.

It might be a little more, or a little less, but it's roughly the same.

In other words, he has nearly 20,000 years to comprehend the Tao, cultivate himself, and deduce the method to live a new life.
