Covering the Sky: Rise Starting with Card Draws

This wasn't him being nitpicky; for a novice who didn't understand the art of devouring and couldn't properly utilize enemy corpses, this was probably already quite good.

However, for a gourmand like him, refining it manually is obviously cleaner and more efficient.

However, it wasn't entirely useless to him, since manual refining also carried certain risks.

There are many cases of bosses who died because they ate unclean food, were ambushed, suffered an upset stomach, and ultimately died suddenly.

After being refined by the Tree of Life, all hidden dangers are eliminated, and the resulting fruit is completely safe to eat.

Moreover, the Tree of Life possesses unique energy conversion and purification functions, which may be a lifesaver in some terrifying, desolate places filled with poisonous miasma and corpse energy.

With more patient refinement and nurturing over a period of time, it may bring even more surprises to its owner.

However, for now, the greatest benefit of this verdant Tree of Life to Chen Hao is that it helps with the expansion, stabilization, and transformation of his inner world, assisting in its growth and making the energy cycle healthier.

In addition, it can provide Chen Hao with some enlightenment and help him comprehend the relevant laws of life.

To Chen Hao's surprise, after defeating and killing the ancient royal family member with the vertical eye from beyond the realm, he received two card-drawing opportunities. He drew the Heavenly Eye, which resembled a necklace, and Yang Jian's idealistic enlightenment that transformed his love and hate into boundless magical power.

Both of these are from the TV series "The Legend of Nezha". In the series, the Heavenly Eye is actually a magical artifact that was passed down from the Jade Emperor to Yao Ji, and then from Yao Ji to Yang Jian.

However, according to Master Yuding, everyone has a third eye, but with normal cultivation, it would probably take a thousand or eight hundred years to develop it.

Therefore, having the Heavenly Eye Treasure is essentially like inheriting a high-level account, allowing you to directly experience the effects of a fully-fledged Heavenly Eye. At the same time, this Heavenly Eye Treasure can also enhance and amplify the user's own Heavenly Eye endowment.

Once one activates their Heavenly Eye and combines it with the power of the Heavenly Eye of the magic weapon, the effect will be greater than the sum of its parts.

Compared to the Heavenly Eye, Chen Hao was more interested in Yang Jian's insights into the surge in combat power caused by his idealism.

After all, he cultivated the Great Dao of Human Desires, and he was particularly craving this kind of power that could transform one's extreme hatred or love into boundless magical power, a power of the mind that could boost combat strength to an almost limitless degree.

If one can unravel the mysteries within, Chen Hao will surely be able to break free from the constraints imposed by his friend, Emperor Hengyu, and combine the advantages of his ancestors with his own unique characteristics to ultimately forge a personal path of human desire that surpasses even his distant ancestors.

However, Yang Jian's fighting power fluctuates too much due to his idealism. When his hatred reaches its peak, he can kill his comrades with a single axe stroke, making him completely unstoppable.

However, after Yang Jian was persuaded by Chang'e's words to suppress his hatred and let it subside, the boundless magical power he possessed due to that hatred also quietly faded away. He fell powerlessly from the sky into the sea and almost died.

Another example of knowledge transmission is "Six-Winged Sword Technique" from Pili Puppet Show, but Chen Hao lost interest after just one glance.

  

This is an extremely fast sword technique, and the higher the level of the sword technique, the more angel wings are formed by the sword energy behind the user. It is a pretty good martial art, and the special effects are quite cool. However, the most famous user of this sword technique, Yu Ren Fei Jing, suffered a terrible fate.

He has the so-called Three Tribulations and Seven Major Limits. The Three Tribulations mean that he will have three tribulations in his life, while the Seven Major Limits are: harming his father, harming his mother, severing ties with his relatives, losing his teacher, breaking off friendships, severing ties with kindness and righteousness, and having no love in his life!

A true lone wolf, a hapless martial arts character who plays the erhu for himself, he's got it all—the cuckolding, the master-abusing, incompetent, melodramatic, and disgusting tropes of martial arts.

Just one glance at the Six-Winged Sword Technique made Chen Hao feel as if he could hear the mournful sound of an erhu.

Although the creator of the sword technique was not Yu Ren, but his master who was killed by his cursed fate, Chen Hao's eyelids still twitched. Fearing that he would be tainted by bad luck, he glanced at it quickly and then skipped it.

Following this is "The Metamorphosis Technique" from Jin Guang Puppet Show, whose representative figure is the Net Man.

This is a miraculous skill that allows one to die and be reborn repeatedly. Each time one dies and is reborn, one becomes stronger and may even gain new power due to environmental influences. However, the side effect is that one will inevitably lose some memories randomly.

We will live forever and die forever. We will forget and discard the beauty of life, and use forgetting to get rid of the root of pain. In the end, we may be no one.

Moreover, for humans, it might not be as suitable as for demon geniuses like the Netman, and the effect might not be as ideal.

After reading it, Chen Hao felt that the Transformation Technique was still a bit too strong, not as good as the Heavenly Silkworm Skill wheelchair practiced by Yun Feiyang, the object of its homage.

Just look at the growth points and the underlying knowledge; even if you want to practice, you can't directly practice the original version. You should at least modify it yourself.

After briefly reviewing the Transformation Technique, Chen Hao continued to look at the other rewards. He actually drew the complete knowledge inheritance from Tianzhe, the creator of the Dead Kingdom in the Pili Puppet Show.

"The legacy of the Celestials? Another reward related to angels. Defeating angels grants a chance to draw cards, and drawing an angel-type character's legacy is not unusual."

I remember that the Abandoned Emperor also seemed to have quite a few angelic elements, but unfortunately I didn't get any rewards related to the Abandoned Emperor this time.

Chen Hao accepted and earnestly appreciated this rare knowledge inheritance.

However, compared to the martial arts of the Celestials, he was more curious about the related incantations, especially the regeneration magic used by the Celestials to create life.

After all, the Celestial One once used regeneration magic to nurture the life force of the Dead Kingdom, creating the seeds of the Demon Clan, the Flood Clan, the Pi Clan, and even other various demonic life forms.

With the seeds of life, in order to propagate life, the Celestials used magic combined with divine power to create six witches to produce resources of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

This means of creating and regenerating life is far more precious to Chen Hao than simple destruction.

However, as creators, they don't seem to have absolute control over their works or the imprint of their ideas.

The forbidden blood seal used to manipulate the life and death of all beings in the Land of the Dead is merely a bomb that can be detonated at any time; it cannot affect the mind.

This means that if the created race is full of useless people, then it is completely useless.

If there is an outstanding genius, such a brilliant person is often very individualistic and completely uncontrollable; they would never submit, even to death.

The most outstanding creations often do not obey the commands of their creators; they have their own ideas and principles, and may even rebel against their creators.

However, Chen Hao has no intention of creating a new race and becoming a creator for the time being. He is not like the Celestial One who is holding his breath and trying to prove himself, nor is he autistic.

For him, being able to learn this magic and comprehend its core secrets would undoubtedly advance his understanding of the way of life's creation, and that would be enough.

Moreover, this thing can obviously be used in combination with other powers to create creation. Chen Hao pondered whether he could try to use the power of bloodline to create and regenerate the ancestral phantom outside the body, truly nurture the seed of life, and allow the endless battle soul to obtain its own physical body and truly be reborn.

Combined with the art of turning beans into soldiers, nurturing life and sowing seeds of life, perhaps... billions of living beings as soldiers and millions of gods and demons as generals is not impossible.
