Covering the Heavens: Fishing for the Heavens Starting from the Great Accomplished Holy Body

The Big Dipper Starfield, Eastern Wilderness.

Purple Mansion Sacred Land, Cloud Peak.

This is a secluded place of meditation deep within the sacred ground, shrouded in mist and shimmering with the glow of dawn all year round.

The mountain peaks are not high, but they are exceptionally beautiful. There are waterfalls cascading down like the Milky Way, and ancient trees that are as vigorous as dragons. The air is filled with pure spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and taking a breath makes you feel refreshed.

On an open-air stone platform near a cliff, a woman is sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed.

She wore an elegant light purple gauze dress, the hem of which spread out like clouds on the smooth jade ground.

Her long, black hair was tied up with a simple wooden hairpin, and a few strands of hair gently brushed against her fair, jade-like cheeks in the wind.

It was Zixia.

Years have passed, but her appearance has not changed much; she remains as beautiful as a pearl.

However, the girlish naiveté between her brows had quietly faded, replaced by a calm and aloof demeanor.

The pale golden innate Dao seal between her brows seemed to brighten slightly, becoming even more in line with the ethereal aura that flowed naturally around her and subtly resonated with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

At this moment, she is cultivating.

The Dao Palace Secret Realm: Cultivate the Five Internal Organs and Nourish the Spirit.

Her cultivation sequence was to first cultivate the spirit of the lungs, which governs the metal energy and is sharp and deadly.

From where Zixia's chest cavity was located, a faint white divine light shone through her clothes, and a faint clanging sound came from her lungs, as if an invisible divine sword was being tempered and humming within.

With each breath, the metallic spiritual energy of heaven and earth was drawn in, transforming into wisps of pale golden light visible to the naked eye. This light flowed in through her mouth, nose, and pores, eventually settling into her lungs and internal organs, tempering the divine treasure that was being nurtured.

This is a method recorded in the "Purple Mansion Immortal Scripture," which draws upon the spiritual energy of the five elements of heaven and earth to temper the corresponding five internal organs, gradually awakening the potential of the divine treasure, and ultimately giving birth to the deities of the Dao Palace.

As the core inheritance of the Purple Mansion Holy Land, the Purple Mansion Immortal Scripture is naturally profound and mysterious, enough to support cultivators to cultivate all the way to the Saint Lord level or even higher realms.

However, as Zixia's cultivation level improved day by day, especially after entering the Dao Palace Secret Realm, a subtle sense of disharmony began to emerge in her heart.

Her innate Daoist constitution made her naturally close to all Daos, and her sensitivity to and absorption of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth far surpassed that of ordinary people, so she should have made rapid progress.

However, every time he circulates the "Purple Mansion Immortal Scripture" to absorb spiritual energy into his body and temper his five internal organs, he always feels a kind of indescribable "obstruction".

It's as if there's an extremely thin yet resilient membrane separating this path of immortality from one's own Dao embryonic origin.

Although they can still cultivate, their efficiency is much higher than that of ordinary disciples.

However, she could sense that a portion of the spiritual energy she absorbed was invisibly lost during the transformation and adaptation to her own constitution, preventing her from fully unleashing the potential of her Dao embryo.

The elders in the holy land had subtly hinted that her physique was too special, being the legendary innate Dao embryo.

This type of physique is extremely rare, and the most suitable cultivation method is not the "Purple Mansion Immortal Scripture," but the legendary "Western Emperor Scripture."

In the past, the founder of the Yaochi Holy Land, the Western Queen Mother, attained the Dao and became an emperor with her innate Dao fetus physique.

The "Western Emperor Scripture" he created is the only supreme scripture that can truly tap into the potential of the innate Dao embryo to the extreme.

However, as the core imperial scripture of the Yaochi Holy Land, the "Western Emperor Scripture" is extremely well guarded and cannot be obtained by anyone other than the core true disciples of Yaochi.

Although the Purple Mansion Holy Land is also a major religion, it is almost impossible to obtain the complete inheritance of the "Western Emperor Scripture".

Ultimately, it's a matter of the cultivation technique not being a good match for one's physique...

Zixia sighed inwardly, suppressing a trace of helplessness.

She calmed her mind and continued to follow the methods of the immortal scriptures, drawing upon the metal energy of her lungs.

This time, perhaps due to a slight fluctuation in his mind, the divine power flowing through his lungs experienced a very subtle stagnation, causing the divine treasure that was being tempered to tremble slightly, and the golden spiritual energy he was absorbing was also disrupted for a moment.

Although she steadied herself immediately, a slight dull pain still came from her chest.

......

Interrupted from her cultivation, Zixia slowly opened her eyes, a trace of weariness flashing across them.

She sighed softly and subconsciously raised her hand, wanting to take out a calming and concentration pill from her personal storage artifact.

However, when his fingers touched the medicine bottle, he inadvertently bumped into something else placed next to it.

It was a palm-sized amulet, neither gold nor stone, with a deep dark color and intricate, strange swirling patterns on its surface.

It feels slightly cool to the touch and has a delicate texture.

It was that "little trinket" that Senior Li had casually given her at home years ago.

Over the past few years, she has always carried it with her and occasionally takes it out to look at it.

Aside from its strange material and peculiar patterns, and the inability to sense any spiritual energy fluctuations, there are no other unusual features.

Over time, she came to regard it merely as an ordinary object with a unique design, carrying a memory of her homeland, and did not pay it much attention.

At this moment, as her fingertips touched the cold rune, perhaps due to the emotional turmoil caused by her recent setback in cultivation, she inexplicably did not reach for the pill, but instead held the dark rune in her palm.

The cool touch calmed her down a little.

Unconsciously, she channeled a wisp of her Dao Palace divine power, which had become slightly disordered due to the stagnation of her cultivation earlier, through her fingertips into the rune.

This was an unintentional act, just like how ordinary people unconsciously rub jade when handling it.

However, the moment her faint wisp of lung-gold divine power touched the rune...

A sudden change has occurred!

hum!

The dark rune in his palm, which had been dormant for years without any abnormalities, suddenly glowed faintly through its nested vortex patterns.

An indescribable, seemingly all-encompassing, subtle suction force was born from the center of the rune.

The wisp of lung-metal divine power that Zixia injected was like a mud ox entering the sea, instantly swallowed up completely!

Not only that.

The sudden suction force seemed to have been "activated".

It was no longer satisfied with that wisp of divine power, but spontaneously began to seize the metallic spiritual energy that had gathered in the surrounding world because of Zixia's cultivation, but was slightly restless and dissipated due to the stagnation of the cultivation technique!

What shocked Zixia even more was that this suction force seemed to have some strange "filtering" and "conversion" properties.

After it absorbed the slightly restless golden spiritual energy, the rune itself trembled slightly, and then fed back a wisp of extremely pure, gentle, and... faintly more compatible with Zixia's own Dao embryo origin.

This "processed" energy naturally flowed along the meridians in her arm and into the divine treasure located in her lungs.

The lungs, which had been aching and progressing slowly due to the sluggishness of the exercise and the earlier disruption, now felt a comfortable coolness under the nourishment of this pure and gentle energy.

The invisible "membrane" that had been preventing her from perfectly converting spiritual energy seemed to have been slightly "softened" by this strange energy.

Although the effect was extremely weak and fleeting, the rune quickly returned to silence, as if everything that had just happened was merely an illusion.

But Zixia sensed it clearly.

That feeling of smoothness, with the slight reduction in resistance, is real!

She suddenly opened her eyes, looked down and stared intently at the dark rune in her palm that had once again become ordinary, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief and shock.
