Covering the Heavens: Its fortune endures forever, sweeping across all heavens.

Since the setting stipulates that only the Four Saints can break through, he will not trap the Four Saints, but only the Two Saints.

The previous sword master always fought four people at once, how could he not be defeated!

Looking up at the sky, Qin Tian murmured to himself, "However, there is no need to worry about the Dao of Spiritual Treasures. As long as the Spiritual Treasure Starfield is not destroyed, the spirit of the Immortal Slaughtering Array Diagram will not summon the remaining Dao of Spiritual Treasures within the Spiritual Treasure Starfield."

After all, millions of years have passed, and only so many of the Great Dao rules of Lingbao Tianzun remain.

It can be said that every bit used is a bit less; in the original work, even when the Four Swords of Zhuxian were taken away, it did not use this power.

In fact, if Qin Tian didn't possess the highest-ranking Spacetime Double Pupil, he wouldn't have been able to detect the existence of this power at all.

"As expected of a Celestial Venerable with a legend of slaying immortals!"

"So, Lingbao Tianzun might really still have a glimmer of hope!" Qin Tian rested his chin on his hand and looked down into the deepest part of the Life Spring, where tens of thousands of marks were particularly conspicuous.

The Celestial Venerable lived for ten thousand years in one lifetime. Based on this calculation, the Lingbao Celestial Venerable must have lived for at least four lifetimes as the Supreme Celestial Venerable.

"Lingbao Tianzun is also a master at the Heavenly Emperor level!"

"No wonder he was able to kill the Immortal Dao of the Tribulation-Crossing Celestial Venerable." Qin Tian said thoughtfully. The Tribulation-Crossing Celestial Venerable was a Heavenly Emperor-level powerhouse, and the Spiritual Treasure Celestial Venerable who was able to kill the Great Dao he left behind was naturally also a Heavenly Emperor-level powerhouse.

In this degenerate age, even the Great Emperor's lifespan is no more than ten thousand years.

The strong may not survive, but those who survive are definitely strong.

The God Emperor reigned for 100,000 years, while the Undying Heavenly Emperor spanned the Primordial and Ancient Eras. Every being who lived for over 100,000 years was, without exception, a top-tier being at the Heavenly Emperor level.

Qin Tian shifted his gaze to the four killing intents beneath the Life Spring. They were ancient and natural, yet they exuded boundless killing intent. Scenes of slaying gods and immortals appeared on the dark red sword blades.

No two of the four killing swords have the same pattern. Some depict scenes from the novel "Zhu Xian," others show a sea of ​​blood destroying the universe, and still others depict countless spirits lying dead.

A chilling aura swept across the land. Each killing sword seemed to have devoured the blood of billions of living beings. Though it remained motionless and still, it exuded an aura of cataclysmic destruction, threatening to shatter the universe.

"Hmm, interesting. Does the Wheel of Life still retain its activity?" Qin Tian swept across the Ten Directions Life Spring, observing the source from a high-dimensional perspective. The Wheel of Life still retained a trace of activity, making the Life Spring like living water, constantly surging and absorbing external essence to ensure that the divine spring liquid within would not mutate.

A knowing glint flashed in Qin Tian's eyes, confirming his second conjecture: "I was wondering why... Logically speaking... a life spring that has lost its life force should become the most terrifying poison in the world. How could it possibly have the effect of helping people transform and be reborn?"

The life spring represents vitality. If a living being dies, the life spring will inevitably collapse, and the life essence contained within it will naturally dissipate into nothingness.

Even if the Fountain of Life manages not to collapse by chance, the immortal liquid it contains will inevitably evolve into something ominous, just like the Emperor's Fiend, which transforms from saint to demon, with the most sacred blood and energy turning into the most terrifying evil energy.

The same principle applies to the Fountain of Life; it can transform from life to death. Once the most vigorous vitality degenerates, it will become the deepest death.

However, the fact that the Heavenly Venerable's Life Spring still retains a trace of life means that the Heavenly Venerable Lingbao himself also has a trace of life remaining.

"In other words, Lingbao Tianzun is not dead!" Qin Tian understood and said with some enlightenment, "Or rather, Lingbao Tianzun is hovering between life and death."

He wasn't the only one who saw this; others in the past also saw this and left behind rumors.

When the Four Swords of Zhuxian and the Zhuxian Formation Diagram are combined, it will be the time when Lingbao Tianzun returns.

This rumor is true, but the order is wrong.

It should be when Lingbao Tianzun returns, which is the time when the Zhuxian Formation Diagram and the Four Zhuxian Swords are combined into one.

Chapter 392 The Emperor's Arrangement, Resurrecting the Spirit Treasure Celestial Venerable, and the Reincarnation Dao Attainment Method

"But it seems that Lingbao Tianzun did not win the resurrection match!" Qin Tian sighed. The path of the Immortal Path in the Mortal World is incredibly difficult and defies the heavens. Even the Heavenly Emperor dared not claim that he could definitely succeed.

Nine lifetimes of transformation, one change in each lifetime, one life and death in each lifetime.

Every transformation is a struggle between life and death, a sublimation of the Tao, shedding the old body and living a new life.

This is destined to be incredibly difficult; not everyone can transform as cleanly and decisively as Ye Fan, who can live a lifetime in a single sitting or standing position.

For many others, such as the Immortal Emperor and the Celestial Venerable Lingbao, the process of transforming into a single life can take hundreds of thousands of years, and there is even a possibility of failure in the transformation.

"Hmm, let's join forces to set up a reincarnation array!"

"Let's see if we can reshape the soul of Lingbao Tianzun," Qin Tian said eagerly. This was a challenge, a subject, and an incredible feat.

But once it's done, the rewards will be substantial.

This is equivalent to a small-scale "enlightenment," just like the forbidden zone of the six realms of reincarnation. It is a different way of enlightenment, and the result of enlightenment is also different.

But all of these are the results of the cycle of reincarnation, like the blind men touching an elephant; this is the process of touching.

What is the Tao?

As the ancients said: "The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. The name that can be named is not the eternal name."

Everything is beyond our grasp; everything belongs to the natural world. Forcing it is useless; non-action brings freedom.

The Dao is elusive, so how can one comprehend it? One can only perceive it, but is the Dao that one perceives truly correct? Can it connect with the ancient Dao that exists in the darkness?

This requires one to "prove the truth" for oneself.

Spiritual practice is just like that; it requires touching this and touching that, so that the specific form of the "image" and the "Tao" can be preserved in the mind.

Then, through proving the Way and verifying one's understanding, one can piece together various fragments of the iceberg and integrate them into the eternal and unchanging Great Way. Only in this way can one transcend everything, stand at the end of the Great Way, and be almost omnipotent.

Qin Tian intended to use the body of the spiritual treasure as a medium to verify the Dao of Reincarnation in the dark, to prove the Dao, and to grasp a corner of the eternal Dao.

If he could awaken the soul of Lingbao Tianzun, then his past desire to awaken the Void Emperor and the Hengyu Emperor would come true.

After all, it was such a pity that the Void Emperor was killed.

As the second emperor to forge a celestial artifact, if he were allowed to live another lifetime, he might become another emperor.

After all, he had already reached the peak of an ordinary Great Emperor. If he were given another ten thousand years to calm down and cultivate, and thoroughly digest the foundation of the Blood War Great Emperor, he might very well reach the Heavenly Emperor level.

Ye Fan followed this path: conquering supreme beings, digesting and comprehending their insights, fighting against multiple supreme beings, and then digesting and comprehending their insights again. After each battle with a formidable enemy, he would experience a significant improvement.

Until finally breaking through all paths and attaining the Heavenly Emperor.

To truly possess the combat power of that level!

"It's worth a try!" Su Yunxian was very interested in this and opened her Heavenly Eye, but she could hardly see through the gushing life spring. There was an immense pressure here. Even after countless years, this place was still a mysterious forbidden area.

Therefore, Su Yunxian decisively went down into the Life Spring with Qin Tian.

Along the way, the scarlet Immortal-Slaying Sword unleashed boundless killing intent, causing the heavens and earth to change color, preventing them from continuing their descent.

Just a simple glance was enough to nearly shatter his eyes; the murderous intent was terrifying.

The killing intent unleashed by the Immortal Execution Sword was not the end of it; the other three killing swords also revealed their existence, evolving into a raging sea of ​​blood, leaving millions of corpses lying in wait.

Only when he truly faced these four deadly swords did he realize how terrifying this imperial weapon was.

Qin Tian decisively summoned the Immortal Ascension Cauldron. Stimulated by the extreme killing intent, the bird, beast, fish, and insect patterns on the Immortal Ascension Cauldron lit up, radiating celestial light that protected the two of them.

"Boom!"

The four swords of Zhuxian unleashed their unparalleled divine might, shooting out streaks of sword energy that pierced through the sea of ​​suffering, tore apart the universe, and directly cleaved many stars from the sky!

The four killing swords in the Fountain of Life have been revived, radiating astonishing power and boundless killing intent that has shaken the ages.

Each sword strike, its sharp edge fully revealed, struck the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, producing a clanging sound. The patterns of birds, beasts, fish, and insects on the cauldron dimmed. The Immortal Ascension Cauldron, which was already in fragments, cracked again under the attack of these four swords, even though it had been nourished by the Kunlun Immortal Ascension Ground.

"How powerful, how terrifying are the Four Swords of Zhuxian!" Qin Tian's expression was solemn; he had indeed underestimated the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

The four killing swords exuded a tragic aura, as if the gates of hell had been opened wide, or as if a primordial beast was charging in. Rolling sword energy surged upwards, causing the sky to collapse and the earth to split, and many stars in the sky were cleaved down.

In the sea of ​​suffering, black waves surged to the sky, with spray reaching hundreds of thousands of miles high, while stars fell like flying sand and stones, creating a terrifying and boundless scene.

This kind of atmosphere, this kind of domineering power, this kind of murderous aura, can truly be said to have shocked the world and is rarely seen in ancient times.

In an instant, it seemed as if the entire world had changed color, the heavens were stained with blood, everywhere was crimson, a stench of blood filled the air, and all sorts of strange phenomena unfolded: immortals shed blood, fairies wept tears, and all living beings perished...

"Go!" Qin Tian calmly summoned the Devouring Demon Jar, a complete Heavenly Emperor weapon, which was enough to suppress the Four Swords of Immortal Slaughter.

"Boom!"

The Devouring Heaven Demon Art unleashed its unparalleled divine might, hovering in the air and transforming into a black sun, with countless threads hanging down. Everything around it was dissipating, turning into part of the black sun. This fluctuation was too terrifying; all paths trembled and submitted.

However, the Four Swords of Zhuxian were not suppressed; instead, they unleashed an even more terrifying power.

A phantom of an ancient array appeared between heaven and earth, weaving together the principles of end and destruction, gradually solidifying and flowing with boundless killing intent.

The four swords of Zhuxian hung above the four gates. In an instant, killing intent piled up, and sword energy rolled like a dragon wall. Wherever it passed, space and time shattered, revealing pitch-black cracks. Any one of the sword energies was enough to kill a Great Sage.

"As expected of the Immortal Execution Sword!" Qin Tian raised an eyebrow. This weapon was too special, and in some ways it even surpassed the Heavenly Emperor's Weapon.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the entire Bitter Sea seemed to explode. The clash of extreme forces was on display here, with chaotic lightning dancing in the air. For a moment, all was silent, and the terror reached its peak.

The next moment, a violent roar erupted, followed by extreme stillness and then extreme violence.

All the heavens and myriad realms trembled, the stars above the Sea of ​​Bitterness shattered, and some fell in a flurry. The waves of the Sea of ​​Bitterness surged skyward and crashed into the depths of the universe.

The enormous stars were swept away by the sword energy, falling one by one and crashing into the dark sea of ​​bitterness, shattering the original tranquility of the star field and causing a great uproar.

"As expected of the progenitor of array formations, the master of array formations in the mythical era, he is truly amazing!" Qin Tian exclaimed. The coexistence of the four swords was a completely different state from the one enhanced by the array diagram.

Once the array was established, it resonated with the Great Dao of the Heavenly Venerable, becoming much stronger. It seemed as if the entire universe was responding to it and merging with all the Daos, ready to annihilate all of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Keep in mind that this is before the Immortal Slaughtering Formation has truly descended...

"We can't force it!" Qin Tian's brows twitched as he looked at it. The Spirit Treasure Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram could summon the Four Immortal Slaughtering Swords, and the Four Immortal Slaughtering Swords could naturally also summon the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram to transform into the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.

After the illusory image of the Immortal Slaughtering Formation appeared, the four swords of Immortal Slaughtering seemed to merge into one, unleashing even more terrifying power, as if the four killing swords had become one.

The Immortal Slayer is powerful, the Immortal Slayer is utterly annihilated, the Immortal Trapper is surrounded by red light, the Immortal Slayer's transformations are infinitely wondrous, and the Heavenly Venerable and Emperor's robes are stained with blood!

The four swords exuded a fierce killing aura, shaking the heavens and the earth! Rolling sword energy was like smoke from a wolf's beacon, or like thousands of silver rivers falling down, boundless and rampant in all directions. Each sword energy struck the Devouring Demon Jar, producing a clanging sound.

The Devouring Demon Jar stood motionless, like a black hole, from which strands of dark light descended, crushing all the ancient heavens. The jar was simple and unadorned, as if made of pottery, and it neutralized all attacks.

While the Four Swords of Zhuxian are stunning, the Devouring Demon Jar is no less impressive. As an imperial weapon forged by the former Ruthless Great Emperor in his first incarnation, it possesses its own mysteries and supreme divine power.

Once unleashed, it will be enough to rival those who have attained enlightenment through unorthodox methods.

Qin Tian pondered, "With the boundless faith of the other side of the gods as its energy source, these four swords could probably be revived at will!"

As the two waves of supreme imperial weapons collided continuously, the entire Heavenly Venerable Sea of ​​Wheels was filled with turbulent waves and mournful cries, all submitting to these two supreme principles.

Qin Tian pondered for a moment, then moved his hands to outline a corner of the Imperial Array using the Secret of Character Formation, binding the two Imperial Weapons together.

The Devouring Demon Jar and the Four Swords of Zhuxian restrain each other.

He then took the Immortal Ascension Cauldron with Su Yunxian, transformed into a stream of light, tore through the void, and arrived at the deepest part of the Life Spring.

"I can sense that Lingbao Tianzun still has a sliver of life remaining within this Sea of ​​Wheels." Su Yunxian's beautiful eyes flashed with images of epochal change, which were extremely terrifying.

Qin Tian nodded silently, agreeing, "That's right. Lingbao Tianzun's cultivation is profound. Although his Dao body has transformed into a star field and his primordial spirit has dissipated into nothingness, a glimmer of life still remains in the wheel of life."

"However, Lingbao Tianzun's own soul has already dissipated. Although he has not truly died, he is powerless to do anything. Without external help, this last bit will dissipate sooner or later."

"The fate of Lingbao Tianzun is sealed!"

Although Lingbao Tianzun only had his last breath left, he had no soul, which was no different from death. He was even more vegetative than a vegetable. Given Lingbao Tianzun's current condition, he could perhaps be called a galactic being.

Su Yunxian nodded in agreement with Qin Tian's statement, but then added, "But we're here!"

Su Yunxian said decisively, "We are his only chance!"

Qin Tian looked at this spring of life and nodded silently. On the ancient star of Heavenly Soldiers, there was the platform of the Celestial Venerable Lingbao, which contained supreme essence, enough to help a person who was about to attain enlightenment to transform for a lifetime.

He originally thought that Lingbao Tianzun's last chance of life had been taken away by the Golden Crow Emperor to fulfill his own destiny, and that Lingbao Tianzun was now completely dead.

But upon actually arriving at the Lingbao Lunhai, I discovered that it was not like that at all.

The life force of Lingbao Tianzun is not in the celestial platform, but in the sea of ​​rebirth, in the primordial spring of life.

But Qin Tian thought about it again and understood.

This makes sense.

It should be noted that Lingbao Tianzun's artifact, the Zhuxian Formation Diagram, is located on the other side of the gods, while the Four Zhuxian Swords are located in this primordial life spring.

If Lingbao Immortal Platform is the key, then the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram would not remain on the Other Shore of Gods, but would instead guard Lingbao Immortal Platform to the death.

How could we allow the Golden Crow Emperor to seize the destiny, live a life in reverse, and thus destroy the hope of Lingbao Tianzun's return?

Therefore, Qin Tian deduced that although the Lingbao Immortal Platform was important, it was not the most crucial part and was something that could be discarded.

Only this Lingbao Life Spring is the most crucial element, the reliance upon which the Lingbao Heavenly Venerable returns.

Indeed, there is still a glimmer of life remaining in Lingbao Tianzun's Wheel of Life, which is why the Four Swords of Zhuxian guard this place, protecting the Spring of Life and preventing it from being destroyed.

In the original novel, as soon as the Refining God Pot appeared, the Four Swords of Zhuxian swarmed towards it, intending to shatter it.

However, Ye Fan and his group were simply ignored, because they did not have the ability to destroy the Spirit Treasure Life Spring.

As for Qin Tian, ​​he placed the Devouring Demon Jar outside, which restrained the Four Swords of Zhuxian, and also revealed the Secret of Combining Characters to prove his identity.
