Covering the Sky: I am the King of Men, and I rule over the rise and fall of all heavens.

Chapter 148 The Mastermind: Jiang Bai, You're Not a Transmigrator

To everyone's surprise, the news that the Demon Emperor Roc failed to become a Mortal Immortal and lost his status as a Great Emperor spread throughout the entire Primordial Ancient Realm.
It was even turned into stories and spread among the common people.

Even Jiang Bai, who was in a state of decline, heard about it in the teahouse.

The storyteller spoke with great detail, claiming that there was a treasure land in the Heavenly Court where anyone who obtained the title of Great Emperor could use it for training, and that as long as they had enough talent, they could directly advance to the mortal realm.

The fact that the Demon Emperor Roc failed to become emperor can only mean one thing: his title of emperor was fabricated, and he was merely a fraud.

As for why the Demon Emperor Roc was able to rise to power, it's because the current rulers of Heaven are no longer the human kings of the past, but a group of thieves.

The method of theft still caused the king to fall in love with a woman, then the woman dumped the king, ultimately leaving him heartbroken.

This prompted Jiang Bai to complain after returning home from the teahouse: "The person behind this, you must have started out writing for female-oriented fiction, right?"

In the century that followed, the teahouse owners changed seven or eight times, and the storytellers changed more than twenty times, but the stories they told were all about the various events that happened in the primordial ancient world and the heavens.

This includes which prodigy has taken off, who has come to join them in the heavens, which immortal in the primordial ancient realm has broken through to the Immortal King realm, and which supreme being has risen to the level of True Immortal and slain a great enemy in the heavens.

However, these events have all been adapted into various bizarre stories.

Jiang Bai's attitude toward this was to continue to slack off and remain indifferent, regardless of the good or bad of the Primal Ancient Realm.

It's an attitude of fighting to the very end against the people behind the scenes.

Gradually, the stories Jiang Bai heard in the teahouse changed; they were no longer about things happening now, but about things that had happened in the past.

This is the story of King Jiangbai.

In this story of Jiang Bai, the King of Men, Jiang Bai did not experience any hardship and had a smooth life after transmigrating.

The fairy sister guided him in his cultivation, and the old man in the ring taught him wholeheartedly.

The beautiful woman he met during his adventure in the secret realm secretly fell in love with him and didn't mind being his concubine. The woman's father bowed down to Jiang Bai as soon as he saw him.

The protectors I encountered after embarking on the ancient starry road were fair and just.

Every brother I met treated me with utmost sincerity.

Even Jin Zi, who came with ill intentions, treated Jiang Bai with genuine sincerity.

After that, his journey on the path to immortality in the mortal world went smoothly. He also managed to subdue the Undying Emperor, the Emperor, the native immortals of the strange world, and the supreme beings in the forbidden zones who had never launched a dark upheaval.

Several celestial beings from the mythological era were resurrected.

Ultimately, he led everyone to fight their way to the Immortal Realm, refined the Immortal Realm into the Shrouding the Heavens universe, and ascended to immortality together with all the beings in the Shrouding the Heavens universe.

Later in the story, Jiang Bai led the Primordial Ancient Realm to devour the entire universe, making the Primordial Ancient Realm the only realm.

By the time the strange race arrived, Jiang Bai was already an Immortal Emperor, while the Undying Emperor, the Emperor Venerable, the Ruthless Man, Ye Fan, and Wu Shi were all Quasi-Immortal Emperors, on the verge of breaking through to Immortal Emperor.

The other ancient emperors, ancient desolate emperors, and mythological era celestial venerables were all great masters in the Immortal King realm.

In the story, Jiang Bai led everyone to give the strange clan a little shock.

Next, in the story, Jiang Bai joins forces with the Desolate Emperor to revive the people of the Immortal Ancient, Chaotic Ancient, and Emperor Fall eras, and together they resist the strange race.

Not long after, the Primordial Ancient Realm swallowed the Boundary Sea and completely integrated the entire universe. In the story, Jiang Bai broke through to the Immortal Emperor realm and entered the Sacrifice Path, or rather, the realm corresponding to the Sacrifice Path.

During this period, Ye Fan and others broke through to the Immortal Emperor level, becoming the backbone of the fighting force against the strange race.

Everything is going smooth.

The story ends here, and no further narration follows. The storyteller then switches to a more ordinary tale, recounting the story of a legendary thief from a folk kingdom.

"Is this telling me that my fate has been changed? Is the fate in the story the one I was meant to have?"

"Or are you actually trying to save me?"

Jiang Bai spoke to himself, convinced that the person behind the scenes could hear him.

But no one replied to Jiang Bai.

A few days later, the storytellers continued to tell tales of the mortal realm, and no more major events from the primordial ancient world and the myriad heavens were transmitted. It was as if the person behind the scenes had completely given up on Jiang Bai.

Jiang Bai's attitude towards this was, "Great, finally it's quiet... what a load of rubbish."

While fishing, a bunch of images of fishing for the heavens suddenly popped into my head.

While tilling the land, a bunch of thoughts suddenly popped into my head that I was cultivating all living beings in the world.

Even when I'm cooking, I imagine myself slowly simmering the affairs of the heavens over a low flame.

"Damn it, the person behind this has gone too far."

Jiang Bai's somewhat broken Dao heart gradually shifted towards me working hard to cultivate and find the person behind the scenes to beat him up.

Jiang Bai was genuinely annoyed by the opponent's actions.

"What's the point of torturing a mere, passive transmigrator like me? You should be torturing the trio; they are the true chosen ones."

On this day, Jiang Bai was fishing when he suddenly felt a profound understanding of the Dao of Time Freeze appear in his mind, and he immediately became furious.

"A time traveler? Young man, what are you talking about?" An old man passing by said with a sly smile to Jiang Bai.

That eerie smile sent a chill down Jiang Bai's spine, and he summoned the Myriad Soul Banner to attack it directly.

A terrifying scene unfolded; the old man's eyes narrowed slightly, and Jiang Bai was rendered unable to move.

"If you are not strong enough, you will not be able to gain freedom."

"Lying down is not an option either."

The old man waved his hand, gesturing for Jiang Bai to sit down and continue fishing. He then sat down beside Jiang Bai and said slowly, "It's all because we're not strong enough."

"If you were to surpass the level of an Immortal Emperor and be on par with the patient, you could kill me in an instant and resolve everything, instead of being driven by impotent rage."

"Looking forward to your rise."

The old man's figure slowly disappeared, and Jiang Bai's expression remained calm, but a smile rose in his heart.

"I finally managed to trick you into coming out."

To Jiang Bai, the idea of ​​his Dao heart being shattered was utter nonsense. He was someone who had experienced endless betrayals and had even transmigrated, so how could his Dao heart be shattered just because of a mastermind behind the scenes?

He just wanted to test his position with the mastermind behind the scenes.

I just wanted to meet the mastermind behind it all.

It has now been confirmed that he holds a significant position within the mastermind's inner circle, and that the other party values ​​him highly and is unwilling to let him go.

It was also determined that the mastermind's strength did not exceed that of the patient, and at most was only on the same level as the will of the plateau.

However, one thing that still puzzled Jiang Bai was who the mastermind was and why they were targeting him.

And why deny his identity as a time traveler.

This is a very surprising and shocking thing.

The time traveler's identity was denied.

"But it doesn't matter. As long as I believe it's true, then everything is true."

"The most important thing now is to improve our strength."

"The path of the Primordial Ancient Realm devouring all the heavens to evolve, and thus increasing its strength accordingly, is no longer viable."

"This path to promotion was chosen by the mastermind behind the scenes. Who knows if it's toxic or not? I guess I'll have to rely on myself."

I'm posting one chapter now, and I'm writing the other one.
