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

Chapter 96 The Madman Without Beginnings
When they saw Jiang Bai walk to the Thunderfire Pool, but Jiang Bai's figure did not appear.

For the first time, Xu Kong and Lin Feng realized how vast the gap was between them and Jiang Bai.

"People used to say that Heavenly Venerables, Ancient Emperors, and Great Emperors could defy the heavens and defeat immortals, but now it seems that those were just the opinions of frogs in a well," Lin Feng retorted directly.

I thought that even if I was still far behind Jiang Bai after I attained enlightenment, it wouldn't be too much. But now it seems that I'm just standing on the ground looking at the moon, unable to see the difference in their levels.

At the same time, Lin Feng glanced into the void.

The Void, sensing something, glanced at Lin Feng and said indifferently, "I can kill you in a few dozen moves."

Although he failed to step on the myriad paths in the void, that battle with the myriad paths brought him great gains and significantly improved his combat power.

When the two looked at Jiang Bai, he was already sitting cross-legged in the Thunderfire Pool. Immortal fire and lightning flashed continuously, polishing Jiang Bai's physical body and tempering his primordial spirit.

Jiang Bai focused his mind on the Land of Divine Punishment, circulating his Immortal Golden Core and frantically channeling Immortal power into the Heavenly Punishment Mountain to strengthen it.

In Jiang Bai's eyes, Heavenly Punishment Mountain was rising steadily under the strengthening of the Immortal Path of the Mortal World, but more of its power was being absorbed by the immortal fire and lightning in the Thunderfire Pool and released into his physical body.

Jiang Bai channeled the power of the Thunderfire Pool that had entered his body towards the five secret realms, refining them again and again, strengthening the secret realm's Dao Fruits, allowing them to continuously evolve, and then using them to nourish his body.

"Perhaps the reason why the Immortal King and the Burial King in the Perfect World traded burial soil was to hone themselves by using different Great Daos."

"Perhaps the earliest cultivators were like this, using various treasure lands and perilous places to strengthen their Great Dao and move forward step by step."

Jiang Bai looked at the Secret Realm Dao Fruit that was beginning to improve within his body, and his immortal body and primordial spirit that were slowly progressing, and murmured to himself.

Soon after, Jiang Bai saw the enhanced feedback from the Secret Realm Dao Fruit entering his Immortal Golden Core, making the figure within clearer. A small version of himself was reciting scriptures inside, and wisps of the Great Dao Heavenly Sound gradually appeared within his body.

"We need to hurry!" Jiang Bai said, somewhat excited.

Time stands still in the mountains; a thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye. When Jiang Bai awoke from the resonance with Tianfa Mountain, he saw Lin Feng and the void, both with white hair, fighting against each other, their reflections shimmering in the mountain's image.

Only after calculating with my fingers did I realize that ten thousand years had passed.

Jiang Bai raised his hand and instantly shattered the figures of Lin Feng, the void, and the two figures reflected by Heavenly Punishment Mountain.

The best way to stop a fight is to destroy both sides.

When Xu Kong and Lin Feng reassembled, they found themselves in the Human King's Palace, where Jiang Bai was drinking tea under the Bodhi tree.

Judging from the freshness of the tea leaves, they were just picked.

In other words, during the time they were rebuilding their physical bodies, Jiang Bai forcibly brought them from Tianfa Mountain to the Human King Palace, and also picked tea leaves on Undying Mountain.

When Xu Kong and Lin Feng sat down, their expressions changed again; their internal injuries had healed.

During the ten thousand years that Jiang Bai slept and cultivated, the two of them continued to cultivate on Tianfa Mountain, battling against the reflected figures.

For some reason, the reflected figures were getting stronger and stronger, almost catching up with the strength of their two original bodies.

After ten thousand years of fighting, the two of them made rapid progress in their cultivation, but also accumulated a lot of hidden injuries in their bodies, which affected their lifespan.

Now, the hidden injuries are gone, and my lifespan has even increased slightly.

The cultivation level of a Human King is terrifying.

Jiang Bai poured a cup of tea for each of them and said with a smile, "Consider this a small gift from me after my return."

"So, will you two first undergo transformation in this universe, or go to a strange world?"

With his lifespan nearing its end, and having already used the elixir of immortality, it's time for Void to make a choice.

"We will undergo a transformation in this universe, and then we will go to the strange world," Void said in a deep voice, suppressing the turmoil in his heart.

A strange light flashed in Jiang Bai's eyes: "The situation over there is very good, there's no need to rush?"

Xu Kong shook his head slightly and sighed softly, "But I don't want to fall too far behind you."

Lin Feng nodded in agreement.

In this strange world, the two of them could participate in epic battles, honing themselves through real life-or-death crises and continuously elevating their Dao. Jiang Bai nodded, "Alright."

Lin Feng and Xu Kong immediately began their transformation. They chose the same method: using Origin Technique to inscribe a large array within their bodies. The array nourished their essence, energy, spirit, the Great Dao, and the immortal essence they had accumulated.

After inscribing the inscription, the two activated the great formation, allowing it to continuously absorb the essence of heaven and earth, as well as the blood and essence of their own bodies.

In Jiang Bai's eyes, the two people's invincible imperial bodies were visibly fading away.

If we compare the imperial body to a world, this process of decline is a gradual transition from an era where everyone possessed the substance for immortality and could become an immortal to the end of the Dharma era and the era of spiritual desolation.

Three hundred years later, their imperial bodies had deteriorated to the point where a mere gust of wind could cause them to crumble.

It looks exactly like a dried-out old steamed bun.

This involves extreme squeezing.

Suddenly, two terrifying auras soared into the sky, and the dilapidated imperial body, which was crumbling at the slightest breeze, was quickly filled with vitality.

White hair turns black, and an old man transforms into a young man.

In the years that followed, they continued to send messages to the entire universe about entering strange worlds.

The only difference was that Void tried to enter the strange world alone, but he found the node and failed to break through.

His cultivation level is still a bit lacking. He will probably need to undergo another transformation and reach the fourth life on the path of immortality in the mortal world.

This once again demonstrates the extent of Wushi's overpowered abilities.

Taking advantage of Lin Feng and the void entering the strange world, Jiang Bai and Wu Shi openly communicated in front of the spatial channel opened between the two universes.

While the Undying Emperor was spying, Jiang Bai casually injured him severely, bringing him to the brink of death.

"I'm not killing you because you're still useful." On that day, Jiang Bai was high and mighty, regarding the Undying Emperor as a stray dog ​​on the roadside.

The Immortal Emperor was so enraged that his eyes were practically bloodshot, and the eyes of the native mortal immortals of this strange world were filled with humiliation.

If the two of them hadn't been rational, they would most likely have rushed up to fight Jiang Bai to the death.

Jiang Bai's words at that moment reminded the two of their own experiences of being hunted down when they were weak.

Afterwards, Wu Shi laughed and said, "Senior, you've really made things more difficult for me."

Jiang Bai smiled and asked, "Do you care?"

Wu Shi chuckled again, of course he didn't care, he was pretty awesome.

Furthermore, Wu Shi demonstrated his cultivation level to Jiang Bai, revealing that he was close to becoming an immortal and that he was about to create his own unique cultivation method.

It was one step ahead of the Immortal Emperor and the native mortal immortals of the strange world.

This surprised Jiang Bai. Wu Shi told Jiang Bai that he had chosen a more barbaric path to immortality in the mortal world over the years.

Eight thousand years ago, he used fishing to lure out the Immortal Emperor and the native Red Dust Immortal of the Strange World. He then used self-destruction and desperate measures to catch the two off guard and severely injure them.

The price was that Wushi himself was seriously injured, but he survived for a lifetime by relying on the Great Dao of the two people opposite him.

Four thousand years ago, Wushi forcibly attempted to break through to a new cultivation method, once again severely injuring himself and bringing him to the brink of death, with his very life essence on the verge of destruction.

However, because of the fishing incident eight thousand years ago, the two immortal emperors did not come, allowing Wushi to undergo a peaceful transformation and live another life.

"The path to immortality in the mortal world doesn't stipulate that one can only live until the time is up."

Indeed, if you are beaten to the point of near death today, and you are awesome enough to live through one lifetime, and you are beaten to the point of near death again tomorrow, and you are awesome enough to live through another lifetime, and you live through nine lifetimes of near death and nine lifetimes of living through nine lifetimes, you will most likely become an immortal on the spot.

It's just a bit dangerous.
