In the world of "Covering the Sky": An Analysis of the Ancient Sacred Body at the Start

Time flies like water, and before we knew it, two months had passed in the blink of an eye.

While Yu Yi secluded himself to diligently practice the single-realm cultivation method, he waited for the Yin-Yang Mirror to complete its analysis.

Yu Yi's cultivation level has already reached the peak of the Dao Palace Secret Realm and touched the threshold of the Four Extremes Secret Realm. He can break through at any time if he wants.

However, he did not rush to break through. He planned to wait until he replicated the Innate Dao Embryo to see if the Innate Dao Embryo and the Ancient Sacred Body could be fused together and transformed into the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo.

If given a choice, Yu Yi would still try his best to undergo tribulation in the world of Shrouding the Heavens and break through the Four Extremes Secret Realm.

Tribulation is both a test and an opportunity. Successfully overcoming tribulation can bring a baptism of heaven and earth, greatly enhancing one's foundation. In short, there are many benefits.

Yu Yi was cultivating when he suddenly heard someone's voice coming from outside the palace. Yu Yi woke up from his cultivation and recognized Ye Fan's voice.

"What happened?"

Yu Yi stopped cultivating and walked out of the palace. Before he went into seclusion, he told Ye Fan that Ye Fan would not disturb him unless there was something else.

"Senior, something terrible has happened at Zhuofeng. Yesterday, a peerless master arrived at our Zhuofeng. I heard he's an old monster who has lived for six thousand years..."

As they walked and talked, they arrived at the top of a mountain peak, where they saw a group of people surrounding a large cocoon with runes flashing on it, as they were trying to comprehend it.

Within the Tai Xuan Sect, besides the 108 main peaks, there are countless secondary peaks, and the mountain they are standing on is one of the many secondary peaks of Zhuo Peak.

"The giant cocoon that everyone is surrounding is the transformation of that peerless master from six thousand years ago..."

Ye Fan pointed to the large cocoon. He really wanted to understand it, but there were too many people and he couldn't squeeze in.

"That old madman..."

Looking at the large cocoon on the mountaintop, Yu Yi murmured to himself, "The old madman's true identity is none other than the peerless genius of the Tianxuan Holy Land six thousand years ago."

Six thousand years ago, the Tianxuan Holy Land launched an attack on the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, but the result was naturally a failure. Only a few people escaped, and the Old Madman was one of them.

However, this also caused him to become mentally unstable, acting erratically all day long. His name is not explicitly mentioned in the novel, so he is referred to as the Old Madman.

"I heard from the elders that that senior was an unparalleled powerhouse from six thousand years ago. It's incredible that someone could live for over six thousand years!"

"Yes! A person who has lived for six thousand years is practically a living history book. Perhaps his very existence is a miracle..."

"Many people tried to communicate with that senior, but unfortunately, he had completely gone insane, often crying and laughing at the same time, making it impossible to communicate with him..."

At the summit of Fengshan, many disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect were discussing the matter of the Old Madman.

"That senior is about to wake up..."

Someone shouted, and everyone instinctively looked at the large cocoon. The cocoon slowly cracked open, and an old man with white hair walked out.

His clothes were tattered and looked very old, unlike anything from this era. He was muttering something to himself, and two lines of tears hung from his cloudy old eyes.

With a wave of his sleeve, the old madman sent everyone around the cocoon flying backward. However, he seemed to have no intention of hurting them; they were merely sent flying.

"Their scent..."

But just then, the old madman flashed and suddenly appeared beside Ye Fan, grabbing Ye Fan's arm and staring intently at him.

"S-senpai..."

Ye Fan's heart tightened. This senior was too terrifying. This kind of terrifying pressure made him unable to move at all, far exceeding any cultivator he had ever seen before.

Ye Fan thought of the desolate ancient forbidden land, the Heavenly Pivot Saintess, and those desolate slaves. The "they" that this senior was referring to were most likely these people.

But so much time has passed, his aura should have been completely cleansed by now, yet this senior can still sense it.

Before anyone could react, the old madman took a step forward, used the Heavenly Pivot Step, and instantly disappeared from the mountaintop, taking Ye Fan with him.

"They're finally gone..."

After the old madman left with Ye Fan, Yu Yi immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He had just been standing next to Ye Fan, also enduring terrible pressure.

"It's a pity I didn't learn the Tianxuan Footwork, but it's okay, I'll learn it from Ye Fan next time I see him..."

The Tianxuan Steps are the supreme secret technique of the Tianxuan Holy Land, which is actually a fragment of the Line of Words Secret, one of the Nine Secrets.

The "Xingzi Secret" was created by the carefree Heavenly Venerable, one of the nine Heavenly Venerables of the mythological era. Mastering this secret technique grants one extreme speed, allowing one to ascend to the heavens and descend to the netherworld.

When cultivated to the extreme, one can even touch the realm of time and reach a state that transcends time.

How the Tianxuan Holy Land obtained the fragment of the Xingzi Secret Scroll is unknown, but even though it is a fragment, the Tianxuan Footwork has dominated the Eastern Wilderness for thousands of years, and everyone wants to obtain it.

"I inquired when I returned. That senior led Ye Fan through the domain gate and left the Southern Region of the Eastern Wilderness, heading towards the Northern Region of the Eastern Wilderness..."

"But don't worry, Ye Fan should be fine. He might even benefit from this misfortune and learn a supreme secret technique comparable to the All-Encompassing Secret..."

After returning to Zhuofeng, Yu Yi truthfully told Dong Yuexi about Ye Fan being taken away by the old madman.

The so-called domain gate is actually a large teleportation array, just with a different name.

The area where Tai Xuan Sect, Ji Family, and Yao Guang Holy Land are located belongs to the Southern Region of the Eastern Wilderness. No one can say for sure how far apart the Northern and Southern Regions are.

It takes cultivators in the Bitter Sea Secret Realm several years to travel from the Southern Region to the Northern Region by flying on rainbows.

In this region, apart from the Ji family and the Yao Guang Holy Land, the Tai Xuan Sect is the most powerful. Naturally, the Tai Xuan Sect has its own domain gate.

Several months ago, Yu Yi traveled to the Eastern Wilderness Central Region, where the Purple Mansion Holy Land is located, also through the domain gate of the Tai Xuan Sect, for which he spent a considerable amount of resources.

Before they knew it, several months had passed, and the Yin-Yang Mirror had finally finished analyzing that strand of hair.

"Replicating the Innate Dao Embryo also requires one million units of source energy, just like replicating the Ancient Sacred Body..."

The Innate Dao Embryo is also a top-tier special physique, no weaker than the Ancient Sacred Body. However, one focuses on the physical body, while the other focuses on enlightenment.

Those born with a primordial Dao embryo are naturally close to the Dao, cultivate at an extremely fast pace, and comprehend the Dao as easily as eating and drinking.

"Cannot be copied from Zhuofeng..."

Yu Yi didn't rush to replicate the innate Dao embryo. He was afraid that making too much noise would alert Li Ruoyu, which would be difficult to explain later. He decided to go to other worlds instead.

I'll take this opportunity to collect the incense offerings I've accumulated over the past six months in the Fengyun World, the Ming Dynasty Martial Arts World, and the Joy of Life World, and replenish my energy source.

Yu Yi transformed into a divine rainbow, flew away from Zhuofeng, and after leaving Taixuan Sect, he found a secluded and deserted place and activated the Yin-Yang Mirror to begin his journey.
