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

Half a month later, the Tai Xuan Sect's triennial sect competition was held as scheduled at Xingfeng.

Although Yu Yi did not register for the competition, he stepped onto Xingfeng for the first time as a spectator.

Accompanying Yu Yi were Fan Xian and Dong Yuexi. As for Ji Ziyue? She had already been taken back to the Ji family.

In stark contrast to Zhuofeng, Xingfeng boasts beautiful scenery, picturesque mountains, rolling seas of clouds, and thick fog swirling around the peaks, creating a scene reminiscent of a fairyland.

The Tai Xuan Sect has a history of ten thousand years and has one hundred and eight main peaks, representing one hundred and eight kinds of inheritance.

The Star Peak's inherited Star-Guiding Technique is an extremely powerful secret art. Those who master it can draw upon the stars in the sky and use their power to fight enemies.

Among the 108 lineages of the Tai Xuan Sect, the Xingfeng lineage is definitely among the top three.

Xingfeng is renowned throughout the entire Big Dipper region, making it the most powerful branch of the Tai Xuan Sect. For nearly a thousand years, Xingfeng has held the position of sect leader.

At this moment, Star Peak was already packed with people, including not only disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect, but also young disciples from other forces who had come to witness the grand Tai Xuan Sect competition.

The Tai Xuan Sect's grand competition is not only a stage for its disciples to showcase themselves, but also a way to demonstrate the sect's profound heritage to the world.

"Knock knock~"

With the nine tolls of the bell, the sect competition officially began. One by one, the outstanding disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect flew onto the fighting arena, and the battle was extremely fierce.

The sect competition is divided into two arenas: one in the Wheel Sea Secret Realm and one in the Dao Palace Secret Realm. Each secret realm has ten arenas, and the competitions are held simultaneously.

On the left side of the arena, there was a high platform where the high-ranking members of the Tai Xuan Sect and representatives from various forces who had come to watch the competition were discussing the disciples who were competing.

Those disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect could be considered geniuses among ordinary cultivators, but none of them could earn Yu Yi's high regard.

"Li Xiaoman has also signed up for the competition? Her cultivation speed isn't slow; she's already broken through the Dao Palace Secret Realm..."

Yu Yi suddenly noticed a familiar figure stepping onto the stage; it was Li Xiaoman.

"I just wonder if she's involved with Hua Yunfei, just like in the original story?"

Li Xiaoman's rapid cultivation must have been due to Xingfeng's intensive training, and she may have gotten involved with Hua Yunfei, just like in the original story.

Ye Fan has already asked Li Ruoyu to help her resolve the Crocodile Ancestor's Divine Embryo. If she still follows the old path from the original story, then she deserves it.

Li Xiaoman's strength was not very high. Judging from her appearance, she should have broken through to the Dao Palace Secret Realm not long ago and was quickly defeated by her opponent.

As time went by, one by one, disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect stepped onto the arena, among whom quite a few geniuses emerged who caught the eye.

After all, the vast Tai Xuan Sect cannot be composed entirely of mediocre talents; otherwise, how could the Tai Xuan Sect have lasted for ten thousand years?

"Look, Senior Brother Hua is here!"

A handsome man in white, with a refined and elegant appearance that would make women jealous, and a lively and otherworldly demeanor, flew onto the arena. It was Hua Yunfei.

"In this sect competition, Senior Brother Hua will undoubtedly win again; there's almost no suspense. Senior Brother Hua is truly the number one prodigy of our Tai Xuan Sect!"

"That's not all. Senior Brother Hua is also very famous throughout the Southern Region. He is a prodigy who is on par with the Holy Son of Yao Guang and the Eastern Wilderness Divine Body of the Ji Family..."

Among the younger generation of the Tai Xuan Sect, Hua Yunfei enjoys extremely high prestige and is supported by disciples from all peaks. He is regarded as a spiritual leader by many Tai Xuan Sect disciples.

"You people really know how to pat yourselves on the back. I admit Hua Yunfei is a prodigy, but compared to our Holy Son, he's far inferior..."

"Indeed! Our Holy Son of the Yao Guang Holy Land has fought countless battles over the years and has never been defeated. No matter who the opponent is, he crushes them all with overwhelming force..."

"Our Ji family's Eastern Wilderness Divine Body is no less powerful than anyone else's. In recent years, we have challenged people everywhere, sweeping away the younger generation of the Eastern Wilderness. Our reputation has spread far and wide, and we have no rivals..."

Both the Yao Guang Holy Land and the Ji family sent people to observe the competition. Upon hearing the disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect boasting about Hua Yunfei, many people became dissatisfied.

"Tch! When the tiger's away, the monkeys are king. What Eastern Wilderness Divine Body, what Yao Guang Holy Son? I, Brother Yu, can crush them with a single hand!"

"Don't you dare stir up trouble for me..."

If Fan Xian's words were overheard, they would definitely cause a lot of trouble. Fortunately, there were many people at the scene, and it was chaotic everywhere, so no one paid attention to them.

"Hua Yunfei's strength is indeed far superior to that of his peers, and he truly deserves the title of a prodigy..."

On the stage, Hua Yunfei defeated his opponents one after another, none of whom could withstand a single blow from him.

The key point is that Hua Yunfei clearly did not go all out, and he did not use any of the various supernatural powers passed down from the ruthless man.

The sect competition lasted for three days, and in the end, without a doubt, Hua Yunfei won first place with a perfect record of 100 wins.

With the conclusion of the sect competition and the departure of the major forces, the Tai Xuan Sect returned to its former tranquility.

……

Thousands of miles away from the Tai Xuan Sect, in an inconspicuous valley, Yu Yi held the Palm Heaven Bottle and dripped a drop of the Dew of Creation onto a Bodhi seed.

After a month of nurturing and absorbing four drops of the Dew of Creation, the Bodhi seed finally showed signs of sprouting, with a tender green shoot emerging from it.

This valley is in a remote location, neither too far nor too close to Zhuofeng. It was carefully chosen by Yu Yi, who also set up the Deceitful Heaven Array Pattern and the Beginningless Killing Array outside the valley.

Although Yu Yi only learned the basics of the Deceitful Heaven Array Pattern and the Boundless Killing Array due to the short time available, it was more than enough to deal with ordinary cultivators.

The Heaven-Deceiving Array Pattern can create illusions by altering the rules of heaven and earth. It once helped the Great Emperor Wushi disguise himself as an ordinary cultivator and infiltrate the Undying Mountain without being detected.

Of course, that was before the Great Emperor Wushi attained enlightenment. But even a glimpse reveals the whole picture. The Heaven-Deceiving Array Pattern could even deceive a Supreme Being, which shows how powerful it was.

Yu Yi could not alter the rules of heaven and earth, but he carved a heaven-deceiving array pattern outside the valley. Even if a powerful figure passed by, it would be difficult for him to detect the mystery inside the valley.

With the Heaven-Deceiving Array Pattern, Yu Yi could confidently plant the Mysterious Heaven Immortal Vine and Bodhi Seeds in the valley.

To improve the valley's environment, Yu Yi replicated tens of millions of kilograms of Yuan and buried them all at the bottom of the valley.

This instantly transformed the valley, which was originally devoid of spiritual energy, into a sacred place for cultivation, no less than, and perhaps even surpassing, the main peaks of the Tai Xuan Sect.

Yu Yi stayed in the valley to cultivate, nurturing the Xuan Tian Immortal Vine and Bodhi Seeds while observing the Palm Heaven Bottle and comprehending the laws of the Heavenly Dao.

At the same time, Yu Yi did not forget to cultivate the single secret realm cultivation method and develop the extraordinary phenomena.

Before they knew it, half a year had passed. The single secret realm cultivation method was progressing slowly, and the development of the strange phenomena had also hit a bottleneck, making it difficult to improve in the short term.

However, with the aid of the Heavenly Bottle in his cultivation, Yu Yi's understanding of the Great Dao improved rapidly.

"It seems impossible to break through the Eight Forbidden Realms before reaching the Four Extremes Secret Realm, so I can only try to break through the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm first..."
