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

"By the way, senior, I found a seed of an immortal herb while gambling on stones in the Northern Region. I don't really need it, so you can take it and cultivate it!"

Ye Fan took out a fist-sized, purple Qilin-shaped seed, which was the Qilin Immortal Elixir.

The origin of the Qilin seed can be traced back to the ancient times; it was originally a treasure of the Fire Qilin Clan.

Later, it was reborn from the ashes during a calamity, transforming into a seed that retained the core essence of the divine medicine, containing powerful vitality and mysterious power.

Knowing that Yu Yi possesses the Heavenly Bottle, which can cultivate immortal medicine, handing over the Qilin seed to Yu Yi might allow them to cultivate a Qilin immortal medicine.

"This Qilin seed is very well preserved; cultivating it into an elixir of immortality shouldn't be difficult..."

Yu Yi took the Qilin seed, played with it for a while, and then put it into the Bitter Sea, planning to plant it again when he returned to the valley next time.

"Big dog, run faster..."

"Woof woof~"

Yu Yi suddenly heard a little girl's laughter coming from outside the main hall. The voice was as melodious as a silver bell and revealed an undisguised innocence.

Yu Yi walked to the entrance of the main hall and saw a cute little girl riding a big black dog, running around wildly and causing chaos throughout Zhuofeng.

"Her name is Xiao Nannan. I met her while I was traveling, and I took her in because I felt sorry for her..."

Ye Fan explained from the side, but even if he hadn't explained, Yu Yi could have guessed Xiao Nannan's identity.

After all, no one but Little Nannan could make the Black Emperor willingly become his mount.

"When you break through to the Four Extremes Secret Realm, remember to bring Little Nannan with you; she might be able to help you..."

Yu Yi suddenly realized something: Little Nannan might be a backup plan that the Ruthless Great Emperor had prepared for Ye Fan.

The little girl's true identity is actually the Dao Fruit of the Ruthless Great Emperor. As for what the Dao Fruit is...

It can be understood as the culmination of the Ruthless Great Emperor's life's work, which he transformed into human form to experience life in the mortal world.

In the original story, the Ruthless Great Emperor did not allow the little girl to merge with his original body, but instead gave her real life, making her an independent individual.

Perhaps the little girl's experience made up for the regret of the Ruthless Emperor. Seeing the little girl so happy, he probably didn't want to take away her happiness.

So the ruthless man granted her true life, allowing her to live happily for himself.

"The Ancient Sacred Body needs a large amount of Source to break through to the fourth level. Although I have learned the Source Heavenly Book and earned a lot of Source in the Northern Region, it is still far from enough..."

"Don't worry about the source; I have plenty. I'll give you tens of millions of catties of source later..."

Yu Yi originally didn't want to interfere too much with the plot, wanting Ye Fan to experience trials and tribulations and grow slowly, just like in the original story.

But now that Ye Fan has joined the chat group and learned most of the plot of "Covering the Sky" from Fan Xian, everything has become unrecognizable.

"However, just to be on the safe side, when you break through to the Four Extremes Secret Realm, you should still undergo your tribulation in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land!"

"I see!"

Ye Fan nodded slightly. He already knew about the Ruthless Great Emperor from Fan Xian.

Half a month later, Ye Fan, having completed all preparations, set off for the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land with tens of millions of catties of Origin, accompanied by Yu Yi carrying the little girl.

The moment Yu Yi stepped into the desolate forbidden land, he immediately felt a terrifying aura assaulting him, and his life force was rapidly draining away.

His secret realms such as the Sea of ​​Wheels, Dao Palace, Four Extremes, and Dragon Transformation were sealed. Although his divine power did not disappear, it was sealed within his body by an invisible force.

The stronger one is, the greater the suppression they will experience upon entering the desolate forbidden land, and the faster their life force will dissipate.

At this moment, Yu Yi, though not reduced to a mere mortal, has had 99% of his strength diminished.

Within the forbidden area, ancient trees rise like mountains, reaching into the sky, their branches resembling the palms of giants, almost level with the mountain ridges.

The old vines, as thick as water vats, resemble real dragons winding their way from the foot of the mountain to its summit.

Along the way, they discovered many rare and ancient medicinal herbs, but they did not have time to harvest them.

Because every minute and every second spent in the desolate forbidden land is equivalent to squandering one's life, and stopping to pick those precious herbs is not worth it at all!

"The power of the forbidden area is growing stronger; we cannot venture any deeper. You will undergo your tribulation here!"

"good!"

Ye Fan took a deep breath and bowed towards the abyss at the center of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land before attempting to break through the Four Extremes Secret Realm.

"Ye Fan, of the Holy Body lineage, is attempting to break through to the Four Extremes Secret Realm today. I hope you, senior, can offer some guidance..."

As soon as Ye Fan finished speaking, the strange power that had enveloped the entire forbidden area began to dissipate, and Ye Fan's suppressed power instantly returned.

Yu Yi carried the little girl and retreated over a hundred miles to avoid being affected by the lightning tribulation. Soon, the area a hundred miles away was shrouded in tribulation clouds, and Ye Fan had already begun his tribulation.

"Boom!"

Purple lightning surged like a tide, and in the blink of an eye, Ye Fan was engulfed by the sea of ​​lightning. Compared to the lightning tribulation of the Four Extremes Secret Realm, Ye Fan's lightning tribulation was no weaker.

Ye Fan struggled against the sea of ​​lightning, his skin and flesh were torn open and his body was charred black, with pale golden blood flowing out, but his momentum did not falter in the slightest.

"Brother Yu, Big Brother will be alright, right?"

The little girl's face was filled with worry, and her eyes welled up with tears, making it hard to look at her.

"Don't worry, your older brother is very powerful and has the Ancient Sacred Body. The tribulation lightning of the Four Extremes Secret Realm is nothing to him..."

Yu Yi comforted the little girl, saying that with Ye Fan's strength, he could definitely overcome the tribulation of the Four Extremes Secret Realm. The biggest challenge was the Innate Dao Diagram.

"Boom!"

Soon after, the tribulation clouds slowly dissipated, signifying that Ye Fan had successfully passed the tribulation and stepped into the Four Extremes Secret Realm.

Ye Fan stood tall, gazing up at the void, his expression extremely solemn. He sensed boundless danger in the darkness, as if the end of the world had come.

After the tribulation clouds dispersed, innate patterns emerged, intertwining in the void to form a Dao diagram that slowly pressed down.

The void trembled, almost collapsing. This picture is mysterious and unpredictable, like the form of the Great Dao.

The Dao diagram was grand and solemn, profound and complex, irresistible, and determined to bring Ye Fan back to his original form.

This has long surpassed the scope of heavenly tribulation; it is not thunder or lightning, but rather the innate patterns interwoven between heaven and earth, representing the will of the Great Dao!

The Dao diagram descended steadily and slowly, causing the void to collapse and the land around Ye Fan to crack.

This is an invisible, immense force, like a galaxy falling from the sky, penetrating everywhere and destroying everything in its path, crushing all obstacles and obliterating any tangible substance.

Under the suppression of the Dao diagram, Ye Fan trembled all over, making cracking sounds.

A trickle of pale golden blood oozed from every pore of his body, eventually staining half of his body red.

"Big brother..."

Suddenly, Xiao Nannan transformed into a dazzling light, rushing towards Dao Tu and colliding fiercely with it.
