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

Chapter 128 The Ruthless Man's Legacy

He Shouwu expressed his gratitude profusely and sent out a vague message, telling Yu Yi and the others that if their life force was exhausted, they could take its essence and blood, as long as they did not harm its life.

In addition, He Shou Wu told Yu Yi and others many things, including that it had lived for a very long time and had witnessed many anecdotes and secrets in this place.

Hundreds of thousands of years ago, He Shou Wu even saw a fairy with his own eyes. That fairy had unparalleled supernatural powers throughout history, surpassing all those who had ever been to this place.

Back then, the ginseng fruit tree originally wanted to follow that fairy away from the land of immortality, but for some reason, she had tears on her face and ignored it completely.

Finally, having no other choice, in order to leave the land of immortality, the ginseng fruit tree could only grow taller among the short ones and followed Rong Chengshi away.

As for why the ginseng fruit tree insisted on leaving, it was because the immortal elixir possessed spiritual power, capable of bringing good fortune and warding off evil, and it foresaw that the land of immortality might suffer a great calamity in the future.

"The fairy it mentioned is very likely the Ruthless Great Emperor. Why don't we go with it and take a look?"

"Let's go take a look!"

Dong Yuexi's suggestion was approved by everyone, and everyone was very curious about that ruthless emperor who was unprecedented in history and had extraordinary talent.

He Shouwu led the group to a precipice where a waterfall cascaded down, partially obscuring the cliff.

But this was not a marshland, but a chaotic river, cascading down from the cliff face, a vast expanse of water.

He Shouwu explained that this cliff was a miracle left by that fairy over 200,000 years ago, which shook the entire Kunlun Mountains and almost caused them to collapse.

On the precipice, there is a blood-stained garment, protected by chaos. It remains immortal even after more than two hundred thousand years, floating on the precipice. Beside it stands a gleaming monument.

The stone tablet was forged from a star, shimmering with silver light, shining since ancient times. It is engraved with the traces of the Empress's Dao, protecting everything in this place.

Everyone looked up and could vaguely make out a line of words on the blood-stained clothes, brief and hurried: "I'm going to die—but what about my sister?"

Even if one reigns supreme and is invincible, one cannot resurrect a corpse that has been dead for many years.

Yu Yi couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion. The world of "Covering the Sky" was very special. Unlike the world of "Devouring the Universe," the ruler of the universe could reverse time and space and resurrect the dead.

In the world of Shrouding the Heavens, even if the Great Emperor is invincible, he cannot reverse time and space. It's not that the Great Emperor is inferior to the Lord of the Universe; it's just that the rules of the universe are different.

For over two hundred thousand years, many powerful beings have come here to forge weapons. As long as they can ignite a wisp of chaotic energy into fire, the grade of the magical artifact can be greatly improved.

He Shouwu kindly told people about this place, hoping that Yu Yi and the others could reforge their magical artifacts here, using chaos as fire for tempering, which would surely turn them into treasured weapons.

But whether it's Yu Yi or Ye Fan, the Yin-Yang Mirror and the Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron have already been tempered to perfection, and there is no need for them to be tempered again by Chaos Qi.

Fan Xian and Dong Yuexi have both switched to the Devouring Technique, so their original magical artifacts are basically useless and there is no need to reforge them.

Ye Fan put the He Shou Wu into his World Ring, and the group continued their journey, heading deeper into the Immortal Land.

Half an hour later, the group crossed the mountain ridge and entered an open area. Ahead of them were only a few towering mountains that were not connected, a peculiar terrain.

"Roar~"

A roar was heard, and a golden lion and a dragon flew out to guard the place.

These two strange beasts, a lion and a dragon, are both at the second level of the Immortal Platform realm, yet they are guarding the mountain gate here, which indicates that there are even more powerful beings inside the mountain.

"We should have arrived at Ryoma's territory. It seems we'll have to take a detour. Ryoma's bloodline is extraordinary, and he's also a Dao-Slaying expert. I'm no match for him now—"

In the original story, Ye Fan was already a Dao-slaying cultivator and had entered the Eight Forbidden Domains, but even so, he still had to go to great lengths to subdue the Dragon Horse.

Yu Yi was self-aware; he had only just broken through to the second level of Sendai and could not possibly be a match for Ryoma.

The Dragon Horse is a rare divine steed born of heaven and earth, not an ordinary breed. Its power can destroy the moon, and with just one hoof, it can crush an ordinary Dao-slaying cultivator.

"Singing~"

Yu Yi and the others wanted to retreat, but it was too late. A deafening dragon's roar came from inside the mountain, even scattering the clouds in the sky.

The golden lion and the dragon showed fear and prostrated themselves on the ground, intimidated by the dragon horse's divine power.

Fiery clouds surged into the sky, crimson clouds rose into the air, as if ten thousand dragons were leaping, displaying a magnificent spectacle. A streak of fiery red light shot up, and a divine and splendid beast charged forward.

The dragon-horse arrived riding on fiery clouds. It possessed the speed to chase the wind and lightning, reaching an extreme speed. Even if Yu Yi used the Heavenly Spin Steps, he could hardly match it.

The dragon-horse was fiery red all over, with shimmering dragon scales on its body. It also had long, fiery red mane-like hair that was shinier than silk and had not a single stray hair.

Its expression was arrogant, and the way it looked at Yu Yi and the others was as if it were looking down on a group of ants.

With a roar, the dragon horse's cry shook the heavens, and it charged towards Yu Yi and the others like lightning, riding on blazing flames.

"not good!"

Yu Yi's expression changed slightly, and he immediately activated the Yin-Yang Mirror, taking Ye Fan and the others through the world of Joy of Life.

"Damn dragon horse, once I break through to the third level of immortality and sever my path, I'll definitely teach it a lesson!"

Ye Fan cursed and swore. In the novel, the dragon horse was his mount. If word got out that he was so frightened by his own mount that he fled in panic, wouldn't people laugh him to death?

The group stayed in Joy of Life for half a month before crossing back to the world of Shrouding the Heavens and appearing in the Land of Immortals.

"Ryoma isn't here, get out of here immediately!"

Yu Yi extended his divine sense but could not sense the dragon horse's aura; the dragon horse must have gone out.

Two days later, the group arrived at the deepest part of the Immortal Land, where the magnificent and astonishing scenery lay before them.

Tens of thousands of dragon-head-shaped peaks clustered together, forming a valley. Each peak resembles a dragon's head, seemingly formed by nature!

Each dragon's mouth exhales the essence of heaven and earth, emanating a mystical aura that rises and gathers at the center of the valley, creating an atmosphere of unfathomable mystery.

The valley was a vast expanse of mist, bursting forth with auspicious energy, countless rays of light, and beams of celestial radiance.

At first glance, it looks like a dragon head carved by man, a masterpiece of craftsmanship. But upon closer inspection, you will find that it was formed entirely by the power of nature.

Tens of thousands of mountain peaks were all naturally formed by heaven and earth, and each one is a dragon's head. They are the result of the combined efforts of countless ancient stars and life forms from ancient times to the present.

There are tens of thousands of dragon bodies, located beneath the earth's veins, with only the dragon heads raised high on the surface, exhaling various essences of heaven and earth to nourish the immortal land.

Each of the Dragon Head Peaks contains precious medicinal herbs, resembling dazzling coral and pearl carvings.

Over the long years, Dragon Head Peak has been nourished by dragon energy and immortal light, and this place has long been spiritually connected. Every medicinal herb that grows here is priceless.

However, Yu Yi and the others dared not act rashly. The tens of thousands of Dragon Head Peaks were fraught with danger at every turn. Once the Emperor's Killing Array was triggered, even a Quasi-Emperor would be killed on the spot.
