6: The protagonists begin cultivating the Heaven-Covering Technique

In the Chat Group, the moment Fang Fan uploaded the Cultivation Technique and sent out the red envelopes, things instantly boiled over.

Xiao Yan: "A Cultivation Technique! It's an immortal technique! The Group Master is too generous!"

Han Li: "Source? Is this the spiritual essence of heaven and earth that Senior spoke of? (Han Li silently clicked to receive the red envelope)"

Luo Feng: "Only cultivating the self, excavating the body's Secret Realms? This system... is too interesting! It's completely different from the Genetic Cosmic Energy I'm currently cultivating!"

Zhang Xiaofan: "Sea of Reincarnation... dao palace... four extremities... it sounds so powerful."

Ji Ziyue: "Wow! The Great Emperor brother is so generous! Ziyue will also download a copy to see!"

Ye Fan: "(Red envelope received) Thank you, Senior! Thank you, Your Majesty the Human Emperor! Ye Fan is endlessly grateful!"

He was trembling with excitement at this moment, clicking download and receive without hesitation.

The next moment, three scriptures as vast as a sea of smoke, along with countless profound runes and Dao diagrams, flooded into his mind. Simultaneously, a mass of energy so pure it was hard to imagine appeared out of thin air inside his benz, turning into a mist of multicolored light that enveloped his entire being.

With just one breath, Ye Fan felt all thirty-six thousand pores of his body relax, and an unprecedented sense of comfort spread through his limbs and bones.

Not just him, but everyone in the Chat Group, at the same time, felt this gift from the "Great Emperor."

Wutan City, Xiao Family.

In Xiao Yan's room, a cluster of brilliant light mist appeared out of thin air. He looked at this mass of energy in shock, feeling the power within it that was countless times purer than Dou Qi, his eyes filled with fanaticism.

"Is this... Immortal Qi?!"

He couldn't wait to sit cross-legged and, according to the records of the Dao Sutra: Sea of Reincarnation Scroll in his mind, began to attempt guiding Qi into his body.

Seven Profound Sect, by the cliff.

Han Li looked at the misty "Source" in front of him, then at the little green bottle in his arms, his eyes flickering. Being cautious, he did not absorb it immediately, but instead contemplated the contents of the Dao Sutra in his heart dozens of times.

"Sea of Reincarnation... the first Secret Realm of the human body, located below the navel, is the Wheel of Life, the source of all things... opening the Bitter Sea, building the Spring of Life, erecting the Divine Bridge, reaching the Other Shore..."

The more Han Li read, the more shocked he became. This cultivation system was simply unheard of! It was in a completely different dimension from the Eternal Spring Technique he knew. The Eternal Spring Technique pursued refining essence into Qi and refining Qi into Spirit, while this Dao Sutra actually wanted to open up a "sea" within one's own body?

"The Realm of this Senior Group Master is truly unfathomable." Han Li's reverence for this "Wushi Great Emperor" deepened by several degrees.

Jiangnan Base City, inside a low-rent apartment.

Luo Feng's reaction was the most direct; he immediately turned on his communication watch, aimed it at the "Source," and started the analysis program.

"Beep beep beep... Warning! Unknown high-dimensional energy detected! Energy level far exceeds current database records! Unable to analyze! Unable to analyze!"

The piercing alarm made Luo Feng turn off his watch. He took a deep breath, a startling brilliance bursting from his eyes.

"Using the body as a boat to cross the Bitter Sea... the cultivation method of this world is actually so grand and magnificent!"

He looked at the Sea of Reincarnation Secret Realm described in the Dao Sutra, as if seeing a brand new, broad road leading to the Peak of the Universe!

Qingyun Mountain, Big Bamboo Peak.

Zhang Xiaofan stared blankly at the "Source" in his room, then at the scriptures in his mind, falling into a state of confusion.

"Dual Cultivation of Buddha and Dao leads to slow progress... so what if... I add another method from this world?" A bold idea popped into his head.

He felt like his head was about to explode; the Taiqing Realm, Great Brahman Prajna, and Sea of Reincarnation Secret Realm—three completely different power systems—intertwined and collided in his mind, making him dizzy.

Yaochi Holy Land.

Ji Ziyue blinked her big eyes and curiously poked the "Source" in front of her with her finger. The light mist immediately acted as if it were sentient, affectionately rubbing against her fingertip.

"So comfortable!" She laughed happily. "This Empress Scripture sounds like it has some connection to my family's technique... dao palace scroll, Godly Treasure of the Heart, Godly Treasure of the Liver... Eh, it seems so similar to what I Cultivate!"

Ji Ziyue was the pearl of the Ancient Desolate Ji Family and cultivated the Void Scripture of the Void Great Emperor, but all Emperor Scriptures are interconnected in certain concepts, and she immediately discovered the commonalities.

But she soon wrinkled her little nose.

"But why doesn't Great Emperor brother just send a complete Emperor Scripture? Sending it scroll by scroll like this is so troublesome," the young girl muttered in her heart.

At this time, everyone also realized—why had Senior Black Emperor been silent all this time?

...Northern Region of the Eastern Wasteland, center of the Holy City.

Around the Dragon Transformation Pool, the scene was astonishing.

To the east floated seven bronze war chariots, the flags of the Yin-Yang Sect fluttering loudly.

To the west, three Grand Elders of the Feng Clan sat cross-legged in the void, divine halos behind their heads like suns; to the south, there were even more Cultivators from small and medium-sized Schools standing on rainbows, staring at the figure in the pool with greed, jealousy, or indifference.

The Ancient Desolate Sacred Body impacting the four extremities Realm had already shaken the Eastern Wasteland. Today, most of the Eastern Wasteland's gaze was focused here.

"It has begun," someone whispered.

The sky suddenly darkened—not by clouds blocking the sun, but because the "light" of the entire sky was being stripped away by some rule. Following that, purple lightning flowed like a river of stars, and golden thunder galloped like ancient beasts. The first Lightning Tribulation transformed into a thousand-foot thunder spear, crashing down!

"Open!" Ye Fan opened his eyes and threw a punch toward the sky. His golden blood and Qi soared into the sky, actually shattering the thunder spear in mid-air.

But this was only the beginning. The second, the third... the Lightning Tribulations grew fiercer one after another. By the eighth, phantoms of the ancient Vicious Beasts Suanni and Qiongqi manifested in the sea of thunder, pouncing down with primeval Evil Qi.

Ye Fan summoned the Cauldron of Mother Qi of All Things, and Profound Yellow Qi descended, fighting with the thunder beasts. The cauldron's body vibrated, his tiger's mouth split open, and golden sacred blood dripped into the Dragon Transformation Pool, causing the pool water to boil even more violently.

Meanwhile, three thousand feet outside the Dragon Transformation Pool.

The Black Emperor crouched on a roof eave, its dog paws quickly carving array patterns—it was a remnant of its trump card, the Wushi Killing Array. Although only a corner, it was enough to distort the laws of heaven and earth in a small area, guiding the dissipated power of the Lightning Tribulation into the pool to provide a bit of help for Ye Fan.

"Damn it, this Emperor's God Source..." It looked distressedly at the rapidly shrinking God Source in the array core, but did not dare stop its paws. On its back, Little Nannan, wrapped in a large Cultivator's robe, was holding a colorful pebble from somewhere, curiously watching the sea of thunder in the sky.

At the most critical moment of the Lightning Tribulation, a sudden change occurred.

The ninth Lightning Tribulation did not fall; instead, the entire sea of thunder began to collapse and condense inward. A massive Dao diagram appeared in the sky—neither gold nor jade, neither void nor real, woven from countless silver-white heavenly Dao principles. Three thousand thin chains hung from the edges of the diagram, and on each chain floated five ancient characters flowing with the vicissitudes of time: "No Great Emperors in the Ancient Desolate."

Innate Dao Map!

The ultimate curse set by heaven and earth upon the Ancient Desolate Sacred Body, a rule and iron law that has existed since the Mythical Era!
