From Covering the Sky, I Became a Transcendent

Chapter 168: The Bloody Battlefield of the Fallen Saint Island

This night was very peaceful. Everyone was meditating, adjusting their minds in the strange ancient city, waiting for the trial gate to open.

“Woo…”

At dawn, a horn sounded, vast and distant, as if it came from ancient times, like the cry of the ancestors of the ancient human race.

“This is the horn that our human ancestors used when they were exploring the universe and fighting in the frontier regions. Listen up!”

Everyone gathered again at the city center square a few days ago. On the high platform, the figure of the guide was still so blurry, with only a pair of eyes as bright as golden lamps, making it impossible to look directly at them.

“I have only one purpose for entering the trial field today, to gain the profound truth of that world. If you don’t have this kind of understanding, stop here!”

He still didn’t speak much and disappeared from the stone platform. He didn’t want to say another word or explain anything to everyone.

Then, a man with extraordinary strength and armor appeared, followed by several soldiers.

This is the commander of the ancient city, and also a strong man at the peak of the saint level. He is responsible for leading everyone on the road: “You follow me.”

The teleportation array was activated, and a huge beam of light shot out, piercing through the universe and tearing open a wide space channel, leading to an unknown star field.

The surroundings were transparent, and Si Chen saw pieces of star fields being left behind. They penetrated the universe and came to an extremely distant place.

After an unknown amount of time, everyone was shocked and rushed out of the passage, as if they had arrived in the distant starry sky, where the sky was full of twinkling stars and was as holy as water.

There is a huge island ahead, which is more magnificent than the ancient star. It has an aura of eternal vicissitudes. It has gone through countless catastrophes and lies here, leaving endless legends for future generations.

This island is where the ancestors of the human race once fought bloody battles, and countless supreme masters died there. It is said to have originated in the mythological era.

“This is the Holy Island of Death. After you enter, you just need to experience the eternal and unchanging supreme avenue. If you don’t have this kind of understanding, there is no need to continue on the road!” said the commander, pointing to the island.

“Ow…”

There was a roaring sound, which was a mental shock. The great kings and half-saints present all felt their souls shaken.

Most people’s faces changed. It was obvious that there was no shortage of sacred beasts on this island. If they were not careful, they would likely become their food.

The Holy Island of the Fallen is large enough that its exterior is divided into forty-nine areas. If the forbidden area in the center is included, then there are fifty areas in total.

“The forty-nine areas are separated by barriers that are difficult to break. Once you choose an area and go deep into it, it will be difficult to cross the boundary. If you break the barriers, you will be burdened with shackles weighing millions of pounds.” The commander gave a final warning.

“Here, ordinary people cannot cross the border to fight. The rules here are to prevent you from killing each other and to protect everyone’s safety.”

After saying this, the commander stood aside and watched everyone’s choice.

There are more than 300 people coming this time. In other words, there are only six or seven people in each area. Everyone is very cautious and wants to choose the right area to avoid strong enemies.

Therefore, most people’s attention was focused on Si Chen. They were very wary of him. No one wanted to be in the same area with him because they all knew that he was the strongest, so they had to watch him choose first.

Si Chen looked calm, without giving it much thought, he simply plunged into the ancient road in the first area and flew straight in.

“You are truly a seed-level expert. You chose the first zone. Do you want to be superior to us?” a cultivator said dissatisfiedly.

The number one is special in itself. Most people will subconsciously avoid it, and few people will choose it.

……

Si Chen certainly didn’t care what these people thought of him.

The first area is very vast, it is a wild world with towering ancient peaks and tall mountains. There are all kinds of ancient alien species roaming in the forest, the number is astonishing, and a small half of them are holy beasts.

“The Tao and Dharma left by the ancient sages are a rare sacred land.”

His eyes flashed, and soon he saw the imprint of the avenue in this area, capturing the traces of the avenue that had existed since ancient times and comprehending the true meaning therein.

The Chaos Sky Eye was opened, and he was able to comprehend all kinds of great principles. In just a moment, he completed the task.

“The island itself is more valuable to me.”

There are countless divine traces of the Dao in every area, left by the great saints and quasi-emperors of the past. He can comprehend these traces, fill them into his own universe, and turn them into his foundation.

Next, Si Chen continued to go deeper into the area. Several holy beasts pounced on him on the way, but they were all smashed to pieces by his punch, and the area was filled with blood mist.

It then began to rain blood, the saint fell, and the heaven and earth would mourn with strange phenomena.

“Let’s go to other areas.” Si Chen stepped on the secret of the word “Xing”, which allowed him to travel through time. He broke through the regional barriers, passed through several areas, and suddenly arrived at the ninth area. The shackles weighing millions of pounds could not affect him at all.

Many people looked at him with fear and trepidation, because at this moment Si Chen had several layers of blood-red shackles on his body, which were flowing with a crystal luster and were as heavy as the sky.

If it were them, their bones would definitely be broken and their flesh would be turned into mud, but Si Chen acted very relaxed.

Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, Si Chen comprehended the great Dao while moving forward quickly, and in the blink of an eye he crossed more than thirty areas.

The trial participants along the way were stunned and looked at him as if he were a monster.

“How many areas did this guy cross? So many shackles!”

“I counted it, at least 30 million jin, what a terrifying body. With this kind of pressure, an ordinary saint would be crushed to death, but he is fine. It seems that this person has not yet become a saint!”

Some cultivators’ eyes flickered, which meant that Si Chen’s physical body was probably at the peak level of a saint, or even stronger.

The mountains in all major regions fell silent. Even the ferocious birds and beasts sensed a sense of crisis and lay dormant, not daring to make a sound.

“This level of evil is no longer an ordinary seed-level expert!”

“I don’t know what kind of physique it is. Could it be the Supreme Immortal Body?”

“I feel like it’s a congenital Dao fetus, in harmony with the Dao, and it fits the characteristics of this physique perfectly.”

Under the horrified gazes of the crowd, Si Chen did not stop, but crossed domains one after another, and finally arrived at the last area of ​​the Meteorite Saint Island.

The blood rushing into the sky and the clanging of swords all came from a blood-colored lake in front of them. It was ten miles in diameter and was so bright red that it was blinding.

“A pool of ten feet of blood, the burial ground of our ancestors and sects.”

Next to the Blood Lake, there is a stone tablet, half of it has rotted away due to the erosion of the years, and the ancient divine inscriptions on it can barely be discerned.

This is a spiritual imprint that tells the truth that besides the enemy, oneself is the most powerful opponent.

The purpose of this bloody battlefield is to copy another self, let the monks who come for the trial fight against yourself, and then see your own shortcomings and achieve a stronger transformation.

“This method, is this the work of the Great Emperor?”

Si Chen was looking forward to this other self, and he jumped in without hesitation.

This is an ancient battlefield with mysterious laws and blood gathering. After a moment, an identical person appears. His body, soul and realm are no different from Si Chen.

“boom!”

A shocking showdown began, but after several rounds of fighting, Si Chen discovered that there were still some differences. The opponent did not have the Six Fu Secret Realm, so his combat power was still slightly inferior to his.

In order to hone himself, he did not use the power of this secret realm to fight it. After all, it was too difficult to find an opponent with the same combat power.

The divine light was overwhelming. Apart from the secret realm, the other means of the two men were the same. The opponent was also very clear about the fighting techniques and rhythm, so it was a big battle.

He knows the Nine Secrets, the Three Seals of Heaven, Earth and Man, the Secret Arts of the Moon and the Sun, and his opponent also knows them, and they have mastered them to the same degree.

After three days of fighting, Si Chen finally flew out from the crack. His hair was disheveled, his clothes were stained with blood, and he no longer had his previous composure.

“Today I know what it feels like to fight with myself.”

Si Chen sighed, and then his body glowed, a large amount of chaotic energy overflowed, and he used the secret of human characters to repair his injuries.

“when……”

The time has come. The sound of bells echoes throughout the Holy Island of the Dead. All trial participants must leave this place, otherwise they will be sealed here.

There were figures at every exit, and some were slightly injured, while others were in high spirits as they walked out of the trial field.

After counting how many people came out, the commander closed the Holy Island of the Dead and brought them back to the first level.

More than twenty people died this time, which is a considerable number. You have to know that this is just a trial of enlightenment and there won’t be too many conflicts, but one-fifteenth of the people still died.

But everyone was very calm. They had already prepared themselves for death when they set foot on this ancient road. (End of this chapter)
