Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin: I Set Taboos in the Heavens

After Fang Qing destroyed the Lord of the Holy Land of Truth, he led many cultivators from the royal family of the Heavenly Realm back to the Feathered Gate.

When Fang Qing's shadow encountered a God of the Holy Land of Truth, his other avatars also encountered many Gods of the Holy Land of Truth.

The Holy Land of Truth dispatched ten Heavenly Lord-level beings to the Creation Heavenly Court to consolidate various forces, but after encountering Fang Qing, they naturally clashed one conflict after another.

The Lord of Jade was killed.

The master of Yuanjin was killed.

The Lord of Flowing Light was killed.

Even the person in charge of the Holy Land of Truth, Lord Wanyang, was killed by Fang Qing because of some things.

The Lord of Ten Thousand Suns ranked in the top ten on the list of candidates for Heavenly Emperor. He was far more powerful than Xi Huang, the Spear of Judgment, and the Spear of Revenge in the Heavenly Court. However, after encountering Fang Qing, who was invincible below the Heavenly Emperor, he was still killed by Fang Qing.

Countless opportunities, adventures, knowledge, and achievements of civilization have been acquired by Fang Qing, enabling him to continuously improve at every moment.

The passage of time has no meaning for Fang Qing. The immeasurable passage of time is just a moment to him, and a moment can be transformed into endless years under his control.

Thus, in that frantic accumulation, Fang Qing increasingly felt his own limits and the limitations of the entire universe.

The universe was originally the mother and father of all beings below the Heavenly Monarch. It was the universe that gave all living beings a way to live. However, as the strength of cultivators continued to increase, the universe could no longer contain them. The development of cultivators required them to completely break away from the universe.

At this time, there will be a very severe calamity.

The cultivators who can trigger such a calamity have already reached the peak of the Emperor realm. Many who are of the same lifespan as Heaven and Earth are only indulging in the pleasure of being of the same lifespan as Heaven and Earth, and are willing to obtain endless lifespan. They cannot even trigger the Heavenly Monarch calamity. Such people are naturally still a very long way from becoming Heavenly Monarchs.

Fang Qing had now reached the point where he could sense the impending tribulation of the Heavenly Monarch.

"It is time for me to become the King of Heaven."

Fang Qing did not undergo tribulation in the Feathered Ascension Sect. His body in the Feathered Ascension Sect was only a part of his body; his true self was in the Primordial Chaos Palace.

At this moment, he stood in the Hongmeng Palace, triggering his own tribulation. Instantly, the aura of a great calamity appeared in the endless depths of the planes, and the entire universe was in a state of great destruction, as if the five signs of decay of heaven and man had appeared ahead of schedule.

Countless auras of calamity swept in from all directions, transforming into countless terrifying calamities. Amidst these calamities, Fang Qing frantically absorbed a great deal of knowledge, intent, and Daoist principles related to calamities.

The so-called tribulations are actually part of the Great Dao, just like the Great Calamity Technique, which contains very profound meanings. Now, as Fang Qing begins to undergo tribulation, he can even clearly sense the civilizations, knowledge, and eras from many previous eras.

The entire world began to rage! It could feel that Fang Qing was actually eating and drinking its food, but now he was trying to break free from its control. Instantly, the world began to be enraged, and the heavens were completely furious.

Countless streams of primordial energy condensed into streams of primordial blood, ready to cleanse this filthy world once more.

The countless resentments, curses, killing intents, and demonic intents between heaven and earth condensed into all sorts of ghosts, gods, demons, and ancestral demons.

Even the countless demons and demonic thoughts within the Demon Realm crossed countless planes to flood towards Fang Qing, attempting to prevent his advancement and not allow anyone to escape the great cage of heaven and earth.

Countless corrupting energies surged forth, trying to penetrate Fang Qing's body, corrupt his body and will, and cause his complete demise.

However, at this moment, a raging fire broke out in Fang Qing's body. This fire was the fire of wisdom, the fire of civilization, the fire of countless artifacts, the fire of countless pills, and also the fire of many portals. In fact, Fang Qing himself seemed to be another incomparably terrifying portal, which burned away all the countless filthy energies.

Nothing could touch Fang Qing's body, nothing could taint him. At this moment, Fang Qing's wisdom, his courage, and the civilization he represented filled the past, present, and future, and he could refine all matter.

Your eyes will become my eyes!

"Your spine will become my scepter!"

Many evil auras appeared during the heavenly tribulation, cursing Fang Qing fiercely.

At this moment, Fang Qing's body manifested portals, which directly refined the curse.

He exuded an aura of invincibility; no curse or evil could harm him. As he destroyed these evils, he seemed to be contributing to the world. With numerous merits bestowed upon him, Fang Qing increasingly seemed to be breaking through obstacles and bursting forth from the heavens and earth. His entire being radiated an ever-increasing sense of freedom.

Waaaaah, waaaah...

Countless calamities then appeared, all of which were people Fang Qing had killed in the past. The faces of those people appeared, trying to stop Fang Qing from advancing.

This is a "karmic tribulation".

The Heavenly Lord's tribulations are no longer ordinary thunderbolts, but various kinds of cause and effect, fortune and karmic tribulations, which will hold people tightly in a cage and prevent them from getting out.

But what do karmic tribulations mean to Fang Qing?
In the early stages of his cultivation, he did indeed kill many cultivators, but these killings mainly occurred in his past main world, the Shrouding the Heavens Realm. By the time he obtained the coordinates of the Eternal Realm, his cultivation level was already extremely high.

After being reincarnated into this world, Fang Qing rarely killed cultivators. Even the many geniuses in the lower realms who opposed him, Fang Qing often spared their lives. For example, he allowed the Central Emperor to be reincarnated.

His mercy and divine will are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Therefore, Heaven and Earth's attempt to force Fang Qing to be unable to transcend through so-called karmic tribulations was clearly wishful thinking. With just a slight movement, Fang Qing caused those who were destined to die to be reincarnated into real people.

Thus, Fang Qing easily broke free from the karmic calamity.

Then some other calamities appeared, all of which tried to block Fang Qing's advancement.

But at this moment, Fang Qing's body was flawless and pure, filled with an aura untouched by any cause or effect. Moreover, flames burned within him, radiating a watery glow and flowing with countless wind and thunderous intents, erupting with profound and weighty realms, like the heavens, like the sun and moon. Thus, worldly things diminished, while the aura of a Heavenly Sovereign grew ever deeper. Rays of divine light shot out, and some of the laws governing heaven and earth began to break within his body.

Cause and effect cease, fate ceases, and many things in the secular world begin to break off; the entire world will have nothing to do with him anymore.

This is the King of Heaven!
Even if heaven and earth are destroyed, Fang Qing will not perish, unlike those who are in the realm of coexisting with heaven and earth. They are coexisting with heaven and earth, but when heaven and earth are heading towards great destruction, even those who are coexisting with heaven and earth will perish.

Fang Qing has been constantly undergoing numerous tribulations, and in those moments of mental transformation, countless Dao fruits and countless worlds have been born, enough to make a huge contribution to the entire universe.

Even above Fang Qing's head, a cloud of merit and auspiciousness appeared. It was not a way of transcending tribulations in this world, but Fang Qing said that sometimes it did exist.

When the cloud of merit appeared above Fang Qing's head, numerous instruments of torture also appeared above him, transforming into prisons, chains, knives, spears, halberds, and many other torture weapons.

At this moment, the will of heaven and earth actually evolved into instruments of torture, intending to kill Fang Qing. However, at this very moment, the cloud of merit above Fang Qing's head was still creating the void of the universe at all times, radiating endless divine light. Numerous merits shone above Fang Qing's head, shining even more brightly than the endless sun.

The so-called instruments of torture, the will of heaven and earth, did not even descend; they were directly burned away by the auspicious clouds of merit.

The calamity will not worsen.

This is Fang Qing's level of cultivation!

A cloud of merit and celebration lifted everything up.

Fang Qing possessed not only merit and auspicious clouds, but also numerous artifacts that exuded a transcendent aura. All the shackles within Fang Qing's body were broken, and in the end, the aura he emitted truly surpassed heaven and earth, reaching a new level.

The boundless majesty of the Heavenly Emperor emanated from Fang Qing's body, a cardboard box. Regardless of the heavens and earth looking down upon him, and despite endless calamities, he remained eternally present.

At the moment of attaining the Heavenly Monarch status, Fang Qing has become completely immortal and indestructible. No one in the world can harm him anymore. Those beings who seemed so powerful in the past are now insignificant in his eyes.

At this moment, Fang Qing was in the Hongmeng Palace, looking at Xi Huang, the Spear of Judgment, the Spear of Revenge, and others who were still fighting fiercely in the Heavenly Court, and felt that they were as weak as small ants.

Indeed, no matter how powerful an existence that coexists with heaven and earth, in Fang Qing's eyes now, it is as weak as a small ant. With a gentle stretch of his hand, those small ants will be destroyed and completely perish.

"I've been promoted! I've finally reached this point!"

Fang Qing spoke softly, and the entire universe trembled. The power of the Hongmeng Palace, a divine artifact of the heavens, was added to Fang Qing, causing his power to continue to increase dramatically.

He felt that no one in the world could stop him anymore.

He reached the realm of the Heavenly Lord, breaking free from the shackles of heaven and earth. His towering stature commanded the respect of everyone in the Hongmeng Palace.

Inside the Hongmeng Palace were all the various forces Fang Qing had established in the lower realm, such as the Feathered Gate, the Three Saints of Feathered Ascension, Wu Mingkong, Zhao Shenyang, and Wang Kunlun. They were all cultivating in the Hongmeng Palace.

The three immortal saints of yesteryear have now reached the realm of saintly immortals, only one step away from becoming supreme immortal emperors.

As for the peerless geniuses and elders of the Feathered Ascension Sect back then, such as the Transmission Elder, the Heavenly Punishment Elder, Jiang Rourou, and the Xuan Tie True Man, they also greatly improved their aptitude in the Hongmeng Palace and all cultivated to the realm of Saint Immortal.

Many cultivators from the ten immortal sects of the Xuanhuang Great World back then, such as the Star Lord, Star Lord's wife, and the Three Elders of the Star Sect, the Water Mirror Master of the Crystal Cave Heaven, the Sect Leader of the Tongtian Sword Sect, Sword Thirteen, Sword Fifteen, and Jiao Fei, and many Supreme Elders of the Sun and Moon Sword Sect, have now cultivated to the Yuan Immortal or Saint Immortal realm in the Hongmeng Palace.

As for the Linglong Immortal Venerable of Linglong Blessed Land, she has cultivated to the realm of the Supreme Immortal Emperor. Her cultivation progress is extremely fast. After entering the Hongmeng Palace, her cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. This is because, in principle, the Hongmeng Palace is originally Linglong Immortal Venerable's opportunity. No matter how powerful Fang Qing is, he is only temporarily residing there.

Now that Fang Qing has advanced to the Heavenly Monarch realm, she looked at him and felt that he was incredibly tall and mighty, giving her an endless sense of security. The many forbidden techniques in the Hongmeng Palace could not be activated much before reaching the Heavenly Monarch realm, but now, as Fang Qing's power flowed into the Hongmeng Palace, all of the more than 80,000 array diagrams in the Hongmeng Palace were activated.

The many cultivators practicing in the Hongmeng Palace saw countless Hongmeng talismans descend upon the palace, causing all the cultivators to have armor formed from Hongmeng Qi runes on their bodies.

This is the Primordial Battle Armor, empowered by the "Primordial Palace".

When the Heavenly Court is invaded by the gods, barbarians, sea creatures, and other races, the forbidden laws are activated, which greatly empowers every cultivator in the Heavenly Court. For example, a Saint Immortal can unleash the power of a Supreme Immortal Emperor, and a Supreme Immortal Emperor can achieve the ability to live as long as Heaven and Earth.

However, the Hongmeng Palace is even more wondrous. Amidst the operation of countless forbidden techniques, each piece of Hongmeng battle armor formed from Hongmeng Yuan Qi surpasses the ancient King-grade Immortal Artifacts. Furthermore, each person also wields a battle spear capable of destroying endless void.

An ancient and mysterious power flows through everyone's body.

This is a powerful enhancement array within the Hongmeng Palace.

In addition, Fang Qing activated many other array diagrams in the Hongmeng Palace, such as the "Enlightenment Divine Travel Array," which allows even the lowest-level Golden Immortal disciples to have profound comprehension abilities and comprehend principles that only Saint Immortal level experts can understand.

And each of the minor Golden Immortals, with the support of numerous grand formations, has reached the combat power of a Saint Immortal.

At this time, many disciples also broke through their cultivation levels one after another. Even the three immortal saints were shaken and actually cultivated to the level of the Supreme Immortal Emperor.

Wu Mingkong can be called the Sky Emperor.

Zhao Shenyang can be called the Yang Emperor.

Wang Kunlun can be called Emperor Kun.

The three were overjoyed, delighted that their Feathered Ascension Sect had produced such a peerless figure as Fang Qing.

As for the Linglong Immortal Venerable, she came to Fang Qing's side and said to him, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist. Now that you have been promoted to Heavenly Lord, I wonder what title you should have?"

"As for me, I'll call myself the Boundless Heavenly Lord." (End of Chapter)
