From a martial arts disciple to a god through countless trials and tribulations

Chapter 396 Chen Xuan Breaks Through the Divine Light

"Boom..."

Lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the purple sky spread, reaching the Taixu realm thousands of miles away from the celestial palace.

The Xuanpin Bull Demon flew out from the palm of the Dragon Shadow Demon Immortal. His scattered cultivation instantly reassembled, and his rising immortal might smashed through the void, returning him to the Immortal Realm.

"Xiang Liu, this monkey in a crown, when driven to desperation, actually hid the Eternal Venerable and used it as a weapon... What is he? How dare he imitate the Empress's actions?"

He snorted coldly, and then he rubbed the ancient sage's relics on his body with his knuckles. Auspicious clouds rose and divine power rippled.

"boom!"

Ahead, the Ascension Platform of the Celestial Palace crashed through Shangyang Heaven and plunged into the Great Ruins.

Xuanpin Bull Demon considered the feasibility of reviving the relics from this place and spreading them far and wide, so as to capture Wan Shizun, the Empress, Xinzhai, and others in one fell swoop. However, in the end, he suppressed the idea.

"Old Dragon, you haven't even mastered all the thunder magic in the world. This immortal position should be given to someone who comes after you." The Xuanpin Bull Demon turned his head and looked at the Dragon Shadow Demon Immortal with a mocking smile.

Even now, far removed from the Heavenly Mandate of the Supreme Being, the Immortals remain insurmountable beings, and the Supreme Being will no longer have the qualification or opportunity to overstep them.

"..."

After a long silence, the Dragon Shadow Demon Immortal spoke, his scales flashing with lightning: "The Venerable One of Ten Thousand Worlds has shallow understanding of the Dao. Only after a thousand years, when his understanding deepens, will he know what it means to attain the Dao through lightning as the [Sky Thunder Responding Dragon Lord].

The Venerable One of Ten Thousand Worlds has not been cultivating for long, and the number of thunder techniques he has practiced is too small, and they are all unorthodox.

Not to mention its own system of destiny laws, the Four Imperial Laws are also "unorthodox" and have not been seen since ancient times... This really stumped the old dragon.

"Old Dragon, you have been in slumber for too long and have been detached from the mortal world for far too long. You are too old." The Xuanpin Bull Demon commented with a smile. The immortals of recent times who could not keep up with the times could only be defeated by the mortal world in the end.

Its power is not obvious, yet even the mortal lords of the Little Dragon Palace dare to covet its immortal position. On the other hand, the mortal plague fighting department is much more obedient.

"The worldly splendor is like a bubble, and descendants are all vanity, ultimately turning to ashes. What is there to cherish? To distance oneself from the mortal world is to become a true immortal."

The Dragon Shadow Immortal's voice turned cold, and he cast his gaze into the depths of the Immortal Palace, saying in a low voice, "I am worried that the Empress and the others will ruin the world, and I also fear that they will awaken the Chief, and in the end they will be able to do nothing."

The Empress, accompanied by Xinzhai, ventured deep into the Immortal Palace. No one knew how the storm that followed would sweep across the world.

"The worst that could happen is that the old history related to the chieftain will disappear and a new chapter will begin in the five directions."

"Ha, that's easy for you to say..."

The Xuanpin Bull Demon tightened its grip on the spear, its expression growing increasingly solemn: "That Rain Master Daoist, Feiyue, is indeed neglecting his duties, having already departed to avoid disaster."

"The old emperor of the human race also passed on the decaying cave to Qi Tianyun long ago, probably foreseeing that he would not have a good end." The Dragon Shadow Demon Immortal then said with a smile, his expression appearing calm.

……

In the divine space of destiny.

"hold head high!"

Fragments of time fell like snowflakes, a dark moon slowly rose, and the ancient Candle Dragon's roar pierced through time and space, shaking even the very soul.

Chen Xuan stepped down from the black moon's phantom and stood atop the floating jade platform. The chill on his jade face was bone-deep, making him pale. When it comes to the struggle for immortality, one is always walking on thin ice!
The second move of the Candle Dragon Technique – Darkness!
Time seemed to flow slower in this small area!
"In the ancestral land of the Dao at the end of the Immortal and Ghost Era, there still reside the Venerable One of Ten Thousand Generations, the Yin-Yang Couple, the Lords of Two Realms, and the Supreme God of the Dao... On the otherworldly path in search of the supreme relics, there are still those who intercept destiny, question time, enact the Black Law, and 'Do Not Speak of Me'..."

In the void, within the unfolded jade slip, a chilling voice still echoed: "Please select your identity..."

The power of time in the darkness rises, but everything that was supposed to happen will still happen, without diminishing in the slightest.

Chen Xuan felt a chill in his heart. If he hadn't been cautious and activated the Candle Dragon Technique the moment he stepped into this place, his soul and consciousness would have been destroyed and he would have been reincarnated!

"Supreme Mandate of Heaven, indeed terrifying." He thought to himself, no wonder he was a person who used his destiny to defeat his contemporary Xinzhai, he was not undeserving of his reputation.

He had entered many Destiny Spaces, where he was treated like a supreme emperor, with nothing daring to defy his will.

During the Mountain and Sea Banquet, he also entered the Supreme Heavenly Mandate of Ten Thousand Worlds at the [Mortal World] level. Although he encountered some resistance from Heavenly Mandate, he was still relatively restrained and relaxed overall.

But at this moment, upon entering the realm of the gods, he didn't even see the main figure before being nearly killed instantly.

"After becoming the Chosen One [Tao Hongchen], he became very strong." Chen Xuan's thoughts were churning. He wondered what the current Chosen One's space was like, and whether the strange creatures inside would rebel.

"Don't wait any longer, get started!" A muffled voice rang out from the fire, urging, "If the divine will of Shenlingming descends, no one will be spared!"

Although Chen Xuan's soul, nourished by the Emperor's Banner, far surpassed that of his contemporaries, it was still but a drop in the ocean before the immortals.

Without the Empress's power to protect him, if Shen Lingming's soul were to fall, he would truly perish in an instant, with no chance of survival.

"Remember, you must conceal your identity when you walk the path of destiny, or you will be eliminated..." The voice in the jade slip continued to ring out, and the predetermined fate was closing in step by step.

Chen Xuan had no chance to study the mysteries of this destiny, and his golden-red spiritual energy rapidly gathered in his eyes.

Triple Heart Fasting!

This level of mental purification could destroy the Heavenly Fate Space. In an instant, a golden beam of light swept from his pupils, and with a clang, the jade slip in front of him shattered, cracks spreading like a spider web, splitting open and instantly turning into ashes that scattered. "Tear!"

Wherever Chen Xuan looked, everything vanished. The void tore apart like paper, and the floating jade platform beneath his feet cracked open with a fissure over ten feet wide. Dark cracks spread along the platform into the distance, as if to split the entire space in two.

At this moment, the Destiny Space fell into an eerie silence, with only the crisp sound of the jade platform collapsing echoing in the void, extremely jarring.

The next instant, sharp whistling sounds rang out from thousands of jade slips on the floating jade platforms in other locations.

"External evils—"

"External evils—"

"External evils—"

Immediately afterwards, a series of cold and majestic voices, like thunderclaps, descended once more, carrying immense power, pressing down on Chen Xuan.

"Boom!" Golden and white divine chains emerged from the cracks in the jade platform, crystal clear and carrying incomparably holy power, rapidly mending the wounds torn by the Heart-Cleansing Beam.

"The Reverse Heart-Cleansing Technique?!" Chen Xuan was shocked. Without a doubt, this was the method that Shen Lingming used to deal with his contemporary Heart-Cleansing Technique in the past, and it could even repair the damage caused by the Heart-Cleansing Technique!

At the same time, a terrifying aura rose behind him.

He was prepared. He turned around abruptly, and the beam of his inner light swept towards him. With a bang, a golden scabbard that had appeared out of nowhere flew out.

Chen Xuan saw it clearly this time; he had been attacked by the golden sword sheath earlier and was blown to dust by a gust of wind emanating from the sheath.

"Keng!"

However, Chen Xuan's pupils shrank as he saw terrifying fluctuations rising from the jade platforms and jade slips in other regions, transforming into thousands of golden sword sheaths that swarmed towards him like locusts, as if they wanted to forcibly sheath him!
"You want to sheath me? Ridiculous! I'll defeat you with your own power!"

Chen Xuan's eyes flashed, and the pillar of light from his Heart Cleansing swept across once more. His Heart Cleansing had seen the Immortal-level Imperial Edict Fruit before; that was the eleventh Heavenly Mandate he had experienced, and the strength of his Heart Cleansing had increased dramatically.

At this moment, he has entered the realm of the most powerful Destiny God in recent history, and his strength has been enhanced to an unprecedented degree.

"Bang!"

One by one, the golden sword sheaths were swept away and flew backward. The sheaths were instantly filled with the power of the Heart Cleansing, swelling up like a ball about to burst, and trembling continuously in the void.

But more golden sword sheaths followed one after another, surrounding him from all directions, densely packed and blotting out the sky, as if to completely engulf him!

"Hiss..." Chen Xuan's head was spinning, because the sword sheaths that had been blown away by the power of the Heart Cleansing had not disintegrated. Instead, they hovered in the air for half a circle, and the mouths of the sheaths were once again aimed at him. They all hummed, and silver threads of light seeped out of the sword sheaths, weaving into a net that covered him.

The power of spiritual purification was reversed and refined by the sword sheath? Unheard of!

"We can't delay any longer! Hurry, hurry, hurry!" The figure inside the furnace kept urging.

"Destroy the Mandate of Heaven and return to the Five Directions Land immediately," Chen Xuan thought to himself. As his eyes opened and closed, a golden-red beam of light, like an angry dragon emerging from the sea, crashed fiercely into the silver giant net and the countless sword sheaths!

Although the goddess said that the deity was preoccupied with some matters, she also said that once the deity sensed a crisis, it would react accordingly.

"Can you finish all of this?!" He pushed his fasting to its limit.

"boom!"

Finally, the silver net was blasted through, tearing open a large hole. Countless sword sheaths flew out and scattered, bursting open and turning into ashes that drifted down.

"The current method of Xinzhai is even better than the ancient method!" The voice of the fire in the furnace praised excitedly, as if it were he who had shattered the divine and rebellious method of Xinzhai.

"Xiang Liu, that usurper and parasite, is all bark and no bite. He's really bluffing!" Chen Xuan thought to himself with certainty.

The deity is indeed powerful, but how could its old methods of dealing with the seventh generation Shinzai have the same effect on the later Shinzai?

Otherwise, why did the Eighth Generation Xinzhai take the Nine Yang Immortals with him when he perished?

It should be understood that even the most wicked and evil Supreme Mandate can only be on par with Xinzhai.

Immortal Lord Xiangliu risked his own life to stop Chen Xuan and the Mountain Spirit Goddess, which must have been because he sensed something was wrong and knew that the Reverse Heart Fasting Technique was not as powerful as he had imagined against Chen Xuan!
"Boom!" Countless sword sheaths exploded, everything disappeared, and clarity returned.

Chen Xuan let out a deep breath. This was the first time he had ever faced such a difficult situation with the Heavenly Fate Space. At this moment, he felt his eyes burning as if they were about to be burned to ashes again.

"Furnace, you are the supreme treasure for refining immortal pills. If the God Lingming comes, you'd better stand up straight." He touched his abdomen, adjusted his qi slightly, and immediately seized the time to divert his mental energy to destroy the God Lingming's destiny space.

"boom!"

First, the jade platform beneath their feet cracked in two. Then, two beams of golden-red light shot straight into the center of the sky, tearing open a huge, deep crack, and large fragments of space fell like rain.

The Destiny Space of the Divine Spirit Ming.

It began to collapse.

However, the divine spirit and will of the deity still did not appear in the destiny.
