The Ancient Saint Emperor of the Heaven-shading

Chapter 74: Golden Signboard, Hell and God

Boom! The heavenly calamity was endless, the sea of ​​thunder was boundless, and every streak of blazing lightning illuminated the sky as it passed. Huge arcs of electricity boiled, shattering and evaporating the mountains and seas.

The thunder tribulation continued. The Sun King was engraved and recorded by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and turned into human-shaped lightning, becoming a kind of heavenly tribulation. It shocked all races and made everyone feel incomprehensible.

This should have been a grand event for the young master of the Original Lake to return to his ancestral bloodline, attract a massive thunderstorm, and become famous, but it ended up helping another person instead. What kind of thing is this?
But the people in the Original Lake didn't know what to say. At first, some people thought it was the Dao Hen of Emperor Yuan who appeared, and they all bowed down to worship him. But now, it turned out to be the Dao Hen of the Sun King. They kowtowed in vain, as they had worshipped the wrong ancestor.

When did this guy brand himself into the thunder tribulation? This is really deceptive and unkind!

Wang Hongwu stood with his hands behind his back, neither taking the initiative, nor refusing, nor taking responsibility. He remained silent. He was also slightly surprised that things would turn out like this. It was indeed hard for Yuan Gu, who was beaten by the humanoid lightning in the thunder tribulation.

Although he had formally achieved the bloodline power of the ancient prince and maintained the eight forbidden states, the gap between them in terms of tactics, defense, speed, and the use of killing moves was quite large. It was as if he was fighting Yuan Gu, who was half a level higher. It was not easy for him to withstand it.

"I think this Sun King is probably on the same level as Huo Qilin, Huang Xudao and others. He is one of the two shining stars outside the royal family, alongside the Dragon King. This is not an empty title." An ancestral king spoke, and he saw something. He had seen several ancient royal heirs take action, and their style was so impressive that he couldn't be wrong.

Hearing this, the expression of the titled Ancestral King of the Original Lake moved slightly. He probably understood that Yuan Gu's bloodline had returned to the level of a normal son of the ancient emperor, that is, the level of Yuan Huang's youngest son in his youth. But the problem was that no matter whether it was Huo Qilin and the others, or Tianlong King and Sun King, they were all the top group of the ancient princes, and were the "transcendents" cultivated vigorously by the ancient emperor.

Yuan Gu was still half a level behind them, so it was not surprising that he was suppressed and defeated throughout the whole process. It was just difficult for him to accept it, after all, he was their young master.

"In fact, this is just the beginning. With our uninterrupted cooperation in the future, it will definitely not be difficult for His Highness Yuangu's bloodline to reach the level of Huangxu Dao and others. Moreover, to revive the Original Lake, it is not just about strengthening his bloodline, right? There are more ordinary tribesmen and outstanding seedlings." Taiyin Tianwang spoke at the right time. The efficacy of their products has been revealed, and all that remains is for buyers to make an effort.

The titled Ancestral King of the Original Lake nodded. The effectiveness was indeed obvious to all. The young master had gained substantial benefits. He responded, "We trust the Ziwei Sect and hope to become the customer of the Dao Heart Fruit. We will discuss the cooperation in detail after the thunder tribulation is over. The royal family has always been willing to invest money in their work. You can rest assured about this."

"Looking at it this way, the effects of these things developed by the Ziwei Sect are indeed extraordinary. They can allow people with blood close to the ancient emperor to completely squeeze into that level. Then, do other ethnic groups have the hope of reaching the level of the ancient emperor's descendants for several generations?

We, the royal family, can also restore our descendants to the level of our ancestors. It is less difficult than the ancient princes and more cost-effective!"

The royal family also realized that the Ziwei Sect was showcasing its products. What could be more suitable and exciting to display than the heir of the royal family?
They could not resist this temptation and their anticipation for the upcoming event became even stronger. It was already foreseeable that the strength of the ethnic groups cooperating with Ziwei Sect in the future would definitely increase significantly, thereby widening the gap with other forces.

The scope of this radiation will become larger and larger, attracting more and more ethnic groups to join. When the gap between everyone becomes smaller and smaller, a new round of internal competition will be ushered in to see who cooperates more deeply with Ziwei Sect and buys more. This will be an invisible alliance, and one move will affect the whole body.

If such a situation is formed, it will be difficult for others to attack the Ziwei Sect, and the ethnic groups with conflicting interests with it will not agree.

"These things should be very useful to Taiyi. Our disciples in Wanlongchao also need them. It seems that we have to trade with Ziwei Sect." The Dragon Girl's expression changed slightly, and she also decided to carry out in-depth cooperation in this event.

While the scene was bustling, the other side was in great difficulty. Thunder rumbled, with no sign of subsiding. The human-shaped lightning was so powerful that it directly tore Yuangu's body apart, breaking it into two.

"The Yuan Guang reincarnation wheel will illuminate my immortal body!" The young master of the original lake performed a secret technique, and a crystal-clear and dazzling treasure wheel appeared between his remains. It was spotless and shone with immortal light. He reshaped his body with the power of heaven and earth. The former Yuan Emperor used this secret technique to achieve immortality, rule the world, and remain indestructible.

"The Yuanhuang technique has similar effects to the Zhe character secret. You can comprehend it and integrate it into the incomplete transformation of the Tianzun." Wang Hongwu was quite interested. With his martial arts eyes opened, he was copying and learning. He wanted to master the ancient emperor's technique. This was really hard to believe.

"The human-shaped lightning is so powerful, and the real body is no less powerful. Are Huo Qizi and the others also this strong? It shouldn't be possible."

Yuan Gu, who had recovered from his injuries, looked solemn as he stared at the incarnation of the Sun King in front of him. He felt that the facts were too different from what he knew. The treasure wheel above his head appeared again, shining his own immortality and the destruction of his enemies. The mystery was difficult to decipher.

"Get out of the way! This light cannot reach us." Wherever the Yuan Guang passed, many people's eyes bled and they retreated in fear. This happened just a few dozen miles away. One can imagine what kind of terrifying power was nearby.

He brought Baolun and fought against Wang Hongwu's Daohen. Wherever the two passed, the mountains were as fragile as paper and vulnerable to any blow. Every gesture he made was to create a new world and destroy all the old order. With a wave of his hand, mountains flew up in large numbers, and with a roar, they were all shattered in the sky.

Seeing the imperial technique revealed, Wang Hongwu's human-shaped lightning also used the secret method. The Sun Emperor Fist reappeared, and he walked like a dragon and a tiger, charging forward directly and smashing with his fist raised, with an air of dominance.

Boom! The two fists slammed into the Yuanguang Reincarnation Wheel, emitting a myriad of rays of light, shattering it inch by inch, transforming it into chain after chain of laws, which disappeared into the void. Looking at this scene, Yuan Gu couldn't help but tremble in his heart, feeling a subtle sense of frustration. What kind of flesh and blood was this?
"The Yuanhuang Treasure Wheel was directly smashed to pieces?" "What kind of supreme scripture did this Sun King practice to achieve such a fiery and overbearing fist?"

People were shocked. They just thought that the ancient emperor's secret technique was going to be useful, but it was blown up by a punch. This scene was too hurtful to their self-esteem.

In the distance, the faces of the people in the Primitive Lake all changed. This was the first time the wheel of reincarnation had been broken head-on since the catastrophe that year. The Sun Emperor's Fist was too powerful. When he swung his fist, the sun would burst forth, and his aura was unparalleled.

"It seems that I have to use the killer move I prepared for Huo Qizi and the others. Sun King, you, a human-shaped lightning, can actually force me to this point. You are hiding too deeply. In fact, you are more terrifying than those ancient royal heirs." Yuangu whispered, took a deep breath, and used the killer move.

Only a soft sound was heard, which instantly drowned out all the light and all the sounds. A divine sword about an inch long appeared between his eyebrows, shining brightly and clanging.

"What? Is that the sword of the saint, or the secret weapon of the ancient emperor?" Everyone's expression changed strangely, because they felt a strange power. Before the magic sword was unleashed, the sword wave had already destroyed the endless mountains, rivers and land.

This is not a weapon, but an evolution of a divine principle of the Great Dao. After materialization, it has the shape of a sword, but its essence is the Dao, so it is called the Yuanhuang Dao Sword. Its killing power is unprecedented and terrifying.

"It finally appeared. This is the forbidden magic in the scriptures left by Emperor Yuan. Everyone who saw it in the past has died. It is the sword of transformation that killed Emperor Yuan's enemy in Qixiayuan!" An ancestor king said to himself, revealing the truth.

Transformation, that is a scary word. The more powerful the cultivator is, the more afraid he is of it, because sooner or later he will face the day when he will become a part of the laws of heaven and earth and disappear.

"Is this the advantageous area of ​​the Primitive Lake? Can it be compared with the Lingxu Shenzhao Yin of the Dragon King and the Yuanshen Hedao of the Sun King?" Everyone gasped. This was the secret of the Yuanhuang's forbidden secret technique. When you draw on the power of the Tao, no matter how great your magical powers are, they will be useless.

Facing this attack, Wang Hongwu's human-shaped lightning also attacked fiercely, without any fear, let alone retreat. The ancient characters of the Sun Mother Sutra appeared all over his body, and his body suddenly split apart, turning into one bright red sun after another.

Forbidden Solar Technique: Ten Suns Across the Sky! Suddenly, ten suns rose into the sky, revealing a vast expanse of desolate land behind them. Thousands of beasts ran, and giant mountains shook. Ten suns crossed the sky, burning everything.

Visible flames were flying, flooding the sky and burning the universe red, like a melting pot, shattering everything. It collided with the power of the Yuanhuang Dao Sword. The flames kept disappearing and reappearing. The two emperors' great paths were colliding, and the scriptures were resonating.

Eighteen ancient characters flew into the sky in succession, nine with white light and flying feathers, and nine with red light and golden clouds, forming two majestic figures that suppressed the times and swept across the world, dominating the nine heavens, and their teachings shook the ages.

Although it was just a vague shadow, the ancestral kings could feel the supreme majesty of the emperor. It contained a trace of the Dao rhyme of Yuan Emperor and Sun Saint Emperor, as well as scattered fragments of laws. It was extremely terrifying.

People finally understood what the forbidden secret technique on the last page of the scripture written by the ancient emperor was. It was unparalleled in killing power. Once it was used, it would kill powerful enemies and there would be no way to compete with it.

This was an unusual contest between the Sun Saint Emperor and the Yuan Emperor, which shocked everyone, and all living beings were even more horrified. Was that the human race's prover?

Did they really give birth to an ancient emperor?
Doesn’t that mean that the Sun King also comes from the royal family?

The tribesmen of the Original Lake also looked at each other in bewilderment. They felt much better in their hearts. The royal families could win or lose among themselves, but being defeated by other tribes was a completely different matter.

"The light is immortal, the flame is unextinguished. This power is completely opposite to the power of transformation. Its creator is probably a saint emperor with a broad mind. His style cannot be faked." During the fight, Yuan Gu was deeply touched, but the humanoid lightning on the other side had no intention of waiting. What he possessed was the same as Wang Hongwu, and naturally he also had another emperor scripture.

Forbidden Taiyin Technique: Freeze Eternally! He performed the technique once again, and the emanating Taiyin divine power formed a hundred-mile-wide mist, gloomy and dark. Then the black mist filled the sky like a sea, freezing the sky in an instant, forming a huge black ice block that filled the entire sky and froze Yuan Gu and the Dao Sword together.

An extremely terrifying scene suddenly appeared under the dome. The huge mountains that were thousands of feet high and pierced the clouds were all frozen into ice peaks. The drifting sea of ​​clouds was also completely frozen into a black continent. The cold was so severe that it could break people's bones.

"Such a terrifying cold air, it has frozen the divine power even at such a distance?" Even the King of Slashing was retreating, his heart horrified, unable to face this secret technique directly.

Even they were in this situation. Yuangu, who had endured the forbidden attack head-on, felt even worse. He had to use the Yuanguang Reincarnation Wheel to repair his injured body again, but the attack of the humanoid lightning would not subside. Shocking collisions continued to occur. Yuangu coughed up blood, and all kinds of lights were flying among them. Those were the fragments of the Tao that were collapsing and shaking the heaven and earth.

The truth was cruel. He really was no match for this human-shaped lightning. He was barely able to fight back and hold on, hoping to survive this thunderstorm.

Who could have imagined that a human-shaped lightning bolt would strike the person undergoing the tribulation, eclipsing the ancient emperor's bloodline.

"Oh no! Will this thunder tribulation fail because of this unexpected change?" One of the ancestral kings changed color. If this were true, Primitive Lake would probably go crazy. The only ancient prince in history to die in a thunder tribulation, beaten to death by a human-shaped lightning bolt, was too outrageous.

Hearing this, Wang Hongwu's mind immediately touched upon the divine spear, the symbol of the Great Heavenly Tribulation Technique, hoping to use it to influence the thunder tribulation and retract his human-shaped lightning. After several influences, the offensive of the human-shaped lightning finally eased, as if the heavenly tribulation was coming to an end, which made the people in the Primitive Lake breathe a sigh of relief, as they were really worried.

After a moment, he controlled the human-shaped lightning to shake his body a few times, creating the illusion that the thunder tribulation was about to end. Then he abandoned Yuangu, the person who was undergoing the tribulation, and ascended to the sky step by step, arriving at the palace above the sea of ​​thunder.

Boom! The humanoid lightning stood before the gate of the Supreme Hall. He turned around and blasted the entire sea of ​​thunder with a punch, dispersing the calamity clouds. All the calamity light was swallowed up by him and transformed into the shadow of the thunder pool. Thus, the ancient thunder tribulation was overcome.

The next moment, the portal closed, the human-shaped lightning disappeared, and the entire palace faded away, revealing the blue sky again, as if it had never appeared.

"Is this... the time of thunder tribulation coming?"

"That's right. It lasted long enough. After all, it's a special thunder tribulation."

People looked at each other in confusion, wondering if this could be considered as overcoming the tribulation?
This is the first time I’ve seen a human-shaped lightning explode the thunder and leave by himself. What a good guy!
It’s just a pity for the young master of the Original Lake, as he had to go through many twists and turns to overcome the disaster.

However, once it gets out, it will become a topic of conversation. At least from ancient times to the present, he is the only one who has encountered such a thing. He is destined to be recorded in history, passed down through the ages, and become a "predecessor" in the mouths of passers-by in later generations.

"I've never experienced such an outrageous tribulation in my life. Even my ancestors didn't see anything like this, right? The strength of the human-shaped lightning surpasses that of the tribulation survivor. Haha, I'm the first one to do this in eternity."

Yuan Gu smiled bitterly. Although his strength and bloodline had made great progress, he couldn't be happy and his mood was very complicated.

"Young Master, how do you feel?" The ancestral kings of the Primitive Lake gathered around and looked at him eagerly. Their tribe had finally restored a true ancient prince!
With a future quasi-emperor, ancient imperial soldiers, imperial formations and the Great Sage, this is a truly complete royal family that has reversed the decline.

It was really a good decision to come to Ziwei Sect this time!

"I feel better than ever. My bloodline has indeed returned to the level of an ancient prince, filling the last gap. My clansmen can rest assured." Upon hearing this, Yuan Gu suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart and put on a confident look. His spirits were very high, obviously different from before, and it could be said that he was far better than before.

He even had a subtle feeling that after fighting with the Sun King's humanoid lightning, although he was under pressure and beaten, his fighting methods and combat instincts had also improved a lot, which had both advantages and disadvantages.

"What? Do you want to continue fighting?" Wang Hongwu looked at him with a smile. This time, he didn't need to take action himself. The Dao Mark in the thunder tribulation had already taken care of everything. He still had to practice the Great Heavenly Tribulation Technique.

Yuan Gu looked at him, his heart suddenly calmed down. He shook his head and said, "No need. I understood some things when I fought with the humanoid lightning. There is indeed still a gap. You were right before. I apologize to you."

He also knew in his heart that if the Sun King was defeated in all three battles, it would be a real disgrace to his hometown and bring shame to the Original Lake. Therefore, he would not do that and frankly acknowledged the gap between the two sides.

Wang Hongwu blinked, and he was much more rational than he thought, so he smiled and said, "No problem, if you and I cooperate more, it is inevitable that our bloodline will be further developed. By then, we will not be inferior to Huang Xudao and the others."

"Haha, the future grand scene is great. Now that everyone has reached a consensus, the event can begin smoothly."

Taiyin Tianwang looked around with a smile. This magnificent scene was what he had been looking forward to since he came to Beidou. Now it was finally realized with the help of Wang Hongwu, opening up a new world for the human race.

Once today's matter is accomplished, the Ziwei human race will have a firm foothold in Beidou and will be worthy of our ancestors.

"Of course, we are all looking forward to cooperating with the Ziwei Sect. This is a great opportunity to strengthen the foundation of our tribe."

"Yeah, I don't know how to trade this method of purifying bloodline besides the Dao Heart Fruit."

The various ethnic groups that arrived were naturally extremely enthusiastic. After all, there was a good example right in front of them. Yuangu had already become the shining signboard of the Dao Heart Fruit Festival, and no one wanted to miss it.

Wang Hongwu smiled upon hearing this and said, "Blood purification is a special method of our Ziwei Sect. It is restricted to certain areas and can only be performed within the mountain gate. Therefore, the number of places is limited, and priority must be given to the royal family. The rest of you can arrange yourselves according to the level of your contributions and come one by one."

"In that case, let's start the event quickly. The effectiveness of the Dao Heart Fruit is obvious to all, and we can't wait." Since all the tribes have come, they are willing to invest money. Seeing this, they did not hesitate and clamored to start quickly. They also wanted to achieve the rejuvenation of their tribe.

"Haha, what a lively event! How can we be absent from such an event?"

At this moment, an untimely voice sounded, interrupting the scene abruptly. Immediately afterwards, a murderous aura like an iron-blooded conquest instantly swept across the vast sky. A team of cavalry rushed over, with people shouting and beasts roaring, and their momentum was strong.

They were fierce and murderous, and each ancient beast was covered in iron armor with a cold metallic luster. The knights sitting on them were ferocious and powerful, all wearing ghost-face masks, and each of them had a strong breath of death.

Who is this? Everyone frowned. How dare they disturb the Purple Star Sect's mountain gate at this time? Didn't they see that the three royal families were entrenched there? Who was so bold as to dare to provoke them?
Wang Hongwu also had a cold expression as he stared at the newcomers. These knights were covered in the smell of blood. They had crawled out of a pile of dead bodies, and the breath of death was alarming.

People can't even feel the fluctuations of life. It's like they came from the underworld, had been dead for endless years, and now have been summoned back to this world.

"The bloodline of the Moon and the Sun, there is such a pure existence outside the Purple Star. God is really helping me." The leading Death Knight spoke, his voice like two iron plates rubbing together, sharp and harsh, making people's skin covered with goose bumps and feel uncomfortable all over.

You can even see that there are many rotten and broken parts on their bodies, and the blood flowing there is clearly visible, but it is black blood, very demonic and evil.

"Black blood? They are actually flowing with this kind of blood, it's the blood of the underworld!" A saint from outside the domain trembled, feeling a headache, with a trace of fear in his eyes, knowing where they came from.

It is the legendary underworld!
The corpses become spiritual, reincarnate and become knights of the underworld. The blood flowing in their bodies is now black, not bright red. This is the awakening of the power of the underworld.

Why did the underworld come?

At this moment, people were a little dazed, unable to understand their purpose. Were they here for the bloodline of the Sun King?

Then, the Knight of the Underworld suddenly paused and looked towards the eastern sky. "Are you the remnants of the underworld who are still lingering around again? Do you really like to chase after us?"

Is there anyone else? People looked in that direction and saw a white-robed figure descending from the sky. He wore a mask with the word "God" inscribed on it. He was hostile to the underworld and said bluntly, "Why am I chasing after a bunch of gutter rats like you? I'm here to revive the great cause of Heaven."

"You are so boastful. Who can reproduce the great achievements of the Heavenly Palace?" The Knight of the Underworld sneered. The ancient Heavenly Palace has collapsed for tens of thousands of years. How can it be revived?

"Him!" The person from the Divine Organization pointed at Wang Hongwu and said excitedly and solemnly, "I came here for him, the legacy of the old Lord of Heaven, that similar flower!"

Relics from Heaven?

Similar flowers?

People were confused, but soon realized that a portrait of the ancient Heavenly Court had appeared in the ruins of the Heavenly Palace under the Eastern Wasteland Purgatory. The Mingzun in the portrait indeed looked exactly like the Sun King, and the power he controlled was extremely similar.

Even the Holy Prince was shocked and doubtful. He originally thought that Wang Hongwu was the surviving son of Ming Zun. Now it seems that it is likely to come true. The old subordinates of the ancient heaven have come to him.

"Similar flowers? You said...he is related to Ming Zun?!"

At this moment, the visitor from the underworld was also unable to remain calm. He stared at Wang Hongwu with a pair of deathly eyes, with a bit of fear and solemnity.

The man who was as close to Lord Ming as a brother actually had a backup plan left after eternity?
