Shrouding the Heavens: Starting by joining the Holy Land of Yao Guang

Chapter 251 The Great Tribulation of the Saints
Li Yao was unaware that Jiang Taixu's visit had led the Qinggui Clan to mistakenly believe that the Yaoguang Holy Land had joined forces with the Jiang family, which greatly frightened them.

Even the Golden Clan was a little unsure of what to do and settled down.

This is also why the Eastern Wilderness is so peaceful; it is as hot as a boiling oil pot, yet it remains calm with few ripples.

Li Yao didn't care about the ancient races' reaction. As his cultivation improved, his fear of the ancient races diminished.

In this world today, there are fewer and fewer people who can threaten his life, unless they are Heavenly King level experts wielding Emperor weapons to attack and kill him.

But that's impossible. Imperial weapons cannot be used lightly. Right now, the human race and all other races are like a taut string. If one side uses an imperial weapon, the other side will react, and it might even lead to a complete war.

This is why Li Yaojun did not bring the Dragon Pattern Cauldron when he arrived at the Qinggui Clan.

"Our strength is still too weak." Li Yao sighed softly in the main hall.

If he were to have the cultivation level of a Great Sage, he would not be so hesitant in his actions; he would be more decisive and have fewer concerns.

Now, the ancient races are coming on strong, and the human race seems to be in an absolutely weak position, with a huge gap in strength between them and the other races.

Of course, this refers to the entire human race, excluding extreme factions. But actually, including extreme factions makes little difference at present.

The true strength of each faction has not yet been revealed; based solely on their apparent power, even the most powerful factions are nothing special.

As for when the true strength of each major power will emerge, judging from Yao Guang, it will be around the time before the Dark Turmoil.

Aside from their respective family backgrounds, currently in the Eastern Wilderness, and even in the Big Dipper region, only Gai Jiuyou and Wei Yi are capable of resisting the major royal families.

Gai Jiuyou was like a candle flickering in the wind, his every move carefully planned. If he had a choice, he wouldn't waste his chance to fight for the sake of the ancient races.

This is not just wild speculation; it is exactly as described in the original work. In the early stages, Gai Jiuyou genuinely did not intend to take action but rather wanted to prioritize harmony and the coexistence of all races.

The reason they finally took action was because the ancient clans were too audacious, so they targeted the ten most ferocious clans without intending to wipe them all out.

Did Gai Jiuyou not want to eliminate these ancient clans that despised the human race? Of course he did, but his body wouldn't allow him to act rashly.

The dark turmoil two hundred years from now will be the darkest turmoil in history. The path to immortality will open, and many supreme beings will be born.

They are destined to fail, and in order to continue to survive, they will hunt down all living beings.

Compared to this calamity, the myriad races of the Primordial Era were nothing more than a minor ailment.

As a former supreme-level powerhouse, Gai Jiuyou knew many secrets, and was especially familiar with the path to immortality.

He knew what the universe would look like then, so he clung to life.

Gai Jiuyou wasn't afraid of death; he just wanted to die in a more meaningful way, to use his life for the dark turmoil, rather than wasting it among the ancient races.

This is why, in the original story, during the battle with the Golden Clan Great Sage and the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest Great Sage, he only killed the Golden Clan Great Sage and did not continue to kill the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest Great Sage.

Because with each additional attack, his life would be one step shorter, and if he continued to attack, the others in the ancient clan would not stand idly by.

It should be noted that after the fall of the Golden Clan's Great Sage, the royal family secretly revived the imperial weapon, unleashing its ultimate divine power, the meaning of which is self-evident.

Hun Tuo Dasheng and some powerful royal clan leaders personally appeared and stood in front of Gai Jiuyou.

Therefore, in the world today, no one can completely suppress all races, not even Gai Jiuyou, unless they pay an extremely high price.

But Gai Jiuyou would definitely not do that. If his life essence were severely depleted, he might not even have the chance to achieve ultimate sublimation.

Even though Wei Yi is a Great Sage, he cannot withstand the combined might of many royal Great Sages if Gai Jiuyou does not intervene.

Moreover, the further one progresses in cultivation, the greater the gap in combat power becomes. Although the early stage of Great Saint and the peak of Great Saint are at the same level, the difference between them is like heaven and earth.

In the original novel, Ye Fan, the forbidden prince of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, Ji Zi, the imperial prince of the Ji family, the Holy Prince, and Hei Huang, the imperial prince of Yaochi... these four great saints at the imperial prince level, wielding the four imperial weapons of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, the Void Mirror, the Immortal Iron Rod, and the Spirit Treasure Killing Sword, as well as the Two Corners of the Beginningless Killing Array, went through a lot of effort to suppress and kill the peak great saint, Lao Tengshe.

Although that Teng Snake had already reached the Quasi-Emperor realm with half of its body, and was no longer considered a normal Great Saint, this still shows how difficult it is to fight beyond one's level in later realms.

Those are four imperial weapons and two hornless killing formations, not some common cabbage, while that Teng Snake only has two quasi-imperial weapons and no imperial weapons at all.

With such a formidable lineup, they chased Tengshe across half the universe before finally killing him.

The ancient clans' guardian saints, whether it be the Golden King, Qianlun, Yanqi, or the Great Saint of Blood Phoenix Mountain... are all at the peak of the Great Saint realm, just one step away from becoming a Quasi-Emperor.

Although Wei Yi is a Great Sage, he has not gone far within the Great Sage realm, at least not yet reaching the peak of the Great Sage realm.

His strength would be insufficient to contend with any one of the aforementioned Great Sages, let alone all of them.

Moreover, the ancient race has more than just these Great Saints; the Great Saints who persuaded peace, such as Hun Tuo and Kun Zhou Great Saint, are not ordinary people either.

Therefore, in the world today, among all human races, only Gai Jiuyou is truly invincible. Apart from him, none of the other races have the confidence to defeat the ancient great saints.

Li Yao was somewhat helpless. The only invincible being was wounded in battle, and even taking action was a luxury.

At first, he did consider finding Gai Jiuyou and asking him to use the Dragon Pattern Cauldron to suppress the ancient clans, but later he felt it was unrealistic and gave up on the idea.

If they really wanted to do it, they would have done it long ago in the original work, instead of waiting until the ancient clans went too far before taking action to suppress the ten fierce clans in order to intimidate all other races.

This path was destined to be a dead end; he knew he didn't have the ability to change the mind of a supreme being.

Relying on others is useless, so he can only rely on himself. Li Yao only seeks to have a clear conscience. As for completely eliminating the ancient clans, he does not have that ability at present.

Time flies by like a fleeting moment.

The ancient tribes fell silent and stopped causing trouble, giving Li Yao much more time to cultivate.

He sat cross-legged in the Holy Lord's Hall to comprehend the Dao and cultivate himself. Every so often, he would enter the realm of creation to meditate, and thus his understanding of the Great Dao was rapidly increasing.

At the same time, his body absorbed the essence of the divine source like a whale drinking water from a cow, thus increasing his magical power...

The realms are mainly divided into Dao Xing, Cultivation, and Primordial Spirit. Among them, Dao Xing is the most difficult to improve. Ordinary cultivators mainly improve Dao Xing during their cultivation. As for Cultivation and Primordial Spirit, they will accumulate to perfection over a long period of time and reach flawlessness.

Li Yao, on the other hand, has sufficient cultivation level, but his actual cultivation level is not yet high enough, so he needs to absorb essence to improve his cultivation.

This situation is extremely rare, but it has been a recurring theme in Li Yao's cultivation history since he embarked on his cultivation journey.

This is also why his cultivation progressed so quickly. Consider how long he has been cultivating, at most only about twenty years, yet he is already a half-saint, only half a step away from becoming a saint.

In twenty years, even Ye Fan, Yin Tiande, Xia Mingxiao, and all the princes and imperial sons were still stuck in the second level of the Immortal Realm and had not yet severed their Dao, while he had already become a half-saint.

This is no longer a matter of talent. Look at these people, who isn't a genius who has shaken the world and is rarely seen in the entire history of cultivation?

The reason he could break through so quickly was because his cultivation level far exceeded his current realm. He only needed to improve his cultivation, primordial spirit, and accumulate enough foundation to break through with unstoppable momentum.

This becomes increasingly exaggerated and inhumane as the story progresses.

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

Li Yao had never been so focused on enlightenment and cultivation. He longed to quickly reach the realm of a sage and then enter the starry sky again.

Earth's resources are not to be missed, and the White Tiger Treasure Technique is related to the advancement of the Heavenly Book; he has long wanted to go there.

However, due to his low cultivation level, he was unable to travel long distances, which is why he had not taken any action.

Once one becomes a sage, with his secret of movement, his speed will even surpass that of a sage king, and traversing the starry sky will no longer be difficult.

On this day, the figure in the hall finally changed. Strands of holy power emerged from his pores, and the chaotic energy surged. His terrifying blood and qi were like a real dragon, vast and boundless.

The water has accumulated to the point of overflowing; it can't be contained anymore!

"It's time to undergo tribulation!" Li Yao stood up, stretched his body, and moved as lithely as a dragon, exuding an unimaginable aura.

"Hey!"

The blazing immortal light danced and entered the immortal gold furnace to be sealed away.

In this way, if one's essence, energy, and spirit are not complete, one will be unable to trigger a great calamity.

"The Heavenly Tribulation of Saints is a good thing. Let's see if any of them are blind enough to notice it," he muttered to himself.

If everyone behaves themselves and has no excuse to cause trouble, then so be it. But if there are any dishonest ones, they could use the Great Calamity of the Saints to cripple a royal family or even wipe out an entire clan.

After leaving the main hall, he summoned the four holy envoys for questioning, and to his surprise, the ancient races had been behaving themselves during this period.

At least that's how it appears on the surface. As for whether they've secretly attacked the human race, no one knows.

Li Yao was somewhat disappointed. Since there was no other reason, he could only go to the outer realms to break through his cultivation level.

He couldn't possibly wait until the ancient clans made mistakes before undergoing the Great Tribulation of Saints; that would be a complete waste of time.

Wouldn't it be better for him to just break through directly and continue to improve his realm with that effort?

extraterritorial.

In just over ten breaths, he arrived in the outer realm from the earth.

The place was deathly silent. Looking back, one could see a vast celestial body, with one large star right before one's eyes, exuding an awe-inspiring aura, like an ancient slumbering place of gods.

Li Yaoli was already familiar with the outside world, but this time, he actually saw something different.

In the gravitational field of the ancient Big Dipper star, he saw a small mountain standing majestically in the starry sky, exuding a chilling aura.

In an instant, Li Yao arrived in front of the small mountain. A cold metallic luster emanated from it. It was actually a thousand-meter-high iron mountain, like a meteorite, carrying a powerful sense of oppression.

"Holy Might, this is a fragment of a holy weapon!" He sensed the Daoist aura emanating from it and knew what it was.

The fragments were riddled with pits and dents, bearing the marks of swords and spears, and were also cracked, as if they had been shattered by a tremendous force.

Furthermore, there were faint bloodstains on it, which, although long dried, still exuded a powerful aura.

"At least the blood of a Saint King!" Li Yao thought with some amazement.

It's a pity that this divine iron has lost its essence over countless years; otherwise, such a massive piece of divine iron would have been a great treasure.

It should be noted that such divine iron is rare even for saint-level figures. A piece the size of a fist can be incorporated into a weapon to greatly increase its power.

The Shentie Mountain, which is 1,000 meters high, is equivalent to more than a dozen other Yuan Mountains of the same height.

Li Yao continued his exploration and saw many more fragments of weapons, all as large as mountains.

This is normal; not every sage can find suitable materials to cast artifacts.

If one cannot obtain divine materials such as Immortal Gold and the Nine Great Divine Jade Kings, then other things will be needed to compensate. Endless mountains and earth veins will be exhausted just to obtain a trace of divine minerals.

Therefore, some sacred weapons may appear small and exquisite, but they are actually forged from mountains and rivers spanning thousands of miles, and when magnified, they are vast and boundless.

Not long after, he saw the collapsed ancient gate, the abandoned warship, and the huge, decayed skeleton.

Tens of thousands of years ago, an unimaginable great war may have taken place in the outer realms. All the participants were saints, which is why this starry sky was ravaged like this.

Li Yao gazed at the countless shattered meteorites, some of which could still be pieced back together today.

There must have been many stars outside the ancient Big Dipper star field in the past, but they were shattered in the subsequent great battles.

"This is the battlefield outside the realm. If I remember correctly, the Divine Flower, one of the three rare flowers, is located here." Li Yao's heart stirred slightly.

Legend has it that there are three kinds of rare flowers in the world. Like the elixir of immortality, they are unique and there are no multiple of them. They are even more mysterious than the elixir of immortality, and few people have seen them, let alone obtained them.

The three extraordinary flowers all possess incredibly miraculous effects, truly defying the power of nature.

The first type is the renowned Demon God Flower, which contains boundless Daoist essence and is the supreme treasure of the demon race, blooming only once every fifty thousand years. Only in the instant the flower blooms can one absorb its essence and transform their physique.

The source of all the achievements of the Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing was this rare flower; otherwise, he would not have even embarked on the path of cultivation.

The Demon God Flower bloomed, creating an invincible figure across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, who almost stormed into the Immortal Realm at the wrong time.

The second type is the Dao-Merging Flower, which Ye Fan, a ruthless man obsessed with brotherhood, can become an emperor without any effort.

Of course, the so-called "eating" does not mean actually eating it, but rather that at the moment the Dao-Harmony Flower blooms, those around it can attain Dao and become Emperors!

As for the third type, it is the Divine Flower, which is the most amazing of the three rare flowers. It contains a shocking secret and can only be appreciated by ancient emperors. It represents the ultimate beauty.

Legend has it that the Divine Flower fell from the Immortal Realm and should not exist in the mortal world at all.

When this rare flower blooms, only beings of the supreme level can witness it. If an emperor or other being sees it, their primordial spirit will be transformed into a rain of light and eventually depart into the Dao.

Therefore, the Divine Flower is also an unparalleled treasure for killing. Even a quasi-emperor who is accidentally affected by it will have to consider himself unlucky and risk his death.

These three extraordinary flowers are almost the most precious treasures in the world, each one a unique and divine gem unparalleled throughout history.

Li Yao had also tried to search for it last time, but the outer realm was vast, and he did not see the outer battlefield last time.

There is also a gravitational field outside the domain of the ancient Big Dipper star, which revolves around the huge star, so its position is constantly changing.

Li Yao suppressed his thoughts of undergoing tribulation and began searching the battlefields beyond the realm.

He traversed tirelessly among the numerous corpses and fragments of weapons, his heart filled only with longing for the Divine Flower.

Finally, several days later, he found a rotten wooden box in the ruins. It was blocked by divine sense and he could not see what was inside.

At first glance, Li Yao felt that this was probably what he was looking for.

He took a deep breath, and with a creak, slowly opened the box.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, divine light appeared in the sky, dazzling and splendid, as if it were eternal.

Inside the rotten wooden box, a piece of divine energy floated quietly, its energy blocked by the box. Within the divine energy, there was a budding flower, about the size of a fist, glistening with dew, shining brightly, its beauty breathtaking.

This flower seems to possess a kind of bewitching power, making people want to entrust their minds to it, even wishing they could offer up their very soul to enhance the beauty of the bud, making them want to fall into its trap forever.

Li Yao had never seen such a beautiful flower bud before. Although it had not yet bloomed, it possessed all the splendor of the world, with its myriad colors and auspicious hues, making it irresistible.

This is still not in bloom. If it were a blooming divine flower, it would be absolutely captivating, and the consequence of forcibly staring at it would be that one's primordial spirit would turn into a rain of light.

This is the most divine flower in history; it is not only beautiful, but also deadly.

It took him immense resolve to sever his connection with the Divine Flower, close the rotten wooden box again, and dare not look at it once more.

The divine flower in the rotten wooden box is currently just a bud, enveloped by divine energy, freezing the passage of time. There's no need to worry about the consequences of it blooming.

Only the Great Emperor can appreciate the beauty of this thing and comprehend the profound laws within it.

Throughout history, the number of emperors who have witnessed the blooming of the Divine Flower can probably be counted on one hand. Even for an emperor, this is a kind of heaven-defying destiny.

Li Yao was somewhat delighted. Although he was not qualified to watch it at the moment, he would eventually become emperor, and at that time he would use this divine flower as his coronation ceremony.

"It's time to undergo the tribulation!" After putting away the Divine Flower, Li Yao left the battlefield and flew countless billions of miles into the deeper starry sky.

"boom!"

In that instant, an endless sea of ​​lightning surged forth, like a vast ocean spreading from the depths of the void, boundless and stretching as far as the eye could see.

The lightning was violent and incredibly powerful, dazzling like a sea of ​​stars crashing down and engulfing the starry sky.

Li Yao's figure vanished instantly, swallowed by the sea of ​​lightning. The entire star field was ablaze with intense divine light, all formed from lightning, dazzling to the eye.

Such a calamity is terrifying; even though it is a calamity leading to sainthood, it is still beyond imagination.

In other words, no one saw it, otherwise they would have been truly shocked. The great calamity of ordinary saints is far inferior to Li Yao's great calamity.

Vast oceans crashed down, submerging the entire starry sea and turning this place into a deathly silence.

Amidst terrifying lightning, countless planets shattered, like fireworks exploding in the night sky, creating waves in the sea of ​​lightning.

Li Yao had expected his tribulation to be very strong, but he never imagined it would be so exaggerated and terrifying that even his body was covered in bloody marks, and his bones were cracking and popping.

This is the reforging of flesh and bones. The heavenly tribulation is tempering every inch of his body, breaking his bones and then rebuilding them.

Such a calamity was far too fierce. If it were an ordinary person undergoing tribulation, they would die instantly. Even those with exceptional talent would at most survive a few breaths during the tribulation before turning into charred remains.

The most terrifying lightning tribulations in history have appeared. There are countless lightning bolts, known as the Heavenly Tribulation Light, which are said to be divine punishment. They are everywhere and cannot be described as just one.

The Immortal Golden Furnace floats and sinks in the sea of ​​thunder, receiving the baptism of lightning, and inscribing the Dao and principles within the tribulation of thunder, destined for a qualitative change today.

No one knows how much time has passed. Li Yao's bones have broken many times, and his entire body has been worn away, only to be reassembled and reforged again, like an iron blank that has been repeatedly folded and forged.

He endured the excruciating pain, floating amidst the lightning, his mind calming slightly as he comprehended the laws of lightning. Combining this with his own understanding, his progress was rapid.

This is also one of his greatest gains so far. When it comes to the laws of thunder, Heaven is definitely the best teacher, and no one can compare with it.

Li Yao studied with great eagerness, absorbing the laws within the lightning and making continuous progress.

In fact, if he wanted to, he could substitute his own will for the will of Heaven and wield most of the power of the Heavenly Tribulation.

However, he also wanted to use this opportunity to temper himself and comprehend the laws of thunder, which is why he didn't do that.

Even so, as his understanding of the laws of thunder deepened, the vast sea of ​​thunder caused him less and less harm.

Of course, there must also be the fact that his body is much stronger than before the tribulation, which is one of the reasons why the tribulation reduced the damage to him.

"Phew... Thankfully, the ancient clans of Beidou are all very well-behaved. If such a heavenly tribulation were to truly descend upon Beidou, I wonder how much territory it would destroy."

Li Yao felt somewhat fortunate at this moment. If he had truly unleashed his tribulation of becoming a saint in the Big Dipper, he didn't know how far the impact would have been.

In any case, the damage was much greater than that caused by the battle against the Blue Demon Clan.

"boom!"

Endless torrents of lightning were born from the boundless void, stretching to the horizon and engulfing this vast starry sky, like a surging tide that swept across a wide area.

If this were on the ground, tens of thousands of miles of territory would collapse in an instant, leaving nothing but utter desolation.

Li Yao's eyes burned brightly. He suddenly looked up, like two divine lamps fixed in the sea of ​​thunder, gazing into the depths of the starry sky.

There was the aura of an ancient emperor permeating the area, and in addition, there was another powerful aura, though it was impossible to discern.

"boom!"

Dark light shot into the sky, engulfing the starry sky. The icy, bone-chilling Taiyin Divine Lightning descended, more powerful than any calamity before. It filled the entire starry sky, submerging countless stars before exploding, as fragile as a small ice ball.

This was a terrifying tribulation, a scene that would fill all those who had attained sainthood with fear and unease.

Heaven was enraged. It would not allow the person before it to undergo tribulation; otherwise, why would it have sent down such a terrifying lightning tribulation?

This is something that Heaven and Earth cannot tolerate. They will do everything in their power, even exceeding the limits of their current realm, to destroy the one undergoing tribulation.

The terrifying Taiyin Divine Thunder, overflowing with dark light, exuded a chilling cold that froze the soul. Li Yao felt as if he had been completely frozen, and then he shattered.

Moreover, even the Immortal Gold Furnace suffered its greatest damage ever, with cracks appearing on its body, something that had never happened before.

"Buzz!"

From the shattered body, chains of divine order shot out, binding all the fragments and broken bones, and beginning to reassemble...

The "Zhe" secret technique unfolded, and he began to rapidly recover himself. Li Yao didn't even need to activate it much; almost instinctively, the "Zhe" secret technique activated on its own.

Having studied the secret of the character "者" for so long, he had almost mastered it into a passive skill. If the Celestial Venerable of Longevity knew about it, he would probably want to tie him up and study him carefully.

Li Yao recovered to his peak condition. Even though the Taiyin Divine Lightning was still causing him intense pain, he endured it, refining the Immortal Gold Furnace and infusing it with phoenix and dragon patterns before subjecting it to the Heavenly Tribulation.

This furnace is extraordinary, crafted from five sacred artifacts exclusive to the Great Emperors. It was originally a rough, unrefined piece, but now that it has been reforged, its power is even more terrifying.

The piece of Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold given to me by Jiang Taixu is now being rapidly fused with the Immortal Gold Furnace by the power of thunder and fire, undergoing tempering and becoming one with it.

"boom!"

The Taiyin Divine Thunder ended, but before Li Yao could even breathe a sigh of relief, ten thousand golden rays burst forth from the depths of the starry sky, dazzlingly bright, like a great sun illuminating this universe, or like thousands of planets burning, blindingly so.

The Sun God's Thunder arrived, its majestic power striking Li Yao once again. Even with his robust physique, he was shattered inch by inch, bone fragments flying everywhere, blood splattering, a truly miserable sight.

At the same time, the Immortal Gold Furnace also cracked and almost shattered completely. Five-colored immortal light burst out from the cracks, and it was about to collapse in all directions at any moment.

The shattered body reassembled, blood, broken bones, and flesh reformed, and the latter secret technique operated spontaneously, instantly healing the terrifying injuries.

His body, hammered by divine lightning, was like a divine weapon forged through countless trials, growing stronger with each strike, becoming as indestructible as a sacred artifact.

The Immortal Gold Furnace is also constantly being reforged, with phoenix and dragon patterns being continuously forged into it and fused together, presenting the auspicious power of dragons and phoenixes.

This was a difficult ordeal, and even Li Yao could no longer pass through it with ease. A slight misstep could lead to his death.

Of course, every disadvantage has its advantages. First, his body became stronger and stronger, and his primordial spirit was tempered by lightning, becoming eternal and immortal.

It should be noted that his breakthrough now does not depend on his cultivation level; as long as his cultivation and primordial spirit reach a certain level, it will be a natural progression.

Therefore, the stronger one's primordial spirit, the greater the improvement in one's realm.

Li Yao also paid no attention to cultivation. He frantically absorbed lightning into his body, refined it, and then extracted his Dao power.

Soon, the Sun God Thunder disappeared, having brought him endless pain and boundless benefits, before it withdrew from the scene.

"boom!"

Five-colored divine light descended. Li Yao was extremely familiar with this divine lightning; it was none other than the Five Elements Divine Lightning, which was inexhaustible and incomparably powerful.

It shattered several more times, including the Immortal Gold Furnace, each time nearly falling apart.

Even such a difficult environment could not stop Li Yao; he finally pulled through. However, the Immortal Gold Furnace malfunctioned and shattered...

Li Yao stared in disbelief at the shattered Immortal Gold Furnace. The five types of Immortal Gold had long since fused together due to the tribulation lightning, floating in the void of the universe, surrounding him at the center, and had lost their luster.

"Is this... a crucial step towards the birth of a deity?" He thought of the records in the ancient books.

All things in heaven and earth are in the process of cultivation; humans are in the struggle to cross the river, and weapons are no different.

For weapons, the sacred weapon is also a hurdle. To achieve the ultimate sublimation and undergo a qualitative change, it must first die once and then be born as a god!

This is a process of self-destruction and regeneration. Having endured numerous calamities, the Immortal Gold Furnace has long since developed a hazy consciousness, and it too is seeking survival.

Having realized this, Li Yao's worries subsided, and he focused solely on overcoming the tribulation, rebuilding himself after the shattering...

Blood and bone flew everywhere, sticking to the fragments of the Immortal Gold Furnace. The two resonated with each other, constantly vibrating together, and at the same time, they became more spiritual.

The furnace plates trembled incessantly, as if unwilling to accept defeat, roaring and clanging as they resisted the heavenly tribulation!
Lu and Li Yao are both enduring terrifying heavenly tribulations, growing stronger together, striving to overcome the insurmountable barrier and leap over the dragon gate!
