This feeling is quite similar to that of a Dou Sheng. Without the Supreme Sea, one can still improve one's cultivation level like a Supreme, and even undergo bloodline transformation, eventually becoming a flawed version of a Di Supreme.

Zhang Yuan could clearly feel himself becoming more and more powerful, and the Supreme Sea was becoming omnipresent in his body, in every inch of his skin and in every cell.

From unique to ubiquitous.

.

This is the Supreme Being of the Earth!

"boom!"

Three days later, Zhang Yuan's body began to reform.

His eyes remained black, with flames burning in his left eye and thunder raging in his right.

It seemed as if an endless ocean was surging within him, resounding throughout the entire Taixu Realm, accompanied by an indescribable spiritual pressure spreading out, causing the spiritual energy of the entire world to resonate.

The water of the Luo River, drawn in through the gap in the Void Realm, was stirred by this powerful spiritual pressure and transformed into a mist of spiritual energy that quickly filled the Void Realm, making everyone who smelled it feel refreshed.

The Eight Ancestral Glazed Pagoda above Zhang Yuan's head turned upside down, like a funnel swallowing the spiritual energy flowing back in, transforming into an energy vortex.

The reconstructed drawing by Zhang Yuan began to radiate a brilliance even more dazzling than its original form. Looking at it directly was like seeing an ancient dragon-phoenix awakening, or a monarch of billions of flames, as if the thunder of the void was sweeping across the world, and the power of space was in his hands.

This does not seem to be a physical body, but rather a condensation of many rules, capable of transforming into countless rules. Its surface radiates a dazzling spiritual light, carrying various types of sharpness.

Beneath Zhang Yuan's skin, patterns featuring both dragon and phoenix elements emerged, making Zi Yan and Feng Qing'er exclaim that they couldn't stand it.

Zhang Yuan could fully sense just how terrifying the power contained within this physical body was, far greater than when he used the Dragon Phoenix Thunder Emperor Flame.

At that time, he forcibly spread the power of the Supreme Sea throughout his body using the Dragon Phoenix Thunder Emperor Flame, which also enhanced his spiritual power and spirituality. In addition, his soul power was at the Earth Supreme level, so he was comparable to a lower Earth Supreme.

But now, the power of the Earthly Sovereign can be displayed with every move. There is no need to activate any spiritual power or strength. With just a casual slap, a great wave can be stirred up in the world.

If he were in a lower plane now, a single blow would be enough to shatter the continent into pieces, and space would be nothing more than a plaything in his hands.

"This is the power of the Earthly Sovereign!" Zhang Yuan was very satisfied with his power.

Looking at his many women, as well as the Eight Ancient Masters, Xiao Xuan, Gu Yuanzhu, Kun, and others, they all felt a deep sense of awe.

Originally, Zhang Yuan needed to use the Dragon Phoenix Thunder Emperor Flame to enhance his aura so that they would feel as if they were seeing an existence that transcended heaven and earth.

However, Zhang Yuan simply sat there quietly, and just by looking at his physical body, they could feel a sense of transcendence over the lower planes of the world and integration into the vast universe.

Ants look up at the sky, but cannot see the true spirit.

"Did Brother Yuan succeed?" Xun'er asked with a face full of surprise.

She is now a seventh-rank supreme being, and the oppressive feeling that makes her feel suffocated is even stronger than when she faced the Dragon Phoenix Thunder Emperor Yan.

“He’s already halfway there,” Qing Yanjing and Lin Xueyao said at the same time, both with smiles on their faces.

At this point, Zhang Yuan indeed possessed the true power of a Supreme Being, capable of fighting against Lower Earthly Sovereigns. In fact, Zhang Yuan's strength surpassed that of most Lower Earthly Sovereigns, but he was not yet a Supreme Being in the strict sense.

"Why is it only half successful?"

In the lower realm, the Lord of Darkness, Bo Qingqing, looked at Ying Huanhuan, who had answered her, and many others around her did the same.

Ying Huanhuan stared at Zhang Yuan with her eyes wide open, her voice clear and melodious: "To advance to the Supreme Realm of a lower-level Dou Di, one needs to obtain power bestowed by the spirit of the plane."

“Cultivating in the vast world involves constantly absorbing spiritual energy. It is like walking the path to heaven, fighting against fate, and requires going through countless trials.”

“Unqualified individuals who defy fate will perish for various reasons. Even a Celestial Supreme with Immortal Rank will only live for ten thousand years, which is less than the lifespan of some beings from lower planes.”

"And to advance to the Earthly Sovereign realm, there is a threshold that blocks countless geniuses from reaching the pinnacle of the Thousand Worlds: the Spiritual Tribulation!"

A spiritual tribulation?!

The crowd was puzzled but impressed.

Ying Huanhuan nodded slightly: "The Earthly Sovereign is too powerful, an existence that transcends heaven and earth. Every time it is born, it will inevitably arouse the jealousy of the heavens and be a test of the will of the great world, thus bringing down calamities."

"This kind of calamity is called the Supreme Spiritual Calamity. Throughout history, it has stopped countless geniuses who tried to reach the level of Earthly Supreme, allowing their spiritual energy to return to the world."

"Many supreme experts stop at the ninth rank because they fear the spiritual tribulation."

"The spiritual tribulation is mainly aimed at the supreme Dharma body."

Zhang Yuan had already sensed the energy that had appeared in the world.

The Supreme Sea shattered, and the physical body was reshaped by spiritual power, while the spiritual tribulation was aimed at the Supreme Dharma Body.

The true supreme being, whose supreme Dharma body is no longer a Dharma body, but a more powerful supreme Dharma form.

Only the supreme Dharma body that has undergone spiritual tribulation will be recognized by the Heavenly Emperor, transform into the supreme Dharma form, and be able to communicate with heaven and earth at a deeper level, possessing the supreme power of words becoming law.

However, Zhang Yuan sensed that he could isolate himself from the spiritual tribulation through the Void Realm, and even without undergoing the test, he could still transform his Supreme Dharma Body into a Supreme Dharma Image, or rather, advance to a higher level.

"Thunder God's Dharma Body, Thunder God's Dharma Form."

"Is Thor's level too high, and Heaven and Earth deem him unworthy to be tested?"

Zhang Yuan found it both funny and amazing.

Even when facing beings at the late stage of the Heavenly Sovereign Saint Rank, the will of the Great Thousand Worlds remained aloof, strictly selecting those qualified to mobilize the power of the world and preventing them from reaching the Dominator Realm.

They wouldn't even grant him the Supreme Spiritual Tribulation; they were just hoping he would quickly improve his cultivation.

"You won't give it to me, but I want it."

"Spiritual tribulation, come forth."

Chapter 292 A Special Tribulation Shocks Everyone! Qing Yanjing: This is clearly...

give benefits

Zhang Yuan deliberately released his energy, allowing the spiritual tribulation of heaven and earth to descend.

"boom!"

A deep, rumbling sound echoed above the Luohe Waterfall, mysterious and chaotic, as if the heavens and earth were in fury, causing the entire Taixu Realm to darken, and the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to boil like oil in a hot pan.

Zhang Yuan looked up at the sky and saw the space beginning to distort. He noticed that the spiritual water in the Luo River had been drawn out and transformed into a black thunderbolt, with lightning flashing within it. Even ordinary ninth-grade supreme beings would tremble with fear upon seeing it.

But for Zhang Yuan, this was nothing more than a massive amount of energy that he could devour.

"The spiritual tribulation mainly targets the supreme dharma body. If the dharma body is destroyed, the person will also be greatly affected, or even perish. Outsiders must not help, otherwise it will only make the spiritual tribulation stronger, or even turn into a heavenly tribulation."

Zhang Yuan's voice echoed within the Void Realm, serving as an explanation to everyone.

He didn't say much, but used both hands to mobilize the power of the Luo River, which was tens of thousands of feet deep.

At this moment, his physical body had undergone a qualitative change to the Earthly Supreme level. The Supreme Sea had been integrated into every inch of his flesh and cells, and could be said to be omnipresent. In an instant, it swallowed the ten-thousand-foot-deep Luo River water.

This level of efficiency and capability is something he couldn't achieve even with the help of the Dragon Phoenix Thunder Emperor Flame, demonstrating just how powerful the Earthly Supreme truly is—a qualitative change is a quantitative one.

Feeling the vast spiritual power within his body that defied description, Zhang Yuan began to understand why the Earthly Sovereign could suppress and kill most Sovereigns simply by using spiritual pressure.

Absolute suppression; no means can bridge this insurmountable gap.

Rumble!

As Zhang Yuan frantically drew spiritual energy directly from the Luo River, the spiritual clouds high above, compressed to a certain limit, became increasingly intense, with colorful lightning dancing within them.

All things were silent, submitting to the might of Heaven.

"Thunder is not qualified to test Thor."

Zhang Yuan easily formed a hand seal, and a human-headed, snake-bodied dharma body nearly ten thousand feet tall immediately appeared behind him.

The terrifying pressure emanating from it not only rivaled the spiritual tribulation lightning but also seemed to press back against it.

"How can he be so strong!?" Lin Xueyao looked surprised.

She had observed how her brother-in-law, Lin Qingtan's biological father, overcame his spiritual tribulation.

That was a prodigy from a branch of the Black Heaven Ancient Clan. His strength and foundation were beyond question, but he still used every trick in the book to overcome the tribulation, facing a near-death experience.

Unlike Zhang Yuan, whose Supreme Dharma Body appeared and the spiritual tribulation retreated first, who was testing whom?

boom! boom! boom!

Thick, layered clouds gathered, and the colorful lightning began to reveal its magnificence.

The deep rumble of thunder echoed throughout the heavens and earth, bringing a sense of oppression that made everyone's hearts tremble. Even powerful figures like Gu Yuan and Xiao Xuan, who were already at the Ninth Grade Supreme Realm, had extremely solemn expressions at this moment.

If it were them who were to resist this spiritual tribulation, it would be extremely difficult, and this is only the beginning.

Those colorful ramparts were all compressed from the spiritual energy of the vast world, each possessing astonishing power, which even a true lower-level Earthly Sovereign would not dare to underestimate.

"Boom!"

After a quarter of an hour of preparation, the space around the spirit cloud was torn apart, and a dazzling bolt of lightning struck down in an instant, as if the heavens and earth were ripped apart at that moment.

This dazzling bolt of lightning, only a few thousand feet in size, now resembled a colorful thunder dragon, with its horns and claws gleaming as it roared towards the Thunder God's avatar, shattering space and suppressing heaven and earth. It struck down upon the Thunder God's avatar without any hesitation.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuan remained calm. He controlled the Thunder God's Dharma Body to fly out, opening its mouth to devour the colorful lightning, which emitted dazzling and colorful light.

The thunder dragon was swallowed whole by the Thunder God's Dharma Body. Its powerful pressure shook the still immature Thirty-Six Heavens, and beings such as the Heavenly Tomb and the Bodhi Ancient Tree began to be bathed in the scattered thunder power.

A full quarter of an hour later, the first bolt of colorful lightning finally disappeared, and the Thunder God's Dharma Body, which had been clashing with it, was not only unharmed, but its aura seemed to have become even more terrifying.

The onlookers: "."

"A monster! This is a monster!" Lin Xueyao exclaimed. "This is not how you undergo a spiritual tribulation!"

"As expected of my husband." Qing Yanjing's face lit up with a bright smile, and a look of relief flashed in her eyes.

She is now a Ninth-Rank Supreme, but she is still not far from transcending the tribulation to become an Earthly Supreme. However, after arriving in the Great Thousand World, the inheritance in her memories is fully activated.

She already knew her identity; she was indeed a member of the Futu Ancient Clan, and a direct descendant of the Qingmai Clan Chief. Her parents had almost perished because of her, so they devised a plan to send her to the mortal realm to undergo tribulation.

After experiencing calamities, she was able to return to the ancient Futu clan to be reborn and inherit an extremely powerful and rare eight divine veins and eight purple moons within the ancient clan.

However, meeting Zhang Yuan changed the course of her life. Not only did she undergo eight tribulations in the cycle of reincarnation, but she was able to successfully overcome this final tribulation and return to the Floating Pagoda Clan in her true form.

If successful, a new lineage will be born within her, combining with the eight divine lineages within the Ancient Buddha Clan to create the unparalleled Nine Divine Lineages, gaining the recognition of the Endless Light Body—the very essence of a ruler.

When she met Zhang Yuan, he was only a Great Dou Master, which shows how mysterious he was, at least above her, the reincarnation of the Holy Maiden of the Ancient Futu Clan.

However, she was still afraid that the ancient Futu clan would cause trouble for Zhang Yuan after they found out about the situation, since the ancient clans had some outdated systems.

But now Zhang Yuan's strong presence has put her at ease, and she can confidently entrust everything to him.

"Even if I set up a spirit array in advance, it wouldn't be this strong," Qing Yanjing thought to himself.

"This is the first spiritual tribulation, and also the weakest, but it's just too unreasonable!" Lin Xueyao couldn't remain calm.
