After millions of years in the library, I became an Immortal Emperor.

"boom--"

A bolt of jet-black lightning descended upon this land, causing everyone's hearts to tighten the moment it appeared, and their seas of souls instantly fell silent.

This is a blow that could truly annihilate all living beings on earth.

However, the figure only slightly raised his head, and the space in front of him was constantly being torn apart and reassembled, and the bolt of lightning finally fell into his hand.

It vanished like a spark, without leaving a ripple.

He looked at the group of people beside the peach grove and nodded slightly.

"this……"

Ye Hongyu, Liu De, and the others stared wide-eyed, unable to recover for a long time, while Qin Ge, Qin Ming, and the others watched the scene quietly.

Before that, no matter what happened, they wouldn't be too surprised.

Because it has always been this way.

"The tribulation of lightning has passed; next comes the tribulation of refining the heart."

Lin Fan looked at Gu Yuan and said, Gu Yuan opened his eyes, and a vast world of water and wood appeared before him. The moment he stood up, it was as if the world had been created.

Before everyone's eyes appeared a world composed entirely of the essence of water and the essence of wood, and within it, a giant rose upright from the earth.

This is the Nine-Lives God.

"Thank you, sir. Gu Yuan can now overcome the next mental tribulation on his own."

Gu Yuan bowed slightly to Lin Fan and then spoke.

Although the tribulation has not yet passed, his body has already undergone a transformation, reaching the Sendai level, and he has crossed into another dimension of life.

Within this dimension of life, he had already discerned that the being before him was not the true form, but merely an avatar of divine thought.

This, however, made him even more alarmed.

With just a single divine thought avatar, it could easily annihilate the world-destroying thunder; with a slight wave of its hand, it could cause spatial rifts, and even the passage of time had to retreat.

Just how powerful has he become?

"Um."

Lin Fan nodded, and with just one word, Gu Yuan's previously agitated heart calmed down completely, and he began to patiently wait for the arrival of the tribulation.

The tribulations of Sendai vary from person to person, but most of them are tribulations that combine the destruction of the world with the destruction of the heart. After passing through these two tribulations, one will reach the complete Sendai realm.

The manifestation of the cataclysmic tribulation is varied, with lightning being the most common form. The tribulation of the mind and soul is a test of the spirit and soul, and its descent is equally unpredictable.

Logically speaking, outsiders cannot help with the Tribulation of Extinction of the Heart; one must overcome it alone. However, the words of the person in front of him indicate that he can also help with the Tribulation of Extinction of the Heart.

But he also has his own pride. He is a god who defied the heavens and attained enlightenment. He has traversed the Three Thousand Worlds and Seas for 100,000 years. He also has the ability to overcome heavenly tribulations.

"Buzz!"

An invisible force descended, and everyone except Lin Fan felt that the entire world instantly lost its color, as if they had been isolated from the world.

Gu Yuan's body trembled, and countless emotions surged across his face, revealing a variety of struggles.

Calamity has arrived.

Lin Fan looked at him quietly, then suddenly raised his head at a certain moment.

Beyond the Nine Lives Sea, the Lord of Tai Xuan descended, traversing a vast galaxy in a single step, like an ancient deity gazing upon the Nine Lives Sea before him.

Flowers fall into the sea, water and trees condense in the sky—this is an unusual phenomenon signifying advancement to the Immortal Platform.

"Was he the first person in history to enter the Sendai realm through the path of merging the Great Dao?"

He said calmly that he was about to enter the Nine Lives Sea, but just as he was about to take that step, a gaze suddenly fell on him.

It was an undisguised, indifferent gaze.

"Nine-Lives God?"

He frowned, then smiled faintly.

"You haven't fully overcome the Sendai Tribulation yet, so you're not a true Sendai Realm cultivator. If I'm not mistaken, you should still be undergoing the Annihilation Tribulation right now."

"Can you even spare the energy to resist me?"

He said that with one step, he directly stepped into the Nine Lives Sea. In the eyes of countless beings in the Nine Lives Sea, he was a shadow covering the starry sky, forcibly entering this starry sky.

"Yeah?"

Just then, a voice rang in the ears of the Lord of Tai Xuan, and then a terrifying aura locked onto him, causing him to stop abruptly from taking the step he was about to take.

"Buzz—"

This was the sound of a sword, resounding throughout the entire Nine Lives Sea. A terrifying sword light carrying the power to obliterate time swept across the starry sky, instantly traversing ten thousand star seas.

It slashed directly at the enormous shadow that was about to enter the Nine Lives Sea.

The Lord of Tai Xuan focused his mind, clenched his fist, and gathered endless star power, creating a dark void in the surrounding starry sky, before meeting the sword strike head-on.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, several world seas around were shaken, and an invisible ripple swept across hundreds of millions of miles. In the shocked gazes of countless people, the enormous figure, seemingly as vast as the heavens and the abyss, crashed down.

A severed arm flew across billions of miles, shattering countless stars.

Blood drifted in all directions, each drop as heavy as Mount Tai, capable of killing a Primordial God Venerable with a single drop. This was the blood of a giant from the Sendai realm.

"How is that possible..."

This was the voice of the Lord of Tai Xuan. He grabbed the severed arm, reattached it, and looked towards the direction of the Nine Lives Sea, his face filled with shock.

But in response, he heard the cry of a sword.

His expression faltered, and he turned and left.

The sword light cleaved through the Nine Lives Sea, severing the endless starry sky, and carrying the power of the three great Daos of space, time, and destiny, directly struck the Lord of Tai Xuan.

A scream echoed across several world seas, and countless beings looked up to see a colossal figure clutching a severed arm as it fled in disarray through the starry sky.

A mere wisp of aura emanating from that figure could cause a starry sea to collapse and countless lives to perish, yet this being still wore a look of terror on its face.

He didn't even dare to look back, fearing another sword strike would come his way. He hadn't expected that the "Nine Lives God" wouldn't give him a chance to speak and would immediately unleash a killing technique.

Shouldn't he be undergoing the tribulation of annihilation of his mind?

How could you possibly attack him at this time?

He is at the fifth level of the Sendai Realm, while the Nine Lives God Venerable has only just entered the Sendai Realm. How can he be so powerful? Is this what is meant by a God Venerable who defies the heavens and attains enlightenment?

Wangyue Ancient Land!

The Lord of Gazing at the Moon closed his eyes, but a vertical eye opened on his forehead. This vertical eye reflected the scene of the Lord of Tai Xuan fleeing in panic, and also reflected that terrifying sword strike.

for a long time

A faint hint of blood seeped from his vertical eye; he withdrew his vertical eye and opened his eyes.

"What a terrifying sword strike!"

He focused his mind and said that he had only glanced at it from a great distance, yet that sword strike was able to cross the distance of time and space and even injure him.

"The Nine Lives God, or more accurately, the Lord of Nine Lives, is the most heaven-defying figure in countless eras of the Sendai.

"A first-level Sendai Realm cultivator defeats a fifth-level Sendai Realm cultivator to become the Lord of the Tai Xuan Realm."

He spoke, remained silent for a long time, and finally stepped out of his seclusion. The next moment, a bright moon rose from the ancient land of Wangyue, and the entire ancient land of Wangyue instantly boiled over.

This ancient ancestor, who had been in seclusion for countless years, has awakened.
