Journey to the West: The Eighty-One Tribulations of Being Hairless

The cultivation of sentient beings in the Three Realms is a struggle against fate and a form of resource plunder from heaven and earth!

Every life form is inherently indebted to the karmic forces of heaven and earth, let alone a life form like a cultivator, which is extremely destructive to resources and energy!

Before the rules of heaven and earth are perfected, cultivators can only wait for their karma to accumulate to a certain level, and then be punished in one go when a great calamity arrives or when their own tribulation comes.

If you pass through this stage, you can continue your cultivation; if you fail, you will die and your spiritual path will perish.

The Twelve Golden Immortals of that time followed the same principle. Apart from being involved in worldly calamities, the main reason was that they owed too much karma to heaven and earth, accumulated too much negative karma, and did not cultivate merit in their daily lives!

One can only enter the mortal world to undergo tribulations after the great calamity arrives; otherwise, one's cultivation will be twice as difficult and half as effective, or even make no progress at all!

And after the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods ended!

Then came the catastrophe of heaven and earth!

To become an Earth Immortal, one must undergo the Three Calamities!

Wind, thunder, and fire!

After overcoming the three calamities, one becomes a true immortal or celestial immortal, but there are nine difficulties and the five signs of decay for celestial beings.

After overcoming nine tribulations, he became an immortal golden immortal!

Golden Immortals must be wary of worldly tribulations and karmic consequences, and maintain their original intentions in order to advance further and achieve the Taiyi Dao!

The Way of Taiyi is the Way of the Heart; one should seek the Way of the Heart!

Finally, the Great Luo Golden Immortal is also the last kind of calamity in the world, the Great Luo Heavenly Tribulation. One who survives the Great Luo Heavenly Tribulation becomes a Great Luo Golden Immortal. If the immeasurable calamity does not come, there will be no more calamities, and one can roam freely in the world!

Therefore, the Great Golden Immortal is the true carefree and unrestrained immortal!

Of course, these calamities are for ordinary people. If one has accumulated great merit, these calamities are nothing to worry about. If you have accumulated millions of merits...

Even for a Great Luo Golden Immortal, the Great Luo Heavenly Tribulation is only symbolically dealt with by two bolts of heavenly lightning before they pass!

However, if someone has deep karma, under the bombardment of eighty-one Great Luo Purple Heavenly Thunders, or even Chaos Heavenly Thunders, they would probably only be able to reincarnate and start cultivating again!

Click!

Thunder roared across the heavens and earth, at the Great Luo Heaven, the Three Altars Sea Assembly Divine Palace!

The Great Heavenly Tribulation!

At this moment, a dense purple cloud gathered, attracting the attention of countless immortals and gods. Nezha sat cross-legged in the void below the cloud, his eyes closed, and summoned his three-headed, six-armed golden body!

Be on high alert for the purple clouds in the sky!

Nezha doesn't have much merit either. He originally had only about two million merits, but after trading one million with Zhou Yi, he now only has a little over one million merits left!

Even if someone has accumulated one million merits, it's not easy for them to be spared by the heavens and earth.

The eighty-one Great Luo Heavenly Tribulations might not be necessary, but the forty-nine Great Luo Heavenly Tribulations would likely be just as good.

"Hiss..."

"How is that possible? How did Nezha achieve the body of a primordial demon god?"

At this moment, a sharp-eyed immortal noticed something different about Nezha, who was sitting cross-legged in the void!

Yes, a body of an innate demon god!

However, just as Nuwa had predicted, he was given the body of an innate demon god, but unfortunately it was not the body of a superior innate demon god that Nezha originally possessed!

It can only be considered as the body of a lower-level innate demon god!

But it's already much better than a naturally occurring spiritual body!

After gaining innate physical strength, Nezha left Nuwa Heaven without stopping and came to his own residence in Daluo Heaven to prepare for a breakthrough in seclusion!

As for why he didn't go into seclusion in Nuwa's Heaven!

Although Nuwa's Heaven has merged into the prehistoric world, its Heavenly Dao is governed by Nuwa and is completely different from the Heavenly Dao of the prehistoric world!

The Great Luo Dao is the foundation for forging Hunyuan.

Of course, the higher the level of the world, the more powerful the fundamental Dao is, and the more solid the foundation for achieving the Great Luo realm is.

Although Nuwa Heaven is also a Great Thousand World, it is only a barely acceptable Great Thousand World, barely reaching the level of a low-grade Great Thousand World.

It can't compare to the Pangu Primordial Universe, which is a half-step Great Dao Heavenly Domain!

"You didn't know that?"

"Oh? There's a theory about that?"

"Of course, I heard that the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas recently sought out the True Lord of Heaven to refine a batch of Innate Primordial Embryo Pills. The extraordinary phenomenon that occurred when the pills were completed was truly earth-shattering!"

It's absolutely an unparalleled divine pill in the Three Realms!

It seems that the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas must have achieved his Innate Demon God Body thanks to this Innate Primordial Embryo Pill!

"That can't be right!"

As the Celestial Lord himself said, the Primordial Embryo Pill can only create a primordial body. It has some effect on Golden Immortal cultivators who have not yet reached the Taiyi level!

If one could truly achieve the body of a primordial demon god...

Even a celestial being would dream of this!

A body born of a demon god!

Even if they are not true innate demon gods, they do not have the innate divine power bestowed by heaven and earth, nor the innate status and fortune bestowed by heaven and earth!

However, physical constitution itself represents a kind of foundation, a kind of origin!

Luck and such can be acquired through spreading the word, establishing a sect, and conquering the world. One can also attain a higher rank by striving for positions such as True Lord!

But one's constitution is something one is born with!

Although it is said that the three flowers of the Great Luo Golden Immortal determine the potential for achievement.

But who can say for sure? If one achieves the body of an innate demon god and does not seek to attain the Dao of Hunyuan, one might have a greater chance of severing the three corpses!

"That's indeed what the Celestial Lord said, but..."

The Great God of the Three Altars and Seas visited the Nuwa Palace to pay homage to the Goddess Nuwa before undergoing his tribulation...

"That makes sense now. Nuwa, the goddess who cultivates the Great Dao of Creation, should have had no difficulty helping the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas achieve the body of a Primordial Demon God!"

"If you can create three thousand innate human beings, then it shouldn't be difficult for Your Majesty to advance your cultivation further!"

"However, we really need to be on good terms with this Celestial Lord!"

He can now refine ninth-tier divine pills; who knows, he might be able to refine Dao pills someday.

"Indeed, His Majesty only bestowed upon such a high-ranking talent as the Celestial Master Si Tian, ​​who is also of the Pangu clan, the title of Fifth-Rank Celestial Official. It is indeed a bit stingy!"

"Who can argue with that? The True Lord's rank and status are right there. If it were me, I would at least bestow upon him the title of a third-rank Immortal Minister!"

In the Great Luo Heaven, the surrounding Great Luo Golden Immortals were watching Nezha undergo the Great Luo Heavenly Tribulation, their divine thoughts exchanging frantically.

......

Meanwhile, in the Dou Niu Palace, Haotian's expression was slightly somber, as if he were pondering something.

"Senior brother, the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas has returned to the tutelage of the Sage Nuwa and has even cultivated the innate demon god body. Could this be due to the presence of the Celestial Lord?"

The surrounding immortals thought the same way, and Yaochi was no exception.

Upon hearing this, Haotian shook his head, "The possibility is not very high, but it cannot be ruled out!"

If it really is because of the Celestial Lord.

"Then this is definitely not a divine pill anymore, it's definitely a Dao pill..."

When the words "Dao Dan" were mentioned, Haotian's eyes lit up, because the Nine-Turn Golden Pill that enabled mortals to become Great Luo Golden Immortals was the Dao Dan, a tenth-order Dao Dan!

Laozi was extremely stingy with this elixir!

"That's unlikely. This kid is only at the Celestial Immortal level. For a Celestial Immortal to refine Dao Pills is just too abnormal!"

"Alright, we'll find Nezha and ask him after he finishes his Great Luo Heavenly Tribulation," Haotian said, waving his hand.

And at this moment...

On the Moon Star, in the Moon Palace, a goddess in a crystal gown wore a slight smile...

"Master, this is..." Chang'e was puzzled when she saw the joy on her master's face. Over the years, her master had always had a cold and indifferent expression!

"Master's smile is so beautiful!"

Chang'e sighed inwardly.
