Five hundred years of stacked Q, this one Q, unique and unparalleled throughout eternity!

The burly man with the bushy beard felt his five vital energies tremble, and the three flowers on his head were about to fall off. His Golden Immortal cultivation was declining at a visible speed.

He could even clearly sense that the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation was incomplete, but even so, its terrifying power still filled him with fear.

"She's trying to use this opportunity to trap me here completely!"

With this thought in mind, the burly man with the bushy beard no longer hesitated and took out a black statue that looked eerie and as if it were pieced together from countless bizarre limbs.

He slashed his palm, and blood dripped onto the black statue. The sinister and malevolent aura of the burly, bearded man Zhou Shui surged wildly.

Behind him, the numerous ferocious divine forms swept by the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation began to fight each other, and a powerful will quietly descended upon the bearded giant.

The Great Black Heaven Secret Manual is a renowned cultivation technique in the Xuanhuang Great World. Its founder was an exceptionally talented Eight Tribulation Golden Immortal who lived hundreds of thousands of years ago.

This self-proclaimed Golden Immortal, who called himself Mahakala, claimed to have comprehended the Ninth Tribulation and left behind the top-level method, the "Mahakala Secret Manual," claiming that if someone mastered it, they could transcend life and death and pass the Ninth Tribulation!

However, for hundreds of thousands of years, no one has been able to successfully comprehend the transmission of the Mahakala Secret Codex.

Before ascending to the Golden Immortal realm, the bearded giant unexpectedly discovered this black statue and comprehended the Mahakala Dharma Form from it.

The true core inheritance of this top-level technique lies in letting numerous fierce gods fight each other and cultivating the strongest Great Black Heaven Dharma Form through the method of raising Gu poison.

Those ferocious and vicious gods fought each other continuously. Although they were all Dharma forms and soul bodies, the brutality they displayed inspired fear. The aura of the burly man with the bushy beard also continued to rise at this moment.

Yin Changyu, who was in charge of the formation, finally sensed something was wrong, but this incomplete Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation was already at its limit. Even when pushed to its limit, those ferocious divine forms were still devouring and changing.

Finally, a bizarre Dharma form with a dragon's head, human body, scales and wings, clawed beast arms on its limbs, and a tail resembling a giant snake completely manifested in the formation.

Its existence is like a bizarre entity created by dismantling and reassembling those dozens of ferocious gods and beasts.

It was merely standing within the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, yet the incomplete formation felt a tremor; its existence far exceeded the limits that the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation could contain.

"An Eighth Tribulation Golden Immortal!" Deep shock appeared in Yin Changyu's eyes.

With a savage, scarlet aura flashing in his eyes, the burly man with the thick beard, riding his Dharma form, looked at Yin Changyu in the center of the formation and said:

“Senior Sister Yin, I originally intended to take this step after advancing to the Eighth Tribulation Golden Immortal, in order to try to overcome the Ninth Tribulation, but I did not expect that you would force me to use this move ahead of time.”

You have every reason to be proud that you have fallen before my Great Black Heaven Dharma Form.

I will live on, carrying your secret and the ten thousand years of lifespan I gained from killing that anomaly named Luo Tian, ​​and become the unparalleled Nine Tribulations Golden Immortal!

As soon as the words fell, it was as if a towering demon god stepped into the seed of the array world, and a black sun stretched across the sky.

A tide of malice and depravity surged forth, tearing apart the entire Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation.

Above the great formation, the Hunyuan Golden Cauldron, which was just a broken phantom, was teetering on the verge of collapse, and the formation, which was powerful enough to knock Golden Immortals down to the mortal world, quickly dissipated.

The entire formation shattered like a mirror, and a huge phantom of a demon god appeared outside Yunlai Peak.

It seemed as if it was just standing still, yet its body towered above the heavens and earth of Jade Emperor Mountain Grotto. If it were to manifest in reality, it would seem capable of bursting this entire world.

Inside the cave, the burly man with a bushy beard, wielding unimaginable power of a Nine Tribulation Golden Immortal, let out a maniacal laugh and swung his right fist at Yin Changyu, whose soul had not yet returned to its place amidst the shattered array.

"go to hell!"

"Oh!"

A clear shattering sound rang out, and the burly man's ferocious grin instantly turned into astonishment.

Before he knew it, Luo Tian, ​​who had stood up from the jade table, had walked up to him and casually pointed a finger at his outstretched right hand.

The physical body of a fourth-level Golden Immortal was like a bubble under that nonchalant finger.

All the tricks of possession, blood rebirth, substitution talismans, and rebirth talismans were useless. All the countless magical treasures and supernatural powers he had used to save his life could not prevent the arrival of true death.

In a daze, the burly man with the bushy beard seemed to sense the terrifying power that guided the immortals toward death when facing calamity.

The two seem to originate from the same source, and no supernatural power or magic can prevent the eventual death.

A terrifying power spread silently, as if the physical body of a fourth-tribulation golden immortal had been forcibly erased. The essence, blood, and soul within his body also dissipated along with it, leaving only a horrified head that crashed to the ground.

"You are not an anomaly, you are a calamity..."

The burly man with a thick beard, his mouth agape and a lingering trace of his true spirit remaining, seemed to want to say something, but Luo Tian, ​​standing before him, didn't seem interested in even glancing at him.

If it weren't to see what other tricks Yin Changyu had up his sleeve to survive, how could the burly man with the bushy beard have survived until now?

The beggar's version of the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation and the Great Black Heaven Dharma Image did surprise Luo Tian quite a bit, but that was about all the value the bearded giant possessed.

Do ants that have lost their value still have any reason to exist?

With one step, a "crack" sound rang out, and the only remaining head of the Fourth Tribulation Golden Immortal was completely crushed by Luo Tian's kick.

From the level of the soul to the level of the true spirit, not a single trace remains in this world.

Then, Luo Tian looked at the demon god's image outside Yunlai Peak with a hint of surprise.

It seemed that the colossal, towering Buddha statue was far more captivating than the clown that had been crushed to death beneath its feet.

Chapter 292 Soul Flames! 5000

"I never expected to see something like this!"

Luo Tian's words carried a hint of amazement.

As the master who holds the power of death, his system is also derived from the underworld's reincarnation system. The moment this demon god's dharma form appeared, Luo Tian noticed its special features.

In Luo Tian's eyes, that towering figure, whose strength was almost at its peak, was nothing special, at most comparable to Hun Yuanzi.

However, the fragmented will contained within this Frankenstein-like demonic form allowed Luo Tian to glimpse a trace of its essence.

"Divide one's own will and integrate it into the so-called Dharma form, and then merge one's body into heaven and earth."

Once someone reunites their Dharma form, they can then merge the fragmented wills, thereby stealing the person who wielded the Dharma form and achieving the goal of escaping calamity and being reborn in another form.

"Judging from its current power, it must have been a peerless genius who was at the peak of the eighth tribulation golden immortal in its lifetime, but had no hope of passing the ninth tribulation."

As Luo Tian was sighing, Yin Changyu's soul finally broke free from the shattered formation.

Although her soul was in charge of the formation, she had always been aware of the outside world. The time when the bearded giant used the Mahakala Dharma Image to break the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation and aimed directly at her physical body, it startled her.

The burly man's sudden outburst completely exceeded her expectations. In addition, she had already revealed all her trump cards, and the burly man's attack brought her great danger.

Fortunately, Luo Tian intervened in time, saving her from disaster. Yin Changyu looked at Luo Tian with gratitude in her eyes.

She didn't think that Luo Tian's help was a given. As the incarnation of the Old Ancestor Gou Dao, Yin Changyu knew very well that the first priority for survival was to understand her own position.

The real Yin Changsheng may be quite valuable to Luo Tian, ​​but she is merely an avatar. The fact that Luo Tian, ​​who is comparable to the great Luo Tian, ​​is willing to lend a helping hand is already an overwhelming honor for her.

Following Luo Tian's gaze to the towering Dharma image outside, Yin Changyu spoke:

"The cultivation technique that my junior brother is practicing is called the 'Great Black Heaven Secret Manual,' which is said to have come from an Eight Tribulation Golden Immortal who called himself Great Black Heaven."

Before his disappearance, Mahakala said that if one could comprehend the essence of the "Mahakala Secret Manual," one could transcend the nine tribulations and become a Nine Tribulations Golden Immortal.

"If this demon god's avatar is truly that Mahakala, then the so-called ability to transcend the nine tribulations is just a facade, designed to make people actively seek out the secrets of the Mahakala Manual and cultivate the Mahakala avatar, so that he can use the avatar to return to the Xuanhuang Heaven and Earth."

Upon hearing Yin Changyu's explanation, Luo Tian's smile deepened.

Looking at the bizarre illusory form of the Dharma body, its pieced-together face filled with chaos and savagery, Luo Tian softly commented:

"Although the methods were somewhat underhanded, the fact that such a unique method of avoiding calamity could be considered a remarkable achievement of his time."

Unfortunately, it clearly overestimated itself and underestimated the root cause of death that the calamity pointed to.

As soon as the words were spoken, the clear blue sky over Jade Emperor Mountain Cave Heaven instantly darkened.

The black sun that had appeared in the sky along with the Mahakala image suddenly turned blood red, and its eyes, which had been filled with rage, seemed to slowly revive within the blood-red sun.

Heavenly might descends!

Throughout the entire Jade Emperor Mountain Grotto Heaven, whether it was the high and mighty immortals or the birds, beasts, and insects among the mortals, all trembled in fear under the overwhelming might of Heaven.

This is the deepest fear of the power of heaven and earth that comes from the depths of all living beings; that power that points directly to the source of death makes all living beings tremble.

The ethereal spiritual energy that had been lingering above the main peak of Jade Emperor Mountain, a box-like structure that seemed to pierce the sky, quickly dissipated, and the radiant glow that had illuminated the entire peak also vanished rapidly.

Inside the Jade Emperor Hall, the smiles on the faces of the two Supreme Elders, Yu Qian and Yu Kun, who were entertaining guests, suddenly froze. They looked at the blood-red sun, which resembled a pupil, in shock above the Jade Emperor Mountain Cave Heaven.

The might of Heaven poured forth without reservation upon the entire Jade Emperor Mountain Grotto Heaven, and the wrath of the heavens chilled even the two Supreme Elders who were Seven Tribulation Golden Immortals.

However, to their surprise, the two guests they had invited behaved even worse than they had.

Both the Eighth Tribulation Golden Immortals, Xiao Zhan Ancestor and Xu Kun Daoist, from Suspended Mountain and Bright Moon Sea respectively, showed expressions of fear and said in trembling voices:

"Who is here to incite the ninth calamity?"

The Ninth Tribulation!

The calamity that will end the lifespan of the entire Xuanhuang Great World, the end of the lifespan of all powerful beings.

The ninth tribulation here refers to the ninth tribulation of the Golden Immortal, not the ninth tribulation of the Celestial Immortal that Yin Changsheng went through.

Throughout history, countless peerless geniuses have not stayed in the Celestial Immortal realm for long. Few freaks like Yin Changsheng would wait for more than 30,000 years below the Golden Immortal realm just to fight the ninth tribulation of the Celestial Immortal realm.

Even those who pursue the ultimate lifespan mostly choose to advance to the Golden Immortal realm after passing the eighth tribulation of the Celestial Immortal realm, thus extending their lifespan by tens of thousands of years.

This leads to the fact that, in the eyes of most people, Yin Changsheng, the only Nine Tribulation Celestial Immortal in history, although unparalleled throughout the ages, is actually just so-so.

If Yin Changsheng could pass it, perhaps any other prodigy could also overcome this so-called ninth tribulation of the Celestial Immortal.

However, the ninth tribulation of a Golden Immortal is a completely different concept.

The Golden Immortal rank is comparable to powerful divine power. In the Xuanhuang Great World, those who can advance to the Golden Immortal rank within the lifespan of over 30,000 years are already peerless geniuses, let alone those qualified to face the ninth tribulation of the Golden Immortal.

Although the number of people who have perished below the ninth tribulation of the Golden Immortal throughout history is very small, not even one-tenth of those who have perished below the eighth tribulation, the ninth tribulation of the Golden Immortal is still very famous in the entire Xuanhuang Great World.

Because everyone who perished in the ninth tribulation of the Golden Immortal realm was an Eight Tribulation Golden Immortal who had survived the previous eight great calamities. They were the undisputed top powerhouses of their time, standing at the pinnacle of all heavens, second only to the Great Divine Power.

Even due to the lifespan limitation brought about by the ninth tribulation of the Golden Immortal, these supreme beings roamed the realms fearlessly, possessing numerous supernatural powers and magical treasures. Even gods, kings, and demon kings of the abyss would avoid these eighth tribulation Golden Immortals.

Almost every Eight Tribulation Golden Immortal, in the last hundred years of their lifespan, leads a group of immortals to conquer a foreign world, leaving a legacy for the Xuanhuang Great World.

However, even an Eighth Tribulation Golden Immortal who could roam freely throughout the realms was still so vulnerable when facing the Ninth Tribulation of a Golden Immortal.

Even if one travels to the world of gods, the endless abyss, or other realms, one cannot escape this ninth calamity that points directly to death.

In the eyes of many Eight Tribulations Golden Immortals, the Ninth Tribulation of a Golden Immortal is the Book of Life and Death established by that great being in the dark for immortals.

Unless one joins the Wuzhuang Temple, no one can escape this inevitable calamity.

What's even more disheartening is that while these Eight Tribulation Golden Immortals have the opportunity to come into contact with Wuzhuang Temple, Wuzhuang Temple only seeks out cultivators below the True Immortal level or simply ordinary mortals when accepting disciples.

A powerful being in the Wuzhuang Temple said that once one enters the realm of a true immortal, one's life and death are predetermined, and even the greatest divine power cannot defy it.

The closer one gets to the Eighth Tribulation Golden Immortal, the more awe one feels for the legendary Ninth Tribulation of the Golden Immortal.

Therefore, when facing the Ninth Tribulation, the Old Ancestor Xiao Zhan of Suspended Mountain and the Daoist Xu Kun of Bright Moon Sea could not suppress the fear in their hearts.
