It turns out, they were the main characters.

Mu Zhian was furious. His body had been broken and reassembled several times, and his spiritual consciousness was already extremely weak.

Despite having just used six of the Heavenly Court's runes, it was still difficult to withstand the combined attack of these powerful beings.

As he plummeted awkwardly from mid-air, Mu Zhian seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up. Above the gloomy clouds of tribulation, a woman in a flowing white dress, with an indifferent expression, looked down upon the creatures on the ground like a deity.

Her long hair fell straight down without any embellishment, her long dress shimmered with a captivating, unique spiritual stone luster, her bare, fair feet were exposed, and her face was devoid of any emotion.

"What exactly do you want?" Mu Zhian asked telepathically.

The 'Will of Heaven' did not speak, its cold face devoid of emotion as it gazed silently. It was like an ancient goddess, emanating no aura whatsoever, yet from the moment it descended, the rules of the entire world revolved around it, with countless stars seemingly behind it.

Like a true immortal who has ascended to the heavens, standing alone in the world.

At that moment, Mu Zhian suddenly heard a voice that sounded mechanical and emotionless: "Kneel down."

"Then, submit to me."

Mu Zhian paused for a moment, staring at the tribulation clouds above. He wasn't sure if the voice he had just heard was from this woman, because her expression had been lifeless from beginning to end, like a high and mighty god looking down on all living beings, not taking any of the creatures in the world seriously.

"Was that you speaking just now?" Mu Zhian tentatively transmitted his voice again, because he noticed that the phantoms of those powerful figures in the distance had not attacked, and something seemed amiss.

The woman looked at Mu Zhi'an coldly. She was stunningly beautiful. This time, Mu Zhi'an clearly saw her part her lips slightly and say, "Submit to me."

"You have self-awareness?" Mu Zhian transmitted his voice again.

But she didn't respond. Only after a short while did she speak again, as if mechanically: "Your Majesty—"

"Can't Mu Ren get lost?!" Before she could speak, Mu Zhi'an's voice rang out first.

This Heavenly Will seems to be a bit slow on the uptake, like a broken record, repeating the same sentence over and over again.

Mu Zhian's curse caused even the Heavenly Dao Will manifested in Kyushu to pause for a moment.

All living beings in this world, to varying degrees, hold a sense of awe towards the Way of Heaven.

But Mu Zhian did not.

He doesn't believe in gods, nor does he respect such a way of heaven.

boom……

This time, the will of Heaven remained silent. Suddenly, the phantoms of several powerful beings in the Heavenly Tribulation moved and pressed down on Mu Zhi'an together. Ancestral artifacts intertwined in mid-air, creating a despair-inducing pressure.

But Mu Zhian made no further move, only staring intently at the countdown that appeared in front of him.

He didn't know why this countdown appeared after he 'saved' his game, but judging from the black mist surrounding the countdown, the ability was indeed that of the Primordial Witch.

This is something the primordial witch left him.

Countdown: 00:00:15

In the final fifteen seconds, Mu Zhian put away the Measuring Ruler. With his last bit of strength, he turned his head to look at the Heavenly Dao Will, which was high above and resembled a goddess, within the tribulation clouds.

Then, he looked at the many powerful beings who had left their 'traces' during the Heavenly Tribulation not far ahead.

Thanks to the will of Heaven, he finally realized for the first time just how troublesome his wives would be if they became his opponents.

Like the calm before a storm, the whole world seemed to fall silent at this moment.

Mu Zhian felt as if he were standing in a world where light and shadow intertwined, and fleeting images flashed through his mind.

Immediately afterwards, a voice seemed to echo between heaven and earth:

The world is restarting...

Then, the countdown began:

5...

4...

3...

2...

1...

The world has successfully restarted.

For a moment, Mu Zhian felt as if he had lost consciousness and was completely enveloped in darkness.

In the darkness, the whole world seemed to shatter into countless pieces like broken glass, then quickly reassembled, piecing together a brand new world in an instant.

Mu Zhian slowly opened his eyes.

What came into view was a woman who had just floated down from the soft white light... the will of Heaven.

Chapter 528 Two-Stage Reversal!

"The Blessing of the Primordial Witch" is one of the titles on Mu Zhian's personal profile.

It is unlike any of the titles that Mu Zhian possesses; its only ability is to turn back time to the past.

For some reason, in the past, time travel could only be done after Mu Zhian died, but this time it was presented as a countdown.

When Mu Zhian opened his eyes, he saw a vast sea of ​​lightning all around him. Under the sky, two tribulation clouds were silently dissipating, and a woman with an indifferent expression had quietly descended accompanied by a milky white halo.

The embodiment of the will of Heaven.

Time did not rewind to before Mu Zhian's tribulation, but rather restarted after the Seven Heavenly Tribulations ended!

"Can you turn back time?"

Just then, the woman who descended from the clouds of calamity spoke coldly.

Her voice was as cold as ice that could freeze a person, crisp yet pleasant to hear.

The silver moon behind him seemed to radiate a holy and gentle glow, its gaze calm and serene.

She knew she could turn back time!

Mu Zhian was somewhat surprised, but he maintained a calm expression on his face.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. After all, this is a part of the will that was separated from the Heavenly Dao, and its methods are all-powerful. It's not surprising that she would know that she can rewind time.

However, this high and mighty goddess was clearly not very interested in Mu Zhi'an's abilities. She simply spoke again in a calm tone: "Disrupting the order of heaven and earth shall be punished with nine lifetimes of heavenly tribulation."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Mu Zhian suddenly asked, "What action of mine has affected the order of heaven and earth?"

The woman said indifferently, "You are a heretic."

Mu Zhian understood what she meant. She meant that his existence itself was outside the constraints of the rules of heaven and earth, and that he had just caused an anomaly in the heavenly tribulation during his tribulation, thus making him a 'heretic'.

Mu Zhian knew long ago that persuasion would not make Tiandao give up; he just wanted to take this time to think of a solution.

The Primal Witch's ability to rewind allows him to return to the past after a half-hour countdown, and this ability can also be triggered after Mu Zhian's death.

Until he successfully passed through this tribulation.

The reason for adding the 'half-hour' countdown is probably because the Primordial Witch was worried that he would be forcibly bound.

As long as he doesn't die, the time rewind cannot be triggered. Therefore, once the will of Heaven discovers this secret, it may be able to use some method to forcibly trap Mu Zhi'an and prevent him from committing suicide.

Wei Mengrou watched from a nearby mountain peak, thinking that this was also the work of the Primordial Witch.

Boom...

Just as Mu Zhian was secretly pondering how to deal with it, a blue light flashed before his eyes.

The phantom of the Pure Lotus descended once more.

"Damn it, how did it even start?!"

Mu Zhian cursed inwardly. This time, he opened his personal interface with ease. He didn't even need to save his game. The Primordial Witch had already restarted the half-hour countdown for him.

……

In the Nine Provinces, there are actually very few people who understand the Way of Heaven and possess their own will.

It wasn't until the goddess's figure descended with a soft white light that people finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

Even these clan elders never imagined that someone would provoke the Heavenly Dao with a single heavenly tribulation.

Ye Lingxuan stood in mid-air, her gaze fixed on the young man amidst the vast lightning tribulation, and said softly, "Do you have any ideas?"

"There's nothing we can do. Every time a cultivator steps into the Heavenly Tribulation, the difficulty of the tribulation increases... Miss can only trust that Mu Zhian can successfully overcome this tribulation," the Reincarnated Empress said in a low voice.

"Brother Ke Mu has already gone back in time once. If you were at the peak of the Returning to Void realm, would you be confident in dealing with nine powerful beings at the same time?" Ye Lingxuan suddenly turned her head to look at the Reincarnation Empress and asked.

The woman fell silent for a moment.

Of those present, only Ye Lingxuan and the Reincarnated Empress knew about Mu Zhian's retrospective events, because both of their Daoist auras were related to time.

They had all witnessed the terrible state of Mu Zhian when he first encountered this calamity.

That was not a tribulation prepared for cultivators in the Returning to the Void Realm at all. At least from the past to the present, there has never been a case of someone undergoing tribulation while fighting against the phantoms of nine powerful beings at the same time.

"I don't know how he can survive this tribulation either," the Reincarnated Empress said softly after a long silence.

Ye Lingxuan remained silent, but subconsciously tightened her grip on the Desolate Time Lock in her sleeve, her gaze fixed on the boy in the sea of ​​lightning.

Having gone through the previous rewind, Mu Zhian was clearly much more experienced in combat this time. The moment the two powerful figures attacked together and shattered the Measuring Ruler, Mu Zhian had already summoned the Eight Desolate Dream Map, instantly absorbing the bronze sword that Gong Lianyue was attacking into the Eight Desolate Dream Map.

Then he turned around and used his elbow to block the Qi-transforming Cauldron that Luo Tan had summoned.

hum!

This Qi Transformation Cauldron seemed to have acquired a wisp of the will of a celestial-grade artifact spirit, and with a single strike, it severely injured Mu Zhian's body, almost shattering his spiritual consciousness.

At this moment, time rewinds for the third time.

It was almost like completing a game; Mu Zhian kept repeating the same thing over and over again.

However, to the lofty will of Heaven, this was merely a death throes.

The woman wore a flowing long dress, her upper body made of armor crafted from several kinds of celestial metals, while the dress itself was made of a silk material that was equally difficult to tear, clearly also crafted from some kind of rare and precious silk.

She looked down at the struggling boy on the ground without any emotion, making no move, just watching quietly.

Indeed, there were nine phantoms of Dao Integration Realm experts in the Heavenly Tribulation, each with combat power no less than that of the Enlightenment Realm.

Unless Mu Zhian is willing to do anything to demote the Heavenly Lord, this is a dead end.

However, each time a Heavenly Court position is bestowed, a portion of the essence blood of the Ascension Realm will be consumed. Moreover, the Heavenly Tribulation is a test set by the Heavenly Dao. If the position of the Heavenly Court Lord is bestowed, wouldn't that be considered a violation of the rules of heaven and earth once again?

After the time of the Heavenly Court's ruler ends, will the Heavenly Dao be able to send down heavenly tribulations again?
