Chapter 432 The Tribulation of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, twenty years had gone by. The Daoist body that was originally pitch black on the cliff had undergone tremendous changes.
Beneath that body condensed with deathly aura, a glimmer of life was brewing. The black deathly aura on the bones was slowly cracking, and strands of golden light were escaping from the cracks.
hum!
On this day, the entire world trembled. On the withered body sitting on the cliff, beams of brilliant golden light shot out, and the dark death aura fell away inch by inch like dirt, revealing the pure white bones beneath.
hum!
Strange Daoist sounds emanated from his body, causing the void to tremble slightly. At his dantian, a pitch-black mark of death, exuding an aura of stillness, was flashing with black light.
Duh!
The moment the mark of death took shape, it resonated with the mark of life between the eyebrows. Immediately afterward, all the death energy that had gathered on the bones dissipated, revealing a pure white skeleton.
The life force gestating within him was growing rapidly, with flesh and blood slowly growing out of his bones, exuding a primal and powerful aura.
boom!
A deafening roar resounded, and on the cliff, Li Dao's body, as clear as divine gold, exuded a profound and mysterious Dao aura. Just sitting there, he possessed an unparalleled air of dominating the universe.
With his white hair fluttering in the wind and his face as handsome as jade, he sat on the precipice. In front of him was a pitch-black, deathly silence, and behind him was a divine tomb radiating golden light.
Li Dao sat between the two, seemingly at the intersection of Yin and Yang, life and death. Behind him, the Wheel of Life and Death Reincarnation slowly manifested, drawing in endless death energy and also absorbing strands of golden life force.
Meanwhile, in that mysterious space, Li Dao watched as a sword pierced through the sky, revealing the return of Li Baiyi, but there was no one behind him.
Everyone else was dead, except for him, but now he too was about to die.
His consciousness once again plunged into an endless abyss, but this time there was no reincarnation. When he opened his eyes, he found himself sitting cross-legged on a cliff.
With abundant divine power within his body, his Dao body radiated a shimmering divine light. Before him lay endless black death energy, and Li Dao immediately recognized this place as the Chaos Sea.
"I'm back?" Li Dao's hoarse voice echoed in the empty space, his eyes filled with the vicissitudes of time.
Looking down at his own palms, he saw that the knuckles were distinct and the palms were white as jade. His eyes gradually became clear, and his mind sank into his body.
The blood and qi within his body were like mercury, radiating a sacred golden light. His bones were whiter than jade, yet as tough as celestial gold, emitting a metallic clang with the slightest vibration.
A sense of enlightenment surged into his heart. There is great fortune between life and death, and a transformation from death to life, which allowed his body to enter the realm of the Void Dao ahead of time.
With the experiences of countless reincarnations echoing in his mind, the primordial spirit slowly opened his eyes, drew his sword from its sheath, and severed those unforgettable experiences.
"I remember that desire to live, but this massive experience has also affected me."
As he severed those memories, he felt a sudden sense of relief, his mind became clear, and his path to enlightenment became clearer than ever before.
As he formed the Dao seal with his hands, the marks of life and death slowly manifested, settling on his body and gradually merging together.
As the mark of life and death entered the body, an extremely powerful force erupted.
Click!
A crisp cracking sound came from Li Dao's body, breaking through the shackles binding him. At that moment, his power surged.
The Wheel of Life and Death Reincarnation emitted countless streams of light, and wherever it went, even the most immovable floating rocks were instantly reduced to dust.
boom!
A beam of light shot into the sky, the divine might of the Void Dao swept across the four directions, and the life and death imprints, after merging, also burst forth with extremely brilliant divine light, transforming into a Dao seal that exuded the aura of reincarnation.
The Samsara Seal entered Li Dao's brow directly, and the profound meaning of Samsara continuously flooded into his mind.
With a light step forward, the power of reincarnation swept in all directions, and a white-gold gate rose from the ground beneath him, exuding terrifying divine might. Dao patterns rippled on it, seemingly connecting to the myriad worlds.
"The Gate of Reincarnation!"
Li Dao whispered, and the Gate of Reincarnation appeared behind him. With a flick of his finger, the Reincarnation Seal between his brows shone with divine light, and the Gate of Reincarnation behind him trembled slightly and slowly opened.
boom!
A towering white pillar surged forth from the Gate of Reincarnation like a tidal wave. In an instant, the deathly aura that was originally so dense below the cliff suddenly gathered together, drawn by the power of reincarnation, and slowly swept towards the Gate of Reincarnation.
The power of reincarnation flickered in Li Dao's eyes, and the laws of life and death trembled as he raised his hand.
"Holding the reincarnation of life and death, controlling the cycle of life and death."
Looking at the deathly aura accumulated over ten thousand years, a glint of light flashed in his eyes, and with a wave of his sleeve, a bronze spear appeared.
"This spear has been used in battle for so long, it's time to upgrade it."
After saying that, he threw the bronze spear into the dense death aura. As he formed hand seals, he unleashed Dao patterns. The death aura that was originally surging towards Li Dao seemed to have found a new outlet and rushed towards the spear.
hum!
Li Dao summoned the Divine Refining Furnace, preparing to melt the death energy and reshape the spear.
The entire world trembled violently. Li Dao's hair flew wildly as he hovered in mid-air, his entire body radiating a rampant aura of the Void Dao, and the Gate of Reincarnation emanating immense power.
The endless abyss wounds before him were filled with deathly energy surging towards the bronze spear, which was undergoing tremendous changes under the tempering of the God-Refining Furnace.
Half a year passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, Li Dao had completely mastered the Void Dao Realm. However, he could also feel that he had touched the rules of the Heavenly Dao, and that he would inevitably suffer a heavenly tribulation if he went out.
This place is special; it shields us from the heavenly tribulation. But once we leave, things might change.
However, he was not worried at all, and his eyes gleamed with a sharp light.
hum!
A violent tremor shook the void, and the cocoon of death energy slowly dissipated, revealing a cold glint within, through which a bronze spear slowly emerged.
Compared to before, the bronze spear has undergone a great change. The spearhead has become more slender, as if it were inlaid with a long sword, and it is covered with a lingering black light, as if it were made of dark immortal gold. The spear ferrule is also imprinted with mysterious Dao patterns.
The spear became even more domineering. Li Dao reached out and grasped it in his hand. It was heavy, and a sense of deathly stillness washed over him. With a gentle swing forward, he sliced through the stars above his head.
Rumble!
As he cleaved down stars like falling into an abyss, a look of satisfaction flashed in Li Dao's eyes.
"This trip can be considered a great success. I broke through to the Void Path, reshaped my divine weapon, and the combat instincts I cultivated were also a great opportunity."
Li Dao waved his hand again, pressing the Refining God Furnace down on his head. In an instant, the original power of the Void Dao Realm gradually weakened, suppressing the Void Dao Realm cultivation.
"It seems that by suppressing his Void Dao cultivation and concealing his aura, this calamity has come a little later."
As for avoiding the calamity, that was impossible.
He entered the cycle of life and death and even created a reincarnation seal, thus embarking on a different path from the past. At this moment, he was walking the cycle of life and death. Although he did not create his own path, it had taken shape.
It was inevitable that he would suffer a great calamity, which was both a test for him and a trial by heaven and earth for the path he had chosen.
"Years have passed, and I wonder how my old friends are doing outside."
Just as Li Dao was feeling sentimental, a lazy voice rang in his ears again.
"Time flows differently in the outside world and here, so you don't need to worry about the sea turning into mulberry fields in the blink of an eye."
Dressed in pristine white robes with a white belt around his waist, Li Baiyi walked slowly from the void with his hands behind his back.
A warm smile played on his lips, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes as he looked at Li Dao.
"Greetings, senior." Li Dao greeted Li Baiyi with a slight bow upon his arrival.
"Heh, no need for such formalities. We can just call each other fellow Daoists. You've already forged your own path, so we're on the same road." Li Baiyi waved his hand, not caring about such empty formalities.
"Senior is too kind. I have no way to repay your kindness in helping me." Li Dao was very grateful to Li Baiyi. If it weren't for the other party, he wouldn't have been able to activate the Mark of Life and condense the Reincarnation Seal.
"Ah, a mark of being adrift and helpless, a still weak seed of a Celestial King, quite fitting."
"However, since you are unwilling, then so be it, I will not force you."
A complex look flashed in Li Baiyi's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
"What are your plans after this? Time will return to normal here for cultivators above the Void Dao level. Otherwise, I might as well keep you company a little longer." Li Baiyi looked at Li Dao with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
"I will seek opportunities to prepare for the tribulation, and then break through the tribulation to prove the Great Dao." A resolute look flashed in Li Dao's eyes. He had no intention of staying here to cultivate.
“Your tribulation is no simple matter. The heavenly tribulations outside have already subsided, and there will be no heavenly tribulations in this era, but I can still feel that heavenly might here.”
"If it weren't for the presence of Quasi-King Laws spreading here, this Heavenly Tribulation would have come knocking on our door."
Li Baiyi smiled and watched as the Wheel of Life and Death Reincarnation behind Li Dao slowly rotated, seemingly connecting the order of heaven and earth.
"Does Senior know anything?" Li Dao asked Li Baiyi upon hearing this. The person in front of him was a quasi-king, and that being might even be a Celestial King if he were still alive at this moment. Naturally, he would know more than he did.
"The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Tribulation is a great calamity that has not been recorded in history. Once it comes, even a supreme being will die upon touching it. Be careful." Li Baiyi's eyes held a hint of regret.
Li Dao remained largely unfazed by Li Baiyi's words, indicating he was already mentally prepared for this tribulation.
"Thank you for informing me, senior." Li Dao bowed to Li Baiyi again.
"What a boring boy. Consider this your reward for helping me resolve my inner conflict."
Li Baiyi pointed a finger, and a Dao pattern with iron strokes and silver hooks entered Li Dao's body. The Dao Fruit of the Void Dao Realm was directly sealed under that Dao pattern.
"I have suppressed your Dao Fruit. Before you are ready to undergo the tribulation, I can guarantee that you will not attract the Heavenly Tribulation. You can use the power of the Void Dao at any time, but there is a limit to the number of times. If you use it too many times, the seal will break down on its own."
Be careful.
A hint of joy flashed in Li Dao's eyes as he retrieved the Divine Refining Furnace. Just as he was about to bow to Li Baiyi again, his vision blurred, and he found himself standing before the dark gate.
Behind him, Li Baiyi's voice drifted over softly.
"Young man, when you return to the borderlands, come back here and see me again."
After saying this, Li Baiyi's voice disappeared, and on the cliff, that tall and imposing figure reappeared.
He remained lonely, the sunlight swirling beneath him, guarding this sacred tomb alone, gazing at the tombstones.
Li Dao bowed, a look of dazedness flashing in his eyes. Even though his memories had been severed, each tombstone gave him a sense of familiarity.
He left, and as he took out the token, he transformed into a streak of light and vanished into the world.
The tomb of the gods returned to the deathly silence that had persisted for tens of thousands of years, but a faint sigh could be heard coming from beneath the precipice.
Swish!
Li Dao's figure slowly appeared, and as he turned around, the dark gate behind him was already closed, standing there silently, sealing off the traces of a great battle.
"How much time has passed?" He looked around and saw that it was exactly the same as when he last went in. It seemed like not much time had passed, but it also seemed like a long time had passed.
"You've returned." Just as Li Dao was in a daze, a voice rang out from afar.
Tread!
