Threefold Domain, Able to Kill at the Stellar Ninth Transformation
The powerful Dao Resonance repeatedly washed over the domain barriers of the Tribulation Source Laws, shattering the first layer of shackles, loosening the second layer of barriers, and opening the third layer of gateways.
Breaking through layer after layer, unstoppable!
Without any stagnation or bottleneck, under the infusion of a massive amount of Heavenly Dao Fruits, the Tribulation Source Law soared all the way, directly crossing the third Heaven Realm from the initial entry into the domain.
[The Tribulation Source Law: Perfection of the Threefold Domain.]
At this moment, the source of calamity is no longer a simple combination of offense and defense, but a supreme Dao Domain that truly touches the root of all calamities. It can attract calamities, refine calamities, devour calamities, and bury calamities, and control the birth and death of calamities in heaven and earth.
With his Dao Domain stable and his foundation complete, Chen Du proceeded to deduce the final sword strike.
He used the Tribulation Origin Triple Dao Domain as his absolute foundation, the Twelfth Tier Divine Tribulation Sword as his killing vessel, and integrated the six fundamental laws of Tribulation Traversal, Tribulation Armor, Bury Heaven, Extinguish Earth, Divine Prison, Wrath of Heaven, and Wrath Devouring as auxiliary foundations.
Myriad sword techniques, the essence of calamity, and the grand momentum of annihilation rapidly took shape and solidified within my sea of consciousness.
Previously, the eight swords each possessed unique abilities, each responsible for offense and defense, and each wielding immense power.
But this final sword strike completely broke free from all constraints.
It does not distinguish between offense and defense, birth and death, or reality and illusion.
All calamities originate from the source, and all laws return to one.
With a flick of the sword, the source of calamity surged, all the tribulations of the heavens were reduced to one, and all things with form returned to nothingness.
All sword techniques were fully perfected, and the Heavenly Tribulation Nine Swords finally achieved unification.
[Heavenly Tribulation Nine Swords - Ninth Sword: The Calamity Source Returns to One, Completely Taking Shape.]
[Swordplay Characteristics: With a single strike, all calamities return to their origin, and all phenomena Return to the Ruins.]
[Combat Power Assessment: Stellar Seventh Transformation and below, will crumble upon contact and be annihilated upon encounter.]
After a long while, Chen Du slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air that had settled his Dao foundation.
A flash of dark gold light appeared in his eyes and disappeared in an instant, completely concealed deep within his soul, revealing no hint of sharpness.
The Tribulation Source Threefold Domain has reached its peak, and the Heavenly Tribulation Nine Swords have reached their final form.
He lowered his eyes to look at his palm, where the Origin Tribulation Pattern slowly flowed, its color deep and refined, its texture fine and flawless, several times thicker than before, each line carrying the foundation of the Great Dao for three hundred million years.
Gently move your shoulders, neck, and limbs, and your whole body will feel a harmonious and flawless Dao Resonance, with all your meridians flowing freely and openly.
Three million years of Calamity Qi were exchanged for three hundred million years of enlightenment on the Dao, perfection of the laws, and ultimate mastery of the sword path.
This breakthrough is not a slight increase, but a leap forward that signifies the completion of the path and a qualitative change in combat power.
Eight swords can slay seven molts; with nine swords, the seven molts become invincible.
Qingfeng Mountain, a young man stood silently.
The Heavenly Tribulation Nine Swords are now fully perfected, and the Great Dao of Tribulation Source governs all tribulations.
His cultivation path has reached its peak once again. From now on, he has the absolute confidence to resist and crush all the hidden dangers, all the schemes, and all the undercurrents that have been lurking for a hundred years.
The Three Realms establish the foundation of the Dao; the Stellar Sixth Transformation govern the myriad borders.
The moment the Tribulation Source Law stabilized and perfected the Threefold Domain, Chen Du's sea of consciousness and the sky trembled violently!
The dark golden Self Star suspended in the deepest part of the soul suddenly ignited with an eternal Dao fire.
It was as if the very essence of the universe had been ignited from the star's core, making the entire star blaze with light.
The densely interwoven patterns of calamity and Eternal Night on the surface all radiated an extremely brilliant golden light, with billions of patterns simultaneously lighting up, cracking, and reshaping.
All the old traces of the Dao were rendered obsolete, and new, fundamental textures were reborn in a frenzy.
The radius of the star expands wildly, and the primordial stellar force increases, accumulates, and leaps exponentially.
The previously stabilized Stellar Threefold Transformation had not yet fully settled when the shackles of a new round of metamorphosis shattered!
A second transformation, seamlessly arriving!
The violent and surging power of the Star Path rushed wildly, attempting to break through the confinement of the Sea of Consciousness and shatter the heavens and earth.
For an ordinary cultivator, such a series of violent energies breaking through the barrier would have already shattered their foundation and destroyed their soul.
But Chen Du now possesses the Tribulation Source Tribulation Threefold Domain, Dao Domain is perfect and stable, like a pillar stabilizing the world.
He gritted his teeth, his Dao heart as firm as a rock, and with the Threefold Calamity Source Dao Domain as the absolute framework, he forcefully locked the rampaging vast star power within the core of the star.
Without letting a single drop escape or a single strand dissipate, it forces all the surging power to temper the celestial body and solidify its foundation.
Boom!
A profound Daoist voice resounded from the depths of his soul, marking the completion of the Fourth Stellar Metamorphosis!
Before the residual force had subsided, the celestial body expanded again, with energy layer upon layer stacking up wildly and surging once more!
Five transformations!
Six transformations!
In just a few breaths, the sea of consciousness resembled a newly born chaotic starry sky.
Endless stellar power collapses, condenses, and purifies inward to its extreme, squeezing out the purest primordial power.
Then, at the moment of extreme collapse, it burst forth with a roar, completing a complete transformation of the Great Dao.
Three consecutive breakthroughs, each building upon the previous one, climbing step by step.
Every transformation is an extreme form of torture, stripping away the skin and tempering the bones.
The scorching Star Dao True Fire burned through my meridians and tore apart my soul and body, as if my entire mind and spirit were thrown into an ancient furnace, being tempered, burned and reborn, and forged and reshaped.
The excruciating pain was bone-chilling and searing, enough to crush the Dao heart of any great cultivator in the world.
But Chen Du remained calm and unmoved throughout.
The Threefold Calamity Source Dao Domain steadily suppressed the entire sea of consciousness, imprisoning all the violent energy, and forcefully withstood the overwhelming backlash of the six transformations, turning every bit of power into its own.
As all the strange phenomena gradually subsided, his sea of consciousness returned to tranquility.
At this moment, that Self Star is no longer a thing.
Compared to its third metamorphosis, the star's volume has increased more than a thousandfold, becoming perfectly round and flawless, with its golden radiance subdued.
The star path origin, tribulation path foundation, and great path thickness contained within it have all increased by hundreds of times simultaneously, becoming as heavy as Ancient God and as vast as an endless star sea.
The Stellar Sixth Transformation, complete and perfect!
In the bamboo courtyard, Chen Du sat quietly in place.
The leap in realm was too great, and the accumulated power was too immense. It was difficult to completely contain it in an instant, and the vast pressure leaked out uncontrollably.
Buzz--!
The entire Qingfeng Mountain trembled slightly, its terrain undulating, and the Dao Resonance resonated.
The stone tables and chairs in the courtyard were pushed several feet away by an invisible, powerful shockwave. The green bamboo on the mountain swayed and leaves danced in the air.
After a long while, Chen Du exhaled a long breath of scorching turbid air, and all his vast pressure was completely contained within his divine soul star body, with no trace of it leaking out.
He lowered his eyes to look at his palm. Beneath his skin, the original patterns of the calamity source flowed slowly, vivid, profound, and flawless.
Compared to before, its Dao Resonance is deeper, its texture is denser, and its origin is purer, truly reaching the ultimate state of perfect harmony.
With a slight thought, he condensed his palm in mid-air.
A small, exquisite sphere of dark golden light quietly took shape.
The sphere of light appears to be only an inch in size and unremarkable, but it contains the concentrated power of the six-stage stellar origin and the Threefold Calamity Source Dao Domain.
The extremely condensed energy distorted the surrounding void, causing layers of space near and far to fold and slightly collapse, radiating a terrifying potential energy that could annihilate all things.
This was an attack where the power of calamity was condensed to its extreme; it was silent, without force or power, yet it contained the power to Return to the Ruins.
Chen Du raised his finger and pointed to the distant barren mountains.
A stream of dark gold light streaked through the air, leaving no trace or ripple, before landing on the mountainside.
There was no earth-shattering roar, no massive shockwave, not even the slightest commotion.
But that towering, desolate mountain stretching for miles, from its rocks to its veins, from its vegetation to its soil, vanished in an instant, turning into the finest dust of heaven and earth.
No smoke or dust was raised, and no debris remained.
The once towering mountains are now reduced to a flat, smooth, and massive, deep crater spanning several miles, silently attesting to the destructive power of that finger.
Chen Du slowly stood up, his fingertips loosely clenched.
The resounding sword echoed through the mind, and the Twelfth Tier Divine Tribulation Sword landed in the palm of the hand. Dark gold tribulation patterns flowed across the pitch-black blade, captivating the soul.
His gaze was calm as he mentally reviewed the ultimate sword strike— the Heavenly Tribulation Nine Swords: The Calamity Source Returns to One.
At this moment, with the perfected Stellar Sixth Transformation Dao Foundation as the base and the Threefold Calamity Source Dao Domain as the guide, he integrated all the laws and Daos around him and deduced the complete sword principles of the Ninth Sword.
