Linking the Secret Realms

In the Ziwei Star Domain, winds and clouds surge.

"Does Yin Tiande dare to fight? You can choose the time and place yourself!" Just half a month after Yin Tiande emerged from seclusion, a message spread throughout the four continents: Zhou Tong directly challenged Yin Tiande, causing a huge uproar.

The entire Ziwei Cultivation World was in an uproar, and the news spread rapidly to various places.

Countless people were also watching Yin Tiande closely, wanting to know his answer.

After he emerged from seclusion, rumors spread like wildfire throughout the Ziwei Star Domain that Yin Tiande had been "cuckolded" by Zhou Tong; countless people also constantly compared him to Zhou Tong.

In fact, in the Ziwei Cultivation World, this battle was already expected. The only thing they were looking forward to was when this battle would actually take place.

Now, Zhou Tong has officially launched a challenge against Yin Tiande.

"Seven days later, on the night of the full moon, at the Eight Profound Mountains!"

Yin Tiande didn't say much, only giving a time and a location.

Yin Tiande's response immediately shook the entire Ziwei Star Domain.

The "Great Sage" behind the Valley of Sinners has never shown his face, and no one knows what kind of Great Sage he is. How dare Yin Tiande accept the challenge? Isn't he afraid that if he wins, he will be crushed to death by an unknown "Great Sage"?

"Yin Tiande must have been prepared to confront the Great Sage long ago. It is very likely that he left something behind by the former master of the Eight Sceneries Palace, the man named ' Laozi '."

"Indeed, since his birth, Yin Tiande has never fought a battle he was not confident of winning. In this battle, Yin Tiande must have made preparations to retreat unscathed. Regardless of victory or defeat, he will be able to escape from the Great Sage's clutches."

"In my opinion, the ' Great Sage ' behind the Valley of Sinners may not necessarily make a move. He chose Zhou Tong as his representative because he is optimistic about his future. If Zhou Tong wins, there is no need for the Great Sage to intervene. If Zhou Tong loses, it means that he is nothing special, and the Great Sage may very well invest in Yin Tiande instead."

Countless people throughout the Ziwei Star Domain are discussing this battle.

While the outside world was in turmoil, in the Valley of Sinners...

Over the past four years, the Valley of Sinners, founded by Zhou Tong, has become increasingly prosperous, and the entire valley has become more peaceful. The abundant spiritual energy has transformed this place into a sacred land.

All the "evil people" who came here seemed to have been purified by some kind of power, and were able to cultivate themselves peacefully here.

Inside the very heart of the palace.

"Bang!"

Zhou Tong's clothes exploded and turned to ashes.

Then, Zi Xia Myriad Daos surrounded his body, divine light shone in countless rays, and chaos surged, making Zhou Tong's body crystal clear and radiant, flowing with precious light.

"The time for my comprehension over the past few years is almost up!" Zhou Tong said softly, then used his divine power, exhausting all his cultivation, and urging the divine power in his blood to almost completely burn.

"Boom!!"

With a loud bang, Zhou Tong transformed into a purple torch, his entire body's energy and divine power surging up and turning into purple mist that permeated the area.

Then, Zhou Tong's entire body cracked open, his bones broke, his internal organs turned dark, and blood splattered everywhere. He disintegrated in an instant, and his entire being was about to be completely Silent Annihilation.

Throughout the palace, white bone fragments, purple blood, and shattered entrails were scattered everywhere, shimmering with celestial radiance and floating with dazzling divine light, transforming into various Daoist images.

"Bear!"

On every drop of blood, every broken bone, every piece of flesh, the flames of Phoenix Nirvana burn.

Zhou Tong's body completely disintegrated, but under the Immortal Phoenix Treasure Art, it was constantly reborn and transformed, with the sun, moon, Star Scripture, mountains, rivers, plants, flowers, birds, insects, fish, dragons soaring through the heavens, Kunpeng over the sea, Kirin exhaling auspicious omens, Deity traveling...

Every drop of blood, every fragment of bone, is a spectacle.

The entire palace was filled with countless points of light, which were formed after Zhou Tong's body completely decomposed into particles, making it look extremely eerie.

"Buzz!!"

The Void the Great trembled slightly, and faint chanting emanated from each of the particles he had broken down, like the prayers of Ancient Ancestors, like sacrifices to heaven and earth, or even like the roar of dragons Phoenix Cry...

"Boom!"

Like a thunderbolt, the Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings appeared, illuminating the scene. Zhou Tong's completely disintegrated body trembled continuously, spewing out divine light.

Waves of divine light emanated from each of the particles that had broken him apart.

"The Past Self, the Dao Self, the True Self... all are essentially me!" Zhou Tong's voice seemed to come from the River of Time, echoing throughout the entire palace.

"Four years of enlightenment, discovering my true self, and unlocking the secret realm—it's time!"

"Boom!!"

Countless particles of light converged toward the Dao Platform of the palace. Over the past few years, Zhou Tong had comprehended countless scriptures and profound mysteries, integrating them into his body. His flesh and bones were thus reorganized, completely connecting the Five Great Secret Realms. He broke free and evolved his own Dao.

Although it is only a prototype now, not perfect, and there are still many things to be solved; at this moment, Zhou Tong has solved the hidden danger of the Five Great Secret Realms not being compatible with each other, and his whole body is as one, clear and bright as a mirror.

Zhou Tong has never been able to cultivate the complete ancient scripture.

In the Sea of Wheels Realm, he primarily cultivated the "Feather Transformation Scripture" and secondarily cultivated the "Dao Scripture"; in the Dao Palace Realm, he primarily cultivated the "Emperor Zun Scripture" and secondarily cultivated the "Empress West Scripture Hengyu Scripture"; in the Four Extremities Realm, he cultivated the "Eternal Universe Scripture"; in the Dragon Transformation Realm the "Indestructible Heavenly Merit" and secondarily cultivated the "Great Emperor Scripture"; finally, the Taiyin Taiyang gathered at the Immortal Platform.

The nine completely different scriptures could not be connected at all; therefore, Zhou Tong's combat power had never been able to be fully unleashed.

But at this moment, he had already solved the problem.

"Boom!!"

A blurry "monster" emerged from the Void the Great, manifesting its Dharma form.

The sounds of chanting, the Heavenly Connection and Earth Penetration chants, the roars of dragons and the cries of phoenixes, all came in droves. Various strange phenomena Past Self and my Dao Self emerged at the same time, coming together and merging into that monstrous Dharma form.

It was a "monster" that looked ferocious. Although it was roughly humanoid, it had a pair of dragon horns on its head that were as bright as purple coral, a pair of Immortal Phoenix Wings, a pair of Kunpeng Wings and a pair of thunder wings on its back, and its whole body was covered with Kirin scales, with grass and leaf tattoos appearing on the Kirin scales.

This is Zhou Tong's Divine Form, Unique Divine Form formed by the fusion of six Divine Form: Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, True Dragon, Immortal Phoenix, Kirin, Kunpeng, and Thunder Emperor!

Although this Unique Divine Form has not yet been perfectly integrated, especially the three Divine Form of Kirin, Kunpeng and Thunder Emperor, it has not been perfectly integrated; however, this Divine Form now shows signs of true unification, and it will reach perfection once the second Divine Form of Immortal Qi is formed.

The moment the Divine Form appeared, this was the Dao, the very Dao that Zhou Tong himself possessed. And Zhou Tong's physical form was completely reborn under the influence of this Divine Form.

This process is a rebirth, a reshaping, the beginning of a completely new him, a true rebirth from the ashes.

"Divine Form united, transforming into Battle Immortal... This is my path!" Zhou Tong opened his eyes, his whole body shimmering with a crystalline luster, radiating a battle intent as surging and intense as a vast ocean.

The fighting spirit emanating from the Azure Heaven Hegemonic Blood within his entire being was fully unleashed, leaving him in a state of extreme excitement.

At that moment, he was like a Sword One the beauty of mountains and rivers, awe-inspiring and captivating.

They entered the Divine Prohibition State once again, but this time the divine restriction was completely different from the ethereal aura of the past; instead, it contained Supreme Battle Intent.

If the previous divine restrictions were like a calm well, then this divine restriction is burning and exploding!

The overwhelming fighting spirit caused the heavens and the Void the Great to tremble, and even the All Gods could not help but sigh.

"War!" "War!" "War!"

Zhou Tong's voice, like a dragon's Tianyi echoing through the heavens, reverberated in the air above the palace for a long time. The Void the Great trembled from the thunderous sound, and the entire world seemed to shudder along with it.

He roared out three "war" words, each one causing his Hegemonic Blood to boil. The three consecutive roars pushed his aura to an unimaginable extreme, enveloping his entire body in an unparalleled aura.

A surging fighting spirit, boundless and mighty!

There were no conspiracies, no scheming, no arrogance, no cruelty, not even Killing Intent or anger; there was only fighting spirit, a righteous and open fighting spirit, a pure fighting spirit!

In that instant, every drop of blood in his body was glowing and boiling, imbued with a battle aura as brilliant as purple wolf smoke. This blood possessed a fighting spirit, as if each drop of blood was a war god, wielding weapons, burning with blood, and conquering the heavens!

"Eight Profound Mountains days from now..."

"Yin Tiande, I can't wait any longer!!"
