Dao Attainment
"I wonder if you can actually achieve the Great Hegemon Body of Hegemony!" Yan Ruyu was somewhat worried, after all, it was the supreme Imperial Dao Laws, which was too powerful.
"Huh!?" But soon, her expression changed slightly, because Zhou Tong was a little different today.
He had been sitting cross-legged for 120 years, and today he actually stood up.
"Om!"
As Zhou Tong stood up, it was as if a mountain had risen from the ground, its overwhelming power shaking the world. Vast Purple Qi swept across the sky, and an extremely powerful force rippled throughout the garden, startling countless Dao Pattern. Countless Dao Pattern lit up throughout the garden.
"That's about enough!" A soft shout, like a dragon's roar, echoed across the heavens, causing the very fabric of the universe to rumble and resonate with it.
Then, his body began to glow. In his Wheel Sea, the opposing forces of yin and yang, purity and turbidity, life and death intertwined and transformed into a state of Wuji before the beginning of chaos. Finally, as if the World Creation, Wuji was split open and transformed into Taiji, revealing a world in its initial stage.
The scriptures of the Sea of Wheels Scroll are now complete and flawless.
Within the Dao Palace, the chanting of scriptures flowed endlessly, and the essence of the Five Elements surged, transforming into Five Elements Deity. However, these Deity, upon appearing, quickly dissipated, transforming into nourishment for the self. Simultaneously, the past Past Self, chanting scriptures for this life; the present True Self, invincible under heaven; the future self became the Dao Self, Eternal Ancient Star imperishable!
The Dao Palace Scroll are now complete and flawless.
Subsequently, the Five Elements Dao Palace resonated with Zhou Tong's Wheel Sea, and immortal light spread to his limbs and bones, evolving into the Four Extremes of heaven and earth. In an instant, World Creation, and Zhou Tong's body merely trembled slightly, while all the Myriad Daos of heaven and earth groaned in agony.
The Four Extremes Scroll of Scripture is now complete and flawless.
The Wheel Sea represents the nascent world, the Dao Palace represents the stability of the world, and the Four Extremes represent exploration, endless exploration, and continuous expansion of the world.
These three represent Zhou Tong's Dao: the Wheel Sea is the beginning, the Dao Palace is the stability, and the Four Extremes are the expansion, endless and infinite!
Finally, the Great Dragon behind Zhou Tong lit up, raised its head and roared, shaking the Ninth Heaven!
The scriptures for the Dragon Transformation Scroll were also completely perfected at this time.
Subsequently, this Great Dragon, embodying the power of the Wheel Sea, the Dao Palace, and the Four Extremes, aims to connect with the Immortal Platform and step into a supreme realm.
During this process, countless runes were imprinted on Zhou Tong's body, causing his body to undergo an extremely terrifying transformation from physical body to divine power, and then to primordial spirit and the Great Dao.
This transformation is the difference between an ordinary Ninth Heaven Quasi-Emperor and Alternative Dao Attainment Quasi-Emperor. Alternative Dao Attainment cultivator is equivalent to being a whole realm higher than an ordinary Ninth Heaven Quasi-Emperor, and naturally, their cultivation level is unimaginably strong.
"This is... the connection to the Immortal Platform?" A look of shock flashed in Yan Ruyu's eyes. Reaching this point could already be considered as attaining enlightenment.
But then, her eyes dimmed slightly. She was still only at the sixth level of the Great Sage realm, while the "protector" she had chosen was about to attain enlightenment!
This gap almost drove Yan Ruyu to despair; she simply couldn't keep up with his pace in this Lifetime.
"Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!"
However, at this moment, six Imperial Dao Laws suddenly emerged from Zhou Tong's body. Although these Imperial Dao Laws were much dimmer than before, they now acted like six chains, locking the Great Dragon on Zhou Tong's body and preventing him from fully penetrating it.
At the same time, at the end of each chain, there was an Ancient Emperor Great Emperor. The Stone Emperor, the Lord of Reincarnation, the Light and Dark Supreme, the Heavenly Abandonment Supreme, the Lord of Divine Ruins, and the Azure Emperor, the six Ancient Emperor Great Emperor proudly in front of the dragon's head, preventing Zhou Tong from attaining enlightenment.
"Sure enough, after more than a hundred years, the remnants of the Supreme One have not been completely eliminated, and at this most critical moment, they have become a key obstacle to his path!" Yan Ruyu understood.
"Roar!"
A deafening dragon roar shook the heavens and earth. Zhou Tong's spine, radiating Great Dragon, roared wildly as it charged toward the Immortal Platform Secret Realm, attempting to break free from the constraints imposed by these supreme beings. However, the six illusory figures— the Stone Emperor, the Lord of Reincarnation, the Light and Dark Supreme, the Heavenly Abandonment Supreme, the Lord of Divine Ruins, Azure Emperor —also roared simultaneously.
"Thump!!"
The Hegemonic Bell above Zhou Tong's head trembled slightly, and the Profound Yellow Mother Qi and Chaos Qi descended, completely enveloping Zhou Tong's figure.
Fortunately, Hegemonic Bell intervened in time; otherwise, that roar alone would have likely caused the entire Divine Domain to collapse and explode. After all, it was a supreme-level battle cry, terrifying beyond measure, and unstoppable by anyone.
"Om!"
However, after just one impact, Zhou Tong's strange phenomena quickly vanished. All the Dao Pattern, all the strange phenomena, everything disappeared, as if everything before had been an illusion.
On the Dao Platform, only Zhou Tong remained, standing alone. The Hegemonic Bell hung above his head, surrounded by Chaos Qi and the Myriad Mother Qi, making his figure blurry, like Eternal Ancient Star and immortal Dao, or a body that Myriad Calamities Immortality.
"Thump!"
Finally, the Hegemonic Bell trembled slightly and returned to Zhou Tong's brow Immortal Platform.
"Did you fail to pass the test?" Yan Ruyu looked at Zhou Tong, somewhat nervously.
Zhou Tong shook his head, then nodded, and said, "You could call it a success, but it's also a failure! Strictly speaking, I was absolutely certain I would succeed this time, but I deliberately failed."
"Why deliberately fail?" Yan Ruyu asked, puzzled.
"The Forbidden Zone Supreme are waiting for me!" Zhou Tong chuckled. "If it were an ordinary cultivator, breaking through like this wouldn't be a problem, but I'm different. I'm definitely a thorn in the side of those Forbidden Zone Supreme! If I go all out to break through and remove the remnants of those Supreme Beings, the commotion will be too great and will definitely alert the Supreme Beings in the Forbidden Zone."
"So you deliberately failed?" Yan Ruyu frowned slightly. "Did you intend to make thorough preparations?"
"Preparation is definitely necessary, and I estimate that my opponents are not just those supreme beings in the Forbidden Zone!" Zhou Tong's eyes also showed some worry, because if he were to break through like this, his next opponents would definitely not be simple.
"No matter what, let's make some arrangements first! Otherwise, many unexpected things might happen when we break through the barrier!" Zhou Tong looked at his Hegemonic Bell. In the past hundred years, all the supreme Imperial Weapon had been completely refined.
Those Imperial Weapon were just fragments, and the Dao Pattern left behind were just remnants, making them much easier to refine; at least countless times easier than Zhou Tong refining the supreme traces within his body.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Zhou Tong has not taken the initiative to refine these Imperial Dao Laws for more than a hundred years.
If he were to take the initiative to refine these Imperial Dao Laws, it would only take him a few years to complete them; however, if he were to actively refine these Imperial Dao Laws, it would definitely trigger Heavenly Tribulation immediately, a heavenly Heavenly Tribulation of the seventh level of Quasi-Emperor.
At that time, it will be to guide those supreme beings. If a few supreme beings who have reached the Ultimate Sublimation emerge from the Forbidden Zone at this time, it will be more difficult for them to fight.
On the contrary, it would be much better not to refine these Supreme Dao Pattern, since their binding effect on him is negligible. He can easily use these Supreme Dao Pattern to suppress his advancement, and when the time is right, he can break through the barrier in one fell swoop, breaking through three tribulations in succession.
Refining the Dao Mark means you never know when your breakthrough will trigger Heavenly Tribulation; not refining the Dao Mark means you always have control over the Heavenly Tribulation. The choice is obvious, even to a fool.
After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Tong finally said, "You stay here for now. I need to go out and take care of some things, to resolve some potential problems first."
Yan Ruyu nodded.
