Golden Immortal Tribulation

This Great Luo Attainment, which had nearly overturned the entire Primordial Wilderness, lasted a full year. Throughout that year, the Heavenly Dao iterated and evolved at an astonishing pace, making cultivation completely impossible.

Fang Xun could only foolishly count "stars" for an entire year.

"It's finally over..." Fang Xun felt as though he had been pardoned, but when he once more used the peculiarities of the Heavenly Immortal realm to comprehend the Heavenly Dao, he was still frightened.

Innate Divine Saints were nurtured by the Heavenly Dao. Now that they had attained Da Luo, they could be considered "complete." Their perfected Dao had in turn completed the Heavenly Dao itself, making it even more perfect.

"The Dao of Great Luo Supremes has become part of the Heavenly Dao. Doesn't that mean Great Luo Supremes wield a portion of the Heavenly Dao's authority?"

"Then if a Great Luo Supreme decides to alter the traces of the Great Dao they left within the Heavenly Dao..."

"What are Taiyi and Golden Immortals beneath Da Luo? What are even the immortals below Golden Immortals?"

Fang Xun's breathing stopped as he inexplicably sensed an immense terror.

Were all beneath Da Luo merely ants?

Meng Qi: "Since ancient times, the will of Heaven has been too lofty to question; the Sea of Suffering is boundless, and the Dao serves as the boat."

Having gone through the same experience, Meng Qi understood Fang Xun's state of mind better than anyone.

Fang Xun: "Perhaps that is what Golden Immortals and Taiyi Golden Immortals truly represent."

Fang Xun quickly regained his composure and gained a deeper understanding of the realms above Heavenly Immortals.

The Golden Immortal Dao Fruit did not merely grant Golden Immortal immortality. That was only an incidental and least significant benefit.

Its greatest significance was that, beyond the Heavenly Dao, one could possess a "Pure Land," a "Dao Domain" of one's own, gaining a moment of "clarity" and "tranquility."

One would no longer be casually altered like a drawing in the sand. In this vast Primordial Wilderness, one would possess a mark that truly belonged to oneself.

The Golden Immortal Dao Fruit was the only boat by which they could escape the Sea of Suffering.

Fang Xun keenly sensed his realm tremble slightly. He was about to enter another realm.

"Golden Immortal... achieved."

The Dao Ancestor's Sermon truly was the greatest opportunity for the immortals of the Primordial Wilderness. Leaving aside the Three Thousand Great Luo, who knew how many immortals throughout the Primordial Wilderness would advance because of this opportunity.

Yet Fang Xun soon raised his head toward the sky. Watching the clouds gradually gather, he frowned slightly.

"Golden Immortal Tribulation."

He exhaled softly. The true body of the Myriad Heavens Dao Tree manifested, and he looked toward the considerable number of Low-grade Innate Spiritual Roots and the vast quantity of ancient spiritual medicines on Penglai Immortal Island.

The Golden Immortal Dao Fruit was the manifestation of an immortal's own Dao. Personal completeness was essential.

Therefore, Fang Xun urgently needed the source essence of Innate Spiritual Roots to make up for his own deficiencies, allowing the source essence of the Myriad Heavens Dao Tree to advance further and become more complete.

At this time, the Divine Strike state had quietly faded away.

Because of the Chat Group, he could not directly reveal his true Dao Fruit in its entirety before the Golden Immortal Tribulation. Fortunately, he had chosen Divine Strike from the beginning, so the impact was minimal.

The defining trait of his Dao Fruit was the inclusiveness of a World Tree and a Myriad Dao Tree. Its defining quality was that it could contain anything...

"Come!" Fang Xun drew one-tenth of the source essence from each Low-grade Innate Spiritual Root, as well as one-tenth of the medicinal source essence from each Innate Spiritual Medicine.

"Help me break through, and in the future, I will help you evolve as well." Fang Xun conveyed his will to the scant spiritual awareness within those spiritual medicines.

Because Fang Xun's true body was also a plant-type spiritual root, the resistance of these Innate Spiritual Roots was very weak, and each offered up one-tenth of its source essence.

It was only one-tenth, but there were simply too many Low-grade Innate Spiritual Roots!

In an instant, all of Penglai Immortal Island was bathed in a rich fragrance. The medicinal source essence transformed into a river and poured over Fang Xun.

"Hah!" Fang Xun took a deep breath. The Myriad Heavens Dao Tree swayed in the breeze, accepting everything without refusal and absorbing and refining it all.

In but an instant, the source essence of the Myriad Heavens Dao Tree greatly advanced. Countless lights flickered before returning to stillness.

At that moment, Fang Xun's aura finally broke through that boundary and fully entered the Golden Immortal realm!

Light flickered across the body of the Myriad Heavens Dao Tree, then gathered toward its largest branch, gradually condensing into a fruit.

This fruit, which had skipped the flowering stage, was naturally not a fruit in the true sense. It was the manifestation of the Myriad Heavens Dao Tree's source essence and Great Dao!

Golden Immortal Dao Fruit!

Boom—

Countless tribulation clouds appeared out of nowhere and gradually spread, layer upon layer, their range impossible to measure. The clouds alone numbered One Yuan.

The vast, nameless Heavenly Dao Pressure was endless, all of it pressing down upon Fang Xun's Golden Immortal Dao Fruit.

"This is already the strongest Golden Immortal Tribulation..." Fang Xun clearly sensed the Heavenly Dao Pressure and saw streaks of Golden Light flashing amid the tribulation clouds.

Boom!

A golden bolt of Thunder struck without warning, seeking to crush Fang Xun's Golden Immortal Dao Fruit.

"Yin Yang Creation Divine Light!"

Fang Xun formed hand seals with both hands. Black-and-white Yin-Yang Fish emerged around him, and the divine light surged like a sea, blocking the heavenly tribulation!

He was, after all, Nuwa's disciple. It was perfectly normal for him to know some Yin-Yang Creation divine abilities!

Nuwa had spent ten thousand years in the River of Time creating the Xuan Su Scripture. It contained countless divine abilities and techniques, the most distinctive of which were naturally the Creation divine abilities of her lineage.

And after Nuwa became a Great Luo Supreme, these divine abilities underwent another transformation. Other than the Dao Ancestor's direct teachings and certain things that could not see the light of day, they should rank among the strongest divine abilities in the current Primordial Wilderness!

Before such divine abilities, he refused to believe this Golden Immortal Tribulation could truly trouble him.

Rumble!

The Golden Immortal Tribulation was fierce, but Nuwa's inheritance was powerful as well. Fang Xun withstood every strike, on the verge of receiving the Heavenly Dao's acknowledgment!

Most crucially, when facing the Golden Immortal Tribulation, Fang Xun had used only Creation divine abilities from his teacher Nuwa. He had concealed all of his own methods thoroughly.

Yet at this very moment, within the Purple Sky Palace, the two who had not immersed themselves in the Dao experienced an almost imperceptible emotional fluctuation at the same time.

Nuwa naturally sensed that her disciple had obtained the immortal Golden Immortal Dao Fruit, and delight appeared on her face.

Yet Nuwa, who had also been listening to the Dao Ancestor's Sermon, likewise noticed the faint emotional fluctuation from Hong Jun across from her. This was highly unusual.

And in Nuwa's eyes, even more unusual was the future that was about to descend upon her disciple!

The Golden Immortal Tribulation would escalate into the Purple Firmament Heavenly Tribulation. Xuansu would have no choice but to fight in a stronger form, exhausting every method at his disposal, yet he would still be struck half to death by that Purple Firmament Heavenly Tribulation...

The future had changed, because the Dao Ancestor had formed an intention!

Nuwa's emotions abruptly surged greatly. She believed the Dao Ancestor would certainly sense it!

This was her stance. She would not accept such a future!

The Dao Ancestor continued maintaining the rhythm of his sermon, his words carrying the authority of Heaven as he expounded the mysteries of the Great Luo Dao Realm.

But within time, at the instant when Nuwa's advancement to Da Luo caused the two supreme beings to meet in the River of Time.

Hong Jun and Nuwa exchanged a glance.
