Ch. 551Proving Yin-Yang Within

Wang Wu used the Yin-Yang Two Energies around Divine Lord Tianshu to establish a third fourth-rank Foundation Establishment Array and grow stronger as Tianshu attempted to break through to Grand Unity. The Twelve Grand Unity suppressed Tianshu, who destroyed himself in retaliation and shattered the Cultivation World, leaving Wang Wu unconscious.

  • Wang Wu entered the middle orbit of Tianshu’s impact structure and used the Yin-Yang Two Energies to establish a third fourth-rank Foundation Establishment Array.

  • Tianshu self-destructed to destroy the Cultivation World, shattering it into fragments and leaving Wang Wu unconscious.

Ch. 552Spatial Rift

He navigated a distorted realm of Spatial Rifts, found a relatively stable place, and repaired his three Five Aggregates formations, leaving him fully recovered internally.

Ch. 554The Last Stubbornness of Three Calamity Resistance

Wang Wu repeatedly endured the terrifying sword qi in the suspected Tomb of the Grand Unity and discovered that Three Calamity evolution could absorb it, gradually increasing his resistance. He learned that thirty thousand years had passed while he was unconscious and that Frost Lord, the Four Clowns, and Mother-in-law had all fallen asleep after saving him, then resumed grinding resistance.

  • Wang Wu repaired and evolved his Creation Immortal Body, spending 6 billion spirit energy before returning to the suspected Tomb of the Grand Unity to face the sword qi again.

  • Mother-in-law explained that Frost Lord and the Four Clowns had exhausted themselves to revive Wang Wu, then fell asleep again after speaking with him.
  • Wang Wu resolved to keep absorbing the sword qi, finding that each 0.1 increase in resistance let him withstand one more sword qi.

Ch. 555Heaven and Earth Shield

Wang Wu perfected his Three Calamities resistance inside the Tomb of the Grand Unity and evolved the Heaven and Earth Shield, gaining immense defenses, a million years of lifespan, and a path toward fifth-rank Foundation Establishment Arrays. He left the Tomb and found that his new shield made gathering Chaos Spirit Energy far easier.

  • Wang Wu endured centuries of terrifying sword energies until he reached 9999.9999 Three Calamities resistance, then stepped into their strike and completed Three Calamity Evolution.
  • Wang Wu used his three Foundation Establishment Arrays and their stored spirit energy to evolve a palm-sized Heaven and Earth Shield that deflected terrifying sword energies with ease.
  • Wang Wu retreated when the Tomb of the Grand Unity fell silent and his spirit energy was depleted, then discovered his Arrays could now advance toward the fifth rank and his lifespan had increased by one million years.
  • Wang Wu's Health Points rose to an estimated ten billion, and his First Sequence bloodline evolution surpassed Ancient Bear Grand Unity's, though he paused further changes to prepare carefully.
  • Wang Wu began gathering Chaos Spirit Energy with the Heaven and Earth Shield, which also carried the radiance of Yin-Yang Two Energies.

Ch. 556Little Steps Grand Unity

Wang Wu drained Spatial Rifts, created a temporary Great Desolation Sin Prison Tower, and used its Yin-Yang Two Energies to upgrade the Five Aggregates Kitten Formation to Tier Five.

  • Wang Wu halted two array upgrades and spent nearly all his resources to raise the Five Aggregates Kitten Formation to Tier Five, bringing him close to Half-step Grand Unity before the tower collapsed.
  • He demonstrated his new power by smoothing over a huge Spatial Rift and reopening it, then decided the former Cultivation World's multidimensional state had been artificially created.

He began breaking through the cold-qi layers to escape before the tribesmen started refining pills.

  • Wang Wu hid his true body inside 128 layers of Supreme Hairs, allowing the Vast Nether Tribesmen to appraise him as a level 27 bear-clan Taiyi and sort him for pill refinement.

  • Wang Wu immediately began a second assault, breaking through fifteen more layers and directing most of the cold qi into the Third Sequence’s Greatest Common Divisor Pill.
  • Wang Wu continued the attack with the Second Sequence’s Little Cat Formation supporting the Third Sequence, using his abundant spiritual energy to press toward escape.

Ch. 560Boundless Longevity

Wang Wu infiltrated the Vast Nether Tribesmen’s pill furnace, survived its slaughter of millions of captives, and watched them refine eighty-one Longevity Immortal Pills for their sleeping Cold God. After discovering the Cold God’s mountain-like form, he fled when a stranger called for help behind him.

  • Wang Wu recalled Supreme Hairs to absorb forty layers of Supreme Vast Nether Cold Qi, then stayed behind to investigate the tribesmen’s pill refining.
  • The pill furnace thawed its captives, and a many-headed insect emerged from a dark passage and killed them with its weeping cries, sparing Wang Wu.

  • Wang Wu followed the tribesmen out and found the sleeping Cold God beneath the mountain of ice spikes, then wondered whether its weakness explained the cycle of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms.
  • When a strange voice called for help, Wang Wu used eight Supreme Hairs as substitutes while his true self fled tens of thousands of miles away.

Ch. 561Chaos Grand Unity

Wang Wu stayed inside the Cold Realm, secretly cultivating his resistance to Vast Nether Cold Qi while the imprisoned Longevity Worm urged him to help it escape. After exploiting the Cold God’s periodic cycle to gather more cold qi, Wang Wu slipped away from the worm again, though it left another immortal talisman on him.

  • Wang Wu escaped when the Myriad Longevity Immortal Pill was completed, but the Longevity Worm placed another miniature immortal talisman on him and promised to wait.

Ch. 562The Way of Compassion

Their first exchange ended with Bai Yu revealing his personal Dao of Compassion, leaving their battle poised to escalate.
