"Don't forget what happened when he first saw you not long ago!"
"If a Golden Immortal Lesser Shaman isn't worthy of an Ancestral Shaman, what about the Heavenly Tribulation Dao Venerable?"
Xuanming gave her a knowing smile.
Just then, Chu Xuan was also digesting his gains. He had swallowed a Heavenly Tribulation Dao Fruit at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, and the Merit he had absorbed accounted for the largest share.
His cultivation was rising rapidly.
Mid-stage Golden Immortal... late-stage Golden Immortal... Early Taiyi Golden Immortal... mid-stage... late-stage...
He was almost at Great Luo Golden Immortal.
Xuanming smiled and gestured toward Houtu.
At her words, Houtu blushed and turned away without saying more. Instead, she looked at Chu Xuan, who had just ascended to the heavens in a single step.
Her gaze was unusually grave.
"Becoming a Great Luo Golden Immortal in a single step is a good thing, but it's also a bad thing. The traces of Heavenly Tribulation on him are too strong. Unlike our other brothers, he can't conceal them with his own cultivation."
Meanwhile, Chu Xuan had no time to think about any of that. Or rather, he had thought of it too, but compared to becoming a Great Luo Golden Immortal, it was a minor concern.
At worst, he could just stay home for a while.
Thanks to the Ancestral Shamans' help, condensing part of the Heavenly Tribulation Law ahead of time had benefited Chu Xuan immensely.
The laws of the Primordial Wilderness poured into him, shaping a Dao Fruit and forcibly raising his strand of the Heavenly Tribulation Law to the Great Luo Golden Immortal level.
Though the law was too weak and had only reached the early stage, making it inferior to the other Ancestral Shamans', it had still allowed Chu Xuan to ascend in a single step.
On top of that, the Merit he had earned as the pioneer allowed him to improve his cultivation and smoothly refine the Heavenly Tribulation Law at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level.
Chu Xuan had his sights set on Great Luo Golden Immortal!
Mid-stage Golden Immortal... late-stage Golden Immortal... Early Taiyi Golden Immortal... mid-stage... late-stage...
"Peak Taiyi Golden Immortal!"
Chu Xuan rapidly used up his accumulated Merit, raising his cultivation to its limit. He was just one step away from Great Luo Golden Immortal.
"I have to take that step!"
Chu Xuan made up his mind.
Great Luo Golden Immortals were the top tier of the Primordial Wilderness for now. He hadn't been born into a good life when he crossed over, and he had no system to help him.
That was why taking this final step was so crucial to him.
On the Heavenly Tribulation Dao Fruit within Chu Xuan, still faintly illusory, all kinds of calamities and tribulations appeared.
Without hesitation,
he fully absorbed them.

The Heavenly Tribulation Law within him had already reached its limit. In an instant, it evolved completely.
He digested the law, reached its end, and formed a Dao Fruit!
A true Dao Fruit belonging to Chu Xuan himself suddenly took shape within him, transcending the physical world.
His True Body transformed, his blood surged, and his bloodline was refined.
Rumble—
Countless tribulations closed in around him in that instant. Wind, rain, thunder, fire, and lightning—the nine calamities and tribulations all gathered before him.
Without meaning to,
Chu Xuan's True Body, originally ten thousand zhang tall, began to expand again and again: one hundred thousand, one million, ten million, one hundred million...
Until it stretched on without end.
At a glance, it seemed as if countless tribulations were bearing down upon him.
Even Great Luo Golden Immortals of the same rank would be struck with fear.
Great Luo Golden Immortals grasped a complete law and had become like manifestations of the Great Dao.
And Chu Xuan's law was the most unusual of all: the Heavenly Tribulation Law.
At that moment, Chu Xuan was almost incomparably powerful.
His eyes opened and closed, as though a great tribulation had descended.
From the depths of the unseen future came the voices of countless living beings, some bowing their heads, others cursing him.
"So this is Great Luo Golden Immortal!"
Chu Xuan murmured.
A single Dao Word,
and he turned those countless living beings in the endless futures into tribulations, winding them around himself.
Even experts of the same rank couldn't see through the Great Dao Light Shadow that concealed him.
Just as when Chu Xuan had first met Houtu Ancestor Wu, this was the meaning of the saying: "The Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name!"
Only someone who caught up with him on the path of Heavenly Tribulation,
or someone whose cultivation surpassed Great Luo Golden Immortal and reached the Saint Realm, could see through it!
Heavenly Tribulation Dao Venerable!
From then on, Chu Xuan had finally reached the same starting line as the many Great Divine Ability Users.
He was still behind, but now he had the right to make his move.
Once the Heavenly Tribulation Great Dao flourished to its peak in the future, he could even bring tribulations down upon Great Luo Golden Immortals—or even Quasi-Saints!
And that was only what one poison scheme had brought him.
Chu Xuan's eyes gleamed.
No—he should say they sparkled!
After all, given his understanding of the Primordial Wilderness, this was clearly only the beginning. There were still countless opportunities to intervene in the future.
As for the curses of the countless beings in the future that he had sensed when he became the Heavenly Tribulation Dao Venerable?
What did that have to do with him?
Anything could hurt others. Just don't let it hurt yourself!
"Mm, I need to make the most of my talent for poison schemes!"
"Take the Heavenly Tribulation Authority, for example. There's clearly still room to develop it!"
Chu Xuan's mind raced with countless plans.
He could feel that his future was bright.
As Chu Xuan's eyes grew brighter and brighter, the other Ancestral Shamans watched him wake after his breakthrough. He didn't stop—instead, he seemed to be thinking about something.
They couldn't make heads or tails of it.
They naturally had no idea that Chu Xuan had just found the path best suited to him.
Without a cheat, he would be his own cheat.
Poison schemes were the greatest thing ever!
Zhurong looked at Chu Xuan, who seemed lost in thought, and felt inexplicably uneasy. He couldn't help turning to the other Ancestral Shamans and interrupting them.
"Since our little brother Chu Xuan has broken through,
"let's get moving!"
At Zhurong's sudden suggestion,
the Ancestral Shamans present nodded and prepared to set out.
They were clearly planning something.
At the same time, Chu Xuan, having completed his breakthrough, snapped out of his scheming at their words and stared blankly.
Little brother Chu Xuan? What kind of way was that to address him?
And they were setting out?
Chu Xuan's gaze shifted. He suddenly guessed what the Ancestral Shamans had in mind and couldn't help asking,
"Wait. Are you Ancestral Shamans planning to head to the Demon Heavenly Court?"
Chu Xuan didn't approve of being called "little brother," so he ignored Zhurong's remark.
