The Dou Zun with the Most Gold Content in History!

ROAR—

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the enormous black dragon body blotted out the entire sky. A terrifying sound wave erupted from its mouth as it faced the ninth and most powerful lightning tribulation.

The Sea of Lightning, formed entirely of lightning bolts, resembled a massive waterfall sweeping down from the heavens and across the land, rolling forth until it covered the sky and earth. Thunder rumbled amid the low clouds, making everyone's ears buzz. At times, lightning tore through the pitch-black sky with its dazzling crimson radiance. Branch-like streaks of lightning hung overhead, each flash like a fiery serpent breaking through the darkness and ripping open the heavens, followed by deafening thunder that shook the mountains and earth without end.

The enormous Black Dragon coiled above the sea of lightning, its jaws stretched wide as it bared its fangs and claws, battling the lightning head-on.

The Black Dragon was majestic and imposing, its massive body covered in crackling bolts of immensely powerful lightning. Even so, though it was riddled with wounds, it did not immediately dissipate. Instead, it continued to roll its colossal body through the sea of lightning. Every turn released a violent, dense, mountain-toppling aura that tugged at everyone's heartstrings.

Everyone stared intently at the clash between the Black Dragon and the lightning, unable to tell which side held the advantage.

Amid wave after wave of lightning and thunder, accompanied by earth-shaking dragon might, the Sea of Lightning gradually began to dissipate. The enormous Black Dragon then viciously stomped down with its dragon claw, crushing the remaining traces of lightning.

With that single stomp, every mountain peak in the surrounding area suffered disaster.

Not only that, all the elders and supreme elders who had been cultivating in seclusion within the Soul Realm were alarmed and emerged from their retreats.

The moment they emerged, they flashed into the sky and hovered in the air. Their expressions changed at the sight of the enormous spectacle. At first, they thought some powerful faction had attacked the Soul Realm and caused this upheaval. Only after asking about the situation did they learn that the Young Clan Leader was breaking through to Dou Venerate.

This was supposed to be a breakthrough to Dou Venerate? Even a breakthrough to Dou Saint would not have been this exaggerated!

ROAR!

Another dragon roar rang out. The Black Dragon erupted with brilliant light, and an immense aura spread outward like a tide!

The ninth bolt of lightning had been neutralized.

Then, upon the forehead of the winding, coiled Giant Dragon, a white-clad figure slowly emerged. That immense aura was precisely what radiated from his body.

Dou Venerate!

Not even Hun Tiandi's barrier could block the aura belonging to a Dou Venerate. Everyone felt its vast intensity.

"H-He has officially broken through to Dou Venerate!"

At that moment, Nihility Devouring Flame's mouth hung wide open, unable to close. He stared blankly at the elegant figure in white atop the Giant Dragon. The figure looked so immaculate, as though he had never been harmed at all, leaving Nihility Devouring Flame utterly shaken.

"Tiandi, you have an extraordinary son. Even Heavenly Jealousy Red Lightning could not stop his advance. Your son has become the first person to survive beneath Heavenly Jealousy Red Lightning!"

"Haha, that's my son! Of course he has such ability!" Hun Tiandi laughed heartily, brimming with excitement.

"Dou Di... he will definitely attain it!"

Having passed through the Heavenly Jealousy Red Lightning, Hun Tianchen suddenly sensed the Dou Qi within his body beginning to boil. A massive surge of energy actually forced his cultivation to break through on its own!

In just an instant, that enormous energy raised Hun Tianchen to Eight-Star Dou Venerate!

But it did not stop there. Soon, it pushed him through to Nine-Star Dou Venerate... and then Nine Revolutions Dou Venerate!

Beyond Nine Revolutions Dou Venerate, one already had one foot in the Saint realm—otherwise known as Half Saint!

Seeing this, Hun Tiandi frowned slightly.

"Tianchen, you must resist the temptation brought by higher cultivation. If you do not suppress it, you will be unable to advance any further for years."

As though he had heard Hun Tiandi's voice, Hun Tianchen began forcefully suppressing his cultivation, pushing it down from Nine Revolutions Dou Venerate to One-Star Dou Venerate.

Nihility Devouring Flame froze for a moment before saying, "Suppressing it that harshly? Isn't he afraid of backlash?"

Then his cultivation suddenly jumped from One-Star Dou Venerate back to Eight-Star Dou Venerate. After that, it continued fluctuating between Eight-Star Dou Venerate and Two-Star Dou Venerate.

"He can reach Nine Revolutions Dou Venerate in an instant. Is that also a benefit of surviving Heavenly Jealousy Red Lightning?" Hun Tiandi looked toward Nihility Devouring Flame.

Nihility Devouring Flame shook his head.

"I don't know. No one has ever survived Heavenly Jealousy Red Lightning before."

Hun Tianchen's cultivation rose and fell continuously, and the sensation made him feel incomparably miserable.

In the end, he steeled his heart, gritted his teeth, and shouted, "Get down there obediently!"

Using all his strength, Hun Tianchen actually stabilized his cultivation at Two-Star Dou Venerate!

With that suppression, the Dou Qi within his body began to undergo some kind of transformation. Although its total quantity did not increase, the quality of every strand of Dou Qi improved.

In particular, the Saint Qi and Demonic Qi brought by the Sacred Body Demonic Heart, along with the Source Qi hidden in the deepest part of his body, all fused together under this suppression and became an entirely new kind of Dou Qi.

Hun Tianchen did not know that this action had destined him to become a Dou Di in this lifetime—perhaps even reach a realm beyond that.

Everything had ended. Feeling the changes in the Dou Qi within his body, Hun Tianchen laughed wildly in his heart.

"The breakthrough is over." Hun Tiandi also sensed the changes in Hun Tianchen. With a casual wave of his hand, he removed the barrier he had set up.

The Black Dragon swung its enormous body and hovered in the sky directly above the Soul Realm.

Above the Hun Clan stood the Black Dragon, and the white-clad figure standing atop the Black Dragon's head like a sovereign ruling the world was Hun Tianchen!

Hun Tianchen stood with his hands behind his back, his feet planted upon the Soul Dragon. His previously closed eyes suddenly opened, one golden and one dark. An overwhelmingly dense aura radiated from them as he gazed deeply at the dense crowd below.

They were all members of the Hun Clan, awakened by the commotion caused by his breakthrough.

Among them, Hun Miesheng looked at the figure descending like a monarch, his heart surging. Unable to restrain himself, he dropped to one knee before Hun Tianchen, becoming the first to set an excellent example.

"Welcome, Young Clan Leader, out of seclusion!"

Hun Miesheng's voice rang through heaven and earth. Then, the countless figures all copied Hun Miesheng's movements exactly, facing Hun Tianchen and dropping to one knee as they shouted in unison with utmost respect.

"Welcome the Young Clan Leader out of seclusion!"

The united voices of those innumerable people resounded throughout the entire Soul Realm. The Soul Realm had never known such a lively occasion...

Only the elders with Half Saint cultivation or above did not kneel on one knee. They merely cupped their fists, smiling broadly as they offered their congratulations.

Hearing those voices, Hun Tianchen was greatly satisfied. Yet his expression remained as calm and indifferent as ever, as though the scene of breaking through to Dou Zun just now had nothing to do with him.

But his current strength was more than ten times greater than before!

With every breath, every inhale and exhale, he could actually slow the heartbeat of Hun Clan members!

Such oppressive force was undoubtedly the most formidable Dou Zun in history.

Feeling the worship of the entire Hun Clan, Hun Tianchen suddenly sensed his Luck Force continuously increasing...

It was the entirety of the Hun Clan's remaining Luck Force, all gathering upon him!

"I will rewrite the fate of the Hun Clan." Hun Tianchen narrowed his eyes, swept his sleeve, and slowly said, "Rise."
