"Impossible!"
The Yuanshi Tianzun Venerable's pupils constricted sharply as he stared intently at the Green Clad Figure standing in the void, his face revealing an uncontrollable look of horror for the first time.
He saw it clearly.
When the Calamity Light Orb descended, Xuandu did not use any magical treasures or display any Divine Ability.
Even the remaining Martial Dao Divine Light completely dissipated under the erosion of the light orb.
But the moment the ball of light touched Xuandu's body, it vanished without a trace, like a mud ox sinking into the sea!
It was as if the Creation Tribulation, which contained the power of the early stage of the Zenith Heaven Second Heaven, was nothing more than a gentle breeze in front of Xuandu.
"To withstand the Creation Tribulation?"
Laozi stared intently at the Chaos Color Martial Dao Rune runes flowing around Xuandu:
"His physical body can withstand it? He... his physical body is comparable to that of Chaos Demon God?!"
Empress Nuwa's eyes also suddenly lit up, Creation Divine Stone in her hand trembled violently, almost slipping from her grasp:
" The Martial Dao Law... can actually forge such a terrifying physical body?"
The Sect Leader Tongtian was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter:
"Hahaha! Good disciple! What a magnificent Martial Dao True Body!"
On Lingyun Peak, Xuandu slowly raised his head.
His gaze swept over the five figures of Sage Golden Ao Island, and a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.
He could clearly sense the shock, fear, and even... murderous intent in everyone's eyes.
But so what?
The Absolute Defense of the North Sea Black Tortoise is the number one Defensive Divine Ability in the Great Wilderness.
Moreover, their Divine Ability will Become Stronger as their cultivation level increases.
Now that he has reached the Zenith Heaven, his Divine Ability powers and abilities have naturally increased.
This applies to both the Defensive Divine Ability of the North Sea Black Tortoise and the Chaos Light.
The Defensive Divine Ability of the North Sea Black Tortoise alone reached the level of the Third Heaven of the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.
Let alone the fact that the Creation Tribulation is only at the Second Heaven Early Stage.
Even a tribulation lightning at the peak of the Second Heaven wouldn't be able to break through his defenses!
"The first five tribulations were spent refining the Dao with lightning, tempering the Martial Dao Law."
Xuandu's mind stirred slightly, and he looked inward at himself.
Deep within the Purple Mansion, the Martial Dao Law Origin Rune had been completely stabilized, its Chaos Color growing ever deeper, and its surface covered with Dao Patterns patterns, faintly resembling the World Creation and the evolution of all laws.
Having undergone the tempering of the first five tribulations, the Martial Dao Law have approached perfection.
Once the final three tribulations are overcome, the Zenith Heaven Realm will be completely stabilized, and perhaps... even higher levels can be reached!
" Creation Tribulation?"
Xuandu slowly raised his eyes, his voice not loud, yet clearly resounding throughout the heavens and earth.
"However... it's merely Fuel for Body Tempering."
The Yuanshi Tianzun's face was ashen, and the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his sleeve trembled violently, almost losing control and blasting out:
"Arrogant!"
How could he not be furious?
The Creation Tribulation is a tribulation in which the Great Dao manifests the Calamity of Life Origin, specifically targeting the physical body and Divine Soul, and destroying the True Spirit Imprint.
Ordinary Zenith Heaven would be extremely cautious in the face of this calamity, needing to use their Natal Magic Treasure and Supreme Divine Ability to defend themselves layer by layer; the slightest carelessness would result in death and the dissipation of their cultivation.
But Xuandu... actually withstood it with his bare body, even saying that this tribulation was merely Fuel for Body Tempering?
This is an absolute and blatant insult!
"This child... has become a major threat."
Laozi took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his turbulent emotions, his eyes dark and brooding:
" Xuandu's physical body is so powerful. If he survives this tribulation... who in the Great Wilderness will be able to subdue him in the future?"
Empress Nuwa's eyes flickered, the Creation Divine Stone, as if deep in thought:
"Could it be a body tempered by martial arts?"
"Doesn't that mean this path... can lead to the Chaos Demon God Physique?"
Chaos Demon God!
The moment those four words were uttered, even Yuanshi and Laozi were shaken to their core.
The Chaos Demon God is an unparalleled being that existed even before the World Creation.
Xuandu can truly use this method to forge the Chaos Demon God Physique...
That Great Wilderness order will be completely overturned!
"We can't let him continue through this tribulation!"
The killing intent in Yuanshi's eyes surged, and he took a step forward, his body erupting with Jade Purity Immortal Light:
"This child must die!"
However!
"Buzz!"
An extremely sharp Sword Intent slashed down from the top of Golden Ao Island, blocking Yuanshi's path!
" Second Brother."
The Sect Leader Tongtian stood with his hands behind his back, the phantom of the Qingping Sword hovering behind him, his eyes flashing like lightning.
" The Great Dao Tribulation cannot be interfered with by External Force."
"You want to... violate the rules of the Great Dao?"
The sound was icy cold, the Sword Intent chilling.
Yuanshi froze, his face turning ashen.
How could he not know the ironclad principles of the Great Dao?
The Great Dao Tribulation is a test of the Great Dao for those who Transcendence. Any External Force interference will trigger a backlash from the Great Dao, amplifying the power of the tribulation.
At that time, not only Xuandu die, but those who intervene... will also be unable to escape the Great Dao Punishment!
" Tongtian! Are you really going to completely sever ties with us brothers for the sake of this child?!"
Yuanshi gritted his teeth and growled, his eyes blazing with golden flames.
The Sect Leader Tongtian's gaze remained calm:
"From the moment you invoked the Heavenly Dao Will to suppress and kill Xuandu... there has been no brotherhood between us."
As soon as he finished speaking, the illusory image of the Qingping Sword shone even brighter.
The phantom images of the Immortal-Slaying Four Swords slowly materialized behind Tongtian, standing in four directions and forming a terrifying sword formation that enveloped the heavens and the earth!
Although it had not been fully unleashed, the supreme killing power that only the Four Sages could break had already made Yuanshi's heart tremble.
"You..."
The Yuanshi energy stagnated, yet it ultimately dared not take another step forward.
He had experienced the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation firsthand.
It is no exaggeration that it cannot be broken without the Four Sages.
Moreover... Laozi 'Dao Foundation has been damaged, his cultivation has declined, and he can no longer exert his full combat power.
Even if he and Laozi joined forces, they might not be able to break through the sword formation set up by Tongtian.
That's enough.
Laozi spoke slowly, his voice hoarse:
"Behold... the seventh tribulation."
His gaze was dark and brooding as he stared intently at Xuandu in the void.
"The seventh tribulation... the Heart Demon Tribulation, which targets the Dao Heart, breaks obsessions, and destroys the foundation."
"Although this child possesses a powerful physical body, his Dao Heart... may not be without flaws."
"Buzz..."
The Chaos Thundercloud churned once more.
This time, it is no longer Law Manifestation, nor a convergence of origins.
Rather, it was a strange fluctuation that was invisible and intangible, yet struck directly at the soul, quietly spreading from the depths of the thunderclouds.
The Heart Demon Tribulation!
This tribulation does not attack the physical body or destroy magical treasures; it focuses solely on Slaying the Dao heart, breaking attachments, and destroying the foundation.
This is the most dangerous tribulation among Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin Tribulation!
Throughout history, countless brilliant and talented individuals have fallen victim to this calamity, their Dao Heart shattered, turning them into mere walking corpses.
"Inner demons..."
Xuandu slowly closed his eyes.
He clearly sensed a strange force silently seeping into his Purple Mansion, eroding the Martial Dao Law Origin Rune.
This force is invisible and intangible, yet it carries a sense of questioning.
" Xuandu ..."
In a daze, an old, hoarse voice resounded deep within my mind:
"You Seize a Thread of Life for Human Race, Establish Martial Dao, Human Race, and Gather Fortune... Have you ever considered whether Human Race... is truly worth it?"
The sound faded.
The scene before my eyes suddenly changed.
No longer Above Golden Ao Island, no longer shrouded in Chaos Thundercloud.
Rather... it was a hundred years ago.
On the East Sea Coast, Newborn Human Race.
The Demon Race Army pressed in, their Yao Qi soaring to the heavens, their murderous intent surging like a tide.
The Newborn Human Race cried out, but were easily torn apart, devoured, and drained of their life essence by the demon race, leaving no trace of their remains.
Blood stained the earth red, and wails echoed across the land.
Xuandu stood in the void, his green robes fluttering, his eyes cold.
He wanted to make a move.
However, his body seemed to be bound by invisible shackles, unable to move.
They could only watch helplessly as those Newborn Human Race died miserably under the claws of the demon race.
