Achieving True Immortal, Severing Ties

Billions of lightning bolts raged across the starry sky like a violent storm.

When the Immortal-Slaying Guillotine reappeared, the entire starry sky seemed to change color in response.

It shimmered with a cold, piercing light, like a blade from another dimension capable of severing all obstacles.

Mysterious runes and patterns flowed across the blade, every detail exuding endless terror and majesty.

The moment the guillotine swung, the starry sky seemed to be split in two; a massive rift tore through the void, as if intending to cleave the entire universe in half.

That terrifying power filled Su Li with despair. He resisted with all his might, yet he was still struck and severely wounded by the guillotine.

Blood stained his clothes, and his body swayed precariously in the void.

In that moment, he felt unprecedented despair and helplessness, as if the entire world had collapsed.

Even though he was an Emperor reincarnate who had experienced countless hardships and pains in his past life, those had been supported by his Immortal-level cultivation.

Now, in a mortal body, he had to resist a guillotine capable of slaying True Immortals; while it could not kill him, it would certainly leave him gravely injured.

Yet, at his most desperate moment, the Immortal artifacts bestowed upon him by Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation finally took effect.

The three mysterious Immortal artifacts contained immense power and energy.

Under Su Li's will, the artifacts erupted with brilliant light, forming a sturdy shield that blocked the guillotine's attack.

With the help of the Immortal artifacts, Su Li finally survived this tribulation.

Bathed in blood, Su Li stood tenaciously beneath the tribulation light, his eyes filled with resolve and determination.

At this moment, Su Li was nearly spent; his skin was cracked like dry wood, his eye sockets sunken and dull, as if he might collapse at any second.

However, he showed no intention of retreating. He gritted his teeth, using every ounce of his remaining strength to resist the terrifying Immortal Ascension lightning tribulation.

Deep in the starry sky, Su Li's Immortal Ascension tribulation had already lasted for a full half-month.

During these fifteen days, the entire starry sky seemed to be shrouded by this tribulation, terrifying and mysterious.

Every flash of lightning was like the most powerful force in heaven and earth running wild, as if trying to tear the starry sky into fragments.

Wherever the lightning passed, countless withered star fields and ruined realms were reduced to nothingness in an instant.

Those once-glorious Ancient Realms were shattered and ceased to exist under the ravages of the lightning.

Every strike of lightning was like the most ruthless judgment of heaven and earth, thoroughly destroying everything that stood in the way of the path to immortality.

Yet, in the midst of such a desperate situation, Su Li displayed incredible tenacity and perseverance.

He did not choose to give up; he chose to persist. He understood that this tribulation was a necessary path to his immortality, and only by being baptized by it could he truly transform into an Immortal.

His body trembled under the onslaught of the lightning, but his gaze remained firm and powerful. He gritted his teeth, enduring the endless pain and torment.

Each strike of lightning felt like it was honing his will and perseverance, making him tougher and stronger.

During this process, Su Li's body was also undergoing constant changes.

His aura grew increasingly powerful, and mysterious light began to radiate from around his body—a symbol of the power of immortality and proof of his continuous growth and transformation within the tribulation.

Finally, when the last bolt of lightning dissipated into the starry sky, Su Li's body completely collapsed.

However, on the verge of this collapse, a powerful aura erupted from within him. As if supported by a mysterious force, his body regained new vitality beneath the tribulation light, as if he had been reborn and had truly transformed into an Immortal.

As the final bolt of lightning vanished, the starry sky returned to tranquility.

Yet, within this silence, a brand-new, powerful aura gradually rose.

It was Su Li's aura; after the half-month baptism of the tribulation, he had completed the transformation from the human realm to the Immortal realm.

Brilliant Immortal light erupted from around his body, like the rising sun, illuminating the entire universe.

Within that Immortal light lay endless vitality, as if all the life force in existence had gathered upon him. His aura became deep and distant, as unfathomable as the starry sea.

Under the radiance of this Immortal light, Su Li's appearance underwent a earth-shattering change.

His posture became more upright, his features more handsome, and his eyes shimmered with the light of wisdom and depth.

He was no longer the youth he once was, but a true powerhouse of the Immortal path.

Su Li's strength and talent now towered above the prodigies of his generation.

His back became the goal they would spend their entire lives chasing.

Prodigies from all races looked through the brilliant Immortal light in the depths of the universe at Su Li's back, their hearts filled with awe and longing.

However, for Su Li, this was only the beginning.

He knew that the path to immortality had no end; the Land of Heaven and the Eerie Plateau were his true pursuits!

Only through constant pursuit and progress would he continue to move forward, challenging his limits and seeking higher realms and greater power.

At this moment, Su Li seemed to have merged with the entire universe; his existence was now a part of the cosmos.

Su Li stood at the edge of the starry sky, took a deep breath, and prepared to unleash that peerless strike.

At this moment, his eyes flashed with firm and resolute light, as if he had made a major decision.

As the Immortal power surged within him, an incomparably powerful force condensed in his body.

He slowly raised his palm, within which brilliant radiance gathered like a dazzling star. That light contained endless life and destructive power, as if it could tear through all obstacles.

As Su Li's palm swung down abruptly, that brilliant radiance erupted in an instant, illuminating the entire universe.

Contained within that light was an indescribable power, as if it could shatter everything and rewrite all things.

At this moment, the will of the universe seemed to sense the terror of this power; it let out a mournful cry, a sound of incomparable sorrow and despair, as if lamenting its own fate.

As the radiance dissipated, Su Li's connection to this universe was also completely severed.

He cut off his connection to this universe because he knew that this universe, and even this ancient history, were merely projections cast by his Forbidden Great Law, not the true ancient history.

He made this decision in order to avoid the repercussions of transcending ancient history.

He understood that only by severing his ties with the universe could he truly transcend in the future and pursue higher realms and even greater power.

At this moment, Su Li seemed to have been completely cut off from the entire universe.

He stood there, lonely and resolute, his figure appearing exceptionally tall and majestic against the starry sky, like an invincible powerhouse of the Immortal Dao.

And all of this was merely the beginning.
