Mythology Era, Self-Creating the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art

This was the end of the Mythology Era, and the entire universe was ushering in a rare golden age once again.

Numerous peerless talents were born, stepping onto the ancient starry sky road one after another.

In the Chaos Sea at the cosmic frontier wasteland, Li Ming opened his eyes. His gaze was incomparably bright, resembling a divine sword tearing through the firmament.

In an instant, he shattered the shackles of heaven and earth, broke through the constraints of his body, and triggered the dao-sealing heavenly tribulation.

The terrifyingly formidable lightning resounded through the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, startling all living beings.

Numerous powerhouses turned their gazes toward the cosmic frontier wasteland, activating their heaven-piercing dharma eyes to observe carefully.

I never expected someone to attempt to dao-seal and become a venerable so quickly in this golden age.

It seems this golden age is coming to an end!

Countless sacred grounds and aristocratic families, along with those white-haired and elderly antiques, sighed as they spoke.

Even the dark supremes in the forbidden zones were startled. Their gazes flickered as they closely stared at that figure in the cosmic frontier wasteland.

The terrifyingly formidable lightning was so violent that it far surpassed that of ordinary dao-sealing practitioners.

Li Ming was a transmigrator who never expected to cross over into the Shrouding the Heavens world just like that, and moreover, during the late Mythology Era, close to the end of the era.

Logically speaking, this era should have been the most glorious time for Emperor Zun, yet Li Ming discovered that at this moment, only the legendary eight heavenly venerables existed, with no sign of Emperor Zun yet.

Where was Emperor Zun?

Li Ming certainly knew how dangerous this world was.

The hostility of all spirits in heaven and earth toward the human race, the dark supremes who might appear at any time to devour all living beings of the universe, and the even more terrifying dark strangeness from beyond the world originating from the eerie plateau.

Ever since he crossed over into this world, he had always acted with extreme caution.

Because he was far too weak; any casual powerhouse could easily take his little life.

This era was a golden age that birthed so many peerless geniuses, yet the one who laughed last turned out to be Li Ming.

Now, he had finally taken the lead in triggering the dao-sealing heavenly tribulation.

As long as he survived the heavenly tribulation, he would be a dao-sealing practitioner of the Mythology Era.

As long as he dao-sealed to become a venerable and managed to survive, he would possess the preliminary strength to protect himself.

As long as he steadfastly walked the red dust immortal path step by step, he firmly believed he could travel even further.

After all, if an old dog that had lived for countless years could become a quasi-immortal emperor, could Li Ming, no matter how inferior he was, possibly be worse than a dog?

Rumble.

The intensely violent heavenly tribulation was so terrifying that a single bolt of lightning could destroy an entire starry river.

Li Ming was like a fish in water amidst the heavenly tribulation. Even though the tribulation was extremely violent, he remained full of confidence.

His heavenly tribulation was very special, filled everywhere with bloody light that dyed the Chaos Sea red.

The figures of hundreds of thousands of people lingered around his body, as if they were undergoing the tribulation together, appearing extremely eerie.

That terrifyingly formidable heavenly tribulation was much stronger than that of ordinary dao-sealing practitioners.

It looked exceptionally tragic, and everything evolved within the lightning carried a bloody hue, as if a sea of blood were flowing and countless strands of chaos were dyed red.

The phantom images of various bloody immortal spirits appeared, shattering the heavens and splitting the earth.

The terrifyingly formidable heavenly tribulation seemed intent on completely erasing Li Ming, as if unwilling to let him succeed in crossing the tribulation.

These hundreds of thousands of figures shone with dazzling brilliance, frantically resisting the heavenly tribulation.

Each of the hundreds of thousands of figures was as blazing and intense as the sun.

The figures of these people were very eerie, consisting of both men and women, young and old, belonging to different eras, and some even directly took the appearance of skeletons.

It was simply like a group of fierce ghosts undergoing tribulation.

There were battered and broken old men who seemed to have just crawled out of graves, carrying an aura of decay.

There were also some young contemporary proud talents, and someone even recognized that they were the descendants of certain powerful cosmic clans, or even forbidden zone heirs.

If anyone else had transmigrated into this era, they would definitely find all of this exceptionally familiar.

Yes, because when Li Ming first transmigrated to this era, he was merely an ordinary mortal.

His cultivation aptitude was extremely poor, and those sacred grounds simply did not want him.

He relied on an elderly rogue cultivator who had taken him in to impart a tattered scripture to him, forcing his way up through sheer cultivation.

He did not abandon himself to despair; he knew that in the future, a genius with super-strong comprehension like the Ruthless Empress would be born.

Even with a very poor physique, one could still defy the heavens and rise upward.

Thus, based on the descriptions in the original text, he frantically deduced the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art.

Yes, just like the Ruthless Empress, he would self-create his own Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art.

At the very beginning, it was indeed extremely difficult.

However, relying on his golden finger—a mysterious bronze mirror—he successfully rose to prominence.

Not only did he use this bronze mirror to conceal his aura, but he also blocked those mysterious curses, frantically digging up graves and robbing tombs to search for treasures and tombs of those possessing special physiques.

At first, he indeed wasted the corpses of many special physiques, but after wasting enough of them, he finally figured out some tricks.

Coupled with the rare materials obtained while grave-robbing, he continuously improved his own body. His body underwent continuous evolution and transformation, and his strength grew stronger and stronger.

How this mysterious bronze mirror came into his body was something he did not know clearly.

In any case, he knew that this bronze mirror had the mysterious effect of concealing his aura and preventing him from being cursed to death.

Almost no one could deduce him, nor could they curse him.

This was simply a sharp weapon for grave-robbing, tomb-robbing, killing people, and setting fires.

Relying on grave-robbing, he not only obtained those rare heavenly treasures that improved physiques, but also acquired the origins of various special physiques, and even obtained several complete heavenly venerable and supreme scriptures, let alone sage scriptures, of which he had dozens.

With the aid of these scriptures, he frantically deduced the secrets of the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art, and actually managed to create his own Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art.

Yes, starting from the sage realm, he had deduced his very own Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art.

Following that, it was as if he had activated a cheat, seemingly receiving the blessings of heaven. His cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds all the way, and he actually evolved into an acquired Chaotic Body.

Although it was not a flawless Chaotic Body, but rather a defective version, this was already sufficient.

The Ruthless Empress in the original text also had a defective version of the Chaotic Body when she dao-sealed to become an emperor; she only transformed into a flawless Chaotic Body when undergoing her second lifetime transformation.

Therefore, Li Ming was already very satisfied to have reached this level of cultivation relying on the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art he created himself.

After all, coming all the way from a weak mortal physique to the present, he had truly shattered his own humble destiny.

The heavenly tribulation he encountered while crossing it now was so terrifying that if an ordinary dao-sealing practitioner were here, they would likely have turned to ashes long ago.

Within his terrifyingly formidable heavenly tribulation, the phantom images of numerous immortal spirits appeared, along with the phantoms of supremes and heavenly venerables, immortal medicines that had transformed into human figures, and even the former phantoms of true immortals and immortal kings.

What shocked Li Ming even more was that even immortal spirits resembling the Primal Ten Evils were evolved by the heavenly tribulation and charged toward him.

This level of heavenly tribulation was simply too horrifying.

Perhaps it was because his Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art defied the heavens too much, or perhaps because he had devoured too many origins and suffered curses, but this terrifyingly formidable heavenly tribulation was truly frighteningly strong.

Even the dark supremes who had been startled awake in those forbidden zones felt a chill run through their entire bodies.

A heavenly tribulation of this level had even exceeded their comprehension.

It was even more terrifying than the heavenly tribulations of the eight heavenly venerables they had observed, let alone the tribulations of ordinary supremes.

Many dark supremes even believed that if they were the ones undergoing this tribulation, they probably would have been reduced to ashes long ago.

At this moment, Li Ming's state was exceedingly wondrous. His entire person seemed to have merged into the void, and the corpses of the powerhouses whose origins he had devoured, after having some rare materials added to them, were forcefully refined by him into a Heavenly Demonic Saber that billowed with chaos and hovered directly above his head, rising and falling.

Li Ming in the thunder sea appeared supremely ethereal, resembling an exiled immortal.

The myriad dao of heaven and earth launched a frantic attack, and he resisted with all his might. The Heavenly Demonic Saber above his head frantically devoured the lightning, looking mysterious and unpredictable.

Li Ming, who had devoured the origins of so many powerhouses, was not a ferocious great demon with a ferocious face; instead, his appearance was exceptionally handsome, beyond many people's expectations.

Li Ming was jade-like in his abundance, transcendent and refined, with a handsome appearance that was the envy of others, and had once been hailed as the number one handsome man of Ziwei Star.

These things were not important to Li Ming, nor did he care about his outward appearance; he only pursued the understanding of the Great Dao.

Such a terrifying heavenly tribulation meant that Li Ming's strength was destined to be frighteningly formidable.

Being able to survive such a terrifying heavenly tribulation, it would be difficult for him not to be strong.

The Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art indeed offended the heavens, and every transformation and upgrade was a destructive heavenly tribulation, but Li Ming had fought his way up all the way, truly achieving a defiance of the natural order.

He dao-sealed to become a venerable with the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art he created himself. Along the way, he endured a thousand trials and hardships, escaping death by a hair's breadth. Relying on the mysterious bronze mirror, he evaded countless hunts and survived countless terrifying heavenly tribulations, finally making it to this step.

All the figures transformed from vital essence completely returned into Li Ming's body, melting and refining into chaos.

All the figures vanished.

The numerous dark supremes looked at that bizarre scene, unable to help clicking their tongues in wonder.

This person's physique is very special, and the heavenly tribulation he triggered is exceptionally terrifying!

It is impossible to judge this person's physique; at first glance it appears completely unremarkable, but upon careful observation it is terrifyingly powerful.

There seems to be a layer of mist on this person's body, making it impossible for people to see through everything!

Judging from the aura emanating from him, it somewhat resembles the legendary Chaotic Body.

What? It's actually the legendary Chaotic Body?

Back then, many people wanted to wait for that little Chaotic Body named Wang Bo to grow up before harvesting him.

In the end, the Boundless Heavenly Venerable could not hold back, and when Wang Bo was only at the eighth-heaven quasi-emperor stage, he took the lead and forcefully harvested him. It was truly a pity.

If this person is also a Chaotic Body...

Hmph!...

The numerous supremes emitted cold snorts one after another, actually all treating Li Ming as their own prey, wishing to devour his origin and blood essence, and even wanting to occupy his body.
