"From the moment I embarked on the Starry Sky Ancient Road, I swept through everything in my path, finally becoming Quasi-Emperor." "Legend has it that this place holds numerous Dao imprints left by Ancient Emperor and Supreme, treasures coveted by all cultivators."
"It's such a pity I never got to see it."
"How exactly can I cross this Chaos Thunder Sea?" the young Daoist priest asked expectantly.
"You want to cross this sea of lightning?"
A voice suddenly rang out, Tongtian was so frightened that he didn't even notice anyone approaching.
Who could appear behind him so silently?
Tongtian gripped his Immortal-Slaying Sword tightly and suddenly turned his head.
A young man of about twenty years old was looking him over with great interest.
Then the man smiled, nodded, and waved his hand.
Tongtian felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and the Milky Way seemed to reverse. When his vision cleared, he had already crossed the sea of thunder and was standing on a divine mountain.
Here are the imprints left by Supreme and Ancient Emperor, radiating unparalleled divine charm.
The man was sitting cross-legged on a blue stone, smiling as he looked at Tongtian.
Tongtian looked at the man before him, finding him increasingly familiar. Suddenly, a jolt ran through him, and he quickly bowed, saying, "This humble Tongtian greets the Overlord Heavenly Venerable!"
Although Tongtian had never met Overlord Heavenly Venerable, his reputation and portrait had long been known throughout the starry sky.
In this place today, apart from Overlord Heavenly Venerable, probably no one else can easily lead Tongtian into this Chaos Thunder Sea.
"Do you have parents?" Xiao Ping'an asked directly.
Tongtian was about to conceal the truth, he suddenly thought of the Overlord Heavenly Venerable in front of him, who also wanted to find his parents, or rather, to know his origins.
The Overlord Heavenly Venerable's strength is unfathomable; perhaps he can deduce his own karma.
If the Overlord Heavenly Venerable were to intervene, perhaps he could help me uncover the mystery of my origins.
"I don't know where I came from, I only know that my earliest memory is of being woken up by a torrential downpour during a thunderstorm..."
"I beg the Overlord Heavenly Venerable to intervene and uncover the mystery of my origins..." Tongtian said respectfully.
After some deduction, Xiao Ping'an was still unable to deduce Tongtian's origins.
However, considering the striking resemblance between him and Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, he attempted to deduce the connection and indeed discovered an astonishing link.
Xiao Ping'an then recounted the legend of Lingbao Heavenly Venerable and taught him Lingbao Heavenly Venerable's scriptures, especially the Scripture of Salvation, which specifically countered the corpse calamity.
After receiving the scriptures from Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, Tongtian immediately entered a state of enlightenment.
Time flies, and thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Rumble.
On this day, a deafening thunderclap suddenly resounded from the Chaos Sea at the Cosmic Frontier.
The roar of the Great Dao shook the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and all the myriad paths of heaven and earth wailed.
The supreme laws of the Great Dao emanated from it, seemingly capable of suppressing all things in the universe.
"What?"
"Someone actually dares to defy the heavens and seek enlightenment even after the God Emperor has already proven himself?"
Throughout the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, countless Life Source Land and numerous powerful beings were alarmed.
Looking at this terrifying Heavenly Tribulation of Enlightenment, they were filled with bewilderment.
The God Emperor has only been a ruler for a little over five thousand years; how could anyone possibly want to become a ruler?
How could he?
How dare he?
Rumble.
The Cosmic Frontier was no illusion; this terrifying ripple of the Great Dao swept across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
That incredibly violent heavenly tribulation clearly told everyone that someone was indeed proving the Dao.
Just as everyone was speculating about who this person was, a powerful figure finally sent word.
The one who attempted to prove himself as emperor was actually a Daoist named Tongtian.
The Daoist priests appeared on the Starry Sky Ancient Road more than a thousand years after a God Emperor attained enlightenment.
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this.
Unexpectedly, besides the God Emperor, there are others who can attempt to defy the heavens and attain enlightenment.
In the Chaos Sea at the Cosmic Frontier, the laws of the Great Dao are densely interwoven, Hundun and obscuring everything.
Tongtian's imposing figure was undergoing tribulation there.
Yes, it truly was a tribulation to reach the Tongtian.
After being guided into the Chaos Thunder Sea by the Overlord Heavenly Venerable, he cultivated there for a long time.
There, he received personal guidance from the Overlord Heavenly Venerable, and also comprehended the imprints of countless Supreme and Ancient Emperor.
Now he is going to prove himself as emperor.
The Heavenly Heart Imprint roared, and the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were in an uproar.
Those terrifying celestial phenomena manifested in various parts of the world.
All cultivators know that there is a Daoist named Tongtian who, under the suppression of the entire world by the God Emperor, attempts to defy the heavens and attain enlightenment.
To break free from the Heavenly Heart Imprint, one must tread upon the myriad paths of Heaven and Earth.
"Can he really do that?"
"Can he truly break the Heavenly Heart Imprint and stand shoulder to shoulder with the God Emperor?"
One powerful figure after another sparked heated discussions, filled with admiration mixed with concern.
According to ancient records, it is extremely difficult for anyone to attain enlightenment in the same era.
Countless peerless geniuses attempted to challenge it, only to be reduced to ashes by the lightning.
Historically, very few people have been able to defy fate and attain enlightenment when others have already proven it.
Apart from the Undying Heavenly Emperor, who has a verifiable record, most of the other people who were able to defy the heavens and attain enlightenment were reincarnations of ancient venerable beings with great backgrounds.
It is extremely difficult to defy the heavens and attain enlightenment.
In fact, when the Undying Heavenly Emperor attained enlightenment, Xiao Ping'an had already lived through his third life, and his strength was incredibly powerful.
The Demonic Seed he refined parasitized the Undying Heavenly Emperor, so it's not surprising that it was able to break the Heavenly Heart Imprint. Even with the suppression of the Emperor Venerable's Great Dao at the time, Xiao Ping'an was able to defeat the Emperor Venerable and couldn't suppress the Undying Heavenly Emperor at all.
Unfortunately, no one in the world knows this secret; they only believe that the Undying Heavenly Emperor's strength is extraordinary, which is why he was able to do that.
Later generations tried to imitate it, but no one succeeded.
Those reincarnated ancient deities, such as the Netherworld Venerable and the Daode Heavenly Venerable, although they also re-established themselves as emperors, did not need to break the Heavenly Heart Imprint.
At this moment, Tongtian is undergoing a transformation amidst the thunder, determined to forge his own invincible glory.
Although people are unaware of his mysterious connection with Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, Tongtian's strength is astonishing.
Of course, some people speculate based on Tongtian's appearance that Tongtian might also be a reincarnation of an ancient deity.
After all, there were the Netherworld Venerable and the Daode Heavenly Venerable before them, as well as the Emperor Venerable, and the Heavenly Emperor Yu Feng who was transformed from Nirvana, all of whom were considered by people to be reincarnations of ancient venerables.
Ordinary people might not recognize Tongtian, but those Dark Supreme could clearly sense the faint connection between him and Lingbao Heavenly Venerable.
However, these Dark Supreme will not tell the public.
The Lingbao Heavenly Venerable Fortune extraordinary abilities, and according to historical legend, he once slew an injured immortal. Whether this is true or not is unknown, or whether the Immortal-Slaying Sword was indeed the one that legend says killed an immortal and was tempered with the blood of an ancestor.
In the Cosmic Frontier, Tongtian radiated divine light, filled with terrifying killing intent, yet also exuding an incomparably vigorous life force.
His entire body exuded an invincible power that could suppress the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Even more astonishingly, the body emitted a strange fragrance, a scent comparable to Immortal Divine Medicine, leaving one feeling refreshed and invigorated after inhaling it, as if about to Ascension to heaven.
However, what's even more surprising is that his body still contains a dense aura of death, as if it hasn't been completely eliminated.
Just then, the Overlord Heavenly Venerable waved his hand, and an extremely intense aura swept out towards Tongtian.
Splash splash splash.
A terrifying flame rose up, with a small tree and a bird-like flame flickering within it, all composed of Great Dao Runes, as if it were about to burn down time and space.
It is precisely the Immortal Fire of the Immortal Domain, the flame of the tenth level, mentioned in the original text.
These flames, resembling small trees and Little Phoenix, were all composed of mysterious Great Dao Runes, causing the Xukong there to collapse from the heat.
However, those who have reached Xiao Ping'an's level naturally know that this flame contains not only destruction but also life.
Xiao Ping'an originally planned to use this flame to live a new Lifetime, a sixth life, but seeing Tongtian at this moment, and the impenetrable death aura in his body, he decided to help him.
That's why this mysterious flame was temporarily lent to Tongtian.
Rumble.
The flames were terrifyingly powerful, said to have burned even immortals to True Immortal; it seemed that nothing in the world could be more powerful than these flames.
Even the Nine Great Divine Metals could be easily melted in his presence.
The instant the flames came into contact with the Tongtian, they unleashed an earth-shattering divine power of fire.
The most fundamental laws of the Great Dao were immediately activated within the spark, Tongtian's body instantly transformed into a sea of fire, radiating a dreamlike flame.
The death energy within Tongtian's body seemed to be ignited. One terrifying wave after another of death energy, along with the Order Divine Chains born from it, were scorched to ashes by the terrifying flames, radiating incomparably brilliant divine light. With the power of this Immortal Fire, the death energy within his body was completely cleansed.
The flames billowed forth, radiating the power of immortality, aiding Tongtian in his rebirth.
In the blink of an eye, the myriad paths of heaven and earth boiled, and the heavenly sounds of the Great Dao resounded.
After absorbing the terrifying death energy, the primordial laws and runes of the Immortal Fire became even more powerful and terrifying.
It was as if the world within Tongtian's body was about to be transformed into a world of flames.
The death energy within his body was ignited by the flames, burning fiercely.
The flames appeared incredibly sacred, transforming Tongtian into a torch.
Those who don't know the truth might think that Tongtian cultivates the Way of Fire.
The terrifying death energy within his body turned to ashes as the sacred flames burned fiercely.
His body and primordial nerves became crystal clear after being tempered.

The body and bones became even stronger under the scorching heat of the flames.
That incomparably powerful aura of the ultimate Dao swept across the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
All things in heaven and earth looked toward the place where the Tongtian were located.
Although they couldn't see the specific scene there, they could sense an astonishingly vast aura and a life force as boundless as the ocean, permeating everywhere.
Those Quasi-Emperor and Supreme, on the other hand, witnessed an astonishing sight.
A young and incredibly powerful Tongtian was being reborn amidst the raging flames.
Tongtian opened his eyes, and the myriad paths of heaven and earth roared, his supreme divine power spreading throughout the entire universe.
The Heavenly Heart Imprint is also constantly wailing.
Tongtian punch shattered it to pieces, and then stood on the Heavenly Heart Imprint.
Endless rain of light was falling, and countless extraordinary phenomena of heaven and earth were manifesting all over the world.
Needless to say, as everyone knows, Tongtian has successfully attained enlightenment.
He broke the limitations of heaven and earth. Even though the God Emperor had already attained enlightenment, he also broke the Heavenly Heart Imprint and traversed all the paths of heaven and earth.
" Heavenly Sovereign Tongtian!"
May the Emperor live forever! May his lifespan be immeasurable!
"The Emperor attains immortality!"
Amidst the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, resounding cries of congratulations echoed.
Countless Power of Faith surged toward the Tongtian.
Xiao Ping'an watched Tongtian attained the Dao and became emperor, and he also felt it was unbelievable.
This person, who is closely associated with Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, can be considered Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, or he can not.
According to his thinking, Lingbao Heavenly Venerable should have already lived through his sixth incarnation by now, right?
But the Tongtian before them seemed to have completely severed ties with Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, as if it were an independent life, living from its Lifetime.
His body showed no Reincarnation Seal, nor any other traces of having lived several lifetimes.
It's like being reborn.
What exactly is Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, who has already embarked on the Red Dust Immortal Path, thinking?
Could it be that after death, his body transformed into a world, and his head into Heavenly Soldier Ancient Star, signifying that the Red Dust Immortal Path he once explored in the mortal world had been severed?
Rumble.
This is a desolate place devoid of stars, life, and sound.
Time and space seem to have lost their meaning here; this is an eternally unchanging, desolate place.
Beneath the black earth lies an endless sea of corpses, an endless mass of bodies, whose origins are unknown.
This is a desolate place, devoid of any sign of life.
In the center of this desolate land, there is an enormous coffin, ancient and weathered, carved with lifelike mountains, rivers, sun and moon, flowers, birds, fish and insects, all exuding a mysterious and divine charm.
That coffin seemed to contain a vast, incomparably large world, making one want to prostrate oneself in worship and offer oneself as a sacrifice.
On this day, the terrifying celestial tribulation at the Cosmic Frontier suddenly seemed to have stirred up the great forces of heaven and earth in this place, accompanied by an endless surge of death energy.
A deafening roar erupted from the coffin, as if the entire world was about to crumble.
Rumble.
Space shattered, and a turbid Yellow Springs River rushed out and disappeared into another Xukong, containing an extremely dense aura of death.
On the other side, space was also shattered, and pitch-black ghost flames burned fiercely, melting the space there.
The Yellow Springs- o'-the-wisps, and the endless continents surrounding it constitute this dead land.
Upon closer inspection, one can see that this seemingly dead place is actually teeming with life.
The ultimate death.
The life that was nurtured here is now represented by that one coffin.
It turns out that they are destined to be reborn from the dead here, creating a new cycle of reincarnation.
This is an extremely rare and yin place, nurturing a Yin Dragon that is rarely seen throughout the ages, forming a terrain of extreme death and soaring Flying Immortal, which can be said to have seized all the Fortune of heaven and earth, making it an extraordinary burial site.
One after another, Yin Dragon manifested from the Xukong, each stretching for tens of thousands of miles.
The enormous dragon heads were all incredibly lifelike; apart from the difference in their aura, they looked almost identical to True Dragon.
They all opened their dragon mouths, and inside came a rich life force, which cascaded down like a waterfall, a vast expanse of white that submerged the coffin.
If someone knowledgeable in feng shui were here, they would surely shout, " The Yin Dragon ascends to heaven!"
This place may seem like a dead land, but it is constantly devouring the essence of heaven and earth from the outside world, nurturing life within death.
After entering this dead land, the Yin Dragon was first conceived, and then the dragon essence that was conceived poured into the body in the coffin, allowing it to be reborn from the dead and live a new Lifetime.
There were exactly forty-nine of these Yin Dragon, and if you include the Yin Dragon in the coffin, that makes fifty.
The Yin Dragon inside the coffin was the one about to escape.
Crackling sounds.
The coffin lid slowly opened.
A large red hand stretched out, covered with red corpse hair over a foot long.
It looked blood-soaked and was a terrifying sight.
With a thud, the coffin lid slammed to the ground, and a majestic and tall figure stepped out.
He suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze as sharp as a knife.
This Red-Haired Monster looked majestic and imposing, at least three heads taller than ordinary people, almost like an immortal demon god looking down on all living beings.
His eyes were terrifying, a deep crimson that was impossible to look directly at.
His body radiated an immortal power, and a strange divine aura flowed across his surface, with a terrifying pressure permeating the surroundings.
His eyes grew brighter and brighter, clearly like two Sun radiating unparalleled divine light.
The divine light suddenly pierced through this world, looking towards the Chaos Sea at the Cosmic Frontier, and towards Tongtian, who was undergoing tribulation.
His eyes were unblinking, and the light emanating from them seemed to be connected to Tongtian's entire body.
Tongtian, who had just attained the Tongtian and become an emperor, heard a loud boom and his blood and qi boiled.
Tongtian, who was sitting cross-legged recovering his strength, suddenly stood up.
His body, however, was crystal clear and flawless, with his vital energy soaring to the sky, dazzlingly brilliant.
The blood in his body surged and roared like a river, producing a thunderous sound.
" Tongtian!"
" Lingbao, you're not dead yet?"
With a thunderous roar, the Tongtian of the Lingbao seemed to awaken the Red-Haired Monster's memories.
As if revived, the Red-Haired Monster's withered body seemed to come alive. An endless ocean appeared in the dried-up Bitter Sea of bitterness, and countless divine lights burst forth from its body, instantly shattering this world. The surrounding stars exploded one after another like fireworks.
Planets without the protection of the Great Emperor Formation Patterns simply could not withstand the oppressive aura emanating from him, and silently turned into ashes.
Xiao Ping'an frowned as he looked at the Red-Haired Monster that had suddenly appeared. It looked exactly like the legendary Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, and almost exactly like Tongtian.
The only difference was that it was covered in red hair and exuded a putrid stench, resembling a corpse.
The crimson in his eyes seemed to tell everyone that he had lost all intelligence and was left only with madness.
" Tongtian, if I devour you, I can live a new Lifetime!" the Red-Haired Monster roared.
He took a step forward and charged towards the Tongtian.
