With lightning speed, Xiao Ping'an swept his hand, collecting the countless showers of light and the fragments of the Fighting Saint Emperor's broken bones.
He poured all his strength into creating a Fighting Saint Emperor whose body was covered in cracks.
Then, he took a drop of the Fighting Saint Emperor's primordial blood essence from the Immortal Iron Staff and injected it into the Fighting Saint Emperor's shattered body.
Just as Xiao Ping'an was about to take further steps to save the Fighting Saint Emperor.
Buzzing.
Suddenly, a very mysterious Dao fluctuation emanated from the entire world. That Dao fluctuation was so vast that it shook the entire world.
"Oh no! A cataclysmic change has begun!"
" The Fighting Saint Emperor's failure to transform into Battle Immortal has prematurely triggered Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation!"
"It's over. Are we going to suffer Heaven's Will Blade like in the end of the mythological era?"
"How many people will die in this Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation?"
Not only were many cultivators discussing it, but even the Dark Supreme of those forbidden zones all had their expressions change drastically.
According to their calculations, there should still be at least 120,000 years until the end of the Primordial Era, giving everyone ample time to prepare.
However, now, the Fighting Saint Emperor has recklessly triggered the Immortal Ascension Tribulation, which seems to have touched something unpredictable, causing this Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation to occur ahead of schedule.
The essence of heaven and earth began to decrease rapidly, as if a funnel had appeared in the world, quickly devouring all the essence of heaven and earth.
Even the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth is becoming increasingly difficult to sense; many places where the Great Dao roars have suddenly fallen silent.
Many cultivators who were still striving to break through their limits looked completely bewildered.
The Great Saint and Quasi-Emperor were terrified. They knew the end of the world was coming, and whether they could survive was uncertain.
Just when all living beings in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths felt that the end of the world was coming, the aura of the Overlord Heavenly Venerable suddenly filled the entire world.
That terrifying aura was forcibly suppressed by the Overlord Heavenly Venerable.
"I have stabilized this world with multiple Immortal Artifact and forcibly stopped the Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation with my own Great Dao. We all have about 30,000 years to prepare for the long Dharma-ending Age that follows."
Xiao Ping'an's voice resounded throughout the world.
That heroic and majestic figure illuminates the heavens and soothes the hearts of men.
Dongfang Taiyi, Di Que, and Netherworld Venerable also took action to quell the abnormal fluctuations of the Great Dao in various corners of the world.
Although they don't have the strength of the Overlord Heavenly Venerable, they still possess the ability to calm the fluctuations of the Great Dao on a life-bearing planet.
The failure of the Fighting Saint Emperor to transform into Battle Immortal prematurely triggered Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation, but this matter has been temporarily suppressed.
The fact that the Overlord Heavenly Venerable could maintain the environment of this world for another 30,000 years is already an incredible thing for everyone.
After many cultivators understood this, they all hailed the name of the Overlord Heavenly Venerable.
Fortunately, there was a great deal of Divine Source Liquid at this time. Many holy lands and aristocratic families had preserved a lot of it, enough to seal it away and leave enough clansmen for future generations to spend the long Dharma-ending Age in slumber.
Many people plan to break the seal as soon as the Desolate Ancient Era begins and the End of the Dharma Era ends.
Some, however, intend to remain asleep until the Road to Immortality the Big Dipper opens.
In this late ancient era, many extraordinary talents were born, including many Great Saint and Quasi-Emperor. It can be said that this was a glorious and splendid age.
Moreover, with four emperors standing side by side, an unprecedented golden age was created, which will surely leave a mark on history.
People eagerly await the Victorious Fighting Saint Emperor, who will pave a new Road to Immortality for everyone.
However, the Fighting Saint Emperor met a tragic end; he failed, and his body exploded.
This is a painful lesson.
Looking down upon the myriad realms of the mortal world, Xiao Ping'an also sensed the panic of all living beings.
Although most people wouldn't live to see 30,000 years from now, people still began making various preparations.
Some are ready to be sealed now, while others plan to seal them 30,000 years from now.
Everyone has their own plans.
Knowing that failure was possible, the Fighting Saint Emperor had already made arrangements for his younger brother and son, the Holy Prince, before his breakthrough.
She even arranged for her younger brother to marry the princess of Divine Silkworm Ridge in advance, and the marriage has already been successfully completed.
Now that such a big thing has happened to the Fighting Saint Emperor, the Holy Prince and his uncle have not appeared because they have already been sealed away by the Fighting Saint Emperor.
Xiao Ping'an used every means at his disposal and finally managed to awaken the Fighting Saint Emperor.
But now he is completely exhausted.
Looking at the still young Xiao Ping'an, the Fighting Saint Emperor sighed repeatedly.
Then he said to Xiao Ping'an, "Greetings Overlord Heavenly Venerable!"
"I'm truly sorry to trouble you, fellow Daoist. Thank you for allowing me to see this world one more time."
The Fighting Saint Ape is difficult to reproduce. In each golden age, only two or three Fighting Saint Ape are born. Their bloodline is domineering and can give birth to new Fighting Saint Ape with pure bloodlines with other races.
However, it is precisely because their bloodline is too dominant that they have difficulty conceiving, resulting in a small population in each generation.
However, their bloodline is strong, and almost every generation produces Great Saint Christmas.
Especially in the generation of the Fighting Saint Emperor, the Fighting Saint Ape, whose population was sparse, actually directly proved himself to be an emperor.
Looking back on his life, the Fighting Saint Emperor was filled with emotion.
"Please, fellow Daoist, give my Immortal Iron Staff to my son or brother. I am powerless to seal it away."
The Immortal Iron Staff let out mournful cries, clearly indicating that its weapon deity had also awakened.
"Go!" Xiao Ping'an said to the Immortal Iron Staff.
A streak of light shot out, and the Immortal Iron Staff was sealed in the Undying Mountain, together with the Fighting Saint Emperor's younger brother and son.
Yes, the Fighting Saint Emperor has a lot of influence; his son and brother are qualified to be sealed in one of the safest places, the Undying Mountain.
Another reason is that the Overlord Heavenly Venerable, out of his fondness for the Great Saint Sun Wukong Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, extended that fondness to the Fighting Saint Ape lineage as well.
That's why they were allowed to be sealed in the Undying Mountain.
Ordinary people don't have the qualifications to be sealed there.
"I'll send you to Strange World; perhaps there you'll have a glimmer of hope." Xiao Ping'an looked at the dying Fighting Saint Emperor.
"You're talking about Strange World with a small amount of Longevity Substance? That's certainly a good place." The Fighting Saint Emperor nodded.
"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist!"
Xiao Ping'an nodded, then threw a punch that created a passage in the Xukong, sending the Fighting Saint Emperor to the Strange World.
Just then, Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Di Que also arrived.
They also hoped to enter the Strange World together.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Ping'an sent the two of them into the Strange World as well.
It would be better for the Fighting Saint Emperor, who was seriously injured, to have the two of them looking after him.
Although the Emperor Venerable has already established a great reputation in that world, and may even have launched a war to destroy the world, completely controlling the Strange World and establishing a separate Heavenly Court.
However, no news came from over a long period of time, and Xiao Ping'an was very curious about the situation there.
Anyway, it's the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, and there's been no news about it for a long time.
It was as if that world had undergone a strange change, making it impossible to send messages to this world via telegram.
The fact that Dongfang Taiyi and Di Que did not undergo transformation in this world, but instead went to Strange World, was indeed beyond Xiao Ping'an's expectations.
After all, Xiao Ping'an had discussed the theories of the Mortal World Immortal with them before, and they knew how powerful the Mortal World Immortal were.
But since they wanted to enter the Strange World, sending one person or three people was the same as sending them, so they might as well send them all.
Perhaps they considered the Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation, or perhaps they felt that the other world was more likely to undergo transformation, or perhaps they had even deduced their own future destiny and felt that the Strange World was more suitable for them.
Anyway, they went.
The golden age has ended, and the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth has become increasingly difficult to perceive. Everyone senses the approaching end of the Dharma era.
The impending end of the Primordial Era is already an open secret among many sacred sites and aristocratic families.
Moreover, this secret was revealed by the Overlord Heavenly Venerable himself; his voice had already spread throughout the world long ago.
Since Di Que and Dongfang Taiyi left this world, numerous geniuses have begun a large-scale sealing process.
After all, in their eyes, Di Que and Dongfang Taiyi escaped this world and gone to another world to escape the Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation.
Originally not particularly precious, the Divine Source Liquid became increasingly rare due to the dramatic changes in the world, transforming into an extremely valuable treasure with a price that was impossible to find.
Many bloody incidents even occurred because of the struggle for the previously commonplace Divine Source Liquid.
To preserve their strength and status, many holy lands and aristocratic families sealed away their powerful members and geniuses in advance. What should have been an era in which numerous Quasi-Emperor and Great Saint were active quickly became a time when they could not be found at all.
Within that Life Forbidden Zone, numerous Dark Supreme either imprinted themselves with dense arrays, plunging themselves into a deep slumber, or quickly transformed into Saint Spirit Stone Embryo to escape the Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation.
Many more years passed.
On this day, Xiao Ping'an suddenly sensed an astonishing change in the Heavenly Heart Imprint, a sign of the fall of the Ancient Emperor Supreme.
He could tell at a glance that the Netherworld Venerable was about to pass away.
With a flicker of his figure, he instantly appeared where the Netherworld Venerable was.
The current Netherworld Venerable has not gone to sleep on Earth; instead, he plans to sleep on the Big Dipper.
The Netherworld Venerable Netherworld Venerable, who was about to lie in his coffin, was not surprised by Xiao Ping'an's appearance; it seemed to be within his expectations.
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!
"Greetings Overlord Heavenly Venerable!"
" Netherworld Venerable, you have achieved perfection in your cultivation in this Lifetime, and are now closer to Nine-Lifetime Reincarnation Seal."
Congratulations on the completion of your merits in this Lifetime.
At this moment, the Netherworld Venerable had already seen his past memories and naturally knew that in his previous life, he had discussed metaphysics and Daoism with the Overlord Heavenly Venerable.
Although he is now a new soul, having cultivated to this level, he is now able to treat the Overlord Heavenly Venerable as an equal when discussing profound mysteries and the Dao.
"Haha, my life's work is done, time to be buried in the ground again."
" The Immortal Divine Medicine is useless to me now. I'll bury myself in the ground, and when I reappear, I'll be a new soul."
While achieving perfect merit is a cause for celebration, it is not a good thing for the soul born from the spirit of this corpse.
This means that the soul in this Lifetime is about to perish, and it's hard to say whether it will be able to return in the future.
Anyway, the Netherworld Venerable reluctantly entered the coffin and buried himself.
Or perhaps Xiao Ping'an personally buried him and saw him off.
Various signs have appeared throughout the world indicating that an Ancient Emperor of our time has passed away.
People also learned that the Netherworld Venerable had passed away.
The legendary era of four emperors standing side by side has thus come to an end.
Time flew by, and soon Xiao Ping'an could no longer hold on.
The coming of the Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation is unstoppable.
He released the suppression, allowing the entire world to operate as it pleased. The Primordial Era ended, and the Desolate Ancient Era began. This was an unstoppable trend of the universe.
The whole world seemed to rumble, as if the sky were about to collapse and the earth was about to split apart; the entire world was shaking violently.
The entire world was filled with strange clouds, the kind of tribulation clouds that are usually seen during heavenly tribulations. A terrifying aura was brewing within them, and all living beings in the world were filled with fear.
Soon, the entire world underwent astonishing changes.
With a deafening roar, an invisible wave of the Great Dao, like a Heavenly Blade, swept across the entire world.
Nothing in this world can be avoided or stopped.
Heavenly Heart Imprint was groaning after being stabbed.
The entire universe and all its myriad paths seemed to vanish in an instant, becoming completely undetectable.
All the practitioners felt a void in their hearts, and it took a long time before they could vaguely sense the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth again.
But it's many times weaker than before, almost negligible.
Then that strange fluctuation of the Great Dao reappeared.
Then, the essence of heaven and earth seemed to have been severed by Heaven's Will Blade, and the entire world suddenly became thin in spiritual energy, entering the era of the end of Dharma or the era of spiritual depletion.
Then came the third cut.
After the invisible Dao fluctuations, all the Immortal Divine Medicine and their nascent consciousness vanished instantly. Their consciousness was actually annihilated by the Heaven's Will Blade strike. Although their consciousness will be reborn in the future, it will be a new generation of consciousness.
Even the radiance of the Immortal Divine Medicine dimmed considerably, and most of its life essence was instantly severed, causing all the Immortal Divine Medicine to enter a period of decline, from which it would take countless years to recover.
The rich aura of longevity emanating from Xiao Ping'an seemed to have been slashed by the Heavenly Blade, causing his aura to weaken somewhat, though thankfully not by too much.
The final, fourth cut came.
All the Immortal Artifact, Extreme Dao Weapon, and even those Dark Supreme let out mournful cries and muffled groans.
Some of the Dark Supreme who did not transform into Saint Spirit Stone Embryo were pierced through by the Heavenly Blade and instantly lost their lives.
Some Dark Supreme, however, struggled to resist and dared not venture out to incite Dark Turmoil. After all, the Overlord Heavenly Venerable had taught them the Mortal World Immortal, and their unwillingness to transform into Saint Spirit Stone Embryo was entirely their own doing.
If they dare to incite Dark Turmoil, Xiao Ping'an will absolutely not let them off the hook.
Although most of the Dark Supreme have transformed into Saint Spirit Stone Embryo, a small number of Dark Supreme have not yet transformed.
The harm they suffered was of their own making, and Xiao Ping'an showed them no sympathy whatsoever.
As the fluctuations of the Great Dao continued, even those Quasi-Emperor and Great Saint, though sealed away, still suffered heavy losses.
Surprisingly, most of them perished, killed by this Heaven's Will Blade.
The cries of anguish echoed from sacred sites and noble families throughout the entire universe.
Then another blade appeared between heaven and earth, the final blade.
Once again, it slashed at all the spirits of heaven and earth, just as it had at the end of the Mythological Era.
Xiao Ping'an was also stunned. It turned out that the end of the Mythological Era and the end of the Primordial Era had actually experienced such a devastating Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation.
The world and all living beings suffered heavy casualties, with countless lives perishing.
Even with Xiao Ping'an's extraordinary strength, he was powerless to help.
This Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation claimed the lives of ninety percent of all living beings, comparable to the greatest Dark Turmoil described in the original text.
Xiao Ping'an looked at the manifested Heaven's Will Blade, which was as red as blood, as if it had collected the essence and blood of all living beings in this world.
It seemed to be entirely generated from the Great Dao Runes, and suddenly he had a thought: he wanted to collect this Heavenly Blade.
Xiao Ping'an was also puzzled. Why did this so-called "Heaven's Will Blade " actually materialize?
Crimson sword light filled the air as he unleashed earth-shattering divine power in response to Xiao Ping'an's provocation.
Looking at the dazzling red light, Xiao Ping'an couldn't tell what material it was made of.
Even though Xiao Ping'an is now so powerful, he still feels as if his body is about to be shredded.
But in the end, Xiao Ping'an still managed to capture Tian Yidao.
Then, with all his might, he slashed at his Immortal Platform and body.
Yes, Xiao Ping'an will use this Heavenly Blade to live a new Lifetime.
Xiao Ping'an's still-young body suddenly exploded.
Then a completely new Xiao Ping'an appeared.
He was full of vigor and vitality, and lived to be the eighth incarnation.
His blood and energy were burning fiercely, and with a wave of his hand, he struck at the Heavenly Blade.
With a deafening roar, the Heavenly Blade was shattered by Xiao Ping'an, turning into countless fragments of red light rain.
Xiao Ping'an stood there at the infinite height of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, letting the fragments of the Undying Heavenly Blade continuously wash over his body, yet they could not leave any marks on his body.
The profound and mysterious divine essence contained within allowed Xiao Ping'an to successfully live out a new Lifetime, a brand new eighth life.
He collected the incomparably brilliant fragments of the Heavenly Blade again; each piece was dazzling and incredibly beautiful.
The red glow emanating from above resembled flames burning.
Although the surviving powerful individuals sensed Xiao Ping'an's astonishing aura, they were all preoccupied with licking their wounds and had no intention of investigating what had actually happened.
They could only sense an astonishing surge of power from the Great Dao there, which never disappeared.
That was the unique Dao fluctuation on the Heavenly Blade, even after it was broken into pieces.
Xiao Ping'an sensed the world-destroying aura emanating from above, and his eyes grew brighter and brighter.
He suddenly had an idea: his weapon of proof, the Overlord Heaven Bell, seemed to be more inclined towards defense.
He wanted to forge a Heavenly Blade to enhance his attack power.
This Heaven's Will Blade, once materialized, seems to be the perfect material for refining.
