Nirvana and Contemplation of the Dao, the Great Battle Erupts!

At this moment, no matter where you stand in the Heavenly Court, if you look up, you can only see a swirling cloud layer that swallows all light.

The vortex stretched across the sky, its diameter unknown, covering the entire Heavenly Court. It was as if a giant hand had reached into the deepest part of the sky, turning the clouds and light into a huge funnel.

That oppressive and gloomy atmosphere, like an invisible stream, gradually enveloped and permeated every corner of the Heavenly Court.

The sense of oppression grew heavier and heavier.

Until no one can ignore it anymore.

Inside the Heavenly Court, countless people gradually raised their heads, their expressions solemn.

They could vaguely sense the immense terror and desolation hidden behind this oppression, which instilled in them a primal fear.

The Sun Palace.

Huang Tian looked up at the Ancient Fusang Tree that seemed to Tongtian heavens and the earth. The phantom of Golden Crow swirled and danced among its branches, reflecting a blazing firelight in his eyes.

Just as he got up and walked away, he suddenly sensed something and abruptly turned his head to look outside the Sun Palace.

The sudden appearance of the bloodline aura earlier made him think that another Golden Crow had appeared in the Heavenly Court, but the bloodline aura quickly disappeared.

Now, instead, there is an unsettling sense of oppression and stagnation.

Even though they were separated by countless distances, he still felt lingering fear. The chilling aura, almost like the very origin of the Great Dao, awakened the Golden Crow Divine Intent, which was about to fall into slumber.

"This is..." The old man's voice echoed in his mind, tinged with rare astonishment, "Dao Calamity? Who could possibly overcome Dao Calamity at this moment?!"

Huang Tian asked in a deep voice, "What is Dao Calamity?"

He keenly sensed that the unusual atmosphere in this place was definitely not simple!

"This is a tribulation that only Primordial Unity Dao Lord must undergo!" the old man said quickly. "Don't delay any longer! Quickly absorb the Ancient Fusang Tree into your Inner View, and use it as a foundation to reshape your Inner Heaven and Earth!"

"Now that the reincarnation of Primordial Unity has been exposed, those guys won't wait any longer— the Heavenly Court is going to close the net ahead of schedule!"

It urged, "Hurry! The Ancient Fusang Tree was born alongside me. I have recognized you, and it will recognize you in the same way!"

Huang Tian remained unmoved and pressed on, "What will happen if we close the net?"

"What are those seven great suns in the sky? They are the eyes of the seven Primordial Unity Dao Lord used to monitor the Heavenly Court!"

The old man said urgently,

"These guys probably want to use this opportunity to seize control of the Zhou Heaven Star Battle Grand Formation, and at the same time, choose a Mortal Realm substitute from this batch of people entering the Heavenly Court."

"Besides, someone like you, whom I've chosen, is also someone I need to eliminate!"

"As expected, the guy who was traversing the Dao Calamity has been completely exposed, and those seven beings will definitely not let him go!"

"Even if he survives the Dao Calamity, he will die at the hands of those seven!"

Huang Tian remained silent for a few moments, his gaze shifting, before he looked up at the ancient tree in front of him.

The Ancient Fusang Tree swayed slightly, and the Golden Crow phantoms among its branches all lowered their gazes and turned to him.

Without further hesitation, he strode forward and reached out to grab the Ancient Fusang Tree.

The High Heaven Treasure Hall.

Lu Daolin suddenly opened his eyes.

Now that he sits in the center of the palace, he has already gained some control over the High Heaven Treasure Hall and is using this to plot to seize control of the entire Heavenly Court.

Although he has not yet succeeded, his cultivation level and the authority of the High Heaven Treasure Hall have allowed him to glimpse everything happening on the other side of Jade Pool.

"Dao Calamity..."

Lu Daolin's eyes were deep and unfathomable. After a long while, he whispered,

"Are you also someone's reincarnation?"

The main hall was silent, with only Lu Daolin's voice echoing, adding a touch of loneliness and sorrow. The Immortals and Gods corpses sitting around him remained as silent as stone.

Lu Daolin slowly closed his eyes, letting the seven great suns in the sky begin to invade the Heavenly Court.

He knew very well that these seven were awakening from their slumber, and their gaze would once again be fixed on this world, including their power. They would not let go of any existence that might threaten them, and Yu Tunzhou's "exposure" had firmly nailed him to the bullseye.

Even if Yu Tunzhou manages to overcome the Dao Calamity, he will still face attacks from one, two, or three of these seven individuals.

He will not intervene to save Yu Tunzhou.

Because our paths diverge, we cannot work together.

But suddenly, he remembered a phrase that one of his disciples used to like to say:

The enemy of my enemy is my ally.

Lu Daolin silent for a long time before letting out a soft sigh.

Deep within the Heavenly Court.

The Yao Qi and the sword energy collided continuously, shattering everything around them.

After the Immortal-Slaying Flying Blade and the Demon-Summoning Banner clashed fiercely that day, even the Dharma Aspect present were unable to mediate, and at the height of the conflict, they couldn't even intervene.

The two divine weapons clashed and penetrated deep into the Heavenly Court. At that time, Qingyuanzi and Xue Wuya decisively chose to give up, while the other Demon Race Dharma Aspect, Old Gang Leader Su from the Central Plains, and another Immortals and Gods from the lower realm chose to continue the pursuit.

At this moment, Niu Kui frowned, looking at the two "ancestors" who were fighting endlessly, feeling very troubled.

The broken sword, though only half remaining, still possessed such power, clearly indicating it was a celestial weapon of the Primordial Unity grade. While the Demon-Summoning Banner was of a similar grade and even more complete, it was not an offensive weapon and was considerably weaker in terms of killing power.

That's why the two have been entangled to this day.

What left the Dharma Aspect speechless was that these two divine weapons had actually fought to this day without a master.

This has clearly reached the point where it will exhaust our very essence and we will fight to the death!

Currently, the three demon gods, Niu Kui, Golden Firmament, and Qingqiu, each occupy a region and are attempting to join forces to suppress the Immortal-Slaying Flying Blade and help the Demon-Summoning Banner gain the upper hand.

Meanwhile, Old Gang Leader Su and another Immortals and Gods from the lower realm, known as [Taiyinzi], were waiting on the other side for an opportunity to stop Niu Kui and the others.

"Human Race of the Central Plains, can't you go and seek your own fortuitous opportunity?"

"Novel Website" Hand-typed Update

Niu Kui finally couldn't hold back and glared angrily at the old man who had hit him and run away without a trace of dirt.

Su Mang chuckled, "Isn't this my fortuitous opportunity?"

Niu Kui exhaled two streams of white breath from his nostrils, about to retaliate, when the battle situation ahead suddenly changed.

The Demon-Summoning Banner suddenly trembled violently, Yao Qi surged, instantly freeing the previously suppressed Immortal-Slaying Flying Blade.

This time, however, the Immortal-Slaying Flying Blade did not strike the Demon-Summoning Banner again. Instead, it hovered in mid-air, its blade humming continuously, as if sensing something.

Golden Firmament's eagle eyes suddenly sharpened as he looked in the direction the blade was pointing.

That's in the northwest, where that dark vortex stretching across the sky is still slowly turning.

"It seems to have sensed something..." Qingqiu whispered, her seven fox tails tensing slightly as she also sensed the subtle changes in the Liaokong.

The assembled Dharma Aspect looked up in turn.

They had noticed the changes in the celestial phenomena long ago, but had been too preoccupied to pay attention to them. Yet now, they couldn't help but look at them.

Suddenly.

The Immortal-Slaying Flying Blade abruptly changed direction, transforming into a streak of silver-white light, shooting straight towards the area the vortex was pointing towards.

The Demon-Summoning Banner hovered in mid-air, seemingly hesitant.

Seeing this, Niu Kui and the others quickly stepped forward and spoke one after another:

"We are all demon gods under the command of the Demon Emperor Niangniang. We hereby request the sacred artifact to reflect upon the Demon Race!"

"Holy relic above, please follow us back to our clan!"

With the other two bastards relentlessly entangled, the three demon gods put aside their disputes and joined forces to activate the Secret Method of the Demon Race race's bloodline, attempting to use the power of their shared origin to summon the Demon-Summoning Banner back.

The Demon-Summoning Banner banner suddenly unfurled, and Yao Qi surged violently, as if it were weighing something.

Niu Kui and the others were overjoyed, all believing that the sacred object was about to return.

However, the next moment, the Demon-Summoning Banner suddenly shook, its surface fluttering, and transformed into a streak of black light, chasing after the direction in which the Immortal-Slaying Flying Blade had disappeared, and soared into the sky.

Its speed was so fast that even the three great demon Divine Capital were caught off guard.

"???" Niu Kui's eyes widened, and the veins on his thick neck bulged with shock and anger.

"Good heavens, now there's nothing left." Su Mang muttered, his eyes fixed on the direction the two divine weapons had flown off to.

The excitement over there... seems a bit risky.

Central Plains.

True Martial Sect.

The Daoist Wolong frowned deeply; even his profound Daoist cultivation made him feel a little uneasy.

From that moment on, Fellow Daoist Yu's fate began to "jump wildly."

He had never imagined that the changes in a person's fate could be described with the word "leaping"!

In his deductions, Fellow Daoist Yu's fate repeatedly teetered between certain death and a sliver of hope, violently and without any discernible pattern.

What alarmed him even more was that after each jump, the "lifeline" of hope kept thickening and multiplying.

First-tier, second-tier, third-tier...

It's as if someone is on an unseen chessboard, slowly prying open a crack in what was originally a hopeless situation.

But who exactly is defying fate to change Fellow Daoist Yu's destiny?

There are very few people in the world who are proficient in the I Ching and the art of destiny, and who also possess the relevant authority and power. He couldn't think of anyone who would be willing to risk their life to change Fellow Daoist Yu's fate!

Yu Tunzhou took out the Peach of Immortality that had been prepared beforehand, stuffed them into his mouth one by one, chewed them, and swallowed them.

The extremely pure medicinal power surged into the body, hiding deep within the internal organs and bone marrow, and flowing along the Great Spirit Courtyard into the Primordial Spirit Heaven and Earth.

The time accumulated by the ninth lightning tribulation far exceeded his expectations.

It's like waiting for him to reach his peak, his most perfect form, and then...

Destroy it in one fell swoop!

At this moment, the lightning that had been pulsating in his acupoints and pores had all dissipated.

The tempering and enhancement brought about by the eightfold tribulation were completely transformed by the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art.

His physical body underwent a complete transformation.

Its entire body is flawless, like crystal; it is not the gentle beauty of a woman, but rather the ultimate masculine "immaculateness."

Every inch of flesh and blood, every Root Bone, conforms to the principles of heaven and earth, as if "perfectly formed by nature."

At this point, he felt he could go no further.

At this moment, his mere existence gives one the illusion of being one with the entire universe.

It was as if he were standing at the very center of this world.

His breathing and heartbeat were synchronized and intertwined with the world.

It is free of dust within and conforms to the heavenly order without.

This is no longer an ordinary physical body, but rather a body that is close to that of Immortal Physique or a Daoist being.

But at this moment, this almost flawless Dao body suddenly tensed up.

All sounds in the entire Heavenly Court vanished at the same moment.

It was as if all things in heaven and earth held their breath.

The ninth tribulation lightning bolt then descended.

It fell from the deepest part of the celestial vortex, colorless and formless, and arrived above his head before Yu Tunzhou could even react.

Then.

The world was silent.

The thunder stopped, the wind ceased, and the clouds calmed.

It's as if the entire Heavenly Court has been stripped of the concept of "sound".

Between heaven and earth, only that tall figure remained, along with lightning whose color could not be described.

The lightning didn't illuminate anything; instead, it swallowed up the surrounding light, highlighting the figure that refused to bow to the great calamity of heaven and earth.

Skin, flesh, tendons, bones, internal organs...

Everything melted away in an instant.

Only a "form" remained in the world.

Like an outline, imprinted in the Void.

Even this outline is gradually fading into transparency.

The moment it becomes completely transparent will be the moment Yu Tunzhou dies and his life ends.

at the same time.

High above, someone cast their gaze upon this place with indifference, ruthlessness, majesty, and undisguised apprehension.

"Is the Dao Lineage secretly plotting something? Is it using truth to deceive, and falsehood to create truth?"

A chilling voice echoed from the heavens, as if it came from the far reaches of the Void.

The response was from another ancient and weathered voice. "Since Nanhua's passing, the Dao Lineage has not seen Dao Lord- level being return for far too long."

"Is he from Nanhua?"

"Yes, he was targeted by the Kunpeng Divine Intent long ago. In the world today, only Nanhua can restrain that old Kunpeng! We should have realized this long ago."

"Shall we make a move?" A third voice rang out, a clear, cold female voice, like a cold spring striking jade.

"No need," the first voice said. "His Dao Calamity is not yet complete; if we intervene, Dao Calamity will be brought forward."

What if he makes it through?

There was a moment of silence above the heavens.

"If they cross the river, then we shouldn't have intervened." A fourth, majestic, and resounding voice rang out.

Why?

"Because from that moment on, he was the true successor of the Grand Purity lineage."

The woman's voice fell silent.

After a moment, she said, "Is this the 'path' you all seek?"

"That is not the Way."

The grand voice spoke slowly,

"It is reverence."

The woman said indifferently, "Then, let's see who has the best skills."

"In addition..."

For the first time, the woman's voice carried emotion, a hint of mockery.

He may not be able to survive this Dao Calamity.

That concludes the discussion.

No sound came from the heavens above.

But unseen undercurrents are surging wildly.

He could not hear Thunderclap, could not see the light of day, could not breathe, and had no taste on his tongue...

The sense of touch in the body has been completely dissolved.

Yu Tunzhou felt like a lost soul.

No.

It doesn't even qualify as a wandering ghost.

Only a sliver of light remained, neither born Indestructible, suspended between heaven and earth.

And now, even this last vestige of consciousness is sinking into the deepest chaos.

Here, there is no distinction between heaven and earth, no forms of all things, and even the concept of "self" is gradually being lost.

When all forms and substances dissolve and all cognition is stripped away, what remains is the most fundamental "Tao" itself.

Chaos and confusion.

Feeling dazed and confused.

His consciousness expanded in the Void, extending into nothingness.

It's unclear whether he was approaching the "Tao," or whether the "Tao" was flowing into him.

He felt himself become a wisp of wind, blowing from the mountaintop to the foot of the mountain, then brushing across the sea with the misty clouds, witnessing the hazy starlight over the plains, and merging into the rainbow light, stretching across the sky...

I don't know how much time has passed.

Yu Tunzhou "opened" its eyes again.

I saw chaos.

He saw that the principles of heaven and earth and all things were slowly flowing within the chaos.

This is called Great Understanding!

--Discard limbs, discard intelligence, separate from form and knowledge, and become one with the Great Void.

At this moment when his physical form vanished and his Primordial Spirit was emptied, Yu Tunzhou finally glimpsed the true mystery of the physical body.

That chaos, flowing with the principles of heaven and earth and all things, is his Inner View!

This moment-

As chaos evolved, the Dao's essence transformed into the mountains, mists, seas, plains, and starlight that flowed through him...

The Tao transforms all things, and all things return to the Tao.

He is the Tao, and the Tao is him.

--The moment he truly comprehended the mysteries of the physical body, the "outline" that had been imprinted on the world and gradually faded to transparency suddenly brightened!

Deep within his Primordial Spirit, an extremely warm and mellow medicinal power slowly rippled out, like spring water overflowing a barren plain, filling it with indescribable colors, and began to reassemble into form.

His rebirth has begun--

One by Root Bone spring forth from nothing, forming the outline; first, the fundamental principles are established.

Afterwards, the twelve regular meridians and the eight extraordinary meridians are connected in sequence, and there are no longer any distinctions between acupoints and passes. The meridians are located after the Dao bone.

Then, the internal organs are reshaped one by one.

A heart beats in the Void, the first beat like the tolling of an ancient bell, deep and resonant, bursting forth with the blood flowing through the entire body.

Immediately afterwards, the lungs expanded, inhaling the purest wisp of Qi from heaven and earth.

Subsequently, the liver wood element flourishes, the kidney water element returns to its source, and the spleen earth element is stabilized...

When everything is ready, flesh and blood are naturally born.

Finally, the eyebrows and facial features gradually emerged.

It was that familiar face again.

Her eyebrows and eyes remain the same, her facial features remain the same.

But their overall demeanor was completely different.

Calm, insightful, and harmonious.

There was no trace of his imposing aura deliberately emanating from him, yet everything around him seemed to spontaneously revolve around him, as if all things were paying homage to his ancestor.

This has already transcended the limitations of the Dao!

Yu Tunzhou stood there, like a primordial being emerging from the ancient Primordial Wilderness. He showed no signs of the disarray of undergoing tribulation; on the contrary, he was more serene and complete than before.

He slowly opened his eyes.

Those pupils reflected the heavens and the earth.

As the lightning tribulation subsided, the vortex of clouds that had enveloped the Heavenly Court also began to dissipate.

But the oppressive and somber atmosphere that enveloped the entire Heavenly Court did not dissipate...

Because seven "great suns" reappeared in the sky.

A cold voice suddenly rang out from the heavens:

"Then let's fight!"

"You cannot protect those I wish to kill!"

In an instant, a giant hand descended from the sky, carrying an overwhelming force that blotted out the sun, and crashed down!

The giant hand was made entirely of pure gold, with the sun, moon, and stars flowing within its palm. Its aura was so vast that it caused the entire Jade Pool to tremble.

"The Dao Lineage has overstepped its bounds!"
