Thump … Thump … Thump …
With every step Ye Xuan took, the Tongtian staircase rumbled and shook. The so-called Trials of the Great Dao had no effect on him at all.
Actually, the Trials of the Great Dao were the most terrifying of all the Sacred Tribulations of the Primal Chaos. This was because the tribulations directly targeted one's heart and would make the person facing the tribulations suffer unimaginable hardships.
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan had experienced far too many tribulations of the heart. In the past, he had refined his heart in the mortal world and walked the mortal world. He had experienced hardships that ordinary people could not imagine. The so-called Trials of the Great Dao were not as terrifying as the first two tribulations in his eyes.
This was because Ye Xuan's heart had been tempered to the extreme. He was not affected by external factors at all. Even though the Trials of the Great Dao targeted his heart, Ye Xuan saw it as nothing more than that. It could not shake him at all.
How long was the ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine white jade staircases?
Ye Xuan took large strides up without stopping. None of the illusions could stop him for even a moment. When he gradually reached the top, there were only three more steps that he had not passed.
"The Three Questions of the Great Dao!"
Heaven and earth shook as the sound of the Dao rumbled. Strands of ancient Primal Chaos Laws poured down in torrents. The last three white jade staircases bloomed with dazzling light.
Clearly, these last three steps were extremely difficult. If Ye Xuan could cross these three steps, then he would have truly passed the Sacred Tribulation of the Primal Chaos and become a true Saint of Saints.
How long had it been?
Ye Xuan's memories surged. His eyes were a little dazed. He had experienced more than three million years of cultivation, and in the end, he was only left with these last three steps.
Ye Xuan's eyes were a little unfocused. He sighed in his heart. He had experienced far too much in these three million years.
There was love, there was pain, there was sorrow, and there was joy!
From an inexperienced and ignorant youth to today's Tongtian Great Dao, only Ye Xuan himself knew how difficult this journey was.
Three steps!
As long as he could cross these three steps, he would become a Saint of Saints!
Bang!
Ye Xuan's erratic gaze was fading away. He finally took the first step resolutely. Following that, an explosion sounded in his mind, and the scene in front of him instantly changed.
Wu wu wu!
Bones were piled up on both sides of the sea of blood. The souls of the dead were weeping, and the evil spirits were howling. Countless corpses floated in the sea of blood, and the wails of resentment and curses were ear-piercing.
"Ye Xuan, give me back my life!"
Yang Jian, the Jade Emperor, the twelve ancient Golden Immortals, Nüwa, Yuanshi … and countless other living beings were cursing Ye Xuan as the vengeful spirits of the dead.
These were all people who had died at the hands of Ye Xuan. There were so many of them that Ye Xuan couldn't see the end of them.
The sea of blood overturned the sky, and the souls of the dead howled miserably. These people who were once dead all appeared, and they lunged madly at Ye Xuan. Their bloody bodies were exceptionally miserable.
"If I can kill you once, I can kill you a second time. Go to hell, all of you."
The Heaven-Destroying Halberd rolled out. In the face of the endless vengeful spirits, Ye Xuan revealed a cruel and savage expression. When the halberd struck out, all the vengeful spirits of the dead disappeared.
The vengeful spirits of the dead and the evil spirits of the dead confused the human heart. It was a tribulation of the Great Dao.
Perhaps this was a tribulation to others, but to Ye Xuan, these people who had died at his hands were completely regarded as ants. His killing intent was already indestructible, so how could they mess with his mind?
Boom!
The sea of blood and corpses dissipated, and Ye Xuan reappeared on the Tongtian Staircase. At this moment, there were only two steps left beneath his feet.
Bang!
Ye Xuan took the second step, and the scene in front of him changed again. This time, Ye Xuan was stunned, and his body trembled slightly.
Family, this tribulation was his family.
"Brother, you're so ruthless. Give me back the lives of my family of three."
Ye Ling'er's eyes were bleeding, and her husband and child were standing behind her. She stared at Ye Xuan with resentment and cursed harshly.
"Xuan'er, do you still remember me?"
Mrs. Ye walked out of the void, her eyes empty and bleeding. She was questioning him.
"Brother, you're so heartless."
The underling, Ye Ping, roared continuously. He appeared beside Ye Xuan and raised his hand to strangle Ye Xuan's throat with resentment in his eyes.
"Ye Xuan, I want to ask you, have you ever really loved me?" Fairy Guang Han walked out miserably and smiled at Ye Xuan miserably.
"Ye Xuan, you're so ruthless. It's fine if you kill me, but why do you want to kill my father too?" Xia Qingzhu roared with resentment.
At this moment …
Ye Xuan's body was trembling violently, and his mind was in turmoil. Although he knew that everything in front of him was fake, he couldn't control his emotions at all.
"Give me back my life."
"Son."
"Brother."
Ye Ping strangled Ye Xuan's neck tightly while Mrs. Ye bit Ye Xuan's flesh and blood. Ye Ling'er viciously reached out her hand and pierced through Ye Xuan's heart, wanting to see if Ye Xuan's heart was evil.
"Ye Xuan, give me back my life."
Xia Qingzhu and Fairy Guang Han continuously gnawed on the flesh and blood on Ye Xuan's shoulder while letting out resentful cries.
Pain!
Extreme pain!
The pain did not come from his body, but from Ye Xuan's soul. It was so painful that he could barely breathe.
"The Great Dao is indeed powerful."
Ye Xuan allowed them to bite him while he said those words of loneliness. He slowly raised his hand and pinched Ye Ping's neck. As Ye Xuan exerted force with his fingers, Ye Ping's neck was broken and he died.
"Although I know that you're all fake, killing you with my own hands is indeed excruciating."
Rumble!
The Heaven-Destroying Halberd was rolling in the air. His halberd pierced through the throats of these people. That murderous aura burst forth. His eyes turned pale as the illusion dissipated once again.
Pfft!
A mouthful of blood spurted out of Ye Xuan's mouth. He seemed to have mercilessly killed his loved ones. Although Ye Xuan also knew that it was all an illusion, he still felt an indescribable pain in his heart.
"The Great Dao is indeed powerful," Ye Xuan said in a hoarse voice as he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
To put it bluntly, the so-called Great Dao Tribulation was to draw out the thing that the person who was facing the tribulation was most afraid of facing. It would then mess up his mind and cause his soul to dissipate.
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan's heart was too firm. Even though he was extremely sad, he still walked out of the illusion.
Bang!
Ye Xuan didn't delay. He took the third step, which was also the last step.
Rumble!
This time, there was no illusion. Only an illusory figure appeared in front of Ye Xuan. The aura of the illusory figure was obscure, but it gave off an indescribable sense of heaviness.
"The Great Dao Tribulation — What is the Dao?"
"Those who answer correctly will live, and those who answer incorrectly will die!"
The chaotic shadow spoke mercilessly as wisps of chaotic laws circulated around him. His voice constantly exploded in Ye Xuan's ears.
