Zhen Yuan was in an uproar. Although Saint Toad Laurel was furious, there was nothing he could do. The power of the Great Dao lingered around his body, forming a violent force that clashed with the second bolt of lightning.
At the same time, his body was exposed to the lightning. His body was constantly being attacked by the surging lightning.
At this moment, she was like a candle that could be extinguished at any time.
However, the more dangerous it was, the more pure and powerful her power was.
She had cultivated in the Moon Palace for tens of thousands of years, and her control of power had long reached the point of perfection. Although she seemed to be in a panic, every step she took could be followed.
Bang! Bang!
After more than a hundred consecutive strikes, the descending lightning finally couldn't withstand it and turned into lightning that disappeared in the air.
Although he had successfully withstood it, Saint Toad Laurel's face was pale. His breathing was hurried, and his aura was weakened by nearly half.
If it was a normal tribulation, eight bolts of lightning wouldn't be able to injure him to this extent. Now, he couldn't withstand the second bolt of lightning.
The more he thought about it, the more depressed he felt.
He turned to look at the young man and saw that he was still eating sunflower seeds. Lightning as thick as a strand of hair flickered around him. The shadow of a tree was faintly discernible between his eyebrows.
"I understand now. You... are using the Osmanthus Tree to avoid the lightning tribulation."
Saint Toad Laurel came to a realization.
The Osmanthus Tree was her original body. She had been refined by the other party and deliberately released her aura. Naturally, the lightning treated her as her original body and kept attacking.
What a trap!
"Continue to resist the third lightning tribulation."
With a faint smile, the Osmanthus Tree flew out from between Su Yin's eyebrows and swept back and forth in front of the dark clouds with an extremely arrogant look.
As expected, the lightning could no longer be controlled. A thick bolt of lightning struck down.
The power of this strike far surpassed the previous two bolts. It was even equivalent to the combination of the previous two bolts. The void was instantly ignited. With Saint Toad Laurel as the center, the space within a radius of dozens of miles collapsed.
Afraid that this power would touch him, Su Yin kept retreating. Just as he reached the edge of the collapse, his hair stood on end. Then, he felt a powerful force rushing toward him from behind.
He hurriedly turned his head and saw that the power of Yama, Forget River, Limbo, and Meng Po had gathered together to form a vast ocean that enveloped him.
These four experts had actually chosen to attack him when the third bolt of lightning was descending!
Furthermore, he had unleashed his domain right from the start.
Su Yin's body tensed up, and he felt as if he had sunk into mud once again. Following that, the ocean appeared before him, and the huge waves seemed to want to drown him forever.
One of the Yellow Springs' main bodies, the Sea of Forgetfulness!
The seawater was blood-yellow in color. After drinking a mouthful, one would forget their memories of this life, and their soul would become incomparably pure.
The Bridge of Helplessness was built above this ocean.
Not only that, but the Book of Life and Death also borrowed the power of the River of Forgetfulness to descend. The Great Path of Life and Death traversed thousands of miles, as if it was going to tear it apart again.
"Yama-Kings, you're courting death …"
The Five Elements Sage did not think that these fellows would dare to launch a sneak attack on him right when the lightning tribulation was about to descend. He was so infuriated that his scalp turned numb.
Turning around, Su Yin wasn't flustered at all. Instead, there was a smile on his face.
If he had known that these people wanted to kill him, how could he not have made preparations in advance?
He stamped his foot down, and the tree on his forehead grew taller and taller, growing stronger and stronger. Its roots pierced into the surface of the River of Forgetfulness, and he landed on top of the Bridge of Helplessness.
As soon as the osmanthus tree came into contact with the River of Forgetfulness, it immediately swayed and emitted the power of the Law Realm.
Provoked by this power, the dark clouds in the sky flew into a rage, and the fourth lightning bolt struck down.
Whoosh!
The moment it descended, the osmanthus tree drilled into the Primordial Qi Pearl and fused with it.
It hid, but the lightning didn't stop. The violent lightning struck the blood-yellow seawater, and the space within a thousand miles was directly shattered, and a huge crack appeared.
The Great Dao of Life and Death in the Book of Life and Death couldn't help but shake a little, and its power was somewhat lacking.
Although it was only the fourth tribulation of the Law Realm, it was attracted by Su Yin and Saint Toad Osmanthus, and was provoked by the former. Its power was so great that it wasn't inferior to the full-strength attack of the Golden Crow Sage.
Because of this, the Book of Life and Death was severely damaged, and the light on its surface dimmed a lot.
"Haha!" Su Yin's eyes lit up, and he immediately shouted, "Senior Rushou, help me stop them!"
"Alright!"
At this moment, the Five Elements Sage had already arrived in front of them. Five mountains crashed down, blocking the path of Yama-Kings and the others.
"Great Dao of Life and Death, refine it for me!"
Knowing that the time was fleeting, Su Yin didn't waste any time. He leaped in front of the Book of Life and Death and punched it down.
This Dharma treasure had almost killed him, and its power was too great. Once it was successfully refined, they would have another Law Realm expert on their side!
The fist intent condensed from the grand thought of man conquering the heavens, coupled with Su Yin's cultivation of the Law Realm, shook the Book of Life and Death, and its light became even weaker.
After being bombarded by the lightning, its spirituality had weakened greatly. How could it withstand his full-strength attack?
However, no matter what, it was still a Law Realm Dharma treasure. Although it couldn't withstand it, it was quickly retreating. It seemed that Su Yin couldn't do anything to it in a short period of time.
"Let's see how many lightning tribulations you can withstand!"
Su Yin couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense. He took out the osmanthus tree again and attracted the fifth lightning bolt.
He couldn't care less about whether Saint Toad Osmanthus would take advantage of him or not. He had to refine this thing first!
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Lightning fell from the sky like a waterfall, bombarding the Sea of Forgetfulness and the Book of Life and Death.
At this moment, the Law Realm Tribulation was completely enraged. It was one thing for the two to break through at the same time, but they were provoking it time and time again. Most importantly, the sea and the book were covering it up …
They were looking down on the majesty of the Heavenly Dao!
"No …"
Knowing the young man's goal, Yama was anxious. He wanted to rush over to stop him, but he was immediately forced back by the Five Elements Sage.
Without the Book of Life and Death, he was at most on par with the Golden Crow Sage. He couldn't resist Rushou and the others at all.
Too lazy to be bothered by the other party's rage, Zhang Xuan swiftly released the fifth bolt of lightning. At this moment, the Book of Life and Death was already as dim as a plucked rooster. However, the might of the Book of Life and Death was still there. It was still far from being enough to assimilate it.
However, this Dharma treasure couldn't be refined. The Sea of Forgetfulness was already showing signs of collapse from the impact of the lightning, and it would collapse at any time.
"Collect!"
Knowing that the opportunity had come, the Essence Energy Pearl spun and immediately collected the sea that stretched for thousands of miles.
"Rumble!"
As if sensing that it was being suppressed, the Sea of Forgetfulness continued to tremble, as if it would burst out at any moment.
In an instant, the ground shook within the Essence Energy Pearl as if an earthquake was occurring.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know … It feels like the entire world is going out of control!"
…
The disciples of the Cangqiong Sacred Ground stared at one another in confusion.
"This is one of the Yellow Springs Sage's main bodies, the Sea of Forgetfulness. The Sacred Master must have been fighting with the Yellow Springs Sage to suppress it here temporarily."
The old man who had communicated with Su Yin earlier suddenly came to a realization. His eyes lit up, and he shouted, "Everyone, let's suppress this artifact together and erase the will on it to resolve the Sacred Master's problem!"
"Alright!"
Those who were in the Cangqiong Sacred Ground were all loyal believers. Upon hearing that they could help the Cangqiong Sacred Ground, none of them hesitated.
How terrifying was the combined might of hundreds of millions of experts?
Putting aside the Golden Crow Sage, even a cultivator like the Cangqiong Sacred Ground wouldn't dare to face the Sea of Forgetfulness head-on. Thus, before the Sea of Forgetfulness could struggle, it lost its spirit and collapsed in the Cangqiong Pearl, giving up all resistance.
"This …"
After keeping the Sea of Forgetfulness, Su Yin was still thinking about how to erase the will and refine it. He didn't expect the believers of the Cangqiong Sacred Ground to complete the task first. He was dumbfounded.
They are too enthusiastic!
However, in the blink of an eye, he understood.
The Cangqiong Sacred Ground and the Yellow Springs Sage were like heaven and earth. Most of the time, they were opposite. Because of this, the believers naturally thought that their Sacred Master was fighting with the Yellow Springs Sage.
Thus, when they saw the Sea of Forgetfulness, they felt disgusted from the bottom of their hearts. Naturally, they helped him settle it!
"Lightning, continue!"
Without the resistance of the Sea of Forgetfulness, Su Yin's strength rose again. The sixth Lightning Tribulation was quickly attracted and continued to strike the Book of Life and Death.
Seeing that the artifact was getting weaker and weaker and would be destroyed at any time, Yama, who was stopped by the Five Elements Sage, couldn't help but shout, "Chan Gui, what are you waiting for?!"
At this time, Chan Gui had already passed the third Lightning Tribulation. She was circulating her energy to heal her injuries. At the same time, she was secretly attracting lightning as thick as a strand of hair.
Su Yin had attracted the lightning with the help of the Osmanthus Tree. Naturally, she didn't need to pass the tribulation anymore. The danger was greatly reduced.
"I am using the power of the Book of Life and Death to block the lightning for us. If you are confident that you can block the remaining three, you can try …" Su Yin said sinisterly.
Indeed, after hearing this, Saint Chan Gui gritted her teeth. "I … am seriously injured. After I recover, I will come and help …"
It wasn't that she didn't want to help, but as the main body of this Lightning Tribulation, it was very beneficial for her if someone diverted the lightning!
"…" Yama's face turned pale.
Since she said this, it was obvious that she didn't want to interfere.
He and his fellow disciples had taken action to save her. In the end, when there was a problem here, she didn't want to help …
It was indeed a plastic friendship.
Without the threat of Chan Gui, Yama and the others were stopped by the Five Elements Sage and couldn't rush over in a short period of time. Su Yin laughed and attracted the seventh Lightning Tribulation.
After four consecutive attacks that were comparable to the full strength of a Seventh Grade Sage, the Book of Life and Death lost its previous power and completely dimmed.
Knowing that the time was ripe, Su Yin didn't hesitate. "Keep!"
The Origin Energy Pearl appeared once more and swallowed the Book of Life and Death.
Hundreds of millions of believers made a move once more, and in just a short moment, the spirit contained within was forcefully wiped out.
"No …"
Feeling his will being wiped out in an instant, Yama spurted a mouthful of blood. His body jolted, and he was severely injured.
His teacher and his fellow disciples had spent a lot of effort and resources on this artifact. He thought that he would be able to dominate the world with it, but who would have thought that it would be snatched away in less than ten minutes?
"I can't let the Origin Energy Pearl fuse with these two artifacts for now. Otherwise, I won't be able to overcome the lightning tribulation once I make a breakthrough …"
Su Yin wasn't in a hurry to assimilate the Sea of Forgetfulness and the Book of Life and Death.
These two artifacts were beyond grade-6, and if they were fused with the Origin Energy Pearl, he would be able to swiftly raise his cultivation to the level of Rule. However, if that were to happen, he would be unable to control the lightning tribulation in the sky.
He had to overcome it first and obtain the reward first.
Understanding this point, Zhang Xuan turned to the side and said, "There are two more lightning bolts left. One for you, and one for me. The lightning tribulation might be dangerous, but you should know that there are benefits to facing it head-on!"
Knowing that there was no other choice, Saint Toad Laurel could only nod. "Alright!"
Boom!
The eighth lightning bolt descended. She gritted her teeth and faced it head-on while Su Yin faced the final lightning bolt.
Regardless of whether it was the Four-Nine Lightning Tribulation or the Nine-Nine Lightning Tribulation, the most dangerous was the final lightning bolt. It was the most powerful and the most difficult to deal with. However, in comparison, the benefits were also the greatest.
After being struck by the lightning bolt, Su Yin immediately felt as if his muscles were being torn apart. Under the tearing of the lightning bolt, his body could collapse at any moment.
"After going through the tempering of the Great Dao of Life and Death, I was reborn from the ashes. A mere lightning bolt wants to kill me?"
Su Yin mustered all of the strength in his body. Vigorous Zhen Yuan energy filled his body as he punched out.
The Human Emperor Swordsmanship, Origin Energy Pearl, Heaven Measuring Ruler, True Dragon Sword, Fist Saint's Great Dao, Great Dao of Life and Death, twenty-seven Great Dao of Ancient Sages …
Magic treasures and comprehension flowed continuously in his body.
After an unknown period of time, he felt that the lightning tribulation had passed its peak and was beginning to weaken. Su Yin no longer resisted. All of the pores on his body opened wide as he madly absorbed the raging lightning bolts in front of him.
Rumble!
The ninth lightning bolt was instantly devoured by him.
The violent energy wreaked havoc, immediately blasting all of the cells in his body. His bones exploded, and his entire body seemed to have self-destructed. It was incomparably miserable. Even his soul suffered great damage.
Although his physical body had reached the Realm of Law and could forcefully devour the ninth lightning tribulation with brute force, he still could not withstand it. Once again, his life and death were out of his control.
At this moment, the ninth lightning bolt disappeared. The Nine-Nine Lightning Tribulation had passed. The sky cleared up, and a huge cloud flew over.
Successfully breaking through to the Realm of Law was like entering the Saint Realm. There would be a reward from heaven and earth.
Seeing this, Saint Toad Laurel, who had withstood the eighth lightning tribulation and was severely injured, rushed over.
As soon as he flew out, he saw an Undying Bird and a Qilin in front of him.
Dahei and Xiao Wu had not fought all this while because they were waiting for this moment. Although their strength was only at the peak of Grade Six, they could still easily contend against the severely injured Toad Laurel.
Rumble!
In the blink of an eye, one person and the Three Beasts fought together. Violent energy flowed everywhere.
Ignoring them, Su Yin endured the pain and flew toward the cloud.
Whoosh!
Endless energy in the cloud turned into nourishing medicinal liquid and drilled into his body, fusing into his muscles and bones.
The lightning that was still wreaking havoc in his body seemed to have been tamed. It obediently flowed within his body, becoming a part of his zhenyuan. At the same time, his destroyed muscles and bones recovered at a rate visible to the naked eye. His aura grew stronger and stronger, more and more vigorous.
Of course, he did it on purpose to get injured when he forcefully devoured the lightning bolts. His goal was to obtain more rewards, and at the same time, to integrate the power of lightning into his body.
As expected, he succeeded!
The Nirvana Rebirth had allowed his physical body to reach Grade Seven primary, and after devouring the lightning bolts and the rewards, his physical body had reached Grade Seven pinnacle. He was already on par with the Golden Crow Sage and Yama King.
With a punch, the three energies of life and death, fairness, and the will of man revolved around him, forming a domain in the blink of an eye. However, it was only around one li in diameter. It was clearly incomparable to the domain of the Golden Crow Sage and the others.
"The laws of the physical body are still slightly weaker than the laws of the Great Path. It's no wonder why the Ancient Beast Court was destroyed …"
He was currently using the method of the Divine Beast Clan to break through the laws, similar to the Xiezhi and the Dragon Emperor in the Ancient Era. He did not walk the path of the Great Path.
His strength was slightly weaker.
But even so, he was still a true Law Realm cultivator. He was far from someone who the likes of Naihe and Meng Po could compare to.
"It's time to settle the score …"
A glint flashed across Zhang Xuan's eyes as he turned to look at Toad Laurel, who was fighting with Xiao Wu and Dahei.
Even though she was severely injured, she was still a Law Realm cultivator who had undergone the Lightning Tribulation. She still had the upper hand against the two of them.
"You'll be the one then …" Zhang Xuan's eyes gleamed.
In the Firmament, the Golden Crow was a Law Realm cultivator, and Xue Qianqiu was a Law Realm cultivator as well. If this fellow were to join the fray, they would have four Law Realm cultivators. Even if Zhang Xuan had made a breakthrough, it would still be difficult for him to stand against them!
So … he had to take her life while she was down!
Not to mention, if he obtained the Dao of Nether Fluorescence, he would be able to forge another Origin Energy Pearl.
Zhang Xuan took a step forward and arrived before Toad Laurel. He released his Dominion and punched the other party.
"No!"
Not expecting Zhang Xuan to recover so quickly, Toad Laurel narrowed her eyes in shock. She immediately felt a transcendent force crushing down on her.
Heartbreak, Great Yin, and other powers were completely useless in front of this Great Dao, unable to exert any effect.
"No …" Her face paled as she cried out in agony.
Kacha!
Her chest caved in. Following which, the fist pierced through her organs, creating a massive hole.
However, as a Law Realm cultivator, her vitality was extremely strong, so she did not die.
Su Yin's eyebrows shot up as he charged forward once more.
Not daring to face him head-on, Toad Laurel turned around and fled.
Su Yin released his Dominion, and Toad Laurel's speed immediately came to a halt. It was as if she was a bug sealed in amber.
Boom!
After sealing the other party, Su Yin punched again.
This time, he used up all his strength. Once he landed, even if Toad Laurel had broken through to the Law Realm, she would still die. She would become the Law Realm cultivator with the shortest lifespan in the history of the Celestial World!
"Stop!"
Just then, a cold shout rang out. Following which, a huge force tore through space, and three figures suddenly appeared.
They were the Firmament Saint, Yellow Spring, and Martial Sage who had chased after him previously!
The three of them had received the news and rushed over from the Firmament Realm. The moment they arrived, they saw that not only had Su Yin broken through, but he was also killing Toad Laurel. Their expressions changed, and the Firmament Saint immediately slapped down.
The air churned, and the world collapsed. Su Yin felt that when his Dominion came into contact with the other party's power, it was like an egg hitting a rock. He could not withstand it.
They were both in the Law Realm, but this person was still much stronger than him.
"Heh!"
Su Yin raised his eyebrows and shouted. Then, he punched out.
The power of the Law Realm combined with the lightning in his body turned into a huge rainbow that instantly clashed.
At the same time, the Essence Energy Pearl flew out from his forehead and smashed down on the heavily injured Toad Laurel.
This was the best chance to kill this person. Otherwise, once she stabilized her strength and recovered from her injuries, it would not be so easy to kill her.
"You are courting death …"
Firmament Saint did not expect that this person would still have the time to continue killing when he personally made a move. He was so angry that his face turned ashen. His palm tore through space and pressed down.
In the blink of an eye, his five fingers seemed to have turned into five mountains with the power to crush everything. When Su Yin's Dominion came into contact with them, it was immediately torn apart at a visible speed.
"No matter who comes today, she has to die …"
Su Yin roared. The Essence Energy Pearl turned into a ten-mile radius and smashed down. At the same time, he communicated with the pearl.
"Everyone, lend me your power. I want to deal with Yellow Spring …"
"Alright!"
All the believers in the Essence Energy Pearl believed in him and released the power in their bodies.
The Forgotten River Ocean and the Book of Life and Death suppressed Yellow Spring. If they were not fighting him, who were they fighting?
Boom!
Toad Laurel was already heavily injured. How could he withstand the full force of the Essence Energy Pearl? He exploded on the spot and was sucked into the space. At the same time, Su Yin felt an endless amount of power entering his body through the Artifact.
Creak! Creak!
His body swelled up. He was only about 1.8 meters before, but now he was more than ten meters tall. He had become a giant.
Feeling the abundant strength, which was many times stronger than his when he had just broken through, Su Yin was so excited that his eyes turned red. At the same time, he was secretly glad.
Fortunately, he did not borrow this power. Otherwise, his peak Rank-6 physical body would not be able to withstand it. Even though he had broken through to the Precept Realm, he still felt a little torn and would explode at any time.
"Break!"
Su Yin raised his fist and punched the five fingers in the air.
Rip!
The void collapsed.
At this moment, there was no need for Dominion or Precept Realm. He used the most invincible brute force and the firm belief of hundreds of millions of people to win.
"You … You want my believers to give up their strength for you? How is this possible … "
The Cangqiong Saint was stunned. He felt like he was going crazy.
Shouldn't the believers that he had spent tens of thousands of years to nurture listen to him?
In just a few minutes, they were kidnapped and even helped the other party to beat him up … What the hell was going on?
Boom!
The two powerful forces collided. Su Yin retreated a few hundred meters before he swung the Essence Energy Pearl again.
This time, it was not aimed at the Cangqiong Saint. Instead, it was aimed at Yama, Meng Po, and the others who were fighting with the Five Elements Saint.
The energy surged, and the world seemed to darken.
"Retreat!"
Yama and the others paled when they knew the power of this punch. They no longer cared about fighting and quickly retreated. Su Yin took the opportunity to grab the River of Forgetfulness and Limbo and put them into the Essence Energy Pearl.
Following that, the believers of the Cangqiong Saint Ground suppressed the two of them.
As expected of the Cangqiong Saint … Not only did he take away the Sea of Forgetfulness and the Book of Life and Death, he even captured the two of them … Would the Yellow Springs cry?
Of course, what they did not know was whether the Yellow Springs would cry or not. Su Yin might not know, but their Cangqiong Saint Ground would definitely cry.
Hu!
After doing all of that, Su Yin tore open space. He stood in front of the Five Elements Saint and entered the tear.
"Cangqiong, Yellow Springs, Martial Saint, we'll meet again. If you want to continue hunting me down, then let's fight to the death!"
Even though Zhang Xuan could fight against the Cangqiong Saint Ground for a short period of time with the help of the believers, his true strength was still lacking.
Not to mention, the Yellow Springs and Martial Saint Ground were still around. It was best for him to leave first.
As for why he captured Limbo and the River of Forgetfulness, it was because the Yellow Springs would have to think twice before killing him. This way, he would have more space to live.
"Stay here!"
The Cangqiong Saint Ground made a grabbing motion in the direction that Su Yin had fled in. However, as soon as he arrived, he felt a surge of energy rushing toward him.
When he clashed with the energy, he could not help but take half a step back. His face turned extremely ugly.
Earlier, Su Yin had only used a small portion of his strength. He had hidden most of it here, waiting for the Cangqiong Saint Ground to suffer.
"The two of you, why aren't you making a move yet? Are you going to let him continue growing?"
Seeing the Yellow Springs and the Martial Saint standing by the side without moving, the Cangqiong Saint Ground raised his eyebrows.
"Alright!"
The two strongest experts in the world stepped forward at the same time. A powerful force immediately tore the space apart. The three of them entered the tear and appeared above a mountain in the next moment.
Su Yin, who had just escaped, was floating in the air not too far away. His body had reverted back to his original size, and he was panting heavily.
After all, the energy provided by the believers did not belong to him. Even though it was powerful, it was still quite a burden.
"I didn't think that the young man I didn't pay much attention to before … has already become so powerful!"
The Yellow Springs took a step forward. "However, this is the end!"
To others, peak grade-7 was the peak of the world. However, to him, it was nothing.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill Limbo and River of Forgetfulness?"
Su Yin took a few steps back.
"After killing them, I'll think of a way to revive them …" The Yellow Springs smiled faintly.
He was not the only one who stepped forward. The Cangqiong Saint and the Martial Saint Ground took a step forward at the same time. Su Yin immediately felt a strong pressure pressing down on him.
The three of them represented the strongest fighting strength in the Myriad Worlds. Even though he had just achieved a breakthrough, he still felt powerless.
"Let's give it our all!"
The Five Elements Saint's expression was grave. The five mountains spun continuously, and they would completely merge at any moment.
Once they merged, the five elements would become one, and he would become a powerhouse of laws on par with the likes of the Yellow Springs. However, this also meant that four out of the five would die.
"Mm!" Su Yin also knew that this was the most dangerous moment. He could only give it his all. Taking a deep breath, the energy in his ki pearl surged through his body, and his injuries quickly healed.
Rumble!
Just as the great battle was about to break out, the world suddenly began to shake.
A unique force descended from the sky, and a rainbow light shrouded the sky. The entire world of immortals changed color in an instant.
"This is …"
Su Yin was stunned.
The rainbow light was similar to the reward for becoming a saint, but it was much more vast and gave off an intense pressure. Countless streams of light swam within it like golden carps.
"This is the sign of Heavenly Decay … The calamity that occurs once every ten thousand years is about to begin again!"
The Cangqiong Saint, the Yellow Springs Saint, and the Martial Saint all took a few steps back at the same time. They looked around vigilantly, their faces pale.
"What's going on?"
Su Yin looked curiously at Rushou when he saw the people who'd wanted to kill him retreat after seeing the changes in the sky.
Rushou, Gonggong, and the others were similarly ashen, their eyes filled with anxiety.
"It's Heavenly Decay!" Rushou transmitted.
Su Yin didn't understand. "What's that?"
He'd heard Yang Xuan and the others mention it before, but he still didn't understand what was going on.
"The Five Decays of Heaven and Man refer to the five signs of weakness that appear when one reaches the end of their life. Their clothes are dirty, their hair is wilted, their armpits are sweating, their body is stinky, and they are unhappy … Later, it was extended to the Celestial Realm!"
Knowing that the young man didn't understand, Rushou continued, "Let me ask you a question. If people age, will the world of immortals age as well?"
"How … how can the world age?" Su Yin was stunned.
Humans aged because there was a limit to the number of times the cells in their body could divide. Their bodily fluids would turn turbid and no longer clear. The world of immortals … was just a world. It didn't have any life, so why would it age?
Rushou shook his head. "The world of immortals provides immortal qi and all sorts of resources to the living beings that live in it. It's just like the life force of life … How can it be endless? The more life forms it hosts, the more it will age! "
Su Yin jolted.
He had heard this theory from his teacher, Agricultural Saint.
If a piece of land was planted with the same crop, it would age and lose its fertility. Could it be … that the world of immortals was the same?
"Once one ages to the limit, the Heavenly Decay will appear … and this sign is the rainbow glow before us!"
Rushou continued. "Once this thing appears, the world will be cleansed by the power of the laws. Saints, in particular, will bear the brunt of it and suffer terrible deaths every time … The Heavenly Decay is like the world of immortals sending out immune cells to purge the parasites that are harmful to the body. It's a small cycle every ten thousand years, and a major cycle every fifty thousand years … And now, it's time for the major cycle!
"Back then, the Primordial Beast Court was destroyed in the major cycle! Not even those in the realm of laws were spared. The reason we survived back then was because our wills hadn't taken shape yet … "
"What … what do we do now?"
Su Yin couldn't help but ask, his body shaking.
The world of immortals was purging cultivators on its own. This was something he hadn't dared to imagine before.
Rushou said, "Let's leave this place first. The appearance of this thing means that the great upheaval is about to begin. Firmament and Nether are probably wary of each other and won't have the time to kill you …"
"Mm!" Su Yin looked at the three Masters of Laws in front of him and saw that they were wary of each other, afraid of being ambushed.
"Let's go!"
Knowing that Rushou was right, if he didn't leave now, when would he? He reached out with his palm, tore through space again, and entered.
As expected, Firmament, Nether, and the others exchanged wary glances and didn't give chase.
"Let's think about how to face the calamity first … See you later!" After a moment of silence, Firmament Saint waved his hand and turned to fly straight for the Mount Buzhou Sacred Ground.
Nether responded and also flew toward the Yellow Springs Sacred Ground.
Seeing them leave, the Martial Saint seemed to be thinking about something. He shook his head, and with a flicker of his body, he disappeared.
The Heavenly Decay had begun …
The true calamity of the world of immortals was about to arrive!
