Chapter 154: Succeed or Die Trying!

"The grace of the Ancestor, Lin Hao will never forget for all eternity!"

Lin Hao looked back and saw Lin Potian, whose head had sprouted dozens of strands of white hair and who looked slightly aged, yet wore a look of gratification. He instantly teleported before him, kowtowed, performed a grand salute, and spoke with the utmost reverence.

When that ray of blessing light merged into his body, Lin Hao had already known, and was moved beyond measure; the Ancestor had actually been willing to damage a million years of his own cultivation to perform the blessing for him, Lin Hao!

How could Lin Hao not be moved?

Lin Potian immediately pulled Lin Hao up through the air and said gratifiedly, "Hao, get up quickly. We are family; if the Ancestor doesn't help you, who will?"

Subsequently, Lin Potian flicked his sleeve, and the Burial Immortal Coffin appeared abruptly. Immortal Power surged like a tidal wave, pouring out from the coffin and staining the entire space with a faint Immortal radiance. The air was filled with heart-palpitating pressure and an aura of immortality!

"Ancestor, what is this coffin?"

Lin Hao's whole body shook violently, feeling a warm and powerful force enveloping him, constantly replenishing the void left by his recent breakthrough!

The coffin before his eyes was simply divine!

Lin Potian had already cast a barrier to prevent outside probing and whispered, "This is the Burial Immortal Coffin, a supreme treasure that seizes the creation of heaven and earth, with infinite Immortal Power! The Immortal Power in this Endless Divine Land is exhausted; you have just broken through to the Immortal Venerable realm, so it is just right for you to enter this Burial Immortal Coffin to stabilize your realm!"

Having said that, Lin Potian flicked his finger, and the lid of the Burial Immortal Coffin opened slowly. In an instant, it was as if ancient Immortal sounds were roaring, and Immortal Power surged out like a bursting river, transforming into Immortal Light that filled the sky and illuminating the surroundings as if in a dream!

Lin Hao only felt streams of extremely pure Immortal Power pouring into his body; his limbs, bones, and meridians were all emitting joyful hums under the nourishment of this power!

After witnessing the great power of the Burial Immortal Coffin, Lin Hao's gaze was fiery. He looked at the slowly opening, Immortal-light-overflowing Burial Immortal Coffin, took a deep breath, drew all the overflowing Immortal Spirit Qi into his chest, and was impatient to go inside!

At this moment, however, Lin Potian stopped Lin Hao.

"Hao, don't be in such a hurry to go in; the Ancestor has another question for you."

Lin Potian frowned slightly; there was one thing he had to ask Lin Hao clearly.

Lin Hao was puzzled, but he still stood still and cupped his hands, "Ancestor, what is it?"

Lin Potian's gaze was deep and his brows were locked tight as he spoke slowly: "Hao, how did you come to this Central Divine Land? And why has your realm improved so quickly? When we parted back then, you were only just a Great Emperor, right? But now, you are already an Immortal Venerable."

Lin Potian felt that Lin Hao's cultivation speed was simply ridiculously fast, constantly breaking all kinds of records!

One must know that his, Lin Potian's, cultivation speed was already extremely astonishing, almost unprecedented, but in front of this descendant Lin Hao, it was reduced to mere dregs!

Upon hearing this, Lin Hao's expression turned stern. Countless memories surfaced in his mind, and then he shook his head and said in a low voice:

"Ancestor, after becoming a Great Emperor, I kept searching for Brother Yi's location based on our bloodline. As I searched, I found this Endless Divine Land. Originally, I couldn't get in, but a giant hand reached out from inside and grabbed me in!"

Then, Lin Hao changed from his low tone and said with slight excitement: "Ancestor, do you know who it was that grabbed me in?"

"Who?"

"Your father!" Lin Hao blurted out without thinking, then added, "Our Lin Family's great-grandfather!"

Hearing this, Lin Potian's mind suddenly jolted. How could it be that God of Gods again?

"Did he say anything to you?" Lin Potian's voice couldn't help but rise a little.

Lin Hao shook his head, shrugged with a bitter smile, and said: "No, the great-grandfather just purified my bloodline, guided my cultivation for a few days, and then gave me a pill. Then my cultivation improved rapidly. At first, I was afraid that taking the pill would affect my foundation and be like pulling up seedlings to help them grow, but it was a needless worry; there were no side effects. But it wasn't entirely without side effects; if I really had to say..."

"It would be that I seem to have forgotten many things, sometimes clear-headed, sometimes not."

After listening, combined with Lin Hao's initial dazed state, Lin Potian understood!

The God of Gods definitely didn't have any good intentions!

Lin Potian snorted coldly: "You still call him great-grandfather? You were drugged by him, don't you know?"

Lin Hao looked blank, "No way, the great-grandfather is actually quite nice. He really did help me purify my bloodline and even guided my cultivation!"

"And he is also your..."

Seeing Lin Potian's complexion growing worse and worse, gloomy enough to drip water, Lin Hao didn't dare to continue.

At the same time, he was filled with confusion; why did the Ancestor seem to have such a deep grudge against the great-grandfather, looking so bitter and resentful?

"Go inside and stabilize your cultivation first." Lin Potian's heart was in chaos. After calming his mood, he revealed a soft expression and said gently.

"Yes!"

After Lin Hao responded, his figure flickered like a streak of light, and he plunged into the Burial Immortal Coffin without hesitation!

After settling Lin Hao, Lin Potian stood in place, his mind wandering, constantly lost in thought as he pondered recent events, muttering:

"Who is telling the truth, who is lying? I can't tell, I really can't tell!"

"Forget it, only strength is the absolute truth. As long as I have strength, all confusion will no longer be confusion!"

Subsequently, Lin Potian's expression became a bit firmer; he shook his head to stop thinking about the rest and stepped out of the barrier.

At this time, it happened to be the Domain Lord clone of the Holy Emperor distributing the rewards for the Eastern Profound Domain Grand Competition.

Lin Potian collected Lin Hao's share, and after greeting Yun Che and Li Chunfeng, he walked toward the distance...

Seeing this, the Holy Emperor didn't know where Lin Potian was going and hurriedly asked via voice transmission: "Young Master, where are you going?"

"To break through." Lin Potian spat out only two words.

"Young Master, wait for me if you are going to break through. I will protect your dharma once I finish distributing the rewards for these geniuses!"

The Holy Emperor hurriedly replied via voice transmission; he was currently in the identity of the Eastern Profound Domain Domain Lord, and it really wouldn't be good to leave without finishing presiding over the Grand Competition.

More importantly, if he left too far, that Domain Lord clone would lose its vitality and become extremely sluggish!

As the words fell, Lin Potian's footsteps did not stop; he continued walking forward and waved his hand while transmitting: "No need, I alone am enough."

Whoosh...!

Lin Potian instantly turned into light and left, arriving at a sea area.

"This is the place; I won't accidentally hurt anyone."

Lin Potian stood tall above the vast and boundless sea area, muttering to himself. His aura churned like a lonely island in the middle of the ocean. He suddenly raised his head, looked up at the firmament, shot two substantial rays of light from his eyes, and then triggered... the Heavenly Tribulation!

Rumble...!

Following a heaven-shaking thunderclap, which represented the Heavens agreeing to descend the lightning tribulation, Lin Potian formed seals with both hands and suddenly pushed a palm toward the sky!

In an instant, dark clouds gathered, lightning flashed, and the world changed color. The Heavenly Tribulation was triggered; lightning snakes slithered and wove into a giant lightning net, shrouding Lin Potian!

And at the same time, another tribulation cloud was also taking shape...

He was actually going to undergo the Immortal God Dual Venerable Tribulation all at once!

A one-time breakthrough to Immortal Venerable and God Venerable!

"Young Master, don't! Quickly cancel the Heavenly Tribulation!"

The Holy Emperor arrived at this moment, his scalp tingling in shock, his heart filled with trepidation, because the act of undergoing two tribulations at once was truly unwise and far too impulsive!

This is not as simple as one plus one; the superposition of two tribulations brings about a qualitative change!

Furthermore, no one has ever cultivated two Daos simultaneously and undergone the tribulations at the same time; no one knows the consequences this will bring...

"It can no longer be cancelled; it is success or death."

Lin Potian was very calm; if he becomes a dragon, he ascends to the heavens, if he becomes a snake, he crawls in the grass—whether he is a dragon or a snake, only he himself gets to decide!

Boom!

Lin Potian's entire cultivation erupted; instead of retreating, he advanced, his Immortal Power and Original Force surging together as he charged straight toward the sky-filling lightning net!

"Potian Dao!"

Lin Potian shouted loudly, his spiritual power surging wildly like a raging sea, his eyes flashing with an unyielding light as he stared directly at the lightning net pressing down from above!

Following a roar that shook the past and present, it was as if an ancient god awakened within his body, his power climbing to the extreme. He quickly formed seals with his hands, each seal containing world-destroying might, outlining mysterious totems in the void!

In an instant, the lightning net collided with his totems, erupting with a brilliant, dazzling light; the entire sea area was illuminated like broad daylight, and the waves were lifted ten thousand zhang high by this power, resembling a scene of the end of the world!

"Law of Heaven and Earth!"

Lin Potian quickly formed a seal with one hand, his figure swelling to one hundred thousand zhang, like an ancient god descending; he roared at the sky, his spiritual power boiling to the limit, and with a fierce wave of his hands, he frantically stirred the tribulation power of the two tribulation clouds; lightning snakes danced wildly, and lightning bolts intertwined to form a sea of thunder, surging toward him!

But Lin Potian's gaze was cold; instead of retreating, he advanced, his Immortal Power and Original Force manifesting into substance to form a dual-power shield that protected him firmly; the sea of thunder struck the shield, emitting a deafening roar, light splashing everywhere, yet it could not harm Lin Potian.

However, the Holy Emperor remained incomparably worried, his expression tense to the extreme; according to his observations, the tribulation Lin Potian was undergoing was also the eighty-one-fold Supreme Venerable Tribulation, and both the Immortal and God Venerable tribulations were Supreme Venerable Tribulations, which meant Lin Potian needed to endure a full one hundred and sixty-two bolts of Tribulation Lightning!

Such a vast quantity is enough to trigger a qualitative change!

"Young Master, I don't even know how you will withstand what follows; if it truly becomes impossible... I will intervene."

The Holy Emperor had already prepared to block the tribulation for Lin Potian at any moment, even at the cost of shattering his own Spirit Body.

Boom, boom, boom!

Lin Potian's lightning tribulation continued.
