Chapter 503: My Dao Is Not Alone, Where Is the Heavenly Tribulation?
Inside the Hall of Longevity, Gu Gong's eyes, burning with golden-red flames, after the initial shock, suddenly burst forth with an unprecedented brilliance.
"No! This isn't self-abolishment!"
His voice was trembling.
"This is…… this is time reversal! The new master…… he is using a method I cannot comprehend to forcibly reverse his cultivation state back to the past!"
As a guardian of the Celestial Court, his insight far surpasses that of the Myriad Medicines Divine Lord and Tu Ke.
He perceived the fluctuation of that fleeting time law.
The new master is not destroying his own Dao.
He is…… reforging his own Dao!
Gu Gong's judgment was only half correct.
Gu Yuan did not simply reverse his cultivation back to the past.
Those 122 immortal meridians did not truly dissipate; instead, they transformed into the purest Great Dao imprint, deeply engraved upon his Dao fruit, temporarily falling into dormancy.
In the inner world.
Gu Yuan sat cross-legged, feeling the familiar yet unfamiliar power of the Supreme Saint Realm within his body.
It was very weak.
But its foundation was unprecedentedly solid.
"Then, let's begin."
He opened his eyes, and with a thought.
Above God Island, the Hong Meng Dao Qi and Source Dao Qi, pouring down like a celestial river of the nine heavens, seemed to receive some summon, transforming into two purple-gold divine dragons that frenziedly poured into his body.
This time, he did not use the power of his inner world, nor did he analyze or transform it.
He simply acted as a purest vessel, following the cultivation method of the Primeval Immortal Realm, to absorb and exhale.
Boom!
The first bottleneck was easily shattered.
The eighteenth stage, the Supreme Realm!
The entire process didn't even raise a ripple, as simple as drinking water.
The crowd watching outside God Island had gone numb.
They watched Gu Yuan's aura leap from the Supreme Saint Realm straight to the Supreme Realm, not even blinking.
However, Gu Yuan did not stop.
More Hong Meng Dao Qi was swallowed by him into his body.
His aura continued to rise in an unreasonable manner.
Early Supreme Realm……
Mid Supreme Realm……
Peak Supreme Realm……
Boom!
The second bottleneck was again shattered.
The nineteenth stage, the Heavenly Emperor Realm!
According to the cultivation system of the Primeval Immortal Realm, he can now begin to condense his own Heavenly Emperor Dao fruit.
In Gu Yuan's sea of consciousness, an illusory Dao fruit began to appear, entwined with imperial way dragon aura, exuding an aura that governs all laws.
This Dao fruit was flawless and immensely powerful.
Any heavenly pride who could condense such a Dao fruit would be proud for all ages.
Gu Yuan looked at it, but merely shook his head lightly.
"Too weak."
The Heavenly Emperor Dao fruit condensed according to the Primeval Immortal Realm's laws, compared to his own Dao fruit based on a complete world, is like the difference between a glass bead and a star.
But he did not reject it; instead, he gently fused this illusory Dao fruit into his own dormant natal Dao fruit.
After doing all this, Gu Yuan's cultivation steadily remained at the peak of the Heavenly Emperor Realm.
Only one step away from the True Immortal realm.
According to reason, next he only needs to steadily continue absorbing energy, solidifying the Heavenly Emperor Dao fruit completely, and then he can naturally enter the True Immortal realm.
In the Primeval Immortal Realm, breaking through from the Heavenly Emperor Realm to the True Immortal Realm is a pure grinding process, a quantitative change leading to qualitative change, and will not attract heavenly tribulation.
Because a True Immortal, although powerful, still lies within the capacity of the heavenly dao's laws.
Only attempting to break through to the Sovereign Immortal Realm, striving to transcend the heavenly dao and place one's own Dao above worldly laws, will invite the heavenly dao's destructive blow.
However, Gu Yuan, once again, shattered everyone's understanding.
He slowly rose to his feet, took a step forward, his form directly piercing the Chaos Immortal Bell Seal laid by Gu Cangsheng, appearing in the vast starry expanse of the Primeval Immortal Realm beyond God Island.
"What…… what is he going to do?"
The Myriad Medicines Divine Lord watched this scene, a sense of foreboding welling up in his heart.
Only seen, Gu Yuan hovered in the cold cosmic void, raising his head, his gaze seeming to pierce endless spacetime, staring into the dim depths where the supreme heavenly dao will that governs the operation of the entire Primeval Immortal Realm resides.
"I, will undergo tribulation."
His voice was not loud, yet it clearly entered the ears of every Sovereign Immortal powerhouse present.
Tribulation?
What tribulation?
The Myriad Medicines Divine Lord and Tu Mian looked at each other, faces full of question marks.
Even Gu Cangsheng and Gu Gong wore puzzled expressions.
In the starry sky, a dead silence.
The Heavenly Dao's will in the Primeval Immortal Realm seemed not to hear his words, offering no response.
Gu Yuan saw this and smiled.
"Ignoring me?"
"Do you think I'm unworthy?"
He extended a finger, pointing far toward the edge of the Heavenly Dome, toward the dazzling sea of stars formed by countless galactic rivers.
"I, Gu Yuan, stand here today, seeking a tribulation."
"This tribulation shall be measured by an entire universe."
"If you do not respond, I... will have Grandfather smash your broken Heavenly Dao."
His tone was very calm, yet carried an undeniable madness.
The moment his words fell.
Boom—!!!
The entire Primeval Immortal Realm shuddered violently!
One person demanded from the Heavenly Dao a Heavenly Tribulation capable of destroying an entire universe!
This is no longer a mere crossing of tribulation.
This is forcing the Heavenly Dao to kill itself!
Above the Gu Family Divine Island.
Gu Cangsheng watched his grandson's actions, and his mouth twitched harshly.
"You little bastard..."
He couldn't help but curse, yet in his old eyes flickered unprecedented excitement and pride.
This is truly my grandson!
This lawless vigor is exactly the same as when he was young!
No, it's even wilder than he was back then!
Then, as the grandfather, I naturally must voice my opinion.
"Well said, Yuan'er."
"This time, Heavenly Dao, unleash yourself fully; I guarantee I won't intervene!"
"Yuan'er, go ahead boldly; I will handle everything!"
Rumble—
Above the Heavenly Dome, endless tribulation clouds gathered from all directions.
It was no longer a dark cloud, but a sea of violet‑black thunder formed from pure law of destruction…
All‑Heaven Divine Thunder!
Purple‑Sky Divine Thunder!
Nine‑Heavens Silent‑Extinction Divine Thunder!
……
Countless legendary thunder punishments that existed only in ancient texts manifested at this moment, perfectly merging into a force that could make even the mightiest turn pale… the Final Tribulation Punishment!
The pressure of the Heavenly Tribulation was as heavy as a mountain.
Across the entire Primeval Immortal Realm, the light of countless stars dimmed under this pressure.
In star domains nearer to the Gu Family Divine Island, weaker beings could not even stand steady, forced to kneel and tremble under this heavenly might.
"Is... is this really... a Heavenly Tribulation?"
