Chapter 94

Above the Gu Family Divine Island, the two vast tribulation clouds have already accumulated to the extreme.

Within the chaos thunder sea, bolt after bolt of chaos divine thunder, as thick as mountains, rolled and roared; each flash seemed to want to return heaven and earth to chaos.

Within the nine-colored tribulation clouds, moreover, there appeared the phenomenon of dragons and phoenixes crying in unison, qilin galloping.

Upon the divine island, all Gu Family members nervously gazed up at the sky.

Deep within the divine island, in two valleys that were normally listed as forbidden grounds.

Gu Lin Tian and Jiang Rou sat cross-legged, their auras having risen to the peak.

Gu Lin Tian wore imperial robes, his countenance imposing.

Within him, the Heavenly Emperor Dao Fruit, nourished by that half of a true immortal Dao Fruit, had begun to transform toward the true immortal dao realm.

Behind him, a towering true immortal dharma aspect was slowly condensing.

And in another valley where a hundred flowers bloomed.

Jiang Rou wore a white robe, peerless in grace; on her face, beautiful enough to take one's breath away, she bore a faint, composed smile.

The dao foundation that had been damaged back then by forcibly fusing two laws.

Under the repair of the other half of the true immortal Dao Fruit, it not only returned to its former state, but even became more perfect than before.

The bottleneck that had troubled her for hundreds of thousands of years had long since vanished.

At this moment, she was launching the final assault toward the Heavenly Emperor realm she had long dreamed of.

At the highest point of the divine island, the Gu Family ancestor stood with hands behind his back; beside him was Gu Yuan, who had just emerged from seclusion.

"Grandpa, will Dad and Mom be alright?"

Gu Yuan gazed at the heaven-shaking, earth-shattering array in the sky, and still felt a bit uneasy in his heart.

Although he knew his own grandfather was ferociously formidable, having blown away more than one Heavenly Emperor tribulation.

But since it concerned close kin, he couldn't help but worry.

"Rest assured."

The ancestor patted his shoulder, wearing a confident smile.

"On your father's side, the true immortal tribulation cannot be aided by outsiders; he must bear it himself. Yet his foundation is deep, and he also has the support of the indestructible immortal body's origin and the Dao Fruit, making failure impossible."

"As for your mother..."

The ancestor glanced toward the direction where Jiang Rou was, the corners of his mouth slightly lifting.

"Have you forgotten how Grandpa did things back in Sanqian Zhou?"

Just then.

Boom——!!!

The chaos thunder sea in the sky launched the first attack!

A bolt, pitch-black throughout, seeming able to devour all things, tore through the Heavenly Dome, carrying the terrifying power to obliterate everything, and viciously slashed down toward the valley where Gu Lin Tian was.

The true immortal tribulation, the first bolt, has descended!

Gu Lin Tian's eyes snapped open, two divine lights bursting forth.

He rose to his full height, not dodging or evading, but actively marching forward to meet it.

"Good timing!"

With a long whistle, Gu Lin Tian threw a punch!

Imperial might blazed, his fist intent surged like a flood!

He actually intended to withstand this first true immortal tribulation bolt with his fleshly body!

Boom!!!

The collision of fist and thunder burst forth with blinding light, causing the whole heaven and earth to lose color.

The terrifying energy aftermath swept out like a tsunami.

Had the ancestor not set up a barrier in advance, the aftermath of this strike alone would be enough to raze a star domain spanning billions of miles to flat ground.

The smoke and dust dispersed.

Gu Lin Tian stood proudly in the void, his robes fluttering; although a trace of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, his aura did not drop but rose, becoming more refined.

He withstood the first true immortal tribulation bolt!

"Hahaha! Bring it on!"

Gu Lin Tian, filled with heroic vigor, actively charged into the chaos thunder sea, engaging the endless chaos divine thunder in the most primal and savage battle.

He sought to complete his final transformation in the baptism of the tribulation lightning.

And on the other side.

The nine-colored tribulation clouds also finally stirred.

"Yin——"

A soaring dragon's cry echoed through heaven and earth.

A colossal divine dragon formed of nine-colored thunder-light.

From the tribulation clouds it protruded a ferocious head, a pair of eyes larger than stars, icy cold, gazing down at Jiang Rou below.

"Hmph."

Just as that law-formed divine dragon was about to swoop down.

A disdainful cold snort issued from the ancestor's mouth.

"Ao......"

That divine dragon of law, which moments ago had been mighty and awe-inspiring.

Under the stunned gaze of everyone.

Its massive body...... began to dissipate bit by bit.

Finally, it transformed into the purest Nine-Colored Law Power, like a gentle stream, slowly pouring into Jiang Rou's body.

The whole process went smoothly and effortlessly.

Just like that.

Gu Lin Tian fought blood-soaked in the Chaotic Thunder Sea, shattering and reforming again and again, his life level teetering on the edge of life and death, wildly leaping.

As for Jiang Rou's side, it was like enjoying a top-tier cultivation experience.

Time passed second by second in the tense and eerie atmosphere.

Gu Lin Tian's True Immortal Tribulation had reached the white-hot stage.

In the Chaotic Thunder Sea, he was drenched in blood, his imperial robe already torn to shreds, revealing his strong body covered in cracks.

But his aura was like a flame constantly growing in a storm, becoming ever more terrifying and profound.

He had already withstood eighty bolts of Chaotic Divine Thunder, with only the final, most critical one left.

As long as he endures it, he will leap the Dragon Gate.

From then on, transcending humanity, he would become a True Immortal sharing the lifespan of heaven and earth!

As for Jiang Rou's side, the Heavenly Emperor Tribulation was drawing to a close.

The Nine-Colored Tribulation Clouds had become extremely thin, the Law Power within them almost completely absorbed by her.

Above her head, a crystal-clear, radiant Dao Fruit emitting supreme majesty was slowly forming.

The Heavenly Emperor Dao Fruit was about to condense!

The entire Primeval Immortal Realm fell into a suppressed silence because of the impending outcome.

Everyone knew that when those two tribulations ended,

it would be the Gu Family's true day of ruling the world.

From then on, in the Immortal Realm, there would no longer be any obvious tripartite balance of power.

Only the Gu Family, supreme above all!

The Ji Family.

Wan You True Immortal let out a faint sigh, and with a wave of his hand, a beam of immortal light flew out, turning into a messenger that shot toward the Ji Family's treasury.

"Convey my order: prepare three thousand catties of Nine Heavens Immortal Marrow and ten thousand stalks of Immortal Divine Lotus as a gift, to be sent to the Gu Family."

The palace-attired woman behind her shuddered upon hearing those words.

Nine Heavens Immortal Marrow and Immortal Divine Lotus—these are treasures that can lay the foundation for heavenly pride disciples.

One could even say that not much remains of the Ji Family's annual surplus.

Three thousand catties of Nine Heavens Immortal Marrow and ten thousand stalks of Immortal Divine Lotus, if properly used,

are enough to cultivate a being of the eighteenth level.

even if the Ji Family would need ten thousand years of accumulation.

Now, they actually have to take out this much as a gift for the Gu Family?

"Older sister, this……"

"Go."

Wan You True Immortal gave no explanation, merely waving his hand: "From now on, the Ji Family will take the Gu Family as its leader."

The palace-attired woman remained silent; she knew this was the wisest choice.
