Chapter 191
Wushi Dadi's gaze rested on the vast starry sky, and he could not help but sigh.
It was just unknown whether, after so much time had passed, he could contend with Pangu Tianzun; when he last saw the other party upon leaving Qiyi Shijie, their cultivation had reached that of a peak Immortal King!
And he was not far from the Immortal King Tribulation, so he made up his mind, and a power strong to the extreme erupted from his whole body!
The two Great Daos of time and space intertwined into dazzling light, and an unparalleled terror was brewing!
At the end of the star sea, the Chaos churned like boiling water, and even the most ancient stars had extinguished, leaving only eternal darkness and void!
Wushi stood with his hands behind his back, every step he took stirring up the waves of the River of Time. The ancient bronze bell suspended above his head trembled slightly, and dark golden light flowed through the mottled cracks on the bell body, as if sealing the wailing of the Zhutian Wanjie!
He lifted his eyes to look into the depths of the void, his gaze penetrating endless star regions. Before his words had faded, the entire universe suddenly fell into absolute dead silence; the wind stopped, the light extinguished, the Dao vanished, and even the flowing sound of the River of Time came to an abrupt halt!
Darkness eroded from all directions like ink, and wherever it passed, stars annihilated and laws disintegrated. Wushi's figure gradually blurred in the darkness, and even the radiance of the Chaos Bell was swallowed. This was no ordinary darkness, but the embodiment of the Great Dao's silence, intending to completely erase existence itself from heaven and earth!
Wushi tapped the bell body with his finger, and a clear, resonant bell toll suddenly exploded. The sound waves turned into tangible golden ripples, actually tearing a crack in the absolute darkness!
Within the crack, an inconceivable scene was revealed: the first ray of light of the creation of the world, the mournful cries of prehistoric beasts, the sacrificial fires of ancient ancestors... this was the eternal time swallowed by the eternal silence, now forcibly summoned back by the bell toll!
The darkness twisted violently, turning into a giant mouth intending to swallow him. Wushi stood with his eyes closed, letting his body be eroded by the darkness. Just as the last shred of white clothing was about to disappear!
"Extinguish!"
The Chaos Bell suddenly expanded, the bell mouth hanging upside down, sucking the entire darkness into it. The surface of the bell body was instantly covered in spiderweb-like cracks, yet it was ultimately not burst open.
The tribulation clouds did not disperse; the void suddenly revealed billions of crystalline threads, each one entwined with fragments of time. These threads intertwined into a net, shrouding Wushi within.
The moment the threads tightened, Wushi's temples were dyed frost-white at a speed visible to the naked eye. His figure began to blur, at times turning into an infant in swaddling clothes, at times changing into a decrepit old man, and even completely dissipating in one segment—this was the backlash of the River of Time, intending to completely scramble the traces of his existence!
Wushi pointed his fingers like a sword, drawing an arcane trajectory in the void. Wherever the trajectory passed, the threads of time snapped one after another, and the shattered time fragments actually condensed into a transparent long blade in his palm!
The blade body reflected himself in countless times and spaces: the youth attaining enlightenment by the side of Yaochi, the young man fighting bloody battles at Undying Mountain, the Supreme who sat in Zishan to deter the Forbidden Zones...
"Sever!"
The blade light swept across, and all chaotic time lines were forcibly unified. The white hair turned black, the wrinkles smoothed out, and that white-clad figure re-solidified, adding a touch of indifference that transcended time compared to before.
A roar came from the depths of the tribulation clouds, and nine giant bronze gates appeared out of thin air. Ferocious Immortal Ancient beasts were carved on the doors, and viscous, blood-like red light seeped from the door cracks.
The first gate swung open, and a three-headed, six-armed golden giant walked out, holding sun and moon wheels, with ninety-nine burning stars suspended behind his back.
From the second gate stepped a withered old Daoist wrapped in chains, each chain tethering a roaring Supreme head.
The third gate...
Until the ninth gate opened, the one who walked out was actually a white-clad man with the exact same appearance as Wushi, only his eyes flowed with monstrous demonic energy!
Wushi shattered the galaxy, the Chaos Bell turning into the size of a mountain and hanging above his head. His left hand formed the Sun and Moon Seal, his right hand formed the Universe Formula, actually fighting the nine great tribulation shadows simultaneously!
The golden giant's head was shattered by his palm, the withered old Daoist's chains were torn apart by him, and the demonized Wushi's offensive was returned in kind with the same moves...!
Blood rain fell into the void, each drop turning into crimson thunder. When the last tribulation shadow collapsed, the nine bronze gates suddenly merged, turning into a black hole that swallowed all things!
The black hole twisted and expanded, finally exploding into billions of points of light. When the points of light re-condensed, a flawless figure stepped out of the light; the other party's brows were like distant mountains, their eyes contained galaxies, and their whole body was entwined with the chains of the three thousand Great Daos.
This was the Wushi imprint copied by the Heavenly Dao, yet it was even more powerful than his true self. The Dao Tribulation incarnation waved their hand lightly, and the Chaos Bell actually broke free from Wushi's control, flying backward into their hand!
When the bell tolled, time in the entire star region began to flow backward, Wushi's white clothes gradually faded, as if intending to beat him back to his mortal body before he had cultivated!
"Fight!"
The real Wushi did not retreat but advanced, tearing open the flowing-backward time with his bare hands.
His fist collided with the Dao Tribulation incarnation's palm print; there was no brilliant radiance, no deafening roar, only the annihilation of the purest Dao laws!
Every clash caused galaxies to annihilate, and every time they brushed past each other, ancient realms collapsed in the aftermath!
When the battle reached a state of madness, Wushi suddenly withdrew his hand, letting the Dao Tribulation incarnation pierce his chest with a palm.
"You are, after all, only a shadow."
His blood-stained fingers pressed onto the center of the incarnation's brow, and a wisp of Chaos Qi was transferred from his fingertips. The Dao Tribulation incarnation's pupils suddenly contracted, their body began to disintegrate, turning into rain of light across the sky and merging into Wushi's body.
The moment the rain of light fell, a crisp sound like glass shattering came from the depths of the universe. Wushi's physical body began to blur, Great Dao runes appeared on every inch of his skin, and galaxy radiance flowed between his hair strands!
As the Chaos Bell fell with a mournful cry, it suddenly stopped before hitting the ground.
A sigh sounded in the void.
"Names can be forgotten, karma can be severed, only this Dao...!"
The figure that should have completely disappeared re-condensed, more solid than before. He reached out to catch the Chaos Bell, and when the bell tolled again, it shattered the world!
The tribulation clouds dispersed, and the galaxy was reshaped. Wushi stood at the center of the reorganized universe, billions of golden Great Dao paths spreading out beneath his feet. He reached out to stroke the bell body, the cracks were all repaired, and a roar like a prehistoric beast came from within the bell!
This Immortal King Tribulation was finally passed; he stood with his back to the world, as if standing with his back to all living beings, his whole body flashing with unparalleled Immortal Light!
Now that he had stepped into the Immortal King realm, he was already on par with the protagonist Ye Fan, but compared to Feng Qingyang, there was still a huge gap!
Of course, Wushi was unaware of all this; his gaze rested in the void, and he let out a sigh!
Subsequently, his figure disappeared from here, and as for the traces left behind, it is estimated that no living being would dare to set foot in this place!
It was simply terrifying to the extreme!
Two of the Shrouding the Heavens Trio had become Immortal Kings, and Henren was naturally not far behind!
At the same time, Feng Qingyang slowly opened his eyes, looked at this heaven and earth, and said with emotion.
"After so much time has passed, I have finally touched the level of a Supreme Giant!"
But wanting to break through still required some distance; once he reached this realm, he would prepare to head to the Eerie Faction of the Soul River to investigate!
By the time he stepped into a realm above a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, he would completely destroy this place; it is estimated that it is not far off!
