Chapter 1717: The True Heavenly Stop

However, how could Gouchen know about this?

Although there were doubts in his heart, He Pingsheng still nodded: "Thank you for your concern, Heaven Emperor; the junior has already finished cultivating it!"

"Good, good, good... good, good, good..." Gouchen's face showed a solemnity he had never shown before: "Be cautious, be cautious!"

Just after saying this, a magical and majestic power fluctuated from Han Houzhi's body opposite.

Boom—

Boom—

In the infinitely dark void, at the position above Han Houzhi's head, ink-colored cloud energy suddenly gathered without warning.

The leaden clouds rolled in layers, with lightning flashing within them.

Looking from afar, it was like the end of the world.

Bolts of lightning with the power and sound of tearing the world kept gathering.

Those black clouds gathered into a massive inverted mountain.

The top of the inverted mountain was facing Han Houzhi.

The leaden clouds rotated slightly, and the inverted mountain looked like a vortex surging.

Boom— Boom—

Strips of silver lightning, like dragons and snakes, coiled and wound on this black vortex inverted mountain, and very quickly turned purple.

Purple Divine Thunder.

Above the Nine Heavens, supreme majesty descended.

The majestic aura instantly covered the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and countless worlds.

"It's here..." Taizhen's eyes widened and she said: "Is this truly the power of a Sage?"

Gouchen shook his head: "This is the power of the Heavenly Dao!"

Boom—

The first wave of nine purple-red heavenly thunders suddenly descended from the sky and poured down onto Han Houzhi's head.

Han Houzhi was also a ruthless person; he didn't use any magic treasures and resisted it directly with his physical body.

Very quickly, the second wave of purple lightning gathered.

Boom—

The third wave!

The fourth wave!

The fifth wave!

From the sixth wave on, Han Houzhi had to borrow his own magic treasures to resist the heavenly tribulation.

Fortunately, he was well prepared.

Very quickly, the nine waves of nine thunders ended.

Above the Nine Heavens, golden light flickered, immortal music sang, and dragons and phoenixes soared.

Han Houzhi stood up from the void and looked eagerly at the top of his head.

Countless people's gazes also looked upward.

Gouchen said: "After the Nine Heavens Thunder Rites, there is the Sage Jin Guang!"

"Once the golden light falls, Hunyuan is established!"

But everyone waited for a full half-incense stick of time, and still did not see the holy light fall.

The discussions grew louder and louder.

Han Houzhi in the void was also somewhat panicked.

Taizhen asked Gouchen: "May I ask the Heaven Emperor, what does this mean?"

Gouchen smiled and said: "Hunyuan is all determined by Heaven; it is a fixed number!"

He didn't explain it too clearly either.

However, Han Houzhi in the void couldn't hold on anymore; he roared loudly: "Why? Why..."

"Heavenly Dao, why treat me thinly?"

"Why treat me thinly..."

At this moment, everyone realized that Han Houzhi had attracted the Nine Heavens Thunder Rites and succeeded in the tribulation, but the breakthrough had failed.

He didn't become Hunyuan.

"Impossible, right?" Someone said with a surprised face: "How could it fail?"

"Didn't the Sages calculate it? That the Heavenly Stop God Venerable would return today?"

"How could he still fail?"

"Isn't Han Houzhi the Heavenly Stop God Venerable?"

"After failing, is there still a chance to try again?"

"What exactly is going on with Han Houzhi?"

"Is he really the Heavenly Stop God Venerable?"

Everyone whispered, and the sound of discussion grew louder and louder.

In the distance, the Central Extreme Heaven Emperor's face was livid.

His gaze looked toward Gouchen, filled with inquiry.

Gouchen did not speak, nor did he pay any attention.

Just at this moment, in a certain direction of the distant void, a purple-gold lightning light suddenly flashed, illuminating a corner of the western void.

"This is..."

The Central Extreme Heaven Emperor was shocked and said: "Nine Heavens Thunder Rites?"

"Thunder Rites?"

"How could there be Thunder Rites?"

"Someone is becoming a Sage?"

Everyone present looked in shock at the purple-gold lightning light that flashed past.

Someone said: "That's the second bolt... look..."

That's right!

It was the second wave.

"Sigh..." The Central Extreme Heaven Emperor frowned: "Mistake... mistake... this Heavenly Stop God Venerable is simply not Han Houzhi!"

"Go... quickly follow me to take a look..."

The Central Extreme Heaven Emperor looked deeply at Han Houzhi, then opened the void and instantly went toward the west.

"Go..." Gouchen said: "Let's go too..."

"Go, go, go..."

"Everyone go over and take a look..."

Those present were either Hunyuan or Dao Origin; moving the void was not a big deal at all.

So after a few breaths, only Han Houzhi was left here.

Han Houzhi was full of unwillingness; he looked hatefully at the western void and said: "This seat wants to see... who is playing tricks on me..."

Boom—

He pushed aside the void and stepped into the west.

In a certain void in the west, far from the immortal domains.

Under the gathering of majestic leaden clouds, bolts of purple lightning light wound down.

Under the funnel-shaped inverted mountain, a monk wearing a red cassock was sitting cross-legged.

Beside the monk, there was originally only one person: Shang Xihong.

But now, the people here were gathering more and more.

"Damn it... actually snatching my opportunity!" The disheveled Han Houzhi waved his hand and took out a large golden bucket. He poured his magic power into it, and a golden light blasted toward Mingyue, who was sitting in the void.

However, ten thousand miles away from Mingyue, a golden barrier flashed out, blocking all of Han Houzhi's attacks.

A trace of coldness appeared in Shang Xihong's eyes.

She raised her hand, and Han Houzhi was blown away.

Boom—

Heaven and earth shook, and lightning roared.

Another wave of Thunder Rites fell down.

"What is going on?"

"Isn't this a disciple of the Buddha Gate?"

"Heavens... is the Buddha Gate about to become a Sage?"

"I know him; this is Bodhisattva Mingyue!"

"Amitabha..."

"Brother, what is going on?" Wen Buwan asked curiously: "Is that Uncle-Master Mingyue?"

He Tianzhi was also shocked beyond measure.

He Pingsheng said: "It should be said that Mingyue Buddha Venerable is the true Heavenly Stop God Venerable!"

"Hehehe..."

He Pingsheng suddenly thought of something and laughed loudly, saying: "Back then, the Demon Sage once told me that the Heavenly Stop God Venerable was romantic and handsome, unparalleled in the world!"

"At first I thought it was a joke, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

To talk about Han Houzhi, in He Pingsheng's eyes, he was absolutely mediocre.

But Mingyue... just from the perspective of looks, that absolutely couldn't be smeared.

He Tianzhi asked: "Father... why is this so?"

He Pingsheng said: "All things in heaven and earth are one Yin and one Yang!"

"The Heavenly Stop God Venerable must have understood this principle deeply, so when he reincarnated, he created a Han Houzhi!"

"Han Houzhi seems to have infinite glory and innate talent, but he is just a smoke screen!"

"With this smoke screen, the true Heavenly Stop God Venerable could grow up without any obstruction!"

Boom—

Just at this moment, the purple lightning flashed again, dyeing He Pingsheng's face purple.

The thunder was divided into nine bolts, which fell onto Mingyue's head.
