Eternal Tale

Unstoppable!

Tai Yu felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy, his muscles involuntarily twitching all over his body, like the lingering tremors after a fierce battle.

His jaw slightly tilted back, his mouth twitching into an awkward arc, as if trying to suppress some intense emotion.

Why would a Tribulation Crossing Venerable appear at this mine!

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced in all directions. The vast thunder raged, and there was even a grand formation enveloping it, silently pulling them into another realm, with even the Xuanji Sacred Land’s mine no longer visible.

”A Venerable from Xuanji Sacred Land...”

Tai Yu let out a low, cold laugh, a hint of barely noticeable madness in his eyes. ”As expected of a sacred land, you actually guessed my true purpose. Even the actions of the ancient beasts couldn’t escape your notice.”

Before he finished speaking, Tai Yu’s eyes suddenly turned cold and stern, his bones emitting a cracking sound, as if something was about to break free.

He spread his arms, demonic patterns erupting all over his body, his ten fingers curling like steel pincers.

The airflow between heaven and earth solidified, and the immense power of the rules gathered around him, stirring the winds and clouds.”Buzz—” A massive Dharma Aspect appeared behind Tai Yu, entirely pitch-black, with blood-red eyes and towering horns, exuding a chilling murderous aura.

Tai Yu suddenly punched out, and with a thunderous roar, the Dharma Aspect transformed into a lifelike ancient demon, its feet leaving the ground as it charged violently towards the sealed thunder pillar.

With this punch, the mountains and rivers trembled, and the overwhelming murderous force swept across the land!

Tai Yu had actually cultivated the rudiments of the power of strength during the Great Ascension stage, and the killing intent emanating from him had reached a level capable of destroying the heavens and the earth!

Roar! Roar!

Just as Tai Yu’s battle intent erupted, two earth-shattering beast roars came from the sky, revealing two ancient giants, each towering ten thousand feet high.

They exuded an overwhelming aura, their eyes shooting terrifying blood light, fearlessly striking at the vast heavenly tribulation.

Today’s events could not end peacefully; only a fight to the death offered Tai Yu a sliver of hope!

The silver-haired man in the sky exerted such a powerful pressure, the strongest they had ever encountered in the Wild Heaven Region, far beyond their knowledge and comprehension.

The power of the heavenly tribulation could actually be controlled by a cultivator, something far beyond the lightning rules of a Tribulation Crossing Venerable.

It seemed more like a sublimation of rules, and they could only instinctively feel it was a higher existence.

The two ancient beasts spewed flames from their mouths, their limbs overturning mountains, their scales shining with dazzling golden light, transforming into two moving golden mountains, charging towards the sky.

They wanted to use the power of strength to shatter this inexplicable heavenly tribulation!

The tribulation constantly shook their bodies and rule power, an oppressive force from their souls pressing down on them. If they didn’t destroy this tribulation, they wouldn’t even have the chance to escape.

Three vast rule powers converged, tearing a massive hole in the tribulation clouds, but soon, more tumultuous dark clouds gathered from all directions, filling the gap.

”Boom!” Dozens of thunder pillars erupted from the churning sea of clouds, each as thick as a mountain, crashing down on the three of them.

”Block first!”

Tai Yu’s ancient demon rule Dharma Aspect let out an earth-shattering roar, causing the thunder pillars to tremble.

His eyes were bloodshot, never feeling so powerless, unable even to approach the silver-haired man!

The sudden arrival of this vast heavenly tribulation had already left them in a sorry state, exhausting all their means.

One ancient beast nodded, its eyes shooting blood light, lifting an entire mountain peak to smash into the boundless tribulation clouds, forcibly dispersing two thunder pillars!

Another beast spat flames, burning a massive hole in one of the thunder pillars.

Tai Yu’s face was fierce, a purple light soaring from his body, unleashing the Daoist spell he had cultivated for years!

The ancient demon Dharma Aspect followed closely, its palms swinging fiercely, two streams of demonic energy transforming into blades, slicing through several thunder pillars!

”Sizzle” The thunder and fire scattered, but it didn’t faze him at all. Tai Yu felt no relief, his spine chilling, realizing that his methods were completely ineffective!

”A Da, A Er, break the tribulation! Escape!!” Tai Yu roared, his eyes filled with intense unwillingness and fear, his life-saving trump card yet to be used, enough to escape from the hands of a Tribulation Crossing Venerable!

Roar!! Roar!!

The two ancient beasts roared to the sky, seemingly responding to Tai Yu, their life marks incredibly powerful. As long as Tai Yu could escape, they had a chance of resurrection!

The three Great Ascension Venerables joined forces, yet they were still locked in a stalemate with this sudden heavenly tribulation.

The space around them had been distorted by the massive impact, but more thunder pillars continued to rain down, twisting and deforming their bodies.

The surrounding mountains and rivers were overturned, trembling, lava spewing, thick smoke billowing, and the spirit beasts had long fled, not daring to look up at this terrifying scene of heaven and earth collapsing.

Meanwhile, in the Xuanji Sacred Land’s mine, seemingly shrouded by an endless grand formation, the cultivators there had all fainted, collapsing everywhere, unaware of what was happening.

Under the heavenly tribulation.

This grand duel had lasted for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, yet it seemed unresolved. Tai Yu and the others were barely holding on, having already exhausted a large amount of mana and rule power.

The silver-haired man stood with his hands behind his back in the tribulation clouds, his face gradually revealed from the lightning, none other than Chen Xun!

His gaze fell on the domineering ancient demon Dharma Aspect, a hint of amusement in his eyes. ”It seems this person has cultivated some remarkable spell, able to cultivate the rule Dharma Aspect to such an extent.”

Chen Xun sighed slightly, thinking back to when he refined the rule power, feeling it was enough. He didn’t have the same conditions as others to cultivate and enhance the rule power with Dharma Aspect spells and such.

But it wasn’t necessary; crushing them was enough. After cultivating immortality for so many years, wasn’t it all for today?!

Looking down on the geniuses of the grand world, this Dao Ancestor is not in the same realm as you; I’m a realm above your ancestors, and when they see me, they have to respectfully call me senior!

Chen Xun suddenly smiled slightly, a bolt of lightning bursting from his body, merging into the tribulation clouds, the system-enhanced rule power merging within, a 540-fold boost, beyond what a cultivator could imagine.

Boom—

At that moment, the tribulation clouds above Tai Yu and the others suddenly parted like a curtain, revealing a massive hole, and a thunder pillar thousands of miles in diameter descended from the sky!

This strike was terrifying beyond measure, and Tai Yu and the two beasts knew it was bad. But just as they struggled to resist, a figure appeared silently behind them, as if emerging from the heavens and earth.

This figure had deep, indifferent eyes, a face filled with endless calm and peace, exuding authority without anger. He was the silver-haired man!

The atmosphere fell silent, the vast heavenly tribulation fell silent, even the surrounding world fell silent.

Tai Yu and the two beasts’ bodies tensed, their pupils trembling violently... He... was here!!

Chen Xun’s lips curled into a slight arc, his wrist flicking lightly.

This seemingly casual flick stirred up massive waves in the heavens and earth, the terrifying thunderous roar shaking the sky, causing the area for tens of thousands of miles to tremble.

With a thunderous ”boom,” the descending thunder pillar was forcibly deflected, merely grazing over Tai Yu and the others’ heads, kicking up a thousand-foot cloud of dust as it retreated.

Tai Yu’s eyes widened, unable to react before feeling an immense, invisible force enveloping him, leaving him unable to struggle.

His soul, his physical strength, his Great Ascension rule power, were all rapidly stripped away in that instant. Tai Yu opened his mouth to speak, but only a mist of blood sprayed out.

Without even looking, Chen Xun pointed lightly at Tai Yu’s chest, and a golden lightning bolt descended from the sky, pinning Tai Yu to the ground, unable to move.

Moo~~~

Suddenly, a deep, ancient bellow of a bull echoed from the tribulation clouds, and two enormous black hooves stepped out of the vast tribulation clouds, with a pair of deep eyes faintly visible above them.

”Boom!” The hooves stomped fiercely in the clouds, stirring up a storm of tribulation clouds, creating two massive rifts that pierced through the heavens and earth!

Its speed was breathtakingly fast, and all anyone heard were two thunderous ”booms,” without even catching a glimpse of Black Bull’s shadow.

The two massive ancient beasts’ bodies shook violently, looking down in disbelief at their chests.

Each of their chests now had a bottomless pit!

The power of Black Bull’s front hooves had pierced through the heavens and earth, directly blasting a hole through the chest bones of the two ancient beasts, blood gushing from their bodies!

Roar... Roar...

Their eyes trembled with fear, letting out heart-wrenching howls in an instant, their colossal bodies retreating, the surrounding mountains long since flattened by their bodies.

Their internal power was being suppressed by the vast rule power of the heavens and earth, draining at an alarming rate!

They looked up in terror, no longer willing to fight. What ancient spirit beast was this in the Wild Heaven Region?!

”Who... are you...”

Tai Yu spread his four palms, looking at his two ancient beasts, letting out a roar of impotent rage, ”When did Xuanji Sacred Land have such a powerful Venerable!!”

His eyes were bloodshot, his anger reaching its peak. He knew the strength of Xuanji Sacred Land well, and today’s events couldn’t have been known in advance. How could a mere mine warrant the intervention of a Venerable?!

”Heh.” Chen Xun chuckled softly in the tribulation clouds, as layers of Five Elements light screens descended, and Black Bull also struck at that moment, the world instantly blurring, becoming chaotic and unclear...

Tai Yu gritted his teeth, gradually sinking into endless oblivion with the two ancient beasts.

Chen Xun narrowed his eyes slightly; this person had great use. In the mid-Great Ascension stage, bearing five thousand rule powers, and even able to connect with ancient beasts.

From the rule Dharma Aspect, it seemed this person might have some ties to the ancient demons, an unexpected delight.

The demon race of the Three Thousand Great Worlds ranked fourth on the Chaos Immortal Spirit List of the strongest myriad clans.

However, they weren’t active in the Great World of Taiyi, and had never been seen before. The ancient demon lineage was considered the ancestors of the demon race.

Similar to the ancient immortal clan, they were among the first ancient beings born with the world, their legacies never extinguished or broken.

From the vast immortal history, many great clans had perished over time, with the Flaming Red Ancient Lion being one of them, only to be lamented and discussed by later generations.

Boom—

At this moment, the vast tribulation clouds slowly dispersed, the world clear, the sky bright.

Chen Xun and Black Bull exchanged a glance, turning and disappearing from the scene, leaving only the terrifying destruction marks in all directions to remind one of what had transpired here.

But as they left, a Five Elements grand formation rose from the ground, the mountains and rivers slowly recovering, peaks standing tall, with no trace of the devastation remaining, only a change in appearance.
