Chapter 357: Fellows
"Roar!"
Gu Chuan's body was unmatched, and he withstood the test of the Immortal King Tribulation. He already had a body of the Immortal King level. Next, it was the turn of his soul. He roared, and his soul emitted a brilliant light, illuminating the dim universe.
"Clatter!"
Crystal clear rule chains fell from the sky, falling from all directions, piercing Gu Chuan's soul like sharp spears. In just a moment, he was riddled with holes and was fixed there by these chains, unable to move.
What followed was endless lightning, which desperately struck Gu Chuan's soul, wanting to destroy it.
The people in the Cross Yin-Yang Forbidden Zone suddenly became nervous, because this was the most terrifying stage of the Immortal King Tribulation.
Ninety percent of the creatures fell at this step. Most of the people who survived the catastrophe could not bear the torture of heaven and earth. They turned to ashes and died in the catastrophe. A very small number of creatures survived by chance. Although their souls did not become immortal kings, they had experienced amazing tempering on the basis of their original foundation and were not much different from immortal kings.
Many creatures among the ten evils were at this level, with immortal king bodies and souls close to immortal kings. Now, Gu Chuan has also reached this step.
"The next step is the most terrifying immortal king nine-fold tribulation. If he can survive, Gu Chuan will be an immortal king. If he can't survive, his life and death is unpredictable." The Lord of the Forbidden Zone said in white clothes.
Gu Wudi nodded. The immortal king nine-fold tribulation refers to the nine-fold tribulation for the soul. One tribulation is a heaven. One step is a heaven. After nine unimaginable tests, it can be sublimated and transformed into the supreme immortal king soul, and initially possess the immortal characteristics.
It is not so easy to be high above and look down on the world, otherwise, the number of Immortal Kings would not be so rare.
As time went by, Gu Chuan relied on his own powerful accumulation to force his way through the eight calamities. When there was only one calamity left, he was already dying and his source was almost exhausted.
At this time, if he chose to save his life and stopped attacking, it would not be difficult to survive. The baptism of the eight calamities made his soul strong enough to become a creature like the Ten Evils.
However, Gu Chuan did not do so. He was very determined to use his last source of power to fight. If he succeeded, he would break out of the cocoon and become a fairy king. If he failed, he would die and everything would be silent.
The people in the Cross Yin and Yang Forbidden Zone looked solemnly at the universe ahead. No one spoke to disturb him. Gu Chuan should decide how to go.
"Boom!"
The ninth level of the Yuanshen Tribulation came, which was more violent than any of the previous eight levels. Gu Chuan's Yuanshen dimmed in an instant, and the light was extinguished. He was heading for death. Gu Chuan sighed slightly, lamenting the horror of the Immortal King Tribulation. He was so well prepared, but he still failed.
If you have not really experienced this kind of disaster, you will never understand how difficult it is to prove the Tao of the Immortal King.
Just when Gu Chuan was about to give up and was about to be swallowed by the heavenly punishment, a great voice appeared in his ears.
At this moment, Gu Chuan opened his eyes wide and showed an incredible look. Then, his Yuanshen figurine was like a last ray of light, chanting a passage of ancient scriptures. The Yuanshen figurine, which was originally sluggish and about to be swallowed, suddenly surged with a huge force in its body.
"Boom!"
The Yuanshen figurine stood upright, shining brightly, as if it was about to turn into a long sword and break through the sky.
"This is..."
The Lord of the Forbidden Zone was shocked and couldn't help looking at the disciple next to him.
Others were confused, they only knew that Gu Chuan had come back to life, his spirit was strong in desperate situation, and he had unleashed unparalleled potential at the moment of death.
"Puff!"
The ultimate blow of the ninth level of Yuan Shen Jie fell, destroying the heaven and earth, annihilating everything, all the creatures below the Immortal King were trembling, their souls were horrified, and they were frightened by this magnificent power.
As strong as Qingyue, Biyu, and Dugu Che, their Yuan Shen trembled, and they were in the situation, as if they were going to fall in the next moment.
"How is Fellow Daoist Gu Chuan? Did he succeed?" Dugu Che muttered to himself, scanning the cracked universe, looking for Gu Chuan's figure.
"Why is there no celestial phenomenon of becoming a king? Could it be that Fellow Daoist Gu Chuan..."
Only the Lord of the Forbidden Zone and Gu Wudi had a calm expression, and even a hint of smile appeared at the corners of their mouths.
"Buzz!"
In the depths of the dark and cracked universe, a body of an Immortal King lay on its back in the void space, with a charred black area between its eyebrows and a thumb-sized blood hole leading directly to the place where the Yuan Shen of the Immortal King body rested.
It can be seen that the inside was a bloody mess, destroyed beyond recognition by the heavenly tribulation. Normally, it is difficult for a living being to withstand the ultimate blow of the ninth level of tribulation, but Gu Chuan, who used the secret of the pacification decision, survived. In the ruins, a little man of the Yuanshen gradually recovered from illusion to solidity.
"Boom..."
Under the sky, the vision of the Immortal King's enlightenment came, and the fairy light fell from the sky, like a waterfall, washing Gu Chuan's body and Yuanshen. He was reborn, all the scars dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the lost source was quickly filled. The whole person's aura quickly became strong, and the power of the Immortal King spread, sweeping across the sky and the earth, and the six directions and eight wastelands.
A Immortal King was born just like this. Not only did the heaven and earth give blessings, but the World Tree also extended a branch, dropping the vast laws of the Great Dao, helping Gu Chuan reshape the Immortal King's body and the Immortal King's Yuanshen.
When everything was over, the newly promoted Immortal King Gu Chuan walked over to the Lord of the Forbidden Zone and Gu Wudi, and knelt down on the ground.
"Gu Chuan greets the Master and the Ancestor."
Even though Gu Chuan was already an Immortal King, he still knew clearly that he was a general under Gu Wudi.
"He is already an Immortal King, and we are of the same path. There is no need to be like this." Gu Wudi chuckled and said.
Gu Chuan lowered his head when he heard this, and even said that he dared not to speak out to express his loyalty.
This is not a lie, but a sincere one.
Gu Chuan was trapped in the bone ship and imprisoned in it. If Gu Wudi had not rescued him, his fate would be known without guessing. Later, Gu Wudi helped him recover his origin and went to a higher level. He took him away from the right and wrong land of the boundary sea and came to the complete world of the original ancient world. He also taught him the pacification technique, one of the three supreme sword techniques, at the most critical moment of proving the Immortal King. Without the supreme mystery of the pacification technique, his soul could not survive the last level.
Although he was puzzled as to why his master knew the pacification technique, which was the secret of the Wang Heng family, a giant in the fairyland, Gu Chuan did not ask.
No matter how Gu Wudi got it, it was a secret. As a general under Gu Wudi, he should keep the secret for his master.
Gu Wudi was very satisfied with Gu Chuan's actions. Originally, he would not pass on this supreme sword art, which would expose some of his secrets. However, he could not watch Gu Chuan die. After all, this creature was absolutely loyal to him, and Gu Wudi should lend him a helping hand.
Now, Gu Chuan was very sensible and did not mention a word about the secret of the pacification art. Even if the master of the restricted area had doubts, he did not know what was going on.
It was not that Gu Wudi intended to conceal these things, but he and his father had agreed that before the three bodies merged into one, even the closest people could not be told.
Saving Gu Chuan was a last resort, and it was just a pacification art. With Gu Chuan's little head, it was impossible for him to think of such an outrageous method of dividing one body into three.
After Gu Chuan was helped up, everyone in the cross Yin-Yang restricted area surrounded him and congratulated him.
A new Immortal King appeared in the forbidden area, and his strength was greatly enhanced. This was undoubtedly a great joy, and everyone was very happy.
Everyone returned to the forbidden area, and soon the messengers of the ancient Taoist sects came with gifts.
At the same time, in the Thirty-three Heavens, the news of Guchuan's becoming a king spread, and people only then knew that the creature who had achieved the Dao of the Immortal King was a creature in the Cross Yin-Yang Forbidden Area.
For this life forbidden area, the ancient world cultivators were not unfamiliar. The invincible giant whose reputation resounded throughout the Thirty-three Heavens came from this forbidden area. It has long become a synonym for mystery and power. Now, this forbidden area has another Immortal King, which makes all living beings more awed by the Cross Yin-Yang Forbidden Area, and at the same time, there is a yearning.
Everyone sat down in front of a tea table deep in the Cross Yin-Yang Forbidden Area. The two True Immortal Dao children had already filled the immortal wine and made a table of delicacies, just to celebrate Guchuan's becoming a king. Several people toasted and clinked glasses from time to time, listening to Guchuan's experience of becoming a king.
He was filled with emotion. It was as difficult as ascending to heaven to achieve enlightenment and become a king. No wonder 99% of the creatures died at this stage. He was so well prepared, but he almost fell at the last step. Thinking about it now, it was really scary.
No wonder some of the ten evils had never made it through. It was not because they were not strong enough, but because the nine-fold calamity of the soul was too difficult. Those who did not accumulate enough would be seeking death if they attacked this stage.
"Junior sister Qingyue will be there soon, right? With your qualifications, it should not be a problem to achieve enlightenment and become a king." Dugu Che asked.
Qingyue shook her head.
"Brother Dugu, you are too serious. Only one or two creatures can succeed in achieving enlightenment and becoming an immortal king in an era. Qingyue is still far away." She sighed.
Although she wanted to become an immortal king immediately, participate in the most top-notch battlefield, and fight side by side with her Taoist partner, but at present, she still had a very long distance to attack the immortal king. Not everyone was Gu Wudi or Lei Di.
Qingyue was amazing enough. She traveled through the ancient world and became close friends with the two giants. However, it was not easy to become a fairy king.
"Don't be discouraged. Your way will eventually succeed." The Lord of the Forbidden Zone said.
Back then, he passed on the Rebirth Sutra to Qingyue. This is a strange method that can communicate with the previous life and borrow the fruit of the Tao. Some people achieved nothing after practicing, while others soared into the sky and rose rapidly. Qingyue belongs to the latter.
When Qingyue really understood this profound scripture and surpassed her master, she would have the qualifications to become a king. It is too early now.
Then, the Lord of the Forbidden Zone asked Gu Wudi about his future plans.
Today's Gu Wudi is so deep that even he, the former giant, can't see through him. According to Gu Wudi's description, his Tao is not far from the peak of the fairy king. It won't take too long for him to reach this supreme realm.
The so-called Immortal King Absolute Peak is the true pinnacle of the Immortal King Realm, the highest peak among the giants. If those who stand at the Immortal King Absolute Peak want to move forward, they can only choose to break the king and become the emperor.
Historically, there are only a handful of creatures of this level. The few emperors who created the Immortal Realm Law in the past were in this realm, so powerful that they are immeasurable.
In the eyes of the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, butchers born in the Immortal Realm, those who sell fake medicine, and those who raise chickens should also be in this realm. After all, they roam the sea of boundaries and attack giants, which makes the Immortal Kings look pale.
Gu Wudi is about to reach this realm, and he is not far from being a real invincible giant. The Lord of the Forbidden Zone wants to know what Gu Wudi will do in the face of the current situation in the heavens.
"To be honest with Master, I plan to continue practicing until I reach the peak of the Immortal King Realm.
It has only been 150,000 years since the war, and many Taoist friends in the ancient world have not recovered from their injuries. At this time, it is not appropriate to start a war. For the safety of all Taoist friends, the disciple must stay in the primitive ancient world to prevent accidents. "Gu Wudi replied.
The Lord of the Forbidden Zone heard this and sighed lightly: "That's right, the primitive ancient world needs you as a stabilizing force.
If you rashly support the fairyland and attack the creatures of the dark camp, you may be taken advantage of by the enemy and cause irreparable losses to the primitive ancient world. "
"Master, are you talking about the fairyland?" Gu Wudi smiled slightly.
"Well, 150,000 years ago, the fairyland supported our world and helped us repel the foreign land. As the leader of the primitive ancient world, you should also show your appreciation.
However, what you said just now is right. The ancient world cannot do without you. Fortunately, there is that fellow Taoist Wang Gen fighting in the fairyland, which represents our primitive ancient world to support the fairyland. "The Lord of the Forbidden Zone nodded.
After Gu Wudi heard what his master said, his smile became even stronger, and he said something that surprised the Lord of the Forbidden Zone.
"Master, don't worry about the Immortal Realm. It won't be long before the dark camp will be defeated."
"Are you sure? As far as I know, there are quite a few dark fairy kings rooted in the uninhabited area of the Immortal Realm, and there are even top giants like the Nine-headed Monster as their leaders.
Their strength is only one aspect. The most frightening thing is that they carry amazing dark matter. If anyone fights with them and fights for life and death, it is very likely to fall into darkness. If not, the kings of the Immortal Realm would have taken action long ago.
Are you sure that the Immortal Realm will win a great victory in the near future and defeat the dark creatures? "The Lord of the Forbidden Zone was a little unbelievable.
However, the one who said this was his disciple, an invincible giant who was about to reach the top. Even if this judgment seemed a little unrealistic, it was enough to make him frown and think deeply.
"Well, the disciple is sure, Master, just wait for good news from there, maybe a thousand years, or maybe ten thousand years, anyway, it won't take too long. "Gu Wudi nodded and replied.
"Is it really so?" The Lord of the Forbidden Zone said to himself doubtfully.
...
Two thousand years later, in Hengwang City, in the deepest part of Hengwang Palace, a figure sat cross-legged quietly, maintaining the same posture, and had not moved for more than 100,000 years.
