Chapter 395: I Enter Grain Avoidance Amidst Three Thousand Blooming Flowers
His origin power seed was now like primordial chaos, constantly shifting, with no definable shape.
Sometimes, it?manifested?mountains, lakes, and rivers, or birds, beasts, and fish. Other times, it formed moons, suns, stars and other totems.
Sometimes, it?transformed?into wind, lightning, earth, and flame…
Each such phenomenon lasted but an instant before reverting into primordial chaos.
And as the Sword of the Nine Hells repeatedly absorbed that pure, mysterious taboo energy, the origin power seed became increasingly solid and concentrated.
These strange and miraculous changes made even Su Yi gasp. He was inwardly beside himself with anticipation.
When his “Strongest Dao Seed” truly took shape, what would it look like?
Su Yi had long since begun pondering how he’d counter the tribulation he’d provoke when he stepped into the Grain Avoidance Realm.
After all, according to what he’d seen and heard in his past life, over the years, countless shocking geniuses had encountered this very tribulation, yet all of them, without exception, were incinerated in the process. The tribulation destroyed them, and with them, their Dao.
Not one had succeeded!
This left Su Yi with little choice but to take this tribulation seriously and make ample preparations.
He could never have anticipated that when this bizarre tribulation truly descended upon him, it would be this relaxing!
Relying purely on the power of the Sword of the Nine Hells, he effortlessly refined each and every beam of tribulation light!
Rumble!
The tribulation clouds filling the dome of heaven churned, dark and oppressive. Deep within the vortex, beams of tribulation light accumulated power.
The destructive aura of a tribulation filled heaven and earth, leaving those terrifying existences quaking in terror.
Soon, aside from the Starlight Vessel, all three retreated far away.
“This tribulation is far grander than the Spiritual Manifestation Tribulation I faced when entering the Spiritual Manifestation Realm,” said the woman on the shoulders of the great ape. She looked bewildered, and her heart shook. “It’s full of a strange, forbidden aura….”
Crack!
Suddenly, a beam of tribulation light as thick as a waterfall came crashing down to the world below, surging from the depths of the dark vortex of cloud.
That explosive, terrifying scene made even the four terrifying existences gasp. This was who-knows-how-many-times stronger than the beams that fell earlier!
Unbelievably, despite its power, when the tribulation light landed on Su Yi, it merely pushed him several dozen feet downward. He quickly stabilized himself.
As for that explosive, unrestrained beam of tribulation light? It was like a river flowing into the sea; every last drop poured into Su Yi and disappeared without a trace.
Everyone was dumbstruck.?Is he… Is he devouring the tribulation?
Hah!
Su Yi let out a long breath and looked up into the deep, layered vortex of clouds. It seemed he’d yet to get his fill.
The Sword of the Nine Hells rumbled as the origin power seed in his dantian underwent an unprecedented consolidation and metamorphosis.?He could sense that his cultivation, soul, body, essence, qi, and spirit had all undergone a miraculous cleansing and sublimation.
He felt as if he were floating, or as if he were on the verge of ascendance.
This was a true metamorphosis, an ultimate breakthrough he could never have achieved at the same realm in his past life!
Throughout the Wilds’ long history, not one person had ever taken this step.?Yet now, this nigh-impossible miracle was happening within him!
Boom!
The skies were dark, overcast, and oppressive. Deep within the tribulation clouds, the inscrutable light of the tribulation crisscrossed and condensed.
Finally, it formed a spear-like beam?and ruthlessly?stabbed.
It was like a spear of divine judgment descending from above. The limitless, terrifying aura of the tribulation swept in all directions. Heaven and earth wailed and shook.
The Starlight Vessel hadn’t moved in the slightest all this time, but now, it too moved further away. Daoist Star Girdle clearly sensed that he couldn’t block that calamitous aura.
“How terrifying!” Fire Demon Lihuo and the other old monsters visibly lost their composure, while the giant white ape let out a muffled grunt.
The woman on the ape’s shoulders couldn’t help but circulate her cultivation to help both herself and the ape counter the shock of the tribulation’s aura.
Hua Xinfeng, who’d hidden within the ruins of the Immortals’ Sword House, felt a stinging pain in her eyes. Everything went white, and she could no longer see anything at all.
Su Yi sensed the tribulation light spear’s aura. He couldn’t help but admit that at his current cultivation, without the Sword of the Nine Hells, he’d be in trouble even if he called upon every last trump card at his disposal. Even if he overcame the tribulation in the end, he’d be covered in gaping wounds, his vitality severely damaged. It would surely end in misery.
No wonder no one has ever survived this tribulation before. I’m afraid not even a Spirit Dao cultivator could have endured…?Su Yi sighed to himself.
A tribulation like this made him realize something: this wasn’t a trial set for ordinary cultivators.
Only those who attempted to condense the “strongest Dao Seed” would face this calamity.
This wasn’t a test.
It was a punishment!
It existed to obliterate the strongest Dao Seeds, a power not permitted to exist in this world!
As Su Yi pondered, the tribulation light spear was fast approaching.
This was an unquestionably terrifying attack, but under the suppression of the Sword of the Nine Hells, it too was devoured into nothingness, leaving Su Yi entirely unharmed.
It was at that moment that Su Yi clearly sensed the?origin power?seed in his dantian burst with incomparable radiance, like chaos at the beginning of the universe.
Boom!
Immediately afterward, his cultivation, physique, and soul each trembled, and his entire body burst with radiant light, like a miniature sun illuminating this entire overcast stretch of heaven and earth.
He wasn’t sure when, but the densely-layered dark tribulation clouds had already silently disappeared, and the world returned to its former tranquility.
The onlookers watched as Su Yi stood in the air, bathed in light, like a phoenix reborn in flame.
With him at their center, countless flowers of light formed and swayed in the skies. They were like the flowers of the Grand Dao, blanketing the world. It was indistinct, but a sound like the music of the heavens and the Grand Dao rang out. It seemed sacred and extraordinary; even heaven and earth were solemn.
This was obviously an incomparable phenomenon!
It was like the legendary “deluge of heavenly flowers, with golden lotuses blooming from the earth.”
As Su Yi stood upright in the sky, the flowers gave him an additional mysteriousness, as if he were a god or immortal.
Everyone watching this was stunned.
Who could possibly have missed that Su Yi had successfully overcome his tribulation and entered the Grain Avoidance Realm in a single bound?
Admittedly, this cultivation was beneath those four terrifying old monsters’ notice, but Su Yi was unquestionably a different story.
As a mere Xiantian Martial Ancestor, he’d provoked such a strange and inscrutable tribulation. This was unprecedented to begin with.
Now that he’d successfully overcome his tribulation and entered the Origin Dao, the foundations he established in the Grand Dao triggered this unparalleled phenomenon!
Even if they searched ancient records, scouring the entirety of written history, they feared they’d find no one else like him!
Is this guy really a celestial immortal? If not, why is it that he could trigger such an unprecedented disturbance merely by entering the Grain Avoidance Realm??Hua Xinfeng felt dazed, even dizzy.
The woman on the shoulders of the giant ape was shaken too, and she sank into a lengthy silence.?It’s unbelievable. It’s just too unbelievable. They say that as the Radiant Epoch draws near, all unusual occurrences are omens, but aren’t there a bit too many unusual occurrences surrounding this guy?
“Even in the world as it was thirty thousand years ago, which monstrous genius of the younger generation ever took this step?”
“Just who is this boy? Why are so many strange situations occurring around him?”
Fire Demon Lihuo, Old Yao Bone Eater, and Thunder Monarch Oblivion completely lost their cool. This scene startled and shook them to the core.
All of this was completely beyond their comprehension and imagination.
Before long, the flowers filling the sky dispersed.
Su Yi stood in the air, calm and composed, as if he’d been cleansed and returned to his natural state. His energy was as tranquil as still waters, and he had a transcendent charm.
An origin power seed hovered within his dantian, gradually circulating. It surged with overflowing and pure origin power, which flew through him like a rising tide, through his meridians and into his acupoints and organs. They formed a unique connection, and when the cycle reached its end, it began anew, continuing nonstop.
Cultivators condensed origin power seeds in the Grain Avoidance Realm. The best of these were known as Dao Seeds.
.
Only the truly exceptional could condense a Dao Seed.
Dao Seeds were further divided into levels, and each?cultivator’s was?unique. The strongest Dao Seeds could manifest in all manner of shapes: landscapes, celestial bodies, birds and beasts, or the elements, among others.
Each had its own miraculous qualities. Dao Seeds were like a late-awakened talent, and they gave their cultivators strength and foundations far beyond their peers.
Su Yi’s Strongest Dao Seed had a similarly extraordinary shape. Upon closer inspection, it resembled a miniature Sword of the Nine Hells!
However, before Su Yi could examine it further and discern its subtleties, someone bellowed—
“You’re only in the Grain Avoidance Realm, that’s all. Even if you were more heaven-defying than you already are, so what? If you don’t give up the treasure, you’ll die beyond a doubt!” said that soft, feminine voice on the Isle of No Return. Fire Demon Lihuo’s aura surged, ready to strike at a moment’s notice.
Heaven and earth trembled, and cold, imposing murderous intent permeated the entire area once more.
When they looked at him now, those terrifying beings’ gazes carried a new, indescribable flavor.
Like they’d discovered prey chock-full of secrets. They were curious, yes, but also murderous and greedy.
“I can give up on the treasure, so long as you leave that little fellow for me,” said Old Yao Bone Eater.
“Hah! You’re dreaming.” Thunder Monarch Oblivion laughed coldly. How could he fail to realize that Su Yi’s secrets were likely no less precious than the ruins’ good fortune?
Austere killing intent swept forth like waters at high tide. The situation was instantly tense and oppressive.
Su Yi stood in the air and stretched, then swept his gaze across the four terrifying existences. He laughed, “To tell the truth, if you weren’t imprisoned by the power of the Prohibition of Ancient Darkness, you might scare me a little. However, in your current state, you’re little more than fish on a chopping block. I can dispose of you as I see fit.”
As he spoke, Su Yi flicked the Abstruse God Sword. “Don’t waste any more words. If you’re not convinced, I’ll happily grant you death and release you from this world.”
The entire area fell silent, followed by a burst of raucous laughter.
There was no doubt about it; those four terrifying existences saw Su Yi’s declaration as nothing but a joke.
The woman on the shoulders of the white ape was dumbstruck too.?This kid only just broke though. He might have overcome that strange tribulation and provoked those unprecedented phenomena, but his cultivation is still only in the Grain Avoidance Realm. Isn’t his tone a bit too arrogant?
Hua Xinfeng didn’t laugh.
She knew that Su Yi would never joke about such a thing.
Boom!
Old Yao Bone Eater could no longer restrain himself. He was the first to take action.
