The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

Chu Xiu had already passed the Heavenly Dao's test of conscience, and his mental state, comprehension, and True Immortal spiritual power were now overflowing.

Breaking through to the Xuanxian realm will be a natural outcome.

Chu Xiu, who was sitting on the ground in the black desert, suddenly stood up, and his aura suddenly surged, reaching an unprecedented peak at this moment!

A breakthrough in cultivation!

He has reached the first level of the Profound Immortal Realm!

Chu Xiu opened his eyes and looked up at the sky.

Having successfully broken through, what follows is the price and test of defying the fate of a mortal to become an immortal—the Heavenly Tribulation of the Mysterious Immortal!

At this moment, a giant hand formed from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth suddenly appeared out of thin air in the sky and slammed down directly towards Chu Xiu's location.

A golden light flashed in Chu Xiu's eyes. He used his Qi Observation Technique to see that the palm was formed from the power of heaven and earth.

The moment Chu Xiu used his Qi Observation Technique, the giant palm locked onto Chu Xiu's aura, making it impossible for him to dodge, and struck him squarely on the head!

Despite being struck by the palm of heaven and earth, Chu Xiu's figure remained completely unshaken.

He frowned and immediately used his spiritual power to examine himself.

This palm strike, though seemingly weak and powerless, channeled a calamity-inducing force from the Heavenly Dao into Chu Xiu's body from the top of his head. It transformed into a wind blade that ravaged Chu Xiu's internal organs, lower dantian, and nine orifices, attempting to destroy his martial arts golden core and cultivation foundation, and fundamentally resolve his heaven-defying act of defying the mortal to become an immortal!

Even his primordial spirit was injured by it!

"This is... the Calamity of the Crow Wind, one of the Three Calamities!"

It seems that the power of this heavenly tribulation knows that the other two of the three calamities—the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation and the Yin Fire Tribulation—have no effect on Chu Xiu, whose body has been tempered by heavenly thunder and who possesses the true meaning of the Five Elements Fire.

Therefore, directly using this third calamity, the Crow Wind Calamity, which directly affects the cultivator's foundation and primordial spirit, is far more powerful and effective than the first two calamities!

"Chase!"

Chu Xiu circulated his true energy throughout his body, barely managing to expel the power of the yin wind from his six internal organs, nine orifices, and lower dantian.

The yin wind that had been raging in the lower dantian had already cut cracks into the martial arts golden core!

"This power of the Yin wind can actually damage a Golden Core cultivator to this extent!"

Chu Xiu was furious, and his Xuanxian aura surged as he looked up at the sky.

Above the sky, the wind howled like a knife, sweeping up the dark clouds.

Above the heavy black clouds, several enormous figures could be clearly seen standing in mid-air, coldly looking down at Chu Xiu.

"Chu Xiu, a mortal from the lower realm, presumptuously attempts to ascend to the Heavenly Dao with the body of an ant; his crime is unforgivable!"

"We, the immortals and gods, in the name of those who uphold the Dao in the lower realms, act on behalf of Heaven, unleash the calamity of the crow wind, and slay you here!"

The giant's roar was like thunder, and his voice was as cold as a sword. When it reached Chu Xiu's ears, it even caused blood to flow from his ear canals!

"The One Who Upholds the Dao? Is he the one who executes the Heavenly Dao and controls those cultivators in this world who break through to the Profound Immortal Realm?"

"Are these the so-called immortals and gods above the nine heavens?"

Chu Xiu's eyes flashed with coldness.

These Daoists are full of slang for mortals and ants, regarding the common people of this world as worthless weeds, no different from the nobles they have suppressed and killed!

"Deserves to be killed!"

The enforcers of the Way are unaware that the ants in their eyes have already regarded them as creatures to be killed!

Seeing that Chu Xiu had no reaction, the three Dao Bearers stopped talking and suddenly took a step forward.

The dark clouds beneath him, which blotted out the sky, immediately descended rapidly, stirring up gusts of cold wind and creating thousands of giant sandstorm tornadoes that attacked Chu Xiu from all directions!

Chu Xiu, however, showed no fear upon seeing this.

If this yin wind tornado were to sweep through his body, he would be helpless.

But what if it were outside the world...?

What we call wind is simply the phenomenon of air movement!

Even the eerie winds caused by immortals and gods are like this!

With his own talent and the help of the system, Chu Xiu's comprehension of martial arts is absolutely the best in this world!

The study and development of the innate breath-concealing technique, which I studied long ago, has undergone a qualitative change!

"Concealing one's breath" can refer to more than just hiding one's own aura.

It can also gather the energy of the surrounding world to create a vacuum!

Without air, there can be no hurricanes!

Chu Xiu simply reached out, twisted his hand into a fist, and struck the area around his body.

He used his breath-concealing technique to forcefully gather the air within a radius of several miles into his palm, creating a vacuum.

No matter how rampant the sandstorms and tornadoes outside the vacuum are, they will rapidly diminish and shrink until they disappear completely once they enter this realm!

So-called yin winds are nothing to fear if they do not enter the body.

Next, Chu Xiu will only need to deal with the three so-called immortals and gods in the heavens!

"This person can actually defuse a heavenly tribulation with the power of a mortal?"

"Very well, let the three of us strike directly and kill this fiend!"

The three giant figures rapidly shrank, coalescing into their true forms, indistinguishable from normal people.

The three of them took a step forward in unison, heading straight for Chu Xiu, and unleashed a punch from high above!

"It seems that these so-called immortals and gods are nothing more than human beings."

"Just because you have some strength, you think you're superior to others?"

"Let me, as a mortal, slaughter you all here! Let me shatter the arrogance of you damned gods and immortals!"

Chu Xiu's eyes were filled with intense fighting spirit.

Using the Qi Observation Technique, these three individuals were only around the sixth level of the Profound Immortal Realm, yet they dared to call themselves immortals and gods.

With his current cultivation level at the same Xuanxian realm, he might not be invincible if he unleashed his full power!

Chu Xiu stepped into the void and unleashed the condensed and compressed energy of heaven and earth in his hand at the location of the three people.

"Try my air cannon!"

With the extremely compressed energy of heaven and earth combined with Chu Xiu's own Xuanxian power, this attack was comparable to a full-force attack from a sixth-level Xuanxian!

The air cannon fired, shattering the void wherever it passed!

One of the three sixth-level Xuanxian Immortals was struck by this invisible and intangible attack, which blasted a huge blood hole in his chest!

"Such a weak body! Do you only cultivate internal energy and not your physical body?!"

Upon seeing this, Chu Xiu laughed loudly without any mercy.

So-called immortals and gods are actually this fragile!

"You three, leave your corpses in what you call the 'lower realm'!"

Chu Xiu unleashed the Void Soaring Step, his feet treading the void, his fighting spirit soaring to the heavens!

With a single step, he transformed into a streak of lightning, wielding his knife towards the other two.

"Heaven and Earth Suppress the Heavens, Avici Hell!"

With a single slash, countless crimson sword energies transformed into blood dragons, roaring as they charged towards the fist strikes unleashed by the two immortals.

The two fist beams, one of ice and one of fire, seemed to contain powerful forces of the five elements.

Those who led the blood dragon were either shattered by the fist's energy, either freezing into ice and falling to the ground, or being evaporated by the flames and vanished completely.

Seeing this, Chu Xiu reached out and clenched his fist, and countless blood dragons were detonated before they even made contact with the fist's energy!

Under the bombardment of countless blood dragons, the two fist beams were completely shattered!

The remaining blood dragons pressed their advantage, charging straight at the two immortals.

The immortal god who unleashed the blazing fist's aura had a solemn expression. He hadn't expected that this ant, who had just broken through to the Profound Immortal Realm, would actually gain the upper hand in the previous clash with the power of the first level of the Profound Immortal Realm.

He even pierced a person's chest cavity with a single, invisible strike, severely injuring him!

"Just what level of strength has this person truly reached?"

"Attack him with immortal techniques or supernatural powers! The skills learned by such a lowly ant are certainly inferior and not worth fearing!"

The immortal who unleashed the Frost Fist spoke, simultaneously casting a spell with another person.

Instantly, the powerful fluctuations of spiritual energy caused the world to change color.

One person used magic to summon more than a dozen blazing dragons, all of which crashed towards Chu Xiu.

The other person's magic caused countless mountains to appear in the sky and crash down towards the direction from which Chu Xiu was rushing towards!

Chu Xiu stopped and sheathed his sword, his eyes showing a solemn expression.

Having exerted his full strength, he had already seen the gap between himself and these two immortals.

If it were a physical fight, I could absolutely win.

However, if it comes to comparing martial arts techniques, the seventh move of the Qiankun Zhentian Blade Technique that he used earlier was the strongest strike of the blade technique he could unleash, and it only managed to shatter the fist energy that the two of them casually threw!

These differences are clearly visible!

The fact that he was able to strike first and seriously injure one of the three was merely a clever trick.

Now, facing the blazing dragon and the crashing mountains, under the bombardment of such heavenly arts, only the Formless Sword Scripture, which embodies the ultimate humanity, should be able to rival it!

Chu Xiu sheathed his sword and stood in mid-air.

After closing his eyes and concentrating for two breaths, Chu Xiu's aura surged, and the wildly dancing energy around him was enough to tear apart the surrounding void!

Chu Xiu bent his legs and transformed into a golden sword rainbow, rushing straight towards the two immortals.

Its speed was so great that even the two immortals who had used their magic first could not react in time. The sword light that Chu Xiu's body had transformed into appeared behind the two of them!

"Transform your body into a sword; wherever your heart leads, your sword will follow!"

This is the second level of the Formless Sword Scripture, the so-called Formless Form!

Chu Xiu ignored the spells cast by the two and let them bombard the black desert.

He transformed himself into a sword, arriving behind the two at incredible speed. He raised his fingers to form a sword, and without any sword techniques, simply swung it horizontally!

This sword strike, as dazzling as the golden sun, shattered the void behind the two and sliced ​​across their necks!

These two so-called immortals and gods didn't even have time to change their expressions before their heads were separated from their bodies!

"This is the sword of humanity, dedicated to slaying those who falsely claim to uphold the Way of Heaven!"

Chu Xiu coldly watched as the corpses of the two immortals fell to the ground.

Then his figure transformed into a sword light, arriving in front of the first seriously injured person, killing him with a single sword strike, and then reaching out to grab his primordial spirit, which was then held in his palm.

"If you dare to kill the three of us, the Upper Realm will absolutely not let this go!"

Even after his primordial spirit was captured, this person still dared to threaten Chu Xiu.

Chu Xiu was too lazy to waste words and directly used the Soul Searching Technique, which caused the man's primordial spirit to explode and dissipate.

The same thing happened when the souls of the other two were searched!

"A spell targeting soul searching..."

Chu Xiu waved his sleeve and gave up; for him, worldly affairs were now the most important thing.

The so-called upper realm is not something to be rushed; he will one day go there in person and, with his own sword and blade, ask the immortals and gods there a question—

"Are immortals and gods born with a special destiny?!"
