I have changed my destiny and become an unparalleled immortal.

"Lightning...lightning tribulation? What kind of lightning tribulation is this?"

"He's just forming his Dao foundation! How could a Foundation Establishment cultivator attract such a terrifying Nine Heavens Purple Lightning Tribulation? This power... even a Nascent Soul ancestor never experienced such a tribulation!"

The five Golden Core cultivators were so frightened that their livers and gallbladders trembled violently.

Heaven will not tolerate this.

Gu Yun defied fate with his mortal body, and condensing thirteen Dao foundations in his Purple Mansion was already an act against the heavens. Now he actually wants to condense another one in his Dantian!

The gathering of the fourteen Dao foundations completely angered the laws of Heaven, unleashing a world-destroying lightning tribulation that was destined to kill.

What's even more deadly is that these five Golden Core cultivators are right within the range of the tribulation lightning!

The mechanism of the Heavenly Tribulation is that its power will automatically increase based on the person with the highest cultivation level within the range!

"Run! We'll be struck down by the heavenly tribulation!"

The five old monsters had no time to worry about killing Gu Yun and seizing the treasure. They were so scared that they turned around and tried to crush the escape talisman to flee for their lives.

"Trying to run now? Too late."

In the deep pit, Gu Yun, who had been kneeling on one knee, suddenly raised his head. In his scarlet eyes, there was no fear of the heavenly tribulation.

Instead, he burst into an almost maniacal laugh!

"Damn you, God, this lightning strike came at just the right time."

boom!

The first bolt of purplish-black lightning, as thick as a water bucket, crashed down with destructive power.

Gu Yun neither dodged nor avoided.

He spread his arms wide, roared to the sky, and actually used his own body to withstand this world-destroying lightning.

Bang!

Purple lightning surged through his body!

Gu Yun's already mangled flesh was instantly charred and torn apart.

The terrifying characteristics of the Great Wilderness Body were fully revealed at this moment.

The destructive power of the thunder, while tearing his body apart, was also being frantically refined by the raging blood and qi within his body.

"Hahaha! That's great!"

Bathed in the thunder, Gu Yun resembled a thunder god resurrected from ancient times.

The power that had been depleted within him erupted again like a volcano under the stimulation of the heavenly lightning.

"You bunch of old dogs, you had a good time beating me up, didn't you?"

Gu Yun was enveloped in violent, purplish-black electric arcs. He stomped his foot hard, and the ground instantly shattered.

He carried with him the might of heaven, like a human lightning bolt, and charged directly at the five Golden Core elders who were frantically fleeing.

"Using the power of this heavenly thunder, I'll send you all to your deaths today!"

"No! Don't come any closer!"

The old monster sword cultivator from Wanjian Manor.

Seeing Gu Yun, who was enveloped in heavenly tribulation lightning, crashing towards them, they were terrified.

He was about to swing his sword to defend himself, but the pressure of the lightning tribulation had already slowed down the flow of his magical power.

"die!"

Gu Yun instantly closed in.

The iron fist, crackling with purple lightning, slammed into the swordsman's chest.

boom!

The immense physical strength combined with the might of the lightning tribulation meant that the old sword cultivator didn't even have time to scream before he and his protective sword aura were instantly smashed into a mixture of charcoal and blood mist.

"The first one!"

Gu Yun was like a tiger among sheep. The heavenly tribulation and lightning did not become his death warrant, but instead became his most terrifying killing cloak.

Any magical artifact or shield is as fragile as paper in front of an iron fist tainted with the purple lightning of heavenly tribulation!

"Sizzle!"

Gu Yun swiftly decapitated the old monster of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect with a backhand chop, the lightning flashing as he sliced ​​off his head!

"Bang! Bang!"

Two ferocious knee strikes shattered the sternums of the two Supreme Protectors of Blood Fiend Valley.

He then grabbed them by the neck and slammed them together violently, turning them into two charred corpses under the ravages of the thunder.

"Devil! You are the real devil!"

The last remaining sword cultivator monster completely collapsed.

He frantically burned his life essence, trying to escape the range of the lightning tribulation.

But against Gu Yun's lightning speed, everything was in vain.

"Go practice your swordsmanship in hell!"

Gu Yun descended from the sky and stomped heavily on his crown.

With a muffled thud as a watermelon shattered, the five Golden Core cultivators were completely annihilated by Gu Yun's frenzied slaughter, fueled by the power of lightning.

"Huff...huff..."

Gu Yun stood in the center of the five charred remains, looking up at the sky as he endured wave after wave of heavenly lightning.

With the fall of the five Golden Elixir Masters.

As if sensing that its target had been used against it, the heavenly tribulation unleashed a final, furious burst of thunder before the tribulation clouds finally dissipated.

Suddenly, the golden characters of the Book of Destiny appeared in his consciousness.

To activate the secondary column, please enter your name there.

[It is recommended to write down the name of your closest relative.]

Gu Yun was taken aback, not understanding why, and reflexively wrote down Mo Qianyan.

Gu Yun found no changes and put it aside for the time being.

Meanwhile, a tremendous transformation was taking place within Gu Yun's body.

Boom!

Bathed in the lingering power of thunder.

The Dao foundation within Gu Yun's dantian finally solidified completely with a resounding boom, reaching its peak.

The instant the foundation of his dantian was formed, an unprecedented upheaval occurred within Gu Yun's Purple Mansion of Consciousness between his eyebrows.

Buzz!

Those thirteen Dao Foundations, which were originally independent and suspended in the sea of ​​consciousness.

As if drawn by some mysterious law, it began to spin wildly.

They spun faster and faster, until they were connected end to end.

Ultimately, within the Purple Mansion, they formed a dazzling star ring, radiating an aura of gods and demons.

"This is……"

Gu Yun suppressed the shock to his soul and looked inward at himself.

Suddenly, a unique and extremely pure spiritual energy burst forth from the thirteen interconnected star rings.

This spiritual energy, like a raging dragon, broke through the barrier of the Purple Mansion and roared downwards along the Du Meridian of Gu Yun's spine.

Click click click click!

The long dragon of spiritual energy descended along the Du meridian, and wherever it passed, Gu Yun's spine, which had undergone countless temperings, was instantly stained with a layer of dark golden light.

boom!

Finally, this special channel of spiritual energy was successfully opened up to the dantian located in the lower abdomen.

It corresponds to the Purple Palace Star above and connects to the Dantian Earth Foundation below.

The Du Meridian acts as a bridge, connecting heaven and earth!

At this moment, the two cultivation systems within Gu Yun's body...

The Thirteen Pearls of the Purple Mansion for cultivating the mind and the foundation of the dantian for cultivating the spirit have finally merged perfectly together!

hum!

With the opening of the spiritual energy channel.

The thirteen beads suspended in the Purple Palace received the feedback and nourishment of the spiritual energy in the dantian at this moment.

Their originally somewhat ethereal surfaces instantly shed all impurities, becoming as solid as fine glass.

Within each bead, there seems to be a world of emotions, radiating a powerful aura that makes one's heart tremble!

Gu Yun suddenly opened his eyes.

His left eye was deep like the starry sky, while his right eye was scarlet like a sea of ​​blood.

He clenched his fist.

Feel the terrifying power within your body that flows from the Purple Palace to the Dantian, like an endless, ever-renewing force.

"The fourteen foundational principles connect heaven and earth."

Gu Yun raised his head, looking at the gradually clearing sky, a haughty laugh that seemed to look down on all living beings curled at the corners of his mouth.

"call……"

The simultaneous resonance of the fourteen Dao Foundations propelled him to the pinnacle of his life.

However, he had not yet had time to fully experience this new power.

Rumble!

Above the Blood-Weeping Ridge, the once-dispersed clouds were suddenly and forcibly torn apart without warning.

A terrifying pressure, hundreds or even thousands of times stronger than that of the Golden Core stage, descended with absolute crushing power!

"You scoundrel! You killed an elder of my valley and destroyed the foundation of my sect! Today, I will make you wish you were dead!"

Above the sky, an aged figure shrouded in a spectacle of mountains of corpses and seas of blood emerged, shattering the void.

The true foundation of Blood Fiend Valley lies in its Nascent Soul stage ancestor, the Blood Fiend Old Monster!

Following the overwhelming resentment that erupted before Xue Li and the others died, it traversed millions of miles and tore through space to descend.

"A Nascent Soul cultivator? Damn it, can't I even get a break? This is never going to end. But I'm at my peak condition too."

Gu Yun suddenly raised his head, feeling the terrifying pressure.

Those eyes, which had just regained their clarity, showed no fear whatsoever; instead, they were filled with a soaring fighting spirit.

"Arrogant ants, die!"

Enraged, the Blood Fiend Ancestor laughed and suddenly pressed his withered palm downwards.

boom!

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a ten-mile radius was instantly drained, transforming into a blood-red handprint that stretched for a thousand feet and blotted out the sky.

The Nascent Soul Law, imbued with the power to lock down space, slammed down towards Gu Yun's head!

This strike is enough to flatten the entire Bloodshed Ridge!

Gu Yun sneered and stomped his right foot hard on the ground!

"Great formation, activate!"

hum!

Centered on Gu Yun, the spirit stones in the storage rings of those cultivators who had just died in battle were instantly connected together under the forceful guidance of Gu Yun's divine sense.

A hastily assembled Five Elements Heaven-Locking Array rose from the ground!

boom!

The thousand-foot-long blood-red handprint slammed heavily onto the array's light barrier. The array flickered wildly, cracks spreading everywhere, yet it managed to withstand this attack from a Nascent Soul cultivator!

"A master of formations?"

The Blood Fiend Ancestor in mid-air narrowed his eyes, his heart filled with shock and horror.

But this is not over yet!

Gu Yun stood in the center of the nearly broken formation, slowly raising his left hand.

hum!

Within the Purple Mansion, the thirteen Dao Foundations began to operate with a roar.

Thirteen crystal-clear glass beads, radiating a heart-stirring aura of emotions and desires, slowly emerged from his palm.

But strangely enough...

These thirteen beads, which originally represented the mortal world, are now located at the deepest core of the site.

Each of them was actually flashing with a golden swastika symbol!

This was the very ancestral Buddha seal that had silently merged into his body outside the gate of the Vajra Temple years ago.

Under the baptism of the lightning tribulation and the opening of the Du meridian, this supreme Buddhist Dharma seal...

It actually fused perfectly with the ultimate Thirteen Beads of the Demonic Path!

The Buddha and the demon are one, making it extremely bizarre.

Gu Yun gently flicked it with her left thumb.

Like a leisurely tycoon, he slowly and methodically arranged the thirteen Buddha and Demon Beads.

"Click, click..."

The beads made a crisp, clear sound as they collided.

It could be clearly heard even under the pressure of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

With each pluck, Gu Yun's seven emotions and six desires were completely suppressed, and he entered a state of absolute rationality and ethereal tranquility.

Immediately afterwards, he brought his right hand together into a sword-like gesture and slowly raised it.

The spiritual energy in his dantian flowed through his meridians and burst forth from his fingertips, transforming into a three-foot-long, crystal-clear frost sword.

"This starting stance..."

Blood Fiend Ancestor stared intently at the sword incantation in Gu Yun's right hand, and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, a sense of absurdity welling up inside him.

"Old dog, take my sword!"

Gu Yun held the Buddha and Demon Thirteen Beads in his left hand.

With his right hand pointing towards the sky like a sword, he parted his thin lips and uttered four emotionless words.

"The Supreme Being...forgets emotions."

boom!

A snow-white sword light, extremely cold and pure, seemingly capable of freezing even time, shot into the sky!

This sword strike lacked the ferocity of the Great Wilderness Body, possessing only the ethereal and resolute quality of an immortal stroking my head, granting me eternal life.

"The ultimate technique of the Cold Moon Palace? What kind of Frankenstein's monster are you?"

Blood Fiend Ancestor screamed.

A burly man with dark bronze muscles, exuding the aura of an ancient tyrannosaurus.

With his left hand he held a magic bead imprinted with the Buddhist swastika, while with his right hand he unleashed the most aloof and detached Supreme Forgetfulness Sword Technique in the world.

This intense sense of incongruity almost caused the Blood Fiend Ancestor's Dao heart to collapse on the spot!

"The sea of ​​blood is boundless!"

The Blood Fiend Ancestor dared not be careless, unleashing all his Nascent Soul Laws, transforming them into a boiling sea of ​​Netherworld Blood to meet the icy sword light!

laugh!

The sword light slashed into the sea of ​​blood, but there was no earth-shattering explosion.

The Supreme Forgetfulness is the sword intent that cuts through everything.

It actually managed to split that sea of ​​blood containing the laws of the Nascent Soul in two, completely freezing it into ice.

The sword energy, still powerful, grazed the face of the Blood Fiend Ancestor, severing a lock of his withered white hair!

"You actually managed to hurt me?"

The Blood Fiend Ancestor touched a trace of blood on his cheek, both shocked and furious.

He, a dignified Nascent Soul cultivator, was actually forced back half a step by a mere youth who had just condensed his dantian foundation.

"Good! Good! Good! I'd like to see how many strikes you can actually unleash with this kind of swordsmanship that overdraws your potential and exceeds your level!"

Blood Fiend Ancestor was completely enraged and no longer held back.

He knew that Gu Yun's cultivation level was far lower than his own, and that such a burst of attacks could not be sustained.

"I'll wear you down to death here, you monster!"

The great war has completely broken out!

The entire Bloodshed Ridge has been transformed into a living hell.

The Blood Sea Law of the Nascent Soul stage clashed violently with Gu Yun's Supreme Forgetfulness Sword Intent and the Five Elements Grand Array!

one day.

Two days.

Two whole days and two nights!

The land within a hundred miles of Weeping Blood Ridge was razed by more than ten feet, all the mountain peaks were leveled, and even the poisonous miasma was completely wiped out.

High in the sky, the Blood Fiend Ancestor was panting heavily, his magnificent blood-red robe already tattered.

His once-proud Nascent Soul cultivation power had been depleted by nearly 70% during the intense battles over the past two days and two nights.

"What kind of freak is this kid...?"

Blood Fiend Ancestor stared intently at the man standing in the ruins below, his bloodshot eyes wide.

Gu Yun looked extremely miserable at that moment.

His body was covered with deep lacerations that exposed bone, his left arm was almost broken, and there wasn't a single good piece of flesh on his body.

The blood stained the ground beneath his feet dark black.

but!

Gu Yun's left hand was still steadily holding the thirteen swastika-shaped beads.

As the beads were moved, the violent energy and blood essence that had dissipated from the surrounding world due to the great battle were frantically absorbed by the thirteen beads.

Then it was fed back into Gu Yunman's body.

His back was ramrod straight.

The frost sword in his right hand not only did not dim, but instead, after two days and two nights of life-and-death trials, it became even stronger.

It became more dazzling and more sharp.

He raised his head, his expression devoid of emotion, his eyes fixed on the Blood Fiend Ancestor, a smile actually spreading across his lips.

"Old dog, haven't you eaten? Why are you so weak?"

Gu Yun licked the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Not only did he show no signs of exhaustion, but his fighting spirit burned even brighter, like oil being poured on a raging fire.

The more they fight, the stronger they become; they use war to fuel their own war effort!

As the Blood Fiend Ancestor watched the monster whose aura was rising instead of falling, seemingly tireless, he felt a chill run from his tailbone straight up to the top of his head.

"This is outrageous!"

This Nascent Soul cultivator, who had been a formidable figure in the Northern Spirit Realm for hundreds of years, finally couldn't hold back and burst into a tirade of curses!

He is afraid!

He originally intended to rely on his powerful magic at the Nascent Soul stage to wear Gu Yun down to death, but after two days and two nights of fighting, his magic was almost depleted, while the freak opposite him was absorbing it while fighting, becoming more and more energetic as the fight went on!

If this continues, my magical power will eventually be exhausted.

If this monster with its monstrous body gets close, a dignified Nascent Soul Ancestor would probably be caught off guard and beaten to death in this desolate wilderness.

Would he risk his life for a few dead disciples and followers?

Not worth it! Absolutely not worth it!

"You madman! I'll spare your life this time!"

Blood Fiend Ancestor gritted his teeth and uttered a harsh remark.

He didn't even bother to collect the storage rings of the elders who had died in battle. He transformed into a blood-red rainbow, tearing through the void and fleeing madly without looking back.

As he fled, the Blood Fiend Ancestor roared madly in his heart:

"Go back and issue the order: Blood Fiend Valley will be sealed off for a hundred years. All disciples must give way to this silver-haired monster at the first sign of trouble. Anyone who dares to provoke this plague god, I'll personally skin them alive!"

……

The wind stopped.

Amidst the ruins, Gu Yun held his sword pointed at him, maintaining that attacking posture for the full time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Until it was confirmed that the Blood Fiend Ancestor's aura had completely disappeared.

pat.

The thirteen beads on his left hand instantly dimmed, merging into his brow and returning to their respective foundations.

To Gu Yun's surprise, the Dao Foundation began to automatically nurture the thirteen beads.

puff!

Gu Yun's body, which had been taut to the extreme, suddenly went limp.

He knelt heavily on one knee.

He coughed up a mouthful of black blood, and his whole body deflated like a punctured balloon, instantly becoming extremely weak.

"Damn it... if this old bastard had held on for another half an hour, I would have really died here today."

Gu Yun was panting heavily.

He was in so much pain that he couldn't even lift a finger, but he burst into wild laughter.

He is Gu Yun.

With only the initial stage of establishing the dantian foundation, he forcefully forced back a true Nascent Soul ancestor.

The stench of blood lingered. Gu Yun knelt on one knee in the charred pit, panting heavily.

His once-proud, wild body was now covered with deep, bone-revealing cracks.

His left arm hung limply at his sides, and there was a palm print on his chest that nearly pierced his heart.
