Perfect World: The Path of Pure Source

The Sacrificial Realm, the ancestral land of the Eight-Armed Soul Clan.

A lone lamp hangs high, illuminating the vast, swirling black fog, carrying an oppressive and terrifying atmosphere.

"What is that? Why can't we even probe it with our divine sense?" The outside cultivators who rushed over were all horrified, not understanding what was happening, as they could not see the scene inside the black mist.

But when they saw the ethereal aura surrounding Yang Jian, everyone was stunned, then their expressions changed drastically, and they exclaimed, "Ethereal aura!"

These two words alone are enough to shake the ancient world and stir up huge waves. Someone has really taken that step!

"The Overlord has successfully cultivated immortal energy, surpassing all the ancient kings!" With the exclamation of the arriving deity, a tremendous wave of excitement was triggered, and everyone was thrilled, for they had witnessed a piece of history!

This is writing a new legend, cultivating immortality through only one lifetime of accumulation!

For the arriving cultivators, this was their first time witnessing immortal energy, causing a great stir in their hearts and a fanatical expression.

But soon, people saw the black mist that shrouded Yang Jian again. Although they could not see what was inside, they remembered the records in the ancient books.

"An ominous ancient lamp, a dark mist—this is the tribulation to overcome in cultivating immortality!"

"Such calamities have existed since ancient times. If it weren't for this, there would be far more beings cultivating immortality; most of them would have perished at this hurdle!"

Some people shuddered; the fact that the records in ancient books had become reality was still incredibly awe-inspiring.

At this moment, within the black mist that isolated them from the outside world, the old god and the ancestor of the Soul Clan looked solemnly at Yang Jian, praying in their hearts that he could overcome this calamity.

He stood there, surrounded by an ethereal aura, mysterious and holy, rippling outwards in layers of pale purple waves.

On the other side, the four powerful figures approached step by step, all exuding astonishing auras. Even a true god would be blasted into dust if they stood in front of them.

Yang Jian remained silent, only gazing at the four figures. They were not living beings, but rather the manifestations of four profound mysteries, coming to obstruct his path. Some were covered in bronze armor, some wore feathered robes, some were draped in iron armor with holes, and some wore wide-sleeved robes, all of them lifelike.

Boom!

They moved in unison, and when they reached Yang Jian, they all took a sudden step, unleashing pale waves of energy. Each of them possessed immense fighting power and unstoppable divine might.

"A mere avatar, how can it compare to me?" Yang Jian sneered, striding forward like a dragon and tiger, directly charging in, raising his fist to unleash a devastating attack, starting with the Heavenly Horn Ant Treasure Technique - Prison Suppressing Great Handprint! Instantly, the sky collapsed, transforming into a golden treasure seal that descended, its might overwhelming the land, threatening to crush all the mountains and valleys into a pile of mud.

Without a word, Jiutian stepped forward, his hands forming a mudra. The vast Three Thousand Dao Continents materialized from the void, directly colliding with the golden seal descending from the sky. Seeing this, Tianjiao Ant Body strode forward and threw a punch! It was powerful and heavy, without any fancy moves, but the surging power was enough to shatter a true god with a single punch.

The God-Slaying Stone reached out and pointed, and a surge of primordial spirit energy swept over, affecting Yang Jian's primordial spirit and causing him to momentarily become confused; at the same time, the Double-Pupiled Body also moved, its eyes shooting out divine light that could create heaven and earth, aiming straight for Yang Jian's brow.

With all four bodies moving simultaneously, a deadly trap was formed in an instant!

Boundless Blood! Although Yang Jian's primordial spirit was affected by the Divine Stone Technique, the little figure of his primordial spirit, adorned with the Soul Summoning Scripture talisman, regained consciousness after a slight sway. His physical body immediately unleashed a great technique, with vast blood energy runes evolving into mountains and seas, imprisoning the fist of the Heavenly Horned Ant Body that was smashing down. Then, a pair of Vermilion Bird Wings unfolded from his back, and with a flap, he avoided the killing light of the Double Pupil Body.

With lightning speed, he dodged the four men's killing moves, then turned and rushed towards them at lightning speed. With a tremor of his golden bow, he fired four divine stone silver bullets at the same time, causing the four figures to tremble and lose their composure. Seizing the opportunity, he took the lead in attacking the most threatening Divine Stone Body.

Whoosh! The two moved across the sky like lightning, so fast that outsiders could hardly see their shadows. After a brief exchange, Yang Jian seized the opportunity and summoned the Golden Ant Battle Soul when the God-Slaying Stone unleashed its attack, blocking the heavy blow. However, the God-Slaying Stone on the other side did not have such means. Its physical body was immobilized by the Blood Qi Mountain and Sea, and then a silver bullet smashed out its primordial spirit.

Before the illusory primordial spirit imprint could return to its physical body, Yang Jian wielded his golden bow and cleaved it in two, swiftly killing one of the avatars.

At this moment, the other three also recovered. Tianjiao Ant Body swung his palm and struck, and Yang Jian also retaliated with a palm strike. The two were evenly matched, with the same great power and even similar attack methods. When their palms clashed, it was as if the blazing sun exploded, and thousands of cracks spread in this space, extending in all directions, causing all the cultivators who came to tremble.

This level of skill, where the physical body alone can twist and shatter the void, is far too extraordinary.

"He's fighting the Heavenly Horned Ant with his physical body? He's insane!" The old god was dumbfounded when he saw this. This was too wild. Although it was just an evolution of the method and far from his true form, it was still quite terrifying.

After the clash, Yang Jian withdrew quickly, and spatial rifts tore open from his double pupils appeared on the spot. Ten continents constructed of runes crushed down, shattered by his punches.

At the same time, the Golden Bow King's battle spirit also flew out, briefly blocking the two incarnations.

After a brief exchange, Yang Jian had already ascertained the strength of his avatar. He immediately drew his fingers across his third eye between his brows and uttered a deep, resonant sound: "Overlord Blood Revival!"

His third eye suddenly shone brightly, unleashing a power that none of his four incarnations possessed. In an instant, a sea of ​​purple energy surged from the east, filling the heavens and the earth, immeasurably noble and awe-inspiring. A sound like a tsunami was also emitted, as if the entire starry sky had fallen and all the starlight had gathered together, every inch filled with purple radiance and purple flames.

"What is that? What's inside the black mist?" "And where does this purple blood energy come from?"

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" Boom! The massive surge of blood energy stunned many people in the distance. They were caught in the blast before they could escape, and their bodies became numb and weak. Some even fell from the sky, unable to withstand the impact.

The three who faced the attack were scattered. When they opened their eyes again, Yang Jian had already killed his way to the ant-like body and the double-pupil body, holding the Kunlu sword and the Tai'a sword in his hands.

One slash – Heaven's will cannot be defied / One sword – the vast void of the ten directions!

In an instant, the Heavenly Dao Blade, which reverses all things and strikes at weaknesses, and the sword energy that seals the heavens and earth, the six directions and eight wastelands, erupted simultaneously, shattering and tearing apart the two incarnations on the spot.

Just as the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Body was about to step over, Yang Jian's sword and saber suddenly extended, combining with the eight illusory figures flying out from his double pupils to evolve into the Ten Perfect Divine Weapons, forming a three-pointed double-edged spear.

With a whoosh, Yang Jian didn't even turn his head. He threw out the Ten Perfect Divine Weapons in his hand, which pierced through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths body on the spot, pinning him to the ground.

"Is it over?" The old god wondered. Logically speaking, such an imprint based on its own evolution should be very troublesome, but Yang Jian had obviously kept something in reserve, and many things had not been copied and revealed.

The Void Dao Ancestor of the Soul Clan murmured, "Having survived this tribulation, the path to immortal cultivation will be smooth sailing from now on."

Buzz! As the four incarnations were killed, the ancient lamp shook unwillingly, but could only disappear from the spot, and the mist dissipated.

Only when the black mist dissipated did the other cultivators see the scene clearly: a complete mess.

"The Overlord has broken through the Dark Calamity?" In the distant sky, people were almost suffocating. Not only did he cultivate immortal energy, but he also withstood the darkness and broke through it!

Such strength is truly terrifying.

"This is troublesome, really troublesome! We need to inform Lord Fallen God!" A True One cultivator from Fallen God Ridge looked grim. He never expected that Yang Jian would cultivate immortal energy so quickly and take that step, which could be said to have directly changed the situation of the Immortal Ancient Era.

"The Dark God Child must also know this news, otherwise there will be trouble." The creatures of the Underworld also showed worry and hurriedly left.

At the same time, the people from Sword Valley also left nervously, their expressions ashen. They were also very worried and couldn't help but whisper among themselves, "I wonder if Lord Lone Sword Cloud has taken that step? I hope he can stand against the Overlord."

"Let's go and report to Lord Six-Crown King!" The people from Fire Cloud Cave, Luofu True Valley, and Demon Dragon Dao Sect all looked helpless. The Overlord's momentum was already established, and they were in grave danger! Their only hope for survival now rested on Lord Six-Crown King.

The Heavenly Kingdom's forces also merged into the void, hastily departing. "The Heavenly Kingdom's number one assassin died at the hands of the Overlord. I hope my sect's true king can assassinate him!"

"Stop them, and try not to let the news leak out!" The celestial being of the Eight-Armed Soul Clan appeared, exuding murderous intent, and led his men to intercept some of the messengers.

As Yang Jian cultivated immortal energy and overcame the tribulation of darkness, all forces were shaken to their core. The powerful changed color and the heroes were terrified. This was a raging storm!

The title "Overlord" already overwhelmed most of the ancient geniuses, leaving them breathless and unable to even look up to him.

At this moment, Yang Jian stood in the field, glanced at the two heavily injured battle spirits within the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and suddenly felt that perhaps he should hunt down some young powerhouses and turn them into his own battle spirits.

"Waiting for others to come to me is not my style. I'll take the initiative and sweep them all away." His gaze sharpened as he fixed his eyes on the distance, ready to launch a preemptive strike.

Sweep across the three thousand realms, and conquer all enemies!

To conquer the world with force!

Just then, a group of natives also gathered outside the Eight-Armed Soul Clan.

"Fellow Daoist of the Soul Clan, the Centaur Clan requests an audience to discuss matters with the Overlord!"

"Fellow Daoist of the Soul Clan, the Beauty Clan requests an audience to discuss matters with the Overlord!"

"Fellow Daoist of the Soul Clan, the Ancient Demon Clan requests an audience, wishing to assist the Overlord in choosing a spouse!"

Three of the celestial gods arrived together, their voices reaching the Eight-Armed Soul Clan's territory, shaking the heavens and attracting the attention of everyone present, who were all astonished and suspicious.

The three ancient immortal clans all came for Yang Jian!

Cultivating immortal energy carries a different meaning, especially since he also has the identity of an ancient immortal descendant. This is an advantage that outsiders do not have, making him naturally approachable to the indigenous people, who also have a stronger sense of belonging and identity.

"It's bad enough that the Overlord has the Eight-Armed Soul Clan backing him up, but now three more clans are coming to help him? How can they possibly fight back?" For a moment, the cultivators of this realm were stunned and speechless.

The original inhabitants of Xiangu really do have powerful backers!
