The vast sea of thunder rolled, immense pressure swept across all heavens and myriad domains, and endless lightning illuminated a large expanse of the starry sky. Countless stars were drawn into the sea of thunder, silently turning to ash, and distant stars were shattered by the thunder. Fortunately, this place was in the vast uninhabited region on the edge of the universe, otherwise, countless lives would have been annihilated.
The sea of thunder continuously expanded, eventually forming three layers: upper, middle, and lower. This was an unprecedented manifestation of three great heavenly tribulations simultaneously. Despite only one person proving the Dao, three top-tier heavenly tribulations descended, which was enough to show the extraordinary nature of his Dao fruit. The uppermost layer was the Thirty-Three Heavens Creation Immortal Tribulation, within which countless immortal palaces stood tall, with thirty-three Heavenly Lords presiding over the thirty-three heavens, and immortal qi permeated the air.
The bottom layer was the Avici Hell Demon Tribulation, with eighteen layers of hell filled with vengeful ghosts and spirits, overflowing with death qi. Countless figures with Liang Yu's face were dismembered by various torture instruments, emitting wails, and eighteen Demon Kings presided within, emanating a sinister demonic aura.
The middle layer, however, was simple and direct: humanoid figures floated in the sea of thunder. These were projections of various attained the Daos from the Mythological Era onwards, including Daode Tianzun, who had a Taiji Diagram above his head, and Lingbao Tianzun, who wielded the Immortal Slaughtering Four Swords, as well as the seven Celestial Lords who had already appeared.
Auras surged within the forbidden zones, and countless figures like demon gods appeared.
"This generation's attained the Dao seems unusual. Could it be that he, like Daode and Lingbao, has achieved the supreme Dao fruit in a certain key domain?"
"Divine Body proving the Dao, can this physique, when pushed to its extreme, really create such a grand spectacle? Perhaps only a Chaos Body could surpass it."
"The Immortal Ascension Road will open in over a hundred thousand years. If we can obtain his divine blood…"
The Supremes fell silent.
Liang Yu took a deep breath, and stars spanning countless billions of miles instantly dimmed. His Five Secret Realms shone brightly, with countless runes in each secret realm forming various wondrous Dao forms, sometimes evolving yin and yang, sometimes rotating the five elements, sometimes constructing reincarnation, and sometimes transforming into the universe…
And his body was also extraordinarily unique; with his divine blood boiling, countless ancient gods were hidden within every inch of his skin, collectively emitting divine sounds. Under the vast divine might, a towering Divine Emperor Seal, resembling the lord of all things and the chief of all gods, appeared behind him.
If anyone were observing, they would notice that this Divine Emperor Seal had no back; no matter from which angle, one could only face its front.
The Divine Emperor Seal raised his hands, and countless divine palaces and immortal palaces rose from the ground, with various divine spirit projections also appearing, conjuring an eternal and indestructible divine kingdom out of thin air.
This Divine Emperor Seal and Eternal Divine Kingdom anomaly were the results of Liang Yu pushing and evolving his Divine Body to its extreme.
With a flash of lightning, Liang Yu's true body appeared within the eighteen layers of hell. Demonic sounds assailed him, greatly disturbing his mind, and countless torture instruments were applied to his body, as if to slowly dismember him.
He did not activate the Divine Emperor Seal and Divine Kingdom anomalies to save himself. Instead, he made them fly upward and collide with the Thirty-Three Heavens.
Countless law runes appeared around Liang Yu, evolving into various techniques. With a movement of his hands, an Opening Heaven Seal descended, and Chaos Qi permeated the air. He seemed to transform into a giant, wielding a giant axe to open the heavens. The hell formed by this vast sea of thunder was split open by his single strike.
The eighteen Demon Kings were enraged, emitting sharp shrieks as they charged towards Liang Yu. Liang Yu formed another seal; his left hand held the Taiyang Divine Seal, and his right hand held the Tai Yin Divine Seal. The two seals combined to form a Taiji Diagram, directly suppressing the eighteen Demon Kings.
He cast the Heaven Sealing Dao Seal, locking the entire sea of thunder hell into a cage. Then, he opened his mouth and inhaled, like a glutton, swallowing the sea of thunder into his belly.
Lightning continuously dissipated, but he ultimately refined it.
The Qiankun Creation Pagoda floated with him in hell, and eighteen ferocious, awe-inspiring Demon Kings, baring their fangs and claws, appeared on its walls.
At this point, his two great anomalies were at their limit. Liang Yu stepped forward, retrieved the anomalies, and cast another Opening Heaven Seal at the shattered Thirty-Three Heavens, causing countless immortal palaces to crumble and vanish.
The thirty-three Heavenly Lords surrounded him, forming a special formation. Immediately, the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth condensed into a Heavenly Treasure Seal, pressing down fiercely.
Liang Yu's body moved, forming a Void Seal. He seemed to merge into the void, becoming untouchable. Then, he instantly appeared behind one of the Heavenly Lords, and a Star River Seal descended, like the Milky Way pouring down, washing away that corner of the formation.
The Qiankun Creation Pagoda flew out, landing in the center of the sea of thunder, and countless lightning bolts rolled back, being absorbed into the pagoda. Liang Yu, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, unleashed the Reincarnation Seal, Divine Emperor Seal, Killing Seal, and Nirvana Seal in succession, shattering the Heavenly Lords one by one.
After absorbing all the lightning, the pagoda returned to the top of Liang Yu's head. After these two rounds of intense battle, although Liang Yu's body was stained with blood, his aura grew even stronger, and his Dao became more and more closely integrated with this universe.
The lightning in the middle finally stopped changing, and twenty-four figures emerged, with an unknown number of figures failing to condense successfully. These were most of the attained the Daos from the Mythological Era since Dujie Tianzun. Among them, eight figures were subtly the most profound. Besides the seven Great Heavenly Lords, there was also a figure emanating Corpse Qi, with a pure white Reincarnation Seal seemingly appearing within his body.
This was Nether Emperor! He was the Dujie Tianzun's emperor corpse that gained sentience and proved the Dao a second time. It was precisely because of this that his method became widely spread, imitated and experimented with by countless Supremes, ultimately leading to the Corpse Calamity that affected the entire universe hundreds of thousands of years ago. Fortunately, Lingbao Tianzun proved the Dao and suppressed the chaos with the Immortal Slaughtering Four Swords, bringing peace. But even so, the Netherworld still stood firm, becoming a forbidden land.
His figure actually existed simultaneously with Dujie Tianzun, and his aura even seemed to surpass his former self.
Fortunately, these twenty-four figures did not come forward simultaneously but engaged in a continuous, seamless relay battle.
Liang Yu circulated the Dou Character Secret and went forward, fighting desperately, heedless of his own life. Whenever he dispersed the previous figure, a second figure would immediately attack.
He fought bitterly for a long time, finally dispersing most of the figures. But the remaining eight figures were the most difficult to deal with.
Dujie Tianzun stepped forward, and in response to Liang Yu's Opening Heaven Seal attack, he directly activated the Lin Character Secret of the Nine Secrets. The terrifying attack, capable of shattering the universe and opening up heaven and earth, was directly blocked without any damage.
Liang Yu couldn't help but exclaim, "As expected of Dujie Tianzun." His Wading Through Tribulation Heavenly Technique was about taking worldly tribulations as his trials; as long as he survived myriad tribulations, he could achieve an immortal body. This Lin Character Secret was his supreme achievement, the strongest defensive method. Once used, it could make him immune to all techniques, rendering his body indestructible.
Strictly speaking, this secret technique and Liang Yu's Dou Character Secret were mutually restraining. One was the strongest offensive method, and the other was the strongest defensive method, a classic reappearance of the sharpest spear and the most impenetrable shield.
But Liang Yu remained confident. The attained the Daos in the Shrouding the Heavens world were characterized by their overflowing self-confidence, always talking tough until they were truly defeated, like Stone Emperor's famous quote, "Let Wushi come."
But in fact, there was nothing wrong with this. If an attained the Dao didn't even believe in his own Dao, what else could he believe in?
"Dujie Tianzun, Lin Character Secret, I have long admired your name. Today, I want to see whether your defense is harder or my attack is sharper. I only hope this imprint can truly replicate your power from back then."
