Chapter 264 Seriously, I Can’t Stop You

The last Heavenly Tribulation lasted for an hour.

The Heavenly Tribulation had a hint of unwillingness after “performing abnormally”. It could not wait to squeeze out the last bit of the Heavenly Tribulation’s power to kill the person who dared to escape the Heavenly Tribulation…

However, there was really not a single drop left…

Li Changshou sat cross-legged on the magma lake in the air. His body was filled with rich immortal light. His essence soul was in the same position as his Dao Body. At that moment, it was filled with golden light, revealing mysterious Dao runes.

In comparison, the small Sea God steel trident, ahem, and the Sea God’s Divine Power Treasure at the side appeared much dimmer. Overcoming the Tribulation Transcendence and obtaining longevity was a sublimation of Li Changshou’s Immortal Dao. It had nothing to do with the Divine Dao.

The phantoms of the three twelfth-grade Green Lotuses appeared on his chest, abdomen, and forehead. They slowly floated behind him, gathered above his head, bloomed, and slowly rotated. Li Changshou’s heart was empty. His Dao turned invisible and continued to expand in the world…

It was as if there was a wall in the world. Since ancient times, countless names had been left on it. At that moment, Li Changshou had also engraved his name on it. The five-colored aura at his chest moved again, transforming into a pure five-element aura that returned to various parts of Li Changshou’s body, allowing his Dao Body and essence soul to fuse perfectly. His Qi, spirit and body were gathered, and the five Qi returned to their origins. Is this the Golden Immortal realm? His Dao Body was light and ethereal, as if it was going to be blown away by the wind. His essence soul was like it was carved from immortal jade. His immortal senses slowly spread out, and he could already reconnoiter in places that were 5,000 kilometers away.

The world is close to me, and all things live with me.

My destiny is not tied to me. The Great Dao resonates with me.

Since then, he had jumped out of the reincarnation cycle. His name was not recorded in the Book of Mortal Life. The five elements and Yin and Yang were born together, so it was still too clear. Li Changshou felt a sense of peace in his heart. He was even… a little touched. His nose felt a little sore.

He had finally become a Golden Immortal.

Although he did not have the ability to protect himself in the Primordial World, nor did he have any powerful Dharma treasures to protect himself, he only had some mystical abilities and Dharma spells that could allow him to deal with some simple battles.

However, he already had the Dao Fruit of Longevity and was qualified to become the Saint’s human Dharma treasure…

If he worked a little harder and found a corner to hide, he would be able to survive.

The Immortal Ascension was like an ant getting a pair of wings. With longevity, he finally had a decent human form and was considered a third-rate expert in the Primordial World…

It was not easy for him to make it this far.

Every day, he was worried that he would be crushed by the Western Saints. He was worried that he would be embroiled in a calamity. He had also planned and schemed for it without regard for his own safety. He had managed to cozy up to the powerful figure of Ren School. I shall not say much.

I’m touched!

Here’s a heart shape for the Saint and the Great Daoist Master!

Li Changshou spat out the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill in his mouth. However, he thought for a while and swallowed it.

There’s no hurry. Let’s wait a little longer. If he really could not use it this time, he could wipe it and give it to Ling’e during the Immortal Ascension Tribulation.

Anyway, he saved it! The Qi Refinement cultivators started cultivating their Dao. Before they became immortals, they searched for their own Dao. After they became immortals, they stepped onto their own Dao. When they reached the perfected Heaven Immortal realm, their Dao Fruits had already “matured” and were ready to be tested by the Heavenly Dao…

After transcending the Golden Immortal Tribulation, it would prove that their Dao could be established in the world. The Qi Refinement cultivators could rely then on their own Dao to live forever.

Entering the Primordial World, becoming a disciple, cultivating in inaction, and gaining enlightenment… Images surfaced in Li Changshou’s mind. The memories that he had brought with his True Spirit before entering the Primordial World gradually became clearer. Many things that he had forgotten were reflected in his heart through the Great Dao. The enlightenment in his heart slowly rose. A crack in the Door of Profundity that had opened to Li Changshou previously was revealed in front of him. Next, as long as he advanced, he would be able to take another small step forward after he became a Golden Immortal…

However, Li Changshou was not in a hurry to push the door open and enter.

He was waiting…

The shattered Tribulation Cloud in the sky turned into endless spiritual energy and gathered towards Li Changshou.

The tiny essence soul opened its mouth and sucked in a mouthful of the pure spiritual energy that poured into Li Changshou’s Dao Body before getting swallowed by it. It supported his continued transformation. At that moment, everything within a five-hundred-kilometer radius was enveloped by the sunlight. A golden rain of light fell from the sky. All living beings that were touched by the rain of light would be cured of their illnesses and disasters. Those who were dying would be full of vitality.

In the golden rain of light, the figures of fairies, old men, and Heavenly Generals appeared. The fairies danced, and the old men congratulated them. The Heavenly Generals were practicing their battle formations in the sky.

There were also immortal cranes forming auspicious signs. A few golden phoenixes and silver dragons were revolving in the sky. An acre of clouds lifted Li Changshou up slowly. A lotus flower pagoda slowly descended from the sky, as if it was crowning Li Changshou.

However, Li Changshou was still waiting. He was not in a hurry to push open the door and enter the Dao Enlightenment realm… He was not afraid that he would be in danger after entering the Dao Enlightenment realm. The Great Daoist Master was not far away.

He was waiting, waiting…

It’s here!

A gray cloud appeared out of thin air and squeezed into the crowd of phenomena. It pressed down on Li Changshou and stopped at a height of 10,000 feet. An old man’s face appeared on the gray cloud again. He looked at Li Changshou. The phenomenon in the sky continued, but Li Changshou could not help but feel nervous. He pondered over what he should say…

Fifty kilometers away, the Tribulation Transcendence observers stood up.

They originally wanted to congratulate Li Changshou, but when they saw the gray cloud appear, they stopped. “There’s still a Heavenly Tribulation?” Qiong Xiao frowned and asked, “This disciple is cultivating for immortality. Is there a need for the Heavenly Dao to be so difficult?” Yun Xiao reprimanded, “Don’t say anything more. These are all Fellow Daoist Sea God’s opportunities.”

The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du held the Taiji Painting in his hand and pinched his fingers to calculate. Soon, he smiled and said, “It’s fine. Changshou has advanced too quickly in cultivation. It doesn’t conform to the logic of the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Punishment has been deliberately triggered. The Heavenly Punishment is meant to increase his experience and not kill him.” Just as Great Daoist Master Xuan Du finished speaking, the old man’s face on the gray cloud dissipated. A bolt of purple lightning descended from the sky! Green light flickered around Li Changshou and condensed into a light cocoon… He directly used the newly upgraded Golden Immortal realm immortal power!

However, when the divine lightning landed, it did not destroy the phenomena that filled the sky. It ignored Li Changshou’s immortal power protection and struck Li Changshou’s chest, causing his skin and flesh to tear apart. A terrifying wound appeared on his chest! However, that injury was not serious. Li Changshou’s essence soul was safe and sound. “Thank you for the punishment, Heavenly Dao!”

Li Changshou shouted loudly. His body swayed, but he insisted on bowing with a Dao salute. It was perfect. Without the final Heavenly Punishment segment, he felt that something was missing At that moment, Li Changshou felt at ease…

Eh? Why hasn’t the gray cloud dissipated yet? Yes, it should be about to strike me twice.

Upon seeing that scene and hearing that, the Great Daoist Master and the Three Xiao Immortals had different expressions. The Great Daoist Master and Yun Xiao nodded with a smile. Bi Xiao and Qiong Xiao were puzzled.

On Li Changshou’s side, another bolt of Heavenly Tribulation lightning struck, causing Li Changshou to vomit three liters of blood. He knelt on one knee in the air. “Thank you, Heavenly Dao… for punishing me!”

Li Changshou shouted loudly. Then, he frowned and looked at the gray cloud in the sky. He had already struck twice. Why did it not dissipate?

With the same doubts, the Great Daoist Master requested for the power of the Taiji Painting. He pinched his fingers and deduced. Soon, he said,

“This is punishing him for escaping into the Heavenly Tribulation during the previous Tribulation Transcendence.”

Yun Xiao nodded gently and asked, “Then why haven’t the clouds of Heavenly Punishment dissipated?”

“Um…”

The Great Daoist Master pondered for a while and deduced one or two more things. He said, “The manifestation of the heavenly secrets is to punish him for severing his Dao Realm nine times and going against the Heaven’s Will… It seems that there are more than three.”

Fifty kilometers away, the third bolt of Heavenly Punishment Divine Lightning struck. This time, it directly struck Li Changshou, causing him to convulse.

The gray cloud had yet to dissipate! The Great Daoist Master and Yun Xiao looked at each other. The two of them instantly turned into two streams of light and appeared beside Li Changshou in the blink of an eye. At that moment, Li Changshou dispersed the immortal power around the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill in his mouth. The Nine Revolutions Golden Pill trembled slightly and turned into rays of golden light that entered various parts of Li Changshou’s body. After suffering three consecutive Heavenly Punishments, Li Changshou’s consciousness was already blurry. At that moment, he felt the aura of the Great Daoist Master and Fairy Yun Xiao. He felt a little more at ease. He did not forget to say, “Thank you, Heavenly Dao Master… for taking the time to strike me…”

Yun Xiao, who had a serious expression, could not help but laugh when she heard that. The Great Daoist Master also supported his forehead with his hand.

Next, Yun Xiao and the Great Daoist Master attacked at the same time. The former rotated the golden battle sword in his hand and turned it into a five-feet-tall figure that pulled Li Changshou into it. The Great Daoist Master waved his long sleeve, and the image of a Taiji Painting blocked the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice. However, what caught Yun Xiao and the Great Daoist Master off guard was…

Above, the Tribulation Cloud trembled slightly and disappeared.

There was a sound of something cracking coming from inside the Golden Chalice! A small gray cloud appeared above Li Changshou’s head in the Primordial Chaos Metal Dipper. It unleashed the Divine Lightning of Heavenly Punishment on Li Changshou again!

“This!”

The Great Daoist Master and Yun Xiao looked at each other. Both of them were extraordinary figures and naturally knew what he meant.

He could not stop the Heavenly Punishment, nor could he!

“Senior Brother Xuan Du!”

“There’s no hurry. He used the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill. The power of the Heavenly Punishment is not too strong. It can’t destroy his soul. It will only severely injure him.”

Yun Xiao frowned and asked, “But why?”

Great Daoist Master Xuan Du muttered to himself for a while. This time, he sat down cross-legged and quickly formed a seal with his hands. Then, he placed one hand on the Golden Chalice and pinched his fingers to calculate.

Behind the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du, a three-feet-wide black and white Taiji Painting appeared. This time, Xuan Du sensed a strange heavenly secret. After carefully sensing it, some information appeared in his heart… Then, he looked at the situation in the Golden Chalice. Li Changshou, who was originally unconscious, was struck by the Heavenly Punishment. He hugged his head and jumped around. He relied on the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill to continuously heal his injuries and was continuously injured by the Heavenly Punishment.

Great Daoist Master Xuan Du tilted his head and the following scene appeared in his heart…

There seemed to be an angry old Daoist priest on the Tribulation Cloud. He threw a lightning whip at Li Changshou below. Every time he swung it, he would shout,

“Do you want to transcend the tribulation?”

“Do you want to transcend the tribulation!?!” “You even have a ninety-eight percent chance of transcending the tribulation. Why don’t you have a hundred percent chance of obtaining the Zenith Heaven? Are you spoiled?” It was purely just his imagination.

“Uh…”

The corners of Great Daoist Master Xuan Du’s mouth twitched. He was speechless.

Yun Xiao hurriedly asked, “Senior Brother Xuan Du, how is it?”

“This…” The Great Daoist Master pondered for a while and said, ” The heavenly secrets cannot be revealed.”

He still used the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill.

Li Changshou really could not understand. He did not do anything that would harm the heavens. Why did the Heavenly Dao grab him and strike him with twelve Heavenly Punishment Divine Lightnings? Fortunately, he had the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill to keep him alive and the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice to quickly stabilize his injuries and restore his vitality. Otherwise, he might really become the shortest-lived Golden Immortal in the history of the Primordial World! The Primordial World was really too dangerous. After the Tribulation Transcendence, he had already repeatedly warned himself that he could not float or expand. He had to be grounded. The Golden Immortal realm was only average in the Primordial World. The Great God-Conferment Tribulation was right in front. If there were no variables, even experts like Master Zhao and the Three Xiao Immortals would not be able to escape… However, Li Changshou’s brainstorming was meaningless. He had just transcended the Golden Immortal Tribulation. In the blink of an eye, he had been taught a lesson by the Heavenly Dao! He had been whipped by the Divine Lightning of the Heavenly Punishment time and time again. He had had a close shave with death several times. Only then did he realize how insignificant he was. Longevity was just a grain of sand in his palm. If he did not hold it tightly, it would be gone…

However, speaking of which, Yun Xiao’s Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice was quite comfortable.

Li Changshou took a deep breath and checked his injuries. The powerful medicinal effects of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill were still spreading. He did not need to worry about his injuries.

His Dao base was intact, his Dao Fruit was fine, but…

It hurt.

No matter what, he had survived the Golden Immortal Tribulation and entered a new stage. Later, he could slow down his Dao Enlightenment and focus his attention on merit, alchemy, numinous treasures, escape techniques, and so on. He could increase his strength and life-saving abilities. Now, he could say that the Golden Immortal realm was stable! Li Changshou calmed his mind and pushed open the Door of Profundity. He walked in! Of course, before that, Li Changshou had used the paper effigy to place a note regarding the matter of him going into seclusion for about twelve years in the Dao Sect. He had used the method of writing a note to place it at the foot of his residence in the Heavenly Palace, as well as at the foot of Ao Yi’s statue in the Sea God Temple. He had also informed the Heavenly General guarding the residence and used his spiritual will to call out to Ao Yi. When one entered the Door of Profundity during the Immortal Ascension Tribulation, they would have a huge leap in their cultivation realm, which was known as ascension.

During the Golden Immortal Tribulation, even if he entered the Door of Profundity again, it would be impossible for him to ascend.

A perfected ninth-stage Golden Immortal could be called a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal.

That was a brand new realm and a brand new level of life. Li Changshou did not know how many steps he could take, but he was not in a hurry.

If he was more stable, he would consolidate his realm this time. He did not want to advance.

Just as Li Changshou began to recuperate and enter seclusion in the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice…

In the Lingxiao Treasure Hall of the Heavenly Courts, General Dongmu presented a memorial to the platform and said with a smile, “Your Majesty, according to your request, we have already sorted out the various benefits of the position of the legitimate god of the Heavenly Courts. I believe that this will be extremely attractive to the dragon race.”

The young man in white lowered his head and looked at it for a while. Soon, he smiled and said, “Yes, that’s right. Remember to tell the contents of this memorial to Changgeng before the notification.”

“I accept your orders.” “By the way, General Dongmu.” The white-robed young man looked at the eighteenth line written on the memorial and smiled. “Guess what the cultivation level of Minister Changgeng is?” General Dongmu pondered for a while and said, “I’ve only seen the incarnation of the Sea God. I can’t see through him. However, he is at least above the Golden Immortal realm. It’s also possible that he is in the Zenith Heaven realm. The contents of this memorial should be dispensable to him. I didn’t mention it to him previously.” “I think so too. The convenience of these righteous gods does not mean much to you, Changgeng.” The white-robed young man nodded slowly. He shifted his gaze away from the eighteenth “righteous god welfare’ on the memorial and continued to say irrelevant things to General Dongmu.

On the memorial, it was written:

“No. 18: If you become a legitimate god in the Heavenly Courts, you can avoid the Immortal Ascension Tribulation. During the Golden Immortal Tribulation, you only need to hold a Heavenly Dao Divine Power Treasure and can avoid one Heavenly Tribulation.”
