Eternal Tale

Chen Xun’s deep and suppressed roar echoed.

Vast purple lightning columns intertwined in the chaos, as if they were about to split the heavens and earth, enveloping this insignificant cultivator of longevity.

These purple thunder dragons were numerous, densely packed like a sea of rules, vast and boundless. They coiled and swam within the chaotic sea of lightning.

Each thunder dragon there represented a unique rule of heaven and earth. They flapped their wings, emitting piercing thunderous roars, fiercely charging towards Chen Xun!

Boom! Boom!

Chen Xun’s body was surrounded by the dense and terrifying chaotic tribulation, like an ancient mountain of lightning, shining with mysterious purple light.

Around him, countless purple thunder dragons spiraled and danced, magnificent and grand. In an instant, a purple thunder dragon of myriad rules pierced through Chen Xun’s body, emitting a thunderous roar like the wrath of the heavens.

Swoosh—

At this moment, a world-shattering axe light sliced through the chaos, penetrating the sea of tribulation lightning!

Chen Xun’s aura surged endlessly. In an instant, he swung his axe, and a million strands of rule power resonated, shaking the chaos, churning the sea of lightning, instantly piercing through the blockade of myriad rule thunder dragons, tearing apart the chaotic sea of tribulation lightning.The axe light shimmered with brilliant radiance, like a galaxy pouring down, illuminating the dark chaotic sea of tribulation lightning.

The rule thunder dragons rolled under the crushing axe light, emitting muffled collision sounds. The axe light cleaved through the bodies of myriad rule thunder dragons, as beautiful and fleeting as a rainbow after the rain.

The shattered bodies of the thunder dragons turned into starlight, dissipating in the vast chaos.

Yet at this moment, Chen Xun’s expression changed slightly. A rule power attached to the source of his immortal path within him disappeared with the destruction of the thunder dragon!

”...What the hell is this?!”

Chen Xun couldn’t help but exclaim in shock. Could it be that even resistance was futile... He was well-versed in many things now, but could a tribulation really destroy his rule power?!

Moreover, he didn’t even feel any method at work; his myriad rule power just vanished abruptly...

Boom!

Just as he was lost in thought, the majestic rule thunder dragons suddenly charged at him, and the death energy demon shadow behind him finally moved, a pair of giant hands covering the sky instantly reaching out to grab them.

Those myriad rule thunder dragons, fearless and unafraid, roared with heavenly wrath, locking onto the aura of the one undergoing tribulation, ignoring everything else, solely to annihilate the tribulation-crossing being!

And just as they charged forward, the giant hands covering the sky had already descended, stirring up the chaotic sea of lightning, grasping dozens of purple thunder dragons within, squeezing fiercely.

Boom—

Boundless tribulation lightning burst forth from the palm, the rule thunder dragons struggled and writhed, instantly turning into fragments of lightning... unable to resist even for a moment.

Chen Xun’s whole body shook, and he unexpectedly took a few steps back at this moment, the rule power refined within him dissipating by dozens more.

”This chaotic tribulation, who dares to cross it, who can cross it?!”

He spoke in a deep voice, standing with an axe atop the chaotic tribulation lightning. Naturally, he knew this tribulation-crossing knowledge, but clearly, the cultivators who died here left little useful information.

Only the chaotic clan might know its chaotic secrets, but how could he possibly come into contact with them!

Chen Xun’s brow twitched. If he continued crossing the tribulation like this, wouldn’t he end up with nothing?!

Though this chaotic tribulation was fierce, it struck with the power of heaven and earth rules, yet it had a limit, not as outrageous as when the chaotic Great Venerable was present last time.

The myriad rule power seemed to be the limit for grand world cultivators, but with the system’s enhancement, this chaotic tribulation was the easiest he had ever felt among all the tribulations he had crossed.

But this chaotic tribulation was so bizarre, daring to dissipate the rule power he painstakingly refined?!

”You damn thing...” Chen Xun laughed in anger, overlooking the vast chaotic sea of lightning, ”I’ve always been the Dao Ancestor who takes from others, and you thunder dragons dare to take from me!”

”Let the world be in turmoil!”

Swoosh!

His grand voice echoed in the four directions of chaos. Chen Xun dove down, madly charging into this chaotic sea of lightning, the power of the Five Elements filling the surroundings, refining the chaotic tribulation thunder dragons!

Boom—

The tribulation lightning columns spanning the chaos trembled, the death energy demon shadow’s cold gaze focused, soaring into the sky.

A vast black sea of death energy spread out, contending with the entire chaotic sea of lightning.

Chen Xun sat cross-legged in the chaotic sea of lightning, each massive purple thunder dragon dissipating the moment it struck before him, using myriad rules to counter millions of rule power, like an ant shaking a tree, unable to even approach Chen Xun’s body.

But this chaotic tribulation was too bizarre, offering no heavenly gifts to reap, solely striking at everything he had, even if he succeeded in crossing the tribulation, he would only become a useless person.

”Although the chaotic tribulation is the limit for grand world cultivators, under the Five Elements rules of this Dao Ancestor, how will you respond...”

A slightly mocking low laugh slowly echoed, spreading to every corner of the chaotic sea of lightning, each rule thunder dragon forcibly refined under the Five Elements rules.

Chen Xun was covered in lightning, his expression gradually becoming serene under this vast tribulation. It turned out the tribulation’s gift was not after the chaotic tribulation, but within it!

The thunderous collapse sounded endlessly, the chaotic sea of lightning churned violently, even the chaotic void was being obliterated.

Above the sea of lightning, the death energy demon shadow suppressed the four directions of tribulation lightning columns with unparalleled grandeur.

It exuded a cold and powerful aura, as if the shadow of death shrouded the entire tribulation, the lightning columns and death energy intertwined, filled with a shocking murderous aura, full of thunderous roars.

A black and white flower of essence slowly hovered in the void, blooming within the chaotic tribulation. Chen Xun unleashed all his means, revealing his trump cards, the vast tribulation thunder dragons’ gifts continuously forcefully feeding back into him.

Chen Xun’s body was like an incarnation of thunder, surrounded by endless lightning. A trace of the chaotic sea of lightning’s aura suddenly surged from within him, an aura that could shake the heavens and earth, the laws of heaven and earth!

”Thank you for the gift of chaotic heaven and earth, I won’t stand on ceremony.”

Chen Xun smiled slightly, his sharp gaze directed at the tribulation thunder dragons attacking from all directions, his entire body enveloped in the divine light of the Five Elements, refining the essence of the tribulation into his body!

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Strands of divine light intertwined and surrounded him, rushing out from the depths of the chaotic sea of lightning.

The rule power within Chen Xun’s body was rapidly regressing, but due to the continuous supplementation from refining the tribulation, the power of the Five Elements rules was gradually transforming into true laws!

This was the greatest function of refining the chaotic tribulation, forcibly converting the rule power within him into the power of heaven and earth laws. In the Tribulation Crossing stage, every move could destroy the heavens and earth, a great tribulation of heaven and earth.

The power of laws in the Tribulation Crossing stage, also known as tribulation power, could mobilize the rule power between heaven and earth, causing drastic changes in the heavens and earth, controlling clouds and rain, changing celestial phenomena, all included within.

It could be said to truly approach the legendary power of immortals, capable of harnessing the power of heaven and earth, changing the universe, possessing the ability to destroy everything, and the strength of the laws.

It was related to the cultivation during the Tribulation Crossing stage, condensing one’s rule power during the Great Ascension stage, encompassing myriad great laws, from disorder to order, walking one’s true path of immortality.

Some cultivators entered the Tribulation Crossing, suddenly enlightened, comprehending the great laws of heaven and earth, advancing to the mid-Tribulation Crossing stage, until their talent was exhausted, or they obtained great opportunities, breaking through the shackles of their rule power during the Great Ascension stage.

Others, once with stunning talent, could not enter the path their entire lives, lamenting the difficulty of defying fate, stuck at the early Tribulation Crossing stage, unable to glimpse the mysteries of the laws of heaven and earth.
