Chapter 1561
As he sensed the explosive force piercing through the void and about to engulf the entire celestial realm, Xu Shan waved his hand and erected a barrier in front of the sky, blocking the shockwave.
After several dozen breaths, the impact weakened.
Instantly, Xu Da Guanren, who had activated the [Zhou Tian Xing Dou Array], completely sealed off the crack in the void of the sky.
The heavens have returned to peace.
But the angry roars of True Lord Qingxu before his death still echoed in their ears for a long time.
Especially those cultivators who had just questioned Xu Shan.
At that moment, he not only felt a burning pain in his face, but also looked at Xu Shan with the utmost reverence.
"Xu, Xu Zhenjun, you truly see through human nature."
"Are you really just of legal age?"
“It’s genuine.” Xu Shan replied with a smile upon hearing this.
Then, looking up at the newly risen sun, he said meaningfully, "In this world, the two things that are hardest to look directly at are the sun and the human heart."
After speaking, Xu Shan, who had been silent for a moment, quickly asked, "Xuan Tai, how is the repair going?"
"The repairs are proceeding according to plan."
"It is expected to be open in half an hour."
"Hurry up. I can't wait."
"Yes."
Just as he finished speaking, a cultivator rushed over.
"Xu, True Lord Xu."
"Sect Master Yun has returned, having driven back the disciples of the Tu Gen Sect who had self-destructed their souls."
"Oh? I'll go take a look."
'bass.'
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Shan's figure disappeared from everyone's sight.
The next second, it hovered in the clouds in front of the Tu Gen Sect disciples who had self-destructed their divine souls.
"Master Xu, it's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright."
"I tried to contact you by telepathy for a long time, but I couldn't reach you. That's when I knew something had happened in the Central Plains."
"After returning, I learned that Chunyangzi had come to the Heavenly Realm in person."
"I heard you even wiped them out?"
As soon as Yunxiao finished speaking, an elder beside him added, "It's not just True Lord Chunyang."
"Just now, True Lord Qingxu attempted to capture True Lord Xu's soul and cast a spell upon him."
"His original power was also devoured from a distance."
“Just minutes ago, he was forced to self-destruct by the gods of the Upper Nine Heavens who coveted his half-grade immortal body.”
"They have also completely perished."
"Now, in the entire Upper Nine Heavens, only the Lingxiao Pavilion remains as a force."
'Hiss.'
Upon hearing this, not only Yunxiao, but also the Tugen Sect cultivators who had come with him, couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
They were forced to 'self-destruct their souls, defying the will of Heaven.' Before, they still harbored some resentment and fear towards the will of Heaven.
But now, he heard that two of the three great gods of the Nine Heavens have died at the hands of Xu Shan.
Their gazes toward him were tinged with awe.
Furthermore, and more importantly, they had just heard that Xu Shan now had complete control over the laws of the Heavenly Realm.
After that, he became a true 'god' in the Heavenly Realm.
Thinking of this, the elders of the Tu Gen Sect exchanged glances. Then, they took the initiative to clasp their fists and kneel on one knee in front of Xu Shan, saying, "We are willing to self-destruct our divine souls and defy the Heavenly Dao."
"Offer my soul to Xu Zhenjun."
As he finished speaking, thousands of 'prisoners' behind him shouted in a very realistic manner: "We are willing to offer our souls as a sacrifice."
"I swear to follow in the footsteps of Xu Zhenjun, even unto death."
Xu Shan, who was stuck at the Great Perfection of the Nine Immortal Vehicles and lacked the power of faith, naturally accepted everything.
When he once again invoked the "Immortal Spirit Touches the Head, Soul Returns to its Origin" spell, the scene erupted in uproar once more.
You must understand, this is a 'miracle' that can only be created by mastering the immortal spirit to its extreme.
Gazing at the vortex suspended in the sky.
Without any hesitation, the disciples of the Tu Gen Sect offered up their 'soul bonds'.
When thousands of devout 'souls' gathered above Xushan.
His weakness—the power of faith—is also gradually approaching a critical point.
Especially after the third form of the [Heavenly Demon Divine Art] reached its peak and was promoted to the fourth form, the soul essence and faith power that had been previously collected were also sublimated.
Buzzing.
In that instant, the entire celestial realm shook and trembled as the immortal spirit of Mount Xu was revealed.
'Crackling and popping.'
'boom.'
Amidst the raging winds, lightning and thunder covered the entire sky.
"What, what happened?"
"A sudden change in the world?"
"This, this is..."
When someone asked this question in surprise, Yunxiao and the others replied with furrowed brows: "This is the Upper Nine Heavens. It was the Heavenly Punishment and Thunder Tribulation that was set up to restrict the cultivation level of the Heavenly Domain cultivators by using the Heavenly Dao."
"Now, along with Xu Zhenjun, we have broken through this boundary and descended into the Heavenly Realm."
"This is a profound mystery beyond the laws of the heavens."
"This is to prevent cultivators from bypassing the Heavenly Dao's scrutiny and advancing directly."
To put it bluntly...
“Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts.”
"They will not allow the existence of cultivators they cannot control."
After hearing this explanation, many cultivators worriedly asked, "Then, will True Monarch Xu be able to escape this heavenly punishment and lightning tribulation?"
"Can you dodge it?"
"Haha."
"In the entire Heavenly Realm, he, True Lord Xu, is the uncrowned king."
"You should know that even without his complete control over the laws of the heavens, he was able to resist the descent of gods."
"Not to mention now."
When Yunxiao confidently uttered these words, Xu Shan, who had been keeping his eyes tightly closed, suddenly opened them.
We faced the dark, cloud-covered sky, where lightning flashed and thunder roared.
He roared with overwhelming arrogance, "This Heavenly Domain..."
"It's no longer your place to interfere, even from the highest heavens."
"The tiger roars in the Gen Palace, thunderous howls."
"The rain is pouring down, and my talisman has arrived."
"Heaven and earth are cleansed, and thunderous drums resound."
"Swift retribution will be delivered, the five directions will unite in a grand ceremony, and the drums will beat loudly..."
“Imperial Edict”.
"break."
"open."
A rumbling sound.
As Xu Shan finished speaking, the churning thunderclouds were instantly dispersed.
The divine punishment that descended from the sky vanished in the blink of an eye.
The cracked sky was repaired by beams of golden light.
The long-awaited sunrise, mixed with the light of dawn, shone into the sky once more, first reflecting off Xu Shan's radiant and majestic figure.
Yunxiao and the others, watching this scene, wore excited smiles.
He kept repeating, "It's done, it really is done."
"Xu, True Lord Xu, has thus entered the [Creation Realm]."
"Sect Master Yun, look."
"All the radiant light gathered on Xu Zhenjun."
"This, this is..."
"Looking west from the Jade Pool, a thousand feet of light shines; purple clouds come from the east, a ten-thousand-mile wind blows."
"Immortal Blessing?"
"Quickly, all cultivators, sit down and meditate to welcome the light and wind."
"Master Xu, may your divine spirit shine upon all believers."
"This, this is our blessing."
"It is a blessing we have earned through our own efforts."
As Yunxiao roared, all the cultivators present sat down to meditate and devoutly contemplate.
Meanwhile, Master Xu, who was suspended in mid-air, shone the divine spirit of Yaochi upon all believers from afar.
