The third day in the Saint Realm.
It took over a day, but Lin Qianxuan recorded one hundred and fourteen Great Paths from Jiang Mengli.
At this moment, there is still an hour left until their protection from Lu Tao ends.
Lin Qianxuan finished recording the Great Dao Rules in advance.
It was enough.
These hundred-plus Great Paths couldn't possibly be fully imprinted through the Celestial Tribulation.
In fact, he'd be grateful if even one-fifth could be imprinted.
Under the Grand Tree, Lin Qianxuan had already equipped the Dragon Scale Immortal Armor and Dragon Horn Spear. Jiang Mengli looked at him like a wife sending her husband off to war, reluctant and unwilling to part.
"Silly brother, you must..."
Jiang Mengli's words were cut off by Lin Qianxuan with a kiss.
After a while, they separated.
"If you don't come back, I will go with you!" Jiang Mengli said with a smile.
Her words were gentle yet firm, as if she was talking about a casual outing, not life and death.
"You still said that..." Lin Qianxuan remarked somewhat helplessly, "At this point, don't jinx it!"
"I just thought it suited the occasion a bit," Jiang Mengli laughed, "This kind of line, you probably won't get to say it many times in a lifetime."
"Once is enough for me," Lin Qianxuan sighed.
Jiang Mengli wanted to say that with Lin Qianxuan's situation, it wouldn't be just this once, but she didn't let the words leave her lips.
"You don't need to say it for me to understand."
A glint of gold flickered deep in Lin Qianxuan's eyes. That was the downside to his usual [Spiritual Enlightenment]; he couldn't yet restrain it, constantly absorbing and processing an immense amount of information.
Luckily, it hadn't exceeded his brain's processing limit, otherwise, it would indeed be a headache.
"Then what should I say?" Jiang Mengli pouted.
"Say farewell!" Lin Qianxuan replied.
"Silly brother, farewell."
"Jiang sister, farewell."
With a look, Lin Qianxuan turned, no longer hesitating, and his figure turned into escape light, rushing towards the outside of the Saint Realm.
After Lin Qianxuan left, Lu Tao appeared beside Jiang Mengli, also looking in the direction of Lin Qianxuan's departure.
"Senior, do you think he can succeed?" Jiang Mengli asked.
Though Lin Qianxuan had always created miracles, this calamity seemed too vast, making her lack confidence in him.
"Of course he can," Lu Tao replied.
She was much more certain than Jiang Mengli.
No one understood the power of the Dao Fruit better than her.
With just one blessing, she was already immortal and transcendental.
Lin Qianxuan, as the possessor of the Dao Fruit, even if he lost for a moment, was destined to find victory among endless possibilities.
This calamity, overwhelming for Jiang Mengli, would be a mere commemorable event for him, bringing a faint smile when recalled.
....
Now at the edge of the Saint Realm, Lin Qianxuan felt as though he penetrated a barrier, leaving the boundaries of the Saint Realm quickly.
Upon exiting, the biggest change was the sudden thinness of the surrounding Spiritual Energy, incomparably sparse compared to before, and the Heaven and Earth Rules shifted from an active and harmonious state to one of deathly stillness, as if unwilling to budge under any circumstance.
Comprehending those rules outside was vastly different from doing so inside the Saint Realm.
Lin Qianxuan felt like a fish out of water.
The moment he appeared outside, countless True Immortal thoughts locked onto him.
Yet Lin Qianxuan wasn't afraid.
These Immortal Monarchs were after Jiang Mengli. Though his Dragon Bloodline might interest them, it wasn't enough for serious attention.
The next moment, his True Thought extended, resonating with the world.
"Hmm? He came out!"
"He is Mingguang's protector."
"There's still some time left for the third day. Did he plan to separate from Mingguang prematurely?"
"Why not capture him to coerce Mingguang?"
"Is it necessary? Let's not stir up trouble. He has a Sacred Beast bloodline, alarming Lu Tao could cause unwanted chaos!"
"Tribulating? Wasn't he just at the True Thought realm before? His cultivation certainly rose swiftly."
Lin Qianxuan's Dragon Bloodline made these True Immortals somewhat wary, so they didn't take action.
Instead, they watched as he resonated with the world, invoking the Thunder Tribulation.
The might of heaven suddenly descended, and Lin Qianxuan felt himself enveloped by an incomprehensible great consciousness.
Emotionless, desireless, formless, always present!
This was the Heavenly Dao, a natural operational rule of the heavens and earth.
The intelligent entity formed by over ninety thousand Great Paths in this world.
Lin Qianxuan triggered its rule at that moment.
The next moment, thunderclouds quickly gathered above the Nine Heavens.
"Boom~!"
After a brief brewing, a bolt of tribulation lightning descended from the sky.
The speed of this tribulation lightning pierced through time and space, leaving Lin Qianxuan unable to evade, striking him in an instant, causing real damage.
Lightning arcs flickered around him, and his body was quickly torn and destroyed. The obliterating power of thunder left marks in space-time and in his information, imprinting Lin Qianxuan's own Great Dao Rules into it.
The damage from this lightning was considerable, but for Lin Qianxuan, it was well within his endurance range.
Compared to the catastrophe suffered in his game when enduring tribulation lightning, he fared much better now.
Clearly, it was the blessing of the third Sound Talisman.
Lin Qianxuan activated his Divine Power, swiftly self-healing his wounds. With the blessing of the Sound of Destiny, he returned to normal in no time.
"Boom~!"
The second tribulation lightning descended, and the Dao Patterns in the void around Lin Qianxuan flickered. [Evolutionary Body] evolved another new superpower, specifically to resist the Celestial Tribulation, further reducing the damage caused by lightning.
"Boom~!"
The third tribulation lightning descended.
Lin Qianxuan's body only suffered minor damage and quickly repaired under the operation of divine power.
Heavenly thunder surged around him, swiftly engraving divine patterns of the Great Dao.
"In that case, how about another bolt of tribulation lightning?"
Lin Qianxuan looked up at the sky, deep in thought.
It seemed there was no rule that said one must withstand tribulation one bolt at a time.
The aura of the Great Dao surged from him, once again connecting with the Heavenly Dao.
In the next instant, the thundercloud thickened by three parts, as black as iron, and the layers upon layers of the thundercloud at the center were incredibly terrifying.
The Immortal Monarchs in the sky were equally astonished.
"A double-layered thunder tribulation? Such talent!"
"No wonder, it's the Saint Beast lineage!"
"If we could take him back to the mountain as a Mountain Guardian Immortal Beast and constantly extract his blood and marrow, we could surely refine numerous precious Immortal Pills."
Before the voices of the Immortal Monarchs faded, the thunderclouds grew denser several more layers.
"Triple layers? Does he want to die?"
"Wait, it's still increasing!!"
"It's already five layers!!"
The Immortal Monarchs were dumbfounded, their faces full of disbelief.
Comprehending so many Great Daos was already difficult enough, yet he intended to undergo a five-layer celestial tribulation all at once. What was he planning?
....
At this moment, the thunderclouds rolled pitch black, under the oppressive power of heaven, purple thunder covered more than millions of miles around.
Seeing such a thunder tribulation, Lin Qianxuan felt a slight sense of crisis in his heart.
He couldn't add any more, or he wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"Boom boom boom boom~!"
In an instant, a streak of thunder, purple tinged with blood red, descended.
The power of the five-layer thunder tribulation combined, terrifying beyond imagination even for the Immortal Monarchs.
The primary concern was that the thunder tribulation inflicted real damage, which ordinary cultivators could barely withstand.
As this bolt of tribulation lightning came down on him, the Power of Destiny Chord blessed on Lin Qianxuan first weakened it by half, followed by the superpower of the Evolutionary Body weakening it further, leaving only the final portion of damage that he had to endure.
Lin Qianxuan's figure transformed into a true dragon form of several thousand feet, covered in scale armor marked with Dao patterns, with True Flame flowing between them, continuously reinforcing his own defenses.
Yet even so, his figure was instantly obliterated into nothingness under the thunder tribulation, leaving only a small fragment of remains, a mere hundred-meter-long dragon finger.
In the next instant, True Flame surged on this dragon finger, and his body rapidly reconstructed. In a split second, he was reborn with a complete body, stronger and more resilient.
Dancing on the brink of near-death, his Evolutionary Body directly evolved into a superpower comparable to nearing the Great Dao level.
"Boom~!"
Another bolt of thunder descended, purple tinged with red, but this time it only shattered Lin Qianxuan's body, unable to obliterate him to just half a finger.
Then, suddenly, the thunderclouds added another layer.
Finally, an Immortal Monarch realized something was wrong.
"It's a six-layer thunder tribulation now? What on earth is he doing!"
"Could it be the effect of [Hidden Heaven Divine Jade]? After all, it's a divine artifact of the Heavenly Dao, so it's not impossible!"
"This is bad, we can't let him keep passing the tribulation like this! Otherwise, when he becomes immortal, we might not be able to contend with him even if we join forces!"
Upon hearing this, the Immortal Monarchs could no longer sit still.
In the next moment, a Thick Earth Seal, mountain-like, came pressing down on Lin Qianxuan as he was still healing.
Lin Qianxuan looked at the Great Seal, his eyes flashing with golden light, manifesting the marks of destiny. In an instant, he analyzed the many rules and information of the opponent's Great Seal and simultaneously predicted the countermeasures.
"Roar~!"
Surging torrents of water flowed, Lin Qianxuan's dragon body swept along infinite water waves, deploying divine power of the Great Dao, crashing against the Great Seal, easily blocking it.
"Buzz~!"
The artifact spirit on the Thick Earth Seal was activated, along with the exertion of force by a True Immortal behind it, making its power even more formidable.
Lin Qianxuan was pressed so hard that his whole body threatened to crack inch by inch, his figure constantly falling from the sky.
At the same time, a new celestial tribulation also descended.
"Boom~!"
The deadly impact of the celestial tribulation was even faster than the power of the Immortal Monarch before him.
In an instant, Lin Qianxuan's body shattered everywhere, obliterating and continuously disintegrating in the nearly blood-red thunder.
But he did not die.
A dragon scale attached beneath the Great Seal was protected by Dragon Scale Immortal Armor, avoiding the attack of the Great Seal. At this moment, True Flame surged on it, and Lin Qianxuan's body was reformed once again.
A terrifying vitality and infinite energy forged a nearly indestructible body!
Suddenly, that Thick Earth Seal paused its downward force, and Lin Qianxuan, in demi-dragon form, held up this mammoth seal with one hand.
Vitality surged around him, the aura of the Great Dao indiscriminately revealed.
At this very moment, although he didn't possess a complete rule of the Great Dao on his body, combined, his mass had already far exceeded that of an ordinary True Immortal.
In a certain sense, he had achieved an alternate immortality.
Time and space undamaged, eternally imperishable!
The six-layer heavenly thunder, while it's incredibly destructive, also engraves the rules of the Great Dao at a faster pace.
"So that's how it is....."
Lin Qianxuan sensed the level of the Dao Realm, comprehending the essential difference of this realm.
Imprinting one's own information into the long river of time and space, thus not being eroded by time and space, able to live as long as heaven.
Meanwhile, the Power of the Great Dao mirrored time and space, thus all that below the realm of the Great Dao would be eroded by the infinite power of time and space under this force.
The power of the True Immortal was already interfering with time and space.
That's why it appeared so efficient.
