594: Chapter 594 King Zhan Becomes Emperor
The next moment, the roar of the Tyrant Body's remnant soul suddenly changed pitch, filled with unbelievable shock and panic.
A sharp scream echoed through the Sea of Consciousness: "How... how is this possible?! My Dao! My Overbearing Dao is dissolving!"
He could clearly feel his Overbearing Origin, which he had held onto for hundreds of thousands of years,
was being dismantled and dissolved bit by bit by that soft yet resilient azure saintly power.
The black flames he could originally control at will became sluggish, and the power he could mobilize was rapidly declining.
Every thread of tyrant power was being pulled by an invisible force, drawing closer to Wang Zhan's Divine Soul.
In contrast, Wang Zhan's originally illusory and weakened Divine Soul battle shadow was gradually solidifying during this process.
The azure light became increasingly brilliant, and his aura rose steadily, forming a stark contrast with the other's weakness.
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
The Tyrant Body remnant soul struggled frantically, the black flames fruitlessly crashing against the cocoon of azure saintly power, his voice full of terror and resentment.
"My Overbearing Dao is indestructible, how can it be dissolved by your saintly power? What exactly did you do?!"
Facing his rage and panic, Wang Zhan's voice was calm yet firm, echoing in the Sea of Consciousness without the slightest ripple:
"I did nothing; I am simply using my Dao to encompass your Dao and to carry your power."
His consciousness flowed gently, merging with the restless Tyrant Body remnant soul, clearly transmitting his Dao Heart:
"Power itself has no good or evil; the purity of the Sacred Body and the intensity of the Tyrant Body are but two forms among the Myriad Daos."
"My Dao is to encompass, to carry, to absorb the essence of the Myriad Daos, and ultimately achieve a path that transcends the self."
"Your Overbearing Dao is not destruction; it is also one of the Myriad Daos. Naturally, it can be encompassed and carried by my Dao, coexisting with me."
As he spoke, the azure saintly power became even softer yet more resilient, steadily supporting the continuously dissolving Tyrant Body Origin and slowly incorporating it into Wang Zhan's Divine Soul.
The Tyrant Body remnant soul's struggle grew weaker; the ferocity of the black flames gradually retracted its sharp edge under the encompassment and carriage, and even the bone-deep malice was subtly smoothed away.
Meanwhile, Wang Zhan's Divine Soul grew increasingly powerful through the process of fusing the Overbearing Origin, as the azure and black powers began to quietly intertwine and coexist within his body.
Finally, that remnant soul, which had drifted for hundreds of thousands of years, could no longer hold on and dissipated unwillingly, leaving only the pure Overbearing Origin to be steadily carried and accepted by Wang Zhan's Dao Heart.
As the Tyrant Body remnant soul completely dissipated, the aura around Wang Zhan's body underwent a sudden and dramatic change.
He closed his eyes and stilled his heart, allowing the azure and black Origins to fuse within him, feeling the transparency of his Dao Heart and the explosion of his power.
The Quasi-Emperor level pressure began to climb steadily, far exceeding the pure saintly power of the past; it was an unprecedented power.
It possessed both the Sacred Body's all-encompassing nature and the Tyrant Body's sharp slaughter, with resilience hidden within the encompassment and transformation contained within the carriage.
The essence of the Myriad Daos was quietly merging within this light cocoon, forging a unique Dao belonging to Wang Zhan.
The Laws of Heaven and Earth no longer roared, but instead began to slowly draw closer to this azure-black light cocoon, as if in recognition, as if in resonance.
All the pure spiritual energy of the Secret Realm poured into the light cocoon, helping Wang Zhan strike at the boundary belonging to a Great Emperor.
The Dao that belonged to him had only just begun; the transformation that belonged to him had already arrived.
The azure-black light cocoon grew increasingly brilliant, its light causing the entire Secret Realm to tremble, and the patterns on its surface continuously flowed and surged, nearly breaking through the shackles of the Secret Realm's sky.
Wang Zhan flashed out of the Secret Realm, his Quasi-Emperor pressure climbing to the extreme, the space around him compressed into distorted folds, and even the air was sizzling.
Amidst this extreme tension, the vast clear sky was swallowed by endless tribulation clouds.
Within the ink-black cloud layers, lightning moved like dragons and snakes, and a destructive aura that stood above all living beings crashed down!
This was no ordinary Emperor Tribulation.
This was the Chaos Dao Tribulation triggered by the Fusion of the Sacred and Tyrant bodies and the Heaven-Defying alteration of the Dao!
In the Xuanhuang Great World, the various Great Orthodoxies were shaken.
The Master of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion suddenly looked up, his pupils shrinking: "Chaos Tribulation Clouds?!"
"Someone is undergoing the legendary Chaos Dao Tribulation! Who is it?!"
In the Archaic Royal Family, the Family Head felt that familiar aura: "Hahaha, it's my son Wang Zhan! My son Wang Zhan is about to become a Great Emperor..."
At the Dao Zang Academy, Xing Tianao was startled awake. His Divine Sense swept toward the east, and his voice was hoarse:
"Sacred and Tyrant intertwined... is it that kid with the Heavenly Azure Sacred Body? He actually took this step..."
The Divine King Body Jiang Ruofeng stood atop a mountain peak, gazing at the azure-black intertwined phenomenon deep within the tribulation clouds. After a long silence, he finally let out a soft breath:
"Wang Zhan... you have, after all, stepped ahead of us."
Zizhu Peak.
Gu Changge stood by the cliff with his hands behind his back, calmly looking toward the east.
The gray egg in the stone pit seemed disturbed by the thunder; its shell moved slightly, and a faint wave of consciousness transmitted: "Noisy."
Gu Changge lowered his eyes to look at it.
"Be quiet."
gray egg: "..."
It silently buried itself a bit deeper into the glowing rays.
Old Huang poked his head out from the spiritual field, his bronze-bell-sized ox eyes blinking:
"Master, is that kid Wang Zhan undergoing a tribulation? This commotion is much more intense than when I became an emperor back then."
Ji Mie appeared nearby at some unknown point, his black robes moving without wind. He gazed at the azure-black intertwined Dao Rhyme deep within the tribulation clouds.
After a moment of silence, he said in a low voice: "Sacred and Tyrant fused, the Dao altered against heaven. This child's Dao is complete."
The Great Emperor Tribulation clouds hung from the firmament, their pressure as deep as an abyss. Within the azure-black light cocoon, Wang Zhan slowly opened his eyes.
At first, azure light flowed through his eyes as if containing ten thousand miles of starlight, embodying an all-encompassing state.
In an instant, ink-black flames settled deep in his eyes, revealing a sharp edge and carrying a peerless, slaughtering intent that looked down upon the world.
Azure and black intertwined and rotated in his eyes; saintly rhyme and tyrant might fused and coexisted without the slightest discord, leaving only his unique Dao, clear and resolute.
He slowly raised his head, looking up at the mass of Chaos Tribulation Clouds brewing to the extreme in the firmament.
The cloud layers churned like ink, with grey mist swirling between them, faintly carrying the vast aura from the dawn of creation.
There was no joy or sorrow on Wang Zhan's face; his expression was as indifferent as an eternal rock, with only a faint azure-black light quietly flowing at his fingertips.
Then, he slowly stood up, his figure tall and straight like a pine tree. His voice was not loud, yet it pierced through the heaven-filling tribulation might and echoed throughout the Secret Realm, causing the air currents between heaven and earth to tremble:
"Come!"
As that single word fell, the world lost its color!
"Boom—!!!"
Wherever it passed, space was annihilated inch by inch, and even time seemed to freeze!
The first bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning crashed down. It was by no means the purple-gold lightning of an ordinary Emperor Tribulation, but a greyish mass, carrying the destruction and vitality of the dawn of Chaos.
Wang Zhan did not dodge. He slowly raised his right hand, palm upward, as azure light and black flames intertwined and spiraled in his palm.
In an instant, it transformed into an azure-black vortex. As the vortex turned, it naturally possessed the state of the Myriad Daos returning to the source, both all-encompassing and overbearing.
"Buzz—"
The Chaos Divine Lightning, carrying the momentum to destroy heaven and earth, struck directly into that azure-black vortex.
There was no earth-shattering explosion as expected, no violent impact of power, only a low hum that echoed through heaven and earth.
That bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning, enough to shatter an ordinary newly ascended Great Emperor, was layered in warm azure light the moment it fell into the vortex, then finely decomposed by the sharp black flames.
The violent Chaos power was completely smoothed out, finally transforming into the purest Chaos Origin, which slowly flowed into his body through Wang Zhan's palm, nourishing his Sacred Body.
He was never just undergoing a tribulation; he was using the power of the tribulation to temper himself, polish his Dao Body, and perfect his unique Dao!
"He's crazy! This kid is actually using Chaos tribulation lightning for Body Refining?!"
"Going against the Dao! His Dao is actually so overbearing that he dares to contend with heaven, using the Heavenly Dao's tribulation power to perfect himself!"
Across the Xuanhuang World, countless spying Divine Senses suddenly trembled.
They had seen prodigies who resisted the Emperor Tribulation head-on and experts who used the tribulation to comprehend the Dao, but they had never seen someone undergo a tribulation like this.
Not resisting, not blocking, not evading—simply catching it calmly and then completely utilizing it. This was already debating the Dao with heaven, acting against fate!
The second, third, fourth...
The Chaos Divine Lightning bolts arrived one after another, each more ferocious and terrifying than the last, the grey lightning growing ever more intense.
His aura also became increasingly solid and vast under the tempering of each lightning bolt, and the shackles of a Quasi-Emperor were completely shattered.
The Great Emperor's might quietly brewed and climbed within his body, like a dormant volcano about to erupt.
When the ninth and final bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning struck, the entire world had already turned into a sea of Chaos lightning. The world-destroying aura swept through all things, causing heaven and earth to tremble under the pressure.
This bolt of tribulation lightning was several times more ferocious than the previous eight combined, carrying the Heavenly Dao's most extreme punitive power and the momentum of world destruction as it crashed toward Wang Zhan!
Wang Zhan resisted with all his might, yet he was still shaken by the residual might of the tribulation lightning, a sweet taste rising in his throat.
Blood surged out, his Dao Body was damaged, and his sacred runes dimmed, but the determination in his eyes remained. He gritted his teeth and steadied his mind, not retreating in the slightest.
Once the ninth bolt of Lightning Tribulation completely dissipated, a brilliant beam of Imperial Dao divine light suddenly soared into the sky, piercing the clouds and reflecting upon the stars of the heavens.
Emperor Might surged like a vast sea, sweeping through the eight desolations and six directions, intimidating the entire Xuanhuang World!
Great Emperor Realm, broken through!
