570: The Heavenly Tribulation Descends, the Two Saints Unite

Above the Myriad Worlds Ultimate Silence Core, the tribulation clouds had already condensed into substance. The ink-black cloud layers were like a surging, angry sea, with lightning snakes dancing wildly and thunder rumbling. Nine tribulation lightning bolts, containing the Origin Laws of the Seven Realms, slowly took shape within the clouds. Each was as thick as a pillar supporting the heavens, emitting a world-destroying pressure that caused space itself to twist and warp inch by inch.

This was the Origin Tribulation Lightning, the core power of the Tribulation Crossing Divine Tribulation, far more tyrannical than a full-strength strike from a Mahayana Stage Cultivator.

Lu Shaoyou stood in the center of the Undergoing Tribulation Platform, the pale gray Neutralization Power swirling frantically around him. Behind him, the Myriad Laws Divine Manifestation shone brilliantly, and the great vehicle divine ring rotated slowly, continuously drawing the power of belief from the Myriad Realms Undergoing Tribulation Formation into his body. He looked up at the tribulation lightning in the sky, his eyes devoid of fear, filled only with blazing Battle Intent.

"Tribulation Crossing Divine Tribulation, today, I shall overcome you!"

Lu Shaoyou let out a long cry, operating the General Explanation of the Essentials of Undergoing Tribulation and pushing the Neutralizing Mahayana Art to its limit. On his Body Integration True Body, black and white light intertwined and wound around each other. Runes of the Holy Spirit and ultimate silence flashed frantically, forming an indestructible Protective Spiritual Light.

"Boom!"

The first Origin Tribulation Lightning fell first. The golden lightning light roared like a Dragon, carrying the momentum to destroy everything as it struck down fiercely toward Lu Shaoyou.

"Holy Spirit as the Shield!"

Lu Shaoyou gave a low shout, and a ten-thousand-foot golden light erupted from the Myriad Laws Divine Manifestation. Holy Spirit Power transformed into a massive shield, blocking his front.

The tribulation lightning crashed into the shield, and a violent energy shockwave swept in all directions. The golden light on the shield flickered intensely, actually managing to withstand the first bolt of tribulation lightning. The Origin Laws within the lightning were slowly decomposed by the Neutralization Power, turning into pure energy that merged into Lu Shaoyou's body.

Following that, the second, third... sixth tribulation lightning bolts fell one after another. Each bolt was more tyrannical than the last. Using the Neutralizing Mahayana Art as his foundation and the power of belief of the Myriad Realms Undergoing Tribulation Formation as support, Lu Shaoyou forcibly blocked all six tribulation lightning bolts. Within his body, the Origin Power surged even more, and the barrier of the ninth level of Mahayana showed signs of loosening.

"Such powerful strength! Brother Lu can actually withstand six Origin Tribulation Lightning bolts!" Outside the Undergoing Tribulation Formation, Xuan Feng gripped the myriad realms origin sword, his eyes filled with shock.

Zhao Yanran's beautiful face was full of solemnity. She could clearly feel that the tribulation clouds in the sky were becoming increasingly dense. "Not good! The remaining three tribulation lightning bolts have actually fused the power of the first six, their power skyrocketing several times over!"

Before she could finish, the tribulation clouds in the sky suddenly exploded. Three Origin Tribulation Lightning bolts, several times thicker than before, were like three golden Dragons. Carrying the momentum to destroy heaven and earth, they struck down toward Lu Shaoyou simultaneously.

These three tribulation lightning bolts had already exceeded the limits of the Mahayana Stage, containing the Origin Laws of the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Even ordinary Tribulation Crossing Stage Cultivators would find them difficult to resist.

"Boom!"

The three tribulation lightning bolts struck the Protective Spiritual Light simultaneously, and violent energy erupted instantly. Lu Shaoyou's Protective Spiritual Light shattered like paper. His Body Integration True Body was knocked back repeatedly, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood. Even the Myriad Realms Divine Robe on his body was torn with several cracks.

"Brother Lu!" Everyone's expressions changed drastically. They wanted to break through the Formation to support him but were pushed back by the aftershocks of the lightning, unable to get close.

Lu Shaoyou's figure wavered, his Meridians were breaking inch by inch, and the great vehicle divine ring began to grow unstable. He could clearly feel his body being frantically eroded by the Origin Laws of the tribulation lightning, and his consciousness began to blur.

"Could it be... that I am to fall today under this Tribulation Crossing Divine Tribulation?" A trace of despair flashed through Lu Shaoyou's heart.

Just then, the General Outline of Tribulation Crossing in the center of the Undergoing Tribulation Platform suddenly erupted with ten thousand feet of light. Two phantoms slowly emerged from the manual.

One phantom wore holy spirit battle armor and held a holy spirit spear, with Holy Spirit Power surging around him; it was transformed from the remnant will of Lu Chen. The other phantom wore a black robe and held an Ultimate Silence Scepter, with Ultimate Silence Power churning incessantly; it was actually the remnant will of the Lord of Ultimate Silence!

"The Tribulation of Origin cannot be blocked by one person alone! Today, we shall lend you a hand!" Lu Chen's phantom spoke, his voice carrying a majesty that spanned through the ages.

The phantom of the Lord of Ultimate Silence nodded slightly without speaking, but pushed his own ultimate silence Origin Power to its limit.

"Holy Spirit as the guide, ultimate silence as the foundation, the Convergence of the Two Saints to resist the Heavenly Tribulation together!"

The two phantoms cried out in unison. Lu Chen's Holy Spirit Power turned into a golden beam of light, injecting into Lu Shaoyou's body. The Lord of Ultimate Silence's Ultimate Silence Power turned into a black beam of light, also injecting into his body.

The extreme of life from the Holy Spirit and the extreme of silence from the ultimate silence perfectly fused within his body. The originally broken Meridians were instantly repaired, the light of the great vehicle divine ring grew even more brilliant, and on his Body Integration True Body, black and white light intertwined, emitting a tyrannical pressure far exceeding the Mahayana Stage.

"Convergence of the Two Saints!"

Lu Shaoyou let out a long cry, operating the General Explanation of the Essentials of Undergoing Tribulation to perfectly fuse the Origin Power of the two saints with his own Neutralization Power. He suddenly raised both hands, and a beam of black and white light shot into the sky, crashing into the three Origin Tribulation Lightning bolts.

"Boom!"

An earth-shaking roar resounded through heaven and earth. Under the impact of the light beam, the three Origin Tribulation Lightning bolts actually shattered instantly. The Origin Laws within the lightning were completely decomposed by the power of the Convergence of the Two Saints, turning into pure energy that flooded into Lu Shaoyou's body like a tide.

The barrier of the ninth level of Mahayana shattered instantly under the impact of this energy. A tyrannical and peerless Tribulation Crossing Stage pressure erupted from his body.

On the Body Integration True Body, the black and white light slowly faded, replaced by a warm, jade-like purple-gold light. On the Myriad Laws Divine Manifestation behind him, the ancient character on the forehead and the power of the two saints' phantoms fused together, forming a purple-gold seal—the Dual Saints Tribulation Crossing Seal!

This seal was proof of Breakthrough to the Tribulation Crossing Stage and the key to opening the Ascension Realm!

At the moment of the Breakthrough, a crisp sound rang out on the Undergoing Tribulation Platform—

"Clatter!"

A purple-gold Jade Slip fell from the Dual Saints Tribulation Crossing Seal and rolled to Lu Shaoyou's feet. On the Jade Slip were carved the seven characters "Two Saints Convergence Undergoing Tribulation Technique." Inside, it detailed how to use the power of the two saints to pass the Heavenly Tribulation and how to integrate the Legacy of the two saints into one's own Cultivation Technique.

"Tribulation Crossing Stage! I have finally broken through to the Tribulation Crossing Stage!"

Lu Shaoyou slowly opened his eyes, a purple-gold light flashing within them. He could clearly feel that his strength had skyrocketed more than a hundredfold. With every movement, he could trigger the Undergoing Tribulation Origin Power of heaven and earth.

The phantoms of the two saints looked at the post-Breakthrough Lu Shaoyou with a hint of gratification in their eyes. Their figures slowly dissipated, turning into two streaks of light that merged into the Dual Saints Tribulation Crossing Seal.

"Thank you, two seniors!" Lu Shaoyou bowed respectfully toward the direction where the phantoms of the two saints had vanished.

Outside the Undergoing Tribulation Formation, everyone was overjoyed. They could clearly feel that the pressure on Lu Shaoyou had already reached the legendary Tribulation Crossing Stage.

"Great! Brother Lu has broken through to the Tribulation Crossing Stage!" Xuan Feng laughed loudly, his sword-like eyebrows raised.

Zhao Yanran's beautiful face was full of relief. She looked at the tribulation clouds slowly dispersing in the sky, a hint of anticipation flashing in her eyes. "The Dual Saints Tribulation Crossing Seal is complete; the gate to the Ascension Realm should also be opening."

Lu Shaoyou gripped the Two Saints Convergence Undergoing Tribulation Technique Jade Slip and looked up at the sky. Where the tribulation clouds were dissipating, a pale golden crack was slowly widening. From the crack came a pure aura far exceeding Mahayana Spiritual Qi—it was the Ascension Spiritual Qi of the Ascension Realm!

"Ascension Realm..." Lu Shaoyou murmured to himself, a hint of heat flashing in his eyes.

He knew that breaking through to the Tribulation Crossing Stage was not the end, but a new beginning. Within the Ascension Realm lay even more profound Legacies and the ultimate secret of the Fusion between the Seven Realms and the Ascension Realm.

A pale golden Realm Gate slowly took shape in the sky.

A new journey concerning the Ascension Realm was about to begin.
