116: The pulse of the imperial city, the first return to the void.

"Is he insane?"

"Does he want to withstand all the remaining lightning at once?"

Everyone was horrified.

"No... he intends to shatter this Heavenly Tribulation!"

A Celestial Lord from the Alien Race spoke with a trembling voice.

!!!

Everyone's horror intensified.

Shatter the Heavenly Tribulation?

What a terrifying notion is this?

This is him provoking the Heavenly Dao!

Thunder rumbled.

The Lightning Tribulation seemed to sense Qin Tian's intention, suddenly shooting out endless rays of thunderous light as the thunderclouds continuously converged.

The remaining three phantom figures also merged into one.

Instantly,

An incredibly thick, seven-colored Heavenly Thunder condensed!

The terrifying might of that thunder was enough to make one's courage fail.

Beneath the thunderous radiance, the Ten Great Prodigies of the Foreign Realm trembled uncontrollably, not daring to look directly.

These prodigies, once awe-inspiring and fearless in the Eternal Foreign Realm,

At this moment, resembled newly-hatched chicks, shrinking their bodies, offering no resistance.

Qin Tian's eyes blazed like torches; mysterious and profound scriptures on the seven emotions seed blossomed with dazzling brilliance.

The Immortal Qi surrounding his body emitted a terrifying, extreme power.

It made everyone feel suffocated.

"A mere Heavenly Tribulation!"

"What do I, Qin Tian, have to fear!"

A rumbling sound echoed across the wilderness.

Qin Tian threw a punch towards that thick, seven-colored Heavenly Thunder.

Instantly, white light blazed, illuminating the entire Heavenly Abyss!

Everyone's Divine Thoughts were blocked, no one could probe whether Qin Tian was alive or dead.

At the same time,

Deep within the Imperial City, several great figures opened their eyes.

"The Imperial City's pulse..."

"This child has awakened it..."

At this moment, the entire Imperial City seemed to resonate with that white light.

Emitting a hum with the same rhythm.

In a hazy state,

Qin Tian slowly opened his eyes, not feeling any residual thunderous might.

What lay before him was no longer the Heavenly Abyss.

But a hall suffused with immortal light.

"Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals."

"How did I get here?"

Suddenly, Qin Tian looked into the distance.

Beams of immortal light converged from all directions.

"Longevity Being?"

Qin Tian was stunned.

"Didn't all the Longevity Being of the Immortal Ancient era die in battle?"

He wanted to move but found himself completely unable to.

"Could this be... a phantom scene from the past?"

Qin Tian was astonished.

What was even more astonishing was,

Those Longevity Being, one after another, actually sat encircling him as the center.

"What in the world is happening?"

Before his confusion could fade,

A full ten thousand or more Longevity Being had already assembled.

What an utterly terrifying force this was!

Over ten thousand Longevity Being likely represented the entire foundation of Immortal Ancient.

"The Great Dao is three thousand, infinite and boundless..."

Suddenly,

Qin Tian involuntarily made a sound.

It was drawn-out and lingering, lasting for a long time.

"Am I speaking?" Qin Tian was taken aback.

"No, it's the body I'm inhabiting that's speaking!"

Qin Tian suddenly realized.

Listening to the content,

Qin Tian was even more greatly shocked.

"This is... preaching the Dao to the Longevity Being!"

The body he currently inhabited was even more powerful than the Longevity Being!

However,

He was clearly Undergoing Tribulation, so why had he suddenly arrived here?

Before he could figure it out,

The sound of the Dao flowed.

With his current cultivation level, Qin Tian found it difficult to comprehend the Dao contained within.

"Although I don't know why I came here,"

"The Dao methods that even Longevity Being must listen to are absolutely a supreme Opportunity!"

Qin Tian hesitated no longer, committing every word and sentence to memory.

Simultaneously,

The seven emotions seed underwent a world-shaking change.

Tender leaves sprouted, one after another.

Upon them, profound scriptures were imprinted.

Exactly identical to the content of the current Dao preaching.

The first leaf, the second leaf... until the seventh tender leaf was completely covered in scriptures.

Only then did everything come to a halt.

Qin Tian murmured,

"Is this an imprint contained within the seven emotions seed?"

"Could it be that this Dao preacher is the creator of the seven emotions seed?"

Qin Tian gained a deep understanding.

The seven scriptures he had previously comprehended, including 'All Things Live,' were now completely fused and mastered.

They originated from the same source—

"The Scripture of Three Thousand Great Daos."

This was precisely the Dao scripture that even Longevity Being sought in vain!

It was the most fundamental true meaning of the Great Dao.

At this moment, it was entirely engraved upon the seven emotions seed.

Qin Tian could not yet comprehend it.

Only when he became a Longevity Being would he be able to glimpse a fraction of its profundity.

"Longevity..."

Qin Tian muttered to himself.

The phantom scene dispersed.

At the Abyssal Prison, the white light simultaneously dissipated.

Qin Tian, surrounded by seven-colored Immortal Qi, stood tall in the sky.

And that Lightning Tribulation had long since vanished without a trace.

"Se... seven strands of Immortal Qi..."

"How is this possible?"

The Foreign Realm Beings looked shocked, completely dumbfounded.

The people of Immortal Ancient were extremely excited!

"Excellent!"

"Unprecedented in Immortal Ancient!"

"Qin Tian can be called the First Return to Ruins, Past and Present!"

Qin Tian's gaze swept over the Ten Great Prodigies.

They had already been blasted to the brink of death by the terrifying thunder.

Qin Tian raised his hand.

In the space of a breath.

The Ten Great Prodigies, their Divine Souls extinguished... Everyone was horrified into silence.

The heavenly mystery plate dimmed.

The realm fortune of the Eternal Foreign Realm continuously flowed into the great dao petal.

This battle was a complete victory for Immortal Ancient!

Suddenly.

The heavens and earth changed color.

An Alien Race Emperor, without any warning, used boundless power, seeking to annihilate Qin Tian.

"Hmph!"

"Daring to strike before my very eyes!"

"You have some nerve!"

Qin Longevity had arrived before Qin Tian at some unknown time.

He stored him away within a Small World.

"Qin Longevity!"

"He's just a junior!"

"He has no time left to grow!"

"Immortal Ancient will ultimately be destroyed!"

Having failed with one strike, the Alien Race Emperor spoke coldly.

With a wave of his large hand, all the Foreign Realm Beings disappeared.

Qin Longevity frowned deeply.

Similarly, he led the people of Immortal Ancient back to the Imperial City.

As for Qin Tian,

Without seeing anyone, he was directly taken by Qin Longevity to the deepest part of the Imperial City.

The ancestral land belonging solely to the Qin Family.

Dharma bodies manifested one after another.

They were the figures of great personages.

"Old Ancestor, where is this?"

"The Qin Family ancestral land."

"They are the few remaining Old Ancestors of the Qin Family." Qin Longevity spoke slowly.

"In the past, ten Qin Family Longevity Being died in battle at the Heavenly Abyss. Today, we, as their descendants, will also sacrifice ourselves for Immortal Ancient."

Qin Tian paused.

He heard immense heaviness in Qin Longevity's words.

Suddenly.

Pairs of gazes turned towards him.

Carrying admiration, gratification, satisfaction... and other complex emotions.

Yet, not a single word was spoken.

After a brief moment of their gazes resting on him,

Eight of the figures dissipated, transforming into streams of light that shot towards the depths of the Heavenly Abyss... "Where have the Old Ancestors gone?" An ominous premonition arose in Qin Tian's heart.

Qin Longevity sighed and uttered four words, "The Heavenly Abyss is about to break."

!!!

Qin Tian was jolted.

He knew the meaning behind Qin Longevity's words.

It meant that the Eternal Ones of the Foreign Realm would descend upon Immortal Ancient!

When that time comes,

Everything will turn to dust... "The Foreign Realm wants the realm fortune power of Immortal Ancient precisely to break the Heavenly Abyss's restrictions and send Eternal Ones over."

"Today, they failed to seize the realm fortune, buying us a sliver of respite."

"However, we cannot delay for too long..."

"We will inevitably have to face the Eternal Ones directly..."

"The Old Ancestors, resolved to die, have gone deep into the Heavenly Abyss, seeking only to buy you the time you lack the most..."

Qin Tian fell into silence.

"We cannot hold out for long."

"We need you. Immortal Ancient needs you."

"You must grow in the shortest possible time."

Qin Tian took a deep breath. "What should I do?"

Qin Longevity slowly spoke, "Go to the Xue Clan."

"There lies an Opportunity that can make you stronger."

"As for how far you can go, that depends on the will of heaven..."
