108: Chapter 108 Breakthrough to Immortal King!

Immortal Domain.

This was a world completely different from the mortal Realm.

The moment Willow Deity tore through the Void Realm and stepped into the Immortal Domain with Chu Tianjiao and Xiao Nannan, both of them were stunned.

The Laws of this world were so complete that it made one tremble.

Every wisp of air was permeated with Spiritual Qi so dense it was almost impossible to dissipate.

That Spiritual Qi was different from the Spiritual Qi of the mortal Realm—it was purer, more vast, as if every breath was absorbing the Origin of the Dao.

And what shocked the two even more was the world itself.

Looking up, there were no stars in the sky, only a brilliant expanse of immortal light.

That immortal light was eternal and undying, illuminating this endless land.

In the distance, mountains stood majestic, each one towering into the clouds, with faint Dao patterns flowing across their surfaces.

Further away, waterfalls poured down from the Nine Heavens; the water in those waterfalls was not ordinary water, but was condensed from pure Spiritual Qi, and the spray that splashed when it fell into deep pools turned into specks of immortal light and dissipated.

"This is... the Immortal Domain."

Chu Tianjiao murmured, his eyes filled with shock.

He had read records about the Immortal Domain in ancient books, but those written descriptions were not even a fraction of what he saw with his own eyes.

Xiao Nannan stood beside him, equally stunned by everything before her, unable to speak.

She had lived for over five hundred thousand years and had seen countless wonders, but the Immortal Domain before her exceeded all her imagination.

Willow Deity stood in front of the two, quietly watching their reactions.

A faint smile played on her lips; she did not urge them, just waited quietly.

After a long time, Chu Tianjiao finally regained his composure.

He took a deep breath, turned to look at Willow Deity, and bowed solemnly.

"Many thanks, Senior Willow Deity."

Xiao Nannan also followed suit and bowed.

Willow Deity waved her hand.

"No need for such formalities. Although this place is vast, it is not a peaceful land. Within the Immortal Domain, there are many factions and countless experts. With your current strength, it is not enough to act without restraint."

She paused, her gaze sweeping across the surroundings.

"Follow me. We will first find a remote place for you to go into seclusion."

Chu Tianjiao and Xiao Nannan exchanged a glance and nodded at the same time.

The three turned into three streams of light and sped towards the depths of the Immortal Domain.

Willow Deity took the two across countless mountains and rivers, finally stopping deep within a barren mountain range.

This place was far from the core area of the Immortal Domain; there were no factions or living beings around, only rolling mountains and clouds that never dissipated throughout the year.

But the Spiritual Qi here was just as astonishingly dense.

"This will do," Willow Deity landed on the highest mountain Peak and looked around. "This place is remote and no one will disturb you. You can go into seclusion with peace of mind."

Chu Tianjiao nodded and scanned the surroundings with his Divine Thought.

He could feel that the Laws of this world were indeed complete, countless times stronger than those of the mortal Realm.

Cultivating here, the speed was at least a hundred times faster than in the mortal Realm.

"How long?" He asked.

Willow Deity glanced at him.

"I do not know. Cultivation varies from person to person. Perhaps tens of thousands of years, perhaps hundreds of thousands of years. You must be prepared."

Chu Tianjiao was silent for a moment, then looked at Xiao Nannan.

Xiao Nannan held his hand, her eyes full of determination.

"Wherever Teacher goes, I go."

Chu Tianjiao smiled.

"Good."

The two found a flat spot on the mountain Peak and sat down cross-legged.

Willow Deity stood not far away, watching them.

She raised her hand and waved it gently; countless emerald willow branches flew from her fingertips and landed around the mountain Peak.

Those willow branches took root in the Void Realm and intertwined into a massive array, enveloping the entire mountain Peak.

"This is a protective array," she said. "You may go into seclusion in peace; I will guard from the outside."

Chu Tianjiao nodded and closed his eyes.

Xiao Nannan also closed her eyes.

The two quickly entered a deep state of cultivation.

Willow Deity stood outside the array, quietly watching them.

Her gaze lingered on the two for a moment, then she withdrew it and looked towards the depths of the Immortal Domain.

...

Soon, ten thousand years passed.

To Willow Deity, ten thousand years was nothing more than a flick of a finger.

Seeing that Chu Tianjiao and Xiao Nannan were still in seclusion, Willow Deity said nothing and continued to guard them during their Breakthrough.

This was her promise.

Time flowed like water, seas changed into mulberry fields.

There was no alternation of day and night in the Immortal Domain, only eternal immortal light.

But in that eternal light, time still passed silently.

One hundred thousand years.

Two hundred thousand years.

Three hundred thousand years.

The mountain Peak covered by the willow branch array remained as silent as before.

Chu Tianjiao sat cross-legged on the mountain top, the aura around him becoming increasingly profound.

His True Immortal Origin was constantly refining and sublimating, from the True Immortal Middle Stage to the True Immortal Late Stage, and then to the True Immortal Peak.

Every step he took was incredibly solid, and every step was a natural success.

Xiao Nannan sat cross-legged not far from him, with Dao Laws flowing around her.

Her cultivation was also steadily climbing, from the True Immortal Early Stage to the True Immortal Middle Stage, and then to the True Immortal Late Stage.

The path she walked was different from Chu Tianjiao's, yet it was equally solid and equally profound.

Willow Deity remained guarding outside the array.

Four hundred thousand years.

Five hundred thousand years.

Six hundred thousand years.

One day, Chu Tianjiao's aura suddenly underwent a qualitative change.

It was the transformation from True Immortal to Immortal King.

Above his Immortal Platform, the original three strands of Immortal Qi began to fuse and sublimate, turning into a vast Immortal King Domain.

Within that Domain, there were scenes of Chaos at the beginning, visions of the myriad Daos intertwining, and the imprints of his three lifetimes of Dao fruits.

His Dao was, at this moment, completely in Perfection.

Immortal King Realm.

He broke through.

And one hundred thousand years after his Breakthrough, Xiao Nannan also stepped into that Realm.

The moment she broke through, the entire mountain Peak trembled.

Her Immortal King Domain unfolded; within that Domain, there were scenes of the Return to Ruins devouring all things, the supreme power of evolving the world, and the imprints of her lifelong battles.

Her Dao was, likewise, in Major Achievement at this moment.

Seven hundred thousand years.

Eight hundred thousand years.

Inside the array, the two auras had become so profound that they were immeasurable.

Chu Tianjiao, having climbed all the way from the True Immortal Middle Stage, after eight hundred thousand years of arduous cultivation, finally stood before the threshold of the Peak Immortal King.

His Dao was in Perfection, his Dharma was in Major Achievement, and his three lifetimes of Dao fruits had completely fused, turning into a complete Immortal King Dao Law that belonged solely to him.

Only one last step remained for him to step into the Immortal King Titan Realm.

Xiao Nannan had likewise reached the Peak Immortal King.

Her Dao had reached its limit, and her Dharma had reached Perfection.

Standing beside Chu Tianjiao, her aura was not the slightest bit weaker than his.

Eight hundred thousand years.

They finally woke up.

The instant Chu Tianjiao opened his eyes, the entire Immortal Domain trembled.

It was not because of how strong his aura was—although he was indeed very strong—but because the Lightning Tribulation that had accumulated for eight hundred thousand years had finally found an outlet.

"Rumble—!!!"

Above the sky, endless thunderclouds began to gather.

The scope of the thunderclouds was so vast that it far exceeded anyone's imagination.

Starting from the barren mountain range where they were, it spread to the end of the horizon, to the core area deep in the Immortal Domain, and to the skies above those ancient factions.

The entire Immortal Domain was shrouded by this terrifying Lightning Tribulation.

Countless living beings in the Immortal Domain looked up at the same moment, gazing at the thunderclouds that had suddenly appeared.

"This is... an Immortal King Tribulation?"

"No! This aura... it is the Lightning Tribulation of a Peak Immortal King!"

"Two? There are two auras?!"

"Two Peak Immortal Kings Undergoing Tribulation at the same time?!"

Deep in the Immortal Domain, among those ancient factions, terrifying Divine Thoughts soared into the sky, scanning towards the direction of the Lightning Tribulation.

When they clearly saw the two figures at the center of the Lightning Tribulation, everyone was stunned.

They were two Immortal Kings they had never seen before.

One male and one female, their auras as vast as the sea, were simultaneously triggering the Lightning Tribulation.

And what shocked them even more was that not far from the two, another figure stood quietly.

It was a woman in a green dress, her aura so profound it was immeasurable—that was the aura of an Immortal King Titan!
