As Lu Yuan’s gaze shifted, an intangible and immense phantom materialized behind him.

This giant figure seemed almost identical to the ordinary Dharma Idol of the Nascent Soul Stage.

However, the moment this giant manifested, the air around them seemed to congeal as if frozen in time.

Even experts as formidable as Gu Qiuyue, who was at the Ethereal Stage, now felt a terrifying pressure emanating from this colossal being.

This pressure didn’t stem from a disparity in cultivation levels but from a difference in realms.

The pressure stemming from this disparity in realms left Gu Qiuyue utterly horrified.

She hadn’t anticipated that within Lu Yuan’s being, such a dread-inducing Dharma Idol was incubating.

Perhaps, from beginning to end, Lu Yuan’s Dharma Idol wasn’t the immortal sword she had envisioned.

Instead, it was the formless and unseen colossus before her.

As this colossal figure materialized, it turned its gaze towards the Heavenly tribulation above.

By this time, the Heavenly tribulation had transformed into a vast vortex.

At the heart of this vortex, a radiant golden light sphere condensed.

The surface of this golden light sphere was incredibly smooth, exuding an aura of utmost serenity.

It appeared harmless on the surface.

However, even the discerning could perceive that this golden light sphere was far more fearsome than the preceding Thunder Heavenly Sword.

Eor this golden light sphere harbored the purest annihilative force, a representation of the true origin of Heavenly tribulations.

As long as some of the power in the golden light sphere flowed out, it could form a Heavenly tribulation that an ordinary cultivator would encounter.

Yet, even with such a high-density concentration of primordial power, it was being directed towards a person.

This grand spectacle illustrated the magnitude of the way of the heavens attention towards Lu Yuan.

Under the astonished gaze of Gu Qiuyue, the Heavenly tribulation of the Origin began to descend at a leisurely pace.

Although its descent was unhurried, the surrounding space began to warp under the strain of its formidable power.

In certain areas, spatial fissures even tore open, and a multitude of chaotic spatial currents swirled around.

However, these turbulent currents, evaded by outsiders, couldn’t make a dent in the force of the primordial light sphere.

Observing the light sphere, resembling a perpetually descending sun, Lu Yuan’s Transcendent Dharma Idol finally stirred.

His fingers slowly lifted, pointing directly at the primordial light sphere above.

In the next second, vast amounts of spiritual energy converged between the fingers of the Transcendent Dharma Idol.

Under the guidance of some kind of the power of laws, this spiritual energy actually began to compress continuously and finally formed a pure black vortex.

After the black vortex appeared, the surrounding space began to distort.

Even before unleashing its power, the black vortex had attained such dread. The extent of its might post-activation was beyond imagination.

But perhaps only this caliber of existence could prompt the way of the heavens to descend an Apotheosis Stage of Heavenly tribulation akin to the Ethereal Stage.

At this moment, Gu Qiuyue recollected the words her father had once spoken to her.

“Qiu’er, this world is both fair and unfair.”

“The fairness lies in the fact that this is a realm where diligence yields rewards without fail.”

“The unfairness lies in the reality that, despite your efforts, you might not necessarily reap proportionate rewards.”

“You might not fully grasp my words now, but one day, when you encounter someone who defies your utmost imagination and seems unattainable, you’ll comprehend the world’s inherent inequities.”

“Some individuals stand atop the summit not solely due to their arduous toil but because they’ve been there since the very start.”

“Our sole pursuit should be, as they ascend to greater heights, to strive to catch a glimpse of their backs. Nothing more.”

At the time, Gu Qiuyue didn’t take those words seriously.

She believed that if such a person truly existed in the world, then she, with the

True Phoenix Blood, must be the one born at the mountain’s summit.

For a considerable period, Gu Qiuyue clung to this belief.

However, now she realized she had been mistaken.

What she had assumed to be the mountain’s peak was merely a realm that others could casually step into.

Observing Lu Yuan in the present moment, she no longer regarded him as the prodigious Evildoer who had embarked on his journey from the Void Refinement Realm.

He was… a true immortal!

If there were immortals in this world.

Absolutely, in her eyes, Lu Yuan had already equated to an immortal.

She couldn’t fathom how, if he weren’t a legendary immortal, he could wield techniques akin to those of an Ethereal Stage cultivator before even breaking through to the Apotheosis Stage.

In this span, two colossal stages were bridged!

Amid Gu Qiuyue’s complex gaze, the “Immortal Slaying Power” within Lu Yuan’s Transcendent Dharma Idol was gradually being harnessed.

Upon the collision of the black vortex and the Origin Heavenly tribulation, there was no earth-shattering explosion as anticipated. Instead, an eerie calmness prevailed, a tranquility so unsettling it invoked fear.

The two forces continually interwove, inducing intense fluctuations within the surrounding space.

These fluctuations might have been imperceptible, yet they inflicted unimaginable destruction on the environment.

The tribulation cloud above was entranced by the central vortex of the collision, and gradually pulled within.

Countless Daoist Rhythm encircled the vortex, poised as if they could shatter at any instant.

The collision was situated high in the sky. If it occurred on the ground, beside the parasol tree…

The vortex might even engulf the entire palace.

It would destroy the entire palace.

Finally, after the vortex absorbed all the tribulation clouds.

The Speed Star Sword Domain which was originally covered in dark clouds finally returned to normal.

Had it not been for the lingering traces of the Heavenly tribulation on the parasol tree and its surroundings, Gu Qiuyue might have doubted whether what she had just witnessed was a mere illusion.

Following his successful traversal of the Heavenly tribulation, Lu Yuan’s body was gradually enveloped in the primordial essence of heaven and earth.

These cosmic essences entered his body, gradually restoring the facets of his incomplete way of the heavens.

[Ding! Your skill, “Leader Star Sword Intent,” has been influenced by the origin of heaven and earth, and its proficiency is beginning to rise…]

[Ding! Your skill, “Wisdom Star Sword Intent,” has been influenced by the origin of heaven and earth, and its proficiency is beginning to rise…]

The 30 Big Dipper sword intents began to increase at an astonishing speed.

The improvement of the Big Dipper sword intent was also reflected in Lu Yuan’s Dharma Idol.

After all, the Big Dipper sword intent that he had learned had essentially fused with his Dharma Idol.

The transformation of the Dharma was not as obvious as the sword’s intent, but it was equally shocking.

Lu Yuan’s Dharma Idol began to gradually fuse with his body.

During this process, his body began to have some kind of Dao Rhythm.

It was as if there was a Dao Rhythm circulating in the air between each breath.

If Lu Yuan, who had obtained the Innate Spirit at the Nascent Soul Stage, was the darling of the heavens and earth, then he would have been a genius.

Now, he was the son of heaven and earth.

It was a terrifying existence that could constantly become stronger.

Lu Yuan also had a rough understanding of his current state through the system.

[Ding! Through attaining the origin of heaven and earth, your Nascent Soul Stage, and Innate Spirit have transformed into Primordial Spirit.]

[Primordial Spirit: Embodying the Qi of Primordial Chaos, the foundational essence of heaven and earth. Dao techniques follow the heart’s will, and words bring about immediate effects.]

[Effect: You can transmute your spiritual energy into the Qi of Primordial Chaos, laying the foundation for becoming a Saint.]

Sensing the trace of Qi of Primordial Choas within him, Lu Yuan felt an overwhelming sense of felicity.

He could discern that this speck of Qi of Primordial Choas was more pivotal to him than any other form of energy he had possessed previously.

Even though he wasn’t certain how this touch of Qi of Primordial Choas would alter him.

From the cryptic hints provided by the system, Lu Yuan gleaned some insight.

With the Qi of Primordial Choas at his command, he essentially held the key to transcendence.

While others sought methods to attain immortality, he already possessed the capability to advance toward the realm of a Saint.

Such gains were revolutionary.

It could be stated that this breakthrough hadn’t solely advanced his cultivation significantly.

It had an immensely profound influence on his future.

Thanks to this breakthrough, Lu Yuan perceived that his forthcoming cultivation would not only progress more swiftly but also establish a foundation of stability that surpassed the imaginings of the average person..
