Chapter 1755: Chapter 942: Passing the Heavenly Fire Tribulation with Ease, Obtaining the Great Brightness Root Mantra (2)

As soon as the main body disappeared, the two avatars in the Grotto Heaven immediately felt a sense of induction, involuntarily looking up towards the Tianqiong, with a glimmer of Divine Light in their eyes.

...

About half an hour later in the Ruins, a mysterious visitor quietly appeared in the sky over a continent in the southeast of Xuandou Spirit Realm.

Zhao Sheng dared not linger in this realm. Taking advantage of the fact that the Heavenly Dao here had not detected his presence, he immediately tore through the space-time barriers, hurriedly moving to the Third Inch Heaven.

After wandering in the Near Heaven for more than thirty thousand Constant Years, Zhao Sheng returned to the present world starry sky.

In a certain dark, vast and unfamiliar Star Domain, a colorful space-time vortex suddenly appeared out of thin air, and Zhao Sheng flew out from its depths.

The space-time vortex quickly dissipated, Zhao Sheng glanced around, his powerful Divine Thought spread like a storming torrent, sweeping through the surrounding billions of miles of Void.

Just as he thought, this space-time region had no star systems; it was an entirely empty and void dark area.

Zhao Sheng nodded slightly in satisfaction, then looked up, and a prominent Ancient Bronze Gate came into view.

The Ancient Bronze Gate was extremely abrupt, standing alone suspended in the dark Void, appearing very eerie and highly discordant.

However, Zhao Sheng was well aware of the origin of this Ancient Bronze Gate.

This gate was no different from the Stone Pillar Gate Tower standing above the Taiyi Spirit Realm; both were entrances to Ascension Immortal Heaven.

The difference was that the Immortal Heavens they corresponded to were not the same.

The Stone Pillar Gate Tower corresponded to the Supreme Immortal Heaven, while the Ancient Bronze Gate did not know which Supreme Dao Ancestor’s Immortal Heaven it corresponded to.

A few moments later, Zhao Sheng restrained his scatter thoughts, his entire body gradually emitting formidable terrifying Law Fluctuations.

The Law Fluctuations grew more expansive, soon transformed into billions of strands of dazzling and piercing Law Radiance, the brilliance like the Great Sun shining, gradually illuminating the surrounding billions of miles of dark Void. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

When a Tribulation Crossing Venerable releases all their Power, all beings realize how terrifying a Venerable can be.

Crack, crack...

The present world space was the first to be unable to withstand the Venerable’s Power; the space actually began to fracture on a large scale, quickly affecting the more distant dark Void.

Simultaneously, Zhao Sheng only felt his body infinitely "expanding," yet the present world space was rapidly "shrinking," even becoming as fragile as thin paper.

Often an unconscious action would easily pierce through the space-time barriers, thus triggering a Space-Time Storm.

Before long, Zhao Sheng suddenly felt a heat rising from within his body out of nowhere.

In an instant, like a spark falling into a pot of oil, his inexhaustible mana was suddenly "ignited."

BOOM BOOM BOOM~

In a moment of one ten-thousandth, Zhao Sheng suddenly felt unbearable pain; the originally smooth and silky mana abruptly transformed into endless blazing flames, quickly engulfing his whole body.

In a single thought, Zhao Sheng had already become a huge and dazzling Fire Man.

The blazing flames instantly spread to the Purple Mansion Soul Sea, which was also ignited, transforming into an endless Fire Sea.

At this moment, Zhao Sheng suddenly lost his induction of the external world, as if plunged into the legendary Hellfire Sea.

The unbearable pain, originating from the depths of the soul, almost devoured his consciousness and thoughts, and his firm Dao heart began to waver.

"In the beginning, Chaos and Yin Yang first divided, the Red Spirit took charge as the Flame Ancestor, Universe fires, heed my command..."

Amidst the hazy consciousness, Zhao Sheng timely chanted the Fire Extinguishing Spell, and the "frequency" of his soul began to change.

Upon chanting the final verse of the spell, the horrific pain from the depths of the soul suddenly vanished into thin air, replaced by an extreme feeling of ease and comfort.

At this moment, he seemed to become a part of the Heavenly Fire, no matter how it burned, he felt no pain.

But... the Heavenly Fire Tribulation is not that simple!

This tribulation uses the Venerable’s mana and Primordial Spirit as fuel; once ignited, it cannot be easily extinguished.

Pain is just one difficulty; the challenge is how to extinguish the Heavenly Fire.

Zhao Sheng was very fortunate because the Second Ancestor, Zhao Hongyun, had given him the best demonstration.

With the Second Ancestor’s insights and experiences, Zhao Sheng quickly adjusted the "frequency" of the soul, beginning to use Primordial Spirit and Will Heart Light to gradually suppress the Fire of Tribulation’s Law Fluctuations.

No one knows how much time had passed!

The originally blazing Fire of Tribulation gradually dimmed, surrounding darkness began to swiftly counterattack, the area illuminated by flames rapidly contracted, from billions of miles to millions, then compressed further to a hundred-thousand scale.

Three months later, this Outer Domain Void had only a ten-zhang diameter cluster of five-colored flames left.

The five-colored flames seemed alive, constantly swelling and shrinking, while the emitted Law Fluctuations gradually calmed.

Nine days later, the five-colored flames suddenly contracted to the extreme, then abruptly vanished.

At this moment, a naked man suddenly appeared out of thin air at the original location.

With a flash of brilliance, a plain white Magic Robe suddenly appeared on Zhao Sheng’s body. This robe was evidently transformed from flames, constantly emitting a faint Law Fluctuation.

"The Heavenly Fire Tribulation, nothing more!"

With a whisper, Zhao Sheng’s figure flickered and then vanished without a trace.

...

While Zhao Sheng successfully crossed the Heavenly Fire Tribulation, the avatar Dongzhenzi far outside the Pure Light Realm also miraculously had a sensation.

Swiftly, Dongzhenzi’s pressure suddenly surged, his aura suddenly fluctuated twice, immediately catching the side glance of the Zizai Heavenly Demon Lord.

The gray-robed old monk’s mind moved slightly, suddenly probing, "Taoist Zhao, could it be a joyful occasion? I just sensed a bit of joy arising in your heart."

Though the gray-robed old monk was an avatar of the Zizai Heavenly Demon Lord, he was also a generation of eminent monk and virtue at Lantuo Temple, most adept at the Telepathy, one of the Buddha’s six Great Divine Skills.

The gray-robed old monk was most skilled at sensing others’ emotional fluctuations, so as soon as Dongzhenzi’s joy arose, he was keenly aware of it.

Dongzhenzi restrained his mood, calmly saying, "Nothing much! This poor Taoist just feels the millennium period is approaching, and can’t help but have a bit of joy."

The gray-robed old monk didn’t believe it but didn’t ask further either.

He took the opportunity to suggest, "In my opinion, the two from the Lower Realm are both outstanding figures of the time. Over the past few hundred years, they’ve clashed nine times, with mixed results, never fully determining superiority. I propose to treat this as a tie, how about it?"

Dongzhenzi was somewhat moved by these words.

Back in the day, Han Lin and Zhang Xusheng, the old rivals encountered each other in the Outer Sea. Afterward, due to various coincidences, they gradually formed an inseparable enmity.

Over the past two hundred years, the two of them have fought nine times.

The first three encounters, only because Han Lin had the Dragon Emperor assisting, slightly edged out.

Later, the Dragon Emperor was plotted against and severely injured, and had to return to the Dragon Nest to recover.

Thus, in the following six encounters, Zhang Xusheng won four times, Han Lin, with his reversed fortune, managed to escape consecutively and his strength continued to improve dramatically.

The last two confrontations, he even turned defeat into victory, even breaking Zhang Xusheng’s Heavenly Human Dharma Aspect.

On one side is the lord of the Heavenly Alliance, ruling over billions of miles of mountains and seas, commanding ten thousand cultivators.

On the other is a supreme talent that subdued the Dragon Emperor, also because of single-handedly quelling the sea beast invasion, Han Lin’s prestige soared countless times, completely on par with the so-called "First of Ten Thousand Years," the True Monarch of Heavenly Destiny Zhang Xusheng.

Seeing that the two cannot determine life and death in the short term, Dongzhenzi began seriously considering the Zizai Heavenly Demon Lord’s proposal.

The gray-robed old monk most capable of understanding the subtle thoughts of people, seeing his heart moved, quickly tempted, "Taoist Zhao needn’t worry. I have no ill intentions. If treating it as a tie, I’m willing to offer the complete ’Great Brightness Root Mantra’. Taoist only needs to give up the position of Star Lord."

Dongzhenzi’s mind raced and quickly made a decision.

"If that’s the case, this poor Taoist has nothing to say. Let’s proceed as the Demon Master proposed."

"Infinite Saint Ancestor! This monk thanks Taoist for agreeing." The gray-robed old monk folded his hands together, quietly chanting in gratitude.

After saying this, he retrieved a golden Silk Book from his bosom, gently tossing it towards Dongzhenzi.

Dongzhenzi grasped the Golden Silk Scroll, simultaneously splitting a trace of Divine Thought to probe into it, instantly perceiving the chants coming from within, along with infinite brightness illuminating his Spirit.
