Longevity Martial Arts: I have a Mysterious Water Snake Avatar-Chapter 749 - 499: Cold Moon Dragon Demon Achieves the Pinnacle as a Quasi-Emperor_4

Calamities ascend from low to high and are classified as Earth Calamity, Heaven Tribulation, Vast Calamity, Myriad Tribulation, Small Difficulties of Chaos, and Great Chaos Tribulation.

The origin of tribulations stems from the Heavenly Tao's emphasis on balance, reducing the surplus to aid the insufficient. All things are in equilibrium, mutually restraining each other.

As the saying goes, a tree that stands out in the forest will surely be pressed by the wind. Similarly, a bank that builds up on the shore will inevitably be battered by the rapid current.

Ordinarily, a Saint undergoes a minor tribulation every seventy years and a major tribulation every hundred years. One must endure countless hardships to continue on the path of cultivation.

Not every Saint is confident in facing their tribulations. Therefore, many Saints choose to make a cut themselves, halting their cultivation progress for life as a trade-off to slow the arrival of their tribulations.

Note: It is slowing down, not eliminating!

One can imagine just how much the Saints fear the tribulations imposed by the will of the heavens.

And now, the tribulation faced by Hong Yuan's Demonic Body is called the Small Difficulties of Chaos!

Once he overcomes this tribulation, it means he will have become a Great Saint and will be able to claim a place of esteem in the Martial World.

Take the Divine Continent of Eastern Wilderness as an example. After forgoing the Human Clan Sky Palace and the Eastern Wilderness Academy, the most formidable combat powers on the Divine Continent include Great Saints such as Phoenix Creek Great Saint and Qinglu Great Saint.

It is precisely because of the presence of these Great Saints that the Phoenix Creek Sect and the Qinglu Taoist Temple possess the capital to hold their ground in the battle for Destiny, allowing them to resist until the very end, fighting stubbornly to the last.

Therefore, Great Saints are precious, and the Small Difficulties of Chaos are terrifying!

CRACK...

CRACK... CRUNCH...

But in a very short time, the sound of munching echoed from within Hong Yuan's Demonic Body.

The third tribulation of the Eighth Grade, the Small Difficulties of Chaos—he passed through it with such ease!

Moreover, he also discovered what The Road of the True Dragon for his Demonic Body was:

"Everyone should sweep the snow from their own doorsteps and not worry about the frost on their neighbors' roofs!"

Greed! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Gluttony!

Selfishness and self-interest!

This perfectly matched Hong Yuan's Demonic Body, revealing his true nature without any disguise.

At this moment, Hong Yuan's gaze was profound as he stared at the proficiency panel.

[Name: Hong Yuan]

[Talent: 99]

[Realm: Sixth Grade]

[School:

[Avatar: Cold Moon Dragon (xx True Dragon)]

[Level: Eighth Grade]

[Talents:

Thunder Emperor Treasure Skill, Myriad Silence Realm Divine Power, Heavenly Demon Dismantling Divine Power,

Starfire Prairie Divine Strategy, Cold Moon Seal Divine Power, Ten Thousand Heavy Water Divine Power,

...]

A life span of over four hundred million years.

With such an extensive period of time, even a tiny ant could cultivate into a Heavenly Horned Ant, and a blade of dry grass could cultivate into a Nine-Leaf Sword Grass.

Moreover, the unknown evolutions are already half clear.

True Dragon? Food Tao?!

Hong Yuan gazed at his proficiency panel, unable to help but give himself a thumbs up in his heart.

Such a magnificent panel implies that its owner must be extremely powerful.

Regrettably, Hong Yuan currently lacks an Emperor Artifact. Or rather, the Demon Clan presently doesn't have an Emperor Artifact to stabilize their fortunes.

Otherwise, with an Emperor Artifact in hand, his Demonic Body could charge head-on, topple the East Supreme Saint, and even point at East Supreme Saint's nose while calling him an idiot.

Emperor Artifact, ah... Hong Yuan sighed deeply.

Back then, when he incarnated as the True Dragon of Great Moon to dominate the Black Heaven, his failure was due to the Human Race unleashing all their Emperor Artifacts. This allowed Soul Killing to slip into the White Red Heaven and become Emperor.

Yet at that time, he too damaged several Emperor Artifacts of the Human Race, making them pay a heavy price.

Now, he certainly won't let the Human Race Destiny ascend to the White Red Heaven again.

He is now strong—incredibly strong. Strong in all aspects, far surpassing Han Jiuming of the same period!

「Two hours later.」

Hong Yuan's eyes took on a subtle expression.

For the Great Moon Virtual Mirror was in contact with the Purple-Gold Furnace and was seeking to draw the Purple-Gold Furnace in.

Deceiving demons, deceiving humans, even deceiving the heavens?

Heh, so the play must go on in its entirety...

Hong Yuan, who had already reached the pinnacle of Quasi-Emperor, had a thought, and his purple-gold dragon robe billowed.

He directly used the authority of the Master of the Tao of Great Moon. This caused fragments of Star Regions to reappear and the Origin of the Stars to converge.

As if he had never swallowed the Origin of the Stars from the Great Moon Trial's minor world!

Yet, this was merely a flower in the water, a moon in the mirror—nine parts false and one true—nothing but illusory bubbles.

Before long, the "Xuan Guangqiao" transformed from the Purple-Gold Furnace entered. It began to break through the levels, absorbing the Origin of the Stars.

The Great Moon Spirit observed silently from outside the Great Moon Trial's minor world.

Meanwhile, Hong Yuan's Demonic Body also hid in the darkness, silently observing.

However, Hong Yuan's focus was not on the Purple-Gold Furnace but on the Great Moon Virtual Mirror.

You watch yours, I watch mine. One layer enveloping another, like paintings within paintings...
