The black clouds tumbled violently. If nothing unexpected happened, the power of this Eternal tribulation would become increasingly perilous in the following time. Pillar upon pillar of tribulation light blazed like meteors, stirring up the nine heavens and cascading toward the land. In the process, they manifested a variety of unimaginable destructive phenomena.

One presented the sun, moon, and the whole void of stars in a huge cosmic chart, which dropped from above among a majestic flood of calamity energy.

One was a cohesion of mountains and rivers. Every blade of grass, every tree, every grain of sand, and every stone were branded with supreme heavenly power and brimming with the destructive power that made people despair.

One reflected the illusion of gods who seemed to walk out of eternity, their figures shrouded in the flow of the tribulation light.

There were many more of them, and under all these layers of assault, one could only imagine the horrid blow that Lin Xun was faced with.

To the spectators’ shock, however, he resisted head-on with his cultivation base every single time, and his Immortal law then crushed and ate away at all of them.

His handsome figure flickered, sometimes like a cauldron suppressing the world, sometimes like an abyss swallowing the sky. Submerged in the volatile tribulation light, he was as strong and overbearing as could be.

Xuan Feiling and the others were repeatedly astounded. This was no doubt the most terrifying Eternal tribulation they had ever witnessed, and Lin Xun's power was every bit as unexpected.

Such a spectacle lasted for two full hours until, all of a sudden, the raging clouds lurched into silence. However, they did not dissipate. The pressure in the atmosphere instead intensified.

Looking at Lin Xun again, although unharmed, his energy was obviously drained, to the point that he looked slightly pale. His foundation was strong and solid, but two hours of going all-out proved to be a little too much to swallow. In fact, it was already incredible that he was able to hold up for so long under such a menacing onslaught.

However, it was clear that his Eternal tribulation had yet to end. Lin Xun's clothes flapped as he gazed at the sky and consumed a drop of Primordial Divine Dew, which instantly restored his immensely depleted strength to its peak state.

Fifteen minutes later...

In the depths of the heavenly dome, a bright red color that should belong to blood suddenly appeared and dyed the inky clouds in a depressing scarlet.

“This is...” Xuan Feiling and the other old monsters widened their eyes.

The ancient texts of the Origin Sect recorded various past Eternal tribulations, with many described in detail. Those descriptions were mostly similar at their core. However, none of these ancient texts had ever recorded anything about an Eternal tribulation turning scarlet. It was absolutely unprecedented and unheard of!

Even Lin Xun slightly squinted at it. He had also studied those ancient texts over the years, but a quick comparison told him the Eternal tribulation he was facing was utterly different from the others. Not only was the power much greater, but also the aura emanating from it was unusually bizarre!

Boom!

Not waiting for Lin Xun to react, a blood-red light descended from the sky, transforming into a guillotine blade that was dripping with blood. From it, calamitous energy wafted out and caused the space fabric to crumble with its boundless horror.

Duang!

Lin Xun swung his fist to parry. In the shocking explosion that ensued, the scarlet guillotine was blasted apart, but he was also shaken and staggered back, his qi churning. It was at this moment that his expression became grave.

The heavenly tribulation had become stronger! Its destructive might had more than doubled!

RUMBLE~

Not leaving him much time to think, a thunderbolt shattered the oppressive atmosphere. The sea of scarlet clouds started to boil like lava, and dense blood-colored tribulation light started to rain down, ripping the air in their wakes like countless swords.

The infinite, blinding red turned the region into a bloody furnace, and it sought to completely exterminate Lin Xun in its belly. It was a scene straight out from a horror story! Even Lin Xun's heart shuddered. The intense sense of danger creeped him out, causing his body to stiffen.

Buzz!

He operated his dao without delay and transformed into a great abyss. Abstruse Immortal law crackled as it worked at maximum capacity and sheltered him entirely.

Bang bang bang bang!

Densely packed tribulation light blasted in. The place where he stood instantly produced fluctuations with the lethality of when countless stars exploded together. In the turbulence, the color of blood stained the area.

Petrified, Xuan Feiling and their others felt their hearts leap to their throats. Just watching from afar gave them a sense of despair, so one could imagine how perilous it was for Lin Xun who was in the eyes of the raging storm.

On top of that, the rolling red clouds above kept pouring down flood after flood of tribulation light. In the form of endless guillotines, they kept heading for Lin Xun's location... This situation lasted for long enough for one to leisurely savor a cup of tea!

When the scarlet tribulation clouds finally started to die down, the devastated void was already veiled in a red haze. The tumbling aura of calamity lingered in the air for a long time before it slowly dissipated.

That was when Lin Xun's figure was revealed. Or rather, it could no longer be called a figure. The damage was so severe that his shell had been blown to bits, from flesh to bones. Only a ball of primordial spirit wrapped in his essence blood was left wobbling.

His state was miserable beyond measure!

Xuan Feiling’s group only felt their blood run cold and their scalps going numb. In the previous round, Lin Xun was unharmed. Yet, this time, he had nearly been executed in that ghastly blood-red tribulation light!

“Huh?!”

Quickly, they witnessed something incredible. Lin Xun's primordial spirit was vaguely shaped like a mysterious lotus pattern. At first, it glowed with an abundant vitality pulse, and then, an astonishing metamorphosis began.

The tribulation aura in the four directions, among which were the scattered fragments of his flesh, suddenly acted as though they were pulled. They gathered like crazy toward his primordial spirit and wriggled, gradually outlining an illusory figure.

Afterward, this figure began to solidify little by little...

Several blinks of an eye later, Lin Xun was back, as good as new. The remaining energy of the blood-red tribulation light in the air was swallowed up by him, leaving behind not a drop!

Every inch of his skin now glowed brightly. When he breathed through his mouth and nose, dao sound rumbled. The strength of his aura was also a chunk more potent than it had been just moments ago!

“Rebuilt and nirvana’d in the light of the tribulation, this is like true immortality in the very sense of the word! Could this be the core mystery of the Eternal Supremacy Path?” Dugu Yong whispered in a shaking voice.

The other old monsters were also stunned by this scene of nirvana in destruction, new birth in the calamity. In fact, their guesses weren't far from the truth.

Lin Xun's Immortal law, from the very beginning, had been derived from his understanding of the Nirvana law. Up until now, ninety percent of the Nirvana law power of the Nirvana law had been fused into it. This coupled with the numerous Eternal laws he had absorbed in the Return Dominion’s Dao Burial Ground, had allowed his Immortal law to surpass the Divine Rank.

Such was the reason he had been able to realize rebirth after suffering such a murderous bombardment and even metamorphosed!

“There's still a lot to go...” Lin Xun placed his hands on his back and looked up.

This Eternal tribulation was far from over, and despite the incredible nirvana he had attained, he had an inkling that he was still far from the threshold of the Eternal Stage.

However, Lin Xun was not in a hurry, nor was he anxious. This Eternal tribulation might keep getting more scary, but his Immortal law was strong enough to let him undergo repeated rebirth and evolution in the midst of destruction!

In the dome of the sky, the scarlet clouds gradually turned into a mess of colors, and so did the tribulation light in their depths. Vaguely, the images of worlds took shape and continuously coalesced. Each world was overrun with chaotic tribulation light. Their shadows superimposed and undulated into something occult.

Although this tribulation round was only brewing, the terrifying aura atmosphere had alerted the billions of residents in the Seventh Heaven Domain. The entire sky of the heaven domain was welcoming angrily whistling winds. The tribulation clouds spread along the omnipresent tribulation breath and instantly covered every inch of space.

The countless beings inhabiting the worlds, cities, and secret realms of the Seventh Heaven Domain were collectively alarmed, frightened out of their wits. Horrified cries began to resound from every corner.

“What is this?!”

“It's so creepy!”

“Is this the end of the world coming?”

At the same time, somewhere extremely far away from the Thousand Star Sea, a figure that was zooming in through the air trembled and abruptly looked up.

“How could there be such a terrifying Eternal tribulation?” Clad in a monk's robe and had a skinny frame, he was Present Age Buddha Jianan of the Zen Sect. His pupils constricted and his expression flickered dimly as he had been greatly startled as well.

The next moment, he inhaled deeply and was about to move on when a cold voice rang out, “If we let this little thing with the Eternal Supreme potential certify eternity, no one in this world will ever be a match for him!”

Accompanying the voice, a man dressed in beastskin clothes who had a bronze-colored complexion materialized out of thin air. It was none other than Heaven Shaman Tan Wu!

Jianan solemnly said, “Therefore, he must die today.”

Feeling the seething murderous power in Jianan's words, Tan Wu grinned. “I didn't know that your dustless Zen heart could breed such resolute killing intent.”

Jianan made no comment and resumed on his way. Tan Wu retracted his smile and continued teleporting away.

Roughly fifteen minutes later, they arrived one after the other at the shore of Thousand Star Sea, just in time to see a long-brewed light struck down from the depths of the chaotic clouds.

The light was a mixture of clear and turbid, black and white like the primordial chaos before the creation of a world. It was filled with inconceivable destructive fluctuations.

KABOOM!

When it descended, the world was hurled straight into disarray. A heavy, gut-wrenching dao sound reverberated like the warring drums of doom. Even the two Eternal experts, Jianan and Tan Wu, uncontrollably gasped.

What a terrifying tribulation!

They exchanged a glance and saw the astonishment in each other's eyes. They had both certified eternity and had both endured perilous ordeals during their respective tribulation. Compared to this Eternal tribulation before them, what they had undergone was undoubtedly far inferior!
