Chapter 481: The Great Sun Vanishes? The Root Demon Tribulation!

Chapter 481: The Great Sun Vanishes? The Root Demon Tribulation!

Countless cultivators and Yang Shen's hearts were stirred, their gazes naturally turning towards the Stellar Realm's sun and the ten floating suns.

What was happening in the Supreme Principle Gate was unclear to them.

Only through the Stellar Projection could they know the outcome of the battle.

True Essence Venerable stood in the void, surrounded by Yang Shen, and he scanned the surroundings, speaking coldly, "This Ten Sun Venerable is too arrogant. He doesn't know the terror of the Supreme Venerable. This time... the Immortal World's first Creation Artifact will become the treasure of Taohuang Palace!"

The powerful beings around heard these words, each reacting differently.

Some were worried, while others had complex thoughts.

In the Ultimate Principle Council.

"Knowing he had the Supreme Principle Gate, we should have helped. Now... this Supreme Principle Gate has benefited the Great Sun."

"With the Great Sun's strength, plus the Supreme Principle Gate, in the Sixth Heaven... alas, this Ten Sun Venerable is rather unwise. He dares to gamble and seeks to gain much with little. He doesn't know that any scheme, in the face of a Supreme Venerable, will be useless."

Being Supreme Venerables themselves, they naturally understood the strength and terror of the Supreme Venerable.

One could say that the Supreme Venerable was even stronger than the common perception of the Great Supreme Enlightenment.

The two Supreme Venerables had deep thoughts, pondering the matters after the Great Sun's departure.

In the Azure Sky.

The old man, dressed in a simple robe, looked like a little old man.

"It seems that this time, the winner is..."

In the White Dragon Abyss.

The White Dragon Abyss Lord had a complex expression, "It's no wonder she was reluctant to bear my offspring. It turns out... there's the Supreme Principle Gate."

She spoke, looking at the stars in the Stellar Realm, expectation in her eyes.

These Yang Shen Venerables were certain that a great battle was about to unfold within the Supreme Principle Gate.

The victor would be the Great Sun.

However, their judgment was mistaken.

Inside the Supreme Principle Gate, it was quiet, with no sign of any grand battle.

Or perhaps... the king was nowhere to be found.

In the vast expanse, the starry sky was exquisite.

From afar, the stars resembled pearls, wrapped in colorful hues, resembling a hanging Milky Way.

Brilliant and boundless.

Qi Yuan stood in this vast universe, his expression complex. He shouted into the vastness, "Great Sun, your father calls you home for dinner!"

Even in the vacuum, Qi Yuan's voice could still be heard, instantly reaching a million li.

The voice didn't echo, and not even a ripple formed in the vastness.

Qi Yuan shrugged, "It seems the Great Sun has been transported to some unknown place."

Qi Yuan was aware of the strength gap between himself and the Great Sun.

In a head-on clash, the likelihood of his defeat was high.

So, he decided to use his intelligence to gain an advantage.

He didn't plan to directly confront the Great Sun, so he set up a scheme as if pressured by Taohuang Palace, and in desperation, he used the Supreme Principle Gate to force an exchange with the Great Sun.

But after the Great Sun entered the Supreme Principle Gate, Qi Yuan immediately placed the Supreme Principle Gate into the universe where the Stellar Golden Core was located.

Then, he quickly retrieved it.

So, when the Great Sun opened the door, he entered not the Supreme Principle Gate but a boundless universe.

The universe was vast, even larger than the Sixth Heaven.

The Great Sun was exiled into this universe.

"Entering another universe from the Sixth Heaven will lead to immediate death."

Qi Yuan muttered to himself.

This was the information he had obtained in the Sixth Heaven.

The beings of the Sixth Heaven couldn't travel to other universes through Mystic Lands, and attempting to do so would result in instant death.

Moreover, beings from other universes who entered the Sixth Heaven through Mystic Lands couldn't return to their original universe and would also face life-threatening consequences.

"But... I vaguely sense that this universe is ownerless."

"Or perhaps... there's another reason?"

Qi Yuan began to speculate.

Due to the lack of ownership, the Great Sun Supreme Venerable was able to enter without immediate demise.

At this moment, a flash of light appeared.

Ning Tao, dressed in a black skirt, and Jin Si Que, in a yellow-orange dress, appeared. They were petite and charming, with a seductive allure.

Without hesitation, Jin Si Que's delicate body instantly leaped into Qi Yuan's embrace, hanging on him like a koala.

A shower of kisses fell like raindrops, as Jin Si Que's soft lips boldly sought his.

"I've missed you so much!" Jin Si Que's eyes were filled with intense longing and attachment, openly expressing her emotions.

Qi Yuan's hand slid up Jin Si Que's leg, while the other hand held her perky body, a hint of gentleness in his eyes.

Unlike Jin Si Que's bold passion, Ning Tao seemed more reserved and distant.

The black skirt accentuated Ning Tao's already pale skin, making it appear even more sickly and white like jade. Her slender body stood there, and on her cold, distant face, a faint smile emerged.

"In the place illuminated by the Stellar Golden Core, the Great Sun's figure hasn't been found. He should not be in our universe."

"It seems he's been transported to another void," Qi Yuan pondered.

The universe was vast beyond imagination, and even a Yang Shen Venerable might struggle to explore it in their entire lifetime.

"If only we could transport him into a black hole, I wonder if it would kill him!" Qi Yuan mused.

As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Ning Tao's icy hand.

Ning Tao didn't resist, her expression turning slightly grave, "After you return, a day here will be a hundred years there. If he stays here... without the restriction of the True Essence, he might thrive. He could be like a fish in water."

"Qi Yuan, you don't seem worried at all. You said that this universe is not even suitable for cultivation, let alone for Six Heavens cultivators."

When he formulated the Super Grand Plan, he had already anticipated unexpected events.

This universe was peculiar, and almost devoid of spiritual energy.

One could even say that it was inferior to the lower realms of Six Heavens.

Maintaining one's cultivation here was already impressive, let alone improving one's strength.

If one were to say that Qi Yuan suddenly encountered a fortuitous opportunity in this universe, found a supreme treasure, and enhanced his strength, then it would be better to give up.

If such a guess were to be made, then there would be no point in continuing.

It would be better to assume that Qi Yuan encountered a fortuitous event in Six Heavens, found a supreme treasure, and suddenly gained enlightenment, becoming a reincarnation of the Dao Ancestor.

"However, you all need to be cautious. Although the universe is vast, there is still a one-in-a-million chance of encountering Qi Yuan." Qi Yuan said, "If you do meet him, quickly return to Six Heavens."

Although the probability was one in a million, one still had to be vigilant.

"Hmph, my lord, you underestimate me too much. I've been working hard to become stronger," Ning Tou said lightly.

With a wave of her hand, a terrifying force swept through the area.

The surrounding stars instantly became turbulent.

Qi Yuan felt that the surrounding space was momentarily confined.

"The Great Supreme Enlightenment?" Qi Yuan blinked, feeling a bit surprised.

The power Ning Tou just displayed, even if it wasn't the Great Supreme Enlightenment, was very close to it.

She proudly said, "Refining Stellar Golden Pellets every day, my strength increases, although not as much as my lord, is still quite impressive.

If that Qi Yuan dares to appear here, my lord's Stellar Golden Pellets, borrowed by me, will definitely make him regret it!"

Every time Qi Yuan refines a Stellar Golden Pellet, his strength increases, and as the pellet refiner, Ning Tou's strength also rises accordingly.

In this universe, Qi Yuan's Golden Pellets are true stars, not just a name.

Ning Tou spoke with an air of dominance, while Jin Si Qiao clung to Qi Yuan, not missing a single breath.

At this moment, Ning Tou's eyebrows furrowed, "My lord, there's another woman's scent on you."

Jin Si Qiao stopped her movements and curled up in Qi Yuan's embrace, her eyes fluttering, "It's quite pleasant."

"It's Jingli," Qi Yuan did not hide the truth.

Ning Tou and Jin Si Qiao had learned of Jingli's existence on the Arching Star.

"So it's Sister Jingli."

"So it's Sister Jingli."

Jin Si Qiao and Ning Tou spoke simultaneously, each using a different term of address.

Ning Tou clutched the corner of her garment, glancing at the distant stars, a hint of reluctance in her eyes, but she firmly said, "My lord, hurry back, although Qi Yuan is not here, the threat from Taohuang Palace remains."

Qi Yuan nodded, picking up Ning Tou as well.

A look of panic flashed across Ning Tou's face.

After all, she maintained an image of a mature and composed woman.

How could a mature woman be picked up like a doll?

Once my lord leaves, Jin Si Qiao will surely mock her.

Qi Yuan kissed Ning Tou and Jin Si Qiao on their cheeks, showing no sentimentality, "I'm going back first."

His figure also disappeared at this moment.

In the desolate universe, only Ning Tou and Jin Si Qiao's delicate figures remained.

"Hmph, so restrained, you've gained a lot, haven't you? Today, I kissed my lord more than thirteen thousand times!" Jin Si Qiao said with a hint of pride and boastfulness.

"Hmph, if your pellet refining speed was as fast as your kisses, my lord would already be invincible in the world!"

"You're jealous of me, your possessiveness is too strong, it might make you ill!

Usually, you're so composed, but in bed, you're even more..."

"You!"

"..."

In Six Heavens, countless eyes were fixed on the Heaven-Earth Wonderland.

Jingli's mind was tense, a hint of worry in her eyes.

Fortunately, the Moon Mark had not been severely damaged, which was a good thing.

True Essence Venerable's expression was calm, but his inner thoughts were not as serene as his exterior.

Although Qi Yuan's star was Ten Sun Venerable, whose star was also present, implying that Ten Sun Venerable had not been slain by Ten Sun Venerable.

This naturally raised doubts in his mind.

The other Venerables and Sun Spirit Venerable shared similar thoughts.

Logically, such a battle should have been resolved quickly.

At this moment, space suddenly rippled, and a lazy voice emerged.

"Oh dear, where did Qi Yuan go? How did he lose track of me?"

Qi Yuan's figure appeared, standing in the void, his hands spread wide, an innocent look in his eyes.

"Qi Yuan is missing, I didn't abduct him!"

At this moment, all the Sun Spirits Venerables witnessing this scene couldn't help but rub their eyes, finding it hard to believe what they were seeing.

"You... you actually..." True Essence Venerable couldn't believe his eyes.

Ten Sun Venerable and Qi Yuan disappeared together, and the one who emerged was Ten Sun Venerable.

A sense of absurdity mixed with crisis swept through the place.

"This..." White Dragon Abyss Lord's expression was particularly complex.

These past few days, his heart had been more turbulent than all the previous lives combined.

The Blood Robe was Ten Sun Venerable, who had comprehended two Supreme Ultimate Principles, the Ultimate Principle Gate, and even made Qi Yuan disappear.

(End)

In the vast expanse of the Immortal Cultivation World, a series of events unfolded that shook the very foundations of the Six Heavens. All these occurrences centered around a single individual, and they happened in an incredibly short span of time.

The White Dragon Abyss, once a place of coolness, now felt devoid of any chill. It was as if all the cold had been sucked away by a mysterious force.

Within the Ultimate Principle Council, two Supreme Venerables experienced a profound shock.

The Great Sun Venerable, known for his unparalleled might, had seemingly entered the Ultimate Principle Gate and vanished without a trace.

The gazes of those present turned towards Qi Yuan, their expressions shifting from pity to apprehension.

At this moment, they truly began to take Qi Yuan seriously, no longer treating him as a mere junior.

"Where have you hidden the Supreme Venerable?" True Essence Venerable demanded angrily, his voice laced with fear.

"I don't know. Maybe he got dementia and wandered off. Don't blame me; I won't take the fall for this!" Qi Yuan retorted, his tone defiant.

True Essence Venerable's face turned pale, struggling to find a response.

In the midst of this tension, Qi Yuan's expression hardened. He seemed to sense something, and his eyes locked onto True Essence Venerable with a hint of murderous intent.

"In one day, I will flatten Radiant Palace!" Qi Yuan declared, his voice cold as ice.

As Qi Yuan's words hung in the air, his figure vanished, leaving behind a chilling threat.

The Yang Deities present were shaken by Qi Yuan's bold declaration.

It seemed that the Great Sun Venerable had indeed been trapped by the Ten Sun Venerable, unable to escape for the time being.

However, despite this, the Radiant Palace's deep-rooted power was still formidable. How dare the Ten Sun Venerable challenge it?

Could it be that he had some hidden trump card? But in the face of absolute power, would such cards even matter?

After all, as long as one didn't venture into the unknown Ultimate Principle Gate, and with the Six Heavens being their home ground, without a single Supreme Enlightenment Seal holder among them, how could they possibly challenge Radiant Palace?

The entire world was in awe, but as time passed, they grew accustomed to the situation.

Meanwhile, in Ziyuan Heaven, chaos reigned.

Initially, Ziyuan Ancestor and Holy Without Command were engaged in a battle where Ziyuan Ancestor was at a disadvantage, but his life wasn't in immediate danger.

However, something unexpected happened. Holy Without Command suddenly unleashed the Root Demon Blood, triggering Ziyuan Ancestor's Root Demon Tribulation.

The Root Demon Tribulation was the bane of cultivators in this realm, especially for the Yang Deities of the Supreme Enlightenment Realm.

For Yang Deities in the Supreme Enlightenment Realm, death was rare unless they encountered the Lin Ya Transformation.

Among the fallen Yang Deities, nearly two-thirds had succumbed to the Root Demon Tribulation.

As a result, the Yang Deities in the Six Heavens were divided. Some boldly pushed forward, while others, aware of their limits, chose to remain stagnant.

Ziyuan Ancestor, for instance, had not advanced in cultivation for many years, deliberately delaying the arrival of his Root Demon Tribulation.

He knew that if the tribulation came, his death was certain.

It could be said that aside from those who had mastered the Supreme Ultimate Principle, all other Supreme Enlightenments, including those in the second tier like the White Dragon Abyss Lord, regarded the Root Demon Tribulation as a deadly scorpion.

The Root Demon Tribulation loomed like a sword hanging over their heads, preventing these Supreme Enlightenments from progressing.

If they could survive the tribulation unscathed, their cultivation would continue to grow, and they might even approach the level of a Supreme Venerable.

At this moment, Ziyuan Ancestor found himself entangled in the Root Demon Tribulation.

Holy Without Command, witnessing the emergence of the Ten Sun Venerable from the Heaven Earth Mystic Land, didn't hesitate and immediately fled.

Ziyuan Ancestor paced, his expression tense. "Our Ancestor... he's caught in the Root Demon Tribulation..."

As one of the few Yang Deities in Ziyuan Heaven, he naturally understood the gravity of the situation.

If their Ancestor perished, Ziyuan Heaven might plummet to the Fifth Heaven, and even face the risk of annihilation.

The other Yang Deities, including Ziyuan Daxue, wore worried expressions.

Their Ancestor was the pillar that held Ziyuan Heaven together.

In the void, Ziyuan Ancestor's body was half withered, his once vibrant self now a shell of its former self.

The Root Demon Tribulation was devouring his body and consuming his divine soul.

His eyes, once clear, now held a vacant gaze, only occasionally regaining clarity.

"Sigh, this is my tribulation. There's no need for sorrow," Ziyuan Ancestor spoke, his voice filled with desolation.

He could feel his impending demise drawing near.

He wouldn't last much longer.

"The only fortunate thing is that the Blood Robe has emerged from the Ultimate Principle Gate," Ziyuan Ancestor said, a faint smile appearing on his lips. "To witness this before my death is enough for a lifetime!"

However, Ziyuan Ancestor also felt a tinge of helplessness. If the Blood Robe saw him in such a pitiful state, he might even be mocked.

In Ziyuan Heaven, the Yang Deities and Heavenly Talents couldn't help but feel a sense of gloom upon hearing this.

Suddenly, a calm voice interrupted the somber atmosphere. "Why so sad? I thought you were having a feast.

I almost brought the speakers over to play some music for you! If you don't like speakers, I'll bring my Divine Infants Orchestra instead."

The Yang Deities and Heavenly Talents in the room were startled by the voice.

In the vast expanse of the universe, a peculiar scene unfolded within the depths of the Root Demon Tribulation. The Root Demon, a formidable entity, manifested as a ball of intertwined threads, its evil and greedy nature palpable. It seemed to envelop the figure known as Zi Yuan Zu, its tendrils reaching out to devour his body and soul.

The Root Demon Tribulation was not to be taken lightly, and any intrusion by outsiders could result in dire consequences. Yet, amidst the anxious and sorrowful onlookers, a figure named Qi Yuan calmly stepped into the tribulation, his presence seemingly taming the wild strands.

"Blood Robe!" Zi Yuan Zu exclaimed, a hint of admiration in his voice. "You've got some nerve, even in the face of death, you don't give a moment's peace."

"Death? What death?" Qi Yuan, perplexed, looked at Zi Yuan Zu. "With me by your side, how could you possibly die? I'll protect you!"

Zi Yuan Zu was taken aback by this statement.

Qi Yuan continued, his tone carrying a sense of reassurance, "It's just a small issue. I possess medical skills, and I can heal you."

The crowd's sorrowful atmosphere dissipated slightly at these words.

Zi Yuan Zu glared at Qi Yuan, "You're pushing your luck, aren't you? Even in the face of death, you don't leave any room for dignity."

"I'm an old man, and my kidneys are strong!" Zi Yuan Zu retorted.

"Old age catches up with everyone, and sometimes, the kidneys just don't cooperate," Qi Yuan yawned, unbothered by the situation.

Of course, Qi Yuan had no medical skills to speak of. He was simply making a casual remark about kidneys.

"Come, let me enter your Root Demon Tribulation and help you heal," Qi Yuan said, taking action.

As Qi Yuan stepped into the tribulation, Zi Yuan Zu's eyes widened in surprise.

"Blood Robe!" Zi Yuan Zu exclaimed again.

"Blood Robe!" Qi Yuan responded.

"He's actually entering the Root Demon Tribulation!"

"Are you seeking death?"

Zi Yuan Zu was momentarily speechless, surprised by Qi Yuan's bold move without any preparation.

"Kid, come out quickly. The Root Demon Tribulation is no joke; it involves..." Zi Yuan Zu began to explain, his eyes widening with concern.

Qi Yuan did not waste any more words. Amidst the gazes of Yang Deities and Heavenly Lords, he fearlessness, and entered the Root Demon Tribulation.

Within the tribulation, countless colors and lines intertwined, forming a chaotic world resembling a ball of yarn. The strands seemed to reach out like tentacles, exuding evil, greedy, and ravenous auras, enveloping Zi Yuan Zu and slowly consuming his body and divine soul.

The Root Demon Tribulation was not to be trifled with.

Upon entering, Qi Yuan encountered the terrifying Root Demons, which seemed even more ferocious than before.

"Blood Robe Senior!" Qi Yuan called out.

"Blood Robe!" Zi Yuan Zu replied.

"He's actually dealing with the Root Demons!"

"Seeking death, is he?"

Zi Yuan Zu was stunned by Qi Yuan's ability to handle the Root Demons without any struggle.

"Kid, you're... How are you doing this? These Root Demons..." Zi Yuan Zu was perplexed.

The Blood Robe, the source of the bloodline from the Dark Demon Abyss, had no relation to the Root Demons.

Otherwise, how could Zi Yuan Zu have endured the Root Demon Tribulation?

"It's not my relative, but... it looks a bit like my original divine ability," Qi Yuan explained.

The Original Divine Ability, a unique power of the Zi Yuan Heaven, was indeed similar to the Root Demons in appearance.

"Let me... swallow!" Qi Yuan exclaimed.

The Swallowing Original Divine Ability, obtained from the Blood Demon, came into play.

In an instant, a blood-red mouth, resembling a blood basin, emerged from the blood-red sword.

This blood basin, eerie and sinister, began to rapidly swallow the Root Demons.

The terrifying Root Demons, faced with this blood basin, did not attempt to escape. Instead, they seemed to willingly submit to being swallowed.

The dense Root Demons, akin to rice flour, were being devoured by the blood basin.

Zi Yuan Zu was in disbelief at what he was witnessing.

However, the disappearance of the Root Demons was undeniable.

Qi Yuan's aura began to improve, and the signs of decay and decline on his body started to fade.

Zi Yuan Zu, witnessing Qi Yuan's transformation, was astonished. "You're saying... you're the father of the Immortal Dao Principle, and I believe it!"

What was happening to the Blood Robe was far from ordinary.

As a Supreme Enlightenment, Zi Yuan Zu had encountered countless strange occurrences, but Qi Yuan's situation was truly unprecedented.

At this moment, with the Root Demons vanquished, Qi Yuan sheathed his sword, which now bore additional patterns resembling the Root Demons.

"My medical skills are indeed remarkable, aren't they? Your kidney issues are cured!" Qi Yuan boasted, his blood-red sword merging back into his body.
