Chapter 1233 Eternal Tribulation
The eighth floor of the Yuanji Immortal Boat is the Starry Immortal Palace.
Su Mo suddenly stood up from the Xuanmo Purple Lotus, and the primordial energy surrounding him surged violently, like a boiling giant wave, crashing against the star patterns engraved in the hall and emitting a "humming" resonance, as if the entire immortal palace was trembling in preparation for the upcoming transformation.
His gaze was fixed intently on the three newly added golden characters on the attribute panel—"Can be infused." The three characters shone brightly on the panel, emanating a Daoist charm that made his heart tremble, as if they contained the key to breaking the shackles of the Immortal King. Each stroke seemed to be formed from the primordial chaos, exuding an ancient and majestic aura.
Over nearly 30 million years, the illusory bodies of the spirits obliterated 113 third-tier Eternal Immortal Kings, finally gathering the Eternal True Spirits needed for enlightenment.
"Fortunately, this Formless Forbidden Land exists." Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes. "Otherwise, I don't know when I would have had to wait to become an Immortal King."
Eternal Immortal Kings are not as common as Immortal Golden Immortals. A typical immortal kingdom might have hundreds of thousands, even millions, of Immortal Golden Immortals, but in most immortal kingdoms, there are only a handful of Eternal Immortal Kings, each a pillar of their kingdom. They are rarely seen, appearing only once every few decades or even hundreds of cosmic eras. Finding their traces is as difficult as ascending to heaven. Take the Yuan Jin Immortal King, for example; if he hadn't been so eager for revenge that he actively sought him out, finding him within the vast Yuan Jin Immortal Kingdom would have been no easy task.
Moreover, if a large-scale massacre of Eternal Immortal Kings were to take place outside, the commotion would be earth-shattering, and there's no guarantee that it wouldn't lead to some unpredictable accidents. Unlike here in the Formless Forbidden Land, where the Formless Mysterious Mist suppresses the divine senses of Immortal Kings, even a fifth-order Eternal Immortal King's divine sense can only probe within a million Dao years, so there's no need to worry about easily exposing their presence.
"call......"
Taking another deep breath, Su Mo suppressed his excitement. A flash of azure light appeared on his body, and he disappeared from the Starry Sky Immortal Palace. This Yuanji Immortal Boat was not suitable for his Golden Immortal breakthrough, let alone for proving himself as an Immortal King.
Once the news that he has not yet advanced to Immortal King spreads, it will shake the entire Ancient Immortal Realm, with unimaginable consequences. To challenge an Eternal Immortal King with the body of an Immortal Golden Immortal, without the aid of external forces, is something only those ninth-order quasi-Immortal Kings with eleventh-grade lotus blossoms on the Great Dao Immortal Lotus possess, and even then, they can only challenge one level higher at most; to challenge someone three levels higher is something even the legendary ninth-order quasi-Immortal Kings with twelfth-grade lotus blossoms cannot do.
At least, having absorbed the memories of hundreds or even thousands of Immortal Kings, he had never seen a quasi-Immortal King challenge a third-tier Eternal Immortal King solely through his own power. At that time, even the Primordial Immortal Emperor, who truly stood at the pinnacle of the Ancient Immortal Realm, would likely be alarmed, and the slightest misstep would result in a fate where one could neither live nor die.
The core area of the Forbidden Land of No Form, the place where the Forbidden Land of No Form once stood.
At this moment, the void surrounding this area, spanning tens of millions of years, was filled with terrifying spatial rifts. Chaotic currents flowed through these rifts, radiating an aura capable of annihilating everything. Anyone below the fifth-order Eternal Immortal King level who dared to set foot here would have their immortal body shredded and their immortal soul severely damaged within moments. The residual power of a seventh-order Eternal Immortal King, if not actively cleared away by the Spirit Void Illusionary Body, could not have been easily resolved in just tens of millions of years.
Suddenly, at the center of these spacetime rifts, a point of blue light quietly appeared, then rapidly expanded like a wildfire, transforming into a tall and imposing figure.
Dressed in green robes, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and an air of battle-hardened heroism between his brows, it was Su Mo. His gaze swept over the raging cracks around him, and his brows furrowed slightly: "Just to be on the safe side, it would be best to set up some large formations."
His status as a Golden Immortal is too special. He hasn't even broken through to the Quasi-Immortal King level, yet his combat power is comparable to a sixth-tier Eternal Immortal King. No one can predict what astonishing phenomena will occur when he breaks through. It's always better to make some preparations than to regret it later.
The next second...
Su Mo's body shone brightly, and 1,800 illusory spirit bodies emerged from his body like a tide. Each of them had a restrained aura like a deep pool, and were no different from the original Su Mo. At first glance, they did not show any signs of being powerful. Only upon closer inspection could one see the sharpness in their eyes that was of the same origin as Su Mo.
"Next, I'll trouble you fellow Daoists to set up the formation." Su Mo cupped his hands towards the illusory spirits and said with a hint of solemnity in his tone.
"I will obey the decree of this deity!"
Eighteen hundred illusory spirit bodies bowed in unison, their voices uniform and filled with unquestionable respect. Then, they dispersed like stars, their figures merging into the shadows of the void rift. One by one, fourth and fifth-grade eternal immortal artifacts were retrieved from the immortal realm—there was the Thunder-Patterned Spear of the Cloud Thunder Immortal King, its shaft wreathed in arcs of annihilating lightning; there was the Ivory Seal of the Divine Elephant Immortal King, its surface engraved with myriad totems; there was the Dragon-Patterned Token of the Martyr Immortal King, the phantom of a royal dragon on it lifelike… These treasures, once awe-inspiring in their time, now became the cores of arrays, combined under the control of the illusory spirit bodies to form profound and eternal immortal arrays.
The array patterns lit up, weaving together like a spider web, completely enveloping the void of millions of years. Even the violent spacetime rifts were temporarily imprisoned by the power of the array, as if creating an independent world in this ferocious land, isolating all internal and external senses.
......
Time flies, and a century has passed.
"almost."
Su Mo looked at the hundreds of Eternal Immortal Arrays densely packed around him and nodded slightly. These arrays were nested in layers, echoing each other, and with 1,800 illusory spirit bodies guarding the outer perimeter, "Even a ninth-order Eternal Immortal King could be held back for a while."
"Everything is ready. It's time for me to break through."
As he spoke, Su Mo took a step forward and appeared at the very center of the great formation. There lay a crimson futon wreathed in golden phoenix flames. As the flames danced, they exuded the Daoist charm of rebirth and rebirth—it was the Ancestral Phoenix Futon, a sixth-grade eternal immortal artifact bestowed upon the Yuanfeng Immortal King by the Nine Heavens Immortal King. It had a good auxiliary effect even on the cultivation of a sixth-order eternal immortal king.
With another step, Su Mo sat cross-legged on the ancestral phoenix futon. The golden phoenix flames, like gentle spirit birds, lightly licked his robes. Far from burning him, they transformed into wisps of warm comfort, seeping into his body through his pores, nourishing his immortal body and soul. The Daoist aura of rebirth flowed around him, as if draping a protective halo over his impending breakthrough, making his mind increasingly peaceful.
Then, Su Mo slowly closed his eyes, his face losing all its ripples, replaced by a solemn and dignified expression.
"Infuse this seat with the 'Primordial Chaos Undying Scripture'!"
With Su Mo's deep shout, the millions of units of Eternal Origin on the attribute panel plummeted like a burst dam, dropping to four digits in the blink of an eye.
[You began cultivating the "Primordial Chaos Undying Scripture." Thirty million cosmic eras later, you successfully entered the first level of the "Primordial Chaos Undying Scripture," and your physical body attained eternal enlightenment.]
As soon as the notification sound in my mind faded, an indescribable sense of mystery swept over my entire body, as if I had touched the eternal truth.
"Om..."
Deep within his sea of consciousness, the mysterious sphere of light shrouded in a faint mist trembled slightly, as if an ancient deity, dormant for billions of years, had opened its eyes. In an instant, a terrifying power, enough to frighten even a seventh-tier Eternal Immortal King, surged forth from the depths of his natal Immortal Domain, crashing against Su Mo's limbs and bones like a tsunami.
His bones crackled and popped, as if undergoing countless tempering processes; a faint primordial glow emanated from his immortal body, every inch of his skin becoming crystal clear under the nourishment of immense power, with faintly visible flowing golden Dao patterns; above his immortal soul, countless law runes condensed, radiating an aura that suppressed eternity. His immortal body was undergoing a qualitative transformation, breaking free from the shackles of an immortal golden immortal and leaping towards the eternal body of an eternal immortal king, every inch of his flesh and blood rejoicing.
Almost simultaneously, Su Mo's aura erupted like a torrent that had been accumulating for millions of years, rising wildly and carrying a terrifying power that could tear apart chaos and open up heaven and earth, fiercely impacting the surrounding Eternal Immortal Array.
"Buzz...buzz..."
Hundreds of Eternal Immortal Arrays trembled simultaneously, their array patterns gleaming with blinding light. The array eyes, formed from fourth- and fifth-grade Eternal Immortal Artifacts, emitted a deep hum, as if enduring unimaginable pressure. The area of the spacetime rift temporarily imprisoned by the arrays began to fluctuate, and the chaotic air currents at the edges of the rifts surged more violently. Even the independently created world trembled slightly under this force.
"It seems that we still have to take action."
The 1,800 illusory spirit bodies exchanged glances, a hint of solemnity flashing in their eyes.
next moment......
All the illusory spirits simultaneously raised their hands, and streams of pure primordial immortal power surged from their palms, flowing like streams into rivers and seas, pouring into the array eyes they controlled. The Thunder King's Thunder-Patterned Spear erupted with purplish-black lightning, the Divine Elephant King's Ivory Seal surged with chaotic mist, and the Martyr Immortal King's Dragon-Patterned Token lit up with billions of starlight... One by one, the fourth and fifth-grade eternal immortal artifacts shone brightly under the infusion of immortal power, radiating a power far exceeding that of their original owners, as if they had been given new life.
"Om - hum -"
The array patterns of hundreds of Eternal Immortal Arrays instantly solidified like iron, stabilizing the previously swaying array bases. The interwoven net of light rippled, firmly locking Su Mo's aura, which was tearing through chaos, within the array. The chaotic air currents surging at the edge of the spacetime rift were forcibly suppressed by the power of the array, and the shaking of the independent world gradually subsided. Only the pressure emanating from the center of the array continued to rise, causing the array patterns to ripple with fine waves from time to time, as if a silent struggle was taking place.
......
One hour later.
Su Mo slowly opened his tightly closed eyes. A trace of chaos flashed in his eyes at first, then they became clear and bright. Two tangible golden beams shot from the depths of his eyes into the void, tearing two brief cracks in the void. The primordial radiance surrounding him had receded into a faint halo, adhering to the surface of his immortal body. Every inch of his skin flowed with the Daoist essence of "eternity"—a mark of resonance with the laws of the immortal realm after his physical body broke through its shackles. It was warm to the touch, yet indestructible.
"Next, it's time to face that eternal tribulation!"
