After the mountain disappeared, a few monts passed before the new Heavenly Tribulation began to take form.
But rather than from the sky, it ca from the ground.
The Heavenly Tribulation was the will of the heavens.
But this didn't an that only attacks that fell from the heavens were Heavenly Tribulations. On the contrary, when the Heavenly Tribulations began, anything in the world could beco one.
It represented the wrath of the heavens, the rejection of the usurper.
A gust blew past.
Grass suddenly began to grow on the ground where Tang Jie was standing, rapidly growing into huge trees, creating a dense forest that completely enclosed Tang Jie.
These countless trees swayed in unison in a majestic sight, their branches turning into arms, their wooden fists pumling Tang Jie. So trees even grew mouths and feet, running at Tang Jie and opening their tooth-filled maws.
But Tang Jie was unmoved.
The Primal Infant hid in his body and continued to evolve, the phenona in the heavens continuing. anwhile, Tang Jie faced the trees and simply said, "Go."
The Pale Cloud Fla bird again flew out, transforming into a sea of fire to burn away the trees.
Such was the power of the Pale Cloud Fla that the trees were burned to cinders before they could get close.
Sitting in the sea of fire, Tang Jie picked up a flower and smiled.
In this seemingly casual movent, he was actually analyzing the power of the Wood Elent, greedily absorbing every bit of experience and every principle of the Dao that he could.
The Pale Cloud Fla had once more easily blocked a tribulation.
Next was the tal Tribulation.
Countless weapons of various shapes and sizes began to manifest in the air.
Although these weapons were made from illusions, as they were made with tal Elent energy, each one beca real once they manifested.
Once they had all manifested, they threw themselves at Tang Jie.
But the way Tang Jie dealt with them was even simpler than before.
He extended a finger and shouted, "Break!"
There was a great shattering.
All the weapons shattered, transforming into golden grains that flew toward Tang Jie.
These weapons had been ford directly from tal Elent energy through the power of the Heavenly Dao. No cultivator had refined them, nor were there seals to protect them. They could be called the most basic of weapons, which was why the Weapon Mantra could so easily destroy them. He had destroyed all of them with one shout, finally emulating so of the Martial Lord's deanor.
"What sort of spell art is this?" The cultivators down below gasped in shock.
"The Weapon Mantra," a voice softly said.
The crowd turned to see Xu Miaoran elegantly standing nearby. She was looking up at her husband, her eyes thick with love.
When the cultivators saw that Xu Miaoran had co over, they all backed away.
The crowd opening up a path for her, Xu Miaoran walked through, like the moon ringed by the stars.
"Fairy, might I ask what exactly the Weapon Mantra is?" soone asked.
Xu Miaoran casually replied, "A divine spell from High Antiquity, an art of the Great Dao."
As Tang Jie grew stronger and stronger, it beca less necessary to keep things secret. Even the Weapon Mantra could be made known.
Everyone cried out in surprise, realizing that this must be sothing Tang Jie had obtained from those ruins from High Antiquity. They heaved heavy sighs while also joking about how Godhead Palace's efforts of many years had ultimately only benefited Tang Jie.
The Heavenly Tribulations continued.
After the tal Tribulation, a powerful storm began to blow.
The Wind Tribulation.
This was no ordinary wind, but the Gold Ignis Astral Winds brought down from beyond the heavens.
This dazzling golden wind was the fence that penned in the world, and also the wall that protected it.
As it howled down from above, its boundless might terrified all the cultivators down below, who backed away for fear that they might be caught up in it, and they looked at Tang Jie in sympathy.
The Gold Ignis Astral Wind! The seventh Heavenly Tribulation was the Gold Ignis Astral Winds! It was evident that Tang Jie's ambitions had particularly incensed the heavens.
But these Gold Ignis Astral Winds could still do nothing to Tang Jie.
Tang Jie had been borrowing the Astral Winds to temper himself, and he had long ago reached a refined state. Although he couldn't break out from the Astral Winds and leave the domain like Earth Immortals, he could endure them for a ti without a problem. While the golden wind tribulation was strong, it was simply one sliver of Astral Winds brought down to the lower world. Without a continuous stream of power, it was impossible for it to destroy Tang Jie.
Tang Jie proudly faced the Astral Winds, and despite their savagery, he treated them like a gentle breeze.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Just like that, Tang Jie had endured the Gold Ignis Astral Winds.
As if sensing Tang Jie's contempt, the sky let out a guttural roar of rage.
The howling of beasts ca from all around, and countless fiends erged, brimming with the might of the heavens.
These fiends had been manifested by the world, and bearing the will of the heavens, they wielded a pure energy that could take on any form.
The beasts all charged at Tang Jie.
Even a Violet Palace Titan would have to be careful when dealing with so many fiends, let alone one at a key mont in their charge at Deification. But Tang Jie was fearless, smiling as he threw out the Mountain River State Diagram.
The Mountain River State Diagram transford into a vast world in the sky, and the fiends mindlessly charged into this world. The mont they appeared in the diagram world, the power of the small world transford into the most lethal traps and began to eliminate the fiends.
This was combatting the will of the heavens with the will of the heavens, using a small world to fight back against a large world. Despite the difference in size, one was using all the strength it had while the other was using a drop from an ocean, so in this contest, the large world was defeated. The countless fiends were devoured, absorbed, and digested by the small world, converted into their most fundantal energy to nurture the diagram world. Tang Jie swiftly put away the diagram before the Heavenly Tribulation could react—the small world was not complete and had too many flaws, so this action had been extrely risky. It was only effective when dealing with the Heavenly Tribulations. If he had used it to deal with a cultivator of the sa level, they would quickly notice the flaws and attack them, which would make the costs outweigh the benefits.
The Fiend Tribulation had been easily taken care of. Not only had it failed to hurt him, it had actually enriched him.
Although all cultivators who had made the charge at Deification would use the Heavenly Tribulations to temper themselves, none of them had ever been so thorough about it.
The will of the heavens was furious. Eight tribulations had done nothing!
The heavens shifted again, white and black erging.
Ling Xiao and Xiao Biehan looked up at the sky and muttered, "The Yin Yang Tribulation is about to begin."
The last of the Nine Heavenly Tribulations was the Yin Yang Tribulation.
All diatric pairs in the world would appear in the Yin Yang Tribulation: Life and Death, Light and Dark, Black and White, Illusory and Real, Cold and Hot. All of this would be converted into the most fundantal Yin Yang energy, creating a Heavenly Law Seal Yin Yang Wheel that would crush the target to death.
This was the strongest and most terrifying of the Nine Heavenly Tribulations.
Ling Xiao and Xiao Biehan had both needed to expend nurous treasures to just barely fend off this tribulation, and even then, they had failed nurous tis. After surviving the Heavenly Tribulation, they had to start over, and it was only after gaining so experience that they had succeeded.
Tang Jie was attempting to reach Deification in a single try, so he would have a much harder ti of it.
The Yin Yang power of the world had gathered. Because it was the world bringing this power together, Tang Jie couldn't move proactively and try to dispel it beforehand, only quietly wait. As more and more Yin Yang energy gathered, it began to arrange itself as if a pair of invisible hands was drawing in the sky, and eventually, it turned into a giant wheel, black and white, appearing rather like the Taiji Diagram.
After this wheel ford, it began to turn, exuding such majestic energy that all cultivators below Violet Palace had to retreat, and only when they had retreated fifty kiloters did they finally feel at ease.
But Tang Jie appeared indifferent in comparison.
He stood up and placed his hands behind his back, looking up at the heavens as if he was challenging the tribulation to co down. The spectating cultivators sighed in admiration, comnting on how this person was completely different from before, possessing his own majesty and grace.
They had no idea that Tang Jie was internally reeling in shock.
Through the Dao of Wisdom, he was analyzing the Heavenly Law Seal Yin Yang Wheel, and the more he analyzed it, the more stunned he beca.
The vastness of the Dao power contained in the Yin Yang Wheel was such that Tang Jie felt like his depth of understanding in the Yin Yang Dao was the size of a tiny ant. It was like a boy who had studied for several years suddenly walking into the hall of a sage.
But Tang Jie didn't feel humbled or panicked. Rather, after his mont of shock, he beca even more anxious to analyze the deeper secrets of the Yin Yang Dao hidden within the wheel.
As Tang Jie's understanding of the Yin Yang Dao grew, his Yin Yang energy grew even more profound.
He could have used the Dao of Fate to weaken the Heavenly Tribulation, but after his realization, he instead used the Dao of Fate to provoke the heavens. The wrathful heavens began to gather even more energy to make the wheel more powerful, thus extending the ti needed to complete it. Tang Jie seized the mont to greedily drink up this knowledge, caring nothing for his safety—after all, Yun Tianlan was protecting him, so what did he have to be afraid of?
Thus, everyone saw the Yin Yang Wheel growing larger and larger, and they began to wonder why it wasn't falling yet. Even Ling Xiao and Xiao Biehan were confused, worrying over whether this Heavenly Tribulation was trying to play so sort of trick.
Soone even blindly speculated, "The Freedom Celestial Sovereign has a rather fine na. Tang Jie, Tang Jie—could it an to stall (tui tang) the Heavenly Tribulation (jie)?"
This earned him many rolled eyes.
Tang Jie's body began to change.
The concentration of Yin Yang power made him stronger and stronger, Yin Yang Dao Standards swiftly forming, even his Reflections of Floating Life Dao Art being enhanced.
And Tang Jie finally began to comprehend the secrets within the Yin Yang Wheel.
As he analyzed the secrets, the Flesh Millstone suddenly erged from Tang Jie's body. It seed like Tang Jie was using the structure of the Yin Yang Wheel to improve the Flesh Millstone, which left everyone speechless. Other people had to put all their energy into reaching Deification, acting cautiously with every step, but Tang Jie was putting all his energy into using this opportunity to get stronger.
The wheel in the sky finally stopped turning and plumted downward.
Tang Jie laughed. "Let's use this Yin Yang energy to give this god the last bit of essence I need."
His body grew larger once more.
In a flash, he was a giant, radiating a golden light as he threw a punch at the Yin Yang Wheel.
Offense was the best defense.
"Open!" Tang Jie let out the most majestic and intimidating roar of his life.
All the heavens trembled at his cry!
