Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1117 - 399: Heaven and Earth Killing Tribulation, Virtue Aligns with the Throne

"Yan disdains deceiving you."

In the Inner World, Wuzhou analyzed for Jing Qiu,

"Even figures like Mu Shitian, Yan disdains using deception to achieve his goals."

"A True Saint has the full ability to see the Fate Veins of beings below the rank of Heavenly Venerable."

"Even though your situation is special, connected somehow to the Bitter Sea, your fate is obscure, Yan might still glimpse a fragment of your future through the Time River."

Wuzhou said with interest, "But why the Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth? A distinguished World Venerable shouldering the Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth indeed is worth anticipating."

In the Inner Heaven and Earth, Jing Qiu sat cross-legged in the Void, surrounded by large holes and voids, where Yan's Sword Intent lingered and intertwined, forming Sword Intent Vortexes.

This battle had traversed from the Heart Image World all the way to the Inner Heaven and Earth, leaving Jing Qiu with significant losses.

For instance, these remaining Sword Intents obstructed the recovery of his Inner Heaven and Earth. He attempted to dispel them but found it extremely exhausting, requiring time, yet it also counted as a form of cultivation.

Each expulsion was tantamount to a collision with the Death Demon Sword Intent.

This battle ultimately ended with him enduring to the last.

"Still too forced, the gap between the realms is too great, and I was forced to step up to the Second Layer Heaven during the fight..."

Jing Qiu muttered to himself while repairing his Inner Heaven and Earth.

Despite the heavy losses, this battle let him glimpse the peaks of the Heavenly King Domain.

However, the Death Demon's last words left him somewhat concerned.

The Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth?

When the heavens stir up deadly intentions, stars are shifted.

When the earth stirs up deadly intentions, dragons and serpents emerge.

When humans stir up deadly intentions, heaven and earth are overturned.

What kind of Killing Tribulation did the Death Demon see?

Enduring the Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth is also a form of "Harmonization of Heaven and Earth," and during the Tribulation Period, it is the pinnacle, unmatched in terms of harmonization.

Its killing power and the Daoist career's amplification depend on the strength of the realm.

Theoretically, an "ordinary" True Saint, who hasn't even consolidated their own timeline, once endured the Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, not to mention the Ancient, even an entity of the Five Pillars level would have the risk of falling before it.

The Death Demon made his early fortune with the Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, at the True Saint Peak, receiving the Killing Tribulation, wreaking havoc in his domain, reportedly killing over twenty True Saints in just that one battle!

The slaughters induced by the Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth carry no possibility of return; Dao extinguished, time forgotten, fate dissipated, all traces of existence will vanish from the world.

According to Wuzhou, even the Ancient, before Yan at that time, was just a single sword.

At that time, he could be entirely considered a Transcender.

During the mid-late stages of that Killing Tribulation, the Death Demon indeed stepped into the transcendence level as he wished.

However, as the Killing Tribulation faded and the cosmos returned to chaos, the Daoist career that relied entirely on the Killing Tribulation inevitably began to decline.

Thinking of this, Jing Qiu frowned.

The Death Demon foresaw the day he would endure the Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth.

But the question remains, when and where?

He is presently a newly minted Heavenly King; even if he endures the Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, he can at most withstand the Dao Power amplification of some small heaven and earth.

For a Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth at the level of the Great Universe, he is not yet qualified.

Even if the Great Universe was willing, he too would be pulverized in an instant.

"Could it be that later on I will harmonize with the Nether Sea?" Jing Qiu mused.

"If you can indeed endure the Killing Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, it would actually be a good thing for you right now," Hel reminded him.

Jing Qiu nodded, having a rough understanding of the "benefits" Hel was referring to.

The benefits were similar to what he had experienced while harmonizing with the Opening of the Heaven World, briefly aligning with the Heavenly Will of the Great Universe.

One reason he chose the path of the Opening the World was—

To witness the Primordial Limitless from the All Phenomena Return to One, the time consumed in cultivating this Illusion Dao far exceeded expectations.

In the short time of harmonizing with the Great Universe, the Primordial Limitless he needed at least a century to forge, and his No Heaven clone, transitioning from All Phenomena Return to One to the End of All Phenomena, were completed in that instant with the help of harmonizing with the Great Universe.

Completing the construction of an Illusion Dao is akin to theoretical design and calculation, requiring the computation of various parameters and data, while harmonization acts like borrowing a large computer's computing power...

However, if possible, Jing Qiu would prefer not to take this path.

Conducting massacres in various realms would entail accumulating much karma and sinful karma.

After a brief rest, Jing Qiu exited the Heart Image World.

"Anquan?"

The counterattack belonging to Yan was temporarily on hold.

Returning to the rear, Jing Qiu found Ji Anquan had also arrived.

"Jing Qiu." Ji Anquan smiled, showing her teeth, "Good news, we've got the latest news about your grandfather."

"Oh?" Jing Qiu's expression shifted, "He should be in the Outer Realm now, right?"

"Yes, Senior Ji has joined the Mayfly Palace in the Transcendence Gate," Ji Anquan nodded. "Moreover, not long ago, a disciple of the Mayfly Palace named An Xuran visited with news about the 'Tao Struggle'..."

After hearing Ji Anquan's news, Jing Qiu shook his head slightly: "I am about to head to the Qingliu Sky with Senior Chi, and for now, I don't have time to participate in those transcendence gate's Tao Struggles."

Ji Anquan's eyes showed a strange look: "I rather think you might be heading to the same place. The location for the Tao Struggle often gets selected in a dilapidated realm."

Jing Qiu was surprised, thinking it's quite possible.

Mainly, if Ji Anquan said so, it's about eighty percent true.

In that case, won't he be able to run into his grandfather in the Qingliu Sky?

He wondered if his grandfather had advanced to Heavenly King...

Even though Jing Qiu has come so far, having weathered over twenty years of trials, he still can't forget the words his grandfather left at the time of parting on the East Three Bright Star.
