Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension Chapter 1477 - 799: Glorious Deeds of Creation!
Previously on Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension...
Deep within the chaotic void, a colossal figure towering like a mountain slowly parted the skies and the ground.
As the dawn of creation unfolded, pristine essence ascended step by step, shaping into countless spiritual clouds. The vast sea of clouds churned and clashed, ultimately forging the initial bolt of primordial thunder.
That thunder boomed across the cosmos, shaking the elements of soil, liquid, air, and blaze.
The sinking impure qi abruptly gathered in emptiness, forming the very first chunk of soil and rock, which expanded swiftly, soon becoming a solid continent.
A blaze ignited, dropping onto the terrain, turning into a raging inferno that scorched the surface and gave rise to lakes of bubbling lava.
Flashes of lightning crashed down, igniting roaring fires, while gusts of wind arose, rapidly forming a whirlwind tempest that ravaged every corner.
The winds fueled the flames, surging toward the heavenly canopy, where the fierce blaze's force pierced the cloud layer, instantly producing huge amounts of steam that turned into a heavy rainstorm cascading from above.
Amid the misty downpour, the enormous being upholding the cosmos grew fainter and more indistinct, then slowly broke apart, dissolving into a brilliant expanse that blended seamlessly into this nascent universe...
Farther out, within the Divine Palace Heaven.
The instant his Primordial Spirit fused with the cosmos, Zhao Sheng, seated in meditative pose amid the emptiness, let out a sudden low cry. Spiritual glow surged once more from his crown, birthing another Primordial Spirit that swiftly floated into that primordial chaos.
By now, as the world took shape, the basics of earth, water, wind, and fire had surfaced, with the Heavenly Dao activating and weaving together, starting to enforce the structure of this realm.
"Zhao Sheng" entered this domain, promptly expanding his awareness, linking directly to the cosmic principles one after another, and at once becoming the ruler of the heavens and earth.
His comprehensions flowed into the world, causing myriad Daoist principles to appear from nothing, rapidly progressing from basic to intricate, then from intricate to profound, bringing forth endless patterns of harmony and disorder.
Gradually,
Streams carved through the terrain, meandering to its borders, steadily pooling into a vast sea.
Gradually,
Across the desolate ground, spots of verdant life sprouted, with innumerable tender shoots piercing the soil, swiftly maturing into expansive carpets of moss and plants.
Gradually,
The Cave Heaven Crystal Wall morphed into a boundless heavenly vault, celestial bodies twinkled into being from the abyss, forming a magnificent Milky Way.
Gradually,
The second Primordial Spirit fully integrated into this realm too, marking the point where the Cave Heaven Law reached equilibrium, and the heavenly cycle flowed without hindrance.
Right as the Cave Heaven finished forming, the Five Elements Thunder Tribulation struck at last!
Suddenly, over Zhao Sheng's crown, an immense Black Hole materialized from thin air, radiating an infinite sense of annihilation.
Zhao Xuanjing saw the spectacle and paled instantly, vanishing in a flash to a spot tens of thousands of li distant, compressing his presence to its utmost, as still as a boulder.
At the same time, from the Black Hole's core, a brilliance erupted, a millionfold brighter than the sun—a multicolored surge of thunderbolts, laden with total devastation, came crashing down in a flood.
In a blink, Zhao Sheng vanished under the multicolored deluge, the fresh Grotto Heaven Halo alongside him, devoured by the lightning storm.
Now, the young Cave Heaven confronted its ultimate test!
Myriad Five Elements Divine Thunders poured like a cascade onto the Cave Heaven Crystal Wall, unleashing force that could shatter the world.
The Five Elements Divine Thunder acted with uncanny intelligence, zeroing in on spots where the laws faltered, pounding them without mercy.
Soon enough, the Cave Heaven Crystal Wall sported multiple gaping breaches from the assault.
At this instant, the firmament shattered!
At this instant, Zhao Sheng resembled Nuwa mending the skies, pushing his spirit to heights never before reached, fracturing his mind into a million streams of thought. He commanded countless Daoist laws at once, weaving shields nonstop, sealing cracks endlessly, and striving to uphold the law's rhythm.
All the while, Zhao Sheng's physical form unleashed its maximum might, his body expanding into a golden colossus forty-nine zhang tall.
The golden titan stood amid the electric fury, his body dissolving and reforming with unyielding vigor, embodying destruction and rebirth in stark display right then.
Zhao Sheng shaped hand seals, blending his Mana, Primordial Spirit, and intent into unity, abruptly turning into a bolt of lightning that dove into the Five Thunder Ring beneath.
The Five Thunder Ring quivered faintly, then erupted in dazzling radiance.
The very next instant, the multicolored flood halted, then incredibly parted down the middle, with nearly seventy percent of the thunder flow veering off to plunge into the Five Thunder Ring, getting devoured in a rush.
The leftover thirty percent of the Five Elements Divine Thunder condensed into a multicolored lightning cascade roughly a li across, "cascading" onto the golden titan, wounding but not slaying, its destructive edge sharply diminished.
...
When the Five Elements Thunder Tribulation first manifested, its blinding glow not only lit up the shadowy, hushed Divine Palace Heaven but also roused several mighty experts stationed at the Grand Formation's key points.
Billions of li off, inside an eight-sided stone gazebo, an elderly Daoist deep in his brushwork and inscriptions abruptly lifted his gaze, staring in a particular direction, as if catching a flicker of lightning in the gloom's heart.
"Fascinating, fascinating! Is that yet another comrade facing the tribulation? I have to go see the spectacle!"
His words barely ended when the eight-sided stone gazebo vanished from its place.
To the southwest, tens of thousands of li away, the emptiness lay in tranquil obscurity, yet now something stirred from deep repose. A crimson spark leaped from the void, from which a stooped elder emerged.
The stooped elder let out a raspy laugh, striding toward a specific void spot, each step bridging billions of li across time and space, nearly matching a warp through dimensions.
...
Tens of thousands of li distant.
A enormous five-taloned True Dragon twisted through the emptiness, with Zhao Xuanjing perched on the Dragon's head, one hand clutching a horn, the other wielding the Mystic Yellow Giant Axe, watching the far-off multicolored flood with deep concern.
Abruptly, his face twisted, whipping around to glare at the emptiness behind, bellowing sharply, "Who's there? Show yourself!"
