Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

A gentle breeze rises, and the Milky Way appears.

Within that vast vortex spanning nearly ten million miles, amidst the boundless breeze and surging profound energy, a figure with a smile on his face slowly walked over.

In an instant, a vast galaxy stretched from the earth to the sky amidst the clear breeze and mysterious energy. The galaxy shone brightly, and the Three Realms manifested and solidified into a jade crown, while clouds and starlight condensed into a Dharma robe. In a moment, the robe and crown fell away, and the Dharma image solidified:
Wearing a crown adorned with the stars of the Three Enclosures and a robe draped with clouds and rivers from the Nine Heavens;
He wore the Eight Directions Taiwei Belt around his waist and starfish sand boots on his feet.
The stars hang down like jade pendants from the Milky Way, the wheel of destiny turns and the clouds and sky are bright;
A thousand colorful clouds drift like feathers; five-colored rays weave a purple robe.

It is said: The true Dharma of the Heavenly River stirs with mysterious mists, the sun and moon shine together to illuminate auspiciousness.

As Jinghua Zhenjun gazed at the figure emerging from the starry sky and clouds, his eyes showed neither sorrow nor joy. He silently activated the Measuring Ruler, and the identity of the newcomer became clear!

At this moment, the Taoist wearing the Three Enclosures Star Crown and the Nine Heavens Cloud River Robe had arrived in front of True Lord Jinghua. As soon as he appeared, the surrounding breeze dissolved True Lord Jinghua's overwhelming pressure without a trace.

But then he laughed and said, "The mists of the Three Enclosures lock away the subtle meaning, and the clouds and rivers of the Nine Heavens will surely illuminate the auspiciousness."

"Tianhe Zhaozhen greets Fellow Daoist Jinghua."

Upon hearing this, True Monarch Yu Feng and the others all changed color. Looking at the smiling figure of the True Monarch, they felt fear: True Monarch Taiyi Dongxuan Tianlan Zhaozhen of the Tianhe Dao Sect!

This one is also a Fifth Tribulation True Monarch!

No one expected that the person following behind those people from Cangyuan was actually this person!

Jinghua Zhenjun remained calm, revealing neither joy nor anger: "Very well, very well. Since Fellow Daoist Zhaozhen is willing to spar with me, then let's begin!"

Before he finished speaking, True Lord Jinghua raised his hand and flicked it, and five colors—blue, red, white, black, and yellow—surged out and intertwined in all directions, encompassing heaven and earth.

At the same time, True Lord Zhaozhen also unleashed five colors of light: blue, red, white, black, and yellow. The five-colored spiritual light crisscrossed like silk threads and connected with True Lord Jinghua's five energies. In an instant, a domain of dazzling five-colored spiritual light was formed. Then, with a flash of light, True Lord Zhaozhen and True Lord Jinghua disappeared without a trace!
Whether it was True Lord Yu Feng or True Lord Cang Yuan, their expressions became somewhat solemn as they gazed in the direction where the two Fifth Tribulation True Lords had disappeared: the two Fifth Tribulation True Lords were clearly about to get serious!
Jiang Sheng, who had been observing the battle from the sidelines, whispered, "Five Tribulations Domain!"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi looked at Jiang Sheng and exclaimed, "Ling Yuan, you didn't see wrong?!"

Jiang Sheng nodded: "The five-colored mysterious light moves, connecting the power of heaven and earth, and together they set off the lock of the eight wastelands, leaving no trace of the universe."

"If it's not the Five Tribulations Domain, then what is it?"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi paused for a moment, then sighed softly, "The Heavenly River Dao Sect has truly gone all out this time."

The Five Tribulations Domain is a unique divine power possessed only by the Five Tribulations True Monarch.

Although immortals in the three upper realms can open up cave heavens and establish their own dojos, and although Nascent Soul cultivators can condense supernatural domains with their Nascent Souls, a domain is different from a law domain.

The so-called domain of law is the boundary between heaven and earth, and the transformation of the Great Dao.

The Five Tribulations True Lord, with the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top and the Five Qi Converging at the Origin, can manipulate creation and reverse the universe; his supernatural powers are truly immense.

Those at this level can move all laws with a single thought and illuminate heaven and earth with a single glance. It can be said that the difference between a Five Tribulations True Monarch and a Pure Yang Dao Monarch lies in that one barrier. Once crossed, one transcends the Three Realms and is no longer bound by the Five Elements, becoming an immortal Pure Yang.

If one cannot cross this threshold, one will become a Mahayana Immortal Lord who lives as long as heaven and earth.

The Five Tribulations True Monarch's Five Tribulations Domain is formed by condensing and manifesting his own cultivation and the five elements within his body. Within the domain, the Five Tribulations True Monarch's words become the laws of heaven and earth, and his thoughts become the rules of the four seas. He can turn his hand to make clouds and rain, and is enough to suppress all enemies.

Most importantly, the Five Tribulations Domain is not in the present world, but exists between reality and illusion, invisible to heaven and earth, and difficult to find in the chaos.

The battle between the real and the illusory does not alter the rules of the present world or the laws of the universe; it is solely for suppressing the enemy and is untouched by cause and effect.

At this moment, True Lord Zhaozhen and True Lord Jinghua used the Five Tribulations Domain, which clearly showed that the two True Lords did not want to affect others and wanted to settle the matter on their own!

The vast and boundless land of Kyushu, the boundless realm between reality and illusion.

At this moment, within the realm of reality and illusion in the Nine Provinces, amidst the ethereal void between the real world and the chaotic void, boundless multicolored light surged in all directions, weaving together to form a vast and magnificent land.

On this flat, boundless, colorful glazed ground, two figures stood only ten thousand miles apart.

If a Fifth Tribulation True Monarch were to fully activate the Fifth Tribulation Domain, it would be enough to encompass a small thousand world, and even a large part of a middle thousand world.

This boundless expanse of colorful glazed land encompasses the entire Yanzhou region in the present world, which is enough to demonstrate the high level of cultivation of the two True Lords.

A gentle breeze rises, and myriad colors shine.

The two True Lords, one wearing a Yin-Yang Jade Crown and a robe of mountains and rivers of the four seas, and the other wearing a Three Enclosures Star Crown and a robe of clouds and rivers of the nine heavens, were adorned with precious ornaments and shone brightly.

In particular, the clear, moon-like Dao wheel behind the two True Lords' heads, the radiant Three Flowers Lifting the Cauldron atop their heads, and the swirling Five Elements on their chests further demonstrate the two True Lords' profound Daoist attainments.

Five Tribulations True Lord!

The two Fifth Tribulation True Monarchs stood there, facing each other for several breaths without making a move.

However, although the two True Lords did not seem to move, in the vast emptiness above, the Heavenly Storm and the Roaring Thunder and Fire were already surging and turbulent, almost staining the void for hundreds of millions of miles with two colors.

In an instant, a thunderous roar resounded, and the vast expanse of nothingness, like a sea of ​​clouds, surged and intertwined, manifesting a deep ravine out of thin air. The location of that ravine was precisely in the center where the two Fifth Tribulation True Monarchs were confronting each other.

The mere clash of their power altered the celestial phenomena across billions of miles.

Shangyu Jinghua Zhenjun said coldly, "Zhaozhen, I'm not afraid to tell you, I knew you were coming a long time ago."

However, True Monarch Tianlan Zhaozhen smiled and said, "Oh? So you mean Fellow Daoist Jinghua was prepared for this?"

Jinghua Zhenjun snorted coldly: "All who come from afar are guests. Zhaozhen, let me be the one to receive you!"

Before the words were finished, a deafening roar was heard, and a dark figure suddenly darted out from behind True Monarch Jinghua. The dark figure trod on the void with its four hooves, and with a gulp of lightning, it spewed out a burst of lightning. In an instant, its hooves stomped down, the void trembled, lightning surged, and the sky changed color.

Zhao Zhen Zhenjun raised an eyebrow and looked at the majestic spirit beast with a dragon's head, a horse's body, scales, an ox's tail, and deer antlers: "I have often heard others say that Shangyu Jinghua Zhenjun of the Tianhe Dao Sect once signed a contract with a black Qilin."

"I didn't believe it before, but now it seems to be true!"

Jinghua Zhenjun remained expressionless, merely raising his hand to point, and the black Qilin immediately came riding on water and lightning, its eyes gleaming like thunder, and spewing out a vast waterfall of lightning.

In an instant, boundless thunder crashed down, threatening to engulf True Monarch Zhaozhen.

However, True Lord Zhaozhen remained calm and composed. In an instant, just as the boundless thunder crashed down, a gentle breeze arose, sweeping away the thunder that filled the sky and annihilating it all.

Then, a cry rang out, and a figure, entirely azure with magnificent plumage and a long, piercing tail, swept over, stopping above True Monarch Zhaozhen. It spread its wings, looking arrogantly at True Monarch Jinghua and the black Qilin. True Monarch Jinghua frowned, somewhat suspicious: "A Azure Phoenix?"

True Lord Zhaozhen nodded with a smile: "Indeed, True Lord Jinghua, do you think you're the only one with a spirit beast by your side?"

"My Azure Phoenix is ​​no less impressive than your Ink Kirin!"

"Xiao Qing, I'm entrusting that black Qilin to you."

Upon hearing this, the Azure Phoenix let out a clear cry, then flapped its wings, stirring up bursts of azure flames as it rushed towards the Ink Qilin.

The black Qilin also treads on water with its four hooves, and thunder roars on its single horn, with lightning flashing and lightning streaking through the sky in an instant.

In an instant, azure flames clashed with inky thunder, and celestial winds stirred mysterious waters. The two innate deities engaged in a fierce battle between reality and illusion.

Neither True Lord Jinghua nor True Lord Zhaozhen paid attention to the battle between the two spirit beasts.

Ultimately, the real factors influencing the outcome of the battle lie with the two Fifth Tribulation True Monarchs.

Jinghua Zhenjun raised the Measuring Ruler in one hand and made a hand seal in the other: "It is said that half of the Azure Phoenix is ​​in the Zhu Ming Realm and half in the Kunlun Realm. I thought that only people from the Yaochi Holy Land had Azure Phoenixes as companions. I didn't expect that you, Zhaozhen, also have an Azure Phoenix."

"Interesting, interesting."

Despite saying this, Jinghua Zhenjun showed no interest whatsoever. With a wave of his hand, he suddenly unleashed the Measuring Ruler, and beams of light swept across the vast expanse, transforming into chaotic shadows that fell from all directions, trapping and killing Zhaozhen Zhenjun.

True Monarch Zhaozhen remained calm and composed, using hand seals to connect with the power of the Great Dao. A vast starry river suddenly appeared in the void, its expansiveness accompanied by surging azure mists. With a flick of his hand, True Monarch Zhaozhen unleashed a celestial radiance from the boundless starry river, instantly darkening the heavens and earth. The power of this celestial radiance connected the entire starry river, causing the space between reality and illusion to tremble incessantly.

The mystical light of the ruler-shaped shadows activated by True Monarch Jinghua collapsed in half on the spot under this celestial radiance, and the remaining light that fell beside True Monarch Zhaozhen was blocked by the spiritual light emitted by the Nine Heavens Cloud River Robe.

The Nine Heavens Cloud River Robe is no ordinary magical artifact; it is the robe of True Lord Zhaozhen, a genuine magical treasure.

As the spiritual light emitted by the Nine Heavens Cloud River Robe blocked the mysterious light of Jinghua Zhenjun's ruler, Zhaozhen Zhenjun raised his hand and pointed. The Nine Heavens Cloud River engraved on the robe came to life. In an instant, the Nine Heavens Mystic Movement and the vast Cloud River formed a Nine Heavens Cloud River Array that covered the sky and encompassed all directions.

However, just as the Nine Heavens Cloud River Formation was about to land on Jinghua Zhenjun's head, Jinghua Zhenjun snorted coldly, and the Four Seas Mountains and Rivers Robe on his body emitted rays of light. The majestic mountains and rivers and the vast Four Seas depicted on it came to life and formed a vast landscape of mountains, rivers and seas, which collided head-on with the Nine Heavens Cloud River.

In an instant, the robes and supernatural powers of the two Fifth Tribulation True Monarchs clashed, causing the entire space between reality and illusion to tremble.

Immediately afterwards, the Three Enclosures Star Crown on the head of True Lord Zhaozhen shone with starlight, and beams of starlight shot into the sky, transforming into the image of the Three Enclosures Star Sea.

The sky was filled with surging stars, the Three Enclosures hung high in the sea of ​​stars, and the True Lord Zhaozhen had three dazzling flowers flowing above his head, five powerful energies forming a ball in his chest, and his eyes shining with golden light. With a wave of his hand, a foot-long treasure map slowly unfolded.

This precious map depicts countless valleys and the vast sky, with countless stars engraved on it. The materials used to make it are made from star wire antennas, which shows how valuable it is.

This treasure map is none other than the natal magic weapon of True Lord Zhaozhen: the Starfall Myriad Valleys Map!

At this moment, the Starfall Myriad Valleys Diagram was summoned by True Lord Zhaozhen, who laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist Jinghua, let's fight this move!"

In an instant, the Starfall Myriad Valleys Map suddenly burst forth with an endless torrent of starlight, and vast stardust gushed out as if an endless sea of ​​stars was about to crush the entire space between reality and illusion. At the same time, starlight and raging fire burned in all directions, devouring the vastness of heaven and earth.

Jinghua Zhenjun was caught off guard and was swept into the stardust and flames, disappearing without a trace.

Yanzhou, Wanshou Immortal Palace.

When that mysterious light pierced the heavens and the earth, illuminating the four directions of the universe, in the Longevity Immortal Palace, the Purple Response Longevity Immortal Lord looked at the mysterious light rising from Maple Valley. His expression was not solemn at all, but rather relieved: the Heavenly River Dao Sect has made its move, which is a good thing.

"The Ming generation of the Tianhe Dao Sect has caused quite a stir, and those two juniors, Qinghua and Penglai, are you just going to sit idly by and watch them wreak havoc in Yanzhou?"

A clear and melodious Daoist voice came from behind the Immortal Lord of Longevity, and then a handsome figure stepped forward. His figure was as straight as a pine tree, wearing a brocade robe, a jade crown, and a golden seal, with a jade ribbon and colorful sash flowing like rosy clouds.

His gaze was sharp as he looked calmly at the towering pillar of light, one hand behind his back and the other gently scratching the head of a small beast.

It was clear that the little beast had a single horn on its head, a tiger-like face, and was shaking its head and rubbing against the Taoist's robes, which was quite cute, but this was only the appearance.

This single-horned spirit beast is named Tianlu, a jade pixiu with a single horn, while the handsome Taoist is Qianxuan Lingfeng Zhenjun.

No one expected that this Fifth Tribulation True Monarch of the Feng generation of the Qiankun Dao Sect would appear in the Longevity Immortal Palace at this time.

"A good outcome is desirable; dragging it out would only cause anxiety and uncertainty."

"Now that they've left the field, I'm actually relieved."

Immortal Lord Wanshou spoke softly, a smile in his eyes: "Given the current state of the Heavenly River Dao Sect, can Kongdong and Huayun still maintain their current superficial alliance with us?"

"These people from the Mountain and River Dao Sect are not only targeting our Qiankun Dao Sect. Even if Kongdong and Huayun want to escape, the Mountain and River Dao Sect will not let them go."

"The fate of the Tianhe Dao Sect is actually a good thing for us. If we don't put some pressure on those people, they'll still be thinking of watching from the sidelines."

Lingfeng Zhenjun glanced at Wanshou Xianjun and said softly, "Immortal Lord, with the current state of Tianhe Dao Sect, the situation in our Yanzhou may be in dire straits."

The Immortal Lord of Longevity laughed heartily: "It certainly wouldn't come to this, it certainly wouldn't come to this!"

"Even if the Heavenly River Dao Sect intervenes, at most those who enter will be at the Mahayana stage. As long as they are not at the Pure Yang stage, Yanzhou will not be able to turn the world upside down."

As he spoke, the Immortal Lord of Longevity produced a small and exquisite glass cauldron. With a casual flick of his wrist, the glass cauldron emitted a dazzling light that illuminated the entire palace. Within that light, the mountains, rivers, and ley lines of the entire Yan Province, as well as the Dao Palaces and Immortal Halls, all appeared one by one.

A glint flashed in Lingfeng Zhenjun's eyes: The Mountain and River Sun and Moon Cauldron, the natal immortal treasure of Ziying Wanshou Immortal Lord!
This Mahayana celestial treasure is the treasure of the Purple Response Longevity Immortal Lord's attainment of enlightenment. It contains a world within it, encompassing the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and seas.

Lingfeng Zhenjun had no idea that the entire Yanzhou seemed to be inside the Mountain and River Sun and Moon Cauldron.

But the Immortal Lord of Longevity said quietly, "Ling Feng, you should go to Maple Valley. While we should make the Heavenly River Dao Sect intervene, we can't just sit by and watch Fu Feng and the others go to their deaths. Jing Hua is alone in the north; I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on."

Lingfeng Zhenjun nodded and softly called out, "Tianlu".

As the jade Pixiu shook its head, its body swelled to a size of ten feet. True Monarch Lingfeng flipped onto the Pixiu's back, and the jade Pixiu rode away through the air on its four hooves.

Watching Lingfeng Zhenjun depart, Wanshou Xianjun gazed at the Mountain and River Sun and Moon Cauldron before him, his eyes flickering with uncertain light:
"Why is it that I calculated so many things, but missed that one?" (End of Chapter)
