The Legend of the Great Saint: Start from the Sign-in at Mount Tai

Chapter 484 Everyone Undergoes Tribulation, Little Peng King Becomes a Saint

The ancient Taoist temple exudes a wild and untamed atmosphere, with towering ancient trees, roaring beasts, and golden roc and phoenix soaring through the sky—a magnificent and expansive landscape.

Ancient medicinal herbs abound here, rare flowers bloom in abundance, and spiritual springs gush forth. In some places, the spiritual energy is so concentrated that it has even liquefied.

"Gentlemen, what do you mean by this?"

"What do you want to do?"

Why are you blocking my way?

Seeing the dozen or so people who suddenly rushed in from afar, clearly with ill intentions, and who surrounded her from all sides, Hongluan's eyes flashed, and she asked them what their purpose was.

She stood on the back of a five-colored phoenix, her long black hair cascading down like a waterfall. She wore a phoenix hairpin and a red dress that clung to her curvaceous body, making her already graceful and slender figure even more alluring.

In the sunlight, Hongluan's exposed skin, visible beneath her dress, was radiantly white and as delicate as a baby's skin.

She was a beautiful woman who, though not as beautiful as Qing Shi, was by no means inferior to Ling'er.

Faced with this group of ill-intentioned people who suddenly appeared, Hongluan showed no fear or surprise. Instead, her red lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of a smile, and her beautiful eyes sparkled with a touch of mockery.

It seemed she had already sensed that this trial would not be peaceful and that she would encounter something similar.

What do we want to do?

"Hey hey hey"

"She really is a stunningly beautiful woman, so lovely I feel sorry for her!"

"It's just a pity, you were such a beautiful woman, why did you have to become a thief?"

Among those surrounding Hongluan, one man reverted to his old habit after Hongluan finished speaking. He chuckled lewdly, and as he laughed, he seemed to start to feel sorry for Hongluan again.

But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by someone who seemed to have little patience.

"Alright! Second brother!"

"Now is not the time for you to be lustful!"

"Once you've won her over, you can do whatever you want with her!"

"Brothers, follow me and kill!"

As he spoke, the burly man who seemed to be the leader of the group revealed a fierce look in his eyes, summoned a large net that shimmered with divine light, and led the attack towards Hongluan.

He clearly held considerable authority among this group of scions of prominent families.

As soon as he moved, the others followed suit, unleashing various treasures and employing a variety of offensive techniques, all attacking Hongluan together.

It was clear, however, that they only intended to capture Hongluan, and did not intend to kill her immediately.

During their attack, this group held back a considerable amount of strength.

However, they underestimated Hongluan.

An hour later, on this devastated battlefield, several mutilated corpses lay scattered about.

In addition, three other people were seriously injured.

They were bound by a golden Immortal Binding Lock, which sealed away all their cultivation.

At this moment, they are no different from ordinary people.

This Immortal Lock obviously couldn't possibly bind even an immortal.

However, it is an extremely powerful sacred artifact, one of the essential treasures of the lineage to which Hongluan belongs.

It has been carried by Hongluan for many years.

After tea time.

Hongluan had already obtained all the information she wanted from the prisoners she had deliberately left behind.

The group that attacked her were all scions of prominent families from the Second City.

From the moment Hongluan entered the city until this trial, they had always stayed with Baxian, remaining with him in the Guiding Envoy's residence.

They then concluded that Hongluan and Baxian were in cahoots.

She might even be Ba Xian's woman.

Therefore, they conceived the idea of ​​kidnapping Hongluan to blackmail Baxian into handing over the Source of Dao to them.

As a result, they underestimated Hongluan's combat power, and they did not expect that Hongluan actually carried several sacred artifacts and a forbidden artifact that Baxian had casually given to her.

This led to them being defeated by Hongluan despite their thorough preparations.

After figuring out all of this, Hongluan killed the remaining three people as well.

Then, she glanced at the figures in the distant mountains who had witnessed her counterattack against the attackers, and with a flash, she left the battlefield, which was riddled with holes from the fierce battle.

Long after Hongluan had left, some figures, filled with shock, stepped into the battlefield.

Looking at those who were once famous in the Second City, now turned into cold, mangled corpses.

Those who came to check couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Most of them were also scions of prominent families in the Second City.

They also set their sights on Hongluan, wanting to obtain the Source of the Dao.

However, their actions were a step behind those who were called the second-in-command.

This also saved their lives by sheer luck.

In other locations of the Taigu Dojo.

Needless to say, whether it's Lu Zhou, Kane, or the Golden-Winged Roc King.
All those who attacked them had long been swiftly and decisively killed by Lu Zhou and his group.

It is worth mentioning that Yan Chifeng, who was about to attack Lu Zhou, was able to escape from the clutches of the Holy Spirit Dragon because he had a substitution technique.

Lu Zhou didn't take this matter to heart.

Those who dare to draw their knives at him never end well.

It's just a matter of letting Yan Chifeng live a little longer, so that his whole family can go on their way together and not be too lonely on the road to the underworld.

Similarly, the scenes of Lu Zhou and his companions fighting back against the attackers were also witnessed by some people from afar.

This shocked many people who had no idea about the true combat strength of Ba Xian and the others.

In the square of the second human city.

The face of the Grand Commander Yu Han had long since turned ashen.

An ancient mirror floated in front of him.

This ancient mirror is an ancient artifact that controls that ancient Daoist field, and can mobilize the power of heaven and earth within the ancient Daoist field.

That ancient Daoist temple possesses immense power.

In addition, the person who possesses this ancient mirror can also see some things within the ancient Taoist temple through it.

For the past few days, Yu Han has been secretly observing the situation inside the Ancient Daoist Temple through this ancient mirror.

Yu Han witnessed every scene of Lu Zhou and his team fighting back against the attackers.

"A bunch of trash!"

Yu Han snorted coldly!
He berated Yan Chifeng and the other scions of noble families, calling them all a bunch of good-for-nothings.

"With so many people, it's one thing to be unable to defeat that Tyrant Immortal, but you can't even take down his followers and a woman. What use are you all?"

What infuriated Yu Han the most was...

Despite their efforts, Yan Chifeng and the others were unable to force Ba Xian to take action personally.

But the holy dragon beneath him swiftly and decisively wiped out all the invaders.

In Yu Han's view, Yan Chifeng and the others were beyond being described as nothing more than trash.

"I hope those few alien races of unknown origin won't end up like Yan Chifeng and his bunch of good-for-nothings, failing to live up to my expectations."

Clearly, even if Ye Fan, who had obtained the source of the Dao, was replaced by the overlord immortal Lu Zhou.

In some cases, it still follows a certain trajectory.

The underlings sent by Emperor Tian, ​​having failed to obtain the Source of the Dao through more lenient means,

Just as mentioned in the original work, before the trial of the Ancient Dojo was to begin, they approached Yu Han, who could cover their secret entry into the Ancient Dojo.

Yu Han, however, still planned to play the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

He had already thought of the script.

When those alien races seize the Source of Dao from Lu Zhou, or when they are both severely injured by Lu Zhou.

He then dispatched his trusted subordinates, armed with the ancient mirror that could unleash immense power within the ancient training grounds, to storm the training grounds and ambush the enemy from behind.

They slaughtered Lu Zhou and all those alien races, destroying their bodies and erasing all traces.

At that time, he will be able to obtain the source of the Dao.

pity!

It's often said that imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel!

This time is no exception.

Several more days passed, and Kane, Golden-Winged Roc King, and even Hongluan had all reunited with Lu Zhou.

Not long after they reunited, Di Tian's few alien underlings finally caught up with Lu Zhou, who had been wandering around aimlessly since entering the Ancient Dojo. Upon seeing this, Yu Han, who was outside the Ancient Dojo, was greatly shocked.

At the same time, he immediately ordered his trusted soldiers to take the ancient mirror and rush to the location of Lu Zhou and others at the Taigu Daoist Temple to act according to the situation.

"You must seize the Source of the Dao for me!"

"Remember to clean up the mess thoroughly. Keep an eye on those alien creatures; I have a feeling they possess incredibly powerful treasures."

The soldiers behind Yu Han responded in unison.

Then, led by a captain, carrying the ancient mirror, they stepped into the ancient dojo.

Time flies, and several days have passed in the blink of an eye.

As time passed, Yu Han, who was waiting outside the ancient Daoist temple, became increasingly anxious.

Without that ancient mirror, he has no idea what the current situation is within the Ancient Daoist Temple.

But seeing that not a single soldier had left the Ancient Dojo, he realized that his plan had most likely failed!
'Were they defeated by those alien races?'

'Still a powerful immortal?'

'Could they really be far stronger than I imagined?'

Hopefully, they were defeated by those alien races!

Yu Han's face was gloomy, and his fists were already clenched so tightly they were cracking.

Various thoughts were swirling in his mind.

He has been a saint for over two thousand years, and it has been no easy feat for him to reach this point.

He was unwilling to give up everything he had until the very last moment.

So even though he has mostly failed now, he has never intended to leave this place.

Of course, since he chose to remain in the second city even though things were very likely to have been exposed, instead of fleeing far away before the trial ended for the sake of safety, he did not do so.

This is naturally because he has other backup plans.

If he's just a complete idiot.

He couldn't replace Yan Yu and take the position of the Second City Commander.

It was during this time that Yu Han and the others were waiting outside the ancient Daoist temple, their hearts filled with unease.

Lu Zhou and his group, however, were thoroughly plundering the Taigu Dojo.

To be more precise, it was the Golden-Winged Roc King and the Red Phoenix who were plundering the ancient Daoist temple.

Lu Zhou's wealth was simply too immense; there really weren't many things in this ancient Daoist temple that caught his eye.

Throughout his journey, Lu Zhou focused more on comprehending the various Daos and forces that permeated this Daoist temple.

They moved through the ancient Taoist temple as if it were empty.

Even the well-known forbidden areas within the dojo could not stop their exploration and plundering.

Even if occasionally a Saint King-level savage beast is awakened by them and rushes out to kill them.

But that still couldn't stop them.

Nowadays, no one dares to mess with them anymore.

A few days ago, someone spotted Lu Zhou and his group from afar and swiftly and decisively killed several alien beings who appeared out of nowhere, as well as more than a dozen soldiers from the Second City who had illegally entered the Ancient Dojo with the intention of harming Lu Zhou and his companions.

Within this ancient Daoist temple, no one dared to provoke Lu Zhou and his group anymore.

That terrifying combat power that swept everything aside, and even the Dao Transformation Powder made from the remnants of the Great Sage's Dao Transformation mixed with the secret materials of the heavens, were all helpless against Lu Zhou and his group.

All of this was truly horrifying for those who witnessed it firsthand.

In addition, some people have witnessed even more horrifying scenes.

They saw that Lu Zhou shattered the sky covering this ancient dojo with just one punch.

Although, just a moment later, the sky was restored again under the effect of the formation.

However, during this time, some people saw that Lu Zhou and his group had taken the opportunity to enter a mysterious and brilliant starry river through the sky he had shattered.

Those who witnessed this scene had no idea what kind of place Lu Zhou and his group had entered.

All they knew was that even if they exhausted all their abilities, they could not shatter the sky like Lu Zhou had.

This situation has made some people realize once again just how vast the gap is between them and the legendary immortal.

After some time had passed, when the sky covering the ancient Daoist temple was once again powerfully shattered, and when some people saw Lu Zhou and his group returning from the Milky Way like immortal kings.

They were so shocked that they couldn't recover for a long time.

"They... seem to have all become stronger?"

"Have they broken through again?"

"What kind of world lies beyond the ancient Daoist temple?"

Someone murmured in a daze.

Lu Zhou and the others did indeed all break through again.

This was a plan that Lu Zhou had in mind long ago.

Therefore, the Golden-Winged Roc King, who could have already transcended tribulation and become a saint, as well as the Golden Roc he subdued on the road, have all been suppressed until now.

Of course, their efforts to suppress their breakthroughs over the years, only attempting to break through after arriving here, have clearly been of great benefit to their cultivation.

The ancient star outside the ancient Taoist temple is quite extraordinary.

Throughout countless ages, many great emperors have descended upon that ancient star.

Breaking through tribulation near such an ancient star is definitely much better than breaking through anywhere they randomly find on the road.

Therefore, it wasn't just the Golden-Winged Roc King and his Golden Roc who broke through to the next level here.

Kane, the Qilin beast beneath him, and Hongluan and her mount Cailuan also underwent tribulation and breakthrough here.

Even Lu Zhou underwent several tribulations here, until he stood on the seventh step of the Saint Realm, having previously been on the fourth step.

Now, more than five years, almost six years, have passed since Lu Zhou underwent tribulation and became a saint on Earth.

Although he has rarely made a move over the years, he has been constantly seeking enlightenment along the way.

He might be contemplating the different realms of Tao in each world, seeking the traces of his predecessors, or holding the insights of past sages that he has collected in the Wuji Taoist Temple, and meditating on them, and so on.

In this process, Lu Zhou didn't gain much, but he certainly didn't lose much either.

His spiritual cultivation was increasing every day.

Like Ye Fan, he defied the Great Dao.

They don't need the approval of heaven and earth. As long as their combat strength is high enough and they have accumulated enough, they will have the cultivation level corresponding to the tribulation even if they haven't undergone tribulation.

The reason for triggering the Heavenly Tribulation is merely to use its power to further temper their physique and Dao foundation, and even to stabilize their cultivation and hone their combat strength.

At this point, Lu Zhou and his companions, having plundered their way through the land, finally arrived at the Yuan Magnetic Immortal Cave, which had been mentioned in the original novel.

With Lu Zhou present, this immortal cave, which had been called a forbidden zone by previous batches of trial participants, naturally could not prevent Lu Zhou and his group from setting foot there.

When Lu Zhou saw the Golden-Winged Roc King, he picked up a shovel and prepared to dig up all the ancient vines rooted in the immortal cave and take them away.

He then hurriedly spoke up.

"Forget it, this ancient vine can only survive in ancient environments!"

"Taking it away will only kill these strange vines!"

"This Yuan Magnetic Immortal Cave is probably only accessible to a handful of people besides us, like Ye Zi. We might as well leave it here."

Upon hearing Lu Zhou's words, the Golden-Winged Roc King put away the shovel in his hand.

Then, with a wave of his hand, Lu Zhou left only three fruits from the ancient vines for the pickers.

He left this for Ye Fan, Long Ma, and Ji Ziyue.

Years ago, Ye Fan had told him that Ji Ziyue would travel with him to try out the human race's trial path.

In Ye Fan's plan, there was no such beast as Longma.

Lu Zhou was thinking about the situation in the original novel. What if that guy Longma had another seizure just as Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue were about to set off, and decided to go along with them?
So Lu Zhou decided to include Longma in his plans as well.

After collecting the exotic fruit, Lu Zhou and the others left the Yuan Magnetic Immortal Cave.

Lu Zhou did not leave immediately.

Instead, they set up a Source Heaven Divine Array here.

In this way, there should be no chance of anything going wrong.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the three exotic fruits in the cave should fall into Ye Fan's hands.

After completing these tasks, Lu Zhou and the others embarked on their journey to sweep through this ancient Daoist field.

Until
The trial finally came to an end.

On this day, in the central square of the second city, twelve gates connecting to the ancient Taoist temple opened one after another.
