The Twelve Ancestral Witches, Splitting the Weird Plateau with an Axe

Chapter 184 Breaking the Calamity
The heavenly tribulation struck down, and a sea of ​​electricity engulfed Li Qingxu.

The five Dao Palaces within Li Qingxu's body, radiating five beams of immortal light that pierced through the universe, were slowly merging into one.

The sounds of the Great Dao resonated, like Zen chants or ancient sacrificial chants, seemingly traversing time and space, drifting gently from the distant past.

The Dao Palace is like the heavens, giving rise to the Five Palaces.

When he first entered the Dao Palace Secret Realm, he first cultivated the spiritual treasures of his heart, then the spiritual treasures of his lungs, and then the spiritual treasures of his liver, which was a reverse cultivation of the five elements.

Now, having devoured the Five Elements Continent transformed from the Emperor's corpse, the endless Five Elements essence has helped him rebuild the Dao Palace Secret Realm and achieve the cultivation of the Five Elements.

The reversal and forward five elements are like the yin and yang, light and darkness of Tai Chi.

When both reach their ultimate state, they transform into the five innate elements, unify the Dao Palace, and achieve complete perfection!
The terrifying lightning tribulation seemed to possess divine consciousness, focusing solely on his chest, as if it would not allow anything to be born within it!
Li Qingxu charged upwards against the sky, his left fist striking upwards with force, penetrating five layers of the sea of ​​tribulation and creating a vast vacuum!
At this moment, he was not just undergoing one tribulation, but rather facing five quasi-emperor tribulations simultaneously!
He broke through from the first level of Quasi-Emperor to the sixth level, unparalleled in the world. Endless lightning and a vast immortal domain suppressed and surrounded him.

"My heart is the heart of the Dao; I seek only the Great Dao!"

"When disaster strikes, I will overcome it with my own strength!"

Li Qingxu's eyes shone brightly, his conviction stronger than ever before, and he did not regard the five tribulations as difficulties.

In fact, the fifth level of the Quasi-Emperor tribulation is extremely rare, if not unprecedented, then almost unprecedented. How could someone at this level possibly undergo tribulations consecutively?

Normally speaking, the Quasi-Emperor Tribulation really requires one to endure it layer by layer, and the further one goes, the more difficult it becomes. Each layer will trap a cultivator for many years, or even lead to death from old age when their lifespan is almost up.

However, Li Qingxu was extremely powerful, and these five tribulations could not stop him.

He charged forward against the tide, piercing through the sea of ​​lightning, as if he had shattered the vast immortal realm.

He held his protective axe in his right hand, standing proudly in the vast immortal realm.

The fivefold tribulation of lightning cannot be that simple.

However, a loud bang followed.

A raging sea surged forth, its waves crashing in.

This is a raging fire that is burning the universe to ashes. Distant stars are engulfed by the flames and melted away.

This was karmic fire, scorching Li Qingxu and tempering his body. It came out of nowhere and very suddenly.

In this vast mortal world, all beings are sinful. When their bodies are consumed by fire, even the gods will not spare them, and even ancient Buddhas cannot escape.

Once the body is activated, it truly burns until the soul is completely consumed.

This karmic fire is somewhat different from the karmic fire in the world; it is the essence of all karmic fires, the most terrifying of all.

All the great calamities of the heavens and myriad paths transformed into fire, converging together to forge Li Qingxu's physical body.

Li Qingxu's gaze was calm. Instead of splitting it apart with an axe, he held the ancient stone axe, bathed in the firelight.

This is a process that every Quasi-Emperor must go through. It occurs when most people become Quasi-Emperors, but for a few individuals it occurs later in the process.

When he first became a Quasi-Emperor in the Underworld, he did not undergo tribulation, but now he has.

Li Qingxu's body was like a chaotic stone, actively drawing upon karmic fire to temper his soul.

This is not something an ordinary person would dare to do, but he was taking the risk.

Because he wanted to become the strongest, he demanded everything of an unbelievable standard in preparation for the dark turmoil to come.

Despite the uncertainties of the future, strengthening our capabilities is an inevitable choice.

The karmic fire tempered his body, and Li Qingxu's entire body exuded a chaotic mist. His blood was surging, and every bone in his body was pulsating and trembling incessantly.

This is a trial, but also a rare transformation, not the karmic fire that the world sees.

Instead, it is the myriad essences of karmic fire that temper his body, burning incessantly.

This was naturally a great ordeal. Even with Li Qingxu's physical strength, his flesh was torn apart and almost burned.

Every bone was colliding, even breaking.

His body was being reconstructed, like a snake shedding its old skin, while small pieces of broken bone were squeezed out, and flesh and blood kept falling off, leaving a trail of blood.

This scene is terrifying. Transformation should not be like this; it should be done step by step, changing things from the smallest details. Such drastic changes, breaking bones and replacing them, cutting away flesh and blood, are truly horrifying.

But the karmic fire ignited by the quasi-emperor was like this; this transformation had no gradual progression whatsoever, it was extremely fierce and extremely violent.

Li Qingxu seemed to have formed a chaotic energy egg, with karmic fire burning fiercely outside, engulfing him.

This place is becoming increasingly mysterious and unpredictable, as if an invisible giant axe is chopping and transforming his body.

It is unknown how much time passed before the karmic fire subsided.

Li Qingxu opened his eyes, sharp as lightning, his right hand gripping the stone axe tightly, and he shuddered.

In an instant, the heavens and earth collapsed, and a terrifying void rift appeared, stretching across this star field, as if dividing the world into two realms!

After the fifth level of tribulation ended, he successfully advanced to the next level.

Both its physical body and its consciousness were extremely terrifying, reaching an astonishing level.

From this day forward, looking across the universe, he will be considered one of the strongest individuals.

Li Qingxu devoured the essence of the universe, replenishing his weakened body after his tribulation, drawing upon the essence of all directions, and invoking harmony among the myriad paths of heaven and earth.

The five Dao Palaces within his body have completely merged into one, resembling an eternal celestial palace containing boundless Dao power.

The five ancestral witches, in their true forms, constituted the five elements of the primordial world, each occupying a region.

A dazzling Dao diagram, radiating celestial light, hangs above the Eternal Immortal Palace; it is none other than the Primordial Five Elements Dao Diagram.

"Quasi-Emperor Sixth Heaven".

In the endless starry sky, Li Qingxu, dressed in a green robe, stood proudly, his terrifying aura sweeping across the heavens and shaking the cosmos.

"It's still too slow."

Feeling the changes within himself, Li Qingxu sighed softly.

Time is running out. If he remembers correctly, the path to immortality will open after Ye Fan completes the ancient path of the human race and returns to Beidou.

At that time, darkness and turmoil will descend.

With his current strength at the sixth level of Quasi-Emperor, he is far from being a match for those Supreme Beings within the Forbidden Zone.

Not to mention that after the path to immortality is opened, those supreme beings will undergo extreme sublimation and become immortals for a lifetime.

As for hiding?
joke.

He possessed the bodies of the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Three Pure Ones, which combined to form the pure body of Pangu, so he had no intention of hiding.

"There are some places I should visit."

As the words fell, the void shattered, and Li Qingxu's figure vanished.

……

On the ancient star of life, the great saints from beyond the realm gazed at the vast starry sky with fear in their eyes.

Just a moment ago, an extremely terrifying aura swept past, making their souls tremble.

Under that aura, they felt like ants on the ground, with a giant dragon flying overhead.

Their pure, natural aura made them feel they needed to look up to them.

That's the instinct of life surrendering!
"Then... has that being broken through to become an 'Emperor'?"

One of the Great Sages said in a trembling voice.

"It's very possible that the aura of that person now is the same as the divine might that dominated the heavens and earth when the imperial weapon was revived!"

"Hiss, a true Great Emperor?!"
