He was invincible from the beginning of the Heaven-Covering Era.

But the next moment his movements stopped, his expression changed, and he looked extremely ugly.

"If I were to make a move, that woman would definitely come out to stop me. And even if I avoid that woman, are there really no other unexpected events? Past experience has been bloody."

The man's eyes flickered between hope and fear. He walked and stopped intermittently, finally letting out a long sigh before disappearing back into hiding.

But he is not the most hidden person in the universe. There is someone even more hidden than him, sleeping in the deepest level, who suddenly opened his eyes today.

"What happened in the past is what happens today. With my lifetime plus a peerless elixir, that should be enough to repay the debt, right?" the man murmured, his tone somewhat uncertain.

On the path of chaos, Zhou Qing fought against the young emperor every day for a whole year, until the first supreme being of the early era turned into lightning and dissipated. His brow tingled again, and a huge divine power surged forth.

In an instant, after countless shifts in time and space, his figure reappeared in the universe across the nine heavens and ten earths.

"With the last person gone, have the rules really changed?" Zhou Qing's expression was somewhat astonished.

However, it doesn't matter. His gains have accumulated to a very large extent. He has gained too much combat experience and learned many powerful Daos. Next, he will take these Daos one by one to the Saint level and truly transform them into his own foundation.

Chapter 249 The Holy King's Pure Land

A year had passed during the Dao Child Trial, but only six days had passed in the universe, which was not a long time.

Zhou Qing's body floated in space as he opened his mouth and inhaled.

"Boom!"

A waterfall cascaded down, and all sorts of cosmic divine energy—golden, silver, red, and cyan—converged towards him, replenishing his energy reserves.

This is why only sages can walk alone in the universe. There are many wandering divine powers in the universe, but only sages can capture them.

Only when one's own laws transform and become the laws of a sage can the quality of these laws qualify them to attract the divine energy of the universe.

Even if one's power is much stronger than that of an ordinary saint, if one's realm is not high enough, then one's realm is not high enough. Capturing the divine energy of the universe has nothing to do with power.

Such a commotion naturally attracted the attention of the Kunpeng Ancestor and others inside the Chaos Gate. They had just flown out of the Chaos Gate and were about to speak when their expressions suddenly froze.

Zhou Qing's entire body radiated divine light, and his bones and skin naturally exuded a strong Daoist charm that overwhelmed the entire starry sky. Various Daoist principles swept through the starry space, almost within reach, instantly putting the group into a state of enlightenment.

Because this is no ordinary Dao principle. Every strand of Dao principle that streaks across this starry sky contains the supreme mysteries of the path walked by a young emperor. Its profound meaning and grandeur far surpass those of countless ordinary saints.

Zhou Qing fought on the Chaos Path for a year, fighting every day. After one person finished fighting, the next person immediately took over, and he had no time to rest at all.

Throughout the battle, he was constantly comprehending the Great Dao and studying the connections between different Daos. His mind never stopped working and was always in the most intense state of operation.

Apart from the Azure Emperor, Wu Shi, and a few other well-known young emperors, Zhou Qing had already comprehended the path taken by the other young emperors at the King stage, and developed the Heavenly Dao Fist based on it.

After becoming a sage, the great Dao that was difficult to comprehend at the king stage became less difficult for Zhou Qing.

Once you take a look at any Dao, there will be no secrets to it. After a few days of comprehension, you can master its application. Compared to his kingly days, his current Dao sense has increased many times over, a complete transformation.

The Dao principles flowing from his body include dozens of those he has reached the Saint realm, equivalent to the fusion of dozens of Saint-level young emperors. These Dao principles were ones he had already seen through during his King stage, and after cultivating on the Chaos Path for a year, they all became Dao principles in the Saint realm.

These young emperors all possess combat strength ranking among the top 100 of their respective eras, a fact Zhou Qing personally verified.

Furthermore, with twenty or thirty different realms of kingship, these young emperors' combat strength at the same level could rank among the top fifty of the era.

If these young emperors lived in the same era as the young emperors mentioned above, then the young emperors mentioned above would basically have no chance of attaining enlightenment.

There are also several other powerful realms of Dao, such as Eternity and Time, which are Dao that place those with similar combat power at least in the top ten of an era.

Because he only has a few days to comprehend each of the Great Daos, he can only comprehend that level first, and then gradually elevate it through subsequent cultivation.

For him, whose physical condition has undergone a major transformation, this is not difficult.

The Dao principles flowing through this starry sky are all the great Daos that Zhou Qing has comprehended over the past year.

Because he was fighting every day and had no time to return to simplicity, his power now filled the entire starry sky.

Even the Kunpeng Ancestor had never experienced anything like this before, with dozens or even hundreds of Daos of unparalleled grandeur surging towards him like a vast ocean.

Why couldn't he break through to the Quasi-Emperor level? One important reason is that his Dao's intent was insufficient, its level was not high enough, and it contained too little, making it insufficient for his Great Sage Law to transform into a Quasi-Emperor Law.

Sometimes, what hinders people is precisely that thin layer of paper. Before it's broken through, they treat their little room as the whole world, feeling as if they occupy a large part of it.

But when the window was broken open, he suddenly discovered that there was an even wider and more vast world outside. His vision was broadened, and many things he had never thought of before suddenly came to mind.

The Kunpeng Ancestor is in this situation now. In these great Daos, although the level of laws is not high, the concept of the Dao has already surpassed that of countless saints. A large number of insights suddenly emerged in his mind.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that there was still room for improvement in the path he was on, unlike before when he felt that he had reached the end of the Great Path, which made him overjoyed.

In cultivating the Tao, one is not afraid of perceiving the flaws in one's own Tao. What one fears most is believing that one's Tao is already perfect, has reached its limit, and cannot possibly have any room for further improvement. This is what cultivators fear most.

A moment later, Zhou Qing stopped absorbing the divine energy of the universe, and his aura truly reached its peak, with his own magical power fully restored.

"I really don't know what kind of tribulation you've undergone. Not only did it take six days, but you've also changed so much. It feels like you've been fighting for a very long time," said Ancestor Kunpeng.

"I'm fighting against many young emperors," Zhou Qing said simply.

The old ancestor Kunpeng was extremely shocked: "Fighting against a young emperor? No wonder. The world is marked with the traces of the Dao of each stage of the Daoist, but few people have ever survived such a tribulation. It varies from person to person. Many Daoists have never even experienced such a tribulation."

"The tribulations vary from person to person and from one's path to enlightenment. Having experienced them does not mean one is strong in combat, nor does not having experienced them mean one is weak in combat. They can only be used as a reference," Zhou Qing said calmly.

At this moment, Dao Qingling revealed a captivating smile, her bright eyes like water, and said, "Congratulations on becoming a saint. You are truly ahead of everyone else now."

Zhou Qing was also somewhat satisfied. Becoming a saint was truly a tremendous transformation. His current power was enough to pluck stars from the sky, tear apart continents, and destroy ancient lands of life. His strength was unbelievable.

Looking at everyone, he said, "Now that I have completed my tribulation, we can head straight for the Big Dipper. You, Xiaoyu, and Yu'er haven't become saints yet, so it's best if you go into the Gate of Chaos to cultivate. Kunpeng Ancestor and I can just fly in the starry sky."

He immediately made arrangements, waiting for the three to enter the Gate of Chaos before closing it.

got up.

The chaotic gate, the size of a star, rapidly shrank under his control, eventually becoming the size of a fist, and flew into his brow.

The world within the Gate of Chaos is comparable to the most prosperous star system for cultivation, far surpassing the current Big Dipper. Within his Gate of Chaos, there is even liquid-like essence of heaven and earth condensing, gradually accumulating divine source liquid.

Moreover, due to the large amount of holy weapons that were shattered, various holy-grade materials are gradually evolving in the veins of the Chaos Immortal Land. Although there are not many now, as time goes by, it will eventually evolve into an immortal land with countless dream-grade materials.

"There's one last thing. Ancestor Kunpeng, please wait a moment. I still have one more transformation to undergo," Zhou Qing said.

Now, this star field is only occupied by him and the Kunpeng Ancestor. It is extremely empty and desolate, with many large stars around them having just exploded in the heavenly tribulation.

Zhou Qing looked at the empty star field, frowned and pondered for a moment, then deduced the possible range of impact later. Suddenly, he said to the Kunpeng Ancestor, "Please step back a bit, about a thousand stars away."

"Do I also need to withdraw?" Kunpeng Ancestor was taken aback.

"Yes, because I don't know what will happen to me next." Zhou Qing's expression was extremely serious.

Seeing Zhou Qing's seriousness, the Kunpeng Ancestor retreated a distance of a thousand stars with some skepticism.

The next instant, a loud "boom" resounded.

A vast and radiant pure land unfolds under this starry sky, swallowing even the stars themselves, its territory boundless and limitless.

Now, Zhou Qing's sacred laws have become the vast will of heaven in the Pure Land of Gods, the heart of heaven, and the way of heaven in the Pure Land of Gods.

Zhou Qing exuded four extremely high-level Dao auras, containing the true meaning of all living beings, encompassing everything, like the universe, swallowing the eight wastelands and encompassing the four seas.

It embodies the essence of fleeting beauty, blooming with the most awe-inspiring brilliance in its short life.

It embodies the true meaning of embracing life and bearing everything; all civilizations throughout history have grown and perished within it.

It possesses the truth of transcending everything and existing eternally, and all sentient beings have been pursuing this state since time immemorial.

As the four Dao auras were released, it seemed as if some condition was met, and a huge explosion occurred in this star field in an instant.

In an instant, the starry sky was filled with void rifts, and countless black holes tore apart the surrounding spacetime. The aura of "calamity" permeated the starry sky, as if it would knock Zhou Qing into an abyss of no return.

The pitch-black universe, dotted with stars, is now being repeatedly disrupted.

The first thing to appear was a gust of wind, accompanied by an extremely profound and eternal aura. As soon as it blew over, it turned the surrounding stars into nothingness and annihilated them.

This is the Eternal Divine Wind. The name "Eternal" means that everything is transformed into an eternal wind, leaving nothing behind.

Stars tens of thousands of miles in diameter melted into the wind, making the wind even more violent. Even time and space melted into the wind and crumbled away.

Zhou Qing's Pure Land of Gods was no exception; it suffered a devastating blow in an instant, becoming dilapidated and devastated.

But this is just the beginning.

As the eternal divine wind blew, the other three tribulations he had already overcome also appeared one by one.

Jambudvipa water, fleeting fire, primordial earth, eternal divine wind.

These four calamities contain far too many mysteries.

In terms of the Great Dao, they respectively represent the Dao of all beings, the Dao of a fleeting moment, the Dao of the mysterious and the yellow, and the Dao of eternity.

These are two opposing paths. The opposition between the path of the moment and the path of eternity is self-evident and needs no further explanation.

The Way of All Beings is a kind of human way; the Way of the Mysterious Yellow is the Way of the World, which is a kind of heavenly way.

Therefore, in these four kinds of calamities, the path of sentient beings is opposed to the path of the mysterious and the yellow, and the path of the moment is opposed to the path of eternity.

But is that all there is to it? No, there are more than that. Among these four calamities, there are two more that are interconnected and yet contradictory.

That is, the fleeting beings and the eternal heaven and earth are two interconnected relationships.

Heaven and earth have existed since ancient times, and are difficult to perish; they are almost eternal. But what about living beings? Generation after generation, they constantly rotate. In the long span of time between heaven and earth, the life of each generation of living beings is but a fleeting moment.

These four calamities are contradictory yet harmoniously unified, possessing infinite mysteries.

Therefore, these four Great Daos are the most important things for the sublimation of the Pure Land of the Gods, and Zhou Qing must comprehend each of them.

Previously, he had always lacked the final eternal path and was unable to comprehend it, but this time he comprehended it in his battle with the Azure Emperor.

“So, Pure Land of the Gods, evolve,” Zhou Qing muttered to himself, and sat down.

Boom!

The four elements surged and roared in the Pure Land of the Gods, destroying everything—the Tree of Light, the earth and mountains, and the ethereal web of stars.

The Pure Land of the Gods collapsed, but Zhou Qing's aura not only did not decline, but instead grew stronger and stronger. As his aura surged, this entire star field trembled, and hundreds or thousands of stars began to revolve around Zhou Qing.

Destruction is for a better rebirth.

A brand new world was born under the four elements. It was vast, bright, great, and mysterious. It seemed to be the source of the universe, the source of all paths, the abode of the king of gods, and the most sacred and inviolable pure land in the world.

If the Pure Land of the past was the dwelling place of all the gods, then the Pure Land of the present is the dwelling place of a king who stands above all the gods.

This is a tremendous change. Zhou Qing felt that this Pure Land should not be called the Pure Land of the Gods, but the Pure Land of the Holy King.

It seems that an incomparably great being once descended upon this place. He was a saint who enlightened all living beings, and also a king who ruled over all the gods.

He sees through the past and the future, dissipates the illusion of fate, and in this pure land, He is truly invincible, without Tao, without fate, without destiny, and without law or order.

Zhou Qing could sense that this Pure Land was far from its limit. Perhaps due to his low cultivation level, the Saint King Pure Land he had condensed was less than one ten-millionth the size of a true Saint King Pure Land.
