Primordial Era: Becoming the Great Emperor of Humanity from the Start

Chapter 4: Minor Success of the Sacred Body! The Yin-Yang Life and Death Diagram!

The Four Extremes Secret Realm is divided into four realms, each requiring cultivation of the left arm, right arm, left leg, and right leg. The order in which the four limbs are cultivated also varies.

According to the Hengyu Jing, Jiang Heng cultivated his four limbs one by one and quickly reached the Great Perfection of the Four Extremes Realm.

"My hands and feet are connected to the heavens and the earth, and every move I make is imbued with laws and mystical arts. I have finally cultivated the Four Extremes Secret Realm to the level of Great Perfection!" Jiang Heng said with satisfaction.

With a slight movement, Jiang Heng felt an incomparably terrifying power in his limbs, as if he could shatter the heavens and shake the void.

Moreover, Jiang Heng could clearly feel that the profound laws of heaven and earth were gathered in his limbs with every move he made.

This is the true manifestation of the Four Extremes Secret Realm reaching its full potential, which also means that Jiang Heng will soon step into the next stage of cultivation.

"Hmm? Is this a heavenly tribulation?" Jiang Heng was slightly taken aback and looked up at the sky.

The sky was now covered with dark clouds, thunder rumbled, and an extremely oppressive atmosphere was gathering.

This is clearly a sign that a heavenly tribulation is about to descend! But how could a heavenly tribulation be about to descend?

In the primordial world, there are naturally heavenly tribulations, but generally, only those who have cultivated to the level of immortality or above will be subject to heavenly tribulations.

In the world of "Covering the Sky", there are also tribulations of lightning, but both the Ancient Sacred Body and the Emperor's Law of Covering the Sky are system-modified.

Logically speaking, with Jiang Heng's current cultivation level of just reaching the perfect level of the Four Extremes Secret Realm, it should not be enough to trigger a heavenly tribulation.

Before Jiang Heng could figure it out, lightning descended from the heavens and struck him.

"Boom!"

When the first bolt of heavenly lightning struck, Jiang Heng remained fearless. His Ancient Sacred Body shone brightly as he withstood the attack without being harmed in the slightest.

"Boom!"

The second heavenly tribulation was no longer a single bolt of lightning; it transformed into a purple sea, a pool of lightning.

Endless lightning instantly engulfed Jiang Heng, turning the world into a vast ocean of purple light, containing terrifying power.

The thunderbolts connected heaven and earth, vast and boundless, like the Milky Way pouring down from the nine heavens, giving Jiang Heng not a single chance to catch his breath.

Under the relentless bombardment of lightning, Jiang Heng's body was already charred black, with pale golden blood flowing out.

Although Jiang Heng was severely injured, his Ancient Sacred Body was surging with energy and showed no signs of defeat. Instead, he stood tall and bravely withstood the heavenly lightning.

"Excellent! Let this endless thunder power allow my Ancient Sacred Body to truly achieve minor success!"

Jiang Heng's gaze was firm, and he was fearless. His powerful physique made it difficult for even heavenly lightning to destroy him.

Thunder roared across the heavens, and purple lightning surged like a tidal wave, creating a world of lightning capable of destroying everything in heaven and earth.

Under the bombardment of heavenly lightning, Jiang Heng's physical body began to collapse continuously, golden blood flowed out, and golden bones were vaguely visible.

But whenever Jiang Heng is about to give up, a surge of vitality will emerge within him, allowing his body to continuously repair itself.

"Boom!"

Another thunderous surge arrived, shaking the heavens and earth. Ten thousand feet of purple light swirled around Jiang Heng, piercing through the sky and the earth, like countless awe-inspiring dragons soaring into the sky.

This tribulation was even more terrifying than the last one, with endless lightning like blazing divine light, causing even the void to collapse continuously.

Such a terrifying tribulation caused Jiang Heng's physical body to collapse even more completely, but Jiang Heng ultimately survived it.

"As expected! The Heavenly Tribulation is the true nourishment for the growth of the Ancient Sacred Body!"

Under the heavenly tribulation, Jiang Heng endured endless pain, but at this moment, there was no expression of pain on his face; instead, he was smiling.

Having endured the trials of heavenly tribulation and embraced rebirth amidst ruin, Jiang Heng discovered that his Ancient Sacred Body was actually growing stronger.

The saying "no destruction, no construction" perfectly describes this! Only by revitalizing itself through destruction can the Ancient Sacred Body grow stronger and stronger until it reaches its peak.

"Boom!"

It was not over yet. A new heavenly tribulation was about to begin, with nine figures formed from heavenly lightning. Some resembled human bodies, while others were like true dragons.

This is a primordial deity imprinted by heaven and earth, representing the rules of heaven and earth, which now manifests as heavenly thunder.

The heavenly lightning, transformed into living beings, possessed unimaginable power, far more terrifying than the sea of ​​lightning, and began to fight Jiang Heng.

At the beginning, Jiang Heng was at a disadvantage due to his lack of combat experience and was repeatedly defeated by the heavenly thunder creatures.

But as the battle raged on, Jiang Heng grew stronger and stronger, his combat skills improved, and he soon began to launch a counterattack.

"The Azure Lotus Sprouts from Chaos! The Celestial King Descends Upon the Nine Heavens!"

In the end, Jiang Heng revealed two extraordinary phenomena: a chaotic blue lotus appeared behind him, and he transformed into a celestial king, slaying all nine heavenly lightning beings.

Although his physical body was once again in ruins, his battle with the creatures of heavenly lightning had filled the last gap in Jiang Heng's knowledge: combat experience.

But before Jiang Heng could catch his breath, nine more bolts of heavenly lightning descended, each containing a wisp of chaotic energy.

This is chaotic lightning. Although it is only a wisp, its power is terrifying and boundless, even more terrifying than those nine heavenly lightning beings.

Jiang Heng raised his head to the sky. Having experienced a fierce battle, Jiang Heng was no longer afraid. Instead, he was filled with surging fighting spirit.

"Boom!"

The first bolt of heavenly lightning struck, causing Jiang Heng's physical body to instantly collapse. His golden blood shattered, his bones cracked, and he teetered on the brink of collapse.

"Boom!"

The second bolt of lightning struck, nearly tearing Jiang Heng to pieces, leaving countless wounds, some so deep they exposed bone.

"Boom!"

The third bolt of chaotic lightning struck, then the fourth bolt, and then the fifth bolt.

Finally, the last bolt of chaotic lightning struck, piercing dozens of holes in Jiang Heng's body, nearly cutting him into several pieces.

After the nine bolts of chaotic lightning, Jiang Heng collapsed to the ground, his charred body resembling charcoal that had been through a fire, almost decaying.

On that dilapidated body, the muscles in many places had completely melted away, leaving only golden bones.

But in the end, Jiang Heng still stood up. Although his body was broken, his eyes were incredibly clear and bright.

Then, a cracking sound was heard, his body surface cracked, a layer of charred old skin peeled off, glistening and revealing new flesh.

Jiang Heng's bones cracked as his physical body began to recover, and his divine sense, like a golden sun, shone brightly in front of his brow.

His physical body was completely restored, radiating holy light. Within that vibrant body lay an incomparably terrifying power.

During the terrifying heavenly tribulation, Jiang Heng not only survived, but his Ancient Sacred Body also advanced further, truly reaching the minor completion stage.

Around Jiang Heng's physical body, there were nine streams of chaotic lightning energy, circling around his body like nine small dragons constantly dancing.

This is the mark of the Dao, an innate pattern of the Great Dao, born within the chaotic thunder energy, possessing infinite creative power.

Within those nine chaotic thunderous energies, Jiang Heng sensed the pervasive aura of the primordial era of heaven and earth, as if the world was being created.

With a thought, nine streams of chaotic lightning energy rapidly entered Jiang Heng's sea of ​​consciousness and began to be continuously refined by him.

The nine chaotic thunder energies each contained the trajectory of the Dao. After being refined by Jiang Heng, they transformed his divine consciousness into a seated immortal king.

The void trembled, and Jiang Heng's body fused with the void as one. He seemed to have comprehended the ultimate principles of heaven and earth and grasped the supreme mystery.

After a long while, Jiang Heng opened his eyes, his body moved slightly, and an incomparably terrifying power burst out, causing the void to ripple like water.

Having achieved minor success in the Ancient Sacred Body, Jiang Heng already possessed incredibly terrifying power solely through his physical body.

"I wonder if my physical body is stronger than that of the Witch Clan, or if the Witch Clan's physical body is stronger!" Jiang Heng muttered to himself.

In the primordial world, when it comes to the physical body, the first thing that comes to mind is naturally the Wu tribe.

The strength of the Wu Clan's physical bodies was already renowned throughout the entire prehistoric world, and the twelve Ancestral Witches possessed physical bodies that were even more incredibly powerful.

However, Jiang Heng believes that if the Ancient Sacred Body is truly perfected, he may not be at a disadvantage when competing with the Ancestral Witches in terms of physical strength.

"The commotion caused by this heavenly tribulation was so great, it's fortunate that no one noticed!" Jiang Heng muttered to himself.

During his secluded cultivation, Jiang Heng deliberately chose a secluded area to avoid making too much noise and being discovered.

Although the heavenly tribulation just now was immense, in the eyes of those powerful beings in the prehistoric world, it was probably nothing special and they wouldn't pay much attention to it.

Next, when cultivating the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, Jiang Heng felt that he would inevitably encounter another tribulation.

Just as Jiang Heng was about to continue his cultivation, suddenly, towering waves surged once again within Jiang Heng's golden sea of ​​suffering.

The sea of ​​suffering trembled, the void shook, and a diagram of yin and yang, life and death, flew into the sky, with yin embracing yang and yang embracing yin, life and death standing side by side.

"This? This is the Yin-Yang Life and Death Diagram?" Jiang Heng exclaimed in surprise.

Jiang Heng did not expect that when he reached the peak of his cultivation in the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, no unusual phenomenon would appear, but it would appear after he had survived the Heavenly Tribulation.

Like the Chaos Seed Green Lotus and the Primordial Descent to the Nine Heavens, the Yin-Yang Life and Death Diagram is also a supreme phenomenon with immense power.

Moreover, the Yin-Yang diagram of life and death, which embodies Yin and Yang, contains profound truths and has endless uses if carefully understood.

However, Yin and Yang, life and death, are the highest principles. Not to mention Jiang Heng, even those sages probably cannot fully comprehend them.

Therefore, if Jiang Heng wants to truly comprehend the mysteries of the Yin-Yang Life and Death Diagram, he probably still has a very long way to go.

However, Jiang Heng was not in a hurry. When he truly stepped into the Great Emperor realm, the three extraordinary phenomena would appear together, which would surely have the power to suppress the heavens.

"Next up is the Dragon Transformation Realm!" Jiang Heng muttered to himself.

Jiang Heng spent two full years cultivating in the Four Extremes Realm, and he will undoubtedly spend even more time in the upcoming Dragon Transformation Realm.

The so-called Dragon Transformation Secret Realm cultivates the human dragon spine, from the tailbone to the cervical spine, with a total of nine transformations.

The nine minor realms are also known as the Nine Transformations of the Dragon! During cultivation, each vertebra must be made to be like a pillar supporting the sky, as solid as a rock.

Once you reach the perfect level of cultivation in the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, your spine will manifest as a dragon.

Afterwards, Jiang Heng closed his eyes again and began to immerse himself in cultivation.
