Chapter 1319: Chapter 782: Ascend to Rank 2, Revisit Ten Thousand Demon Hall

In the endless mountains behind Half-falling Cliff.

Shen Yi found a secluded place and sat down on the ground.

Chi Yun Immortal’s sudden appearance was naturally unexpected, but he wouldn’t feel any guilt because of it.

From the moment this great tribulation began, Shen Yi and these Great Sects were on completely opposing sides.

Though Chi Yun Cave seemed oppressed by Qingguang Mountain, in front of the Divine Dynasty’s people, there was no difference between the two; both were monsters that preyed on people.

Even if it were to happen again, Shen Yi would not hold back against Mao Feng and the others.

Let’s not forget, Ling Su wanted to seize the Emperor’s Aura by borrowing demons from these Chi Yun Cave disciples.

"Hu."

Shen Yi let out a breath, suppressing the lingering fear in his heart, probably the closest he had come to death since leaving the Southern Continent.

But he managed to endure.

It also meant he was just one step away from completely securing his life.

Once he stepped over it, he would reach the Undying and Undying Great Freedom Realm!

Earlier, by relying on those few Bodhisattvas, Shen Yi had already amassed a total of over fifty thousand tribulations worth of Demon Lifespan and Emperor’s Aura. Later, in You Yao’s temple, he slew seven Third Rank Great Demons, adding to the previous Lu Tong, bringing the number to a terrifying one hundred twenty thousand tribulations.

As for the remaining eighty thousand tribulations...

Shen Yi looked up to the sky, where the boundless Emperor’s Aura from the Four Mansions was continuously gathering towards him.

The statues he placed back then were endlessly devouring incense night and day.

The seven demons couldn’t truly harm anyone; their sheer demonic power to scare the populace was naturally less effective. But Shen Yi’s deliberate release of endless black clouds, along with the Lingxu Cave disciples below, barely compensated.

The place was simply too large. Including Kaiyuan Prefecture, the entire land of the Five Mansions was equivalent to one-sixth of the North Continent, solely nourishing one person.

If not for this great tribulation, in the past, which immortal would dare to dream of such a good thing?

Shen Yi closed his eyes, golden pills spread out in the finger ring, occupying all his vision.

He quickly counted with his Divine Soul.

The combination of Demon Lifespan and Emperor’s Aura finally totaled two hundred thousand tribulations.

The golden pills continued to condense, but Shen Yi had already opened his eyes. He clenched his palm tightly and looked up at the sky once more, using the method recorded in the Jade Chen Treasure Decree.

The terrifying "Ice Mountain" that shook one’s soul revealed its corner again.

The patterns that covered the entire sky, representing the world’s paths, slowly emerged before Shen Yi, with two faintly glowing strands belonging to his heavenly ascent!

The foundation of two hundred thousand tribulations bought this opportunity to ascend.

If he failed, he didn’t know how long it would take to gather them again.

Even though Shen Yi had come all the way from insignificance with a stable mindset, he couldn’t help but feel nervous in front of this Heavenly Gate.

He adjusted his breathing, cautiously summoned the Dao Fruit and Fruit Position within him.

In a place only Shen Yi could see, the Golden Body Dharma Identity, shrouded in black clouds, also opened its eyes and boldly soared into the sky, following those two faintly glowing patterns, finally taking the first step towards the Heavenly Dao!

Dong! Dong! Dong!

Each step of the Golden Body Dharma Identity seemed to hammer in Shen Yi’s brow, causing a buzzing in his mind.

Yet he kept his eyes wide open, staring with all his might at the endpoint linked by the threads across the sky.

Whether it was the Dragon Subduing and Tiger Suppressing Fruit Position or the Shenxu Dao Fruit, even individually, they possessed the power to overturn the seas and destroy the heavens.

But at this moment, the combination climbing the heavenly patterns was like a mortal walking a fine thread across a high cliff, every step fraught with danger, seemingly about to shatter into pieces at any moment.

Gurgle—gurgle—

Suddenly, the sound of water echoed in Shen Yi’s ears. He initially thought it was a change encountered by the black cloud Golden Body. But the next moment, the intense pain in his skin made his entire face twitch.

He looked down and saw his skin wrapped in black water at some unknown moment, the fair skin rapidly dissolving in the water.

Water dissolving flesh and blood!

At this moment, all Shen Yi’s cultivation was unleashed, so he could only watch as his body transformed into a skeleton, with the beating organs even visible within.

Yet his path was steadier than he imagined. Also encircled by the foul water, these dark waters directly merged with the black clouds, never reaching the Golden Body itself.

The flood was just over, and the wind rose suddenly!

In the rustling fierce wind, Shen Yi watched as his jade-like bones drifted away like sand.

Wind eroded his bone.

When the bones all scattered, the viscera spilled across the ground, a formless flame surged, burning everything to ashes.

In this final fire disaster.

After a lifetime of hard cultivation, everything was turned to emptiness.

"... "

When Shen Yi awakened from his stupor again, he was at the pinnacle of the sky’s patterns, looking up and finding himself within the "Ice Mountain."

What met his eyes were Dao Fruits and Fruit Positions, each representing the giants who had once entered here.

Now, it seemed like it was his turn to leave one behind.

As this thought brushed by, Shen Yi suddenly drifted out from his body. Looking down, he saw the original Golden Body and black cloud transform into two intertwined streams of light.

After a long time, Jin Guang was the first to change.

A true White Jade hand reached out from within, followed by a head and shoulders, and the remaining five arms.
