Chapter 4539 - 4539 The Forbidden Realm
4539 The Forbidden Realm
“Bring it on!”
Duan Ling Tian was like a fearsome and peerless god of sword at this moment as he stood in a sea of swords, even his gaze was as sharp as a sword. He waved his hand; and millions of swords in the void rays flew out, obeying the command of the god of sword.
‘This is the law of space and the Sword Dao at the paramount stage and the seventh stage!’
With just a thought, Duan Ling Tian could control the void in his surroundings, causing them to twist, ripple, and shake.
With the Void Elder’s memories, he felt both familiar and unfamiliar with this brand-new force. At the same time, he found that he could control it easily as though this was not his first time doing so.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was not any weaker than the Void Elder when the Void Elder was facing the deadly Heavenly Tribulation. With the Void Elder’s memories, his advantage also grew.
Duan Ling Tian raised his head and looked at the storm that was heading his way calmly as he muttered, “The Heavenly Tribulation might have killed many peerless top advanced Supreme Gods in the past, but it won’t be able to kill me today!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Lightning flashed in the sky as thunder rang deafeningly loud as though heaven was rebuking Duan Ling Tian.
Thanks to the Void Elder’s memories, Duan Ling Tian knew that heaven would not tolerate the existence of someone who could threaten its existence. After his breakthrough, if he continued to progress, it was not impossible for him to be as strong as or even surpass the Void Elder. If he surpassed the Void Elder, he could be equal to heaven or even surpass heaven. As such, how could heaven tolerate his existence and allow him to grow stronger?
Thunder and lightning continued to herald the arrival of the Heavenly Tribulation. It seemed like the world was about to come to an end at this moment. However, when the Heavenly Tribulation passed the God Defying World’s spatial barrier and entered the Asura Hell, it seemed as though part of its energy was devoured by another energy.
‘Is this the World energy?’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up when he sensed the energy that drained the Heavenly Tribulation.
…
At the same time, the supreme powerhouses in the God Defying World felt the fluctuations of the World energy as it devoured the energy of the Heavenly Tribulation.
“What’s going on?”
“Why did so much World energy suddenly disappear?”
“Is someone from the Outer Boundary attacking our God Defying World?”
The God Defying World had a special spatial passage that led to the Outer Boundary. However, if one was a native of the God Defying World and if one was strong enough, one could make a spatial tear that would bring one back to the God Defying World. One would not be rejected by the World energy since one was a native of the God Defying World. However, if one was not a native of the God Defying World, one would be rejected by the World energy if one tried to forcibly enter the God Defying World through a spatial tear. Unless one was strong enough to overwhelm the World energy, it was impossible to forcibly enter the God Defying World through unofficial means. Moreover, over the years, the World energy of the God Defying World had been reinforced by the World energies of its countless subordinate Worlds, making it stronger. With this, natives of the God Defying World could also enter the subordinate Worlds through this means without getting rejected by the subordinate Worlds’ World energies. It was just like how Duan Ling Tian was able to enter the Cyclic World, one of the God Defying World’s subordinate Worlds, before he went to the Outer Boundary.
…
“The consumption of the energy comes from the Asura Hell…”
As one of the Lords of the God Defying World, Xiao Mu Bai naturally paid a lot of attention to the God Defying World. As soon as he noticed the energy consumption, he quickly went to the source, which was the Asura Hell. He had been there several times and was rather familiar with it.
When Xiao Mu Bai arrived, he could see a familiar figure standing in the eye of the storm even though he was quite a distance away. It was none other than Duan Ling Tian whom he had met not long ago.
Xiao Mu Bai watched as Duan Ling Tian stood in the void, looking as deadly as a sword as he faced the Heavenly Tribulation. He could also tell that Duan Ling Tian had the upper hand at this moment.
After a moment, Xiao Mu Bai’s eyes widened imperceptibly as he murmured to himself, “This is no ordinary Heavenly Tribulation, and he’s not a supreme powerhouse yet!”
Although Xiao Mu Bai was sure Duan Ling Tian was not a supreme powerhouse yet, he could tell that Duan Ling Tian was not any weaker than a level-one supreme powerhouse. In fact, he could sense that Duan Ling Tian was stronger than most level-two supreme powerhouses.
“How’s this possible?!”
Even if one was the strongest peerless top advanced Supreme God, one would still be weaker than level-one supreme powerhouses. However, Duan Ling Tian, who was clearly not a supreme powerhouse yet, had shown strength comparable to level-two supreme powerhouses! How could this not shock Xiao Mu Bai?
Xiao Mu Bai was not an ordinary imminent World supreme powerhouse after all. He was considered young among the imminent World supreme powerhouses and demi Saints in the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary. He was naturally very quick with his thinking as well.
‘Could it be… Could it be that his Sword Dao has reached the seventh stage?’
Xiao Mu Bai inhaled sharply when he thought of this possibility. He continued to watch the scene in front of him in shock.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
At this moment, two figures appeared next to Xiao Mu Bai.
“Is that Duan Ling Tian?” one of them asked Xiao Mu Bai.
Xiao Mu Bai did not expect the two old men, who were in closed-door cultivation all year round, would appear after being alarmed by Duan Ling Tian’s movement. After a moment, he nodded and replied, “Yes. He’s not a supreme powerhouse yet, but his Heavenly Tribulation now is stronger than the Heavenly Tribulation the weakest supreme powerhouses have to face. Moreover, he doesn’t seem to be at a disadvantage.”
The two old men were another two imminent World supreme powerhouses from the God Defying World. They usually stayed in closed-door cultivation to recover from the serious injuries they sustained during their last Heavenly Tribulation. Due to their very old age, they were not certain they would even survive their next Heavenly Tribulation.
Xiao Mu Bai’s expression was solemn as he looked ahead and said, “Duan Ling Tian has completely integrated his law of space with his Sword Dao. His Sword Dao and his law of space have reached the paramount stage and seventh stage respectively…”
Xiao Mu Bai was usually calm and did not get flustered easily. However, this time, a hint of tremor could be heard in his voice when he spoke.
“What?! You’re saying he has broken into the Forbidden Realm?”
The Forbidden Realm referred to when one completely integrated a law and a Dao of Heaven and Earth and comprehended them to the paramount stage and the seventh stage respectively. Only by doing this could one enter the Forbidden Realm. However, once one entered this realm, one would be killed by heaven.
After the gap in history, although the number was not big, there were still a few people who entered this realm. However, all of them, without exception, were killed by the Heavenly Tribulation.
This was the reason it was called the Forbidden Realm.
