Chapter 1797 - 1794: The Heavenly Tribulation Approaches!
"Strangulation, devour the divine soul of that three-headed hound for me!"
Li Chen noticed that the Nine Heavens Star Technique was unable to devour the divine soul of the Sky Demon Ancestor for a long time and worried that it might lead to complications, drawing the attention of the old Zhuanxu.
The Emperor Zhuanxu was already at the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Not to mention confronting his true form, even a mere shadow clone would likely be insurmountable at my current state.
After receiving Li Chen’s command, Strangulation responded and stretched out the Death Tentacles towards the Sky Demon Ancestor.
"Outer Realm Demon?"
Upon seeing Strangulation appear, the divine soul of the Sky Demon Ancestor immediately fell into despair.
He knew there was no escaping this disaster.
Moreover, from the earlier confrontation, he noticed something else.
That Donghua Immortal Emperor’s cultivation was greatly diminished, not even one ten-thousandth of its peak strength, making it his weakest moment.
With this in mind, the Sky Demon Ancestor steeled his heart.
His divine soul immediately split into thousands of parts, simultaneously attempting to break out from different spaces.
Seeing this, Strangulation frantically swung the Death Tentacles to intercept them.
Yet, even so, several residual souls managed to escape.
These residual souls wouldn’t cause much of a stir, as any master at the Divinity Transformation Realm or even a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Realm could easily annihilate them.
Li Chen was not worried about this.
He was concerned that those residual souls would report back to Emperor Zhuanxu.
If Emperor Zhuanxu found out that he was still alive, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Strangulation saw Li Chen’s expression become extremely serious and mistakenly thought that she hadn’t done well, pitifully saying, "Daddy, Strangulation was..."
Li Chen knew what Strangulation wanted to say and waved his hand to interrupt her.
"Strangulation, you’ve done very well, go rest!"
After sending Strangulation off, Li Chen gathered his thoughts again.
Of the five Heavenly Dao Steles, one was destroyed by Emperor Zhuanxu.
The remaining four were devoured by him using the Nine Heavens Star Technique.
Now, he felt a surge of uncontrollable primal power within him.
The immediate priority was to quickly convert this primal power into his own strength and break through the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, entering the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.
Only by advancing to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm would he have the resources to continue resisting.
Otherwise, let alone fighting Emperor Zhuanxu, it would be impossible to escape from his grip.
With this thought, Li Chen surveyed his surroundings.
Centered around the Sky Demon Palace, millions of square kilometers have been thoroughly destroyed.
The death of the Hellhound here certainly could not be hidden from Emperor Zhuanxu.
He could send his mighty subordinates at any time, or even come personally to investigate.
To ensure safety, he must seize the time to breakthrough quickly.
Having thought of this, Li Chen hesitated no longer and prepared to find the best location for secluded cultivation.
Not long after, Li Chen found a Death Star.
This Death Star was about the size of a hundred Earths, complete with land and ocean.
However, the land had no vegetation or animals.
The ocean had no life, not even single-celled organisms.
Only the air contained some microorganisms.
Occasionally, severe tectonic movements would occur.
Li Chen carefully examined the environment and felt that it was a suitable place for secluded cultivation and breaking through the shackles of the Heavenly Dao.
After noticing these features, Li Chen set up three hundred sixty Forbidden Barriers around the area.
It was truly a seamless all-around setup!
Firstly, it provided a favorable environment for the upcoming Heavenly Dao tribulation.
Secondly, it prevented interference from powerful entities, especially those under Emperor Zhuanxu.
Having taken care of all this, Li Chen cracked a satisfied smile.
After many years, he was finally about to break through to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm again.
With experience from a previous life, Li Chen found himself more prepared.
He methodically conducted his preparations, adjusting himself to his peak state.
Then, Li Chen sat cross-legged like a monk in meditation, entering a wondrous state.
And so it went, seasons passed, stars moved.
No one knew how many years had gone by; Li Chen just remained quietly in place.
Suddenly!
He abruptly opened his eyes!
His piercing gaze shot straight into the Nine Heavens Cloud.
The Heavenly Tribulation was finally about to arrive!
Sure enough!
The previously clear sky suddenly rolled with black clouds, sweeping in with great momentum.
Fierce Thunder Dragons seemed to be tumbling and roaring within these clouds.
Colliding and intertwining, the terrifying force generated shook the entire planet, threatening to shatter it at any moment.
Seeing this, Li Chen’s pupils contracted slightly.
Because he felt this Heavenly Tribulation was far more terrifying than the one he experienced in past lives.
Could the Heavenly Dao also wish to destroy me?
With this thought, the resolute battle spirit in Li Chen’s eyes erupted.
"No one can destroy me, not even the Heavenly Dao!"
Li Chen suddenly raised his Seven-star Dragon Abyss and let out a skyward roar.
Before his voice fell, the furious thunderclouds brewed the first Heavenly Dao thunderbolt.
"Boom!"
A Thunder Dragon, millions of feet wide, bared its menacing face and violently slashed down.
The surrounding space couldn’t bear such intense force and collapsed.
The entire ground shattered, countless Star Fragments pulverized into dust and vanished.
Instantly, the whole world turned into a complete vacuum.
Only Li Chen stood firmly, unyielding!
His face showed a determined warlike expression, his gaze firm as an undefeated War God.
Li Chen gently stroked the blade of the Seven-star Dragon Abyss.
The blade sliced his palm, Essence Blood flowed like a trickling stream, nourishing the sword.
"Swish!"
Nourished by Li Chen’s Essence Blood, the Seven-star Dragon Abyss immediately erupted with imposing momentum.
With Li Chen’s indomitable will, it boldly surged forward.
"Crack!"
Concentrated Sword Intent collided with the vast domineering thunderbolt in the air, unleashing an indescribable sonic boom.
If not for Li Chen’s preemptive setup of three hundred sixty comprehensive defense restrictions.
This Death Star might have disintegrated under such terrifying force, reduced to Star Fragments, becoming cosmic dust.
Li Chen gritted his teeth, holding on tightly.
His war robe could no longer withstand the brutal impact and was torn to shreds.
If not for his Domineering Longevity Body achieving Great Success Realm, with rock-like durability, he might have been obliterated as well...
