Chapter 315: Breaking Through to Celestial Supreme
Seeing the incoming black water, Xiao Tian immediately activated the Ancient Heaven and Earth Formation, fully utilizing his cultivation, physical body, and soul power to resist its descent.
Xiao Tian's cultivation had already reached the quasi-Celestial Supreme level, and his internal power was the far superior chaotic force. Now, merging his cultivation, physical strength, soul, and the power of different flames and ancestral symbols, he was almost on par with a true Celestial Supreme.
"Boom!" The black water crashed down, with each drop as heavy as a mountain. When combined, it felt like ten thousand mountains bearing down, an incredibly terrifying force.
But under Xiao Tian's fused power, the black water was eventually consumed.
"Rumble!" At this moment, the black clouds above churned again, and the temperature of heaven and earth abruptly rose. A wisp of flame descended from the sky. This black flame appeared faint, but it was more terrifying than any fire Xiao Tian had encountered before.
"A flame like this, I cannot miss!" Xiao Tian's eyes showed madness. This time, he didn't resist but opened his mouth and swallowed the black flame.
"Sizzle!" The flame contained an extremely horrifying temperature and strong corrosive nature. As soon as it entered his body, Xiao Tian's body began to corrode. Luckily, his body was filled with energy, and with its resistance, Xiao Tian breathed a sigh of relief and began to operate his refining technique, intending to transform this flame into a new exotic flame.
Such an act would be deemed insane by anyone witnessing it because this was a flame from the Celestial Tribulation, something even ordinary Celestial Supremes wouldn't dare to provoke.
"Boom!" It seemed that Xiao Tian's behavior had angered the tribulation. A black meteor suddenly plummeted from the black clouds, with an unprecedented momentum. Xiao Tian, while enduring immense pain and continuously refining the flame, split his mind to resist the incoming tribulation.
He knew he couldn't let the meteor gather more power, so he condensed millions of dragon patterns from the Azure Dragon Transformation Technique. These dragon patterns formed a giant purple-gold spear that shot skyward, colliding with the descending meteor.
"Crack! Crack! Crack!" "Boom!" The purple-gold spear shattered upon touching the meteor, but this attack slowed the meteor's descent and reduced its power significantly.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!" Xiao Tian continuously condensed purple-gold spears to resist. When the meteor finally reached him, he opened his eyes wide and punched it.
"Boom!" The punch, despite causing his flesh to be torn and mangled, shattered the black meteor.
After the meteor, the black clouds above became eerily calm, clearly brewing an even more terrifying attack. Meanwhile, Xiao Tian had fully refined the black flame, and his cultivation finally advanced to the Celestial Supreme level.
"Boom!" Suddenly, black thunder tore through the clouds and descended, covering the sky. Each bolt contained destructive power, reaching the pinnacle of terror.
"Thunder power? I'll absorb it too!" Xiao Tian ascended, directly bathing in the black thunder. This black thunder, although also black like the Black Demon Thunder, was vastly different in power. Each bolt could kill an Emperor-level or Ancestral Realm powerhouse.
Under continuous bombardment by the thunder, Xiao Tian's body was covered with more and more cracks, looking like a boat in a storm, ready to be destroyed at any moment. However, his body, forged by ten thousand thunderbolts and safeguarded by the Thunder Ancestral Symbol, withstood the thunder's might. In fact, his body grew stronger with each absorption of the thunder power.
Finally, the black thunder dissipated, and the black clouds began to contract toward the center. Soon, as the clouds completely vanished, they were replaced by a pitch-black hole. This hole, quiet and floating, descended slowly.
At this moment, Xiao Tian felt a stabbing pain in his brow, signaling a warning. This black hole, seemingly not very threatening, contained the most fearsome power, surpassing ordinary Celestial Supremes.
"Destruction Emperor Lotus, appear!" Xiao Tian shouted, summoning a lotus formed by twenty-seven exotic flames. The lotus pierced the void, heading toward the black hole.
"Explode!" As the Emperor Lotus neared, Xiao Tian controlled it to explode.
"Boom!" A vast destructive force erupted, a strike that even true Celestial Supremes would avoid. However, the black light from the black hole instantly nullified the destructive storm, reducing Xiao Tian's strongest attack to nothing.
"Stop it!" Xiao Tian frantically launched attacks: purple-gold dragon patterns, exotic flame power, ancestral symbol power—nothing could harm the black light. Finally, the black light landed on Xiao Tian, causing his already fragile body to disintegrate. His flesh turned to nothingness.
"Spirit of the World, empower me! Reform!" Xiao Tian had experienced his body breaking and reforming numerous times during the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's inheritance. This time was no different. As his body continuously broke and reformed, the black light was gradually consumed.
Simultaneously, Xiao Tian's aura soared, and his body grew stronger, exuding an immortal aura.
"With my body formed, now it's time for my soul to evolve!" Xiao Tian focused, causing his Niwan Palace to collapse. His soul power surged like a tide.
Enduring the pain in his brow, Xiao Tian gathered his soul power and began reconstructing his Niwan Palace. Previously, his soul power, having reached the Emperor level, allowed him to break through the Dou Di realm. But now, to truly reach the Divine Palace realm, he needed to rebuild his soul palace.
Under his control, the vast soul power assembled into a new, grander Divine Palace. Time seemed to stand still within the World Seed, allowing Xiao Tian to complete this monumental task undisturbed.
After a long while, his Divine Palace was finally constructed, majestic and magnificent, like a true deity's abode. As chaotic power infused it, the palace glowed with vitality.
With a thought, Xiao Tian's soul power filled the Divine Palace, undergoing a qualitative change. This transformation elevated his soul power to a new realm—divine sense.
At that moment, Xiao Tian opened his eyes, emitting a radiant light that even the chaotic light dared not touch. Clearly, he had truly become a Celestial Supreme, far superior to an ordinary one.
His power was not only due to mastering One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones but also because of the Celestial Tribulation. While ordinary Celestial Supremes faced four tribulations, he faced five in the chaos. The fifth tribulation's power far surpassed the previous ones, a death sentence for most.
Fortunately, Xiao Tian's formidable body, repeated rebirths, and the power of two worlds enabled him to survive and triumph.
