Chapter 9 - Now, the Ultimate Plan! Let All Karma Fall Upon Donghuang Taiyi!
Chapter 9: Now, the Ultimate Plan! Let All Karma Fall Upon Donghuang Taiyi!
The Heavenly Tribulation laws within Chu Xuan had reached their peak and instantly transformed to perfection. Assimilating the laws, he reached the limit, forming his Dao Fruit!
A Dao Fruit truly belonging to Chu Xuan manifested from his body in an abstract form. His true form transformed, his Qi surged, and his bloodline refined itself.
Boom!
Endless disasters gathered around him at that moment—wind, rain, lightning, fire, thunder, and all nine tribulations descended at once.
Uncontrollably, Chu Xuan’s original ten-thousand zhang form swelled, expanding from one hundred thousand to one million, ten million, one hundred million… stretching boundlessly.
It was as if countless disasters were falling upon him. Even Golden Immortals of the same level would be fearful.
A Da Luo Golden Immortal, possessing complete mastery over a law, was already akin to the Dao itself.
But Chu Xuan’s law was the most unique law of Heavenly Tribulation.
At that moment, Chu Xuan had almost reached the pinnacle of strength. His gaze opened and closed like the descent of a Great Calamity, as countless beings in the distant future either bowed or cursed.
“So, this is a Da Luo Golden Immortal,” Chu Xuan said softly. His voice carried a sense of Dao intent, and he turned the countless beings of the future into challenges that surrounded him.
Even strong figures of his level would be unable to penetrate the veil of Dao shielding him.
Just as Chu Xuan had once seen Wu’s Ancestor Hou Tu, this was the essence of “The Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name!”
Unless one surpassed him in Heavenly Tribulations or reached the Saint realm, no one could pierce this shroud.
Chu Xuan, Sovereign of the Heavenly Tribulation Dao, had ascended to the same level as many of the great masters and finally earned a place on the board.
Though still behind them, he was now qualified to make his move. When his Heavenly Tribulation Dao reached its peak, he would even be able to impose tribulations on Golden Immortals and Quasi-Saints.
And this was only the benefit of a single scheme.
Chu Xuan’s gaze brightened—no, it practically sparkled! He knew that in the Primordial Realm, this was only the beginning; countless opportunities to intervene lay ahead.
As for the curses of future beings he had sensed when becoming the Sovereign of the Heavenly Tribulation Dao, what did that have to do with him?
Everything in existence could be harmed, as long as he remained unscathed!
“Yes, I need to develop my talents in strategizing! For instance, the authority over Heavenly Tribulations—there’s clearly room for growth!”
Infinite calculations began to swirl in Chu Xuan’s mind, and the future felt full of promise.
But as his eyes grew brighter, the Wu Ancestors around him, watching Chu Xuan emerge from his breakthrough, felt somewhat puzzled.
They had no idea that Chu Xuan had found the path most suitable for himself: if he had no golden finger, then he would simply create his own golden finger.
Poisonous schemes. Those were the true, eternal strength!
Looking at the dazed Chu Xuan, Zhu Rong felt a hint of unease. He couldn’t help but speak up to the other Wu Ancestors.
“Since little brother Chu Xuan has successfully broken through, we should get moving!”
At Zhu Rong’s words, the Wu Ancestors nodded and prepared for action.
Hearing this, Chu Xuan snapped out of his calculations, momentarily confused.
Little brother Chu Xuan? What kind of odd title was that?
And ‘moving’? Chu Xuan’s gaze flickered, and he quickly guessed their intentions.
“Wait, are the Wu Ancestors planning to go to the Heavenly Court of the Yao race?”
Ignoring the “Little brother” title, which he didn’t quite accept, Chu Xuan’s curiosity about their objective remained high.
The Wu Ancestors didn’t mind Chu Xuan’s questioning. He had already earned their respect with his wisdom and contributions and was qualified to speak as an equal.
Di Jiang, the head of the shamans smiled mildly when he heard his question and nodded and took the initiative to explain.
“Correct. The Yao race’s recent actions demand a response. As rivals, we cannot ignore them. If we stayed silent, it would seem unnatural. The karma of the Heavenly Tribulations is massive, so it’s not suitable for our Wu race to reveal too much for now. We had to guard you before, and later Zhu Rong and Gong Gong won’t be able to hold back their Quasi-Saint breakthroughs. So, now is the perfect time to act! Of course, because you achieved Dao through Heavenly Tribulations, you shouldn’t participate this time—not for any other reason but to keep things concealed.”
Di Jiang valued Chu Xuan highly, as he had single-handedly weakened the threat posed by the Yao race and generated six Quasi-Saints for the Wu race. Chu Xuan’s new status as a Da Luo Golden Immortal further cemented their view of him as a peer who could help bear the burden of the race’s future.
Unaware that Chu Xuan had already guessed their intentions and even devised his own plans, Di Jiang’s words made Chu Xuan’s eyes gleam with excitement.
He didn’t even mind the “Little brother” title, as his voice animated. “Good! Good! Good! Indeed, it’s wise to keep the heavenly tribulations’ true nature concealed for now. And though the Wu race’s response is somewhat delayed, the Heavenly Court is entangled in the effects of the tribulations, making this the perfect time to strike without arousing suspicion! My recent attainment of Dao through Heavenly Tribulations makes it reasonable for me to sit out. But… have the Wu Ancestors considered that this is an excellent opportunity?”
The Twelve Wu Ancestors hesitated, feeling an odd sense of anticipation.
Chu Xuan’s next words seemed to confirm their thoughts, his tone full of enthusiasm.
“To be honest, I have one more plan! A plan that would make the Heavenly Court lose all credibility and severely damage Donghuang Taiyi—clearing the way for our Wu race to annihilate the Yao race!”
Seeing Chu Xuan’s enthusiasm, the Wu Ancestors glanced at each other, recalling his last poisonous scheme, a move that had nearly blocked the path of cultivation for all beings. Though it had been for the Wu race’s future and even to safeguard Pangu’s world, it still left them with a lingering sense of dread.
Yet, with Chu Xuan having just reached the Da Luo Golden Immortal level, refusing him would be ungracious.
After a pause, Di Jiang spoke first.
“We are all family—please, tell us.”
Chu Xuan nodded in satisfaction. This time, he skipped the top, middle, and bottom strategy tiers to avoid interruptions, and explained directly.
“I have a plan called the Backlash of the Heavenly Tribulation—a final severing scheme! When I attained Dao, I sensed that Donghuang Taiyi is suppressing six Heavenly Tribulation Dao fruits, and his Quasi-Saint level is on the verge of breaking through. While he can’t fully refine the Dao fruits, he may be able to glimpse our true forms. Though our concealment may prevent him from deciphering the Heavenly Tribulations’ scheme, there’s still a risk of exposure, weakening our strike against the Heavenly Court! So, why not do this…”
Chu Xuan grinned, his plan emerging like a dagger.
“When the Wu Ancestors disrupt the Heavenly Court and distract Donghuang Taiyi, we Seven Sovereigns of the Heavenly Tribulation Dao will simultaneously unleash an eruption! During this time, countless beings, even powerful immortals, have hastily broken through to avoid tribulations. We will incite a tribulation surge, descending prematurely and unleashing a true flood of disasters! We can covertly amplify the difficulty of these tribulations to the maximum! And all cause and effect will fall upon Donghuang Taiyi alone!”
