Chapter 1800 - I Become an Immortal King, Unsurpassed in Any Era

Majestic figures deep within the tribulation clouds...

The Red Dragon Dao Monarch’s eyes widened. Bewilderment was written all over her face.

Who are those people? Gods? Or perhaps the rulers of the Dao of the heavens? If not, how could they possibly have appeared in a tribulation?

The Red Dragon Dao Monarch’s mind went blank. Everything happening in front of her was far beyond the bounds of her comprehension. She simply couldn’t understand it.

Su Yi looked at those illusory figures too. They stood at the far end of a vast distance of time and space. Each was grander than the one before.

For some reason, they seemed somehow familiar. And a moment later, he recalled where he’d seen them—in the White Reed Province, where Mount Taiwu once stood, the Divine Fortune Teller made the Zhuyou Great Peng use its innate divine ability to investigate the mountain’s disappearance.

In the end, the bird inadvertently discovered vestiges of the gods' handiwork, and it was beset by a divine tribulation. Afterward, the Zhuyou Great Peng said that it saw gods standing over the River of Epochs!

A woman seated on a Vermillion Bird and shrouded in an endless sea of flame.

A man standing on a cloud, with countless stars shining behind him.

A three-headed, six-armed, gaunt monk standing atop a mountain of corpses and sea of blood, with a grand and holy Buddhist kingdom floating over his outstretched palm.

A young Daoist seated on a wooden sword. When his eyes moved, endless sword qi swept through the sky!!

Su Yi looked closer, and indeed, he discovered that the mysterious figures deep within the tribulation clouds matched the Zhuyou Great Peng’s description!

Are those the gods who took Mount Taiwu away during the Age of Fallen Immortals? Why have they appeared during my tribulation? They stand over the endlessly distant River of Epochs; how could they have discovered that I’m about to face my Miracle Realm Grand Tribulation?

Su Yi’s thoughts raced, and questions filled his mind.

He still recalled that the Zhuyou Great Peng had told him that the most terrifying of the gods it had seen was a figure shrouded in darkness. The bird couldn’t see his features clearly, but he was surrounded by countless talisman markings. The markings looked as if they’d been manifested from the Laws of heaven and earth, and they formed a divine ring behind him!

Su Yi saw no one of that description now, but then, the figures were illusory and ethereal, separated by seemingly endless time and space. It was hard to see any of them clearly. Thus, he couldn’t say with certainty that that terrifying figure wasn't present.

But before Su Yi could fully grasp the situation...

Boom!

A massive impact shook heaven and earth.

The Sword of the Nine Hells descended with a low, thunderous rumbling, like the first parting of primordial chaos. The clouds full of a dense, calamitous aura split and fell apart!

At that moment, Su Yi’s keen senses discovered that one of the mysterious figures beneath the dome of heaven had attacked!

It was the youthful Daoist standing on a wooden sword. He’d attacked with all his might despite the endless time and space between them. Wherever he passed, sword qi ran rampant, and the starry sky collapsed. Even the power of spacetime shattered and split!

That terrifying pressure was so mighty that even Su Yi struggled to comprehend it. But before the young man got far, the mysterious power of countless Laws of the Natural Order formed a barrier, blocking the young Daoist’s path.

Boom!

The tribulation clouds dispersed, forming a rain of light that poured down in buckets. The visions deep within the dome of heaven dissipated and vanished into nothingness.

It was so faint that Su Yi almost suspected he was hearing things, but he just barely caught a sigh tinged with bitterness.

Meanwhile, the Sword of the Nine Hells returned to Su Yi’s sea of consciousness.

He wasn’t at all calm, as he sensed that the young Daoist... was after the Sword of the Nine Hells! He’d even gone so far as to offend and oppose the Laws of the Natural Order, all for the sake of seizing it!

Su Yi suddenly realized that although the gods couldn’t descend into the Immortal Realm, they knew

he

was here. Moreover, since arriving in the Immortal Realm, the calamitous, enormous tribulations he triggered every time he broke through had drawn the gods’ attention!

They even knew that the Sword of the Nine Hells was helping him resolve these otherwise insurmountable grand tribulations!!

Otherwise, there was no explaining why these mysterious figures had appeared during his tribulation. They were obviously targeting him!

Su Yi couldn’t help but frown at the realization.

Suddenly, he laughed, and a contemptuous look appeared on his face. “Those guys really can’t keep their cool, huh? All I did was undergo tribulation, yet they’re freaking out over every little thing I do.”

What need was there to fear the gods? So what if they were targeting him? Sooner or later, he’d fight his way to the River of Epochs and end them!

Whoosh!

The split tribulation clouds poured down like a waterfall, bathing Su Yi in a rain of light. When it landed, his cultivation underwent an earth-shaking transformation!

“He... broke through, just like that...” The Red Dragon Dao Monarch stood there in a daze, disbelief written all over her face.

A sword rose into the heavens, cleaving through a grand tribulation!

Everything the Red Dragon Dao Monarch had seen today was beyond the bounds of common sense. It was just too strange and taboo, to the point that she felt a bit dizzy.

Su Yi’s transformation continued for one day and one night.

His soul, cultivation, physique, and Laws of the Grand Dao all leaped into the Miracle Realm. He was now completely different from before.

The Miracle Realm was the fourth realm of the Immortal Dao! Those who reached it were known as Immortal Kings. Even prior to the Age of Fallen Immortals, they were prominent experts by the standards of the Immortal Realm as a whole!

Only Immortal Kings and above could speak and have the world heed their command. They could manifest the power of their Immortal Origin Space, superimposing their own heaven and earth over their surroundings. This ability was known as a Dao Domain.

Within their Dao Domains, Immortal Kings were like invincible rulers of creation!

As Su Yi sensed his transformation, he couldn’t help but take pride in what he’d just achieved. He’d broken into the MIracle Realm, becoming a king among immortals!

It might have seemed like the Miracle Realm was merely one step above the Saint Realm, but in truth, Immortal Kings were far beyond Immortal Lords.

Furthermore, in the present-day Immortal Realm, Great Realm experts couldn’t leave seclusion. Immortal Kings were thus the pillars of their sects!

Of course, Su Yi’s Immortal King cultivation was different from other people’s.

After all, even as an Immortal Lord, he’d cut down whole swaths of Immortal Kings, and he even killed the Fake Great of the Endless Swords Immortal Sect, Ancestor Shen Shang, and the divine-misfortune-afflicted Great Martial Stage Chu Yunjia!

Now, he was an Immortal King!

Advancing by a single major realm brought with it enormous changes. The moment Su Yi became an Immortal King, he had unique, unprecedented strength within the Miracle Realm. He’d have dazzled any era he appeared in!

Looking at my past lives, I see that I’ve forged an unprecedented path in the Miracle Realm! I wonder, now that I’ve broken through, would I be able to defeat someone like that Bai Liu woman relying purely on my own power?

Bai Liu, Divine Son Qing Xiao’s attendant, was a Great Unity expert from the God Domain. Back in the Kunwu Hidden Realm, she’d presented a major threat to Su Yi.

In fact, Su Yi wasn’t at all fit to be her opponent. He’d won anyway, of course, but that had little to do with his own power. Firstly, Bai Liu had descended into the Immortal Realm already badly injured; half of her body had been blasted to bits. Secondly, he’d used a divine talisman!

But now, Su Yi had nothing to fear from an opponent like her. He couldn’t be sure until he tried, but he felt that if he went all out, he would be able to take an opponent of her level down.

As for Great Martial experts... Well, they were no longer much of a threat to Su Yi. It was to the point that he had no need to fear them, or even attach any particular importance to them!

Of course, everyone was different. The Great Martial Stage didn’t lack for heaven-defying, unparalleled existences. Take the divine children who’d descended into the Immortal Realm—even with their cultivation bases suppressed to the Great Martial Stage, it wouldn’t do to underestimate them.

Su Yi then set those thoughts aside, took out a Dao-Refining Pearl, sat cross-legged, and started firming up his foundations.

The Dao-Refining Pearl contained the purest, densest Immortal King-level source power of the Grand Dao. It was unbelievably useful for establishing one’s foundations in the Miracle Realm.

Ordinarily speaking, refining even one pearl was enough to give an Immortal King first-rate foundations in the Grand Dao.

But it was obviously different for Su Yi. His body was like a bottomless pit. The energy within just one Dao-Refining Pearl was in no way enough. Barely ten minutes had passed, and he’d already refined four. Moreover, he showed no sign of slowing down.

The Sovereign proved his Dao with ease. I wonder how long it’ll be until he crosses the threshold of the Great Realm...

the Red Dragon Dao Monarch murmured to herself.

She’d already brushed upon the threshold of the Great Realm, but that didn’t mean she could cross it whenever she wanted. There was a reason the Great Realm was considered the realm of legends. Simply put, reaching it was far too difficult!

Suddenly, a thread of red light as faint as an ox hair appeared. It silently fell, landing on the Red Dragon Dao Monarch’s sleeves.

But she was so lost in thought that she didn’t notice.

That is, until the thread wrapped around her snowy white neck and yanked her into the air. At the same time, a giant, bloody hand silently manifested above her and reached for her neck.

It all happened too quickly! By the time the Red Dragon Dao Monarch realized what was happening, it was too late to dodge.

Kcch!

In that incomparably dangerous moment, a streak of sword qi exploded into being, and that bloody, giant hand was severed.

Before the Red Dragon Dao Monarch could react, the fallen hand recondensed into a giant gaping maw and attempted to devour her in a frenzy.

But then, a slash landed with unparalleled sharpness, piercing that gaping maw like a lightning bolt.

Bang!!!

The gaping maw shattered, filling the air with dust.

A hand grabbed the Red Dragon Dao Monarch by the shoulder and shot into the distance, dragging her along.

“Whatever you do, don’t look back!”

It was Su Yi.

He had a solemn look on his face, and he directly drew upon the power of the Tree of All Worlds to move even faster than possible through teleportation. He wanted to leave the Corpse-Strewn Ruins as soon as possible.

The Red Dragon Dao Monarch had a solemn look on her face, and her entire body was drenched in sweat. She was only just now realizing that the Sovereign had just dragged her back from the brink of death.

But she still didn’t understand what had just happened, or... why someone as strong as the Sovereign had chosen to flee without hesitation. Much less why he ordered her not to look back.

Don’t tell me something happened in that mysterious, unknown forbidden ground at the heart of the Corpse-Strewn Ruins?
