This was the final Celestial Immortal Tribulation of the era. There was no way the Treasure-snatching Rock could stop a tribulation this intense. A rumble of purple Heavenly Thunder lured in the depths, violently bombarding the Treasure-snatching Rock. Then, the rock exploded.
A huge storm erupted in the Immortal Realm, wreaking pure havoc. This storm came so suddenly and was so terrible that most of the Earthly Immortals were absolutely astonished. The tribulation was not coming on account of the Immortal Realm, it had a specific objective.

Celestial Immortal Tribulation, Dharma Ending world, this is the Celestial Immortal Tribulation of the Omnipotent Sage!
In the depths of the Immortal Realm, after countless years, an ancient Celestial Immortal opened his eyes.

The final Celestial Immortal Tribulation of the era has finally arrived! The Omnipotent Sage is about to arise, and the Dharma Ending era is going to start, haha!

The ancient Earthly Immortal laughed mockingly at himself for some time before sighing lightly. After all, this would not be his era.


In that very moment, in the endless, hidden spacetime, many ancient Earthly Immortals were sighing in the same manner. In every era, a Celestial Immortal arose. In addition to the special Celestial Immortals such as the Primeval Sage and the Omnipotent Sage, there were other, more ordinary Celestial Immortals such as the Nine-headed Fierce Beast Sage and the Gale Sage. They had more or less all risen from among the ancient Earthly Immortals. In a short era such as this, as long as there was a small minority of practitioners from eras of great luck like the Jade Emperor Sage had been, they had an opportunity to become Celestial Immortals.
These ancient Earthly Immortals had been through many eras — countless years. They could not insist on Primeval Sage or Omnipotent Sage status. A Celestial Immortal Karmic Rank was fine. They had the time and patience for it.
However, they knew that once the Omnipotent Sage arose, the pneuma and fate of the era would completely disappear and condense into the Omnipotent Sage’s body. Therefore, in the Dharma Ending Age, there would be no new astonishing talent, nor would one with amazing luck emerge, either. Even the most ancient and mightiest Earthly Immortals had to conceal themselves in the secret, desolate spacetime, even hide away in extraterritorial areas, dragging out their feeble existences as they awaited the end of the era, so that they could painfully seek out an opportunity in the new era.

We have missed this era. All we can do is continue to wait for the new one!
Such is how the Earthly Immortals mulled over their loss. They were disappointed, they sighed, and most of all, they were jealous.

Hmph. Every single one of these guys is as slick as a ghost. It is not easy to take their power and use it!
the Gale Sage said blandly. He was at the brink of the Immortal Realm.

That’s not necessarily the case. If this guy really does give out benefits, then these guys will certainly not refuse!
the Nine-headed Fierce Beast Sage said.
There will always be those who cannot resist the temptation. Those old bastards might have planned thoroughly, but the temptation of the Celestial Immortal’s Way is really too much!


Who do you think will attack?
the Gale Sage asked.

The strongest one!
the Nine-headed Fierce Beast Sage said without a moment’s thought.
Because his strength has reached the critical point. He must be really grateful for this opportunity!


So he’ll be completely out of place, like a tiger on a plain bullied by dogs?
There was a glint of a strange expression on the Gale Sage’s face.
When has an Earthly Immortal ever had the guts to get involved in the affairs of a Celestial Immortal?


Has he still not become a Celestial Immortal himself?
The Nine-headed Fierce Beast broke out in laughter.


The golden shadow of a whip suddenly appeared and then disappeared. It seemed very peculiar.

Sure enough, it’s Jiang Shang!
The Nine-headed Fierce Beast Sage reacted as expected.
He couldn’t resist!


He’s resisted for the past 30 years. No one would be able to resist that long! Now he’s taking his chances. Maybe he’ll achieve Primeval Sage status in the next era!


Primeval Sage status? No way. He already reached his limit when he achieved Celestial Immortal status. Remember, the Primeval Sage and the Omnipotent Sage of each era are the Dominator’s most powerful competitors. He’s the one who committed the crime, he would never let him succeed!


We’re just entrusting the nobodies in the second layer of the vacuum with the primordial spirit. Who said anything about the Dominators?
Gale Sage said indifferently.
But you’re right. They would never give Jiang Shang a chance to become a Primeval Sage.


Let’s wait and see who the winner actually is.
The Nine-headed Fierce Beast Sage gave a slight sigh.
As one of the nine greatest Dominators that ever lived, Cundi is probably pretty depressed about how things have ended!


Without a doubt!
The Gale Sage raised his eyebrows.
Look, the God-striking Whip has been cracked!

From above, the God-striking Whip looked like a one-meter long bamboo whip. Its slightly yellowed appearance made it look like it had been cut from moso bamboo. It only needed to be cut lightly with a sharp object, and it could be broken in two.
But the unremarkable looking bamboo whip did not shatter when it landed in the middle of the violent Celestial Immortal Tribulation. Rather, it landed like a fish in water, swimming freely with the current.
The Celestial Immortal Tribulation!


It was difficult to say what this tribulation actually involved.
In the tribulation ocean, all types of Heavenly Thunder; Crimson Thunder, Thunder of Fate, and Abyss Thunder were interwoven into one. Flames flickered within the Heavenly Thunder. Heavenly Fire, Earth Fire, and Mysterious Fire, all burned together to create a vast sea of fire that intertwined with the thunder, acting as one to turn everything into nothingness.
There was an all-encompassing liquid light. It was pure black, but it concealed within itself a multitude of colors. Swept up by the similarly black Wild Wind, it started to permeate the Immortal Realm.
A faint layer of dust appeared indistinctly. Although the ochre hued dust was not thick, it felt more dangerous than the thunder, fire, wind, and water combined.
He sucked in the air between his teeth and spoke.
Tribulation dust has just appeared. Just as we expected, it looks like the Omnipotent Sage’s tribulation will be unusual!


You’re right. You lack moral decency, and when you encountered the Celestial Immortal Tribulation, the tribulation dust was the last thing to appear. This tribulation is formidable, the dust has already appeared. I don’t know if this guy will be able to withstand it!


It wasn’t easy for the others either. But don’t forget, he is one of the nine ancient dominators. Naturally he has a way of navigating a tribulation this bad!
The Nine-headed Fierce Beast Sage had full confidence in Taoist Cundi, and with good reason.
Cundi sat completely still and cross-legged on a plain, facing the Celestial Immortal Tribulation. The auspicious lights hanging down from the Tree of Seven Wonders atop his head protected his whole body. The formidable tribulation had no way of shaking the auspicious lights.
If it were only a Divine Tribulation, things would be simple.

The Tree of Seven Wonders has remained untouched for thousands of tribulations. Even the Omnipotent Sage’s Celestial Immortal Tribulation cannot shake it. Today we widen our scope!
The Nine-headed Fierce Beast Sage and the Gale Sage both sighed to themselves.


But the thing they cared about most was whether the God-striking Whip, the one that looked like dried up bamboo, could really be as effective as legend said.
Could the Tree of Seven Wonders, allegedly unbroken for thousands of tribulations, stand the test of the whip? After all, this whip’s power had been a thing of legends for hundreds of millions of years.
Whack!
The Celestial Immortal Tribulation was underway. The God-striking Whip crashed down onto the Tree of Seven Wonders. The auspicious lights it emitted reacted immediately and started to undulate.

Huh?
Cundi raised his eyebrows, clearly surprised. But he was not flustered. The whip let out a piercing purple light that eroded the auspicious lights.
Hmph. Jiang Ziya, you are but a worthless Earthly Immortal, a lowly creature. And yet you dare to attack me?

The auspicious lights let out a great radiance to counteract the attack of the God-striking Whip. They were by no means less powerful.
This damaged the God-striking Whip badly, and its purple rays dimmed abruptly. The whip, which had passed through the whole tribulation undamaged, started to show tiny cracks. The whip’s master was in the depths of the Immortal Realm spacetime. He suddenly trembled, and then exploded into blood fog as far as the eye could see. All that was left was a bloody chunk of flesh about the size of a fist. The flesh began to wriggle, and before long it had completely transformed back into a human figure.

Nice, nice! Luckily, I was already prepared. Otherwise, I might have died for real, haha. By the way, your counterattack was so fierce it seemed conspicuous, as if to make up for your weakness. You’ve spent all your force, now!
He ground his teeth fiercely until they bled and beat his chest furiously. His face suddenly turned pale, and he spat out a thick mouthful of flesh and blood. The auspicious lights dimmed, and the retreating God-striking Whip appeared to have just received some mighty backup power, as if it had swallowed a huge recovery pill. Purple light burst out and pressed down on the Qi Power of the auspicious light. It turned into a purple stream and shot straight into the auspicious light. The rays died out. The whip had beaten its way straight through to the Seven Wonderful Techniques themselves.
Boom!
Of course, the Tree of Seven Wonders was not to be trifled with so easily. The moment the purple light hit its core, a light a hundred times more glaring than that of the whip burst out. Under its intense glare, the whip shattered.


But in that same moment, the God-striking Whip had struck a hole into the Tree of Seven Wonders, and the Celestial Immortal tribulation came gushing into the hole. The Tree of Seven Wonders began to shake.
Cundi grasped hold of the tree and yelled,
Come on!

The auspicious light reappeared, and forcefully expelled all of the tribulation. Cundi’s cheeks were trembling.

It’s absolutely ridiculous that the Highest Grade Celestial Devil would come up with such a plan!
