Boom! Boom! Boom!
Despite the continuous thunderbolts, Fang Xiu remained unmoved. His black hair danced wildly, his dark python robe fluttered in the wind, and the calm in the depths of his eyes remained as usual.
The void churned even more violently, and the sky seemed to be lower than usual. Deep within the tribulation clouds, obscure and terrifying tribulation light was intertwining and gathering.
Finally, a terrifying, ten-thousand-foot-long lightning spear materialized and descended upon the mortal realm.
It was as if a world-destroying thunder spear came from the heavens, bringing with it boundless destructive aura, sweeping across all directions, causing the void to ripple and producing a series of tremors that sounded like mournful cries.
Everyone felt a stinging pain in their eyes, and then everything went white, and they could no longer see anything.
Faced with this final tribulation, even Fang Xiu felt immense pressure. He no longer held back and directly revealed his strongest form.
boom!
A violent shockwave spread out, and his black hair instantly turned into a waterfall of silver hair. Blood and silver light burst forth from his eyes, and as his red and silver eyes opened and closed, his gaze was intense and arrogant like a god!
Terrifying black flames raged around him, transforming into black fire wings. At this moment, he resembled a great sun burning with black flames, illuminating this dark and oppressive world.
"This...this is the aura of a demon!!" Yun Qingwu was instantly horrified. She actually sensed the aura of a demon from a true god. What on earth was going on!?
This was the first time Fang Xiu had used his own power since arriving at the Void Moon Palace, and it could be considered that he had completely exposed himself.
Before Yun Qingwu could figure out what was going on, the terrifying world-destroying lightning spear had completely engulfed Fang Xiu.
For a moment, all was silent.
The next moment, the light of the calamity shattered, and Fang Xiu stood in the void as if reborn from the ashes. His slender figure shone brightly, its light soaring into the sky and illuminating the night sky, filling the air with boundless awe.
The immortal body... is complete!
Before anyone knew it, the thick, ominous clouds in the sky quietly dissipated, and the world returned to silence.
However, the real storm has only just begun.
Fang Xiu slowly landed, his calm eyes looking at Yun Qingwu and the others. At this moment, the area around the ruins of Xuan Yue Palace was already crowded with people.
The tribulation he just underwent to become an immortal has become common knowledge throughout the entire Void Moon Palace.
Yun Qingwu looked at Fang Xiu with mixed feelings, countless thoughts flashing through her mind in a short moment.
"Your Excellency, what is this...?"
Fang Xiu said calmly, "As you can see, you transcend tribulation and become an immortal."
Yun Qingwu's delicate body trembled, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Hearing the true god admit it himself, the elders of the Void Moon Palace were even more shocked and didn't know how to speak for a moment.
Could it be that... we've all been deceived all along? Is the so-called true god actually just a mortal who hasn't yet become an immortal?
But that doesn't make sense! What about all the miracles that were performed before?
This shows how successful Fang Xiu's lie was; even with the facts right in front of them, these people still couldn't believe it.
"Your Excellency, why... why did you undergo the tribulation to become an immortal?" Yun Qingwu asked hesitantly.
Seeing the facts laid bare before him, yet Yun Qingwu still called him a true god, Fang Xiu suddenly realized that this was forcing him to lie.
So he started lying.
"Because I not only lost my memory, but also suffered serious injuries, which caused my cultivation to regress."
Yun Qingwu was taken aback. So that's how it is...?
"Then why do you have the aura of a demon on you? Could it be that you once fought a great battle with a demon god, and your body was invaded by the demon god's power, which caused your amnesia and injuries?"
Seeing that others had already come up with all the reasons for him, what could Fang Xiu do?
"Yes, just as you said."
Everyone suddenly realized, it all matched!
Why does the True God always reveal the aura of the Spiritual Light Realm? Why is he undergoing the Tribulation of Immortality? It turns out that his cultivation has regressed due to injury.
As for why a Spiritual Light Realm cultivator could deprive an Immortal Emperor of a thousand years of lifespan? That's because an injured True God is still a god. As a god, isn't it reasonable for him to have a few powerful methods?
However, at this moment, everyone also had different thoughts about Fang Xiu.
Faced with a god who has lost his memory, they thought of deceiving the true god to serve them. But what if they faced a god who had lost his memory and whose cultivation had regressed? Would they be able to... take his place?
The god is so weak, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we kill the true god and obtain his divine status, wouldn't we also have the chance to become a god?
That's what they thought, but no one dared to take direct action.
If Fang Xiu hadn't taken action to strip Zhao Wuji of his thousand-year lifespan, Yun Qingwu and the others would have acted without hesitation. But now, they dared not.
If a true god can arbitrarily deprive an immortal emperor of their lifespan while still in the Spiritual Light Realm, wouldn't they be even stronger now that they've become an immortal?
But if you give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you can't bear to do so. This could very well be the closest you've ever come to becoming a god in your entire life.
The atmosphere became somewhat heavy for a moment. Yun Qingwu was caught in a dilemma. She didn't know whether she should take the gamble. If she won, she would become a god and rule the world. If she lost, she would die without a burial place.
At this moment, Fang Xiu's calm voice rang out: "It seems that you have harbored thoughts you shouldn't have. Could it be that you want to kill a god?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingwu and the others were shocked and quickly denied it.
“Your Excellency the True God has misunderstood. We are just too shocked for a moment and would never dare to have the thought of killing a god.”
"Oh? Is that so? That's a real pity. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. A weakened god is standing right before you. Don't you want to glimpse the mystery of becoming a god?"
The more Fang Xiu said this, the less Yun Qingwu and the others dared to make a move.
Yun Qingwu took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, and solemnly said to Fang Xiu, "Your Excellency True God is too kind. I am not the kind of person who forgets kindness. You have been kind to my Void Moon Palace. If I were to take advantage of your weakness and repay kindness with enmity, wouldn't I be ridiculed by the world?"
Furthermore, the situation in Kyushu is currently dire. Extraterrestrial demons frequently invade Kyushu, and Nanyue, situated on the border, suffers even more from their attacks. Now, with a true god like yourself presiding over it, as long as you recover your cultivation, you can surely ensure Nanyue's safety. Although I am merely a woman, I can distinguish right from wrong and would never, for my own selfish desires, plunge the entire Nanyue into chaos.”
His words were eloquent and moving to the ears of the listeners.
However, Fang Xiu didn't believe a word of it. But since Yun Qingwu didn't dare to make a move, he was willing to wear the True God's disguise for a few more days and continue to receive offerings from the Void Moon Palace.
At this moment, Yun Qingwu changed the subject again: "However, Your Excellency True God, although I am willing to do my best to help you recover your cultivation, the commotion you caused during your tribulation was too great. I'm afraid it won't be long before the news spreads throughout the world. At that time, there will definitely be some ambitious people who want to take action against you. Therefore, I want to order the entire Void Moon Palace to be sealed off and strictly prohibit the news from leaking out. What do you think?"
Listening to Yun Qingwu's concerned words, Fang Xiu knew very well that she was testing him. If he showed any weakness, he would be struck down immediately.
"No need, they're just a few clay chickens and earthenware dogs."
