The space within Qi Zhiheng's law range began to expand outwards, and a thin crack appeared in the outer shell that imprisoned him. The crack gradually widened under his pressure, and he focused intently on that crack, squeezing harder...
Qin Hanqiong hurriedly ran back to the main hall.
"Immortal Emperor! Something strange has happened!"
Upon seeing the newcomer, Yang Xingchen said, "Weren't you supposed to be keeping an eye on the tribulations outside? Why are you back?"
“There’s an unusual phenomenon in the sky. It doesn’t seem like Immortal Emperor Hanqing is undergoing tribulation.” Qin Hanqiong didn’t dare to hide anything and quickly told the truth.
"If it's not a tribulation? Then what could it be?" Yang Xingchen was a little confused, but there was indeed no sign of a tribulation outside.
"There's still no movement from Immortal Emperor Hanqing's side, but there seems to be a strange egg in the sky." Qin Hanqiong explained before asking, "Would you like to go out and take a look?"
Yang Xingchen thought for a moment: "Since it's not a tribulation of lightning, I'll go and check it out."
With that, he leaped up from the main seat in the hall and walked out of the hall.
Not only Yang Xingchen, but the other Immortal Emperors from the other heavens also seemed to have received the news and came out to check the situation. They greeted each other when they saw Yang Xingchen.
At this moment, the tribulation clouds in the sky formed a huge cocoon, with colorful streams of light seemingly flashing within them. The entire sky of the Nine Heavens was covered by the tribulation clouds, yet there was no sign of lightning striking.
One of the Celestial Emperors inquired, "What are your thoughts on the current situation, Celestial Emperor Anlan?"
Yang Xingchen shook his head and said, "I have never seen such a sight in my life."
"Some time ago, Immortal Emperor Hanqing had already taken back his cultivation from us. Could this strange phenomenon in the sky be unrelated to Immortal Emperor Hanqing?" someone asked.
The others also shared the same idea. They hadn't shown themselves before because they were afraid of attracting the attention of the Heavenly Dao. They only came out to check the situation after they noticed the abnormality outside.
Yang Xingchen shook his head: "I'm afraid this strange phenomenon has nothing to do with him."
Just then, a powerful force leaked out from the large cocoon formed by the clouds, startling all the Immortal Emperors present.
Colorful rays of light rolled within the tribulation clouds, and another layer of tribulation clouds gathered. Compared to the troublesome tribulation clouds of the previous ones, this layer of tribulation clouds appeared much smaller.
Lightning seemed to flash within the tribulation clouds, as if the first tribulation lightning was brewing.
A crack appeared in the giant cocoon in the sky, and a golden light shone through the crack, illuminating the still-unfinished tribulation lightning, which then dissipated in the blink of an eye.
The immortals below were all very curious about this strange dish.
"I wonder what kind of power it is that has such might, that it can scatter the tribulation clouds."
Just as the group was discussing, the faint golden light suddenly intensified, and the already fragile tribulation clouds vanished in an instant.
The cracks in the cloud cocoon were getting bigger and bigger, and something was about to break out from them.
Just as everyone was on edge, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Could this be divine power?" The speaker was a Celestial Emperor, and his tone was somewhat cautious, because even he himself was not sure whether this was divine power or not.
The other Immortal Emperors remained silent.
Yang Xingchen didn't say much, only saying, "Let's wait and see."
No one can explain it now. Even the tribulation clouds could be easily dispersed, so it seems that even immortal emperors like them are no match for them.
Since no one sensed any danger, although everyone was somewhat wary of the existence of the cloud cocoon, they had no intention of getting involved.
The golden light on the cloud cocoon grew stronger and stronger. This golden light not only blocked the prying eyes of the crowd, but also completely enveloped the cloud cocoon.
Enveloped in golden light, Qi Zhiheng noticed the Heavenly Dao's gaze upon him, but he did not prioritize the Heavenly Dao at that moment.
The outer shell formed by the chaotic sea is also a good thing. The laws that Qi Zhiheng controls seem to come alive, covering the outer shell that envelops him through the gaps.
His goal was clear: he wanted to devour the outer shell.
At this moment, he realized that he was actually very similar to the divine beast egg he had created using the consciousness of other immortals, and he was now as if he were inside an egg.
He knew that the eggshells of some divine beasts contained the inheritance of their clan, and even if Qi Zhiheng could only be considered the first generation, he would still have some hints and knowledge given by heaven and earth.
He certainly wouldn't use his own mouth to bite the eggshell, but rather he would use the laws he flexibly controlled to devour the laws that enveloped him.
He had already absorbed all the chaotic water in the Chaos Sea. Everything was just waiting for him to absorb the inheritance within the eggshell.
As the outer shell was gradually absorbed by him, more and more knowledge filled Qi Zhiheng's mind. While digesting the knowledge, his own strength was also increasing dramatically.
The surge in his own power and his control over this world boosted his confidence. After a long time, he absorbed all the outer shell of the egg, and Qi Zhiheng knew what to do next to successfully become a god.
The world he had always kept in his hands was tossed upwards by him.
The people of the immortal realm saw a point of light fly out of the cocoon of light.
Immediately afterwards, he saw it start from a black dot and gradually grow and rise.
The black spot continued to expand, and his face was finally revealed to everyone.
The strange dwellings of this world are self-evident. Its outer layer is shrouded in a colorful light, and inside there are mostly unnamed flowers and plants and never-before-seen creatures, all of which show that this world is different from the immortal realm.
But the visible part quickly rose above the cocoon of light, leaving only a muddy bottom for the immortals below.
This world was expanding, almost completely obscuring the sky above the nine heavens of the immortal realm. But as this world rose, it became smaller and smaller in people's eyes, and soon disappeared into the clouds.
The Celestial Emperors were very familiar with this; it was the primary condition for creating a world.
One of the Celestial Emperors said incredulously, "This... could this be the birth of the God Realm?"
The others shared the same idea.
"The cocoon of light hasn't disappeared yet."
After the world disappeared into the clouds, people's attention returned to the cocoon of light.
The golden light on the cocoon was gradually receding, as if a vortex was drawing all the golden light back into its body.
After the cocoon of light disappeared, only a figure remained suspended in mid-air.
Everyone was quite surprised. Although a strange phenomenon had occurred, no one could have imagined that there was actually a person inside.
Qi Zhiheng's clothes were formed from the power of chaos, which made his figure look handsome and otherworldly.
He was handsome, dressed in pure white, and when he hovered in mid-air, he exuded an ethereal aura that was difficult for ordinary people to match.
Coupled with the oppressive aura emanating from his entire body, the immortals below dared not look him in the eye, their knees buckled, and they all knelt down.
This was a submission that came from the very marrow of their bones, and even the Immortal Emperors present were not surprised, all kneeling down. It was more akin to a suppression of bloodlines, forcing them to submit.
Qi Zhiheng looked down and saw a scene of ten thousand people worshipping.
After the initial excitement subsided, his mind calmed down.
The clouds in the sky had long since disappeared along with the rising world.
The Heavenly Dao was constantly watching Qi Zhiheng's every move, and after he was exposed, the tribulation clouds gathered again, unwilling to give up.
Qi Zhiheng did not comment on the gathering tribulation clouds; he only had one final step left to break through to godhood.
Although the tribulation was brewing with great momentum, the overwhelming scene before it made the hundred-year-old tribulation clouds seem like just one star in the universe.
When the first lightning bolt struck, Qi Zhiheng neither dodged nor avoided it.
The lightning strike directly hit the top of his head. This was supposed to be an extremely tense scene, but the expected effect was not achieved.
As soon as the lightning tribulation touched Qi Zhiheng, it was absorbed by him through his body-tempering technique. The lightning tribulation not only did not cause him any harm, but instead became a stepping stone for his cultivation to improve.
A few days later, the second lightning tribulation struck, but it was absorbed by Qi Zhiheng.
As the lightning bolts fell one after another, Qi Zhiheng could sense that his cultivation level was also rising.
At the same time, Yang Yitian absorbed the original power very smoothly, and even countless powers were transferred to him through the Daoist Contract, causing his cultivation to increase rapidly.
His territory was isolated from the outside world, so he was completely unaware of the earth-shaking changes happening outside.
The only thing he could feel was his own ever-increasing cultivation level.
He's just a little short, just a little short of crossing the threshold to godhood!
Half a year has passed since the first lightning tribulation struck. One hundred and seven lightning tribulations have already occurred, with only the last one remaining before the tribulation ends.
It seemed that Heaven had unleashed the most powerful lightning tribulation it could create. The final lightning tribulation had been brewing for a full eighteen days.
However, Qi Zhiheng remained calm and composed at this moment, and the previous lightning tribulation had not even damaged the hem of his clothes.
Heaven seemed somewhat disheartened, unwilling to let Qi Zhiheng go so easily.
The final bolt of lightning struck, illuminating the surrounding area for miles around.
The lightning bolt gradually shrank until it was finally absorbed by Qi Zhiheng.
Ultimately, Heaven's will had to give up, and the calamity clouds gradually dissipated.
Then came the gift of Heaven. Heaven didn't want to give this procedure, but unfortunately, the laws it set were ones that even it couldn't break.
Golden light shone down and fell on Qi Zhiheng.
Qi Zhiheng had been waiting for this moment.
The final step to becoming a god is to combine these gifts with divine power to open the path to the realm of gods.
Of course, the realm of gods is now his property, so it's not a problem for him to go up there himself. But if he wants the immortals of the celestial realm to be able to ascend to the realm of gods in the future, this passage must be opened.
The immortals quickly witnessed the power of the divine force. As the gifts were showered down, Qi Zhiheng absorbed half of it and began to fly upwards. While ascending, he used the gifts of the laws and the Heavenly Dao to clear a path to the God Realm.
Finally, all people could see was a single path of light remaining in the air...
