Chapter 1908: Immortal Astral, tenth sun, Shocking the World (Part 1)
The land of Tianzun Nirvana has existed for eternal ages, always present within this strange void. Only by spreading their Divine Sense straight into the nine heavens can a Cultivator of the Tianzun level step into this place.
Regarding the principles behind the structure of this place, very few have been able to fully fathom it to this day. It is only known that this place was created by the Immortal Ancestor of the past, modeled after the Primordial God Realm, to allow the descendants of the Immortal race to adapt in advance, so that more Great Heavenly Venerate Cultivators might emerge.
For countless years, many Tianzun Cultivators have come to this land of Tianzun Nirvana multiple times to challenge the palaces layer by layer, in order to bear witness to their own cultivation and make a name for themselves in the Immortal land.
Tianzun Nirvana is a place highly valued by the current five Great Heavenly Venerates. Nearly ninety percent of those they recruit under their command are Tianzuns who have broken through a certain level.
Amidst the gazes of hundreds of Cultivators gathered outside the first palace of Tianzun Nirvana, the long rainbow transformed by Wang Lin whistled through the air, instantly arriving outside the first level. The long rainbow dissipated, turning into his figure as he landed on the ground.
The moment he stepped onto the ground outside this first palace, the gazes of the surrounding Tianzun Cultivators all turned towards him.
Wang Lin's expression remained normal as he swept his gaze across the surroundings. He recognized some of these Tianzun Cultivators, but most of them he had never seen before. After all, over these years, people had been coming and going from the land of Tianzun Nirvana; some left, while others returned to challenge the palaces.
If someone he recognized smiled and cupped their hands towards Wang Lin, he would respond with a smile. As Tianzun Cultivators, since they had no grudges against each other, they usually liked to make acquaintances, unless they were of a reclusive nature.
Moreover, although Wang Lin had disappeared for the past dozen years or so, the small-scale sensation he caused back then by breaking through four levels in a row was enough to make some Tianzuns willing to befriend him.
However, in the eyes of some Tianzuns, breaking through four levels was still not enough, so quite a few people had slightly cold expressions.
"I heard people talking about this White-Haired Tianzun a few years ago. He failed the first time he stepped into this first palace, but subsequently broke through four levels in a row. He is definitely no ordinary person!"
"Four levels? So what if it's four levels? Which of us hasn't broken through this fourth level? It's just a gimmick caused by this person breaking through four levels in a row after failing previously."
"That's true. I predict this White-Haired Tianzun will reach at most the fifth level this time."
The surrounding Tianzun Cultivators watched Wang Lin one by one. Those who wanted to befriend him communicated via Divine Thought. Among them, some acknowledged Wang Lin, while others looked down on him. There was a variety of opinions, but once cultivation reached the Tianzun level, they would never easily reveal their thoughts on their faces, ensuring no one could discern anything.
In the distance, that Bamboo Forest Tianzun sat there in silence, his gaze fixed on Wang Lin. A moment later, he closed his eyes and stopped looking.
He would not underestimate any Tianzun Cultivator, but he did not believe that Wang Lin could break through the seventh level as he had. For those below the seventh level, even if he cared, it was limited.
Wang Lin did not immediately challenge Tianzun Nirvana. Instead, he stood outside the first palace, looking up at the layers of Tianzun Nirvana palaces. They grew higher and higher, and the location of the ninth level was a blur.
Over these years, Wang Lin had already learned that this Tianzun Nirvana had a total of nineteen levels. On the current Immortal land, there were fewer than sixty people who could break through the ninth level. These people were all at the absolute Peak of the Tianzun level. If they could take one more step and break through the tenth level, they could become a Leap Tianzun!
Every time one of them came to this Tianzun Nirvana, it would cause a sensation among all the Tianzuns. After all, witnessing the emergence of a Leap Tianzun was an extremely rare event for all the Tianzuns who could see it.
It might even attract the attention of a Great Heavenly Venerate, who might condense their Divine Thought to come and witness it personally.
However, there were only forty-eight Leap Tianzuns on the Immortal Astral continent. For many years, a forty-ninth had never appeared, which showed the difficulty of this tenth level.
Only Leap Tianzun Cultivators could challenge the eleventh level and above after breaking through the tenth level. Rumor had it that if one could step into the final nineteenth level, there would be a great possibility of becoming a Great Heavenly Venerate in the future! Moreover, a Leap Tianzun Cultivator who could break through the nineteenth level possessed combat power that even a Great Heavenly Venerate would be unwilling to easily confront!
However, even among Leap Tianzuns, there was no one who had reached the nineteenth level yet. The one who had reached the furthest, the Ming Dao Zun among the Leap Tianzuns, had stopped at the sixteenth level and could not break through.
For tens of thousands of years, no one had been able to surpass this Ming Dao Zun. On the current Immortal land, Ming Dao Zun was hailed as the person most likely to become a Great Heavenly Venerate; some even said he was the sixth sun of the Immortal race!
His fame, even if not equal to that of a Great Heavenly Venerate, made him the most prominent figure below the Great Heavenly Venerates. He was highly valued by the Immortal Emperor and the Eight Extremes Great Heavenly Venerate, who had spent a great price to recruit him under their command. They did not treat him the same as ordinary Tianzuns or Leap Tianzuns, but rather treated him with even greater courtesy.
"This time, going to the Immortal Imperial City, I might encounter this renowned Ming Dao Zun. This person is hailed as the number one among Leap Tianzuns; he must be extraordinary…" Wang Lin's eyes flashed imperceptibly.
"This time, I will shock the world! Let me first see how many levels I can break through using my own strength before putting on the Soul Armor!" Wang Lin's expression was calm. He closed his eyes, and a moment later, opened them abruptly, his eyes filled with a bright light. His body flickered, turning into a long rainbow that flew directly from outside the first palace, rapidly heading upwards.
As his figure flew out, quite a few surrounding Tianzuns focused their attention on him, but most of them withdrew their gazes, closed their eyes, and meditated, not paying too much attention.
That Bamboo Forest Tianzun also closed his eyes and meditated, not looking.
In the land of Tianzun Nirvana, if one had previously passed through it, one could skip those levels when challenging it again, without being hindered by the pressure emitted from within each palace.
Wang Lin's body rapidly ascended, passing over the first four levels and appearing directly outside the fifth palace in the sky. Without the slightest hesitation, he stepped inside.
The moment he entered this fifth level of Tianzun Nirvana, his vision blurred. The feeling from the first four levels back then reappeared. A moment later, when his vision cleared, he found himself still in a void of starry sky.
"The fourth level back then was formed by the condensation of thirty-six Cultivation Planets, and within them were even golden stars! Each of those golden stars possessed a Fusion power no weaker than all the Cultivation Planets of that level combined. I wonder how many golden stars there are on this fifth level!" Wang Lin, in this void of starry sky, flashed his gaze and looked ahead.
He saw that in the starry sky ahead, forty-five Cultivation Planets suddenly changed their trajectories, coming rapidly from all directions with a deafening whistling sound.
In the process of their approach, five Cultivation Planets suddenly erupted with dazzling golden light, instantly turning completely into golden stars. These five golden stars exuded a pressure that seemed to make the void tremble, and along with the other Cultivation Planets, they rushed straight towards Wang Lin.
"Five, huh…" Wang Lin stood in the void, his expression normal. The moment the many Cultivation Planets whistled towards him, he suddenly raised his right hand. The instant his right hand was raised, his Empty Tribulation Realm cultivation erupted with a roar.
"One, two, three… eleven, twelve, thirteen!" Wang Lin clenched his right hand into a fist, and amidst the echoing thumping sounds, thirteen Divine Abilities condensed within this punch. At this moment, the aura of his cultivation was still in the Early Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm, but it was still climbing.
"After reaching the Middle Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm, I haven't fully unleashed it once yet. Let's see how many Divine Abilities I can condense into a single punch." Wang Lin's white hair danced, his clothes fluttering as if swept by a wild wind. His cultivation aura erupted completely, soaring from the Early Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm directly to his current Peak, the Middle Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm!
"The fourteenth!" A Divine Ability was added into Wang Lin's right fist. Immediately after, the fifteenth, sixteenth, and seventeenth Divine Abilities, without the slightest pause, condensed as Wang Lin's cultivation climbed to the Middle Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm.
In the blink of an eye, it was twenty-one!
"According to my calculations, for every Realm increase in Empty Tribulation Realm cultivation, I can fuse nine more Divine Abilities into my body… My limit in the Early Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm was nine Divine Abilities. After reaching the Middle Stage, it can increase to eighteen. However, because of the appearance of the Gold and Wood Origins previously, my cultivation has slightly improved, allowing me to forcibly condense four more… That makes a total of twenty-two!" Wang Lin's eyes flashed as the forty Cultivation Planets around him whistled closer and closer.
"The twenty-second!" Wang Lin's eyes narrowed, and a booming sound erupted from his clenched right fist as the twenty-second Divine Ability directly condensed!
A heaven-shaking force radiated from his fist; it seemed this punch was enough to blast open a piece of the void.
"I should still be able to… The twenty-third!!" Wang Lin let out a low roar. He did not immediately launch an attack against the approaching Cultivation Planets but leaped upwards. In this instant, the veins on his entire right arm bulged, as if immense power was flowing within his right arm, replacing blood as it flowed rapidly through the blood vessels, finally condensing in his fist and emitting a roar.
Amidst this roar, Wang Lin's hair danced, his eyes shining brightly. Inside his fist, suddenly, the twenty-third Divine Ability condensed!
"Twenty-three Divine Abilities is the limit of my current cultivation! This extra one is due to my multiple insights in the Donglin Pool, which caused the other Origins to also increase slightly."
Wang Lin looked down. Below him, the forty Cultivation Planets were whistling up from below. Among them, those five golden stars were exuding a powerful pressure. As they approached, they were already less than a few hundred feet away from Wang Lin.
"For this fifth level, sending out one True Body is enough!" A layer of overlap appeared on Wang Lin's body in an instant, and his Five Elements True Body was suddenly manifested. The moment it manifested, Wang Lin's clenched right fist struck towards the Cultivation Planets below!!
Twenty-three Divine Abilities fused into one punch, plus the superposition of the Clone, was equivalent to forty-six Divine Abilities, rushing straight towards those forty Cultivation Planets!!
Amidst that intense roar, the void collapsed, and endless golden light rose, piercing through this starry sky, breaking open this void, and rapidly spreading out from the fifth palace of this Tianzun Nirvana land, shrouding the entire Tianzun Nirvana, seen by those hundreds of Tianzuns below as they all looked up.
