Chapter 744 The Lotus of Myriad Tribulations

Chapter 744: Myriad Tribulations Reincarnation Lotus

"Dong!"

The moment Lin Fan dug into the ancient pool, a faint tremor resonated, accompanied by a terrifying beam of light shooting forth.

Like a burst dam in an ocean of cosmic stars, it seemed poised to submerge world after world, annihilate heaven and earth, and flood the Reincarnation Road.

Lin Fan was startled. Such fluctuations were formidable, surpassing the combat power of the Immortal King level, and actually carried the aura of an Immortal Emperor.

At close range, if a Quasi-Immortal Emperor were attacked like this, they would likely be severely injured and their body torn to pieces, showing just how mighty it was.

Fortunately, Lin Fan was an Immortal Emperor; his indestructible body glowed with flowing radiance, intertwining with Dao runes, as he raised his hand to block it.

"What is underneath? Could it be a lethal supreme weapon?" Lin Fan was surprised.

He stared intently. The so-called light beam was actually Dao runes, set after set, arranged outside the pool like a celestial tome.

As for its source, it lay at the bottom of the pool beneath the roots of the mysterious plant—a petrified ancient artifact!

It was utterly bizarre!

An ancient zither, completely turned to stone as if it had fallen in countless eons ago, so much so that even its strings appeared stony.

Yet, with no one playing it, it could still emit trembling vibrations to this day, instantly annihilating beings below the Emperor level; it was truly formidable.

"This is definitely an Immortal Emperor weapon!"

"What is its origin, and why was it abandoned in an ancient pool?"

Lin Fan was deeply puzzled.

"Dong, dong—"

At the same time, the sudden disturbance continued. The ancient zither at the pool's bottom kept playing, its vast and mighty power shaking the entire ancient land.

In an instant, stormy waves surged, and the Major Thousand Worlds seemed on the verge of destruction.

"Boom!"

The Void Realm exploded, and Chaos Qi surged as if the heavens and earth were being split open anew, resembling an Immortal Emperor unleashing great Divine Might.

The scale of the scene was immense. The stone zither hummed softly, severing the Reincarnation Road, extinguishing all living beings, and affecting the myriad worlds across the heavens!

Lin Fan had not expected that merely digging into an ancient pool would cause such an earth-shattering commotion.

The entire ancient hall was pierced by the multicolored runic light, and the Reincarnation Road suffered alongside it, collapsing and snapping.

"This is the result of the ancient zither's faint resonance intertwining with those roots!"

Lin Fan was moved and grew increasingly curious. What were this unknown plant and the stone zither, and what was their origin? He began to examine them closely.

"Rumble!"

The next moment, heaven fell and the earth cracked, ghosts wailed and gods howled, the ancient land exploded, and a beam of light pierced through the High Heavens, tearing apart the boundless cosmic sea.

In that pitch-black void, like a bottomless abyss, an enormous entity emerged, connecting to this place.

"What a massive root!"

Lin Fan's eyes gleamed brightly. It was immense, spanning the myriad worlds across the heavens, extending from beyond all realms to link every corner.

As for the roots in the pool earlier, they were merely a part of it, nothing more than the very tip.

Only now, as the sky collapsed and the earth caved in, and the Reincarnation Road fractured, did it reveal its true form—its main body was boundlessly vast, connecting all worlds.

"The Reincarnation Road leads to all realms… is it related to this?"

Lin Fan strongly suspected that this root was the very foundation of the Reincarnation Road, serving like an iron chain bridge connecting the myriad worlds across the heavens.

Furthermore, the cleaving of the world and the severing of Reincarnation were only secondary effects of the stone zither; the primary cause was the thrashing of the root.

Sure enough, once the devastation reached a certain point, they stopped, not truly intending to wipe out everything and destroy this place.

"The power of time… after the hall is pierced, it can reverse and restore itself."

Lin Fan pondered. He stood amidst the ruins, imperial light circulating across his flesh, transcendent and ethereal, looking like someone from beyond the mortal realm.

Such destructive power could not affect him in the slightest!

"Did the stone mill in the main hall temper the precious liquid just to nourish the mysterious plant?"

"No, that's not quite right either. Only a part of it is here, and that stone zither at the bottom of the pool isn't real—it's merely a projection."

Lin Fan looked thoughtful, sensing there were deep secrets involved. Then, he set off, climbing along the root to investigate.

Perhaps he could reach the High Heavens by means of it!

"Whoosh!"

He moved at extreme speed, walking upon the giant root as if on flat ground; nothing could hinder his steps.

Moreover, he could feel that the further he climbed, the more he was truly traversing Major Thousand Worlds, heading beyond all realms.

Along the way, it was far from peaceful. Boundless darkness enveloped the area, and wailing ghosts and howling wolves echoed incessantly, creating an eerie chill.

After some time, Lin Fan's body jolted as he sensed an auspicious and peaceful aura, with light gradually appearing ahead.

"Anomalous entity outside the trajectory of the Dao detected entering the High Heavens. Commencing elimination!"

Suddenly, a cold voice rang out without warning. It had no emotional inflection, sounding like it was emitted by an ancient machine.

Of course, the sound was unique, akin to Divine Thought transmission vibrated through Laws, which any living being could comprehend.

"The High Heavens!"

Lin Fan froze momentarily. Had he found it? Joy rose in his heart.

Legend had it that the High Heavens was a supreme domain, eternally enduring; outsiders seeking entry had to reach the End-of-the-Road Level before they could arrive.

However, his expression darkened. As a supreme and aloft Immortal Emperor, who dared to try and eliminate him? Were they tired of living?

"Whoosh!"

A dazzling silver arrow shot toward him, tearing through all directions, collapsing the Void Realm, and churning with Chaos.

This arrow was horrifying to the extreme; as its might emanated, the heavens threatened to burst apart, forming a boundless abyss.

Even if a Quasi-Immortal Emperor saw it, they would gasp in terror and feel their scalp tingle, for this was supreme, transcendent might!

It was no ordinary arrow, but a bolt of Chaos lightning formed from the most terrifying rules of order—a Heavenly Punishment!

Under normal circumstances, nothing could withstand it; even Dao Ancestor Level experts intruding here would be shot dead directly.

This was also why the High Heavens could not be entered by anyone below the End-of-the-Road Level!

However, Lin Fan was an Immortal Emperor, clearly not belonging to those ordinary ranks; with sufficient strength to meet the requirement, he could pass through.

"Boom!"

A punch struck the heavens. The powerful force shattered all dharmas; even a heavenly scourge descending from the supreme world would be blasted apart.

Yet, the killing tribulation did not recede. A bell materialized, suspended high above, and with a "Dang," ripples swept out like water.

"The Bell of Time!"

Lin Fan was surprised. This was the power of time; his skin began aging as a secret force sought to strip away his time and reverse the years.

Even the realms beyond all worlds trembled in terror, drifting toward decay and impending oblivion.

One could well imagine how formidable such a Dao elimination was!

"You still dare come at me? Presumptuous!"

Lin Fan barked in rebuke, slapping a palm toward the firmament and smashing into the massive bell; whatever rules, whatever space-time, all collapsed and shattered.

With a bang, the massive bell burst apart. Under this blow, even Major Thousand Worlds would be destroyed; there was no way to withstand it.

"Elimination failed!"

After those four words, the mechanical voice ceased to appear. The place became brightly lit, with ribbons of auspicious light, peaceful and serene.

One could see spiritual flora everywhere, glowing with vibrant luminescence, and strange trees rippling with emerald radiance, dotting the flowers and grass with a nose-assailing fragrance.

Lin Fan was moved; it felt as if he had stepped straight out of Hell and into Heaven.

One must know that in the tens of thousands of years since he had left the Immortal Domain, this was the first time he had seen a pure land outside his homeland.

"Have I really arrived in the High Heavens?"

Majestic mountains stood one after another, shrouded in immortal mist and steaming with auspicious Qi, while divine springs bubbled beneath the peaks.

Even more breathtaking was the scenery right before him!

An immortal lotus, exceptionally thick and sturdy, exuded a dense and sacred aura, rooted in secret fluid and standing even grander than towering ancient trees.

"This is—"
