Boom!
The ear-piercing rumble continuously echoed, enveloping the entire Nine Heavens Realm. Hearing the sound from the sky, countless living beings trembled in fear, their hearts filled with dread and immense fright.
The oppressive feeling that reached their souls made them feel extremely hopeless and powerless, and their hearts were filled with awe!
This seemed to be an innate human emotion, a feeling that arises when facing an unknown or irresistible force.
As time continued to pass, the lightning became increasingly vast, while the Pure Yang Root’s brilliance gradually dimmed, revealing its original appearance.
It was an extremely unique object. The whole body was only the size of a fist, as if it had been cut by some sharp object. Beneath it were countless root tendrils, resembling the roots and stems of some kind of herb, dense and thick!
In fact, the Pure Yang Root is the root of some kind of heavenly treasure, not a whole object. It is the root of a heavenly treasure known as the Pure Yang Flower. Although its fame is relatively ordinary, it is, in truth, a highly sought-after treasure in the Immortal Domain.
The Pure Yang Flower is extremely unique, taking root in the Great Dao, absorbing it as nourishment. After countless years, it blossoms and bears fruit, the fruit being called the Pure Yang Fruit.
This is an extremely rare heavenly treasure. For those cultivating the Pure Yang Dao, it is the most precious treasure. If one can refine it, their cultivation path in the Dao will be unimpeded, with no obstacles in the future!
However, such a fruit is extremely rare and difficult to find. Every time it appears, it causes a huge sensation, sweeping through the heavens.
“It’s going to end!” Jiang Chen looked ahead and said indifferently.
The lightning became stronger and stronger, while the Pure Yang Root grew weaker and weaker. This indicated that the Pure Yang Root was no longer able to withstand the power of the Heavenly Tribulation.
“If no one interferes, perhaps it can survive the Heavenly Tribulation!” the Sect Master of the Supreme Dao Sect said in a low voice.
“Impossible!”
“Do you know why the Pure Yang Root fled from the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment?”
“It was already heavily damaged when it emerged! It has no possibility of surviving the Heavenly Tribulation anymore!”
“If no one interferes, it might have survived the Heavenly Tribulation!”
“However, the Heavenly Tribulation involves the Nine Heavens Realm and the entire Great Dao. The Pure Yang Root is so precious that it is destined not to pass through the Heavenly Tribulation peacefully, unless protected by a powerful practitioner!”
“Its tribulation is not so much a Heavenly Tribulation as it is the tribulation of all beings!” Jiang Chen said indifferently.
Such a heavenly treasure, once undergoing a tribulation, would inevitably involve the whole world. All the Dao would rumble, and the laws would tremble. This also meant that it would attract the attention of countless powerful practitioners.
If it were an ordinary heavenly treasure, perhaps no one would care. But something on the level of the Pure Yang Root was impossible to ignore.
Even if they did not intervene, the three ancient imperial clans would rush over immediately. Besides, to prevent the three ancient imperial clans, various forces would also gather at the scene. In other words, the Pure Yang Root’s tribulation involved not just the Heavenly Tribulation, but also the tribulation of living beings. This tribulation was the most terrifying one. Even if it survived the Heavenly Tribulation, it could not withstand the tribulation of living beings. This meant that no matter what, the Pure Yang Root could not survive.
“Heaven wants it dead! No wonder the more precious the heavenly treasure, the less likely it is to survive the tribulation!” the Pure Yang Holy Master said solemnly.
He had not realized before that it was not only difficult to give birth to intelligence but also difficult to withstand the Heavenly Tribulation. Now it seems that the first two are nothing; only the tribulation of living beings is the greatest calamity.
Without the protection of a powerful practitioner, it would be nearly impossible to pass through this tribulation. However, heavenly treasures themselves are extremely precious.
How could they obtain the protection of powerful practitioners when so many people want to obtain them for themselves?
For other powerful practitioners, not swallowing them up is already considered good. Overall, the more precious the heavenly treasure, the harder it is to become a true living being.
Of course, there are exceptions, but such exceptions are extremely rare and can be counted on one’s fingers.
As time passed, more and more powerful practitioners arrived. Immortal families, immortal dynasties, and other ancient imperial clans all gathered at the scene. Watching the pervasive Heavenly Tribulation, everyone’s expressions varied.
“Because of the involvement of the ancient imperial clans, the Heavenly Tribulation has reached unimaginable levels, ensuring the Pure Yang Root cannot survive!”
“It’s a pity it failed. There have always been rumors that everything in the world can transform into living beings, yet we’ve never seen a heavenly treasure become one. Seeing it now, only to witness its failure, is truly regrettable!”
“It’s destined not to survive this Heavenly Tribulation, no matter what. Even if it survives the Heavenly Tribulation, it cannot withstand these ancient imperial clans, these immortal forces.”
“These people are covetous, ensuring it can never pass the tribulation in its lifetime unless protected by an emperor!”
“An emperor’s protection? How is that possible!”
“Indeed, it’s impossible! That’s why this is an incomplete path, doomed to fail!”
“Compared to the Pure Yang Root, the ancient imperial clans are actually quite miserable. This Heavenly Tribulation is unimaginable, and even many emperor weapons have been severely damaged. Competing for it afterward is mostly unrealistic!”
“These ancient imperial clans have suffered heavy losses. I wonder if they regret it!”
“They must regret it. They may not get the treasure and end up severely damaged!”
“That’s true!”
Many strong practitioners looked at the four ancient imperial clans with slight pity.
To be honest, if it were them, they’d probably be cursing too. They gained nothing and instead suffered a wave of the Heavenly Tribulation’s attacks. Who could endure that?
“It’s over!” Someone’s words rang out, as if spoken with divine authority.
In an instant, the lightning ceased, and the dark clouds dispersed. The Pure Yang Root, once shining like a great sun, lost its luster, appearing like some ordinary herbal root, with nothing unique except for a faint glow that seemed to hint at its past glory.
After enduring the Heavenly Tribulation, the intelligence of the Pure Yang Root was completely erased, reduced to a normal heavenly treasure.
As the Heavenly Tribulation ended, many powerful practitioners, as if acting in concert, began to make their move.
Boom!
The void shattered as one giant hand after another reached out, all aiming to seize the Pure Yang Root.
“Huang Tian, hand it over to me. If you ever go to war with the True Dragon Clan, we of the Golden Crow Clan will stand by your side!” a strong practitioner from the Golden Crow Clan said in a deep voice.
“Rubbish! You think I believe your lies?” Huang Tian was already full of anger. He had gained nothing and had been struck countless times by the Heavenly Tribulation. His mindset had long since changed, losing the grace he once had.
Now, he only wanted to obtain the Pure Yang Root. As for other matters, he did not care. Moreover, he naturally could not trust the so-called promise of the Golden Crow Clan. Even if they swore a chaotic oath, they might not keep it. The Golden Crow Clan’s promise was not worth the Pure Yang Root.
Boom!
Just as the crowd was fighting over it, a silver light descended and instantly seized the Pure Yang Root, as if it had never appeared.
“The Primordial Holy Land!”
Seeing the disappearance of the Pure Yang Root, Huang Tian’s eyes turned red instantly.
Others might not know, but how could he not? This was definitely the work of the Primordial Holy Land! Only their emperor weapon could directly snatch the Pure Yang Root from everyone’s grasp.
“Hand over the Pure Yang Root, Primordial Holy Land!” The strong practitioner of the Golden Crow Clan, backed by an emperor weapon, was filled with killing intent, staring intently at the people of the Primordial Holy Land.
“If you don’t want endless conflict, hand over the Pure Yang Root!”
“Primordial Holy Land, do you wish to bear the wrath of our four ancient imperial clans?”
The Vermillion Bird and White Tiger Clans were also red-eyed. They had already suffered the baptism of the Heavenly Tribulation, which was enough to make them curse. Especially since this Heavenly Tribulation was caused by the Primordial Holy Land, everyone was absolutely furious.
