Chapter 441: Dugu Bo achieved supreme status, and Ye Chanxi became a saint!



 How quickly they gathered together before, how quickly they dissipate now!

“This little girl has succeeded. The human race is about to add another saint, and it’s a female saint who has overcome the tribulation of a saint! It’s not easy!”

Dugu Bo opened his mouth and said.

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, with a hint of joy on his face.

Although he has been paying attention to Ye Chanxi's journey through the Saint's Tribulation, he also knows that Ye Chanxi is safe.

But it wasn’t until this moment, when everything had settled, that he truly felt relieved.

 The tribulation of Ye Chanxi has been accomplished, the path to enlightenment is worry-free, and the fruits of the sage’s path are within reach.

 In an instant.

The vast calamity cloud covering the endless starry sky dissipated rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, 80% to 90% of it had been dispersed.

 Ye Chanxi's figure standing in the starry sky also appeared in Jiang Yuan's eyes.

At this time, she was still wearing a black skirt, with the skirt covering her ankles.

 She closed her eyes slightly, and there were rays of fairy light intertwined on her body.

Deep in the distant starry sky, vast purple energy swept in and gathered.

 Golden lotuses emerged from the void and bloomed.

The sound of the avenue sounded, and Jiang Yuan instantly felt a lot of enlightenment pouring out of his mind.

 Subsequently, countless raindrops fell from the sky and dispersed in the starry sky.

Countless green sprouts suddenly appeared on the floating meteorites, and they were wrapped in greenery in the blink of an eye.

 “A vision has come from heaven, and the saint’s path and fruition have been achieved!”

Dugu Bo opened his mouth and said.

Jiang Yuan came back to his senses from listening to the sound of the avenue.

  【As a result of listening to the sound of the great road, you have gained some insights and your accumulation has increased】

  【As a result of listening to the sound of the great road, you have gained some insights and your accumulation has increased】

  【.】

  【Your mastery of the Avenue of Stars has been improved, and the progress has increased by 0.05%. From 13.34%→13.39%】

  【Your mastery of Thunder Avenue has been improved, and the progress has increased by 0.03%. From 24.47%→24.50%】

  【Your mastery of the Avenue of Cause and Effect has been improved, and the progress has increased by 0.06%. From 10.01%→10.07%】

  【Your mastery of the Space Avenue has been improved, and the progress has increased by 0.01%. From 13.68%→13.69%】

  【.】

 Jiang Yuan was delighted when he saw the prompt in front of him.

 This is a good harvest.

 He then glanced at his panel.

  【Avenue】: Avenue of Stars (13.39%) Avenue of Cause and Effect (10.07%) Avenue of Space (13.69%) Avenue of Swallowing (18.85%) Avenue of Thunder (24.50%) Avenue of Creation (8.01%)

 The mastery of each avenue has increased to varying degrees.

Jiang Yuan also knew that the extent of the increase was related to the profoundness of the avenue and the degree of his mastery.

 The deeper the mastery of the Dao, the more difficult it is to make progress!

 But the more terrifying the power, the more it touches the essence of the world and has the authority to control the origin of the world.

 Jiang Yuan then closed the panel and continued to listen quietly to the sound of the avenue.

This kind of vision can only occur if one attains enlightenment and is sanctified and receives blessings from God.

 For observers, the sound of Dao Dao is a rare opportunity.

 Including the rain falling from the sky, it is also an opportunity.

If a practitioner in the Linghai Realm is here, he can break through several realms in a row if he gets this opportunity.

 But for Jiang Yuan at this time, the impact of this level of effect on him has been ignored.

 Only the sound of the sound of the avenue has a good effect on him.

 A moment later.

 Yechan River is surrounded by vast purple colors and is surrounded by fairy light.

 She walked towards Jiang Yuan step by step.

Wherever he passed, golden lotuses bloomed and sweet rain fell from the sky. All the meteorites along the way were instantly covered in green. The boundless green seemed to cover a starry sky, spreading and growing towards Jiang Yuan.

Ye Chanxi is like stepping on a road paved with greenery, and at the same time the sound of the avenue sounds around her.

  【Name】:Ye Chanxi

 【Realm】:The first level of saint realm

 【Innate Luck】: Taiyin inheritance (gold) Immortal Lord reincarnation (gold) Heavenly Demon Lord (gold) Yin-Yang divine body (gold) Superb understanding (purple) Overwhelming the country and the city (blue).

Jiang Yuan glanced at Ye Chanxi's panel. Her realm suddenly changed from the ninth level of the Cave Heaven Realm to the first level of the Saint Realm.

 At the same time, two innate lucks were also removed from her panel.

That is the purple innate luck given by the Supreme List and the innate luck given by the Tianjiao battlefield.

  Previously, she was ranked third on the Supreme List and received the body protection from the Supreme List, which meant she had the purple innate luck.

Defeat the geniuses on the battlefield, and you can also seize the luck of those geniuses to bless yourself.

Now with her breakthrough in realm and entering the realm of saint, her name has naturally disappeared from the list of supreme beings.

 Because once you enter the realm of saints, you lose the qualification to be on the list, and your name will naturally disappear from it.

 At the same time, the blessing of Tianjiao battlefield also disappears.

Stepping into the realm of a saint and attaining the fruit of the saint's way is considered to be a attainment of the way.

Existences at the level of saints had a transcendent status even in ancient times.

 Once you have attained the path of sainthood and become a saint, you have the qualifications to become an immortal.

In ancient times, if a saint was guided by a great religion in the upper world, he could directly transform into an immortal.

 Condensing the immortal body, becoming a true immortal, and enjoying a long life.

at the same time.

 At the moment when Yechan River enters the holy realm.

The rankings on the Supreme List naturally changed, and the words Ye Chanxi, who was ranked third, slowly disappeared from the Supreme List.

  The practitioners ranked third and later will immediately move up one place in the ranking.

Such a big change instantly caused an uproar in the five regions and all over the world.

Countless people looked at the changes in the Supreme List and made many speculations!

 “I succeeded!”

Ye Chanxi stopped in front of Jiang Yuan with a smile on her lips.

 The aura exuding from the body also contains a touch of majesty, the aura is great and sacred.

 Jiang Yuan nodded: "Awesome!"

Hearing Jiang Yuan's compliment, Ye Chanxi's face suddenly filled with a smile.

Then Jiang Yuan asked again: "Which avenue do you use as the foundation of Tao and Fruit?"

Ye Chanxi smiled slightly: "Yin Yang Avenue!"

 Dugu Bo on the side suddenly opened his eyes when he heard this.

He ​​was about to speak, but then he closed his jaw tightly and remained silent by default.

Jiang Yuan and Ye Chanxi both noticed Dugu Bo's strange behavior, and a smile appeared on their faces at the same time.

 "Laugh! Laugh! Laugh! You're laughing your **** off!" Dugu Bo couldn't help scolding him, and then said: "You are a monster. I didn't expect you, a fellow Taoist, to be a little monster too!"

“Based on the Yin-Yang Dao, she is invincible in the same realm. Except for a few people in this world, who can kill her?”

At this time, Jiang Yuan and Ye Chanxi looked at each other and smiled immediately.

At this moment, Dugu Bo said again: "You little girl has now become a saint. It stands to reason that the new Holy City must hold a banquet, and the interests of the major forces also need to be re-divided, and you must be familiar to the saints! What are your thoughts now?"

 Ye Chanxi looked at Jiang Yuandao: "Please help me decide!"

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan pondered for a few breaths, his thoughts racing in his mind.

 The new holy banquet will inevitably bring together all the saints. For me, it is a great opportunity to harvest the power of the saints' luck.

 Thinking of this, he had already made a decision.

 “Then follow the rules and hold a banquet!”

Ye Chanxi nodded: "Okay, then I'll listen to you! But you have to accompany me then!"

 Jiang Yuan nodded: "No problem, I should attend too!"

Hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Ye Chanxi suddenly showed a faint smile on her lips.

 Jiang Yuan turned to look at Dugu Bo again: "Dean, do you want to go through the Supreme Tribulation now?"

Dugu Bo nodded: "Yes! But not here!"

He then said: "Although this place is far away from the Five Realms and Four Seas, according to ancient historical records, the Supreme Tribulation will affect a star field. Even if it is several star fields away, the top powerhouses will notice such a movement!"

“If I survive the Supreme Tribulation here, I will definitely alarm the five regions and the four seas! Even the three sacred mountains will be aware of it.”

 Jiang Yuandao: "So what does the dean mean?"

Dugu Bo said: "You two come with me, we will stay away from this place, even away from the South Pluto Star Territory! Go to the real desert of the universe, No Man's Sky!"

 “I have entered the Supreme Realm, and I shouldn’t let anyone know about it!”

Jiang Yuan nodded: "Okay, then follow the dean's arrangement!"

"Walk!"

Dugu Bo waved his sleeves, and the three of them disappeared in an instant.

 With the departure of Ye Chanxi.

 All the strange phenomena here have dissipated one after another.

The purple energy disappears and melts into the depths of the void.

 The rain dissipated, and the greenery began to wither and decay in patches, and then turned into dust and dissipated in the starry sky.

 Dugu Bo used all his strength, and only then did Jiang Yuan truly know how fast he was going.

That speed is far beyond his own. Even if it is as vast as the Nanming Star Territory, it can be easily crossed in less than half a stick of incense.

 The three of them continued to cross one star field after another, and continued to go deep into the universe.

 And as the distance gets further, Dugu Bo’s speed becomes faster!

On the way, Jiang Yuan saw the faint golden aura lingering on the three people, and knew that another new day had arrived.

 The power of luck +100.

 The power of luck +10.

 The power of luck +10.

The golden and dense Qi of the three people was harvested by Jiang Yuan, and then Jiang Yuan poured the power of Qi on the high-level Qi seed.

 After completing this step, he took another look at his panel.

The column of "Dao Dao" has undergone some changes because he subsequently listened to the sound of Dao Dao produced by Ye Chanxi's Enlightenment and Sanctification.

The power of luck has also increased by a hundred strands, reaching 2627 strands of luck.

 Jiang Yuan glanced twice and then closed the panel.

 One day later.

Three human figures appeared deep in the starry sky.

This place is a wasteland on the edge of the universe filled with coldness and darkness.

 In this place, Jiang Yuan could no longer feel the existence of any spiritual energy.

 The surroundings are nothing but dead silence.

Even though there are several ancient stars floating not far away, there is still endless silence.

Jiang Yuan sensed it, and based on the intertwined causal lines, he could still feel where the five domains and four seas were, and he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

 At the same time, his gaze looked deep into the starry sky.

 There is a line of cause and effect intertwined with him in that direction, a solitary line of cause and effect.

The end of this causal line is the Blue Star in his previous life that Jiang Yuan had guessed before.

Based on the change in distance, Jiang Yuan suddenly felt that he was no longer extremely far away from the other end of the causal line, and the distance had been shortened by more than half.

This is also because the direction proposed by Jiang Yuan just now made Dugu Bo go deep in the direction pointed by this causal line.

These distracting thoughts flashed through Jiang Yuan's mind quickly, and he had already come back to his senses and looked at Dugu Bo.

“Dean, is this the place you chose to overcome the tribulation and attain enlightenment?”

 Dugu Bo nodded.

“That’s right! This place is extremely far away from the Five Realms and Four Seas.”

“No matter how powerful the Supreme Tribulation is, it is impossible for the top powerhouses in the five regions and four seas to detect it.”

Dugu Bo then added: "But it's mainly to prevent being noticed by the forbidden beings in the three sacred mountains outside the territory!"

"If I go through a tribulation too close to the Five Realms and Four Seas, and if the beings in the three sacred mountains notice that I am going through the Supreme Tribulation, there may be immortals who revive and come to investigate, that will be troublesome!"

Jiang Yuan nodded.

Dugu Bo said again: "You just said that no matter where you are, you can attract the Supreme Tribulation. This place is so far away from the Five Realms and Four Seas, and it is a desert on the road!"

 “Everywhere but the top avenues can be extended to this!”

“90% of the three thousand avenues cannot be extended to this distance. If you try again, is it feasible here?”

Jiang Yuan closed his eyes and felt it for a while, then nodded.

"no problem!"

“Wherever God’s will comes from, heavenly calamity will come!”

"Unless I leave this world, or take some means to isolate myself from God's will, I can cause disaster no matter where I am in the universe!"

 When Dugu Bo heard these words, he nodded immediately.

"That's good!"

“In that case, you two should get out of this star field quickly and don’t stay in this star field for too long!”

 Jiang Yuan nodded.

  Raising his hand, a ray of lightning converged on his hand.

 After a moment, the lightning condensed and turned into a solid object. "Dean, this is the seed of Heavenly Tribulation. You will prepare it later. Crushing this seed of Heavenly Tribulation will trigger the Supreme Tribulation!"

Dugu Bo took the Heavenly Tribulation Seed that was thrown by Jiang Yuan, which was gathered by lightning, and his expression suddenly became happy.

"good!"

 Jiang Yuan said again: "In that case, I will take a step back first!"

As the words fell, Jiang Yuan's thoughts moved slightly, and the power of luck born today on the three of them was instantly harvested by him.

  【Power of Luck】:2727 rays

 After closing the panel, Jiang Yuan and Ye Chanxi quickly evacuated this place in an instant.

 Using the Great Teleportation Technique, he instantly felt something different.

 The space here is extremely weak for him, so his speed has increased more than ten times compared to before outside the South Pluto Star Territory.

  After a while.

The two of them walked out of the nameless star field and came to the void outside the star field.

This place is also exactly the same as the one outside the South Pluto Star Territory where it was before. Endless meteorite fragments are rotating around the center of this star territory.

It is this unique form that forms one star field after another.

 Each star field is like a meteorite, rotating around a river system.

 This is the theory Jiang Yuan read in ancient books.

As for the location of the center of the universe, the most agreed view is that it is the Five Realms and Four Seas.

Standing outside the star field, Jiang Yuan quietly felt the fluctuations in front of him.

 Another moment passed.

Rumble —

 The sound of rolling thunder came from the star field ahead.

Jiang Yuan also saw countless calamity clouds forming outside the star field, and then converging toward the star field ahead.

“It actually affected such a large area.” Jiang Yuan sounded a little surprised.

Ye Chanxi said: "This is normal. After all, it is the Supreme Tribulation, and the dean is known as the Holy Emperor."

“Two emperors of the human race, Ji Hao, the human emperor of Zhongzhou, and Dugu Bo, the holy emperor of the Eastern Region!”

 “This title was earned by him through hard work!”

“With the body of a saint, he defeated the Nanling Demon Emperor in the Supreme Realm! And he has never been defeated in the same realm in his life!”

“The supreme tribulation he has overcome must be much stronger than the supreme tribulation of his predecessors!”

Jiang Yuan also nodded when he heard this.

After a while, he smiled again: "Who else but the two of us could have imagined that in the distant desert of the universe, there would be a Supreme Being about to emerge!"

Ye Chanxi also smiled slightly: "This is all your credit. Tempered by the heavenly tribulation, the Holy Emperor's soul has at least doubled in strength before he can complete this ultimate leap!"

 “If you have his protection in the future, you will definitely be much safer!”

Jiang Yuan also nodded: "That's true! With the dean's previous performance, when he reaches the pinnacle of the human realm, the Nanling Demon Emperor will be vulnerable to him and will be easily crushed by the dean!"

 Speaking of this, Jiang Yuan's expression suddenly condensed slightly.

"What's wrong?" Ye Chanxi noticed the movement and asked immediately.

Jiang Yuan smiled slightly: "It's nothing, I just thought of a plan!"

 “What kind of bad things have you done again?” Ye Chanxi said.

Jiang Yuan slowly spoke: "After today, Senior Dugu will reach the pinnacle of the human realm, which no one in the world will know! Maybe I can rely on this to plan a plan!"

Hearing this, Ye Chanxi said, "Then what are you going to do?"

 Jiang Yuan shook his head: "I haven't thought about it yet!"

  Boom—

A bolt of lightning tore through the sky and the earth, instantly illuminating the star field in front of him, and at the same time, it suddenly exploded in Jiang Yuan's ears.

 “It’s begun!” Jiang Yuandao said.

 “What a powerful Supreme Tribulation!” At this time, Ye Chanxi looked surprised.

Then she added: "This power is far beyond the ordinary Supreme Tribulation. It seems that the Holy Emperor's background is too deep, causing the power of the Supreme Realm to increase several times!"

As the two of them finished speaking, endless thunder roared.

The star field ahead seems to be shaking as well, as if it is about to burst at any time.

“It is indeed a supreme calamity, it is really terrifying!” Jiang Yuan also said secretly in fear.

At this time, he was unable to see the full picture of the Supreme Tribulation, but just by sensing the power from the front, Jiang Yuan knew that with his current strength, he was completely unable to withstand such a powerful Supreme Tribulation.

  In the nameless star field, the Supreme Tribulation lasted for half a day.

 Half a day later.

 The boundless calamity clouds quickly dispersed, and the nameless star field ahead fell into calm again.

 Another moment passed.

Even though they were separated by endless space, a majestic figure instantly appeared in Jiang Yuan's perception.

This figure seems to be close in front of you, but it is far away in the horizon, high in the clouds.

 Three thousand avenues of vision appeared below him, as if surrendered to this majestic figure.

Endless golden light filled the space in front, and the originally dark space was instantly dyed into a sacred place by golden clouds.

At the same time, a fairy road to heaven emerged in the star field ahead, leading to an unknown place.

 “Supreme vision!” Ye Chanxi spoke slowly.

Jiang Yuan also nodded slightly.

 Such a vision ahead indicates that another powerful being has entered the pinnacle of the human realm.

Such visions are blessings from heaven and earth.

 As for the phantom of the Immortal Road to Heaven.

 If it was in ancient times, when the connection between heaven and earth had not yet been established.

 This will not be an illusion, but a real path, guided from the upper world.

Any supremely powerful person who enters this realm will be led to the upper realm without any reason.

As long as those supremely powerful people can nod in agreement, any force in the upper world will be extremely welcoming and will use secret treasures to help them immediately shed their mortal bodies, condense their immortal bodies, and enter the true fairyland.

Thus reaching the sky in one step and becoming the top powerhouse in the upper world.

 According to Jiang Yuan's understanding, even if one looks at the upper world, a true fairy can be truly called a strong person.

 Above the true immortals is the Immortal Lord.

 Any Immortal Lord is like a giant in the upper world.

As for going up further, there is a real taboo existence, which is revered as Tianzun.

 This kind of existence is one of the absolute masters of the upper world.

 According to Jiang Yuan’s understanding, there were only a few Tianzun-level existences in the ancient heaven.

Even the most powerful being in the past, the ruler of the ancient heaven, and the emperor of heaven is also in this state.

 This shows the status of a true immortal.

 Be able to better understand how highly the Supreme Being is valued in the upper world.

A figure slowly appeared in front of Jiang Yuan, a seemingly ordinary middle-aged man.

This person is Dugu Bo.

 Compared to before, Dugu Bo felt a little different to Jiang Yuan at this time, although his appearance remained the same.

 But it seems to be filled with an unfathomable feeling.

This feeling dissipated in an instant, and Dugu Bo seemed to be no different from before.

  【Name】:Dugubo

 [Realm]: Supreme Realm

 【Innate Qi Luck】: Human Sacred Body (Gold) Heart of Time and Space (Gold) Martial Arts and Spirituality (Gold) Innate Taoist Son (Purple) Super Comprehensive Understanding (Purple)

  【Human Sacred Body】: A top-level physique that can lead to the path of physical sanctification.

  【Heart of Time and Space】: It has extraordinary compatibility with the two paths of time and space, and can greatly reduce the backlash of the long river of time.

                                                      through martial arts through magic)

Jiang Yuan glanced at Dugu Bo's panel and immediately looked away.

According to the display on the panel, there is no doubt that Dugu Bo has reached the pinnacle of the humanitarian field.

 In this realm, there is no distinction between first level, second level, and third level, nor is there any measurement.

 Because the road to the Supreme Realm, which represents the realm of humanity, has come to an end.

 Unable to move forward, we can only accumulate knowledge horizontally.

 The deeper the accumulation, the stronger the strength.

 Jiang Yuan speculated that the emergence of the Immortal Realm may be due to this reason.

 The road has ended and there is absolutely no way ahead.

 Perhaps it was because of this situation that the original founders jumped out of this path and created a new one.

Hence the emergence of the realm of immortality.

As of now, who could have imagined that a Supreme Being would be born in the desert of this universe.

Jiang Yuan's mind flashed with these distracting thoughts, and then he said to Dugu Bo: "Congratulations to Dean, you have successfully achieved enlightenment!"

Ye Chanxi also said: "Congratulations to the Holy Emperor!"

 Dugu Bo suddenly showed a look of joy, then looked at Jiang Yuandao: "This is all your fault!"

“If it weren’t for the disaster you caused, I would have no hope of reaching the top of the human realm!”

"The most right thing and the proudest thing I have done in my life is to admit you into the Holy Court!"

 When he said the last sentence, Dugu Bo's face was full of pride.

Jiang Yuan also smiled slowly: "This is just what students should do! Without the dean, how could I have gotten to this point!"

Hearing this, Dugu Bo burst into laughter.

 “You boy!” He shook his head again and continued: “You are so good at talking!”

Then Jiang Yuan said again: "Dean, now that you have become the Supreme, can you continue to hide your strength like before? No one can see through your reality!"

 Dugu Bo nodded immediately: "Of course!"

 Then he added: "I probably know what you think. You agree with me! It just so happens that I also have this idea."

“I have reached the pinnacle of the realm of humanity, and no one knows about it except you and me!”

“It’s no secret that my soul is weak!”

“None of them could have imagined that I would become the second person in the world to enter the Supreme Realm!”

Jiang Yuandao: "What is the current level of dean's strength?"

Dugu Bo said quite confidently: "If you don't count the three sacred mountains, he is invincible! If the Nanling Demon King dares to go out of Nanling, I can kill him!"

Jiang Yuan suddenly asked curiously: "The dean said this, does it mean that in front of the dean, the method of entrusting the soul to the great road to survive is ineffective?"

Dugu Bo said lightly: "Of course that doesn't work! After entering the Supreme Realm, the Yuan Shen has completed the ultimate leap. The Yuan Shen's personality is equal to God's will. I can use the power of God's will to temporarily suppress the three thousand avenues."

"In this way, no matter which avenue the soul rests on, I can find it!"

 “In the presence of the Supreme Being, the so-called life-saving means of the saints are of no use.”

Hearing this sentence, Jiang Yuan nodded clearly.

This is the first time he has heard this statement.

Even though some books have recorded the peak of the human realm before, but it has not reached such a detailed level, he naturally does not know what means the Supreme has.

Dugu Bo looked at Jiang Yuan and nodded slightly in deep thought, then spoke out again.

“You want me to hide my strength. If you have any specific ideas, please tell me!”

  "I have received the grace of your enlightenment, and it is as you command!"

Jiang Yuan smiled: "The dean made a serious statement! This is just a piece of cake for the students."

Then he added: "As for ideas, the student does have some ideas, but he hasn't made a decision yet. He still needs to consider his studies. How about discussing it with the dean after he has made a complete decision in the future?"

Dugu Bo nodded immediately: "No problem! Anyway, as your protector, I will follow you now."

 “When you make a decision then, just tell me directly!”

“As long as I can cooperate, I will definitely cooperate!”

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan immediately raised his hand.

“Thank you very much, dean! The future safety of the students will be entrusted to the dean for the time being!”

 Dugu Bo laughed.

 “That’s how it should be! If you can grow up, you may be able to completely turn the situation around.”

“Although I am invincible in this world, I don’t have full confidence in facing the threats from the three sacred mountains.”

 Then he said again, his tone a little heavy.

“I have just reached the pinnacle of humanity, and I have taken another look at the future.”

“The scene I saw before still appears in front of my eyes, there is not much difference!”

“That is to say, with my current strength, I cannot reverse that situation.”

Hearing Dugu Bo's words, Jiang Yuan's heart suddenly sank.

Then he added: "Then the dean could possibly see how far that scene is from now?"

Dugu Bo shook his head: "I can't determine the specific time, but I can feel it, it's not too far away!"

 “That scene may be in the near future!”

“Nine times out of ten, this situation is related to the three sacred mountains!”

“The Son of God from Taishi Mountain suddenly walked out, and there was also movement in the other two sacred mountains! Maybe this is the beginning of the situation!”

“Not long ago, in the alliance battle, there were demon sages from two other sacred mountains holding immortal weapons. If not for this, how could that alliance battle end in a draw!”

“Various changes also indicate that if it is related to the three sacred mountains, then it is not that far away!”

 Jiang Yuan nodded.

 “The student understands!”
