One day later, Li Xuan emerged from his seclusion.
Boom!
As Li Xuan left the town of Zhenyu, a rumbling sound echoed through the heavens and earth. In the next moment, countless dense black clouds gathered.
"The Mortal Breaking Realm, is this another tribulation?"
Li Xuan glanced at the sky, then his figure moved, heading straight for the location of the array seal.
"What is that!"
Those who were reinforcing the array seal now also felt the change in the might of heaven and earth. With a cry of alarm, everyone looked up.
Soon, everyone stood up in shock. Even the spiritual energy they were transporting halted.
"This... this is a heavenly tribulation!"
"Look, someone seems to be rushing over there!"
"Why is this heavenly tribulation following that person!"
"..."
The crowd murmured, and Li Jun, the domain lords of various regions, and the powerhouses of the Four Sacred Lands also looked over.
"Is that Li Xuan?"
The Holy Lord of the Chaos Sacred Land's gaze flickered, and he immediately spoke.
"It really seems to be Li Xuan. After ten months, has he already broken through!" Emperor Ming also recognized him and said in shock.
The Domain Lord of the Central Region and others were all shaken by this. They were naturally aware of Li Xuan's cultivation. But to have cultivated from the Divine End Realm to the peak of the Heavenly End Realm in less than a year was truly astounding.
"Everyone, the heavenly tribulation is approaching, please temporarily withdraw. I will deal with these aliens." Li Xuan stopped, his gaze meeting his father, Li Jun's, as he spoke.
"This pressure has truly reached the peak of the Heavenly End Realm!"
The Domain Lord of the Central Region and others, being high-level cultivators of the Heavenly End Realm, naturally felt the shocking aura emanating from Li Xuan.
Soon, led by the leaders of various factions, everyone left the area.
In the sky, the black clouds were now even more turbulent.
"A mere heavenly tribulation, come stronger if you dare!" Li Xuan looked up at the sky, and as his voice fell, he descended directly towards the alien stronghold below.
Boom!
At the same time, a bolt of lightning as thick as a waist descended.
"Holy crap, such thick lightning, and this is just the first strike," someone exclaimed, their eyelids twitching.
"This guy seems to be deliberately luring it towards the aliens," a sharp-eyed observer suddenly realized Li Xuan's intention and said.
"I suddenly feel fortunate that I am not an alien," a man said, taking a deep breath.
Boom!
Bolts of heavenly lightning roared down. Perhaps sensing the presence of the aliens, their power instantly increased severalfold.
Soon, under everyone's gaze, nearly dozens of waist-thick bolts of lightning unhesitatingly struck the alien stronghold.
Under this bombardment, the array could not withstand it. Many alien powerhouses tried to flee, but the heavenly lightning seemed to have a homing function and showed no signs of missing.
The heavenly tribulation lasted for more than ten minutes. As time passed, the earth was scarred and ravaged. The land within a thousand-mile radius was reduced to ruins.
"The aliens are probably gone. If anyone can survive, I would truly admire them," Ancestor Haotian lamented.
Ancestor Haotian believed he himself could not withstand such heavenly lightning, so how could the aliens fare any better.
Buzz.
As the heavenly tribulation ended, a humming sound also rose from the ruins.
In the next moment, Li Xuan's figure slowly ascended. In his hand, he held a figure. However, judging by the man's weakened body, he was clearly severely injured.
"This person is the King of the Aliens, but there isn't much time left. The matter of the aliens is completely resolved." Li Xuan waved his hand, instantly throwing the King of the Aliens before the Domain Lord of the Central Region and the others.
The Domain Lord of the Central Region and the others were stunned. The trouble that had plagued the Five-Dimensional World for thousands of years was actually resolved like this?
"Father, Mother, your son awaits you ahead. You have fought for this empire for me before, and now it is I who will protect you." Li Xuan glanced at the void, then looked at Li Jun and Wang Lan Ying and said.
"Live well." Li Jun naturally understood the meaning behind Li Xuan's words. Li Xuan's breakthrough likely meant ascension to the upper realm.
At least, above the Five-Dimensional World.
"Xuan'er, take care of yourself." Wang Lan Ying, also feeling a pang of sadness, held Li Jun's arm and looked at Li Xuan, saying.
Li Xuan nodded slightly, bowed to Li Jun and Wang Lan Ying, then looked at Ancestor Qi Yun, Emperor Ming, and the others and said, "Now that the Heavenly Dao of order for the Five-Dimensional World has emerged, you all will have new directions for cultivation. The next realm is called the Mortal Breaking Realm."
"The kindness of the Chaos Sacred Land, I, Li Xuan, will never forget! The Chaos Eastern Emperor Bell is now suitable to be returned to its rightful owner."
Li Xuan finished speaking and waved his hand, and the Chaos Eastern Emperor Bell instantly flew towards Ancestor Qi Yun.
"Everyone, great gratitude cannot be expressed in words. I, Li Xuan, remember it." Li Xuan finished speaking, and a golden light appeared above his head. In the next moment, Li Xuan's figure vanished.
"I never imagined that the decision made back then would actually come true. Although it was a bit dramatic, the danger from the aliens has truly been resolved. Lord Li, your Li family has produced a fine young man!" Yuan Chu Xiong said with a smile.
"Indeed, the Li family has a son who has grown up. Congratulations, Lord Li."
"The Mortal Breaking Realm. We now have a new direction for cultivation."
"..."
With a buzz, Li Xuan felt his vision clear and his senses return.
"What world is this?" Li Xuan glanced at the surrounding scenery and then muttered to himself with some curiosity.
"This... is the Hun Tian Continent," the voice of the Heavenly Dao Brush sounded in Li Xuan's mind.
"Hun Tian Continent... Well, let's find a city to inquire for information first." Li Xuan moved his figure, explored with his divine sense for a moment, and then headed southwest.
A day later, Li Xuan's figure slowly stopped.
Ahead of him was a city. Li Xuan glanced at the city's name and then walked in. Li Xuan noticed that there were an unusual number of spirit masters entering Dan Yang City.
"This Dan Yang City seems quite large." Li Xuan directly found a teahouse and wine shop, sat down, ordered a pot of spiritual wine, and waited quietly.
Before the waiter could even bring the tea, Li Xuan had already figured out why there were so many spirit masters in Dan Yang City.
It turned out that Dan Yang City was the largest city within a radius of several thousand miles. And a grand event was about to be held in Dan Yang City, with extremely generous rewards. This was why Li Xuan had noticed many young generation powerhouses visiting.
This grand event was called the Heavenly Pole Divine Ranking, and it was a major event centered around cultivators from the Heavenly End Realm to the Mortal Annihilation Realm.
The Heavenly Pole Divine Ranking was a grand competition held once every ten years. Those who could be ranked on the Heavenly Pole Divine Ranking were rare individuals in the Chaos Heavens.
Furthermore, this grand event was solely to update the rankings of the Heavenly Pole Divine Ranking and served as a platform for the younger generation of various factions to compete.
The competition required participants to have a minimum strength of the initial stage of the Heavenly End Realm, and the age of each participant must not exceed one hundred years. The ability to cultivate to the Heavenly End Realm or above within a hundred years was a testament to their talent and potential.
The Heavenly Pole Divine Ranking competition was jointly organized and judged by the Four Hidden Sects and the Six Great Families. It was not difficult to see the profound background of the Heavenly Pole Divine Ranking.
As for the rewards, they were so generous they made one's mouth water. Only fifty-six individuals could make it onto the Heavenly Pole Divine Ranking.
Those who made the list, in addition to receiving hundreds of millions of high-grade spirit stones, could also obtain cultivation techniques and spiritual weapons and treasures.
Moreover, those on the list could enter the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, jointly built by the Four Hidden Sects and the Six Great Families, to comprehend. As a result, outstanding disciples from various factions in the Chaos Heavens were all eager to participate.
The Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion was the place where the past patriarchs of the Six Great Families and the Four Hidden Sects had passed away. Regardless of which patriarch of the Six Great Families or Four Hidden Sects, their strength had reached the high-level or even peak of the Divine King Realm. Considering the resting place of ten patriarchs, one could imagine the profound insights condensed within.
Therefore, all factions fully supported their disciples in participating. After all, such a grand event did not require disciples to join any of the ten families, and various factions were naturally happy to see their disciples grow.
"It seems I can participate in this Heavenly Pole Divine Ranking competition. Setting aside the rewards, the location of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion is an excellent place for cultivation," Li Xuan murmured to himself before picking up his teacup and taking a sip.
