80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled

Chapter 273: Five Decay of the Celestial Being

Lin Jiufeng made a deal with the Nest of 10,000 Dragons. As for the Eye of the North Sea, he was quite interested in exploring it.

But Big Sister Divine Silkworm told Lin Jiufeng, “Great Emperor Jiufeng, you’re indeed very powerful now, and you have invincible strength, but please be careful. The Eye of the North Sea is really dangerous, there’s no need to rush in completing our agreement.”

Lin Jiufeng nodded and said, “I know. I will go take a look after I transcend the ninth lightning tribulation.”

But Winged Dragon suddenly said, “Great Emperor Jiufeng, the ninth lightning tribulation has another name, the Life and Death Tribulation. It’s very terrifying.”

“Life and Death Tribulation?” Lin Jiufeng looked at Winged Dragon in surprise.

“In the False Immortal Realm, the ninth lightning tribulation is a special existence. I wonder if Great Emperor Jiufeng knows about this?” Winged Dragon countered with a question.

“Please enlighten me.” Lin Jiufeng lowered his status and humbly asked for guidance.

“There are nine lightning tribulations in the False Immortal Realm. For the first eight lightning tribulations, you will become slightly stronger for passing each one. Your strength will continue to stack until the ninth lightning tribulation.”

“The ninth lightning tribulation of the False Immortal Realm is called the Five Decay of the Celestial Being!”

“First decay, the body of filth. The body of a cultivator is constantly tempered and gets stronger when the cultivation base increases. When the great calamity comes, the body will create filth in it.”

“Second decay, the shrinking of the cultivation technique. The cultivation technique that you have cultivated all your life, the supreme cultivation technique that is so powerful that it can shake the void, will shrink under the great calamity, its might will greatly decrease.”

“Third decay, sealing off the spiritual perception. Your spiritual consciousness will be locked in your body under the great calamity. All your comprehension of the outside world will be cut off. For cultivators who are used to using their spiritual consciousness to comprehend the world, this is tantamount to being blind.”

“Fourth decay, the stink of the Primordial Spirit. After experiencing the baptism of the mortal world and the strike of the lightning tribulation, the Primordial Spirit was already tempered. Under the great calamity, the Primordial Spirit will be locked in the Spirit Platform and suddenly stinks. It will no longer have any other use.”

“Fifth decay, the Dao Fruit. From the beginning of cultivation to this realm, a person who was once mortal now carried a terrifying Dao Fruit and could roam the world freely. This is the most dangerous tribulation. It will crush the Dao Fruit and make you wish you were dead.”

Winged Dragon explained in detail to Lin Jiufeng.

Lin Jiufeng frowned. The Five Decay of the Celestial Being sounded very terrifying.

“The Five Decay of the Celestial Being, doesn’t this mean that this stage is the weakest among all the stages of the False Immortal Realm?” Lin Jiufeng frowned and asked.

“That’s right. Everyone thinks that after a False Immortal passes the ninth lightning tribulation of the False Immortal Realm, he should be at his strongest. But the opposite is true.”

“After transcending the ninth lightning tribulation of the False Immortal Realm, not only will you not become stronger, but you will instead be directly weakened. If the Five Decay is slightly more severe, you won’t even be able to defeat a stage one False Immortal,” Winged Dragon nodded and said.

“This is because after passing the ninth lightning tribulation, you will appear to be at your strongest, but you are actually very weak. The cycle of Yin and Yang conforms to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth,” Winged Dragon added.

‘Since that’s the case, then I have to quickly transcend this last tribulation.’ Lin Jiufeng frowned and thought. He calculated the time in his heart and realized that he had to make use of the current situation and transcend the ninth tribulation as soon as possible.

He had just destroyed the Primordial God Mountain and intimidated the world. The Myriad Races were really afraid this time and wouldn’t dare to offend the Yuhua God Dynasty again.

Emperor De’s reforms continued to go deeper. In all aspects, children, old people, women, men, disabled people, and powerful cultivators were all a part of this society. Protecting each of them from being bullied and being able to live peacefully was Emperor De’s goal.

He abolished the slave system, disbanded the palace maids and servants, enacted the law of marriage, and so on. All of these were starting to be carried out.

Many people in this era thought that it was absurd, unconstrained, and violating the laws of their ancestors. They were very dissatisfied, but under the pressure of Great Emperor Jiufeng, they didn’t dare to resist.

The people of the world were like this, so the people of the Myriad Races should probably be feeling the same way.

If Lin Jiufeng wanted to tide through the weakest step of the False Immortal Realm, he had to seize the opportunity.

Now that the powerhouses of the world were hiding and not coming into being for the time being, it was a good opportunity for him to break through.

“Lin Jiufeng’s thoughts revolved thousands of times, but he didn’t reveal them. He asked, “Then, what will happen after passing all nine lightning tribulations?”

“Then, you can pry into the realm of the immortals. A true immortal, not a False Immortal. That is a very ‘terrifying’ realm. There is a problem with this’ terrifying ‘realm. I heard the Kunlun Immortal mention this problem once, and I remembered those words to this day,” Winged Dragon said.

“What did the Kunlun Immortal say?” Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.

“Looking at the mountains from the northwest, I pity the countless immortals!” Winged Dragon said.

“What does this mean?”

“Is the Kunlun Immortal taking pity on the immortals?”

“But he’s clearly an immortal himself?”

Lin Jiufeng looked at Winged Dragon in confusion.

“Why are you looking at me? I don’t know what it means. I have the same thoughts as you. Pitiful immortals? I want to become an immortal all the time,” Winged Dragon muttered.

Perhaps for her, she was really just muttering.

But for Lin Jiufeng, she was talking loudly.

“Looking at the mountains from the northwest, I pity the countless immortals?” Lin Jiufeng muttered. He was also thinking, but he made no progress.

For some reason, with a flash of inspiration, he thought of the Land of Extremely Negative Energy, the newly appeared Undying Mountain, and the Senior of the Heavenly Dao Sect, Elder Universe.

He once said that immortals were a lie.

‘I need to return to the imperial capital, enter the Cold Palace, and begin my seclusion to prepare for the ninth lightning tribulation. Then, I will investigate the Land of Extremely Negative Energy. I don’t want to investigate the Myriad Races anymore for the time being. My top priority now is to transcend the ninth lightning tribulation.’ Almost instantly, Lin Jiufeng completed the plans for his next steps.

Different things have different priorities. It was obvious that the Five Decay of the Celestial Being was the most urgent matter at hand.

He had to make use of the current peaceful days of the world and transcend the tribulation as soon as possible. Then, he had to go through the Five Decay of the Celestial Being as soon as possible before he started aiming for the realm of the immortals.

The realm of a true immortal!

Not the current False Immortal.

Lin Jiufeng looked at Winged Dragon and said, “Your information is very useful. I will help you guys break free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao now. I hope that you guys won’t hurt the common people.”

Winged Dragon was overjoyed. She hurriedly said, “I won’t hurt them, no one from the Nest of 10,000 Dragons will. After we escape, we will unite the Kunlun Mountains and wait for the results of your investigation.”

The other True Dragons watched in excitement.

If they just relied on their own strength, they might not necessarily be able to break free from the Heavenly Dao shackles. After all, the Heavenly Dao specially created these shackles for them.

The stronger they were, the more terrifying the Heavenly Dao shackles were.

Clang!

Under their gazes, Lin Jiufeng raised his hand in the air. Then, he drew out a treasure sword and slashed it forcefully.

This series of actions all relied on imagination. In the eyes of outsiders, there wasn’t any weapon in Lin Jiufeng’s hand.

But Winged Dragon was overjoyed. Her eyes widened as she saw the terrifying sword energy that Lin Jiufeng slashed out.

Boom!

This sword energy rampaged and shattered all the Chains of Order, freeing Winged Dragon and the others.

Roar!

They roared excitedly and wandered around the mountain unbridled.

Lin Jiufeng only nodded at Big Sister Divine Silkworm and left silently.

He wanted to return to the imperial capital!

He wanted to transcend the tribulation and experience the Five Decay of the Celestial Being.
