Ten years later, the Celestial Court sent a special envoy to reside in the Eternal Ice Castle, specifically to investigate Wu Chun Immortal Monarch’s collusion with the Outer Celestial Demon to harm the Immortal Gods of the Immortal Prison.
The visitor was a powerful member of the Celestial Human Royal Family.
This powerful figure, Zhang Jian, was not unfamiliar, as he was the Min Hua Immortal Monarch whom he had met once at the Jasper Pool banquet.
He was a renowned figure among the Celestial Human Royal Family.
Although he was not one of the top ten Immortal Monarchs emerging from the Jasper Pool trials, his reputation was long established within the Celestial Race.
He was also a Crown Prince of a Celestial Realm!
In the Thirty-Three Heavens, a crown prince of a Celestial Realm held significant influence!
His entry into the Eternal Ice Castle was undoubtedly aimed at the Eternal Ice Castle.
However, upon realizing King Yu’s presence in the castle, his attitude became very humble. After a brief investigation, he directly departed the Eternal Ice Castle.
Sixty years later, a major event occurred around the Eternal Ice Castle.
Two Dao Seeds from the Penglai Daoist Palace exploring the Frozen Abyss suddenly had their Life Lamps extinguished, prompting numerous mighty figures from the Penglai Daoist Palace to arrive.
On this day, it seemed the entire Frozen Abyss was overturned.
A terrifying Demon God emerged from within.
This was a Wilderness Demon God guarding the Eternal Forbidden Area.
The battle shook the majority of the Eternal Mountain Range, with divine light surging into the sky.
Several streams of light broke through space-time, but as soon as a terrifying Demon Qi emerged, it was engulfed by the Heaven and Earth Net surrounding the Thirty-Three Heavens, becoming a caged bird.
Above the gates of the Eternal Ice Castle, Zhang Jian stood with the Lotus King Treasure Mirror manifesting like a blue Bright Moon.
Within the Lotus King Treasure Mirror appeared an array of terrifying scenes.
Amidst the boundless Demon Qi, he saw a blue flame blazing in the sky, hanging over the world, like the infinite flames of world destruction burning through the heavens, incinerating countless Heaven and Earth Dao Laws to nothingness.
It was rampant, wielding numerous ancient Demon Dao secret techniques with great strength.
But encountering the Heaven and Earth Net, he saw it fall and continuously shrink, trapping it within layers of the Heaven and Earth Net.
At this moment, Zhang Jian’s Earth Emperor Ancestral Qi also blended into the depths of the Central Celestial Realm, holding a part of its special authority, feeling his Earth Emperor Ancestral Qi playing a suppressive role within the Heaven and Earth Net, harmonizing the mystical uses of numerous Earth Ancestral Qi.
"Master, the methods used by this Demon God seem to be of the Ancient Demon Race, using a mere demon god’s body to command the Heaven and Earth Dao Laws, ultimately somewhat primitive!"
Zhang Jian glanced over, his expression solemn.
He had dealt with the Demon Race for quite some time.
The Demon Race today is very different from the Demon Race of ancient times.
They no longer solely pursue physical strength; besides physical and bloodline strength, modern Demons also emphasize the harmony between Dharma Artifacts and their flesh and bloodlines.
King Yu, looking at this powerful Demon God, pondered.
"This demon is similar to the God of Close Attendant beside the Ancient Celestial Emperor, wielding methods of the Ancient Sun God lineage, showing traces of the Golden Crow Dharma Aspect, possibly also a guardian of the Eternal Immortal Prison from ancient times!"
"It’s indeed a pity for Cang Nan and Miao Ling, falling here!"
King Yu shook his head slightly.
Zhang Jian’s eyes were somewhat heavy.
He hadn’t expected the Miao Ling Immortal Monarch, who stole the spotlight at the Jasper Pool, would fall like this.
And that Cang Nan Immortal Monarch.
Ranked top ten on the Dao Seed list.
It’s too absurd.
At the same time, Zhang Jian’s heart couldn’t help but be filled with a strong sense of vigilance.
Even High-Tier Immortal Gods must always keep respect and caution.
No matter the backing, one must be careful and prudent.
King Yu also sighed.
"The friends from the Penglai Daoist Palace are truly unlucky this Inference Era, losing two nurtured Dao Seeds in one go, this era will likely be quite bleak!"
"But these two juniors had their tribulations, encountering an Ancient Demon God now, their defense secret treasures would probably be ineffective..."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian couldn’t help but ask.
"Master, will we also face tribulations before entering the Realm of Daoist Monarch?"
King Yu replied casually.
"Of course, achieving Daoist Monarch requires breaking through the barriers of fate, overcoming the Destruction Tribulation; during this state, one must not touch any tribulation fiend, or it could be exploited by enemies, or attract Demon Tribulation, and external tribulations also occur. However, most gods understand this point and purify themselves of tribulation fiends early, preventing external tribulations from forming!"
Zhang Jian asked again.
"Master, does karma have an effect?"
King Yu glanced at Zhang Jian.
"Karma, as a Great Dao Law, is quite subtle, but the impact is significantly smaller. Would you easily let your great adversary know your location during the Destruction Tribulation? Even if they knew, they might not dare to invade your stronghold!"
"Of course, unless the entity you’ve formed karma with is exceptionally powerful, scary, beyond your resistance; then it might influence you during your tribulation!"
"After all, a Daoist Monarch’s Divine Techniques indeed can utilize karma’s Great Dao Laws to cast curses or use other tricks to interfere with your tribulation!"
A slight pause, King Yu smiled.
"But you don’t need to worry, as an official member of the Three Emperors and Five Elders Assembly, you can use the Fire Cloud Grotto Heaven to undergo the Destruction Tribulation!"
"With you in the Fire Cloud Grotto Heaven, who can break through its defenses to affect you!"
"If unwilling, you can also use the Jade Emperor Peak in the Central Celestial Realm to undergo the tribulation, which serves a similar purpose!"
