Moreover, the Wu Ancestors were naturally attuned to the laws of the universe.

In almost no time at all—

Boom!

Rolling thunder and lightning, howling winds, fire, rain, and other elements appeared above the Wu Ancestor’s great hall. The vast energy of tribulation emerged from the void.

Chu Xuan stood below, gazing upward, and felt his entire body trembling. It was a deep, primal fear that gripped his soul.

The Heavenly Tribulation, with its Three Disasters and Nine Tribulations, was inherently designed to subdue all living beings. Even though Chu Xuan had initiated all of this, he couldn’t resist the overwhelming fear that came from the core of his existence.

However, the Wu Ancestors, who were in the midst of evolving the tribulation, quickly noticed Chu Xuan’s state. They exchanged glances and simultaneously pointed at him.

In an instant, strands of authority representing wind, fire, lightning, water, and other elemental forces descended upon Chu Xuan.

His inner fear vanished in an instant. Instead, he felt a sense of affinity with the forces, eager to join them. His entire body surged with vitality, his true form exulting, as the bloodline of the Wu race gradually fused with these strands of authority, transforming into some kind of law.

The cultivation of the Wu race differed from the orthodox path of immortality. They did not cultivate magical power but rather the true essence of their bloodline and the law embodied in their true forms.

As descendants of Pangu’s divine blood, even the most basic Wu race soldiers had fragments of laws within them. The difference lay in the completeness and strength of these fragments, which determined the strength of one’s true form. It could be said that every member of the Wu race was a true deity wielding natural laws from birth. The title of Pangu’s direct descendants was not self-proclaimed.

Previously, Chu Xuan, as a little shaman, and a Golden Immortal, had only mastered a minor earth law due to his association with the Hou Tu Tribe. But now, as the laws of Heavenly Tribulation flowed into him, Chu Xuan felt the earth law being suppressed. Deep within, another vast and terrifying force was born, carrying the might of heaven.

His true form grew stronger, his vitality surged, and the authority of the mysterious laws condensed. Chu Xuan’s cultivation rapidly advanced from the early to the mid-stage of Golden Immortal.

“This is…”

Chu Xuan looked at the Ancestors in surprise.

“Though we are Ancestors of the Wu race, we won’t take the fortune of our kin lightly. Even though we disdain the Heavenly Dao, we cannot deny that such a task of completing the Heavenly Dao—even if it is to be used against others—brings great fortune,” Zhu Rong, the most enthusiastic among them, spoke on behalf of the group. “We’ve already gained an advantage, so we must give something in return! We’ve helped you evolve the law of Heavenly Tribulation. When we project this Great Dao upon the world, you will also become the Ancestor of the Heavenly Tribulation Dao! And not just any Dao Ancestor—you’ll be the most special. While each of us governs a different tribulation, only you will encompass all forms of Heavenly Tribulation! You will become the Sovereign of the Dao! The Sovereign of the Heavenly Tribulation Dao. From now on, you may call us fellow Daoists!” Zhu Rong laughed heartily, winking at Chu Xuan as flames and tribulation energy intertwined around him.

Around them, Qiang Liang, Gong Gong, and the other Ancestors nodded kindly at Chu Xuan. Even Di Jiang and the other Ancestors expressed their approval without opposition.

Hou Tu, the leader of Chu Xuan’s tribe, spoke to him gently. “From now on, you are the Sovereign of the Heavenly Tribulation Dao, but to us, Chu Xuan will always be the same Chu Xuan of the Hou Tu Tribe.”

This wasn’t some hidden agenda but a form of protection. Chu Xuan was still weak. If he became the Sovereign of the Heavenly Tribulation Dao and faced backlash, he could easily perish. So, the careful Hou Tu helped Chu Xuan maintain two identities. On the surface, he would remain an ordinary little shaman, but in secret, he could call himself an equal to the Wu Ancestor.

Witnessing this completely unexpected turn of events, Chu Xuan was once again amazed by the generosity of the Wu Ancestors. At this moment, he felt a deeper understanding of what it meant to be of the same bloodline and origin.

Naturally, he didn’t refuse since this was indeed a great opportunity. The Wu Ancestors had no need for the authority of Heavenly Tribulation; their own foundation was enough for them to grow to the peak. But for Chu Xuan, who wasn’t directly descended from Pangu’s blood, his law fragments were much fewer in number. The addition of Heavenly Tribulation laws would certainly speed up his growth.

As a member of the Wu race, Chu Xuan shared in their glory and downfall. Refusing would have made no sense.

Additionally, once the Wu Ancestors projected the Heavenly Tribulation Dao onto the world, he, as the initiator, would receive immense merit. However, because the Heavenly Tribulation wasn’t his creation, he wouldn’t have obtained the full laws of the Dao or the status of Dao Ancestor.

But now, with the Wu Ancestors helping him evolve a portion of the law, when the Great Dao manifested, he would gain the status of a Dao Ancestor as the creator, and the rewards would be even greater.

The Wu Ancestors gradually completed their evolution of the tribulation, almost ready to project it from Pangu’s great hall and manifest it upon the world.

Seeing this, Di Jiang stepped forward, clapped his hands, and laughed: “Since things have progressed so far, let me, as the eldest brother, personally conceal the heavenly secrets for you!”

“Brothers and sisters, let us all activate the Pangu Palace!”

“We will sever the heavenly secrets together. Even that high-and-mighty Dao Ancestor Hongjun  won’t uncover the truth for several eras!”

Though the Wu race had chosen this path, it didn’t mean they needed to expose themselves and attract unnecessary attention. There was one thing Chu Xuan hadn’t mentioned: even if he became the Sovereign of the Heavenly Tribulation Dao, they could find a way to hide it. Of course, Chu Xuan hadn’t brought this up because he wasn’t sure if the Wu race could pull it off. After all, Hongjun was in the process of merging with the Heavenly Dao, and such a massive change concerning the Heavenly Dao shouldn’t be easily concealed.

But Di Jiang’s response filled Chu Xuan with delight. As expected, a race feared by Hongjun surely had some hidden tricks up their sleeve!

Hou Tu, Xuan Ming, and the others nodded, then acted in unison.

Boom!

The long-dormant Pangu Palace was activated with a mighty roar. From its depths, a heart suddenly pulsed. In the next moment, countless surrounding spaces shattered with a thunderous explosion. The ancient and vast aura that seemed to lead directly to the Primordial Realm erupted and covered and concealed all traces of the heavenly secrets.

An era of chaos followed.

Above the heads of the Wu Ancestors, a stretch of chaos appeared, seeming to connect with the entire Primordial Realm yet also transcending it.

At the same time, the six Ancestors of the Wu race who had evolved the Heavenly Tribulation activated the Tribulation Qi, extending it outward into the chaotic phenomenon, manifesting it within the Heavenly Dao.

Chu Xuan was drawn into the process, and without thinking, he declared, “I, Chu Xuan, have witnessed how the path to immortality damages the heavens to benefit all beings. It is not the way for all things to endure; thus, the Heavenly Dao remains incomplete. Today, I establish the Heavenly Tribulation. The Three Disasters and Nine Tribulations will complete the Heavenly Dao! Those who seek to ascend to immortality must first endure the Three Disasters and Nine Tribulations!

The Three Disasters: Wind Disaster, Fire Disaster, and Water Disaster. The Nine Tribulations: hunger, thirst, clothing, and all the binding chains of mortality, including the Five Declines of Heaven and Man! Only by overcoming these can one become immortal and progress on the path to immortality! After attaining immortality, each realm brings a new tribulation. Heaven’s thunder descends, fire and water invade, and wind and thunder roar! This is the Heavenly Tribulation Dao!”

“I, Qiang Liang, shall govern the tribulation of thunder…”

“I, Xi Zi, shall govern the tribulation of lightning…”

“I, Zhu Rong, shall govern the tribulation of fire…”

“I, Gong Gong, shall govern the tribulation of water…”

“I, Tian Wu, shall govern the tribulation of wind…”

“I, She Bishi, shall govern the Nine Tribulations…”

“Heavenly Tribulation Dao!”

“Stand!”

Boom!

The roar of the Dao resonated, and a vast will, as if covering the entire Primordial Realm, descended from the void, bringing joy and excitement to all beings in the realm.

….

Meanwhile, on the outside, the Primordial Realm was still captivated by the establishment of the Heavenly Court by the Yao race.
