Above the tribulation clouds, the original anomaly became even more terrifying. A towering Heavenly Palace appeared with countless gray figures before it and a majestic Emperor residing in the sky.
Below the Heavenly Palace, two massive Dragon and Phoenix sculptures spread their claws, almost coming alive. Below them were groups of terrifying vicious beasts. At the very bottom, countless silver-purple spots appeared, transforming into lightning pools filled with liquid lightning.
Li Changshou held a carving knife in his left hand and a wooden sword in his right, countless talismanic incantations flying from his sleeves.
A lightning pool in the sky slowly tilted, and a pool of lightning liquid poured down like a waterfall.
The lightning instantly illuminated the dim world. The carving knife in Li Changshou's hand rapidly moved, carving ancient characters out of thin air.
Boom!
He was submerged by the lightning waterfall. The ancient characters around him shattered, and his whole body was pressed onto the melting ground. After the lightning dissipated, he stood up again, surrounded by deep pits, his aura fluctuating wildly.
"What a kick!" he exclaimed, then immediately waved his carving knife again. He wrote the "Bu Geng" script, created by the ancient Human Race sage Shennong. The characters arranged themselves and ascended above his head.
At the same time, a ball of Samadhi True Fire emerged around him, and lotus flowers bloomed. He looked up at the sky, his long hair and Daoist robes swaying.
The lightning pool tilted again, and another waterfall descended.
"Come, Heavenly Tribulation!" Li Changshou bent his legs and shot into the sky, actively charging towards the lightning.
The Immortal Ascension Tribulation was typically one of the weaker tribulations, but the one Li Changshou faced was extraordinary.
"This kid is steady, not timid," Fang Han secretly thought. To some extent, Li Changshou was the same kind of person as them: unafraid of heaven or earth. He just had an extra layer of disguise.
Normal timidity is: This thing is terrifying, I must stay away.
Li Changshou's timidity is: This thing is terrifying, it scared me, so I'll eliminate it first so nothing can threaten me anymore.
The core was vastly different. Seeing him charge towards the Heavenly Tribulation confirmed Fang Han's thoughts. If he were truly timid, how could he face such a terrifying tribulation, let alone actively charge into it? It was all a disguise.
…

He wished he could immediately replace Li Changshou and unleash his signature move. The Heavenly Dao, encountering people like this group, truly suffers greatly.
Li Changshou plunged into the lightning. Countless bolts, thick as millstones, struck his body. Though his physical body was damaged, wisps of immortal Qi were brewing within him. His primordial spirit was also immersed in the lightning.
The feeling was refreshing, but at the same time, the bombardment was excruciatingly painful. The sensations of pain and comfort coexisted, making him want to scream in agony and moan in pleasure.
…
Countless wisps of immortal Qi permeated his body, and a small portion of his arm and the top of his head began to transform into an immortal body. His magical power was transforming into immortal power.
He used his body, primordial spirit, and magic to directly withstand the tribulation, allowing the Dao and his own power to collide.
The lightning became more and more terrifying. Seven-colored light appeared on his forehead, a sign of the physical body transforming into an immortal body.
At this moment, Li Changshou's expression was very strange. After seeing it, the people in the group couldn't help but comment and take screenshots.
[Fang Han: "Brother Li, your expression is too twisted… I can't tell if you're comfortable or in pain!"]
The style of the live stream suddenly changed. Li Changshou, seeing the bullet comments, could no longer remain calm.
"Aminos!" he cursed aloud.
In an instant, thunder rolled, and bolts of lightning pillars struck down, as if the Heavenly Dao was enraged.
"Heavenly Dao Elder, I wasn't talking about you!" Li Changshou immediately screamed in agony as countless bolts struck him.
[Serves you right!]
[Serves you right!]
[Serves you right!]
The bullet comments flooded the screen.
As time passed, the tribulation clouds shrank. Below, Li Changshou's entire being, from his forehead to his neck, radiated colorful immortal light. This was the result of him enduring it purely with his own power. He had not used his various prepared methods.
The power of the lightning above continued to brew. Various scenes flashed through Li Changshou's mind: repeatedly suppressing his realm, accumulating insights, walking on thin ice for a hundred years, all for this day.
Lightning erupted. Silver serpents danced in the air, condensing into a massive lightning pillar that struck down with dazzling light.
The world was filled with electric light. As the divine thunder purified the world, Li Changshou's heart surged with emotion, welcoming the sublimation of life.
The lightning swallowed him. Sounds of immortal music echoed throughout heaven and earth. Small, reishi-shaped auspicious clouds rose from the sea, framing his figure.
Countless immortal lights enveloped him.
Immortal Ascension! Attaining the Dao! This was the path to immortality!
