Chapter 411 - 328: Erasing the Death Registry, Ascending in One Step

Xuan Gate City

The grand roar intertwined, as if the heavens and earth were collapsing. Thousands of lights of the laws descended, bombarding a materialized Yang Spirit.

However, the materialized Yang Spirit was radiating Pure Yang Golden Light, surrounded by a layer of diamond-like materialized golden brilliance. No matter how the lights of the laws bombarded, they were like blades cutting into a Golden Man, bursting forth with brilliance, yet never piercing through the outer Pure Yang Golden Light of the Yang Spirit.

Layer upon layer of resonating Heaven and Earth Laws.

Sheji, Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Life and Death, Reincarnation, Heaven and Earth, Illusion and Reality, Time, Stars, Primordial Magnetism, Saintly Virtue, Earth... Zhang Jian truly did not expect so many Heaven and Earth Laws to resonate simultaneously.

This layered resonance of Heaven and Earth was like countless tides linking with the Yang Spirit, beginning to impact his own Yang Spirit.

If slightly weaker, the Yang Spirit would directly collapse from these dozen layers of Heaven and Earth resonations.

Even though the Yang Spirit had materialized, Zhang Jian still felt a slight difficulty.

This difficulty was not because the materialized Yang Spirit could not withstand the pressure. The materialized Yang Spirit remained like a rock, indestructible.

But deep within Zhang Jian’s Dao Heart, he gradually felt a sense of annoyance.

This layered resonance of Heaven and Earth Laws was a tremendous interference to him.

To adjust the magic structure of the Map of Mountains and Rivers from such disturbances and completely integrate the Sheji Emperor’s Mark required immense determination.

Just suppressing the urge to use the Vast Flame, among the magic beside his Yang Spirit like a Star River, a heart-type magic naturally triggered.

The "Supreme Forget Emotion Technique" descended, making his Dao Heart similar to the ancient Heavenly Dao, gradually resisting the disturbance of the layers of Heaven and Earth Laws’ backlash.

In just a few breaths, a majestic aura appeared around him, like mountains and rivers, the sun and moon, Heaven and Earth, the universe all turning in the void, instantly forming a grand Dao Map, which then enveloped Zhang Jian’s Yang Spirit, gradually merging with it. He transformed into a Sheji Emperor exuding a strong emperor’s aura.

As if an ancient Emperor was transitioning from illusion to reality, various Heaven and Earth Laws trembled slightly as the Sheji Emperor’s Mark fully merged into the depths of Zhang Jian’s Yang Spirit.

With the complete integration of the Sheji Emperor’s Mark, Zhang Jian finally felt the invisible barrier between himself and the Heaven and Earth Laws vanish.

No longer was there a need to manipulate the state’s authority as a third party through the Map of Mountains and Rivers, but a genuine sensation of connecting with the Heaven and Earth Laws, maneuvering them with ease.

Though just the initial use, deep within his Dao Heart, Zhang Jian couldn’t help but feel a hint of joy.

This was transforming from the mundane to the sacred!

But this ripple quickly turned to tranquility. Zhang Jian looked to the void, merging the Sheji Emperor’s Mark, gaining the Sheji Emperor’s authority. This was only the first step; another step was needed to completely erase his entry in the Death Registry and achieve longevity.

He soon sensed the moment arriving.

After merging the Sheji Emperor’s Mark, Zhang Jian distinctly sensed his Yang Spirit stained with a special luster of law, the core circulating with profound mysteries of the Heaven and Earth’s Great Dao. His magical power began to grow, which also symbolized the continuous increase of his lifespan.

The breakthrough of lifespan immediately triggered the trembling of the Life and Death Law from the void.

Rumble!!

In the depths of the sky, countless black and white profound lights circulated. A majestic wheel suddenly projected from the void of the Life and Death Law.

In an instant, Zhang Jian felt his Yang God Divine Sense plunged into a state of serenity and deathly silence, like sinking into a quagmire.

As if anchored by a colossal entity, the Yang Spirit continued to sink, seemingly about to fall into the Eternal Hell, as countless Evil Winds and dark flames approached from the void.

Apart from this, there was also an indescribable muddled yellow light drifting towards him, covering the golden light surrounding his materialized Yang Spirit with a layer of yellow fog that was rotting and decaying.

Netherworld Poison!

Feeling this change, Zhang Jian’s expression slightly sank.

This change was not unexpected.

Every Great Perfection Yin Spirit Venerable facing the Fifth Tribulation of the Yin Spirit has to confront the Reincarnation Life and Death Calamity, which manifests in various forms.

Netherworld Poison is one of the more common types.

Once tainted by Netherworld Poison, it acts like an ulcer corroding the Yin Spirit, obscuring the six senses and spiritual sense.

At this critical juncture of reclaiming his ’Reincarnation Mark,’ if the six senses and spiritual sense were obscured, the Divine Sense couldn’t function, leading to disastrous results, with the Yin Spirit likely being eroded by the Life and Death Law, remaining in the Nine Netherworld.

At this moment, deep within Zhang Jian’s Yang Spirit, strands of fortune’s radiance flowed, revealing strands of purple light, blossoming into purple flowers warding off the Netherworld Poison. Visible to the naked eye, these peculiar purple buds withered, the fortune and virtue dimmed, but quickly emerged again, showing a trend of endless vitality.

Zhang Jian has accumulated countless fortunes, saving innumerable lives, and thus bears significant merit and fortune.

A large expanse of purple buds, accompanied by waves of heavenly sound of virtue, not only blocked the Netherworld Poison but also the soul-hooking magic launched by the Asura shadows and the ancient bridge appearing in the void.

"Found it!"

Following the link of the Life and Death Law, Zhang Jian once again ’saw’ a book flowing with black and white life and death glory.

This wasn’t the first time Zhang Jian had seen this ’Great Book.’ The previous occasion was to reclaim soul fragments and perfect the Yin Spirit; this time, it was to thoroughly erase his Death Registry, breaking free of this ’Great Book’s’ control, breaking the barrier of lifespan, and achieving longevity.

Zhang Jian’s Yang God Divine Sense surged into it, instantly seemingly seeing life and death runes formed Dharma Bans, profound and mysterious, as if suppressing with the Heaven and Earth’s Great Dao Rules, slightly touching them, even Zhang Jian found it startling. He didn’t provoke these Heaven and Earth Rules; instead, he followed the perception, seeking traces.

That was where his own ’Death Registry’ was left in the ’Book of Life and Death,’ also the ’thread of vitality’ given by the Heaven and Earth Laws.

If he fell, perhaps he could still pass through this Reincarnation Mark, re-enter the Nine Netherworld to reincarnate.

And if erased... he might still enter the Nine Nether Reincarnation, but it would be a new beginning.

The way of ’registration’ was quite special, which was to infuse part of the Yang God Magical Power, returning part of the Heaven and Earth Origin, only then could he return to freedom.

In fact, there was another method, which was to forcibly erase the ’Reincarnation Mark’ with Great Magical Power, severing life and death, achieving the Immaculate Primordial Spirit.

Zhang Jian directly chose the first method, though it would lose some magical power; possessing various Heavenly and Earthly Treasures and often benefiting from the Ancestral Hall, Zhang Jian had no issues.

The second method might preserve more Origin, but it would risk offending Heaven and Earth, affecting personal fortune.

Between thoughts, Zhang Jian saw strands of golden light as he pointed, gradually merging into those traces. He saw his true name visibly disappearing from the ’Book of Life and Death.’

In an instant afterward, a faint Immortal Sound seemed to echo throughout the heavens and earth, purple and golden radiance breaking through the dark sky, light enveloping the Nine Netherworld, witnessing boundless and vast golden light spreading, virtue’s brilliance flowing like the sea. Such a scene, even some Ghost Emperors, powerful Immortal Gods in the Nine Netherworld couldn’t help but glance, seeing a purple-golden light silhouette transcending in the endless ocean of virtue.

This spectacle left many Immortal Gods on duty in the Nine Netherworld astonished.

...

Xuan Gate City, at this time, Liu Rui stood atop a special black and white altar, having been guided by the Golden Radiance Saint Mother. She found an excellent place for her tribulation within the Divine City.

Having passed the backlash of the Heaven and Earth Laws, her Yin Spirit was already very weary, but she still had to bolster her strength to overcome the Reincarnation Life and Death Tribulation, reclaiming her Reincarnation Mark from the entanglement of life and death.

At this moment, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc of the Reincarnation Life and Death Tribulation had already manifested above, but what astonished her was that in an instant, the entire Xuan Gate City suddenly shook, a vast ocean-like purple-golden light permeating the Divine City from top to bottom, mighty and magnificent, divine power immense.

This transformation couldn’t help but make her Dao Heart flicker violently.

Could it be that a powerful Immortal God was descending upon Xuan Gate City?
