One hundred billion years of lifespan could be used to attempt the tribulation one hundred times. A series of prompts rapidly flashed in front of Gu An's eyes. The length of the prompts remained unchanged, indicating that all attempts had ended in failure.
Gu An wasn't worried at all and continued investing another hundred billion years of lifespan.
His gaze remained fixed on the prompts before him.
The Primordial Great World was shrouded in a purple mist, mysterious and eerie.
Gu An continued to invest his lifespan, and when he had put in five hundred billion years of lifespan, his expression finally began to change.
A bad feeling started to stir within him, but fortunately, he still had one trillion five hundred billion years of lifespan left, so there was no need to panic.
After investing another two hundred billion years of lifespan, the prompt finally changed.
[You have cultivated for eight hundred seventy billion years. Using your great mastery of the Dao Ruler technique, you forcefully attempted to break through to the Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal Realm and began your tribulation. You couldn't survive the Unruly Great Heaven Tribulation and failed to transcend.]
[You have cultivated for eight hundred eighty billion years. Using your great mastery of the Dao Ruler technique, you forcefully attempted to break through to the Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal Realm and began your tribulation. You endured the Unruly Great Heaven Tribulation and succeeded in your transcendence. Your cultivation has broken through to the early stage of Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal Realm.]
[You have cultivated for one trillion years. Your cultivation has been improved.]
Finally, the breakthrough was successful!
A smile spread across Gu An's face, and the spiritual energy of the Primordial Great World surged. He was soon engulfed by the light of the Dao.
He didn't stop there and continued investing his lifespan into his cultivation.
The last breakthrough had not reached the perfect state, which left him with some regrets. This time, he was determined to meet his own standards.
In the end, Gu An successfully reached the perfect state of Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal Realm, with seven hundred fifty billion years of lifespan still remaining.
Gu An closed his eyes with satisfaction, fully immersed in the creation brought by the Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal state.
As the Primordial spiritual energy in the Primordial Great World began to stir, the invisible Dao laws also began to tremble. Miraculous lights appeared in the void, displaying all kinds of colors.
Soon after, lightning even appeared in the void, and a sense of destruction began to spread throughout the cosmic emptiness.
Half an hour later.
Gu An had finally broken through to the Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal Realm.
Still bathed in the light of the Dao, branches quickly sprouted from the top of his head, blooming and bearing fruit. As the fruit grew, it burst with golden light, creating countless points of light that seemed like a starry river floating above his head.
He slowly opened his eyes.
The Great Luo Immortal could open up worlds, and these worlds were higher than ordinary Great Thousand Worlds. The Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal could turn these worlds into his own power, Condensed into the Wondrous Truth Dharma Form, and the Wondrous Truth Dharma Form had boundless creation.
The Wondrous Truth Dharma Form was made up of three thousand Dao, but there would always be one Dao that formed the main focus, and it resonated with Gu An's understanding of the Dao universe.
This Dharma Form was different from the Immortal Dao Dharma Form and could manifest everything that the Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal desired. It could create, destroy, and even devour all things.
Gu An hesitated, wondering if his Wondrous Truth Dharma Form should focus on the Dao of Karma or the Dao of Strength.
After some thought, he decided that the Dao of Strength should take precedence.
He needed pure strength, and moreover, he was merely creating the Wondrous Truth Dharma Form, not abandoning the Dao of Karma.
Once he made his decision, Gu An closed his eyes again and began to create the Wondrous Truth Dharma Form deep within his soul.
Various ideas burst forth from the depths of his mind, and his mood became more and more joyful.
The process of creation didn't require much effort, it was rather easy, and there was even a sense of comfort and pleasure.
Time continued to pass.
Mid-stage of the Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal Realm!
Late-stage of the Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal Realm!
Perfect stage of the Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortal Realm!
Gu An opened his eyes, and within his pupils, reflections of various figures could be seen. They were all his reincarnation bodies.
While creating the Wondrous Truth Dharma Form, Gu An thought about the relationship between the Heavenly Dao and the Heavenly Court. He then integrated the Heavenly Dragon Reincarnation Great Dharma Form into his Wondrous Truth Dharma Form. His reincarnation body would become the god within the Wondrous Truth Dharma Form, creating even greater power.
Using the Wondrous Truth Dharma Form in battle would be unimaginable for all living beings. If he wanted to oppose the Heavenly Spirit Great World, he could, in the blink of an eye, use the Wondrous Truth Dharma Form to devour the Heavenly Spirit Great World, turning all beings into his slaves and dominating everything, including their spiritual intelligence and consciousness.
This was an incredibly frightening ability, nearly omnipotent.
The battles between Wondrous Truth Grand Luo Immortals would bring the Wondrous Truth Dharma Form to its peak, resulting in a clash of Dao with such force it could crush the universe.
Gu An did not fully fall into a state of forgetfulness. He glanced at his attribute panel.
He still had two hundred ten billion years of lifespan left. Not bad!
This breakthrough had cost him a total of one trillion eight hundred billion years of lifespan!
For the next breakthrough, he would need at least five trillion years of lifespan!
Gu An's lips curved into a smile as he felt the surge of his newfound immense power. His mood was absolutely wonderful.
This breakthrough had even transformed his understanding of the Dao, resulting in a complete overhaul of his power.
The Heavenly Spirit Great World was growing increasingly distant from him!
Gu An did not immediately teleport back. Instead, he turned his gaze to the far end of the Primordial Great World.
The Primordial Great World had no connection to the Dao paths, nor were there any spatial or temporal passages. It was like an independent universe, and this universe was still infinitely expanding, with no end in sight.
Here, there were no living beings as he understood them, but there was some form of will. This will had been stirred by the strange phenomenon caused by his breakthrough.
Under Gu An's watch, a terrifying, almost invisible figure began to wander in the depths of the darkness. Only the Great Luo Dao fruit could perceive this being's existence.
The figure resembled a dragon, with forelimbs and claws that were as long as its body. The horns on its head were numerous, like a series of towering peaks. Two long, river-like objects drifted from its neck, but Gu An could not distinguish what they were.
[Heavenly Judgment of Eternal End (Mid-stage of the Great Luo Immortal Realm): 907,872,609,327,874/2,000,000,000,000,000/5,000,000,000,000,000]
Such a long number!
Five quadrillion years of extreme lifespan!
If he could kill this being, he would become immensely powerful.
Gu An thought to himself, but of course, he would not act on this. He had no intention of becoming a Dragon Slayer.
Moreover, he didn't urgently need lifespan right now.
Gu An turned his attention elsewhere, curious to see if there were other existences in the Primordial Great World.
Upon looking, he indeed discovered many wills. They had no flesh or blood but were all incredibly strong, with the weakest among them possessing cultivation at the level of the Taiqing Golden Immortal Realm.
This Primordial Great World was truly no simple place.
Gu An's gaze suddenly froze on one direction.
Far in the distance, infinite amounts of Primordial purple qi were gathering into a massive egg. This egg was even larger than the entire Heavenly Spirit Great World, surrounded by swirling Primordial purple qi.
Gu An was unable to use his lifespan to investigate it and could not see through its true nature.
Although curious, he had no intention of disturbing it.
The Primordial Great World seemed to be hiding many secrets.
Gu An continued observing within the lifespan barrier for a long while before choosing to teleport back.
This time, it consumed ten billion years of lifespan!
After returning to the Heavenly Spirit Great World, Gu An stood in the forest. He opened his eyes and looked around. One world after another, vast universes, small realms, and mortal worlds appeared before him.
However, he could not see the Primordial Great World.
Beyond the universe, there was more universe, and above the heavens, there were other heavens. It seemed as though he was living in an endless world, and this made him marvel at the boundless nature of the Dao.
