Chapter 558 The Great Tribulation of Journey to the West
Chapter 558 The Great Tribulation of Journey to the West
Upon seeing this, Lao Tzu was instantly enraged, his eyes wide open as if burning with raging fire.
He suddenly swung his arms, and his incomparably powerful magic surged out, transforming into a massive force that crashed straight towards the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
Clearly, he wanted to try and see if he could forcefully break through this terrifying sword formation with his own strength.
However, when that powerful force struck the sword formation, it only caused a slight ripple, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating only a tiny ripple.
In contrast, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation remained as stable as Mount Tai, showing no signs of being shaken.
"Heh heh, like an ant trying to shake a tree!" Tongtian chuckled coldly, looking at Laozi.
All the other powerful beings in the primordial world were astonished.
This commotion is caused by the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
After all, they had already seen it before.
Unexpectedly, Tongtian has been brought out again.
However, they were very curious as to why Tongtian was fighting with someone again.
Yuanshi of Yuxu Palace remained indifferent and silent.
If the two Western Saints intervene, then let's fight!
Of course, he was fighting the two Western Saints!
.......................
At this moment, Lao Tzu shone brightly, dazzling and radiant, like a blazing sun hanging high in the sky.
However, even such intense light could not penetrate the cold, eerie glow emanating from the sword formation.
The Tongtian Sect Leader stood steadily behind the sword formation, a slight sneer playing on his lips.
The once calm air currents on Jin'ao Island suddenly became restless, as if stirred up by an unseen behemoth.
The airflow, like layers of surging waves, roared in with overwhelming force, producing deafening booms.
At the same time, a sharp, piercing sound of wind arose, like the wailing of thousands of evil spirits, sending chills down one's spine.
Amidst this chaos, Laozi was the first to feel the unparalleled and powerful pressure emanating from the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
His wide Taoist robe was fluttering wildly in the gale, as if countless invisible hands were tearing at it, trying to rip it apart completely.
Faced with such a predicament, Lao Tzu inwardly groaned, but outwardly he still tried to remain calm.
He glared fiercely at the Tongtian Sect Leader, his deep eyes burning with anger and resentment.
He forced out a harsh word through gritted teeth: "Tongtian! This matter will not end here so easily!"
Before he finished speaking, Laozi suddenly mobilized all his magical power, and his body instantly shone with dazzling golden light.
Immediately afterwards, he transformed into a dazzling golden light, shooting straight into the sky like an arrow released from a bow.
........................
As Lao Tzu departed, the violent tremors and commotion on Jin'ao Island gradually subsided.
Seeing this, the Tongtian Sect Leader's lips curled into a disdainful smile. He lightly waved his sword, slowly retracting the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, muttering to himself, "Hmph, trying to gain an advantage or save face from me? Not so easy!"
In fact, Lao Tzu's ability to escape unscathed was intentional on his part.
After all, this is Jin'ao Island, the place where Tongtian Jiaozhu (Master of the Heavens) resides. If a major fight breaks out and his own territory is destroyed, it would be a great loss.
Standing to the side, Fairy Yunxiao witnessed this thrilling battle firsthand. Especially after feeling the terrifying power emanating from the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation up close, she couldn't help but feel a strong sense of shock deep in her heart.
"The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation... it's truly terrifying!" she exclaimed inwardly.
However, she still bowed respectfully and left.
Meanwhile, in the Heavenly Palace...
Inside the Lingxiao Palace!
The Jade Emperor sat on his dragon throne, his brows furrowed: "Is there something you need, my sages? Does any of my ministers know?"
Why is the sage making moves again lately?
What is going on?
Haotian was somewhat bewildered.
The officials below whispered amongst themselves, but no one dared to speak first.
After a long while, Venus stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, this is a matter for the sages, and we should not interfere. However, the entire primordial world is now interconnected, and a single move could have far-reaching consequences. Should we send someone to investigate?"
The Jade Emperor stroked his dragon beard, pondered for a moment, and then said, "No. The affairs of sages have their own cause and effect, and their own destiny. If we rashly inquire, we may bring trouble upon ourselves."
He thought about it and decided against it.
Damn, there are some things he can't get involved in.
"Your Majesty, the Great Tribulation of the Journey to the West is about to descend upon the mortal world in a few days. What should our Heavenly Court do?" Venus asked again with a solemn expression.
If you think about it carefully, it has been two or three hundred years since Sun Wukong was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain by the Buddha. In another two or three hundred years, he will be able to break free and regain his freedom!
When that time comes, the great calamity of Journey to the West will officially begin!
