<h4>Chapter 1436: Chapter 1433: You Are Destined to Be the Center of Attention</h4>
After returning to the real world, Xu Wendong went directly to the Immortal Pce of the Female Emperor in Shangqing Country, where he met Fei Yan, Hongying, and Zi Yan, who were admiring flowers and sipping tea with the Female Emperor.
When they saw Xu Wendong appear, they were overjoyed.
If it weren’t for the presence of the Female Emperor.
They would have surely rushed into Xu Wendong’s embrace, expressing the bitterness of missing him during this time!
"It seems you’ve aplished your goal!" The Female Emperor smiled charmingly.
Xu Wendong nodded slightly, "Now we can prepare for the tribtion."
Once they heard Xu Wendong was going to face the tribtion, Fei Yan and the others immediately showed signs of unease, even though undergoing a tribtion is something every cultivator must experience.
But they also knew that the more astonishing one’s talent is, the more terrifying the power of the Heavenly Tribtion would be.
They were uncertain whether Xu Wendong could seed.
The Female Emperor waved her right hand, and a vast and boundless map of mountains and rivers appeared in the air, showcasing a map of the entire Human Realm, marked with severalrge uninhabited areas.
The Female Emperor spoke softly: "You can choose a suitable location."
Xu Wendong shared his opinion: "I n to go to Chaotic Star Sea, find a secluded islet to avoid attracting attention during the tribtion, so I can devote myself entirely to it!"
Perhaps because this was his first tribtion.
Xu Wendong was filled with an unknown fear and unease.
He always felt like something significant was about to happen.
Because of this, he decided to find a secluded ind to undergo the tribtion.
The Female Emperor shook her head with a smile: "It’s useless, your tribtion is destined to attract attention; cultivators across the Cultivation World will sense it wherever you go."
"Instead of hiding, it’s better to be open about it."
"Let people see — hope!"
"Hope?"
Those simple words made Xu Wendong show aplex expression.
Though the word ’hope’ is simple,
Sometimes, it is like a lighthouse in the darkness.
Guiding people to find the direction to move forward.
But...
Bearing this hope, he felt immense pressure!
Because he must seed and cannot fail!
"Since that’s the case, let the tribtion location be set at Phoenix Mountain, twenty thousand miles away!" Xu Wendong set his target on a mountain range resembling a Phoenix, miles away.
Phoenix Mountain is located at the border between Shangqing Country and Liyang Country, surrounded by mountains, and even on the map, Xu Wendong could see a spirit vein below.
The Female Emperor asked with concern, "What do you need me to do for you?"
Xu Wendong hesitated for a moment and said, "I need to break the Lock Heaven Great Formation."
The Female Emperor’s expression changed slightly: "I can agree to other things, but breaking the Lock Heaven Great Formation... the time isn’t right."
She was well aware of the intense hatred the Demon Race held towards the Human Race.
If Xu Wendong breaks the Lock Heaven Great Formation before the tribtion, the Demon Race will undoubtedly lead an army into the Human Realm, and given the Demon Race’s numbers, the Human Race simply can’t resist.
The result would be rivers of blood and heavy casualties.
Xu Wendong said in an indisputable tone, "This matter is not up for discussion, I must break the Lock Heaven Great Formation before undergoing the tribtion!"
Before leaving the Demon Realm, Xu Wendong promised the strong ones there that he would break the Lock Heaven Great Formation to help them regain their freedom.
This was his promise.
Even if he failed this tribtion, at least he would fulfill his promise to the strong ones of the Demon Realm.
Furthermore,
He needed to break the Lock Heaven Great Formation to gain the Demon Race’s power of belief.
This was also crucial for safely passing through the Heavenly Tribtion.
And most importantly,
The sess or failure of his tribtion would determine if the Human and Demon Races could coexist peacefully.
He needed this immense pressure to drive himself.
To ovee the Heavenly Tribtion.
He wanted to turn the pressure into a magical treasure to guarantee his sess over the tribtion!
"I can discuss this matter with the other Human Emperors..." The Female Emperor hadn’t finished speaking when she saw Xu Wendong already flying out of her Immortal Mansion.
The next moment, he appeared like a phantom above the Imperial City of Shangqing Country.
Then!
He activated his terrifying vital energy within.
In an instant.
The sky behind him was tinted blood-red, with demonic beasts of various shapes and ferocious looks visible in the blood clouds, filling the void and emitting an almost suffocating aura.
Not only did it make the void tremble, but it also caused the people in the city to feel a strong sense of oppression.
With fearful eyes, they looked towards the direction of the Imperial Pce.
They couldn’t believe anyone dared to unleash such a powerful spell above the pce.
This was clearly defying royal authority!
As Xu Wendong punched towards the pce before him, he clearly felt a chilling killing intent emanating from the Imperial City below.
Though he possessed the strength to rival a Ninth-Level Scatter Immortal, making him a supreme expert in the entire Cultivation World, he was not invincible.
There were people in this pce capable of defeating him, even killing him!
At the same time.
The Emperor of Shangqing Country, Li Daoshan, appeared ghostly in the air, wearing a shallow smile: "Young Master Xu, I know your thoughts, but... the Lock Heaven Great Formation cannot be broken now!"
Xu Wendong: "The Demon Race has been trapped for tens of thousands of years; it’s time to return their freedom."
Li Daoshan asked calmly, "Have you thought about what situation the Human and Demon Races would face if you failed the tribtion?"
Xu Wendong: "If the prophecy is true, I won’t fail!"
Li Daoshan had no words to counter.
He realized that not only was Xu Wendong unmatched inbat strength, he was also skilled in debate.
Indeed!
If he truly was the person in the prophecy, he wouldn’t fail.
Because he would lead everyone, from the Ancient Immortal Secret Realm, directly into the Immortal Realm.
"Royal brother, let Young Master Xu proceed; I do want to see if he can break the Lock Heaven Great Formation!"
From the pce below came an excited voice belonging to the State Preceptor Li Dao Qi.
Li Daoshan immediately ordered all pce residents to evacuate the pce.
And he, along with the other six Human Emperors and the Female Emperor who arrived after hearing the news, hovered in mid-air, awaiting the uing events!
They did not deny that Xu Wendong’s achievements in formations were unparalleled in history, but the Lock Heaven Great Formation was an extremelyplex and profound formation.
Arranged by eight powerful Ninth-Level Scatter Immortals, each guarding one of the Eight Countries, channeling the Power of the Nation’s Fate into it, not to mention ordinary people.
Even immortals found it difficult to break.
"Seniors, forgive me!"
Xu Wendong shouted softly and punched out.
In an instant.
Those demonic beasts behind him seemingly came to life, falling like a meteor shower towards the pce below.
And as the shadows of those beasts were about to reach the pce, a brilliant glow burst forth from the pce, followed by a gigantic rune soaring into the sky, blocking Xu Wendong’s earth-shattering attack.
Even though the demonic beastsnded on the rune, they couldn’t break through it!
Li Dao Qi’s voice slowly rang out, "Young Master Xu, your talent is exceptional, shining throughout history, but how could the Lock Heaven Great Formation be as simple as you imagine?"
