Chapter 0263: The Realm of Immortals!

As if to confirm the thoughts in Long Yi and the others’ minds, terrifying dragon powers surged forth at that moment, forcing Long Yi and his group to retreat once again, hundreds of miles away.
After retreating another hundred miles, they stared in horror at the yellow dragon in the sky. The source of those terrifying dragon powers was none other than the yellow dragon itself.
“What an overwhelming aura!” After a while, the Sea God Apton swallowed hard before uttering those words.
No one spoke. Long Yi and the others fixed their eyes intently on the yellow dragon high in the sky, not blinking.
“What do you think—what level of strength will Brother Yellow Dragon reach after this breakthrough?!” Long Yi finally spoke after a long silence.
What level?!
The Sea God Apton and the others fell into deep thought, the area falling silent. Previously, on Red Flame Planet, Yellow Dragon alone had been able to fight evenly against Realm King Oster and the five godly beings of Red Flame Domain. What would happen now after another breakthrough?!
No one dared to imagine further.
Yet, while filled with shock, awe, and envy, they also felt secret joy. The stronger Yellow Dragon became, the greater their chances of escaping the Last Law Planet. Although the dust storms in the starfields surrounding the Last Law Planet made it difficult even for ordinary mid-tier gods to pass through, what if Yellow Dragon achieved another breakthrough?!
Everyone grew eager.
Five days passed, and Yellow Dragon remained seated high in the sky, with the light around him growing increasingly intense. The chaotic natural energy had spread over a thousand miles in all directions. The Water and Fire Dual Dragons’ claws grew thicker and larger, while the coral horns on their heads sparkled with light.
Ten days later, Long Yi and his group had retreated over a thousand miles away. Now, they could no longer see Yellow Dragon himself—only a grayish mist in the air, with dust and debris floating in the sky. Faint dragon roars could be heard from time to time.
Above the Last Law Planet, the layer of astral energy within a hundred miles had vanished entirely. From afar, amidst the wind and thunder, it seemed as though ancient beasts trapped there were about to break free.
Over twenty days passed. Long Yi and his group continued to retreat, their initial excitement gradually giving way to anxiety. Due to the impact of Yellow Dragon’s breakthrough, the surface of the Last Law Planet kept cracking. At first, it was only in small areas, but it gradually expanded, affecting thousands of miles around Yellow Dragon. The ground trembled more and more violently, with cracking sounds, as if a dry tree were about to snap in two.
The fissures that once crisscrossed the surface of the Last Law Planet grew larger, with trapped air rising from beneath the ground. In some places, magma even began to erupt!

Long Yi and his companions had to fly at a height of thousands of feet, still having to be cautious of the magma flames that might erupt from the ground. These magma flames could sometimes shoot up thousands of feet into the air. “What should we do now? If this continues, the End of Laws Planet will surely collapse completely sooner or later!” Phoenix Simp said, looking anxious. Long Yi and the others’ expressions were no better; they hadn’t expected things to turn out this way. By then, the Yellow Dragon might not even have completed its breakthrough, and the planet would already be collapsing in a massive explosion, leaving them buried in a storm of stardust! This wasn’t just a prediction—it was an inevitable outcome! “But now that the Yellow Dragon brother is at a critical moment of breakthrough, should you go stop it? And besides, we can’t even stop it ourselves?!” said Sea God Apton. They couldn’t get even a hundred miles close to the Yellow Dragon—how could they stop it? “We can only leave it to fate!” Long Yi said with a bitter smile. Though dying like this was unacceptable, there was nothing they could do. The expressions of Sea God Apton and the others changed, and finally, with a sigh, they accepted Long Yi’s reasoning. As the End of Laws Planet began to collapse, the ground beneath the Yellow Dragon was the most severely affected. The hundreds of feet of rocks beneath it kept collapsing and sinking, gradually disappearing. The surrounding ground slowly collapsed as well. Dust filled the air, with more and more particles in the sky. Yet hundreds of miles away, these particles didn’t form a dust storm but simply hovered in the air, looking like a dense rain of small stones from above. However, around the Yellow Dragon’s body, its dragon energy surged, with water and fire dragons coiling around it, creating a clear area within several miles. Over millions of years, the spiritual energy from the Southern Yang Fire Spirit Pearl continuously flowed into the Yellow Dragon’s body, causing its vital energy to surge wildly. Like small rivers converging, it gradually turned into an ocean, which then condensed and continued to gather. At the same time, the vital energy underwent changes, turning white, with hints of gold within it. The Yellow Dragon’s mental and soul powers, just like its vital energy, began to expand and fill up. Above this sea of mental and soul powers, the Immortal-Slaying Sword and the Chaos Bell emitted dazzling light. Dark blue and gray lights intertwined. Especially the Immortal-Slaying Sword—its dark blue light formed a sea of darkness that trembled incessantly, as if trying to break free from its constraints. The Yellow Dragon was fully aware of the situation with the Immortal-Slaying Sword and the Chaos Bell above its mental and soul powers. Seeing the sword in such a state filled him with joy; it seemed his earlier guess was correct—once he reached the realm of an immortal, he would be able to activate the Immortal-Slaying Sword.

As time passed, the ten-thousand-year spiritual energy of the Nanyang Fire Spirit Pearl was gradually absorbed and melted by the Yellow Dragon. Eventually, the spirit pearl turned into a ball of fire and disappeared into the sky. At the moment the spirit pearl vanished, the Yellow Dragon’s body trembled uncontrollably, with its dantian and Sea of Soul shaking violently. Alarmed, the Yellow Dragon immediately activated the “Water-Fire Primordial Dragon Technique” at full strength to absorb the spiritual energy from its dantian. This energy rushed wildly through its meridians, mind, muscles, and bones. The Yellow Dragon’s body continued to tremble. After one day, two days, and even five days, it finally calmed down, and the spiritual energy in its dantian and throughout its body began to slowly circulate again, gradually being absorbed and melted by the Yellow Dragon. Meanwhile, on the Planet of the Last Era, the ground cracking became even more severe. At a glance, the planet seemed to be in terrible disarray—large areas had collapsed and split open, with terrifying fissures everywhere, leaving no intact land surface. As the ground collapsed, trapped underground gases and even magma flames burst forth, filling the sky. From afar, it resembled a volcano on the verge of eruption. Long Yi and the others, standing high in the sky, had to constantly dodge the increasingly frequent magma flames, their faces growing increasingly pale with despair. They had hoped that by the time the Yellow Dragon completed its breakthrough, the cracking on the Planet of the Last Era would stop. But now, whether the Yellow Dragon’s breakthrough was still ongoing or had ended, the cracking could no longer cease—the planet was doomed to destruction. “I never thought we’d still not be able to return to Tianyun!” Phoenix Simp said, dodging the magma flames erupting from the ground, his expression complex. They had overcome numerous difficulties, barely surviving to reach the Planet of the Last Era and even obtaining some treasures from the Blue Whale Temple. Yet in the end, they still died in Tianyun. Long Yi’s gaze darkened as he spoke solemnly, “I have no regrets. Having come to Tianyun, with Dragon Island destroyed, I have fulfilled the wish of my life.” Just as Sea God Apton was about to speak, he suddenly looked in horror toward the direction of the Yellow Dragon, his expression changing drastically. Stammering, he said, “Look, what’s that?!” Long Yi, Phoenix Simp, and Beilin all looked over and were stunned. Above the high altitude where the Yellow Dragon had been standing, clusters of dark clouds appeared out of nowhere. They quickly became denser and larger, spreading over an area of a hundred miles around the Yellow Dragon. These clouds grew increasingly dark, with lightning flashing within them. In the blink of an eye, those lightning bolts transformed into terrifying thunder dragons, emitting an oppressive aura that made it difficult for Long Yi and the others, thousands of miles away, to breathe.

As Long Yi and the others were shocked, the Yellow Dragon had already finished its cultivation and stood high in the sky, gazing upward.
A celestial calamity!
It was finally time to face the celestial calamity!
Once passed, it would allow him to absorb the essence of immortals and achieve an immortal body!
There was no fear in the Yellow Dragon’s eyes—only joy.
He never expected that in this world, even after reaching the peak of cultivation before facing the calamity, a celestial calamity would still descend.
Within the thunder clouds high in the sky, a massive vortex formed. As it spun, it continuously drew in those thunder dragons, releasing pressures even more terrifying than before.
Finally, those thunder dragons, which had been brewing within the thunder clouds, broke free from the vortex and rushed downward with roars, unleashing intense lightning.
Standing high in the sky, the Yellow Dragon laughed heartily upon seeing this. Instead of retreating, it soared upward, let out a deep roar, and struck with its fists.
Boom!
The surrounding space trembled violently, even forming spatial cracks as chaotic energy surged forth.
The Yellow Dragon dipped its body, while the thunder dragons, scattered by its attacks, turned into pure lightning energy that washed over its body. It quickly used its cultivation techniques to absorb this energy, refining its body once again.
The thunder clouds seemed enraged by the Yellow Dragon’s actions. As the vortex spun faster, an even more powerful thunder dragon stretched out its claws and charged at the Yellow Dragon.
The Yellow Dragon did not summon its Bagua Purple Longevity Robe. Its long hair fluttered in the wind, its eyes gleamed, and it spread its hands. Intense lightning surged, forming chains of purple lightning.
Divine Lightning Shackles!
It charged forward, and another shock resonated between heaven and earth.
Its energy radiated outward, sweeping through the surrounding space, turning the dust and rocks floating above the Last Age Planet to nothingness.
In this way, it successfully endured eight celestial lightning strikes. By absorbing the energy from these strikes, the Yellow Dragon felt its body grow stronger once more.
Only one celestial lightning strike remained.
At this point, the Yellow Dragon also summoned its Bagua Purple Longevity Robe, Thunder Gathering Vessel, and Immortal Pavilion. Facing the final strike, it dared not be careless.
However, after the eight previous strikes, the final strike did not follow immediately. After a while, it continued to brew within the thunder cloud vortex. The more this happened, the more solemn the Yellow Dragon’s expression became. When the final strike arrived, the surrounding space began to collapse bit by bit.
The Yellow Dragon’s expression changed. Although each of the previous eight strikes had grown more powerful, they were only a few times stronger at most. Yet this final strike was several times stronger than the eighth one!
