It had been six thousand years. Bai An was now six thousand years old, but his face was still the same as it had been in the past. He looked like a young man, but there was a hint of vicissitudes in his eyes as if he had lost a lot of things.

Six thousand years was too long. Even the young man who had been elegant and graceful in the past had been polished by time, and he had grown step by step until now.

When his family and friends and his past enemies all passed away, he inevitably began to change. There was a kind of tempering in his mind, and he grew to his current level.

However, he was still powerful. His Qi Blood was like a furnace, melting the laws of heaven and earth in all directions.

The Qi Blood soared into the sky, turning into a pillar of blood that soared into the sky. No matter where one was in the mystic realm, one could easily see it, shocking countless powerhouses.

Even powerhouses of the same level were shocked. Because when they were at this age, their Qi Blood was far from this exuberant. They should have weakened a long time ago.

However, Bai An was still the same as before. His Qi blood was still like a young man’s.

A wave of clear Qi rushed out from Bai An’s head. It was vast and boundless. Finally, it evolved in midair and turned into a huge Dao diagram. It attracted the thunderbolts from all directions and did not affect the outside world.

“It’s heaven-defying…”

Looking at this scene, the people around were amazed. “Not only is his Qi Blood like a dragon, but he has also always maintained his peak condition. Even his soul is so powerful. He has already reached the limit of this level.”

“The probability of him surviving this catastrophe is fifty percent!”

The fifty percent probability seemed low, but it was frighteningly high.

Since ancient times, breaking through to the Heavenly Venerate level was difficult. Without the determination to die without a doubt and the firm conviction to press forward, it was impossible to reach this step.

This was the biggest test for one’s cultivation. In breaking through to the Heavenly Venerate level, whether it was the body, the soul, the true spirit, or even one’s own Dao Foundation and laws, they would all be targeted. As long as there was a weakness in one aspect, it would fail.

It was precisely because of this that so many people failed. Even many powerhouses were traumatized by this and did not dare to fight with all their might. They continued to move forward.

If they did not dare to fight with all their might, it would be equivalent to having an incomplete Dao determination and a flawed soul. It would be even more impossible for them to complete the advancement and transcend as a Heavenly Venerate.

However, Bai An did not lack these things at the moment. Over six thousand years, his Dao Foundation and soul had long been polished and completed. Even his Qi Blood was preserved under the seal and tempering of the ancient sword.

Now, it was frighteningly exuberant, as terrifying and powerful as a heavenly dragon in the world.

At this moment, he was undoubtedly standing on another stage. It was the most powerful moment in his life and the most suitable time for a breakthrough.

If it weren’t now, his foundation would be lacking, he wouldn’t be able to perfect it, and the probability of him advancing would be affected.

However, if this time passed, his Qi Blood would gradually decline, and his soul and true spirit would also gradually decay. At that time, the probability of him advancing would decrease, but it would also affect his future achievements.

The choice of this time was also very important. Standing in the void and feeling the rolling thunder, Bai An raised his head. His youth-like face was filled with coldness.

In the next moment, he charged out.

A massive cosmic form appeared behind him. Layers of heaven and earth Gen Qi were absorbed by it and surged out, supporting the cosmic form.

In the beginning, it seemed ordinary and didn’t have much mystical power. However, as time passed, it became more powerful and terrifying, reaching a peak.

A phantom of a strange beast appeared. Its body was many miles long, and the sharp edges on its head roared toward the sky. Then, the profound meanings of the laws continued to evolve, and all kinds of secret techniques emerged.

The strange beast roared and flew up into the sky, turning into a divine phoenix. Its body was surrounded by rolling flames, which were the flames of the laws. They were extremely clear and terrifying.

Rumble!

The secret realm was shaking, and a terrifying aura interweaved, causing the entire area to become chaotic. It was about to fall into an abyss of destruction, about to be destroyed.

Fortunately, the Dao patterns and spell formations left behind by the eternal Heavenly Venerate protected this place. At this moment, many powerhouses from the Eternal Dynasty were attacking, and they were barely able to block the vast Heavenly Catastrophe, isolating it from the outside world.

Otherwise, with the strength of the Heavenly Catastrophe, it might be able to tear apart this secret realm and turn this immortal-like holy land into a land of peril, destroying it.

The grand spell formation was activated to block the lightning outside. However, everyone looked at the flickering lightning before them, and their faces were still filled with shock. It was as if they were shocked by the strength of the Heavenly Catastrophe.

“Something’s wrong!”

A powerhouse said as he looked at the lightning in the sky. At this moment, his face was filled with uncertainty. “Why is the Heavenly Catastrophe… so terrifying?”

The Eternal Dynasty was not an ordinary force. The Eternal Heavenly Venerate who founded the Eternal Dynasty was undoubtedly the most powerful Heavenly Venerate. According to Chen Heng’s calculations, he could be ranked among the Ninth Ring.

In the tens of thousands of years after the Eternal Heavenly Venerate, many powerhouses in the Eternal Dynasty tried to become a Heavenly Venerate. Therefore, they had a clear record of what happened when a Heavenly Venerate was promoted.

All the experts present knew about it on purpose. From what they knew, the Heavenly Catastrophe that Bai An was facing was a little too powerful. This level of Heavenly Catastrophe had already surpassed ordinary Heavenly Venerate Catastrophes and reached another level.

“Why is it like this?”

They were shocked and confused. They didn’t understand what had gone wrong.

Logically speaking, although the power of the Heavenly Venerate Catastrophe was different depending on the situation of the person undergoing the catastrophe, there should not be such a big difference.

Such a terrifying catastrophe was no longer Catastrophe Transcension but killing. It was far beyond what the person undergoing the catastrophe should be able to handle.

They did not understand, but they were ready to make a move. If Bai An were defeated in this Heavenly Catastrophe, they would immediately attack and use their Heavenly Weapons to save him.

Although Bai An’s Heavenly Venerate Catastrophe would fail, at least he would be able to survive.

This thought flashed through their minds, and they were ready. But soon, the changes in front of them stunned them.

In mid-air, thunder rumbled, covering the sky and earth, covering the entire arcane pocket realm.

If they were in the arcane pocket realm, the creatures within it would raise their heads. No matter how they looked, they would only be able to see a patch of lightning.

The lightning was so dense that it seemed to have turned into a sea of lightning. It was extremely terrifying and powerful. The sea of lightning covered the entire arcane pocket realm.

However, at that moment, more abnormalities appeared under the lightning. As the Heavenly Catastrophe evolved, illusory figures flew out and revealed their forms in the depths of the lightning.

They were Heavenly Weapons. Some of the Heavenly Weapons were like long swords. There was a thick, bloody aura exuding from them. It was as if they had destroyed countless great worlds, and they represented the essence of slaughter.

This was the Sword of Buddha.

Then there was an ancient mirror, and its body was simple and unadorned. Many deep Dao patterns covered its surface and wrapped around it to form a unique mark. As the light spread out, rays of light appeared, it was as if it contained the supreme profundity and laws of nothingness, and it was shocking.

This was the Sky Mirror.

Other than the two Earth Heavenly Weapons, the illusory images of Heavenly Weapons appeared in the vast lightning.

For example, the Dragon Slaying Saber and the God Slaying Spear had long since been lost. However, the Earth Heavenly Weapons that had always appeared in legends were now all displayed within, revealing a phantasm.

Even though it was only a hazy phantasm, it was still extremely powerful. Within it, a mark representing the heavens and earth appeared. That power was boundless, spreading out in all directions as it charged toward Bai An.

In an instant, his body was covered in blood, leaving deep marks on it. The power of the four Heavenly Weapons spread, and all sorts of different Heavenly Weapons attacked Bai An together with the lightning around him.

This change shocked countless living beings. Even the array around the mystic realm rumbled as if it couldn’t withstand this might and was about to be destroyed.

The powerhouses watching the battle revealed expressions of shock.

“Armed Catastrophe!”

Some people turned pale with shock and disbelief. “What’s going on?”

“Why is there an Armed Catastrophe?”

During the catastrophe, a Heavenly Weapon needed to be chosen, and all sorts of images of Heavenly Weapons would appear to temper it. This was a sign that only a Heavenly Weapon would undergo a catastrophe, and it was an extremely profound Armed Catastrophe.

Generally speaking, Heavenly Weapons would need to undergo at least seven Armed Catastrophe before it was possible for the phantoms of Heavenly Weapons to appear and temper them.

However, Bai An was a cultivator, so why would such a scene that only appeared during an Armed Catastrophe appear.

“Could it be that Bai’s ancestor is actually a Heavenly Weapon in the form of a human, and that’s why he’s so amazing, taking one step at a time until now?”

Someone made a guess, and it actually seemed very reasonable.

Even within the Eternal Dynasty, Bai An’s performance was also very amazing. However, after thousands of years, he had reached this step and could be considered one of the top Heavenly Gifted Individuals in this world.

If such a Heavenly Gifted Individual were said to be a powerful Heavenly Weapon in disguise, then it would make sense. However, once he said this, he was quickly refuted.

“The Heavenly Weapon in the form of a human is originally a kind of deduction and speculation of the ancient people regarding the Heavenly Weapon. There are no actual examples, so it’s not worth talking about.”

Someone on the side spoke up and refuted, “Moreover, even if the Heavenly Weapon in the form of a human is a human, it should have already left the Heavenly Weapon and shouldn’t have gone to transcend the Heavenly Weapon Tribulation.”

“It’s not him. It’s the ancient sword in his hand!”

Finally, someone spoke up and revealed the truth.

Their gazes moved forward, and they quickly noticed the difference. This was because at this moment, as Bai An went through the catastrophe, the ancient sword in his hand was glowing.

That radiance spread and was exposed, giving people a terrifying feeling. It was like a sharp divine sword hanging above the soul. It could stab down at any time. That kind of terror made people feel terrified.
