Shen Changqing, residing in Zhongzhou, now sets his sights on Guzhou. The Heavenly Tribulation may hinder the gaze of others, but it has no effect on him.

Not to mention Shen Changqing's current strength, being the Lord of the Changqing Realm alone allows him to ignore the obstruction of the Heavenly Tribulation before his eyes.

Only a familiar figure could be seen bathed in the midst of the Heavenly Tribulation, their aura brimming with mystical profundity. Although they stood firmly within the Heavenly Tribulation, it seemed as if they existed in a completely different space from it.

No matter how powerful the tribulation may be, it can never truly harm him.

"Minghe!"

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

Shen Changqing's eyebrows shot up.

Ming He inherited the Confucian and Taoist philosophies of his predecessors, and later surpassed them in excellence, creating the "Nine Ranks of Saints," which is considered unparalleled throughout history.

Today's tribulation appearing, clearly Ming He has already comprehended the realm of a saint nine ranks and ascended to a higher level.

Like Dongfang Zhao, Minghe is also considered a prodigious talent who has opened up a new path.

Although Confucianism and Taoism were once created by predecessors, their ceiling was low. Minghe single-handedly pushed Confucianism and Taoism to where they are today, which is evident for all to see.

When the celestial calamity fell, Shen Changqing could also feel that the rules of heaven and earth in the entire Changqing realm were undergoing subtle changes.

When he looked at the rules of heaven and earth, he could see the river of Confucian and Taoist rules. It had changed from a trickle to a flowing river.

“The rules of Confucianism and Taoism have expanded greatly. It seems that Minghe's breakthrough this time is extraordinary. First, there was the Longevity Dao, and now there is the Confucian Dao. The human race is gradually entering a prosperous era of ten thousand paths flourishing!”

The more cultivation systems there are, the stronger the rules of heaven and earth can be.

As the Lord of the Evergreen Realm, Shen Changqing could naturally feel the changes within the entire Evergreen Realm. Although Minghe had just broken through the shackles of the ninth rank of Saint, the real changes brought to the Evergreen Realm were limited.

But it is undeniable that the long-lived world has indeed become stronger.

When Confucian and Taoist teachings flourish, more and more cultivators will practice Confucianism and Taoism. As a result, the rules of Confucianism and Taoism will become increasingly powerful, and in turn, they will nourish heaven and earth.

On the other side.

The heavenly tribulation is immense.

The mysterious ripples that once enveloped Ming He were finally pushed to their limit in the face of the supreme celestial tribulation. With a deafening roar, they shattered.

Power shattered.

Minghe's face remained unchanged. He used his finger as a brush, and in the blink of an eye, he divided heaven and earth into yin and yang. With a simple stroke, it seemed as distant as the ends of the earth.

All the descending Heavenly Tribulation power was weakened to the extreme by Infinite Distance, and when it finally came down, it had little to no impact on Ming He himself.

The heavenly tribulation lasted for several days.

Lightning covered everything.

Many powerful individuals in Guzhou looked toward the direction of the heavenly tribulation, but they dared not approach it.

The power of the heavenly tribulation here is extraordinary. Even a god king might not be able to withstand it. If one were to approach rashly, there's a high chance of being struck by the tribulation lightning.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

At that time.

Then, there is a possibility of its downfall.

"Boom--"

As the last tribulation thundered down, righteous qi soared into the heavens, faintly resembling a river of Confucian and Taoist principles flowing through the void. The entire ancient state's human race could clearly hear it.

>

For a moment.

Many ancient Guzhou people had a mysterious sense of enlightenment, as if they had comprehended the principles of Confucian and Taoist classics from the river of rules. Naturally, righteous indignation grew in their hearts.

And that's a wrap.

This caused many sects to be furious.

"To dare preach recklessly in Güzhou, you're looking for death!"

"Such a small Confucian sect, how dare you—"

Seeing their own sect disciples nurturing righteous qi, some veteran powerhouses finally couldn't stand it anymore. They were all furious and attacked Minghe Town from afar.

They had also heard of the name "Ru Zong," and even the strongest within the sect were only comparable to those in the Divine Realm.

Even if the person in front of them had crossed the tribulation and their strength could rival that of a God King, they remained indifferent.

>

Only to see several divine kings reaching out from afar, terrifying power surging in the sky above Guzhou. The void resembled a mirror shattering, and the overwhelming aura caused many people's expressions to change drastically.

Minghe's expression remained unchanged, his righteous aura outlining the void. In an instant, he divided heaven and earth, yin and yang, dissolving all the forces attacking from afar into nothingness.

Then.

He again used his finger as a brush and righteous indignation as ink. With a sweep of his hand in the air, he splashed ink, and with each stroke, the rules of the great Dao were fully displayed.

>

The sky is falling.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Void Shatters.

All the sects where the Divine Kings resided were enveloped by an extremely terrifying force. As they were about to be crushed, these Divine King powerhouses could no longer sit idly by.

In an instant.

One by one, the divine kings rose into the air. Gazing at the terrifying power that shattered the void, their expressions were heavy with concern as they hurriedly summoned their sect's treasures to defend against it.

Boom——

A terrifying wave erupted, its colossal power sweeping across half the ancient state's sky.

Only to see several venerable divine kings being suppressed by this power and falling down. Although they didn't suffer any real injuries, their qi and blood were churning incessantly. When they looked in the direction where Ming He was, their eyes revealed astonishment.

The opponent had just gone through a heavenly tribulation and could suppress several divine kings from afar. Such terrifying power left these sect masters feeling a chill down their spines.

Toward the direction of Heavenly Dao Sect.

Shen Xu witnessed Ming He suppressing the divine kings of various sects with his own eyes, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Magnificent righteous qi... quite interesting. To possess such strength right after surviving the heavenly tribulation, let this deity see just how far your limits truly extend!"

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He finished speaking.

The deity pointed out from afar with a divine finger.

The rules point to a terrifying power that shatters heaven and earth, like an abyss of horror. Minghe's heart is filled with great fear.

"Heaven's Dao Sect!"

Ming He's face turned serious. If there was any force in Gu Zhou that rivaled the Imperial Court, it would be the Heavenly Dao Sect.

That Heavenly Dao Sect Sect Master, he had also fought with the other party before.

But the difference is, back then Minghe was just a first-rank saint, now he has broken through the limits of saints and stepped into another realm.

So.

When he saw Shen Xu reaching out from afar, Ming He did not show any fear. He directly used his blood as ink and wrote the character "kill" in mid-air.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

As soon as the word "kill" was uttered.

It was as if thousands of troops were charging, and it was like an endless battlefield had been born, surging with killing intent that shattered the void, causing the sun and moon to dim.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The rule indicates that Gang and Slaughter clashed, causing the world to tremble violently. From this cataclysmic collision, the very fabric of heaven and earth shattered and was reduced to nothingness.

"Boom!"

The character for "kill" is shattered.

Ming He's expression was as usual, writing several killing characters again before neutralizing the power of the rule finger.

This blow, delivered from afar, undeniably ended with Minghe's defeat.

After all.

Shenxu's strike was a telekinetic attack, its power spanning across the endless void. Minghe countered with several consecutive strikes in one breath, barely managing to neutralize the blow.

"Ru Sect..."

Shen Xu saw that his own attack hadn't dealt as much damage to Ming He as he expected. His brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't make another move.

The Ru Sect has deep ties with the Imperial Court, and rumors even suggest a connection to the Lord of the Evergreen Realm. Shen Xu also didn't want to completely sever relations with them.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

It was only after Minghe had successfully passed the Heavenly Tribulation that the Confucian and Taoist rules manifested as a vast river in the ancient state. This caused quite a stir, openly challenging the authority of the Tian Dao Sect and causing them to lose face. Therefore, Shenxu made a move from afar, putting an end to it.

If Minghe can't withstand this strike, it only means the opponent's cultivation is too shallow. But since he blocked it, Shenxu won't make a second move.

Other powerful figures witnessed Shen Xu's remote strike failing to completely suppress Ming He. This raised their level of vigilance toward the leader of the Confucian sect even further.

As is well known.

Shen Xu is now the top expert in the Changqing Realm.

Apart from Shen Changqing and Lü Xian, the other three sect masters of Shen Xu and the other sects are all at the top.

Such powerhouses have already stepped into the peak of True Immortals, just one step away from proving to be Dao Immortals.

Such a powerful figure appearing, yet unable to suppress Ming He who had just achieved enlightenment, shows how terrifying his strength truly is.

On the other side.

Ming He also looked in the direction of the Heaven Dao Sect, a faint smile playing on his lips: "Heaven Dao Sect... when this seat has the opportunity someday, I will definitely go and learn from you!"

This time marks the second instance he's suffered losses at the hands of Shenxu. Although Minghe considers himself a generous person, some matters still require settling.

However.

Ming He also understands the gap between himself and Shen Xu. Right now, he has just broken through the barrier of the ninth rank of Saints, barely stepping into the level of a God King.

Shenxu had already reached the peak of True Immortal decades ago. Now, he is probably already striving for the Dao Immortal realm.

The gap between the two in terms of their cultivation levels was enormous. It would be extremely difficult to bridge such a vast difference.

It was at that moment.

>

A faint ripple ran through the space, and someone appeared suddenly.

>

When Minghe saw the arrival, he was stunned for a moment, then bowed and saluted: "Disciple greets Master!"

"I didn't expect you to comprehend the realms above Saint Rank Nine so quickly. It seems that Confucianism and Taoism are indeed a perfect fit for you!"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing looked at Ming He in front of him, his eyes full of approval.

The other party's previous life was a monstrous existence, and even in their rebirth, they were incredibly gifted. They could single-handedly elevate Confucianism and Taoism to a level comparable to that of a God King. Even throughout the heavens, they could be considered one of the top prodigies.

Especially the scene where Minghe fought with other gods and Shenxu, Shen Changqing also saw it with his own eyes.

The subtle mysteries of Confucianism, Daoism, and esoteric teachings.

This also made him feel deeply.

Ming He laughed and said, "Thank you, Master, for pointing this out earlier. Only then could the disciple understand the realm of the Sage of Confucianism and Taoism. If not for Master, the disciple would probably still be cultivating in seclusion within the Confucian Sect, struggling to find this realm."

>

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Great Sage of Confucianism and Daoism!

Shen Changqing nodded.

This is a test.

Those who are nine ranks or above of saints are considered great saints. The names of these realms were divided by the creator, and naturally, he had no objections to this.

Just then.

Minghe cautiously asked, "Over the past few months, there have been drastic changes in the spiritual energy of the world within Changqing Realm. The entire world seems to have undergone some transformations. Could it be due to your actions, Master"

Except for the person before him, he couldn't think of anyone else who could wield such divine powers that would shake the heavens and earth.

Although Minghe already had some answers in his heart, he still wanted to ask.

Hearing the other party's inquiry, Shen Changqing calmly smiled and said: "Not long ago, I killed some gods in the heavens, and just left a portion of the gods' blood to nourish heaven and earth."
