BUZZ! Yun Xiao's Worldly Dao Heart shone brilliantly, and his present life's calamity vanished without a trace.
His Primordial Void Celestial Power, which was on the verge of exploding out of his Dantian, quickly stabilized. In fact, it started revolving even more smoothly around his Worldly Dao Heart, traces of tribulation power gradually integrating with it.
"Woah! Did our bro really survive the Present Life Calamity!?" Red Moon exclaimed in surprise.
"Just as we expected, his greed, wrath, foolishness, and lust really saved his neck!" Blue Star chuckled.
"I bet the fourth one was 50% of the reason he pulled through!!" Red Moon said, clicking his tongue.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... Too conservative! More like 80%...!" Blue Star mocked.
"You little shits! Figure out a way to help me instead of cracking jokes at my expense!" Yun Xiao cursed before taking a deep breath.
Yun Xiao wasn't relaxed at all, nor was he rejoicing. He knew he'd only survived the Present Life Calamity by the skin of his teeth. And he still had the Past and Future Life Calamity coming up!
"Bluey, translate for me! What did he actually mean by the four things he shouted!" Red Moon cackled, ignoring Yun Xiao.
"No problem, Reddy! Lemme dumb it down for you!" Blue Star replied. Then, he mimicked Yun Xiao's voice and said, "I want treasure! I have a bad temper! I love risking my life! And I want women!"
"Hahaha! You really do know our bro!" Red Moon laughed heartily.
"Screw the both of you! You know I still have to face two more calamities, right?" Yun Xiao was fuming. How could the two of them be so nonchalant in a situation like this!?
"Relax. Your past life is your origin, and your future life is still up in the air. After passing the Present Life Calamity, you're basically in the clear!" Blue Star assured, easing some of Yun Xiao's tension.
"Really?" Yun Xiao asked. It was no wonder that feeling of impending dread had disappeared! He had indeed survived, hadn't he?
That moment really did feel like a lifetime...
He'd essentially pulled himself out of the drowning waters and arrived on the other shore. Taking a deep breath, he emptied his mind and looked up at the heavens.
Yun Xiao's whole body relaxed. Yet the Worldly Dao Heart burned like the fiercest sun on the path of cultivation, guiding his undying journey ahead.
As long as it existed, it would mean that he was not done living, and he would continue experiencing all that life had to offer!
"Past life, and future life..."
Sure enough, Blue Star was right. The following calamities posed no danger to Yun Xiao.
The Past Life Calamity manifested as the shadow of the Creator Immortal. As it entered his Nine Suns Dantian, it glanced at his Worldly Dao Heart. Then, it immediately melted away and integrated into his celestial power.
"Hmm?"
Yun Xiao's Primordial Void spun, sparking a storm of power that surged out of his body.
BOOM! A wondrous, colorful vortex appeared before his eyes!
His Primordial Void seemed to be the key to this colorful vortex.
"Go take a look!" Blue Star said with profound meaning.
The Creator Immortal's cricket, who knew what that could be. Even the guard dog was now the Divine Desolation Demon God.
BUZZ! Yun Xiao exited the Myriad Daos Ocean of Calamity.
Back at the Harmony Divine Palace on the snowy mountain, Yun Xiao stood in a daze.
Without realizing it, the Future Life Calamity had already vanished. Its power had already integrated into his celestial power, albeit less so and not as distinct as the Present and Past Life Calamity.
"This is the power of the Three Lives Samsara Calamity!"
Yun Xiao could already feel the tribulation power of this Upper Burying Heaven grade Calamity Source taking root within his Primordial Void, beginning to trigger a huge transformation in his celestial power!
"The Sanguine Spirit Serpent Calamity evolved into the Sanguine Spirit Dragon Calamity after merging with Yao Yao. That puts it at Sealing Heaven grade. The Bleak Bone Wildfire Calamity Source my body double used is also Sealing Heaven grade...
"But my true self is straight up using a Burying Heaven grade Calamity Source for my First Baptism!"
No matter what kind of Corona formed, it was clear the nature of Yun Xiao's celestial power would continuously undergo major transformations!
The Burying Heaven grade Calamity Source was just that potent, even in the First Baptism Realm!
This was the biggest and most direct change from his breakthrough!
After that, it was time to inspect the Corona.
Yun Xiao quickly noticed a peculiarity in his tribulation power.
"A Boundless Light?"
This Boundless Light from the Myriad Daos Ocean of Calamity, which had merged with his celestial power, was also transforming Yun Xiao's tribulation power!
"Wait a moment!"
Moon Fairy had just come upon the last part of the introduction to the Three Lives Samsara Calamity Source!
"To complete the Eight Extremes Celestial Baptisms and reach the Eighth Baptism Realm, and to enter the Fifth Dao Tribulation, one must forge their Corona into a Boundless Corona to achieve the status of a Boundless Immortal.
"To forge a Boundless Corona, one must simultaneously endure eight Burying Heaven grade Calamity Sources and pass through eight tribulations. Success will then open the gate to the Myriad Daos Ocean of Calamity and grant a Boundless Light.
"A Boundless Light can forge a Boundless Corona.
"The Three Lives Samsara Calamity Source is commonly used by cultivators of extraordinary talent to achieve the status of a Boundless Immortal..."
Yun Xiao was utterly dumbfounded. He already possessed a Boundless Light! However, he had only endured one Burying Heaven grade Calamity Source, not eight simultaneously. Yet, he still managed to open a gate to the Myriad Daos Ocean of Calamity?
He remembered now; the Past Life Calamity had opened the gate, taking him back to the place where the Creator Immortal once spat.
"So what's my situation now? Am I in the Fourth Dao Tribulation or have I directly stepped into the Fifth Dao Tribulation?"
From the volume of his celestial power, Yun Xiao was definitely in the Fourth Dao Tribulation—and only in the First Baptism Realm at that, as the Fifth Dao Tribulation no longer cultivated the Corona.
But from the properties of his Corona, he had undoubtedly obtained the Boundless Corona that all cultivators of the Samsara Galaxy dreamed of forging...
