World's Strongest Martial Warrior

1Peter Parker disregarded Old Man Cang Ya's presence, his gaze fixed on the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Universe with a mix of curiosity and skepticism. "If more individuals from the Canglan Universe break through and ascend, that would be beneficial for you, wouldn't it? So why are you preventing them from achieving ascension?"    

    

The cause of this predicament was the old ancestor of the Canglan Saint Sect," the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Universe replied, his eyes narrowing as he regarded Old Man Cangya with a frosty demeanor. "I once struck a deal with Old Man Canglan, lending him half of the Heavenly Dao Origin. We had an understanding that once the Canglan Sacred Clan had five members ascend, they would return the Heavenly Dao Origin to me. But that deceitful man reneged on our agreement!"    

    

The Heavenly Dao Origin is the quintessential essence of the Heavenly Dao, and a breakthrough to Immortal Dao Seeking, culminating in immortality within the Canglan Universe, would indeed enhance this core power, greatly benefitting him.    

    

Now, with Ancestor Canglan having commandeered half of the Heavenly Dao Origin, he had effectively commandeered half of its associated benefits as well.    

    

Had Ancestor Canglan not overstepped, the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Universe would never have barred the martial artists from reaching immortality—a decision that led to the injury of eight hundred foes and the loss of a thousand allies.    

    

Upon hearing this, Peter Parker inwardly shook his head, understanding the gravity of the situation.    

    

It was no surprise then that the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Universe had sealed the Azure Valley, denying the Canglan Sacred Sect any further opportunities for ascension. The sect's founder had audaciously sought to claim half of the Canglan Universe's Heavenly Dao Origin for himself.    

    

After a moment of contemplation, Peter lifted his head to address the Canglan Universe's Heavenly Dao directly. "I'd like to propose a deal to you. Are you open to it?"    

    

The Canglan Universe's Heavenly Dao responded with a cold snort, "Save your breath. Humans are far too sly for my liking; I cannot trust you. I will bestow upon you the Heavenly Dao Mark of the Canglan Universe, allowing you to initiate the Immortal Tribulation and ascend. Beyond that, there is nothing more to discuss."    

    

"Don't rush to decline. Hear me out first," Peter Parker said with a faint smile. "Once I enter the Immortal World, I'll seek out Ancestor Canglan and request that he returns the Heavenly Dao Origin to you. In exchange, you must agree not to hinder the people of the Canglan Universe in their breakthroughs. And when individuals from my Divine Realm arrive to advance in the Canglan Universe, you'll assist them as well. What do you say?"    

    

The Canglan Universe's gaze shimmered for a moment before he nodded in agreement. "Fine. If Ancestor Canglan restores my Heavenly Dao Origin, I have no objections."    

    

If this young man could indeed persuade Ancestor Canglan to restore the Heavenly Dao Origin, allowing both the Canglan Universe and the Divine Realm inhabitants to successfully ascend, it would be a win-win situation. The Canglan Universe would certainly welcome such an outcome.    

    

Furthermore, even if Peter failed to convince Ancestor Canglan, there would be no loss on his part.    

    

It was for this reason that the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Universe didn't dismiss Peter Parker's proposal.    

    

Without further hesitation, the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Universe formed a seal with his hands, swiftly creating a Heavenly Dao Mark and infusing it into Peter Parker's body.    

    

"This Heavenly Dao Seal is the key to initiating the Immortal Tribulation, allowing you to break through to the True Immortal realm and ascend to the Immortal World. With your strength at the perfection-stage of the Sovereign Realm, you can activate this seal at any time while in the Canglan Universe to trigger the Immortal Tribulation," he explained.    

    

Peter Parker grinned and expressed his gratitude. "Thank you very much." With the Heavenly Dao Seal in his possession, his path to the Immortal World was assured.    

    

"Peter..." Old Man Cang Ya watched with a touch of envy. He was eager for Peter Parker to secure a Heavenly Dao Mark for him as well.    

    

However, before Peter could respond, the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Universe spoke up coolly, "There's no need for further discussion. I won't be granting a Heavenly Dao Mark to the members of the Canglan Sacred Sect just yet. Once you reach the Immortal World, ask Ancestor Canglan to return the Heavenly Dao Origin to me. Then, they will have their opportunity to ascend."    

    

"That's fine too."    

    

Peter Parker nodded, then turned to Old Man Cang Ya and said, "As you can see, Old Man Cang Ya, it's not that I'm unwilling to help you. How about waiting a bit longer? Once I've entered the Immortal World... I'm confident your patriarch will be found quickly to settle this issue."    

    

Peter Parker wasn't particularly concerned with the Canglan Universe inhabitants' ability to ascend, but he did want to ensure a path to immortality for the people of the Divine Realm.    

    

So...    

    

Upon his entry into the Immortal World, he would certainly seek out the ancient forebear of the Canglan Saint Sect and assist the Canglan Universe's Heavenly Dao in reclaiming the lost half of its origin!    

    

"Then I shall await the good news from you, Peter."    

    

Despite his reluctance, the old man ultimately nodded in agreement.    

    

Their current inability to ascend could be attributed to the selfish actions of their Canglan Sacred Sect's founder.    

    

The Navy Tide Universe's Heavenly Dao, having been deceived by Old Man Cang Lan, held no fondness for their Navy Tide Sacred Sect. It now seemed improbable that they would be granted the Heavenly Dao Imprint to facilitate their breakthrough.    

    

Their hopes now rested solely with Peter Parker.    

    

"Don't worry. It may take a few years, or at most a few decades, but I will resolve this issue."    

    

Peter Parker looked up at Old Man Cang Ya. "Please send a messenger to the Divine Domain on my behalf and inform them that I am heading to the Immortal World. A peak overlord from the God Domain should carry the Emperor's Palace token to the Canglan Universe for their ascension!"    

    

"Understood, I will ensure it's done."    

    

With those final words, Old Man Cang Ya's form flashed, transforming into a streak of light that surged out of the Green Sky Valley.    

    

Once Old Man Cang Ya had vanished, Peter Parker's gaze lingered before he took a deep breath, preparing himself.    

    

All was in readiness, save for the opportune moment.    

    

Next, he would break through to the Immortal Realm of Eternal Life and ascend to the Immortal World at the Universe's Origin.    

    

"Kid, if you're about to face your tribulation and ascend, you'd better not do it in Sky Bearing Valley. My place simply can't handle that kind of upheaval."    

    

The Canglan Universe's Heavenly Dao gave Peter Parker a fleeting glance before disappearing in the blink of an eye.    

    

"I'm curious whether the system will automatically shield me from the Immortal Tribulation when I advance to the True Immortal Realm."    

    

Peter Parker murmured to himself, reflecting on the words of the Canglan Universe.    

    

Subsequently...    

    

He shook his head, vanishing and reappearing just outside Qing Cang Valley in an instant.    

    

This time, he was up against the Immortal Tribulation, a force far surpassing the Heavenly Tribulation. Peter Parker was uncertain if the system had the capability to fend off the Immortal Tribulation.    

    

To be on the safe side, he decided against initiating the Immortal Tribulation within Qing Cang Valley.    

    

"Let's get started."    

    

Standing resolutely in the void beyond the valley, Peter Parker inhaled deeply and activated the Heavenly Dao Seal within him.    

    

Suddenly...    

    

The Heavenly Dao Seal fused with Peter Parker's being. The earth and sky quaked as if an immortal portal had flung open in the celestial realm. A thundercloud, brimming with immense immortal energy, burst forth from the portal, blanketing hundreds of thousands of miles in mere moments.    

    

"So this is the Immortal Tribulation..."    

    

Peter Parker looked up at the imposing thundercloud, filled with a sense of awe, and whispered to himself.    

    

The Immortal Tribulation, marking the passage to the Eternal Realm of the Sovereign Realm, was truly formidable.    

    

For any typical Sovereign Realm expert, the mere brush with the Immortal Lightning would likely mean instant annihilation.
