"True Immortal... I wonder which True Immortal it was?"
Lin Fei's eyes shimmered with a unique light. The method used by the mysterious True Immortal just now was nothing short of miraculous, beyond Lin Fei's understanding. He could surmise, however, that it likely involved the Dao and laws.
Yet, his realm was far inferior to that of a Dao Integration True Immortal, so naturally, he couldn't comprehend it fully. A Dao Integration True Immortal, an entity on par with a Martial Ancestor, embodied the epitome of greatness. True immortals, indestructible, whose lifespans matched the heavens themselves. Such beings truly stood at the pinnacle of the Divine Realm, overlooking all creation.
"Martial God Lin, the True Immortal has already given instructions. You need not compensate for the tribulation site. In fact, the True Immortal has reinforced the site, so if you come for tribulation again, such an incident will not recur."
This Martial God seemed somewhat embarrassed. The tribulation site had been in good condition, but Lin Fei's tribulation had completely destroyed it, even necessitating the intervention of a lofty Dao Integration True Immortal.
"That was Grand Unity True Immortal from Unified Dao!"
Lin Fei nodded in acknowledgment and gestured respectfully towards the direction of the Unified Dao: "My thanks to the True Immortal!"
Since Lin Fei was not required to compensate for the destruction of the tribulation site, he naturally welcomed the relief from this potential burden. Without much regard for the shocked gazes of the others, he promptly left the tribulation area.
The news of Lin Fei withstanding seven heavenly thunders in his tribulation quickly spread like wildfire throughout the Divine Realm. The seventh thunder was particularly terrifying, almost without precedent in historical records.
Yet now, there was a record. The seventh thunder, massive and destructive like a colossal pillar of light, was not something a Martial God was expected to withstand. But Lin Fei had done just that. Speculations about the extent of Lin Fei's current realm and strength were rampant, with numerous theories circulating.
Regardless of what others speculated, Lin Fei returned to his residence and entered a secret chamber. His expression grew solemn. "There seems to be a problem with my body," he murmured to himself.
After passing the fifth thunder tribulation and enduring the seventh thunder, Lin Fei felt something was amiss with his body. It was strange. Every move he made felt like he was bound by invisible "shackles," as if something was restricting him, causing discomfort. Yet, he had successfully passed the fifth thunder tribulation.
"System," Lin Fei immediately called up the system to check his status.
Host: Lin Fei
Martial Cultivation Realm: Martial God (Fifth Thunder Tribulation)
Great Dream Heart Sutra: Second Level (Progress 1%)
Four Symbols and Five Elements Creation Technique: One Thousand Nine Hundred Particle Worlds
Lin Fei scrutinized his realm, indeed confirming his advancement to the fifth thunder tribulation. His Particle Worlds remained at one thousand nine hundred, for he had not yet utilized the seven newly acquired world laws to create additional Particle Worlds. Once he did, he would add seven hundred more, bringing the total to two thousand six hundred Particle Worlds.
However, Lin Fei didn't immediately set out to create these new Particle Worlds. He was concerned about the peculiar condition of his body. Without understanding the nature of this issue, he refrained from rashly expanding his Particle Worlds.

In the secrecy of his chamber, Lin Fei extended his hand, gently waving it. He distinctly felt as if something in the void was binding him, hindrances coming from all directions, invisible to the naked eye.
"Let's create a Particle World and see," Lin Fei thought, unable to decipher the puzzle. He decided to test by creating new Particle Worlds, using one of the world laws to create a hundred new ones. Instantly, his Particle Worlds increased to two thousand.
With this addition, Lin Fei's sensation of obstruction became clearer and more distinct. "Continue," he decided, proceeding to create more Particle Worlds. Two thousand one hundred, two thousand two hundred, two thousand three hundred, two thousand four hundred...
When Lin Fei exhausted the seven world laws and his Particle Worlds reached two thousand six hundred, he stopped. He could now clearly perceive what was constraining him: the void itself, or more precisely, space.
The void of the Divine Realm was binding the current Lin Fei. The massive increase in his Particle Worlds, coupled with his formidable physical strength, caused a rapid expansion of his power. Having undergone only the fifth thunder tribulation, he had already reached the limit attainable by a Martial God.
Lin Fei concluded that to advance further, he must break through the constraints of the void—shatter the void itself!
"Next tribulation will be about shattering the void," Lin Fei contemplated with growing anticipation. "Reaching the stage of shattering the void typically means striving to comprehend the Dao, eventually understanding and mastering a complete path. Relying solely on self-enlightenment and personal laws for this is extremely challenging.
However, if I continue to overcome thunder tribulations and plunder enough laws, I can form a complete Dao with these numerous laws, thereby achieving the status of a Martial Ancestor."
Lin Fei's eyes sparkled with determination. Although no Martial God undergoing thunder tribulation had ever reached the level of shattering the void, the lack of precedence didn't mean it was impossible.
Lin Fei had already proven with his own strength that if one's power is immense enough, it can lead to shattering the void. And shattering the void is simply a manifestation of reaching a certain level of overwhelming power.
For instance, if a cultivator only seizes one law in each tribulation, it's nearly impossible to reach the stage of shattering the void after nine tribulations. The reason is simply insufficient strength. If one's power is great enough, one can reach the stage of shattering the void, regardless of whether they are in the midst of tribulation or not.
"Boom."
Lin Fei's two thousand six hundred Particle Worlds erupted with force. A roaring sound emanated from within him, and the surrounding void instantly collapsed, only to quickly recover.
Behind Lin Fei, a giant black hole-like formation appeared, not an actual black hole, but a manifestation of his power reaching the critical point of shattering the void.
"If I combine this with the power of Saber World," Lin Fei pondered, his eyes lighting up. "Could I shatter the void right now?"
The true shattering of the void means a single strike capable of breaking open the void, crushing it, then entering and traveling through it, all the while withstanding the immense pressure of the void on the physical body.
"Let's try it." Lin Fei's thoughts moved with purpose.
"Saber World!" In an instant, he unleashed the Saber World. Simultaneously, all the Particle Worlds within his body, coupled with the strength of his physical form, erupted under the enhancement of the Saber World.
"Buzz."
At this moment, Lin Fei seemed to break through a critical point, stepping into a completely new realm. Before him, the fabric of reality, like a "mirror," shattered instantaneously. Then, everything in front of him changed.
Lin Fei saw numerous dark passageways, appearing right in front of him, seemingly accessible at any moment.
"Void passages!" he murmured softly. For those who become 'Void Transformation True Monarchs,' comprehending the secrets of the void is necessary to discover these void passages.
However, for those who shatter the void, understanding these secrets is not required. By directly breaking the void, they too can perceive these passageways.
The methods differ, but the destination is the same. Both achieve the same effect—spatial traversal.
"Indeed, the strength of my physical body has already reached the critical point for shattering the void," Lin Fei mused. "Now, just a little more power is needed to reach the stage of shattering the void. The enhancement from the Saber World has indeed enabled me to take this step."
"Shattering the void," he whispered, feeling a surge of excitement. He had indeed achieved it! Although it required the augmentation of the Saber World, the ability to do so still equated to shattering the void.
However, the concept of void passages intrigued Lin Fei. Taking a deep breath, he prepared himself.
"Whoosh."
With one step, Lin Fei entered one of the void passages, his figure vanishing into the void.
