"The heavens may test me, but they will never decide my fate."

Xiao Tian Awakens

In the depths of the Divine Awakening Space, Xiao Tian's golden eyes snapped open.

Before him, the massive golden statue of the Divine Realm's Will cracked apart, its once-overpowering presence now reduced to dust.

> [Ding! Host has overcome the Divine Awakening Trial!]

[You have absorbed the power of the Divine Essence. Your mortal limits no longer exist.]

Xiao Tian clenched his fists. Power surged through his very soul.

His body felt lighter, stronger, limitless.

A new golden energy radiated from his core—far beyond the strength of any mortal or immortal.

Then—

BOOOOOOM!

A massive pulse of divine energy erupted from his body, shattering the illusionary space around him.

And in the next instant—

Xiao Tian returned to the real world.

The Heavens' Rage and the Mysterious Old Man

As Xiao Tian's body reappeared on the battlefield, the heavens roared once more.

The third bolt of tribulation lightning, still frozen in place, suddenly twisted and transformed.

From a mere lightning bolt—

It became a celestial spear, infused with divine will, ready to erase his existence.

The disciples gasped in terror.

Feng Yu shouted, "Sect Master! The heavens are still trying to kill you!"

But Xiao Tian… only smiled.

He raised his hand—

And with a casual swipe, he erased the celestial spear with a flick of his fingers.

BOOOOOOOM!

The golden flames scattered into nothingness, as if the attack had never existed.

The sky fell silent.

The heavens themselves hesitated.

The disciples stared in shock.

Even the mysterious old man, the one who had intervened, let out a chuckle.

"Hah… I knew you were extraordinary, but to defy the heavens so effortlessly… Even I did not expect that."

Xiao Tian turned toward him, his gaze calm yet sharp.

"And who might you be?"

The old man smiled mysteriously.

"You may call me Tianxu, the Wandering Celestial."

"I have been watching you for a long time… and now, it is time for you to learn the truth about the heavens."

Xiao Tian's eyes narrowed.

The truth about the heavens?

The tribulation was over—

But now, an even greater mystery had begun.
