- Chapter 756: Proof of Transcendence, The Heavenly Tribulation Arrives
The sky looked like it had been sliced open by a huge gash, and through the crack, dazzlingly colorful hues shone ever more brilliantly. Yet that stunning radiance carried a lethal killing intent!
Billowing dark clouds rolled in, gathering above Mount Tushan as crimson lightning arcs flashed.
That was the Annihilation Lightning.
Qin Feng’s heart skipped a beat. The heavenly tribulation for proving one’s transcendence realm was truly extraordinary.
The Annihilation Lightning, as the culmination of the Heavenly Tribulation, usually only appeared at the very end. But now, it had manifested right from the start.
This could only mean one thing – the impending Heavenly Tribulation would be even more terrifying!
Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan sensed the chaotic flows in heaven and earth, and withdrew from their enlightened states.
The two looked up at the sky with grave expressions.
“Vixen, you’re about to brave the tribulation,” Cang Feilan murmured.
Gong Cang frowned deeply: “I was fortunate enough to witness Commander Fu’s transcendence, and back then the sky looked like an arid, cracked wasteland – shattered beyond repair. “
“Everyone retreated over a thousand zhang away, not daring to approach the danger zone even a step. They only dared to watch from a distance.”
“Even so, many of our weaker colleagues were still severely injured by the shockwaves.”
“But Commander Fu succeeded in the end, didn’t she?” Qin Feng swallowed hard.
“Though she succeeded, it was a matter of life and death. To reach the transcendence realm requires comprehending the Dao.”
“And to fully grasp those principles, one must undergo the baptism of the Tribulation of Dao. In other words, the stronger your comprehension of the Dao, the more terrifying the tribulation you’ll face.”
“Commander Fu’s understanding was tied to the quintessence of Vigor Qi, and the might of those principles shook heaven and earth, even easily tearing apart space itself.”
“After she survived the tribulation, there wasn’t an inch of uninjured skin on her body – she looked like a bloody corpse. She was unconscious for ten days before she finally woke up.”
‘It’s that dangerous.’ Qin Feng looked up at the sky, suddenly thinking of something. “Then isn’t it dangerous for us to stay here?”
Gong Cang didn’t respond, only nodding slightly.
Boom!
A crimson bolt of lightning struck down, seeming to dye heaven and earth blood-red for an instant.
Countless fox tribe members trembled, understanding that if such lightning hit Mount Tushan, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Of course, as the most destructive form of lightning, the Annihilation Lightning could never be ordinary.
From deep within Mount Tushan, Su Tianyue’s voice rang out: “All tribe members, leave Mount Tushan as far away as possible!”
Though the Fox Tribe members were hesitant and reluctant to leave, they also understood that staying served no purpose other than courting death.
After bowing in the direction of the mountain depths, the fox tribe swiftly retreated.
“It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. The tribulation of the transcendence realm is far beyond what ordinary people can imagine. Never mind the trial of Dao – even this crimson lightning could mean life or death for us.” Gong Cang said.
But when he turned to look, Qin Feng had already led his two wives, joining the fleeing fox tribe.
“Lord Gong, what are you standing around for? Hurry and run!”
Even though he was on good terms with Su Tianyue, it was up to her to overcome the hardship, and he couldn’t really help her. Qin Feng thought nonchalantly.
As their group reached the boundary of Mount Tushan and were about to leave, a voice rang out in Qin Feng’s mind: “Stay and assist me.”
“Huh?” Before Qin Feng could react, fox fire chains shot out from deep within Mount Tushan, tightly binding and dragging him back.
What the hell?!
Seeing this, Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan were aghast. They tried to retrieve Qin Feng, but in an instant, the path back to Mount Tushan vanished into thin air.
More accurately, not just the return path, but Mount Tushan itself disappeared from sight!
Dark clouds rolled, thunder roared.
The sky fissured and phantom light shone
The Heavenly Tribulation continued, Mount Tushan had not disappeared it had only been concealed by an illusion. This was Su Tianyue’s doing!
Liu Jianli unleashed her bone-forged sword and slashed, a line of Sword Qi swept forward, but it was like a punch hitting cotton.
Cang Feilan also executed the Dragon Clan’s Thunder Arts, but it was like a pebble dropping into the ocean, unable to damage the illusion before them.
Su Tianyue was at the second-grade peak realm – the methods she employed were no easy feat to dispel.
Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan exchanged a glance and their beautiful brows furrowed. It was only then they realized that Su Tianyue had Qin Feng accompany her here, perhaps intending this very moment!
The surrounding scenery flickered constantly before fading into a stream of light.
Like a kite with its string cut, Qin Feng was dragged back deep into Mount Tushan by the fox fire chains.
When the whistling wind in his ears finally stopped, he found himself at Mount Tushan’s peak, with the beautiful Su Tianyue floating beside him.
At this moment, she was emanating a radiant glow, her nine fox tails swaying slightly, and each tip flickering with fox fire of a different color.
Qin Feng had the illusion that the figure before him was not just Su Tianyue, but rather nine beauties with vastly differing personalities.
There was a mature lady, a gentle teacher, a sweet girl-next-door, even a dashing policewoman…
But when he blinked and looked again, the nine merged back into one.
Su Tianyue’s red lips parted slightly: “The fox tribe has an ancient secret method to divide one’s vital force into nine parts for separate cultivation, before finally reuniting to elevate one’s power.”
“Each divided self naturally has differences, merely amplifying certain aspects of my persona to the extreme. But in truth, it is still just me alone.”
So that’s how it is, I thought my degenerate soul had awakened, Qin Feng inwardly heaved a sigh of relief.
“Over the millennia, all my divided selves have now merged back into one. The last remaining part was the one who went with you to the Imperial City. Now, with unification complete, I can attempt to cross the transcendence realm threshold here and now.”
Boom!
Lightning dragons exploded in the sky, as if declaring that such a breakthrough would be no easy feat.
Qin Feng said: “Chief Su, being an auspicious fox, you naturally have heavenly blessings. I believe you will safely pass through this transcendence tribulation. So why did you drag me back here?”
Su Tianyue looked over and said calmly: “The power of the Tribulation of the Dao is tremendous. In order to face it, I have to use all my skills. But if I also have to divert my attention to defend against the power of the Annihilating Lightning, I have no confidence that I can succeed.”
“I know you have ways to weaken the Annihilation Lightning’s power, so I had my divided self bring you here.”
Qin Feng’s expression turned shocked: “When your divided self found me in the Imperial City, she clearly didn’t mention any of this!”
Su Tianyue looked up: “The more beautiful a woman is, the more skilled she is at deception – isn’t this a common saying among humans?”
Qin Feng wanted to curse, but now was not the time.
The sea of lightning was gathering, and the phantasmal radiance pouring from the sky’s crack grew increasingly dangerous.
Qin Feng said gravely: “If I don’t help you, what are the odds of you succeeding?”
“Life or death,” Su Tianyue did not hide the truth.
The Nine Heavens Fused as One technique, with nine being the ultimate number, inherently went against the heavenly way to some degree.
Coupled with the Dao principles’ tribulation, the difficulty was self-evident.
Hearing this, Qin Feng’s heart softened as he sighed: “And if I do help you?”
“A slim chance at survival.”
‘You’ve got to be kidding me!’ Qin Feng’s veins bulged on his forehead. “If you don’t have confidence, why rush into this transcendence tribulation? Isn’t that just courting death?”
Su Tianyue glanced over, her expression grave, “This realm is currently in a state of upheaval. With the convergence of the energies of the three realms, the opening of rifts to the Immortal and Netherworld realms, all of this foretells an impending great calamity.”
“If I do not quickly reach the transcendence realm, how can I shelter the Mount Tushan Fox Clan in the coming apocalypse?”
Hearing this, Qin Feng felt a surge of reverence. Though this vixen normally acted coquettish, she ultimately shouldered the entire fox tribe’s burden.
“Forget it, I can help weaken the Annihilation Lightning’s might, but you’ll have to brave the Dao principles’ tribulation yourself.”
“I’ll say this upfront – if things look bad, I will definitely flee first. “
“My two children were just born, I can’t have them grow up fatherless.”
Su Tianyue smiled: “Young Master Qin has shown me immense kindness that I can never repay. If I successfully pass this tribulation, the only way is to offer myself to you.”
“Dream on, I love my wives dearly,” Qin Feng laughed derisively, before his expression turned solemn.
The two looked up as a crimson lightning bolt tore through the heavens.
Here it comes!
“Chi Qi!” With a mental roar, his Chi Qi manifestation appeared.
Having devoured yin-yang energies several times, the current Chi Qi was of an unimaginably larger size compared to before.
It used the void as steps, climbing upwards as lightning wreathed its body, swelling against the winds!
A resounding roar shook heaven and earth.
The endless sea of roiling Annihilation Lightning bolts immediately stilled and its momentum receded.
However, within the clouds, a crimson light flashed as the annihilation lightning converged, and in a matter of moments, it merged into a fanged, clawed beast that bared its teeth at Chi Qi.
The two lightning beasts stared each other down from afar, the murderous atmosphere oppressive like a collapsing mountain.
With Chi Qi drawing the Annihilation Lightning’s power away, what remained as a threat to Su Tianyue was naturally minimal.
From the cracked heavens, phantasmal rays in dazzling hues shone ever brighter as the scenery shifted rapidly:
There were frozen snowfields stretching for thousands of miles.
There were raging, boundless domains of flames.
There were pitch-black mountain peaks where ferocious beasts lurked.
Even knowing these were illusions, under the principles of illusion they were indistinguishable from reality!
“Thank you,” Su Tianyue said softly, then with a swing of her nine tails, fox fires erupted in an instant, shattering the descending Annihilation Lightning bolts.
She ascended into the illusion realm – that was the true battlefield.
Qin Feng glanced over, then turned toward the beast formed from the converged Annihilation Lightning.
It was clearly more powerful than Chi Qi.
The two lightning beasts roared at each other before clashing head-on violently.
Like a sedan crashing into a semi-truck, the weaker and smaller Chi Qi staggered from the impact and its lightning arcs dimmed visibly!
Qin Feng grew anxious and was about to intervene when Senior Xuan Yi’s ethereal form appeared.
“Chi Qi is a manifestation that originated from the primordial Annihilation Lightning. However, your strength is too weak. It is cultivated in your Divine Sea, and its own strength is also subject to many limitations.”
“If it can successfully devour its opponent in this battle, it will not only benefit Chi Qi, but you as well.”
Boom!
Chi Qi and the lightning beast clashed again, the raging thunderbolts illuminating the entire realm.
However, the power difference was too great – from this simple exchange, Chi Qi was blasted away again, and its Annihilation Lightning-formed body cracked open.
But despite its grave injuries, Chi Qi did not retreat, instead leaped back into the air to face the lightning beast.
“Continuing like this will definitely lead to defeat,” Qin Feng’s expression was tense.
Xuan Yi said: “Lightning represents destruction, but also vitality – the Annihilation Lightning is no different.”
“When you initially reached the Third Realm, Chi Qi acknowledged you as its master, and Bai Su soon followed, for they share the same origins.”
“Chi Qi represents unparalleled destructive power, while Bai Su embodies endless regeneration.”
‘Summon it, and it can heal Chi Qi’s wounds.”
Qin Feng immediately did as instructed.
As verdant lightning flashed, the plump little Bai Su landed on Qin Feng’s shoulder. It nuzzled his cheek affectionately before being drawn to the massive commotion in the sky.
Seeing its playmate Chi Qi being bullied, Bai Su widened its beady eyes, waving its little arms and babbling urgently.
The sprout on its head glowed green as jade lightning shot into the clouds, merging with Chi Qi.
In no time at all, the latter’s injuries were fully healed!
Roar!
Chi Qi turned its head, showing a grateful expression, and nodded before instantly charging at the lightning beast again without hesitation.
The two grappled fiercely, causing space itself to tremble continuously.
“What is that?” Gong Cang outside Mount Tushan wondered in astonishment, having never seen Chi Qi before.
Because Qin Feng was left behind by Su Tianyue, Liu Jianli and others did not leave even though they knew there was danger here.
“That is something that follows my husband and it is capable of controlling the Annihilation Lightning’s might,” Liu Jianli answered softly.
Upon hearing this, Gong Cang’s eyes went wide with shock.
As one of the Twelve Divine Generals, he naturally knew many secrets, especially regarding the heavenly tribulations of transcendence.
It was no exaggeration to say that the lightning tribulation was an inevitable ordeal within the Heavenly Tribulation. Yet no one would wish for their lightning tribulation to be the Annihilation Lightning!
For that was akin to a life-or-death struggle.
When Commander Fu barely survived her tribulation, apart from the horrific trial of Dao principles, a major reason was the threat of the Annihilation Lightning.
However, how could Gong Cang have imagined that Qin Feng, who was only at the Third Stage of Literature Saint Of Dao Lineage, could actually control the Annihilating Lightning to such an extent?
Cang Feilan’s beautiful brows furrowed deeply. “That damned vixen must have brought my husband here from the start intending for him to help her face the Annihilation Lightning!”
Qin Feng glanced at Su Tianyue’s battlefield. She had already immersed herself in the illusion realm, constantly circulating her formidable inner energies to deal with the Dao principles’ tribulation.
Yet her pallid complexion, disheveled hair, and tattered clothes all revealed that at this moment, Su Tianyue was going through hell.
Of course, Qin Feng didn’t have too much attention to spare for Su Tianyue’s side, as even with Bai Su’s aid, Chi Qi was still being forced back step-by-step by the lightning beast’s onslaught.
At this moment, Qin Feng thought of something and asked aloud: “Senior Xuan Yi, since Chi Qi and my soul are connected, if I use my Unseen Vision Technique, could I show it the foreseen future moment?”
Xuan Yi pondered for a moment, having never considered this method before.
“It’s theoretically viable and worth trying.”
“Okay!”
Qin Feng didn’t hesitate further – whether it would work or not could only be known by testing it in real combat.
His consciousness entered the Divine Sea, activating the platinum Destiny Star. In the deep sky, starlight turned into lines and disappeared into Qin Feng’s eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, the surrounding scenery was covered in starlight.
Countless translucent scenes layered one over another – these were scenes of the future!
