Chapter 449: Chapter 455: Furious Decapitation of the Heavenly Tribulation! (One more)
Struggling to hang on till the end?
All eyes around turned to the Thousand-Spirit Saintess as everyone exchanged glances.
Elder Qian nodded and said, “In the face of the nineteen-day tribulation, there is already a Heavenly and Earthly Order nested within it. Yang Zhen hasn’t reached enlightenment yet, so the suffering he will bear is beyond all of our imaginations!”
No one knew how much suffering Yang Zhen would endure for not attaining enlightenment while crossing this Heavenly Tribulation filled with the Order of Heaven and Earth. Those who did know were all dead, killed under the Order’s Tribulation!
What’s more, this Tribulation of Nineteen Days was only the hint of the Order’s rhythm, not the true Order of Heaven and Earth Tribulation.
All looked stunned at Yang Zhen. An elderly Tribulation Crossing Period practitioner about to reach enlightenment shook his head and sighed, “What a sin, what exactly has Yang Xiaozi done that even Heaven and Earth reject him?”
At the mention of Heaven and Earth rejecting him, the majority of people present shuddered, even the expression of the Thousand-Spirit Saintess changed repeatedly!
On top of Ink Pool Peak, perhaps only two people still had faith in Yang Zhen. Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er looked at each other, withdrawing the Sun and Moon Twin Shadow Swords, holding them in hand.
Even with their faith, the two dared not to be careless. On the other hand, the Scoundrel Cat showed an air of utter boredom, lounging lazily with closed eyes by Hua Youyue’s feet.
“It’s starting!”
Elder Qian became serious, staring at Yang Zhen in the sky, and spoke.
Even for Elder Qian, witnessing such a rare occurrence of crossing the tribulation, he took it very seriously, an unusual solemnity appearing on his face.
As Elder Qian’s voice fell, Yang Zhen slowly raised his head. In the shocked eyes of all the people, he beckoned with his hand, and the Great Missing Sword burst out from the cave with a bang and landed in Yang Zhen’s hand.
In an instance, immense upheaval surged around Yang Zhen, black air spiraled around the Great Missing Sword in his hand, and in the gust under his sleeves, Yang Zhen entered a peculiar state.
With a swoosh, Scoundrel Cat jumped up, landed on Hua Youyue’s shoulder, and excitedly exclaimed, “Oh yo, just as this Lord expected, the kid is going to resist the Heavenly Tribulation head-on again!”
“Resist… resist the Heavenly Tribulation?” even Saint Lin was taken aback, asking with a weird expression on his face, “Is Yang Zhen going to fight against the Heavenly Tribulation?”
Scoundrel Cat let out a strange giggle, looked down on Saint Lin, and said, “Don’t be so surprised, kid. The surprises Yang Xiaozi has for you are yet to come. Do remember not to blink.”
Absurd!
Saint Lin suddenly felt ridiculous!
Even he, when facing against the common Heavenly Tribulation, wouldn’t dare to be careless. He would definitely respond cautiously, condense all of his True Essence within his body to protect it, withstand several Heavenly Tribulations, then cultivate the Heavenly and Earthly origin elements!
No one dared to resist the Heavenly Tribulation directly. Those who did hadn’t seen the sun for several turns of seasons.
Isn’t Heavenly Tribulation something everyone needs to withstand? Who dares to resist it directly?
Just as everyone was exchanging glances, Yang Zhen’s voice echoed through the air, “Eh, why did the Heavenly Tribulation change again? Mom, what kind of fancy nonsense is this? Where did the Heavenly Ghost go?”
After hearing this, everyone felt the irresistible urge to twitch their lips.
Of course it changed! You’ve already passed the Heavenly Ghost. Who knows what sin you committed again to cause the nineteen-day Tribulation? This kind of tribulation is even more terrifying than the Heavenly Ghost.
Thousand-Spirit Saintess gazed at Yang Zhen with a surprised look in her eyes and whispered, “Doesn’t he feel any fear at all?”
“Come on, come on, what are you fermenting for, this Sao Saint is so scared!” Yang Zhen let out his vivacious personality, enough to make everyone bite their tongues.
Seeing Yang Zhen provoking the Heavenly Tribulation like this, everyone understood vaguely why Yang Zhen, at his level, had to face such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation.
The Heavenly Tribulation that others would cautiously face, Yang Zhen looked at it with a provoking face, he was almost cursing at it. This… would be absurd if the Heavenly Tribulation didn’t get angry!
Boom!
The wild Tribulation Cloud in mid-air suddenly exploded, and an overwhelming Heavenly Might swept across the sky, seemingly tangible, bearing down on Yang Zhen.
Everyone jumped in fright. Those who had never seen such terrifying heavenly and earthly pressure turned pale.
“I can’t bear to watch anymore,” one said. “If every tribulation is as terrible as Yang Zhen’s ninth heaven tribulation, I think I’d rather go back to farming.”
“I should never have come,” another moaned. “I’ve been scarred for life. If I can’t overcome this shadow, I’ll be trapped in a relentless cycle of inner demons.”
Inner demons…they’re just like a personal torment!
Listening to the escalating murmurs, Elder Qian chuckled bitterly, “Watching Yang Zhen’s tribulation is truly a terrifying experience. Those of you at a lower level of cultivation may want to look away.”
Many turned their heads in haste, heeding the elder’s advice: ignore it at your peril!
Just as they diverted their gaze, Yang Zhen’s scream echoed through the crowd. “Damn it! Not this again! You’re annoying, you know? Time is precious to the Sao Saint! Send them all at once so as to not waste time!”
As he spoke, an explosive surge of True Essence erupted from Yang Zhen’s body, propelling him towards the tribulation cloud.
Hearing Yang Zhen’s outburst, those who had turned away couldn’t resist looking back, their faces mirroring confusion and surprise.
“What…what is this madman going to do?” someone asked.
“What? He’s obviously going to rush into the tribulation cloud!” another answered.
A stunned silence fell over the crowd.
No one had ever seen such a brazen attempt to cross the tribulation!
Even Elder Qian and the Thousand-Spirit Saintess, members of the prestigious Shanggeng Ancient Clan, watched Yang Zhen in bewilderment.
“Has anyone ever entered the tribulation cloud before, Elder Qian?” the Thousand-Spirit Saintess inquired, her face marked with uncertainty.
After a moment of consideration, Elder Qian darkly replied, “Yes.”
This response sent shockwaves through the crowd.
“Someone has actually done it before?”
“Which high-ranking Martial Arts practitioner was so audacious as to charge into the tribulation cloud, like that Yang scoundrel?”
“And did this person survive, after going into the cloud?”
One after another the questions poured out, even from the usually reticent Thousand-Spirit Saintess. “Who…was it?”
Elder Qian chuckled ruefully. “Who else could it be, but the only person who has so far ventured into the tribulation cloud and come out alive?”
The Thousand-Spirit Saintess trembled, a spark of realization lighting her eyes. “Is…it him?” she asked hesitantly.
Elder Qian simply nodded. “Yes, it’s him. The man who defiantly cursed the heavens during the great worldwide cataclysm, and single-handedly slaughtered three hundred and sixty heavenly tribulations- a true madman.”
“Of course, it’s him,” the Thousand-Spirit Saintess acknowledged quietly, a complex look in her eyes.
The man who had cursed the heavens and single-handedly destroyed three hundred and sixty heavenly tribulations – a madman indeed!
Everyone was stunned at Elder Qian’s revelation, unable to believe someone so audacious had existed.
At that moment, a thunderous boom echoed, jolting everyone from their daze. Their hearts skipped a beat, and they instantly turned to look at Yang Zhen.
With a single stroke of his sword, Yang Zhen obliterated a thunder dragon. With a hearty laugh, he leaped and shot into the tribulation cloud with a wild abandon.
A defiant slash at the heavenly tribulation!
Just like the man of legend, Yang Zhen too showed untamed audacity.
His audacity both terrified and thrilled the onlookers, stirring a fervent excitement deep in their hearts that they could not suppress.
