Chapter 83: Heavenly Tribulation!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Looking at Si Kong, whose hair was disheveled and blood was flowing freely from the thunder tribulation, He Qingge had mixed feelings.
He was probably the person with the highest cultivation level he had ever seen who was about to die.
So far, no one knew how high Si Kongs cultivation was.
However, looking at the surging lightning in the sky and the attacks of the people blocking his way, He Qingge could understand that it surely exceeded his imagination.
The sudden increase in the power of the thunder tribulation had added a lot of gloom to He Qingge’s heart.
If someone specially found people who were not afraid of death and let them enter the thunder tribulation when others were undergoing the tribulation, the power of the thunder tribulation would increase greatly. No matter how talented this person was, he would probably not be able to resist.
Thinking of this, He Qingge’s heart turned cold.
There were so many smart people in the cultivation world. He Qingge did not believe that there was no such organization.
“You guys really deserve to die.” The sect master of the Tian Xuan Sect was furious.
Unfortunately, there was no other way for the time being. It was already quite tiring for him to stop the others. At the same time, he had to maintain the safety of the sect. He wanted to take revenge but was powerless.
Moreover, these enemies came from various sects. It was impossible to directly declare war on all these sects.
Yao Kongyue, who was deep in the demon region, spat out a mouthful of black blood in the secret chamber. Her entire body was trembling.
His face looked very pale, and his skin had lost its luster. His originally bewitching and handsome face now looked like he was suffering from kidney deficiency.
It was obviously an act that greatly damaged his vitality. However, if it was only a great loss of vitality and it could make someone in the same realm unable to pass the thunder tribulation, that was simply a huge profit.
The reason why Yao Kongyue was like this was because he possessed an extremely powerful innate ability.
Virtual Body Substitute Death!
He could condense a shadow of himself to die in his place and at the same time swap his body with the shadow. This innate ability could be said to be heaven-defying to the extreme, but the price was also very high.
First, there was the limitation of usage. After using it once, it could not be used again for many years.
Secondly, he had to condense a shadow of himself, which cost a lot.
However, it was worth it to use this to exchange for Si Kong’s life. In the future, the pressure of the war between the humans and the demons would be reduced.
He was extremely insecure about the future.
He was not used to no longer having the life-saving ability of using a virtual body to die.
The power of the thunder tribulation had increased by an order of magnitude. It was obvious that Si Kong could not resist it again. All the magic treasures on his body were destroyed, and all the talismans and magic tools were damaged as well.
In the end, he turned into ashes under the thunder tribulation and scattered across the entire Tian Xuan Sect.
A solemn and sorrowful atmosphere instantly filled the entire Middle Gate.
He Qingge was silent when he saw this scene. Did the death of a mighty figure mean that the Xuan Tian Sect was further weakened?
The others also left after seeing the results.
The sect master of the Xuan Tian Sect did not have the ability to chase after them, capture them, or kill them. He could only helplessly endure this anger.
“Master, are you alright?”
He Qingge asked as he watched the Peak Master return to the mountain with an ugly expression.
“I’m fine. It’s just a pity for martial Uncle Si Kong.” The Peak Master sighed.
He Qingge hurriedly asked, “Master, if the power of the heavenly tribulation can be increased by anyone who enters it, then could it be that there’s an organization that trains such death warriors since they’re young to prevent others from breaking through?”
“Not just anyone who barges in will increase its power. To increase its power, one has to be at least of the same level or even a level higher.
“If two people of the same level are in the same thunder tribulation, the level of the thunder tribulation will increase by an order of magnitude. No matter who the two people are, it’s almost impossible for them to come back alive—unless they’re heaven -defying geniuses.
“If someone of a higher level barged into the thunder tribulation, the energy level of the thunder tribulation would directly increase by two to three levels. No one will be able to come out alive unless their talent is heaven-defying or they have unimaginable life-saving methods.
“There’s indeed such an organization as you said. There’s not only one. Many sects and families will also secretly cultivate such death warriors. However, they won’t be stupid enough to send people of a higher level to prevent people of a lower level from transcending the tribulation, because that’s completely not worth it.
“A thunder tribulation that is only one level higher is not something that ordinary people can pass.
“Even if we were to deal with those peerless geniuses, sending two death servants to charge into the thunder tribulation is enough to maximize the power of the thunder tribulation. ”
“Is there any way to avoid it?” He Qingge asked urgently.
Peak Master said, “The easiest way is to find experts to protect you. Those death servants will then die before they can get close to you.
“If there are no experts far superior to those of the same level, the best method is to use a formation. If it’s a natural formation, it’s even better to block those people outside.
“The third method is also the most difficult. That is to kill everyone who has karma with you.
“Cause and effect are hard to predict. It’s one of the most mysterious laws in the world. You can unintentionally form karma with others, so you don’t know when an enemy will suddenly appear.
“Therefore, it’s unrealistic to get rid of all the karmic enemies, but the best way is to get rid of as many enemies as possible. At that time, it will reduce the trouble when you transcend the tribulation.
“However, you don’t need to be afraid for the time being. You don’t even need to be afraid for the next hundred or even thousand of years. The three tribulations of heaven, earth, and man aren’t something that anyone can overcome as they wish.
“Only when you break through to the Dharma Plane will you go through the three tribulations of heaven, earth, and man. You’re still far from this realm.” “What do the three tribulations of heaven, earth, and man represent?”
The Peak Master said, “Heavenly Tribulation Punishment, Earth Tribulation Reincarnation, Human Tribulation Karma.”
“Didn’t we also activate the sect protection array just now? Why didn’t it stop that person from entering the thunder tribulation?”
“The main purpose of activating the sect protection array is to protect the safety of the entire sect and you disciples. Secondly, it’s to use the power of the array to prevent others from taking the opportunity to attack the Uncle-Master who was undergoing the tribulation.
“But who would’ve thought that someone at this realm would actually risk his life to enter the thunder tribulation?
“If we had used the sect’s grand array to wrap Uncle-Master’s tribulation together, the scope of the thunder tribulation might directly cover our entire sect.”
He Qingge was silent for a while before saying, “If not for the obstruction of this group of people, what are the chances of that senior passing the thunder tribulation?”
“Less than 40%,” the Peak Master said after a long while.
“Why is it so low?” He Qingge was a little shocked.
With such a low probability, why should he transcend the tribulation? He might as well stay in this realm.
“Do you think that the Human Tribulation Karma is very difficult? The Heavenly Tribulation Punishment and the Earth Tribulation Reincarnation aren’t inferior to this.
“You saw the thunder tribulation, but it was only the first part of it. Even so, Uncle-Master could only barely resist it, and he even used all the magic treasures on him.
“The longer you hold on, the stronger the thunder of the heavenly tribulation will be. Even without the earth tribulation and the human tribulation, just the heavenly tribulation is quite difficult.”
He Qingge could not help but ask, “Then why did he still have to go through the tribulation? Isn’t it good to stay in his current realm?”
The Peak Master was helpless. “If he didn’t take the opportunity to gamble while his strength hadn’t declined too much, the chances of him succeeding in the future would be even lower. And he wouldn’t have much lifespan left.”
He Qingge fell silent after hearing this. He was still young, and these words did not make much sense to him.
However, if he could not break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, his remaining lifespan would not be able to compare to that senior even if he was still young..
