72: Chapter 72 Tribulation

Ye Xiu concealed all his Qi.

Avoiding the Deity Obsession, he slowly walked toward the Nine Realms Tower.

The distance of a few hundred meters seemed incredibly far at this moment.

He approached cautiously.

Whenever the Deity Obsession wandered nearby, he would stop, acting like an ordinary rock, not daring to emit any Qi.

A short journey.

It took Ye Xiu nearly an hour to reach the front of the Nine Realms Tower.

Creak...

The ancient door slowly pushed open.

Before Ye Xiu could enter, an inexplicable chill instantly surged into his heart.

Gulp...

He swallowed involuntarily.

"Was I discovered?"

Ye Xiu's heart sank; he dared not look back and forcefully pushed the half-open door wide open.

His figure flashed.

He entered directly.

Bang...

The door closed.

Ye Xiu's hanging heart finally settled.

The hall began to shift.

The battlefield of the Guardian quickly formed.

Above the clouds, there was nothing but an endless ocean.

A figure carrying a long spear gradually condensed within the clouds; its terrifying aura made even Ye Xiu cast a sideways glance.

A Spear Cultivator!

Is it a Divine Body that specializes in [Dao of the Spear]?

He did not rush to act, his eyes bursting with intense Battle Intent.

Ever since he started Cultivating the [Heavenly Emperor Sutra].

This was his first time battling a Divine Body of the same Realm, which filled him with great anticipation.

Swish...

A spear light pierced through the clouds.

It struck directly at Ye Xiu.

"Well come."

Ye Xiu did not condense his blade light.

In his normal state, he met the spear light with a single punch.

Boom.

The sky shook.

The intense attack power forced Ye Xiu to retreat over a hundred meters.

Watching the Spear Cultivator attacking again.

He shook his head slightly.

"Indeed, one cannot underestimate these Divine Bodies. Even though I have Cultivated the Heavenly Emperor Sutra, in my normal state, it is difficult to suppress them when they unleash their rules."

He directly condensed a blade light in his hand.

The appearance of 2 million dragon power caused the clouds in this area to tremble slightly.

Seeing the spear light attacking again.

Ye Xiu couldn't be bothered with nonsense and slashed down with his blade.

Boom.

The spear light was instantly shattered, and the Guardian Spear Cultivator was blasted apart by the terrifying force along with it.

Turning into specks of fluorescent light.

Disappearing above the clouds.

Instant kill!

[Heaven-Breaking Martial Body] [Heavenly Emperor Sutra] [God-Slaying Style]

Under the augmentation of these three Peak states.

Ye Xiu's strength had already left ordinary Divine Bodies far behind.

His [Heaven-Breaking Martial Body] Bloodline was inherently more than twice as strong in physique as ordinary Divine Bodies.

Although the [Heavenly Emperor Sutra] had only been Cultivated to the first level, this Dao lineage's passive augmentation to physique was extremely terrifying; at the first level, it also reached an astonishingly more than double.

With the superposition of these two states.

Ye Xiu's normal state in the [Shengui Realm].

Reached a shocking 400,000 dragon power, more than four times stronger than the 100,000 dragon power of ordinary Divine Bodies.

Besides that,

his Martial Skill Moves were also far superior to others.

The five-fold augmentation of [God-Slaying Style] was not even Ye Xiu's strongest Move.

[Heavenly Emperor Fist] [Zhu Xian Style].

These two Dao techniques were his greatest confidence.

Even without using his trump cards.

[God-Slaying Style] was sufficient most of the time.

A five-fold augmentation of 400,000.

The power on the blade light directly reached a shocking 2 million dragon power.

Rules of the Dao that were not too strong would likely not be able to withstand the offensive of the [God-Slaying Style].

Just like the previous Spear Cultivator.

Even without using [Immunity to Ten Thousand Laws], he could rely on the absolute suppression of battle strength to forcibly slash through the rules.

That Spear Cultivator.

Did not lose unjustly!

The clouds were disappearing.

After the hazy mist passed.

Ye Xiu had returned to the Nine Realms Tower.

Without any extra nonsense.

He sat cross-legged on the prayer mat directly.

The Epiphany began!

In this mysterious and extremely clear state.

The originally difficult-to-understand [Heavenly Emperor Sutra] became clear one by one. Those ancient characters were no longer as complex and obscure as usual, but began to be parsed one by one following the state of Epiphany.

Spiritual Qi trembled slightly.

Following the operation of the [Heavenly Emperor Sutra], it quickly surged into Ye Xiu's body.

A faint rosy light enveloped Ye Xiu's whole body, and dull knocking sounds boomed endlessly within his Bloodline.

This state lasted for a whole day.

Until the Spiritual Qi in the hall was completely exhausted, Ye Xiu then stood up and began to welcome the second breakthrough battle.

Mountainous land, ocean surface, ancient battlefield...

Ye Xiu's speed in breaking through the stages was extremely fast.

The Guardian could hardly withstand a single blow.

Until the ninth stage.

This situation was finally broken.

The hazy figure, like an immortal, was unbelievably strong.

Its fists and feet carried an unspeakable power of rules. Although not as violent as Ye Xiu's, it was still able to trade blows back and forth with him.

"Satisfying."

Ye Xiu laughed heartily.

On the summit of this Divine Mountain, the blade light in his hand was extremely dazzling.

Every swing could make this sky tremble endlessly.

The Guardian was very strong.

Its fists and feet were attached with unknown rules.

Boom.

Blade and fist collided again.

The Divine Mountain cracked, and terrifying fissures appeared, showing signs of collapse following countless hard confrontations.

"Your fists are very hard, but my fists are not light either."

Watching it, tireless.

The Guardian attacking again.

Ye Xiu dissipated the blade light in his hand.

The second stage of [Arrogant Gaze] condensed in his fist.

He met the incoming fist and punched directly.

Boom.

Heaven and earth trembled.

Blood-colored light erupted.

The power that shook heaven and earth directly blasted the attacking Guardian into the mountain.

Crack...

The mountain was crumbling.

This ten-thousand-meter Divine Mountain began to explode directly under Ye Xiu's second-stage outburst.

"Still not dead?"

Watching the figure rushing out from the crumbling mountain.

Ye Xiu was a bit surprised; this guy's rules, besides being able to strengthen attacks, also had terrifying defense. It took one hit of his second-stage [Arrogant Gaze] and was actually not beaten to death.

"Then can you withstand this Move?"

Blade light condensed in his hand.

The aura of [Immunity to Ten Thousand Laws] instantly covered the entire blade.

Die!

With a soft shout.

The blade light collided with the Guardian again.

This time, it was no longer evenly matched.

The aura of [Immunity to Ten Thousand Laws] directly broke through the Guardian's tyrannical rules.

The blade light fell.

With a boom, the Guardian was directly slashed open, turning into specks of fluorescent light.

"Invincibility is truly lonely."

Ye Xiu sighed, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

He began to continue comprehending the [Heavenly Emperor Sutra].

...

...

Outside the Nine Realms Tower.

The headless Deity Obsession was still wandering aimlessly without any pattern.

Ever since the last opening of the [River of Time].

It seemed to have an obsession with this place.

Who knows how long passed.

A clap of thunder shook heaven and earth.

Crack...

Heaven and earth trembled, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled; in just an instant, the summit of the Divine Mountain was completely shrouded in dark clouds.

A terrifying aura of world-destruction swept across the land.

The crackling sound of thunder grew louder and louder, and the terrifying electric strikes, like ten thousand Dragons galloping, left this land in ruins.

Crack...

Lightning flashed.

A thick lightning Dragon fell from the dark clouds and struck directly onto the Deity Obsession.

The explosion waves shattered the mountain.

The Deity Obsession, which was still walking unconsciously, suddenly stopped.

It seemed as if it had been struck stupid.

It stood dazed for a long time.

Boom.

A sense of destruction suddenly erupted from the Deity Obsession.

It crushed the Void Realm.

Straight into the clouds covering the sky.

"...Tribulation... Who... is Undergoing Tribulation..."

A hoarse voice rang out in heaven and earth.

The tribulation clouds were shattering.

In just a few seconds, these terrifying tribulation clouds had completely disappeared.

The bright sun illuminated the earth.

A beam of rosy light pierced through from the endless Void Realm,

and fell into the Nine Realms Tower.
