55: Seven Caves of Heaven! Heavenly Punishment! The Nine Netherworlds!

“The calamities of the world are countless, but all originate from these Nine Calamities.”

“They are called Heavenly Calamity, Hell Calamity, Human Calamity, Wealth Calamity, Suffering Calamity, Love Calamity, Shura Calamity, Beast Calamity, and Demon Calamity.”

“……”

Deep within the Tai Xuan Holy Land’s Forbidden Ground.

Chu Ying had been cultivating the Nine Calamities Scripture for many days, losing track of time.

If he were to disregard the System cheat, Chu Ying was indeed a peerless Genius, but it had to be admitted that he was a common body, meaning he had no special Physique or Bloodline (Chu Ying was an orphan, his Bloodline unknown).

He also had no background; all cultivation resources had to be fought for by himself.

Therefore, his limit could at most reach Seven Cave Heavens, and this was under the most ideal circumstances, such as encountering great opportunities.

Although Chu Ying rose after obtaining the System, it did not change his ordinary Physique.

The Seventh Cave Heaven was difficult to open without an Opportunity.

“Cultivating calamity, defying creation, one shall suffer Heavenly Condemnation.”

This was the opening sentence of the Nine Calamities Scripture.

But did Chu Ying care?

Heavenly Condemnation?

Were there not enough people in this world causing trouble and committing grave sins? Did they suffer Heavenly Condemnation?

In his previous life on Blue Star, did the capitalists who profited from human suffering suffer Heavenly Condemnation?

“I’ve already opened an extra Cave Heaven, so why would I be afraid of your Heavenly Condemnation?”

Chu Ying sneered.

So, at a certain moment.

A nearly black Cave Heaven slowly condensed behind Chu Ying, standing out remarkably compared to the other six Cave Heavens.

This Cave Heaven was opened by seizing the negative creation of heaven and earth.

The so-called negative creation referred to the calamities of heaven and earth, all darkness and negative forces.

“Boom!”

Suddenly, a magnificent thunderous sound exploded from above.

Chu Ying opened his eyes, which were as deep as an abyss.

“So, all the various disasters in the human world are also deliberately caused by your operation. Is this the so-called ‘Heavenly Dao is not benevolent’?”

Chu Ying suddenly understood.

If he cultivated the Nine Calamities Scripture, he would know a secret of the Heavenly Dao, or rather, it wasn’t a secret, but an existing law.

However, ordinary people did not know it.

But since he knew it, he might disrupt the established order, and naturally, he would be targeted and condemned by the Heavenly Dao.

That is, Heavenly Condemnation!

“Come on, if you can strike me dead, you’re awesome!”

Chu Ying mocked.

Could the side effects of tribulation lightning striking his body be transferred?

But what side effects were there anyway?

Chu Ying pondered for a moment, and a tribulation lightning bolt as thick as an arm struck down.

Rumble!

Chu Ying was scorched black all over, but his Seven Cave Heavens shone even brighter, and the black Cave Heaven, opened by the power of calamity, became even deeper.

Within the first three Cave Heavens, the Azure Luan, Gluttonous, and Poor Strange Dharma Forms cried and roared, becoming even more resilient.

“Very good, very comfortable, come again?”

“I’ll just treat this as body tempering!”

Chu Ying found that the tribulation lightning could not be considered a side effect, and thus could not be transferred.

This didn’t matter.

Wouldn’t it be fine if I just underwent the tribulation myself?

As if sensing his provocation, the tribulation lightning forming within the Forbidden Ground continuously brewed, becoming increasingly terrifying.

Although this was the Tai Xuan Holy Land’s Forbidden Ground, it was not isolated from heaven and earth, and Lightning Tribulations could still appear.

“Boom!”

“Boom!” “Boom!”

One after another, tribulation lightning bolts struck down, and Chu Ying exclaimed, “This is so invigorating!”

But the tribulation lightning couldn’t kill him, because the tribulation lightning was considered a “Heavenly Calamity” in the Nine Calamities Scripture.

Since he cultivated the Nine Calamities Scripture, how could he be killed by a Heavenly Calamity?

Half an hour later.

Chu Ying’s first Lightning Tribulation in this life, the Heavenly Condemnation tribulation, dissipated!

He changed into a brand new robe, looking radiant and having an extraordinary temperament.

“Heavenly Dao, you old geezer, if you can’t strike me dead, just you wait!”

After cursing, Chu Ying examined his body.

The Seven Cave Heavens rotated on their own, with the black Cave Heaven opened by the power of calamity as the core, and the other six Cave Heavens revolving around it.

“Hmm? This is… a mark of Heavenly Condemnation?”

Chu Ying frowned, discovering that there were marks of Heavenly Condemnation within his body. According to the Nine Calamities Scripture’s explanation, this was a sign of being afflicted by “Heavenly Calamity.”

He had already become a Child of Heavenly Condemnation!

“It’s just a bit of hardship, that’s all.”

Chu Ying smiled faintly, not caring.

He had a cheat; as long as he was careful in the early stages, he would be incredibly strong in the mid to Late Stages!

“Refine the Nine Nether Hound’s Nether Bone!”

There were two theories about the leader of the Archaic Ten Fiends in legends.

One theory stated that the leader of the ten fiends was the True Dragon; another theory stated that the Nine Nether Hound, from a different world, killed the True Dragon and became the new leader of the ten fiends.

Regardless, the Nine Nether Hound was one of the Archaic Ten Fiends, incredibly terrifying.

Chu Ying’s mind was stirred, but he quickly calmed down, fully dedicating himself to refining the Nine Nether Hound bone to condense a Dharma Form.

He did not refine this bone into the Fourth Cave Heaven, but into the black Seventh Cave Heaven he had just opened.

“The Dharma Forms I condensed by refining the Azure Luan bone, Gluttonous bone, and Poor Strange bone were all at the extraordinary level.”

“Then, what level will the Dharma Form condensed by refining the bone of an Archaic Ten Fiends be?”

“Is it possible to surpass the extraordinary level?”

Chu Ying didn’t know.

The Archaic Ten Fiends were almost legendary existences, rarely seen in the current era, let alone finding their bones to condense Dharma Forms.

This was simply unimaginable.

This was also why Chu Ying was shocked that a Nine Nether Hound was suppressed beneath the ground of the Tai Xuan Holy Land’s Forbidden Ground.

The process of refining the bone to condense a Dharma Form was easier than Chu Ying had imagined.

The moment the refinement succeeded, Chu Ying’s mind was instantly filled with a large number of ancient and terrifying images.

A dim Hell, a flowing river of corpses, an ancient bridge bank…

“The Nether Bone of the Nine Nether Hound, could this race be from Hell? The Netherworld?”

Chu Ying didn’t know if this fantasy world had a so-called Hell, but he knew that his previous life on Blue Star had legends of Hell.

After people died, didn’t they go to Hell? Want to go to heaven? Impossible.

“Roar! Howl!”

Within the black Cave Heaven, a ferocious and brutal Nine Nether Hound successfully condensed.

It had a hideous wolf head, a vertical eye between its brows, scales, red long fur in the gaps, nine tails, and nine dragon heads on its tails.

“Nine Nether Hound Azure Luan Treasure Technique: Netherworld Transformation (devouring heaven and earth, refining all things in the myriad worlds, all things tending towards death!), countless times more potent than the Gluttonous Treasure Technique.”

“Hiss!”

“As expected of the leader of the Archaic Ten Fiends, terrifying indeed!”

“Could it really be related to the Nine Serenities Hell?”

While shocked, Chu Ying couldn’t help but be suspicious, though this was just his guess.

“System, didn’t you say the Nine Nether Hound bone also has side effects? What are they?”

Chu Ying was a little curious.

“The side effect is also ‘Netherworld Transformation,’ in short, it’s an Innate ferocious thought to turn all ‘living beings’ in the world into ‘dead spirits’.”

“Uh…”

Chu Ying was stunned, half-understanding.

“Wait!”

“Holy crap!”

Chu Ying suddenly looked up, and tribulation clouds gathered once again!

“Could it be… because of the Nine Nether Hound Dharma Form I condensed?”

Chu Ying was surprised to find that after he condensed the Nine Nether Hound Dharma Form, the Azure Luan, Gluttonous, and Poor Strange Dharma Forms were all prostrating and trembling!

The three extraordinary Dharma Forms were trembling?!

Chu Ying clicked his tongue in amazement.

“Could it be… my Nine Nether Hound Dharma Form has surpassed the extraordinary level?!” A terrifying thought arose in Chu Ying’s mind.

Boom!

The tribulation lightning struck down, and Chu Ying was about to endure it.

But he was horrified to find that his Nine Nether Hound Dharma Form directly rushed out and devoured the tribulation lightning!

And the Nine Nether Hound Dharma Form was completely unharmed!
