161: Chapter 161 You Can't Come Back to Life After You Die?

Zhao Yi soon paid the price for his arrogance.

The stone mill had not changed in the slightest because of Zhao Yi and the Golden Dragon Immortal's resistance; it continued to rotate and close in.

"It's over."

From his original towering stature to the size of a mustard seed, Zhao Yi had now shrunk to the size of a speck of dust.

But even though he was as small as dust and about to be ground away by the stone mill, feeling the two rotating forces from above and below, Zhao Yi's face turned green. His great sumeru treasure hoe had long since been twisted and shattered by the rotational force.

"Damn it, I never expected to die like this."

"I'm actually being ground into tofu."

"System, can you still save me?"

The cold and aloof System only showed its attribute panel glittering in Zhao Yi's mind.

"Damn!"

Subsequently, Zhao Yi's Physical Body and his consciousness were annihilated together.

The Golden Dragon Immortal had also been twisted into a pretzel by the rotational force of the stone mill. At this moment, he held up a middle finger at Zhao Yi and cursed once more,

"F*** your mother!"

Unfortunately, Zhao Yi had already stepped into the Void Realm a step ahead of him.

"Ahhh!"

Seeing that the final moment had arrived, the Golden Dragon Immortal peeled off three dragon scales in succession,

"Reverse Fate Scale Transformation Technique: Die First, Live Later!"

The Golden Dragon Immortal instantly turned into points of light. A few breaths later, the points of light began to dim.

When the points of light were almost invisible, the stone mill abruptly disappeared, and the entire space returned to that grey, hazy state.

"Hiss~"

"It really hurts!"

The previously dimmed points of light brightened once again, reforming the Golden Dragon Immortal.

The resurrected Golden Dragon Immortal could no longer maintain his human form. Where the scales were missing from his dragon body, blood flowed freely; he looked truly miserable.

"F*** your mother!"

"Why hasn't this Hundred Deaths Tribulation Realm broken?"

"Damn it, are you not dead yet?"

Having lost one chance to save his life, the Golden Dragon Immortal's tone was naturally not good.

The Hundred Deaths Tribulation Realm requires one hundred deaths to break the tribulation. Unless Zhao Yi completely perished, he would definitely have to die one hundred times and revive one hundred times.

This death was a true demise. In the Human Immortal Realm, if one were protected by the heavenly dao law, resurrection would be commonplace.

But how could there be any heavenly dao law in the Hundred Deaths Tribulation Realm? One could only rely on the Cultivator's own cultivation to resurrect. Each time he resurrected, some of his Origin would be consumed.

To force a resurrection one hundred times, the Golden Dragon Immortal estimated that even with the immense Origin of his Dragon Clan, he would not be able to successfully overcome this Hundred Deaths Tribulation.

"Hmm?"

"Didn't I die?"

The reappearing Zhao Yi's mind was blank; he had absolutely no memory from the moment he was ground away by the stone mill until now.

"I know now."

His rebooted brain was sharp; Zhao Yi immediately thought of the System's special reward: Substance of Eternity.

"Holy crap, System!"

"I love you!"

"The quality of existing forever."

"Isn't this an immortal body? Why call it Substance of Eternity and make me worry for so long?"

At this moment, Zhao Yi stood with his hands in his pockets, looking at this grey, hazy space without a care in the world.

The Hundred Deaths Tribulation Realm?

Then let it be a hundred deaths. With the Substance of Eternity, what the hell was he afraid of?

"Hmm?"

Bang!

The suddenly appearing great sumeru treasure hoe blocked the dragon claw coming for a second sneak attack.

"You..."

The Golden Dragon Immortal's dragon eyes widened larger than lanterns.

"Wasn't your hoe ground away by the heaven and earth stone mill?"

"Ground your grandpa!"

"Sneak attacking me again."

"I'll show you sneak attacking."

Bang, bang, bang!

Zhao Yi didn't indulge the Golden Dragon Immortal either. He swung the great sumeru treasure hoe without any technique, just one word: 'smash'.

Items rewarded by the System inherently carried inexplicable power; there was nothing more ferocious on Zhao Yi than this.

"Ouch!"

"If you hit me again, I'll die."

The Golden Dragon Immortal cried out miserably. Having learned from the last time, he was as slippery as a loach and his movement was agile. Although Zhao Yi had the advantage of the great sumeru treasure hoe, he couldn't kill him for the time being.

"Hmph!"

"Consider yourself lucky."

Zhao Yi put away the great sumeru treasure hoe. In the grey, hazy space, endless three-colored clouds suddenly appeared.

Just like the heaven and earth stone mill, these three-colored clouds filled the entire sky the moment they appeared, leaving Zhao Yi and the Golden Dragon Immortal with nowhere to hide.

"Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation~"

The Golden Dragon Immortal hovered blankly in mid-air, the black ring above his head about to settle onto it.

"A Human Immortal, how could he possibly survive the Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation?"

"F*** your mother, isn't it just digging up some extra Spirit Stone?"

"Is it necessary to play this big?"

The Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation, with its red, yellow, and green colors, was as brilliant as a flower. The power of the Lightning Tribulation itself was only at the level of the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation, but the problem was how painful it was when it struck people.

In the Great Realm, there were Earth Immortals who committed suicide while undergoing the Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation because they couldn't endure the pain. If an Earth Immortal who had cultivated for tens of thousands of years would commit suicide because of it, one could imagine the extent of the pain.

Knowing that he would likely be unable to survive the Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation, the Golden Dragon Immortal glared viciously at Zhao Yi. If he killed the person undergoing the tribulation, would the Hundred Deaths Tribulation Realm break on its own?

Once this thought appeared, the Golden Dragon Immortal couldn't hold back. When the first bolt of the Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation struck down, he roared, completely ignoring the Lightning Tribulation in the sky, and charged at Zhao Yi, shaking his head and wagging his tail.

"Unknown Dragon Flame."

Zhao Yi: "?"

The Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation and the Unknown Dragon Flame descended simultaneously. The hastily cast Body Protection Technique was like paper; it was shattered with a single touch by the Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation.

Stimulated by the extreme pain, Zhao Yi was enraged.

"Damn it!"

"Forget about this tribulation, I want you to die first!"

Just like the Golden Dragon Immortal, he completely ignored the Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation, brandishing the great sumeru treasure hoe and chasing the Golden Dragon Immortal to attack him.

The man and the dragon disappeared and reappeared in the Void Realm from time to time. When the Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation descended, both of them would appear and scream in agony. Just like that, they successfully ended up both injured.

The Golden Dragon Immortal was limp in the Void Realm like a noodle. His dragon claw was gripping Zhao Yi's neck, while Zhao Yi was gasping for air. The blade of the great sumeru treasure hoe was pressed against the Golden Dragon Immortal's neck; a slight movement would result in his head being separated from his body.

"Come on!"

"Choke me to death?"

Zhao Yi clamored.

"Yeah, hoe me to death."

"My dragon head is already on the blade, go ahead and hoe."

Boom!

A bolt of lightning struck down, hitting the head of the great sumeru treasure hoe first, and then transmitting to the dragon and the man. Both sides trembled and wailed simultaneously. Now, only their mouths could move; if they had any strength left to move, they would definitely kill the other immediately.

That Three-Colored Lightning Tribulation was endless; as long as Zhao Yi didn't die, it wouldn't stop. Soon, Zhao Yi lost his breath.

But the three-colored Lightning Tribulation still refused to let Zhao Yi go; the Lightning Tribulation continued to strike down unhurriedly until Zhao Yi was struck into ashes.

"Hahaha!"

"I finally outlasted you."

The Golden Dragon Immortal laughed loudly, but he was also at the end of his rope. A moment later, the Lightning Tribulation in the sky slowly dissipated.

There were tears in the Golden Dragon Immortal's eyes; he had finally passed this Hundred Deaths Tribulation Realm.

"Sigh!"

"Why are you still lying there?"

"Can't you get up?"

"The third death tribulation will arrive soon."

"Sigh, I wonder how I'll die this time?"

Looking at Zhao Yi in front of him, the Golden Dragon Immortal looked as if he had seen a ghost.

"Didn't you die?"

He had seen with his own eyes that he was struck dead by the three-colored Lightning Tribulation.

"Yeah."

"I died."

"And now I'm alive again."

Zhao Yi squatted down and looked at the Golden Dragon Immortal, his face almost touching his.

"What?"

"Can't you revive after dying?"
