BXBX NOVEL Chapter 342 - 221 Race: Fairy_2
The master of You Huang Ghost Country stood on the ground, drawing and refining nearly infinite Earth Element energy. If it were any other entity, it would be impossible to absorb the power of the underworld so recklessly. But with the blessing of Feng Qing’an’s Kun God, and her mastery of countless Divine Powers and profound methods, she was able to refine the energy with relative ease.
During the process of crossing the Heavenly Tribulation, Dong Xuan, who had been severely depleted, rapidly recovered. She soon reached the peak before her tribulation, but she didn’t linger for long. She immediately surged past her original limit, stepping into a whole new realm.
That vitality, which had been cultivated under the wash of the Endless Thunder Sea, also became strong, adding an unusual charm to Dong Xuan.
“It’s still not finished?”
This time, Dong Xuan did not respond, because a sense of oppressive power arrived, a force so overwhelmingly strong it made Feng Qing’an, who was residing in the human world, feel palpitations. Looking up into the sky through Dong Xuan’s perspective, he could hear the rumbling of thunder. The endless Thunder Sea didn’t descend directly this time, but brewed in the air instead.
But this didn’t make Feng Qing’an feel relieved or happy, as if it was a good thing that the Heavenly Tribulation was allowing Dong Xuan to prepare. Just a moment ago, without any warning, the Thunder Sea descended, swallowing her whole. If they were being given the chance to prepare now, it could only meant that what was to come would be even more dreadful.
As he anticipated, the vast Thunder Sea was still suspended in the sky, not descending as it did before. Inside it, myriad thunderbolts interwove, forming nine light cocoons. A peculiar life force was being cultivated inside, as if the Thunder Sea was breeding spirits.
“What is this?”
Witnessing the scene, Feng Qing’an was stunned. Just as he was being shocked by the tribulation, the first light cocoon broke, and a red phoenix, entwined with thunderbolts of the same color, came diving down from the Thunder Sea.
Clang, clang!
The crisp sound of a phoenix call rose, but this phoenix cry didn’t bring any sense of peace to this world. Instead, it radiated a sense of slaughter and devastation. This lightning, taking on the form of a spirit, possessed power far surpassing that of a monarch, and was much more terrifying than the Thunder Sea that had swallowed Dong Xuan earlier.
Boom
Without an excessive words, the ground beneath Dong Xuan rumbled. The ground that had just been ravaged by the Thunder Sea rippled like a wave, with layered rocks and soil gathered at Dong Xuan’s feet, pushing her towards the sky.
Clang
A nearly overlapping sound of sword cry resonated. Nine different sword lights cut through the sky. The king, whose armor was broken, was controlling Senro nine swords to fight the Immortal Spirit descending from the Thunder Sea.
“Is it so hard to become an immortal?”
Seeing Dong Xuan entangled with the red phoenix, her body which had only just recovered not long ago was repeatedly hit. Although she was quickly replenished by the earth’s energies, thanks to Kun God’s blessing, and was able to restore her strength rapidly, this in itself was an unimaginable hardship. Feng Qing’an couldn’t help but ask.
According to Dong Xuan, the realm she now set foot in was just the equivalent to the Dong Xuan stage in the Immortal Way, the same as a Human Immortal. She had just started on the Immortal Way, and there were even higher realms above. If Dong Xuan were to continue on this path, how many more hardships would she have to endure?
Or was the Heavenly Tribulation he had witnessed just the entry level, and he had not really seen the true horror of the Tribulation? Had the cultivation of the Immortal Way also invited such divine punishment?
Feng Qing’an didn’t know the answers. But he knew that all he could do now was silently watch from the sidelines. He had already provided all the support he could, and now he was powerless to help.
Clang
Along with a cry of a phoenix, the vibrant, seemingly immortal red phoenix was eliminated by Dong Xuan’s sword, almost divided into two.
Just as this phoenix was struggling hard, trying to reincarnate and fight Dong Xuan again, she reached out and forcefully extracted a warmly glowing red light source from the body of the bisected phoenix.
At the moment when the light source was taken out, the red phoenix, which was still struggling to fight Dong Xuan, collapsed like a heap of sand struck by waves. It turned into streaks of red arcs of light, converging onto the Inner Dan-like phoenix essence in Dong Xuan’s hand.
Seeing this scene, Feng Qing’an’s eyes widened, but Dong Xuan didn’t give him time to watch more. She immediately swallowed the red phoenix essence.
Dong Xuan, whose strength was already soaring past her previous limit, experienced a surge of power once again at that moment. This strength was seamlessly integrated into her body without resistance.
The injuries she had just received from the fierce fight with the red phoenix quickly healed with the aid of the Earth Element energy continuously rushing from her feet. By the time the second cocoon in the sky broke and another Immortal Spirit emerged, Dong Xuan had already healed considerably and was ready to fight again.
“White tiger?”
Feng Qing’an looked at the tiger-shaped Immortal Spirit with wings on its back somewhat uncertainly, while Dong Xuan was silent, wielding dual swords, controlling seven flying swords, and charging into battle.
As someone who has personally crossed the tribulation, she doesn’t have the time to investigate what the origins of the thunder spirit fighting her are. For her, slaughtering it and capturing the Heavenly Tribulation’s Fortune is the most important thing.
Watching Dong Xuan ferociously battling the Thunder Tribulation White Tiger, Feng Qing’an probably understood. The Underworld Heavenly Tribulation seems relentless, providing no opportunities, but in reality, it gives plenty of leeway. He spoke too soon just now.
As long as you endure past the initial Thunder Sea and make it to the last wave, even though it’s incredibly dangerous, it’s not a joint attack. It allows for a one-on-one battle, and after defeating the Tribulation’s Immortal Spirit, one can obtain the fortune birthed by the tribulation.
This is both a test and a blessing. As long as you’re strong enough, you can transform yourself in a very short period.
Under Feng Qing’an’s silent gaze, the third… the fifth… one by one, Immortal Spirits with only outlines already possessed a divine feeling, but they were all defeated by Dong Xuan in close combat, seizing fortunes similar to the Dragon Pearl and Phoenix Element.
Each time Dong Xuan defeated a Heavenly Tribulation’s Immortal Spirit, her aura would slightly increase. Feng Qing’an found it strangely unusual that there was no reaction from the Soul Contract, but he cast this small problem aside. For him, whether the Soul Contract sent feedback didn’t matter. He didn’t rely on the Soul Contract’s feedback to become stronger.
Boom
The final thunder exploded in the sky, and the ninth figure that emerged from the Thunder Cocoon was a human-like deity.
However, when this final Heavenly Tribulation Immortal Spirit fell from the sky, it merely threw a punch in mid-air, immediately sending Dong Xuan flying dozens of miles, leaving a trench of electricity on the ground.
Without waiting for Dong Xuan to stabilize, this human-shaped Immortal Spirit of Heavenly Tribulation quickly pursued and slapped down, the endless thunder in an instant engulfing Dong Xuan.
This was the strongest Immortal Spirit. Its power was even more formidable than the previous eight combined. Even though Dong Xuan’s power has improved successively, each time challenging her previous peak, she still struggled to resist.
This was a bloody battle. Feng Qing’an, who had the opportunity to watch it from Dong Xuan’s perspective, was shocked. He now understood why even having lost everything she had in her previous life, Dong Xuan still became the unrivaled ruler in the Underworld.
Crackling
Ultimately, accompanied by a dazzling streak of sword light, this Immortal Spirit was cleaved into pieces, transforming into strands of thunder and merging into a dazzling golden pearl.
“It’s over!”
The moment he saw Dong Xuan swallow the ninth Heavenly Tribulation’s Fortune, Feng Qing’an felt an awakening in his heart. The oppressive sensation that had been causing his heart to pound from another realm suddenly disappeared.
“Yes, it’s over!”
The ruler of You Huang Country, who had gone through numerous battles, responded in a soft tone.
The moment the tribulation cloud dissipated, Dong Xuan could only feel that the invisible barrier that had blocked her path was finally gone. Her aura, which had increased several times, once again surged, even reaching the realm she once held.
