Chapter 277: Chapter 185: Double Cmity_1
“This thunder cloud…”
“The tribtion of the Nascent Soul oftenes in the form of the Twenty-Nine Heaven Tribtion!”
“If one’s talent is extraordinary, attracting the envy of the heavens, it may increase to forty-nine tribtions.”
“Heavenly Tribtion Steps, they are trials as well as creations of nature; what the ultimate oue will be depends on the cultivator’s actions!”
“It’s said that when the Sect Master condensed his Nascent Soul, he experienced the 49 Stars-Thunder Tribtion. The Power of the Starsbined with the Thunderbolt’s Might, thirty-six Thunder Bolts, each bearing the force of a star, descended. The Sect Master not only calmly bore them but also used the opportunity to refine his Big Dipper Star Body, transforming it and thus obtaining Heaven and Earth’s Creation, an achievement unparalleled in history!”
“I wonder what kind of Heavenly Tribtion this person will face?”
Within Tianshu Sect, Yunji, Jing Yue, and that Nascent Soul Old Demon from the Hundred Thousand Mountains, looking at the gathering Thunder Clouds above Green Jade Mountain, were each lost in different thoughts, filled with shock and uncertainty.
Heavenly Tribtions are numerous, based on the number nine, multiples of ninebined.
The least severe is the Nine Heaven Tribtion, and the most severe is the 99 Heaven Tribtions.
Ny-nine, eighty-one, even the life of a Mahayana True Immortal is in peril.
Apart from the number, there are types of Heavenly Tribtions: Yin and Yang, life and death, the Five Elements and Four Laws, as well as one’s own Heart Demons. The forces of Heaven and Earth’s Thunder and the power of the Great Waybine to form various types of tribtion thunders, even giving rise to Heart Demon Illusions, testing cultivators from all aspects to see if they are worthy of transcending the tribtion.
Besides, the Heavenly Tribtion will also adjust the number and power of the Thunder Tribtions ording to the state of the one who is to transcend them.
The higher the talent, the greater the potential, the more terrifying the thunder punishment will be.
It’s extremely harsh and perilous.
No wonder higher-level cultivators regard the Heavenly Tribtion like a deluge and fierce beast, even viewing it as the very first difficult hurdle in the path of cultivation.
However, there is also a creation of nature within the Heavenly Tribtion.
The more numerous and powerful the tribtions are, the greater they indicate your exceptional talent, possibly even earning the jealousy of the heavens.
If one has the means, like taking chestnuts from the fire, seizing the creation of the Heavenly Tribtion, then not only is it not a cmity but it could also be a great opportunity.
Since ancient times, there have been many proud and gifted individuals who have attempted this, ultimately defying the heavens and stepping onto the immortal path.
This also made Yunji and the other two quite conflicted.
They both hoped that the heavens would send down the 99 Tribtions to obliterate this person with thunder, and yet feared that the other party’s means reached the heavens and no matter what kind of Thunder Tribtion came, they could transcend it, perhaps even rising with the tide and achieving sudden enlightenment.
Torn, utterly torn.
But as bystanders, however conflicted they were, it would not affect the development of the situation.
“Rumble rumble!”
Above Green Jade Mountain, the clouds collided, and the thunder roared.
A Taoist man stepped through the void, entering the clouds directly.
At once, the winds howled and clouds shifted, twisting into a vortex.
Above the vortex, at the top of the firmament, the clouds stacked heavily.
In the center of the vortex, within the void, there stood one man alone.
Below, numerous cultivators lifted their heads to watch, tense in their observation.
“This is… the 49 Heaven Tribtions!”
In Xiao Miao’s mind, Elder Zhen’s words echoed: “The tribtion of the Nascent Soul is often twenty-nine in count. Those of exceptional talent may suffer the forty-nine tribtions. Although this person is out of the ordinary, he wouldn’t dare to be overly outrageous in the matter of Heavenly Tribtion.”
Hearing this, Xiao Miao also grew curious: “Heavenly Tribtion can be outrageous? What kind of outrageousness are we talking about?”
“Of course, it refers to fifty-nine, sixty-nine, and even up to seventy-nine and eighty-nine,” Elder Zhen replied with an amused smile. “In the history of the Northern Region Cultivation World, there have been a few such fools who didn’t know whether they were alive or dead, and a few madmen defied by Heaven and Earth, who at the state of Nascent Soul attracted the Sixty Nine Heavenly Tribtion, even the 99 Heaven Tribtions.”
“Oh?”
Xiao Miao raised his eyebrows: “And then?”
“And then?” Elder Zhen smiled indifferently, “Of course, they died.”
Xiao Miao:
“To face the 99 Heaven Tribtions at the Nascent Soul realm, who do you think you are, the child of Heaven’s destiny?”
Elder Zhen scoffed, then sighed: “There may be opportunities within the Heavenly Tribtion, but one must also weigh their capabilities.”
“Like that little bastard of Tianshu, he was very self-aware. He used the Big Dipper Tribtion Transforming Art in advance; he didn’t attract the Sixty Nine Heavenly Tribtion, only the forty-nine, thereby gaining Heaven and Earth’s Creation without the risk of perishing.”
“How shrewd, eh?”
Elder Zhen sighed and instructed: “Remember, a dead man is a dead man, no matter how high one’s talent or potential is, once dead, they are nothing but a piece of rotting meat!”
Xiao Miao:
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Amid their conversation, more than nine thunder strikes had already urred.
The 49 Heaven Tribtions, thirty-six in total.
The first nine, ordinary thunder, of mediocre strength.
The Taoist man stood in the void, calmly receiving them, the nine Heavenly Thunders entering his body as if it was a disappearing mud ox into the sea.
Mud ox entering the sea, without a trace to be found.
Heavenly Thunder entering the body, also without reaction.
“In the Martial Arts Scripture, there is the Thunder Commanding Power, the Body Training Skill with Heavenly Thunder.”
“In the Taoist Scriptures, there is the Thunderbolt jade Shu Scripture, the Duotian Divine Xiao Thunder Skill.”
“Whether martial arts or Taoism, both can harness the Thunderbolt’s Strength for oneself.”
“Thus, not only are the first nine Heavenly Thunders ineffective in causing harm, but even the subsequent twenty-seven thunders would hardly pose a substantial threat to the Spell King.”
After the nine Heavenly Thunders, the first tier of the tribtion had been passed.
The Taoist man stood unharmed, hands behind his back, suspended in the air.
Everyone discussed eagerly, with covetous looks in their eyes.
At this moment…
“Rumble rumble!”
The clouds collided, thunder shook, and within the endless dark curtain, a round of the Great Sun could be glimpsed.
The Great Sun’s red glow, intensely hot, turned into a stunning lightning dragon, transforming into a streak of red thunder.
“This is…!”
The crowd was shocked, feeling anxious yet not understanding why.
Only a rare few recognized the origin of this thunder.
“Great Fiery Heaven Thunder!”
“This person… could he be a fire-attributed spiritual body?”
“No, that’s not right, a fire-attributed spiritual body would draw out the Five Elements Fire Thunder!”
“Great Fiery Heaven Thunder, the utmost yang and forcefulness, only the Great Sun Immortal Body would incur such a cmitous challenge.”
“This person, could he be on par with the Sect Master’s Big Dipper Star Body, one of the three celestial nascent essences of the sun, moon, and stars: the Great Sun Immortal Body?”
“No no no, the world is unpredictable, Heavenly Tribtions are even more uncertain, those attracting the Great Fiery Heaven Thunder are not necessarily possessors of the Great Sun Immortal Body!”
