Chapter 479: Tribulation Transcendence To Sage, 3,000 Dao Tribulation
Upon witnessing how Shen Tian had killed three Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits swiftly, the Immortal Evil Spirit’s face darkened and turned cold.
He discovered that he seemed to have underestimated this human.
Such a young man could unleash battle prowess that was above the Sub-Immortal level.
He could be counted as a monstrous genius with such talent even in the outer realm.
The Immortal Evil Spirit did not believe that such a talented prodigy would appear in this mortal world, where even the laws of heaven and earth were incomplete.
A secret, he must have a secret!
...
The Immortal Evil Spirit focused his gaze on Shen Tian as his pupils turned red.
An illusory evil eye appeared behind him with a soul-stirring strength, wanting to see through all deception.
That was the supreme mystic technique of the Evil Spirit race, and he wanted to see what kind of secret Shen Tian had.
However, the Immortal Evil Spirit could not see anything except dense, chaotic fog.
The Immortal Evil Spirit frowned, clearly astounded. He was a Perfected Immortal and had even used the supreme mystic arts of the Evil Spirit race.
Even those cultivators of the same stage as him would find it difficult to hide their aura in front of him.
However, he was unable to see through a mere human.
The Immortal Evil Spirit murmured, “Just who is this person? Why is he so mysterious?”
A presence that even a Perfected Immortal could not see through definitely hid a huge secret.
Fortunately, the Immortal Evil Spirit still obtained some information.
Although he could not see through Shen Tian’s aura, he could sense immense Qi energy from Shen Tian.
That Qi energy was just too exuberant, as hot as a baking oven and his body was as strong as that of a dragon.
Most probably, this was the reason why Shen Tian’s battle strength was this powerful.
His physical body was like a primordial ferocious beast—he had the supreme divine constitution!
The evil aura surrounding the Immortal Evil Spirit surged as he revealed a hideous smile and said, “I never expected there to be such an astonishing prodigy with exceptional talent in this world.
“However, it’s a pity. If you had obediently hidden, then you might have been able to live for a few more days.
“But today will be the day you die!
“Evil Spirits, kill this person and sacrifice his soul for the supreme Lord Sacred Spirit!”
The Immortal Evil Spirit’s eyes turned cruel and tyrannical as he stared at Shen Tian mercilessly. His eyes were filled with greediness and bloodlust.
Shen Tian’s physical body was just so powerful that even the Immortal Evil Spirit, a Perfected Immortal, was tempted.
If he could steal Shen Tian’s body, then peerless Evil Spirits from the outer realm could descend upon the mortal world with their souls.
By then, it would be a piece of cake to destroy the native forces of the five regions.
He could even complete the Evil Spirit race’s great cause and dominate this world.
If so, he would be the greatest contributor to the Evil Spirit race and would be commended and rewarded by the supreme Lord Sacred Spirit.
Secondly, he could completely destroy North Sea’s hope and plunge all of them into the abyss of despair, dying under endless fear.
Only then could he appease his rage of the Sacred Spirit body being destroyed.
The Immortal Evil Spirit did not hesitate at all and sent 18 Sub-Immortals to kill Shen Tian.
...
“Yes, Lord Immortal Evil Spirit!”
Instantly, 18 Sub-Immortals stepped forward. They were those that had been stopped by Black Dragon Island and Kun race’s Mighty Sages.
They had not used their full strength as they wanted the cultivators of North Sea to be devoured by fear bit by bit.
Otherwise, with just the cultivation level of a Mighty Sage, how was it possible for them to stop by Sub-Immortals?
Now that the Immortal Evil Spirit had given the order, they naturally could not continue playing around.
The 18 Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits swiftly made their move as immense evil aura could be felt from them!
Boom!
In an instant, countless Black Dragons and Void Kuns were sent flying. They coughed out blood from being injured heavily.
% of the powerful cultivators from Black Dragon Island and the Great Void Kun race were knocked back in just a moment.
The 18 Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits stood in mid-air with a fearsome aura, just like evil fiends that had descended.
“Stop them!”
Ao Ye and Kun Xu were enraged. Their auras surged out from within them, and they charged toward those Evil Spirits with the remaining Mighty Sages, wanting to stop those Evil Spirits.
The Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits were so powerful they could destroy 90% of the forces in North Sea.
They were worried that Shen Tian might be in danger, so they tried their best to stop those Evil Spirits.
“Keke, just a couple of mere ants. Let me play with you.”
Then, another three Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits stepped forward and blocked Ao Ye and the others’ way.
Besides the four Evil Spirits that Shen Tian had killed and the two Evil Spirits held back by Chu Longhe, all the other Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits had made their move.
The situation in North Sea had instantly become extremely dangerous.
The three Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits joined hands and drew strange runes, forming a huge tripod made of evil aura in the sky, suppressing the ground.
The evil aura covered the whole sky and pressed down on them.
Cultivators such as Ao Ye, who were from North Sea, were instantly trapped by the evil aura tripod and could not escape in a short period.
“Shen Tian, watch out!”
Ao Ye and others burned with anxiety, but they could only attack the formation continuously so that they could come out as soon as possible to help Shen Tian.
...
Meanwhile, the 18 Sub-Immortals had already advanced forward. Their fearsome aura surged throughout, overwhelming even the sky.
Their immense aura shook even heaven and earth as they teleported through space.
The endless evil aura was filled with the power of evil and was extremely terrible.
These 18 Sub-Immortals could easily destroy sacred grounds, yet they were dispatched only to deal with Shen Tian.
It was like breaking a butterfly on a wheel.
The leader of the Evil Spirits revealed a hideous smile as he spoke. “Kid, it’s your honor that Lord Evil Immortal targets you.
“Just obediently stay still, and I can let you die a painless death.”
From his point of view, he was already giving Shen Tian face by dispatching so many Sub-Immortals!
Although the battle prowess Shen Tian displayed was astonishing, to the point he could swiftly kill three Sub-Immortals when fighting against 18 Sub-Immortals, the difference was definitely not just a little bit.
They did not believe that they would not be able to defeat Shen Tian with so many people!
If I can’t do it, then... I’ll drink all of the seawater in the whole Chaotic Star Island!
...
Shen Tian stayed calm and composed as he scoffed.
“You’re not worthy. Come if you’re not afraid of death!”
His Chaotic Star Sword soared into the sky, right into the clouds with a wave of his hand.
In that instant, the starlight burst out with a misty chaotic aura.
The sky was instantly thrown into disorder by the immense aura.
At the same time, the Divine Sun Cauldron appeared out of nowhere and shone with endless divine light.
The powerful Thearch aura overwhelmed the whole place as True Sun Fire erupted.
The 18 Sub-Immortals narrowed their eyes with evil light flashing in them.
Some revealed a hideous smile. “Amazing, you actually have so many treasures.”
Such a grade of supreme treasures tempted even Sub-Immortals.
However, they did not let down their guard. Instead, they joined hands and attacked Shen Tian together.
Shortly after, the 18 Sub-Immortals surrounded Shen Tian, completely trapping him.
The evil aura in the surroundings emitted fearsome power as if wanting to transform this area into a purgatory.
The Evil Spirits created evil fiends and vengeful ghosts that wailed and screamed miserably.
The 18 Sub-Immortals attacked with their full strength. It was a power that could shake both heaven and earth.
Such a scene was just too frightening. Even a Sub-Immortal cultivator would tremble in fear under such a situation.
Surprisingly, Shen Tian’s expression did not change. He was still indifferent.
However, his aura increased exponentially as his peak Soul Formation cultivation increased non-stop.
He was about to break through into the Tribulation Transcendence stage!
Endless laws poured down as the Heavenly Tribulation appeared.
The Heavenly Tribulation clouds gathered, and the sky instantly turned dark, emitting a terrifying aura.
Thunder roared, and lightning snakes danced. It was filled with the aura of destruction.
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked!
“Why is there a Heavenly Tribulation?”
“This is Sacred Leader Shen Tian’s Heavenly Tribulation?”
“He has yet to become a Sage?”
Everyone’s hearts fluttered as they were astounded.
From the battle prowess Shen Tian had displayed, he could easily slay Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits.
Therefore, everyone thought that Shen Tian’s cultivation level had already reached Sub-Immortal or at least Mighty Sage since no matter how exceptional Shen Tian’s talent was, he could only defeat enemies that were one or two stages above him.
Therefore, even though his cultivation level was lower than the Evil Spirits, he could defeat them.
However, this sight really shocked countless people.
They had never expected that Shen Tian actually was not a Sage yet.
Since Shen Tian could kill Sub-Immortals before even becoming a Sage, then how frightening would he be once he became a Sage?
Everyone stared straight at the figure in the air as astonishment filled their eyes.
As expected of Sacred Leader Shen Tian.
Even his Sage Heavenly Tribulation is so terrifying.
He’s destined to be the best!
...
The lightning flashed in the sky brightly.
Each lightning emitted a fearsome aura as if going to shatter the ground.
The 18 Sub-Immortals’ expressions darkened.
Although they knew that this was a Sage Heavenly Tribulation, the strength of this Heavenly Tribulation was so powerful it was frightening.
The Heavenly Tribulation cloud was filled with an aura of destruction where even Sub-Immortals would be frightened.
Just a simple lightning strike was able to kill a Great Sage and injure a Mighty Sage heavily.
That was because it was not a normal Heavenly Tribulation but the unprecedented and unparalleled 3,000 Dao Tribulation.
Such a Heavenly Tribulation was rarely seen, and once it appeared, it would definitely shock the world.
Those who faced such Heavenly Tribulations were all peerless paragons. It had been tens of thousands of years since such a Heavenly Tribulation had appeared.
According to ancient book records, the last time the 3,000 Dao Tribulation had appeared was during the Antiquity Age.
...
The Heavenly Tribulation clouds in the sky were as dark as ink, emitting a terrifying aura.
The frightening lightning struck at will, crushing the void into nothingness.
In contrast to the endless Heavenly Tribulation clouds, Shen Tian seemed heroic as his long hair flew with the wind, brimming with energy and vitality.
However, he did not choose to transcend the tribulation. Instead, he directly charged toward the 18 Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits.
The Heavenly Tribulation was especially effective against Evil Spirits, so he could borrow its power to fight against the 18 Sub-Immortals.
Those Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits were very close to him, so they were quickly pulled into the aggro range.
Rumble!
The deafening sound of thunder could be heard!
About 100 bolts of tribulation lightning struck in that instant, making even heaven and earth pale in comparison.
The 18 Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits were astounded. They hurriedly used defensive measures, unleashing an endless evil aura in front of them to protect them.
Boom!
A loud explosion resounded!
The evil aura was dispersed and lightning scattered in all directions.
No matter how powerful they were, it was difficult for them to endure the Heavenly Tribulation’s power.
Shortly after, the 18 Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits’ evil aura dispersed due to the endless Heavenly Tribulation, and they got injured in their core.
“Get out of here!” roared one of the Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits.
They would be at a great disadvantage if they fought with Shen Tian here.
Not only would they be weakened, but they would also have to endure the lightning strikes, which made them suffer.
“That kid is definitely unable to endure such a fearsome lightning tribulation.”
“We’ll retreat first and take advantage of him after he has been burnt into crisp by the Heavenly Tribulation.”
Another Sub-Immortal Evil Spirit spoke as they decided to temporarily avoid the Heavenly Tribulation.
The power of that Heavenly Tribulation was extremely formidable, and they did not believe that Shen Tian could last through it.
If he died under the Heavenly Tribulation, it could even save their effort and time.
The 18 Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits’ auras burst out as they joined hands and charged toward the same direction, wanting to retreat temporarily.
However, Shen Tian would not give them the chance to do so!
He waved his hand, and the starlight sparkled.
A humongous chessboard floated in the sky, shining upon the ground.
Endless laws surged to form a huge barrier that covered the whole area.
It was like an impenetrable fortress that prevented anyone from leaving.
“Kid, you’re looking for death!” roared the Evil Spirits.
They had never expected Shen Tian to seal the whole place.
If that was the case, then the power of lightning tribulation they would have to endure would be unprecedentedly fearsome.
“I want to see who will die first!” One of the 18 Sub-Immortals scoffed.
There were in the end 18 of them, and they were Sub-Immortals, so if they joined hands, they would be able to deal with the Heavenly Tribulation.
However, Shen Tian was alone, and not only did he need to deal with their attacks, but he still needed to be on guard against the Heavenly Tribulation.
The Evil Spirits did not believe that Shen Tian could survive.
Surprisingly, Shen Tian smiled and scoffed. “I’ll have a fun time with all of you today.”
He flew into the sky, and his whole body shone brightly with divine light.
The endless tribulation lightning struck Shen Tian but could not damage him at all. Instead, it was absorbed within him, and his aura became even stronger.
Shen Tian’s body turned crystal clear as it overflowed with lightning. It was as if the Lightning Emperor had descended.
“What!?”
The numerous Evil Spirits were dumbfounded. Such a terrifying lightning tribulation was unable to damage Shen Tian at all?
Instead, it even became the source of energy for him and increased his strength?
It was simply unimaginable!
...
Meanwhile, Shen Tian had already made his move.
Shen Tian held the Chaotic Star Sword in his hands upright, pointing toward the sky as he started to chant solemn and serious incantations.
“I summon Divine Lightning from the heavens!
“I shall use my sword to guide the magnificent powers of the heavens!”
The sky was instantly swept clean of clouds as the endless Heavenly Tribulation cloud turned into a vortex that vibrated vigorously.
The huge and deep black vortex swirled in the sky at rapid speed as lightning flashed and gusts of wind blew.
The endless tribulation lightning had been attracted by the sword like the Milky Way flowing backward.
Boom!
Hundreds of tribulation lightning bolts that were as thick as a water bucket struck down everywhere—the scene seemed just like the end of the world.
In that instant, the Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits were indescribably miserable as they were covered by endless tribulation lightning.
That power seemed to be able to shake the earth and smash all rivers and mountains!
Shortly after, the Sub-Immortals started coughing blood from being heavily injured.
Shen Tian’s expression was cold. He changed hand seals, and he shone with resplendent lightning.
The brilliant light attracted countless lightning.
His whole body was surrounded by the tribulation lightning as if he had resonated with the lightning and merged as one.
Shen Tian seemed to have become the god that controlled lightning, so he could control the peerless Heavenly Tribulation.
This was the forbidden technique of the Divine Firmament Lightning Imperial Sutra—Decalamity.
Shen Tian stood in mid-air with 10 lightning beasts roaring behind him, emitting an immense aura.
He waved his hand, and endless Divine Lightning struck countless holes even in the sky.
The whole area had turned into a lightning purgatory, splitting the sky into two.
Shen Tian appeared beside a Sub-Immortal Evil Spirit in the blink of an eye, and Chaotic Divine Lightning struck that Evil Spirit.
The Divine Lightning, which had turned into lightning dragons, charged toward its targets.
The Chaotic Divine Lightning entered that Sub-Immortal, and his physical body exploded. The Heavenly Tribulation lightning completely wiped out even his soul.
Shen Tian made a move again. He used the Kun Peng arts to enter the infinite void.
When he reappeared, it was behind another Evil Spirit.
Shen Tian clenched his fist and grabbed the lifeline of heaven and earth, exploding with vast and unpredictable power.
He used a 10,000-feet-thick staff and forcibly absorbed lightning, turning it into a lightning rod.
“Sky-Lifting Ocean Staff!”
Shen Tian waved the lightning rod in his hands, and its aura seemed to even overturn heaven and earth!
It was the supreme forbidden art of the Battle Imperial Sutra. Shen unleashed its true might!
Boom!
In that instant, another Evil Spirit was sent flying before his body was smashed into mincemeat, and the Chaotic Divine Lightning devoured his soul.
Shen Tian became fiercer the more he battled, sending chills down others’ spines.
In just a short moment, three Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits had died.
Such a scene made everyone dumbstruck.
...
Everyone could see that all the arts Shen Tian used were supreme techniques with boundless power.
The energy consumed to unleash supreme arts was immense, so normally, one would only be able to use them once or twice before wasting all of one’s divine powers.
However, Shen Tian could use them at will and bombarded the whole void battlefield into ruins.
Shen Tian looked indifferent as the divine power flowed within him endlessly.
His body had turned into a vast black hole that absorbed the infinite tribulation lightning as nourishment.
Shen Tian could totally use the power of the Heavenly Tribulation as his own with Decalamity.
No matter how much power was consumed, it could be replenished instantly.
The fearsome Heavenly Tribulation that everyone feared became Shen Tian’s strongest support.
Under the enhancement of the 3,000 Dao Tribulation, he was stronger and fiercer the more he fought, as if an invincible God of War that had descended to dominate the world.
After losing three members, the remaining Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits turned pale from fear.
“Join forces to set up the formation and stop him.”
They roared toward the sky. They did not dare to face Shen Tian head-on anymore and started to take a defensive stance.
The 15 Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits relied on each other, creating a peerless defensive formation together.
The gray barrier covered the whole sky and emitted a powerful aura, enveloping them completely.
Even the Heavenly Tribulation could only cause the barrier to vibrate but unable to break through it.
This was the defensive formation made by the strength of 15 Sub-Immortals and extremely sturdy.
Shen Tian narrowed his eyes, and instantly endless starlight burst out from within him.
The star energy soared non-stop, stirring up the clouds.
In that instant, the sky shone brightly as countless stars emitted light.
The brilliant starlight started falling like shooting stars with indomitable force.
Everyone could only see chess pieces shooting down and heavily colliding with the formation.
Puchi!
15 Sub-Immortal Evil Spirits instantly coughed out blood, but even so, the formation did not break.
On the contrary, the chess pieces were pulled in by the power of the array and unable to escape after being absorbed within.
...
In the wormhole, the Immortal Evil Spirit’s eyes lit up when he saw those chess pieces.
He shouted, “Those chess pieces are all supreme treasures above supreme-grade Immortal artifacts.
“Quickly steal and refine those chess pieces as our own. Then we’ll kill him!”
The Immortal Evil Spirit was astonished. He never expected Shen Tian to take out so many supreme treasures.
Each chess piece was extremely precious and powerful.
Even he was definitely unable to take out so many supreme treasures.
The Immortal Evil Spirit was overjoyed as he thought that Shen Tian was giving them treasures!
With the strength of 15 Sub-Immortals, it was simple to steal those supreme treasures from Shen Tian.
By then, they would be able to use the strength of those treasures to retaliate.
If those treasures were to be used by the 15 Sub-Immortals, the power would be unfathomable.
They would even be able to face Perfected Immortals.
...
The Immortal Evil Spirit grinned hideously.
I never expected that this kid would be this careless.
I don’t believe that I can’t kill him this time!
If this kid doesn’t die, then... I’ll eat all these chess pieces!
