The Great Ruler

Chapter 1391 - Heavenly Sovereign Tribulation

When the beam of Primal Chaos shot into Mu Chen’s forehead, his body suddenly trembled and the pores all over his body radiated a light that contained extremely robust Spiritual Energy. The moment it leaves his body, it would turn into rain that spread out in this area.

It was due to the Spiritual Energy in Mu Chen’s body having reached the limit, and he couldn’t contain anymore. Thus, his body had chosen self-protection and allowed the Spiritual Energy to leave his body.

But that was akin to a grain in the ocean from the massive power brought to him by the Plane’s Spirit.

Thus, cracks started to appear on Mu Chen’s body, and in just ten-odd breaths, the surface of his body was entirely covered with cracks, looking beyond horrifying.

However, Mu Chen had kept his composure, since he knew that his body had reached the limit...

“Since the limit has been reached... then shatter...

“Without destruction, there can be no creation. Forge, my Heavenly Sovereign Body.”

He murmured with resolution in his eyes. There wasn’t any hesitation that this danger might bring him. In the next moment, his hands joined together and he no longer suppressed the explosive Spiritual Energy in his body, allowing it to wreaked havoc.

Light burst out from the cracks on Mu Chen’s body and started to expand. A brief moment later, a massive explosion occurred.

Mu Chen’s body exploded, but there wasn’t any blood splattering. It had turned into dust, with every speck flickering with crystallised light that quietly hovered.

Suddenly, a storm gathered and pulled the specks of light over before combining them together.

As time passed, a silhouette was gradually formed, as if he was trying to reform his body.

But suddenly, an abnormal rumbling noise rang out that caused the silhouette that was undergoing reformation to fluctuate.

Although his body had shattered, Mu Chen’s Spirit still existed, and he had also sensed this fluctuation, which made his heart tremble, and he looked up.

The Primal Chaos started to fluctuate and torrential black clouds surged over with blacklights flickering in it. He had no idea what was being brewed within it, but it constantly absorbed Primal Chaos Energy and became increasingly mysterious.

Looking at the black clouds, fear rose within Mu Chen’s heart before a grave voice echoed out from his heart at the same time, “This is... the Heavenly Sovereign Tribulation?!”

In legends, one would face a tribulation known as the Heavenly Sovereign Tribulation when breaking through the Heavenly Barrier. This tribulation was so powerful that even Heavenly Sovereigns would be fearful of it.

“Now this is troublesome now.” Mu Chen sighed. The Heavenly Sovereign Tribulation seems to have absorbed the Primal Chaos Energy, and the power became more terrifying. It’s currently a crucial moment for him to reform his body. If it’s disturbed, then he might lose this opportunity, so nothing can happen right now.

While Mu Chen was focused, the black clouds surged in the sky and a black current descended from the heavens, shattering the space into fragments in its path.

Mu Chen squinted his eyes and his body that was reforming burst forth with a purplish-golden radiance before the Immortal Golden Body was summoned. When his hands joined together, 300 Divine Immortal Runes rose into the sky and turned into a wall above the sky.

The black water fell on the wall, causing the latter to tremble. Every single drop of black water was akin to a mountain. It’s like a myriad foot of mountains crashing down, displaying incredible power.

Cracks started to appear on the wall, but it was fortunate that the wall did not shatter. It had lasted till the blackwater dissipated.

“What a formidable Heavenly Sovereign Tribulation!” Mu Chen’s heart couldn’t help trembling. This was just the beginning, and yet, the defense that he had formed with 300 Divine Immortal Runes nearly crumbled. Then, how terrifying would it be in the end?

Mu Chen felt fearful in his heart and did not dare to be negligent. He immediately circulated his Immortal Golden Body and formed countless Divine Immortal Runes to supplement the wall...

The black clouds rolled once again, and in the next moment, the temperature between the heavens and earth suddenly soared as a comet descended.

The comet was black, and despite looking feeble, Mu Chen did not dare to underestimate it. The purplish-golden wall radiated with golden light...

As the comet descended, it struck against the wall. But surprisingly, there wasn’t any huge commotion produced. Mu Chen could see that the comet was akin to a corrosive poison that swiftly corroded the purplish-golden wall...

When Mu Chen saw this scene, he instantly controlled and threw the wall away. A brief moment later, the wall was corroded into molten lava by the comet.

Before Mu Chen could sigh at its might, the black clouds started to roll. But this time, a black meteorite descended from the sky with massive momentum.

Looking at the black meteorite, Mu Chen knew that he couldn’t allow it to continue brewing power. With a will, light radiated from the Immortal Golden Body and the Divine Immortal Runes formed into a golden spear.

The Immortal Golden Body brandished its hand and the spear shot out, slamming against the black meteorite and trembled before it was reduced to ashes.

But thereafter, spears continued to soar into the sky. Although they were destroyed every single time, they weren’t able to slow down the black meteorite.

Mu Chen circulated the Immortal Golden Body once again and Divine Immortal Runes soared into the sky, forming into massive nets.

The black meteorite descended, destroying the nets. But when all those nets were dissolved, the black meteorite was shrunken by half.

The Immortal Golden Body soared into the sky and radiated golden light on its fist, then jabbed towards the black meteorite.

An earth-shattering shock wave blew out and the black meteorite was destroyed. But at the same time, the Immortal Golden Body was blown away with cracks on its body.

When the black meteorite was destroyed, the black clouds in the sky remained silent. Mu Chen’s heart had tensed up. He knew that after brewing up for so long, the attack would be even more terrifying.

Black bolts of lightning suddenly tore open the horizon as they descended. Every single bolt contained destructive prowess and looked incredibly terrifying.

When Mu Chen saw his scene, his face changed and he let out a holler without any hesitation. The Immortal Golden Body radiated light and a large golden lotus appeared, protecting him.

Bolts of lightning continued to descend and crashed against the golden lotus. But every single bolt would cause the lotus to tremble and the petals would shatter.

This ferocious attack continued on, looking like an endless storm in the sky. Even if Mu Chen had resorted to his strongest defense, the lotus still looked like a small boat in a storm, looking to be on the verge of collapsing at any time.

The sounds of rumbling thunder continuously echoed across the sky. He had no idea how much time has passed while he focused on repairing the Immortal Lotus, but he still wasn’t able to maintain it for long. The Immortal Lotus still reached its limit and exploded...

When the lotus shattered, several black bolts descended upon the Immortal Golden Body, creating cracks on it.

But fortunately, the lightning had also been exhausted and Mu Chen managed to last through another tribulation.

When the lightning disappeared, even Mu Chen couldn’t help taking a cold breath. The Heavenly Sovereign Tribulation was too terrifying. No wonder there were so few Heavenly Sovereigns in the world, just the tribulation alone could stop many people from making any progress.

“Heavenly Sovereign Tribulations are four in general, so it should have ended now, right?” Mu Chen murmured in his heart. If a few more came at him, not to mention him, but even a genuine Heavenly Sovereign Realm wouldn’t be able to take it.

But when he finished, he could sense a commotion coming from the black cloud and he raised his head. He then saw that the black clouds were shrinking towards a direction. A few breaths later, they dissipated and was replaced with a black hole...

The black hole gently hovered in the sky before it descended in the direction of Mu Chen.

“Fuck! Why is there a fifth?!” When the black hole descended, it lifted waves in Mu Chen’s heart. He could sense a tremendous surge of energy that was contained within.

That power was practically more terrifying than the full force of the Blood Demon Monarch.

Mu Chen’s heart trembled. Although it’s rare for Heavenly Sovereign Tribulations to exceed four, he never expected that he would be that unfortunate one.

Furthermore, that black hole seems to have formed after absorbing too much Primal Chaos Energy.

“Now... this is really troublesome.”
