#568 - Overcoming the Tribulation

Jun Wuxie sent Qin Keqing back to the sect and then went to the Xuanyuan clan.

His late-night arrival alarmed all nine elders, who, knowing he must have important business, gathered in the hall.

After hearing his plan, the nine elders couldn't help but twitch their eyes.

This kid is truly insane!

But in this way, he himself will be forced to flee for a long time unless he can return to Great Zhou City.

But will the half-saints of those forces let him return to the city?

"Does Little Friend want us to help you withstand the half-saints who will attack after the tribulation?"

The Eighth Elder said this.

"I want to solve my own problems as much as possible. You can't possibly follow me all the time, can you?"

"Wuxie, what are your thoughts?"

The Great Elder looked solemn, this was definitely dancing on the tip of a knife, risking his life.

"Does your clan have a higher-grade invisibility talisman?"

The Great Elder shook his head and said, "It's probably unrealistic to use an invisibility talisman to hide from the half-saints of those forces after the tribulation. Half-saints at the Great Heavenly realm can see through invisibility talismans. If it's a half-saint at the Extreme Heavenly realm, they can see through it with just one glance. The highest-grade invisibility talisman in our clan is the one used at Ice Cloud Tower some time ago."

The Second Elder stroked his beard and said, "There is something that can protect you and allow you to retreat completely even in the face of Extreme Heavenly realm half-saints, but unfortunately, you can't get that thing, and neither can we."

"Second Brother, are you talking about Void Sand?"

"Void Sand?"

Jun Wuxie was stunned. Wasn't that the natural treasure he had seen in the trial grounds beneath the capital city?

"That's right, Void Sand, it's in the different space beneath this city, but unfortunately, we can't collect it. The Void Sand is at the edge of the world rift above that mountain peak. Great Heavenly realm half-saints would be torn apart, and the actions of Extreme Heavenly realm half-saints would be restricted there. That Void Sand has a spirit and will escape on its own. It flows within that world rift."

"In ancient times, our ancestors tried many times, but all ended in failure. Two Extreme Heavenly realm half-saint ancestors even nearly got sucked into the world rift. Since then, no one in our clan has tried to go there again."

Jun Wuxie said, "I've seen Void Sand and tried to climb the mountain. It's indeed terrifying there. My realm was low at the time, and I only reached a little past the halfway point. Further up, every step was extremely dangerous, and the Void power I endured increased exponentially."

"You've been there?"

The nine elders were shocked. One of them said, "Fortunately, you didn't try to be brave at the time. The Void strangulation power there is beyond your imagination. Perhaps when you reach the Great Heavenly realm in the future, you should be able to try it."

Jun Wuxie nodded and fell silent.

Void Sand, that's something to consider later. What needs to be considered now is solving the current problem.

The nine elders also fell silent, all showing thoughtful expressions.

After a while, the Great Elder seemed to have thought of something and looked at him, saying, "We have something in our clan that can allow you to遁入虚空 (escape into the void) and travel thousands of miles in an instant, but it's hard to say whether you can escape in front of a higher-realm half-saint with this thing…"

"Brother, are you talking about the Mirage Stone?"

"That thing contains Void power, but each time it's used, the Void power will decrease, and it can't be used for a long time!"

"I think, what's the point of Mirage Stone? We'll just take action to block those people and escort you back to the sect. Then no one will be able to do anything to you."

"I appreciate everyone's kindness, but it's very safe to hide in the sect, but that's not what I want. If I only seek protection when I encounter problems, how is that different from a flower in a greenhouse? I have the Military Saint and the Ancestral Master, but precisely because of this, I should try my best not to rely on their power. I think that Mirage Stone is good. I wonder if you can lend it to me? Oh, and an invisibility talisman too."

"There's no question of lending it, just take it and use it. Unfortunately, our clan only has one."

The Great Elder said this, and then gave the Ninth Elder a look, and the Ninth Elder got up and left.

Before long, the Ninth Elder returned with a gray-white stone and a yellowed ancient talisman in his hand.

This stone looked slightly rough. Just looking at the appearance, it couldn't be related to a natural treasure at all, but Jun Wuxie could feel the extremely strong Void power contained within.

The Ninth Elder placed the Mirage Stone and the invisibility talisman in his hand and said, "When using it, you only need to inject power to activate the Void power, which will give you the ability to travel through the void."

"Then I'll thank you."

Jun Wuxie played with the Mirage Stone, looked at it again and again, and then put it away.

"Little Friend, aren't you going to reconsider letting us cover you and return to the sect?"

The Eighth Elder's eyes showed a hint of worry.

"No need. In the days when I'm not in Great Zhou, please help me protect Ice Cloud Tower, so I can rest assured."

Jun Wuxie got up to say goodbye.

The nine elders' lips trembled a few times, but in the end, they didn't say anything more, sending him to the entrance of the valley and watching him disappear into the night.

"He wants to坑杀 (ambush and kill) the half-saints of those forces, but he has also cut off his own retreat. This is extremely dangerous. Are we really not going to do something to help him?"

The Eighth Elder was restless. He admired this young man too much. His talent was unparalleled in ancient and modern times. It would be a great pity if he fell in the Saint Realm.

"I will go to the sleeping place of the old ancestors later and let the old ancestors help him guard against Extreme Heavenly realm half-saints. If the Extreme Heavenly realm doesn't take action, then let him face it himself."

The Great Elder said this.

"The Extreme Heavenly realm shouldn't be involved, right? The Extreme Heavenly realm peak half-saints of various forces are all sleeping unless something unexpected happens. Those are all old antiques from many eras ago. They can only seal the years by self-sealing and hibernation to keep their physical functions at the moment of self-sealing. Although this great era has fully recovered and ushered in a prosperous age, they should not have woken up yet."

"Are you sure?" The Great Elder glanced at the speaking elder and said, "Our Xuanyuan clan has an old ancestor who has awakened from the seal. Could it be that other forces don't have any? The world is recovering, and this era is changing too fast. Those Extreme Heavenly realm half-saints, especially those who have not reached the peak of the Extreme Heavenly realm, don't they want to wake up when the world recovers and use the environment where the difficulty of breaking through the realm is greatly reduced to break through their own shackles and reach a higher level?"

"Brother is right. Regardless of whether the Extreme Heavenly realm will take action, we still have to be prepared. Wuxie has no chance of survival in front of Extreme Heavenly realm experts. That realm is too terrifying!"

Several elders agreed. They were all peak Middle Heavenly realm and Great Heavenly realm experts, but the gap between them and the Extreme Heavenly realm was huge.

The Extreme Heavenly realm is like a different extreme realm in the half-saint domain. Once one steps into the Extreme Heavenly realm, it is like crossing a gully, and it has an overwhelming advantage over half-saints below the Extreme Heavenly realm.

That kind of advantage is not only in terms of power, but also mainly comes from the suppression of the level. It is a very mysterious and indescribable thing.

"I hope he can successfully pass through the Saint Realm and break into the half-saint domain as soon as possible…"

……

Jun Wuxie left the Xuanyuan clan and began to look for a place to undergo the tribulation tomorrow.

In the end, he chose an area with only low mountains.

He wasn't too worried about Mu Yunxi undergoing the tribulation tomorrow.

Mu Yunxi herself was very strong, and her physical body was not weak now, and she had been preparing for so long.

Most importantly, Mu Yunxi had consumed Thunder Tribulation Fruit, and her body had a strong resistance to lightning.

By the time he returned to Sect King Mountain, it was almost dawn.

As the sun rose from the east, Mu Yunxi opened the door and walked out.

"Are you ready?"

Jun Wuxie was in the courtyard and asked. Mu Yunxi nodded.

At this time, the women walked out of their rooms one after another.

Jun Wuxie released his Primordial Avatar.

"Let's go!"

He gave the invisibility talisman to Mu Yunxi, and the avatar used the Golden Blood Qi Circle to envelop the invisible her inside.

Mu Yunxi began to slowly release the realm suppression as previously discussed.

Soon, above Sect King Mountain, the clouds surged, quickly gathering, becoming thicker and thicker, and the covered area became larger and larger.

Heavenly might permeated, and the entire sky seemed to be pressing down, making people suffocate.

The speed at which the thunderclouds gathered was too fast. From the beginning of covering Sect King Mountain, in a moment, the area within hundreds of miles around Sect King Mountain was covered in thunderclouds.

Rumble!

A roar that shook the eight wastes came from the heavy thunderclouds, with lightning flashing inside. A violent wind howled between heaven and earth, as if the end of the world was coming.

"Steady, don't continue releasing suppression."

Jun Wuxie secretly transmitted his voice to Mu Yunxi.

His avatar soared into the sky, flying in the air under hundreds of miles of heavy thunderclouds. The Golden Blood Qi Circle was dazzling, like a great sun crossing the sky.

This scene alarmed everyone in Great Zhou, and they all looked towards the area above Sect King Mountain.

"That is… tribulation clouds?"

The eyes of the powerful people lurking in the various forces in Great Zhou jumped violently, and their faces showed excitement.

"That is the Golden Blood Qi Circle!"

"Jun Wuxie is undergoing tribulation. I didn't expect that he would be undergoing the Saint Realm tribulation so soon!"

"Humph! The half-saints of our several forces have been waiting for a chance to kill him, and now that opportunity has finally come!"

Those powerful people flew into the high sky, watching from afar.

At this moment, they were not worried that they would be exposed because there were too many people in the sky. Anyone with some cultivation was looking into the distance in the high sky.

"Let's see if it's that Jun kid!"

They opened their eyesight to the extreme, and they saw that Jun Wuxie, wearing a moon-white robe, opened the Golden Blood Qi Circle and was heading towards a barren, low mountain range within the city.

They followed the crowd and went to that area as well.

Finally, they quietly watched at a place not too far from the border of the tribulation cloud coverage area.

"This person's thunder tribulation is really terrifying. The Saint Realm tribulation has condensed tribulation clouds covering hundreds of miles!"

"Look at him, his expression seems very solemn, he probably didn't expect to attract such a terrifying thunder tribulation!"

"Once the one named Jun overcomes the thunder tribulation, his strength will greatly increase, but none of this matters. The moment he steps into the Saint Realm, it will be his death!"

......

Boom!

Crack!

The tribulation clouds, which had gathered for half an hour without sending down any lightning punishment, suddenly condensed into huge lightning bolts at this moment, roaring like silver dragons, piercing down from the frantically churning clouds.

That kind of scene was like tearing the heavens and earth apart completely in an instant.

People saw that the chaotic energy was rolling there, submerging a large area, covering Jun Wuxie's body.

Silver lightning pierced down, bombarding the chaotic domain, causing the chaotic domain to be penetrated instantly.

However, people couldn't see the scene inside.

Dense lightning, overwhelmingly poured down, submerging the mountain range in a sea of thunder.

The area within a few hundred miles was a sea of thunder, and nothing could be seen.

People could only hear a painful roar from the center of the thunder sea from time to time.

Many people were extremely nervous.

"Lord Jun will definitely overcome the thunder tribulation!"

"Lord Jun will be fine!"

"Lord Jun, you must hold on!"

......

The warriors of Great Zhou were all on edge.

The lurking powerhouses had a sneer at the corners of their mouths.

Although that kid is strong, under such thunder punishment, he will be peeled even if he doesn't die.

The law of thunder tribulation is that the higher the talent, the more terrifying the thunder punishment received.

That Jun Wuxie is too strong in the same rank, that’s why he attracted such a large-scale tribulation thunder.

"It's a pity, what a good opportunity, if a strong person breaks into it at this moment, maybe they can directly kill him!"

"That can only be imagined, who dares to get close? Once you enter the tribulation area, you will be taken to overcome the tribulation immediately. At that time, it will be difficult to deal with the thunder tribulation, where can you have the strength to kill that Jun?"

......

The thunder tribulation came wave after wave.

By the fifth wave, the transformation thunder tribulation began to appear.

The thunder and lightning actually evolved into the shape of beasts, flashing with blazing silver thunder patterns, pouncing down from the tribulation cloud.

This kind of scene made people's hearts tremble and they were dumbfounded.

"It's actually the legendary transformation thunder punishment!"

The muscles on the faces of those lurking powerhouses twitched. Although they wished the heavenly tribulation would be more violent, so that the kid would be struck to death directly.

But seeing him attract the legendary thunder punishment, they were extremely jealous.

Painful roars came from the central area of the tribulation from time to time.

Although it was impossible to see what exactly happened inside, from this voice, people could imagine that Jun Wuxie must be resisting very hard, and he was probably already scarred, otherwise, it wouldn't have made him like this.

At this moment, a woman in black appeared.

She appeared in people's vision without any warning, and then rushed towards the tribulation area in the shocked eyes of everyone.

People saw that there was a bead in her hand, flashing with mysterious thunder patterns.

She entered the sea of thunder like this, and none of the lightning that poured down fell on her.

"That... seems to be the Soul Daughter of the Soul Hunting Hall?"

"She has a treasure in her hand, can that thing avoid lightning?!"

"What is she going to do, is she trying to take the opportunity to kill Jun Wuxie?"

"Hahaha! Jun Wuxie, who is undergoing the tribulation, is already weak. He has to deal with the thunder tribulation, and he is no longer at his peak state. This time, the Soul Daughter has a high chance of success!"

......

"Soul Daughter! How dare you sneak attack me while I am undergoing the tribulation! You are courting death!"

Jun Wuxie's angry and cold roar came from the center of the thunder sea.

Those lurking powerhouses couldn't help but laugh gloatingly when they heard this frightened and angry voice.
