Chapter 564: Chapter 277: Saint Body Perfection, The Extraordinary Heavenly Tribulation!_2

[Host’s Root Bone increased by one hundred, Comprehension increased by one hundred.]

[Current Root Bone: 2002]

[Current Comprehension: 1951]

With the success of the sharing, he felt changes beginning within his body, as his muscles, meridians, and even his Qi Sea rapidly elevated.

In the Sea of Consciousness, the Tao Bell chimed, and his Divine Soul also quickly grew stronger!

However, the moment he saw the notification, Gu Changge muttered to himself that he had been hasty!

He had forgotten that this increase in Root Bone would break through the two thousand mark.

According to his experience and judgment, this number, two thousand, signified Saint Body Perfection!

And his current Root Bone value even faintly surpassed this level of Saint Body Perfection, critically approaching the threshold of the next realm!

This also meant that he would once again attract a Heavenly Tribulation!

Sure enough, as soon as he shared his Root Bone and Comprehension, he felt a familiar sensation, as if he were locked onto by the heavens and earth!

"How troublesome..."

"Well then, I will first go to cross a tribulation, you all continue to eat and drink well, just stay away from within a hundred miles."

Gu Changge rose reluctantly, cupped his hands as a gesture, and reminded the dignitaries present.

Crossing the tribulation here was definitely not possible, with too many people around.

And if he left, he was afraid these curious individuals would rashly follow him, mistakenly entering the range of the Heavenly Tribulation.

So he simply informed them outright that he was about to cross a tribulation.

Having said that, Gu Changge stepped forward and flew directly into the sky, heading towards an open area two to three hundred miles outside the Imperial City.

The guests at the banquet in the Imperial Palace’s plaza looked at each other in astonishment.

They all doubted whether they had heard correctly.

"Did Saint Gu just say he’s going to... cross a tribulation?"

"It seems that’s what he said..."

"But, the way Saint Gu looks so relaxed, I almost wonder if I heard it wrong," they mused.

Moments later, as they came back to themselves, they dumbfoundedly started asking their companions nearby.

Most gazes fell on where the Gu Family was seated.

But the people of the Gu Family were just as bewildered!

"Young Master is going to cross a tribulation again?"

"This... just by eating some Spirit Fruits, and having a few sips of Spiritual Wine, how could it lead to another tribulation?"

Some of the Gu Family Disciples still held Spirit Fruits in their hands, some were just about to propose a toast to the Young Master with their Spiritual Wine.

Why did the Young Master suddenly leave after saying he was going to cross a tribulation?

Even the Gu Family Elders were left speechless, not knowing what to say.

Eventually, they could only levitate and approach Wang Yue on the high platform: "We will go to check it out, to prevent anyone from disturbing the Young Master’s tribulation."

To this, Wang Yue also rose and declared, "I... Your Majesty will go as well."

Her Husband was about to cross a tribulation, and of course, she could not just sit and wait here.

At the Heavenly Cold Sect’s seats, Liu Qingqing did not waste any words and simply nodded slightly to Wang Yue before she swiftly levitated and followed the direction in which her Husband had left.

Seeing this, many of the great powers from the Northern Domain and even experts from the other three domains rose to their feet, suggesting, "Saint Gu’s tribulation is a major event, we should all go together, to help clear the area and prevent anyone from disturbing him."

Although that was what they said, the majority of them simply wanted to witness the Heavenly Tribulation.

In the Northern Domain, there were not many who had seen a Heavenly Tribulation.

Having the opportunity to witness a Heavenly Tribulation was even regarded as a great fortune for them.

"If that’s the case, then let’s go."

Wang Yue did not say much more, just nodded slightly.

Mounting the Palace exclusive to the Emperor of the Northern Domain, many great powers followed behind, heading towards the place two hundred miles outside the Imperial City.

However, knowing it was a Heavenly Tribulation, everyone also dared not get too close, at the very least maintaining a hundred miles’ distance from Saint Gu, lest they be locked onto by the Tribulation and harm themselves.

Whether Saint Gu could successfully transcend the tribulation, they couldn’t say, but if anyone present got targeted by the Tribulation, it would definitely mean certain death—no room for carelessness!

Three hundred miles outside the Imperial City, black Tribulation Clouds pressed down, suffocating the onlookers.

Even the slight leak of their aura caused the many great powers who had followed to feel stifled!

"So this is the Heavenly Tribulation..."

"Just the leftover aura and I feel an instinctual urge to flee this place."

"If even a little touches us, our lives are forfeit!"

"Just the Heavenly Tribulation attracted by Saint Gu alone is this terrifying; his own strength certainly can’t be much less."

"Some were questioning whether Saint Gu could withstand the Sages, but now it seems... that was totally needless worry. Even True Monarchs facing this horrifying Tribulation would probably not hold out, right?"

Among the observing great powers, some had seen the Sages act, but none of that came close to the pressure that this Heavenly Tribulation put on them!

Wang Yue and Liu Qingqing looked toward the Tribulation Clouds and slightly furrowed their brows.

"Husband, why does this Heavenly Tribulation feel different from mine before?" Wang Yue, dressed in an Emperor Robe, stood atop the Palace, whispering softly.

Noticing her reaction, Liu Qingqing lightly leaped to join her side, and the Shadow Guards nearby didn’t dare to stop her.

They understood that the reason this Empress could ascend to her position so smoothly was all thanks to Saint Gu!

And just like the Empress, the Heavenly Cold Sect’s Saintess Liu was also Saint Gu’s Daoist Couple. They wouldn’t dare to obstruct her.

"You noticed too?"

Liu Qingqing asked in a low voice, frowning.

"Mhm..."

"This Heavenly Tribulation seems unusual."

Hearing her say that, Wang Yue’s eyes narrowed slightly, but she nodded in agreement.

"However, Husband should be able to handle it easily, after all, he has successfully Refined both your and my Heavenly Tribulations without any trouble," she continued, although anxiety remained in her heart.

"Let’s hope so..." Liu Qingqing had a vague bad feeling inside, something was off with those Tribulation Clouds!

And compared to their perception, other Great Powers of the Northern Domain hadn’t experienced Tribulation; they couldn’t understand it.

They only felt that the Heavenly Tribulation was truly terrifying, inspiring fear in hearts, deterring anyone from coming close.

But at this moment, the one who felt the clearest response to the Heavenly Tribulation was naturally Gu Changge, standing alone in midair!

"This Tribulation Cloud seems unusually extraordinary," Gu Changge couldn’t help but be secretly amazed.

It had been a long time, and there was still no sign of Tribulation Lightning gathering.

Even the Tribulation Clouds were still surging, as if nurturing something?

Naturally, this commotion also drew the attention of the Gu Family Ancestor.

Inside the Imperial Mausoleum, three Sages of the Imperial Family from Wang Family, with wide eyes, exclaimed, "Your fellow here, is truly defying the heavens, to have brought about Heavenly Tribulation like this?"

"Ha, what’s so surprising about that? For my family’s kid, Tribulation is just like Cultivation, nothing to worry about," the Gu Family Ancestor smirked and sipped his tea.

Glancing around at the luxurious decorations of the Imperial Mausoleum, he couldn’t help but comment, "You lot from the Wang Family sure know how to enjoy life, making this mausoleum even more luxurious than the palaces above, and hiding so many treasures."

"Heh heh..."

"Brother Gu, you don’t see this every day."

"If there is anything Brother Gu fancies, feel free to take it for your use. The three of us old fellows won’t have many chances to use them."

The three Sages from the Wang Family could only respond with a flattering laugh.

Now with Gu Haitang having reached the True Monarch Realm, they didn’t dare to have any conflict with him.

Especially now that the Gu Family had produced a monster who, in a few years’ time, had broken through to the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, and maybe in another decade or so, another True Monarch would emerge, and a young one at that, aged only thirty!

How terrifying was that?

Better to avoid trouble and leverage their younger generation, Wang Yue, to get along well with the Gu Family, turning it into an opportunity!

"So..."

"Brother...This Heavenly Tribulation doesn’t look right!"

"Is this... really normal?"

Since Gu Haitang had seen that youngster Refine Heavenly Tribulations routinely, he wasn’t too concerned but instead focused on seriously choosing anything good from the mausoleum that could be taken back to Central State. Establishing a foothold in Central State for the Gu Family would definitely incur considerable expenses.

But the Sages from the Wang Family were almost constantly using their Divine Sense to probe the situation outside the Imperial City, three hundred miles away. Although Heavenly Tribulation could affect Divine Sense, the Tribulation Lightning had not yet fallen, and since Gu Changge wasn’t inside the Tribulation Clouds, they could see quite clearly.

"What’s abnormal about that?"

"You three didn’t, not pass through Tribulation."

Gu Haitang casually put several items into the Space Ring, speaking nonchalantly.

"No, no, no..."

"It’s precisely because we’ve passed through Tribulations that we find it abnormal!"

The three of them shook their heads repeatedly.

Hearing this, Gu Haitang also frowned and extended his Divine Sense to see what kind of Heavenly Tribulation this youngster had attracted, making these three old fellows cry out in alarm.

But upon this one look...

Gu Haitang was dumbfounded.

"Holy shit!"

"This is Heavenly Tribulation?"

The mighty Gu Family Ancestor, a Great Power of the Monarch Realm, after clearly seeing with his Divine Sense, couldn’t help but burst out with an expletive!
