Chapter 1370: Chapter 1369: Taking Over Her Body

"What’s happening?"

"Whose tribulation is this!"

"This is not the Divine Emperor’s tribulation, this is the Dignity’s tribulation!"

"What? Someone is crossing the Dignity’s tribulation here in our presence?"

"No, that’s not right, everyone, look quickly, Karson Schwartz has flown into the sky!"

As everyone on the deck of the boat watched the pitch-black clouds in shock, Karson Schwartz leaped out from the window.

She had no time to analyze why the young boatman had helped her attain Dignity, and why he had suddenly left through the broken window, the pressing matter was to cross the Dignity’s tribulation.

The divine vessel had long left Eternal City, so now she could fly high into the sky.

"Can it be that Karson Schwartz, who only achieved Superior Divine Emperor status a few years ago, is already facing the Dignity’s tribulation?"

"Indeed, can it really be this extraordinary?"

"But... Karson Schwartz is formidable!"

"Sigh~" The Eight Princely Heirs of The Eight Great Families looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They were the most talented individuals in their respective clans, all at the level of Junior Divine Emperor at a very young age, but when compared to Karson Schwartz, they felt utterly worthless; there was no comparison!

She was already beginning to cross the Dignity’s tribulation, to ascend and become an ancestor!

To achieve Dignity status, what did that entail? It meant truly entering the very top echelons of the Heavenly Realm, joining another highest circle of power, controlling everything, even governing the myriad heavens.

To the dignitaries, this was no longer a mere deity but a supreme ruler of all heavens, at least in their eyes, the Dignity ruled everything.

"That’s not right, where is that young boatman?"

"Right, where did the young boatman go?"

"Go, go up and take a look." The Princely Heirs from The Eight Great Families commanded.

A few people immediately ran upstairs, entered the cabin to check.

Moments later, they rushed back down, strangely reporting: "The boatman is gone!"

"Gone?" Everyone was puzzled, so they turned their gaze back to Karson Schwartz.

Whether the young boatman was dead or alive, or where he had run off to, only Karson Schwartz knew.

"All right, everyone quiet down. Witnessing the crossing of the Dignity’s tribulation up close has immense benefits for us as well; we can gain insights from it, so try to do your best." Collins Goodman, one of The Eight Great Families’ Princely Heirs, spoke up. After he finished speaking, he sat on the deck, looking up at the distant Karson Schwartz.

The divine vessel dropped anchor, holding the ship in the turbulent river’s center, but still a great distance from Karson Schwartz, as it was common for others not to be close during someone’s tribulation, to avoid impacting the person undergoing the tribulation and also protecting themselves.

Meanwhile, Karson Schwartz began setting up one defense after another, and even when her body trembled, two layers of Rainbow Feather Robes appeared on her body, each shimmering brilliantly. In her hands, she held a Shield in one and a Divine Spear in the other.

The spear was a Spiritual Treasure; the shield was an Acquired Spirit Weapon.

This female was Heaven’s favored daughter, possessing innumerable Magic Treasures.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz~" The dark clouds began to compress, the thunder to gather, the lightning to roam.

"Crack" A sound echoed as the first bolt of lightning struck down. Plain and unadorned, yet it was majestic and sweeping. The instant the lightning emerged, a vast fissure tore open in the sky, the force so immense it caused the river to swell, generating giant waves and fierce winds.

"Boom~" The first bolt of lightning struck the Shield, Karson Schwartz’s body descended by two entire body-lengths, her complexion turning pale momentarily.

This was the supreme Dignity’s tribulation, terrifying and violent. It’s known that fights between Dignities could lead to Star Movement and the heavens and earth collapsing; therefore, the Dignity’s tribulation was extraordinarily powerful. Once crossed, one could wield Heavenly Power and Divine Power.

And the Dignity’s tribulation consisted of forty-nine strikes, each stronger and more ferocious than the previous.

In the Heavenly Realm, every year numerous people comprehend the Dignity realm, triggering tribulations, but eight or nine out of ten are struck dead by the tribulations themselves!

Heavenly Dao will not let you become a Dignity that easily, otherwise, wouldn’t Dignities be pervasive across the heavens?

"Boom～" Thunder and lightning continued to slash down, terrifyingly, leaving the Princely Heirs and the outstanding youths watching from afar with their scalps going numb!

They themselves admitted they could not withstand even a single tribulation strike.

"Go, Karson, you can do it!"

"What a terrifying tribulation. Will I have to cross such tribulations in the future?"

"Hehehe, whether you’ll even sense them in your lifetime is another story!"

"In this world, there are less than thirty thousand at the Dignity level, while Divine beings aren’t counted by Dao. On average, only one in more than five hundred million becomes a dignitary. So, how many of us here will ultimately achieve that status?"

"True that, wonder if Karson can make it through!"

"I feel like Karson was suddenly faced with a Dignity tribulation. Otherwise, how could she be so careless in choosing the location and have no one from the Clan come as a Protector? She didn’t even go into seclusion to prepare beforehand."

"Yeah, this tribulation is indeed mysterious!"

"Could it be related to that little boatman? He recited poetry with her, and then Karson had a sudden enlightenment about the Heavenly Dao?"

"That’s a possibility!"

"Let’s wait and see, hopefully, Karson will be safe and sound!"

While these people were discussing, Karson Schwartz had already crossed six or seven strikes, but cracks appeared on her Shield. Her long hair, previously coiled up, had now fallen, and her face was deathly pale.

After all, it was Yusuf Zuck’s Dew of Creation that had suddenly caused her to face the tribulation. She hadn’t attained any enlightenment and hadn’t made any preparations.

So it was very abrupt, despite having Magic Treasures by her side, she was still lacking.

As the eighth and ninth bolts of thunder struck down, when lightning reached the twelfth strike, her Shield shattered amidst the thunder, and she spat out a mouthful of blood, falling straight down!

Fortunately, midway through her fall, she gritted her teeth, faced the challenge anew, and with a flick of her Divine Spear, met the thirteenth bolt of thunder head-on!

The Spear, being a Spiritual Treasure and presumably an Acquired Spirit Weapon, was thus more powerful and mighty than a Dao weapon. But since it was also conductive, as the thirteenth bolt of lightning exploded, the defenses around Karson’s body including the Rainbow Feather Robe all crackled loudly, her face showing signs of withering!

Yet she continued to bite down hard, laboriously crossing the fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth strikes!

Until she had crossed the nineteenth strike, which was the halfway point, the twentieth bolt of thunder bathed her in blood. The outer layer of her two-layered Rainbow Feather Robe shattered, and her body was on the verge of collapsing, looking as though she could be struck dead by thunder at any moment!

However, at this moment, Yusuf Zuck, who had been lying dormant inside Karson’s body, sprang into action.

He had been waiting for this opportunity, for Karson to be at her weakest during the Dignity tribulation and greatly injured in spirit. He sprung into action to seize control of her.

He couldn’t afford to let her die either, for her death meant the loss of the five Heavenly Patching Stones. So as the twenty-first bolt of thunder struck, while Karson grunted and clashed with the thunder, Yusuf Zuck directly burrowed into Karson’s soul!

"What～Ah～" Karson was taken aback, noticing something penetrating her soul in an instant and screaming out trying to resist while simultaneously spitting out blood.

At this time, her spirit was already wounded, leaving her with little strength. Furthermore, with the twenty-second bolt of thunder striking down, she had to fend off the thunder and divide her Divine Skills to suppress the ray of light that penetrated her soul!

And because she was distracted, the twenty-second bolt of lightning struck her directly, shattering her second Rainbow Feather Robe and even revealing her flowery bra, shoulders, and hot pants.

Struck solidly by the bolt, both her body and spirit suffered further damage, and during this moment, Yusuf Zuck residing in her soul took advantage of this interval to swiftly seize control over her spirit!

"Whoosh～" Karson’s soul passed out, but her eyes suddenly shot open, bursting with intense light!

At this moment, although the body was still hers, the person had become Yusuf Zuck!

"Shut your dog eyes, or die!" Mimicking Karson’s voice, she coldly glanced over the dumbstruck noblemen, and then her body suddenly rose, and as her Divine Spear trembled, she confronted the twenty-third bolt of lightning!

"Crackle, crackle, crackle～"

However, this time her body was shrouded in electric light, crackling loudly, but her body and even her expression didn’t so much as flinch. All of the electric light, amidst the sparkling, was eventually absorbed by her forehead.

Since Yusuf Zuck had taken over, the lightning was ineffective against him; not even the successive, devastating tribulations could trouble him, let alone these ordinary tribulations. Not a single one of these Dignity tribulations could harm him in the slightest!
