Chapter 445: Chapter 445 Illusory Divine Tree

At this moment, it wasn’t just Cloud Summit Mountain, but the entire sky above Yandu was lit with flashing lightning, and a terrible pressure enveloped Yandu completely.

"Is this the apocalypse upon us?"

"Could a natural disaster be anything more than this? Why do I feel like the sky is about to collapse over Yandu?"

"We pray for the heavens to calm their anger and give us ordinary people a way to survive."

...

Countless people knelt on the ground due to fear and pressure, some even believing that someone had angered the gods and, thus, brought divine punishment to destroy the entire world.

Only those top experts knew that this was not some nonsense divine punishment sent by the gods, but someone undergoing a tribulation.

The Great Elder’s face was filled with an unprecedented gravity, his gaze fixed intently in the direction of Cloud Summit Mountain.

Although he didn’t know who had triggered this Heavenly Tribulation, he was sure of one thing: if it wasn’t Qin Chuan, then it was someone behind Qin Chuan, or it was Qin Chuan himself.

If it was none of these, then it could only be someone who had come to kill Qin Chuan.

No matter who was undergoing the tribulation, it didn’t change the fact that Qin Chuan had a very complicated background.

The Great Elder sighed deeply, murmuring to himself, "I hope Qin Chuan won’t hold a grudge against the Battle Domain because of this."

This was his greatest worry.

At the peak of Cloud Summit Mountain, the four Heavenly Tribulations that appeared in succession were all absorbing more thunder to strengthen themselves.

The terrifying pressure seemed as if it wanted to annihilate heaven and earth.

Qin Chuan paid no attention to the Heavenly Tribulation that could descend at any moment above him, sitting cross-legged on the ground and beginning to cultivate.

The Great Mysterious True Scripture revolved, streams of pure spiritual energy flowed towards him.

After the breakthrough in his Heart Realm, faced with the Heavenly Tribulation again, there was not a trace of fear in his heart; he didn’t consider whether his current state could withstand the remaining tribulations. All he wanted was to become even stronger.

Not far away, a Guardian of the Eight stared coldly at Qin Chuan, who was now in meditation, his eyes filled with icy killing intent.

The Guardian of the Eight murmured to himself, "If this boy does not die today, he will surely become the biggest threat to the Guardian Hall in the future!"

"Boom!"

The thunder rumbled in the sky as the seventh and eighth Heavenly Tribulations formed in succession, and now only the ninth Heavenly Tribulation continued to grow.

The Guardian of the Eight looked up at the rapidly forming Ninth Heavenly Tribulation with his eyes full of wariness.

Although the Ninth Heavenly Tribulation had not been completed yet, he could already feel a pressure capable of destroying everything.

He did not doubt that if the Ninth Heavenly Tribulation fell on him, he would be completely annihilated.

At this thought, he looked again at Qin Chuan, who was in cultivation. Could this youngster possibly withstand the remaining four tribulations?

When he realized he had actually begun to doubt whether Qin Chuan had a chance of surviving the remaining tribulations, he shook his head and laughed, "Forget the remaining four tribulations, even if he can withstand the sixth one, it would be a miracle of miracles."

"Boom!"

Just then, a thunderous roar filled the sky, and as he looked up, he saw that the Ninth Heavenly Tribulation was complete. Countless thunderbolts revolved around the four tribulations, as if welcoming their king to descend upon the world and obliterate everything.

The Guardian of the Eight spoke solemnly, "It’s all about to end now!"

He subconsciously looked towards Qin Chuan, only to see him still sitting cross-legged, apparently completely oblivious to the imminent danger.

"Hmph!"

The calmer Qin Chuan appeared to be, the more flustered the Guardian of the Eight felt as he ground his teeth and said, "Pretend! I want to see how much longer you can keep it up."

"Bang!"

Just then, the sixth Heavenly Tribulation suddenly descended from the sky, striking down towards Qin Chuan.

The Guardian of the Eight’s pupils constricted, "Here it comes!"

He thought that the four tribulations would descend together, but to his surprise, they came down one by one instead.

His gaze remained fixed on Qin Chuan, wanting to see what kind of method Qin Chuan would use.

"Bang!"

The next second, the sixth Heavenly Tribulation directly pierced through Qin Chuan’s body.

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

The Guardian of the Eight bellowed in disbelief, watching as the sixth Heavenly Tribulation pierced through Qin Chuan. Yet, from start to finish, Qin Chuan remained seated in a lotus position on the ground, maintaining this pose throughout.

What he couldn’t accept was that after bearing the brunt of the sixth Heavenly Tribulation, Qin Chuan hadn’t even flinched.

To those unaware, it would seem as if the sixth Heavenly Tribulation was nothing more than a beam of light shining on Qin Chuan; otherwise, how could he have shown no reaction?

After all, the previous fifth Heavenly Tribulation had nearly claimed Qin Chuan’s life!

Yet the sixth Heavenly Tribulation, mightier than the fifth, merely left some bloodstains on Qin Chuan’s physical body.

At this moment, Qin Chuan’s entire body was coursing with electric light.

To the Guardian of the Eight’s astonishment, at the sites of the bloodstains on Qin Chuan’s body, there were flickers of golden light.

"Boom boom boom!"

Thunder roared above the heavens, as if furious, bellowing in rage.

Countless lightning bolts once again merged into the seventh, eighth, and ninth Heavenly Tribulations, seemingly to bolster their strength.

At this time, Qin Chuan sat as steady as a bell, the breakthrough in his Heart Realm allowing him to face the Heavenly Tribulations with a heart as calm as still water.

As the Great Mysterious True Scripture circulated, the destructive remnants of the Heavenly Tribulation that had sought to obliterate him were actually being absorbed by his physical body.

The very flesh that should have been decimated was now, after the baptism of the sixth Heavenly Tribulation, becoming stronger.

Which is to say, the first five Heavenly Tribulations had been destroying his physical body, while the sixth was refining it.

At the same time, a rich surge of vitality burst forth from inside him, spreading towards his internal organs and throughout his limbs and bones.

Qin Chuan felt a cozy warmth all over him, and a tingling sensation began to manifest on the Heavenly Tribulation wounds on his physical body.

"Rumble!"

Suddenly, the seventh Heavenly Tribulation descended.

Just like the sixth, it poured into Qin Chuan from above, instantly burying him in the midst of the tribulation.

"Pfft!"

Qin Chuan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, yet he continued to maintain his seated lotus position, eyes tightly closed, as the Great Mysterious True Scripture ran wildly.

As expected of the seventh Heavenly Tribulation, its power far surpassed that of the sixth, leaving numerous scars on his flesh.

Yet just as before, the seventh Heavenly Tribulation was refining his physical body.

Although it lasted only a brief moment, that instant of tribulation baptism significantly strengthened Qin Chuan’s physical toughness.

Not far away, the Guardian of the Eight was already dumbfounded. He suddenly began to doubt, was this really a Heavenly Tribulation?

What is a Heavenly Tribulation?

Heaven bestows disasters to annihilate all!

Legend had it that only a Peak Stage Expert at the Pinnacle of the Emperor Realm could attract such a Heavenly Tribulation. What qualifications did Qin Chuan, a mere Peak Realm martial artist, possess?

"Rumble!"

Another colossal sound echoed as the eighth Heavenly Tribulation descended, piercing through Qin Chuan’s entire body like the previous tribulations had done.

Qin Chuan was charred all over, with numerous awe-striking bloodstains that flickered with faint, barely discernible golden light.

The Guardian of the Eight clenched his fists tightly. Only at this moment did he realize he had missed the best opportunity to kill Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan had already survived eight Heavenly Tribulations. If he passed the final one, his power would surely surge tremendously.

With this thought, the Guardian of the Eight hesitated not a bit and immediately crushed a Jade Token.

This was the method of communication with the Guardian Hall. Once the Jade Token was crushed, the Guardian Hall would dispatch a powerful expert for aid at once.

With a ferocious expression, the Guardian of the Eight said, "Even if you survive the ninth Heavenly Tribulation, you must die today!"

After enduring the eighth Heavenly Tribulation, Qin Chuan’s physical body was nearly completely devastated. Were it not for the life still present in him, no one would believe he was a living person.

The Guardian of the Eight couldn’t tell if his eyes were playing tricks on him, but he thought he saw an illusory Divine Tree hovering above Qin Chuan’s head.
