Chapter 227 - 227 226th Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation Third Update

227: 226th Chapter: Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation (Third Update) 227: 226th Chapter: Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation (Third Update) Half a year had passed.

Ye Xuan had traversed deep mountains and vast marshes, wandered through deserts and grasslands; he had left his footsteps all across the globe.

Atop the snowy mountain peak, he howled at the sky; on the boundless grassland, he roared towards the heavens; high above the vast sky, he drank alone, gazing at the waning crescent, feeling utterly desolate.

Immortal!

Such an enticing notion, yet who could know the choices Ye Xuan had faced, the immense suffering he had endured to reach that state?

Buddha said: Human life knows seven miseries—greed, wrath, ignorance, resentment, hatred, departures of loved ones, unfulfilled desires…

Buddha said: To live is to suffer.

But Buddha forgot to mention: The path to becoming an immortal is long, accompanied by fresh breezes, spanning years with no promise of reunion—this is the great sorrow and resentment in life!

Life blossoms like the radiant summer flower; death is as beautiful as the autumn leaf.

Ye Xuan asked himself, standing proudly at the pinnacle, eminent above all, that as he was about to become an immortal, looking back, he found himself without a companion.

A man, a path, having severed ties with the mundane world, concluded his past, accompanied only by the vast stars in the night sky.

Yet when all things withered and the stars fell, when heaven and earth would cease to exist, would he still be immortal between heaven and earth?

Ye Xuan did not seek a spectacular afterlife, only to be invincible in this life.

Whether it was against Primordial Spirits or all the heavens’ Immortals, no one could stop his ascent until he reached the Nine Heavens, overseeing all beings, truly mastering his own fate.

That was what Ye Xuan truly desired.

Duantian Mountain.

The highest mountain within Xia Country, also one of the renowned mountains in the world.

Duantian Mountain soared into the clouds, as if splitting the heavenly vault, hence its name.

However, today, Duantian Mountain greeted one person, one about to face the Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation.

The cold, piercing wind howled through heaven and earth.

As black clouds dissipated under Ye Xuan’s feet, he stood atop Duantian Mountain, gazing into the vast expanse of heaven and earth, his eyes opening and closing as if twisting the cosmos itself.

“Mr.

Ye, are you prepared?”

The Moon God, clad in a flowing white robe with a slender figure, greeted Ye Xuan with a bow, her eyes filled with immense hope.

The Moon God knew whether she could return to the Earth Immortal Realm would be decided today.

“I have waited for this day so very long, so long I could hardly sleep, filled with fear and uncertainty.”

Ye Xuan spoke softly, smiling as he continued, “But only upon the arrival of this day did I realize that the so-called fear and uncertainty have faded, leaving only tranquility and peace.”

The Moon God did not fully understand Ye Xuan’s words, but she knew that Ye Xuan must have reached a certain realm.

“You may leave now.”

Ye Xuan gazed at the heavenly vault, his aura slowly rising, clearly ready to summon the Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation.

“Mr.

Ye, I wish you success in crossing the tribulation.” The Moon God bowed deeply, took one last long look at Ye Xuan, then drifted away.

The sky was clear, the waters pristine.

Atop Duantian Mountain, Ye Xuan faced the cold heavenly winds, unyielding, his body glowing as if transforming into the sole entity between heaven and earth, radiating an unprecedented brilliance.

Just for this moment, the heavens seemed to collapse, thick, endless black clouds roiled, and immense lightning serpents, like tens of thousands of dragons, steamed within the clouds.

Spanning heaven and earth, stirring the ancient and the present!

Boom!

Crimson-black lightning, world-shattering thunder, with the Nine Heavens’ fierce winds howling through the boundless cosmos, and the Burning Heaven Immortal Fire slashing across the vault of heaven, incinerating the cosmos, yet perpetually healing.

If a mortal were here, they wouldn’t even wait for the Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation to descend.

Under such terrifying heavenly and earthly phenomena, they would already have turned into a wisp of flying ash, dying in vain between heaven and earth.

Boom, boom, boom!

The Nine Heavens gale was howling, the Burning Heaven Immortal Fire was burning, and the tens of thousands of crimson-black thunders rampaged through the clouds, a never-before-seen heavenly might gradually spreading throughout the world.

Bang, bang, bang!

The soul-shattering thunder resonated, causing the distant mountains to collapse one by one.

Under the howl of the Nine Heavens gale, they all turned into ash, vanishing between heaven and earth.

The heavenly vault grew increasingly dark, the earth collapsed for thousands of feet, and the Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation was continuously solidifying.

Merely appearing in this domain already caused a scene of apocalyptic destruction.

At the same time, everywhere around the globe.

Whether they were Blood Soul Strange Beasts or humans worldwide, their spirits were totally strained at this moment, their bodies trembling involuntarily, just because they saw the sky above their heads had already turned into endless red clouds, completely covering the blue sky.

“What…

what’s happening?”

“I…

I feel like I can’t breathe.”

As the world began, all creatures possessing spiritual wisdom were trembling in body and mind at this moment, with the mentally fragile collapsing to the ground, trembling under the oppressive might of heaven and earth.

Satellites of countries worldwide were fully activated, continually searching for the source of this abnormal celestial phenomenon.

Until the satellites of various countries detected a terrifying image, leaving leaders of those countries silently horrified.

In the satellite imagery.

A person stood atop Duantian Mountain, the myriad mountains turned to flying ash, the gale howled between heaven and earth, the heavenly fire burned through the heavenly vault, and the overwhelming crimson-black thunder ravaged the universe.

“Reporting to the chief, it’s the Divine King, Divine King Ye.”

At the Heavenly Eye Platform in Xia Country, a scientist zoomed in on the satellite imagery, revealing Ye Xuan’s visage, which left several top officials of Xia Country in horrified silence, speechless for dozens of breaths.

“Immortal Tribulation, Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation—Is Mr.

Ye about to cross the Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation?”

Azure Dragon cried out in horror, bringing several Xia Country officials back to their senses, as they asked tremblingly.

“What did you say?”

“What is the Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation?”

At this moment, Azure Dragon’s face was deathly pale, and his voice trembled as he murmured, “Mr.

Ye had once said, if he could cross the Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulation, he would become a legendary Immortal.

He…

He might be leaving this world!”

As Azure Dragon’s words fell, several top officials of Xia Country’s eyes narrowed sharply, and one of them forcefully slapped the table, immediately ordering the scientists, “Broadcast the satellite imagery live—since Mr.

Ye is about to become an Immortal and leave this world, let all the citizens of Xia Country pray for him, hoping that he successfully crosses the tribulation.”

“Yes, chief.”

The scientist hastened to switch the satellite footage to live broadcasts on television across the country.

And as all the citizens of Xia Country were startled by the abnormal celestial changes, the screens in major cities abruptly switched to the imagery of Ye Xuan about to undergo his tribulation, shocking the citizens into watching.

Not just in Xia Country, at this moment, this image was being broadcast around the world, and the whole world knew of Ye Xuan’s impending tribulation.

…

At the same time.

Duantian Mountain, Blood Sea Battlefield.

Primordial Spirit stood above the Blood Sea, gazing through the Blood Sea Battlefield in the direction of Duantian Mountain, his body radiating terrifying demon light, his voice cold and hoarse.

“Ye Xuan, it’s not only you who has been waiting for this day—I too have waited for ten thousand years.

I’m waiting for you to return as an Immortal; you better not disappoint me.”
