Qin Chen was at the peak of the Bahuang realm, to begin with. Plus, he had accumulated for several years and had just used the Myriad Transformations Imperial Technique to devour and refine a Jiutian realm Sage source not long ago. As such, he was at a critical point and was only one step away from breaking through to the Jiutian realm.
Now, he had broken through during the battle with the Sage-level Demon King.
In an instant, Qin Chen’s aura skyrocketed.
An aura that far exceeded any might he had in the past burst out and instantly flooded the Taiyi Holy Land. It carried an extraordinary Sagely might.
Sagely might!
Heaven and Earth rumbled as if millions of thunders were cracking.
With the Desolate Divine Halberd in his hand, Qin Chen casually struck out. With a loud boom, the Sage-level Demon King was sent flying dozens of miles away like a cannonball. Only after crashing through many steep mountains did he finally stop. He opened his mouth and spat out a few mouthfuls of blood, then looked at Qin Chen, whose aura was rising, in shock, “You’ve broken through?”
The people from the Taiyi Holy Land were also dumbfounded. They had never expected the Elder King to break through at this time.
Moreover, it was a huge breakthrough.
To be honest, the people of the Taiyi Holy Land didn’t know much about the Elder King’s realm. He seemed to be a great Venerable, but they also suspected that he was in the Jiutian realm.
Now, seeing that he had released the Sagely might the instant he broke through, they immediately understood that the Elder King had been a great Venerable before and had now advanced to the Jiutian realm.
When Qin Chen advanced to the Jiutian realm, countless tribulation clouds gathered in the sky. The terrifying streaks of heavenly tribulation were like giant dragons, swimming about as if they would descend at any time.
“Crap! If I break through now, it’ll be a disaster for the entire Taiyi Holy Land if the heavenly tribulations come down upon this place,” Qin Chen knew how terrifying his heavenly tribulations were. Any one of them was enough to kill a King. Once they fell, it would be a disaster for the entire Taiyi Holy Land.
This kind of heavenly tribulation would be destructive even to a prosperous immortal Holy Land, let alone the declining Taiyi Holy Land.
The most important thing right now was not to kill the Sage-level Demon King but to leave as soon as possible.
Qin Chen threw out the Desolate Divine Halberd, which instantly pierced through the sky and pierced through the Sage-level Demon King who was struggling to stand up.
The Desolate Divine Halberd contained the chaotic Sage power that Qin Chen had just obtained. It pierced through the ground and exploded with a terrifying Sagely might, causing the Sage-level Demon King’s body to crack.
At the same time, it also drew in the Laws of Heaven and Earth within a thousand miles, forming layers of Sage path seals, severely injuring the Sage-level Demon King and sealing him in place.
Qin Chen didn’t have time to kill the Sage-level Demon King, so he could only seal it to prevent it from harming the Taiyi Holy Land for now.
Whoosh!
Following this, Qin Chen soared into the sky and brought the terrifying heavenly tribulations away with him.
His figure was extremely fast, like a stream of light. In the blink of an eye, he rushed to an altitude a hundred thousand miles away from the ground. He passed through the atmosphere and arrived in the outer realm.
The outer realm was full of stars that were moving slowly in the sky. There was also a vast star fragment belt with a radius of billions of miles. Pieces of star fragments as big as mountains were scattered all over the place. It was as if they were going to land on the Canglan Continent at any time.
Qin Chen brought the terrifying heavenly tribulation into the star fragment belt. Immediately, the terrifying tribulations descended and bombarded him.
Naturally, Qin Chen had prepared for this and went all out.
Without a doubt, his heavenly tribulation was extremely terrifying as he had the Chaotic Holy Body and cultivated the Chaotic Imperial Scripture. In an instant, thousands of lightning bolts as thick as mountains struck him from all directions, drowning him completely.
The star fragment belt, which was a hundred thousand miles in radius, was flooded by the heavenly tribulation, and countless star fragments exploded.
When Qin Chen was undergoing the heavenly tribulation, he would sometimes take the initiative to withstand the tribulations to temper and strengthen his body, allowing his Chaotic Holy Body to improve further.
At other times, he would take the initiative to attack, shattering the heavenly tribulations that could kill ordinary Venerables, turning them into tribulation light that filled the sky. Then, he would devour the light into his body and temper his body internally.
…
Although Qin Chen’s tribulation was a hundred thousand miles away from the ground, his heavenly tribulation was too terrifying. After all, it covered a radius of a hundred thousand miles, and as time passed, it continued to expand, attracting the attention of many experts in the Canglan Continent below. All of them were shocked.
“Why is there such bright lightning? It’s like… The heavenly tribulation!”
“The heavenly tribulation? Someone is undergoing the heavenly tribulation and is a peerless expert at that. It’s so far away from the ground, it seems that the other party is in the star fragment belt. Could it be that someone is undergoing the heavenly tribulation for Sages? That being said, isn’t the range of this Sagely heavenly tribulation too large? Since ancient times, most heavenly tribulations only cover a radius of ten thousand miles. This Sagely tribulation is more like the legendary Sage King heavenly tribulation recorded in ancient books!”
“Could it be that someone in the world has silently reached the Sage realm and is about to reach the Sage King realm?”
“Who is going through the tribulation?”
…
At this moment, countless experts were watching the shocking heavenly tribulation in the sky due to its magnificent scope. At first, they thought it was a heavenly tribulation where a Venerable was breaking through to the Jiutian realm, but the more they watched on, the more suspicious they became. It didn’t look like it at all. Rather, it was more like the legendary heavenly tribulation for Sage Kings.
With the recovery of Heaven and Earth, many of the ten thousand ancient races had already awakened. Just like in the pegasus race, some ancient Sages had awakened as well. Looking at the sky, they revealed a look of shock, “What a terrifying heavenly tribulation. Is someone about to break through to the Sage King realm?”
“Could it be that an ancient Sage from the ten thousand races has broken through to become a Sage King?”
Beyond the heavens, the star fragment belt.
Qin Chen’s heavenly tribulation lasted for a full day and night before it gradually dissipated.
At this time, he was covered in blood, and many parts of his body had been cut open, so deep that his bones could be seen.
However, after going through the baptism of the heavenly tribulation, his Chaotic Holy Body had truly become a Sage body and was not just the Chaotic Holy Body now.
Although the Chaotic Holy Body had the word “holy” in its name, it was only called that because it was too extraordinary.
As for the Sage body, one could only have a Sage body after one had transcended the mortal world and entered the Sage realm.
After the Chaotic Holy Body became a Sage body, it had thus completely transcended mortality. Qin Chen’s every action thus contained boundless Sagely might that was much more powerful than ordinary Sages.
Boom!
When the heavenly tribulation was coming to an end, Qin Chen’s body was covered in blood and his clothes were in tatters.
At this moment, a huge palm that was a thousand miles wide suddenly stretched out from a hundred thousand miles away. It was filled with an extremely strong Sage aura as it descended from the sky and grabbed at Qin Chen.
It wasn’t an ordinary Sage, but an advanced Sage who attacked Qin Chen.
Perhaps it was because the other party didn’t want to see another peerless Sage in the world, or perhaps it was because the ancient Sages of the ten thousand ancient races didn’t want the human race to have a Jiutian realm Sage, no matter what, the intentions were malicious.
Qin Chen opened his eyes and shot out two beams of light. Like two heavenly swords, they pierced through the thousand-mile hand. With the sounds of something being pieced through, two huge bloody holes appeared in the hand, and blood splattered all over the starry sky.
“Get lost!” He roared and raised his fist to punch at the huge hand. With a boom, the huge hand exploded, turning into blood, flesh, and white bones that filled the sky.
