Chapter 816: Chapter 816: Nine Heavens Thunderfire, Failed Calculation, Spiritual Transformation
For Hu Feifei, Ye Feng was not worried at all.
She was undying.
Even if the Saint Ascension Tribulation’s power increased a hundredfold, she could not be killed; instead, she would absorb the energy and enhance herself.
However, for others, the Heart of Thunder that had been tampered with was indeed fatal.
A tenfold increase in the power of the Saint Ascension Tribulation—who could withstand it, other than the monstrously talented prodigies?
Tianji Pavilion.
Feeling a premonition, Feng Chuan picked up the Messenger Token.
Immediately after, the cold voice of the Destiny Empress rang out:
“Don’t panic!”
“Hu Feifei attracted the Saint Ascension Tribulation because she obtained the Heart of Thunder from the Thunder Pool Grand Hall.”
“But the Saintly Venerable had tampered with the Heart of Thunder long ago, and anyone undergoing the tribulation would face a tenfold increase in the power of the Saint Ascension Tribulation.”
“After today, there will be no one named Hu Feifei.”
Hearing this, Feng Chuan was overjoyed.
“So that’s the case!”
“Haha, Hu Feifei is doomed!”
“When the time comes, Ye Feng will surely be devastated, I can immediately prepare a gift, and after Hu Feifei has fallen and her Dao dissipated, I’ll pretend to go offer condolences and see Ye Feng’s expression.”
“Ye Feng, you’ve also got your day, hahaha!”
Feng Chuan was too happy.
He immediately sent people to prepare gifts, and then, as fast as he could, flew towards Misty Peak, standing near the Taiyue Mountain Range and quietly waited.
…
In the high sky.
The third wave of Heavenly Tribulation descended.
These were one hundred and eight streaks of Golden Divine Thunder.
Crack!
Even though Hu Feifei had entered the Third Combat Form, she was still struck severely injured, her body cracked all over, almost bursting apart.
“Empress Feitian is about to be disintegrated!”
“Alas!”
“It’s the heaven wanting to doom Empress Feitian!”
“Sky above, Earth below, is it so hard for Shenzhou to see the birth of a new Saint Realm?”
Across Shenzhou, countless people were in sorrow.
In their eyes, Hu Feifei was probably unable to hold on any longer.
Crackle!
When the one hundred and eight streaks of Golden Divine Thunder exploded at the same time, Hu Feifei finally couldn’t withstand it and her body shattered.
At that moment, millions cried.
“Good, utterly brilliant!”
Feng Chuan burst into laughter.
Whoosh!
However, in the void, a gust of wind came by, and a pink silhouette rapidly formed—it was Hu Feifei.
She stood mid-air, carrying the Hunyuan Staff, and disdainfully flicked her nose:
“Psh! Just this for a Saint Ascension Tribulation?”
Clang!
Hu Feifei stowed the Hunyuan Staff into the inner space in her tail and just stood there with her arms crossed, not dodging or hiding.
“Come on, Heavenly Tribulation, keep striking me!”
She shouted.
Boom, boom, boom…
It seemed that the Saint Ascension Tribulation was enraged, as the fourth wave of heavenly tribulation erupted with a total of three hundred sixty strikes, tremendously powerful, instantly grinding Hu Feifei into nothingness.
But soon, Hu Feifei reformed again.
The fifth wave of heavenly tribulation burst forth.
This was one thousand and one strikes!
Hu Feifei was immediately shattered by the blast, but quickly, she reconstituted her body by absorbing the energy, her aura always at its peak without any adverse effects.
“What’s going on?”
“Empress Feitian seems to have an undying body!”
All major forces’ cultivators were dumbfounded.
In this world, there was probably only Hu Feifei who could face a massively enhanced Saint Ascension Tribulation without fear, and every time she was shattered, she could easily reconstitute herself.
Boom!
The sixth wave of Heavenly Tribulation arrived swiftly.
These were precisely three thousand streaks of golden heavenly thunder, symbolizing the Three Thousand Great Dao, all striking down on Hu Feifei.
She didn’t even have time to grunt before being utterly shattered.
But, Hu Feifei quickly reformed again.
Next, there were the last three major tribulations.
“It is said that the first six tribulations of the Saint Ascension Tribulation are Golden Divine Thunder, while the last three are the terrifying low temperatures, high temperatures, and the supreme Nine Heavens Thunderfire.”
Luo Yu Quasi-Saint spoke loudly, educating the crowd.
Whoosh, Whoosh, Whoosh!
Suddenly, the temperature around them plummeted.
Everyone looked up and saw a swath of frost spreading toward Hu Feifei; even time seemed to freeze, preventing Hu Feifei from dodging, and she was frozen in an instant.
Crack!
She shattered again but was unharmed.
The seventh tribulation, the Frost Tribulation, thus concluded.
Atop Misty Peak.
Ye Feng observed the Saint Ascension Tribulation and was inspired. He began to deduce and prepare to create an unparalleled Divine Skill.
Heavenly Tribulation Descent!
At the peak of the Taiyue Mountain Range.
Feng Chuan stared blankly at the scene, his hands trembling uncontrollably.
“How could this happen!”
“Wasn’t Hu Feifei supposed to be killed by the Heavenly Tribulation?”
“Why, how could she not die no matter what?”
Feng Chuan was so upset he almost fainted.
High in the sky.
A Three-legged Golden Crow, blazing with scorching flames, swooped down, opened its mouth, and spewed out intensely hot flames, slowly melting Hu Feifei.
Ten full minutes later, the Three-legged Golden Crow disappeared.
This was the eighth tribulation, the Divine Fire Tribulation!
But in just a moment, Hu Feifei reconstituted her form, returning to her peak condition.
[Hu Feifei’s Upgrade Energy: 35%]
Having endured the previous eight massive tribulations, her upgrade energy had surpassed one-third.
If Feng Chuan and the Destiny Empress knew, they would be gnashing their teeth in anger.
“There’s just one last massive tribulation, the Nine Heavens Thunderfire!”
Luo Yu Quasi-Saint took a deep breath, clenched his fists, as nervous as if he were the one facing the tribulation.
Atop Misty Peak.
Ye Feng was still deducing the brand-new Divine Skill, “Heavenly Tribulation Descent,” focused and meticulous.
Rumble!
The void began to tremble.
A sheet of golden flames fell, transforming into a massive furnace that enveloped Hu Feifei, refining her.
During this period, frost and Divine Fire appeared alternately.
Because the power of the Saint Ascension Tribulation had increased tenfold, even a true Saint Entry Realm would be burned to death in the furnace created by the Nine Heavens Thunderfire.
“Sect Leader, it’s so hot!”
“Sect Leader, it’s so cold!”
“Sect Leader, I feel like I’m undergoing a transformation!”
Ye Feng was sitting at the peak, deducing Divine Skills, but he heard Hu Feifei’s voice.
“What’s going on?”
Ye Feng looked up, seeing the huge and scorching Nine Heavens Thunderfire Furnace, and felt the surge in Hu Feifei’s energy.
Her body seemed to be evolving!
[Hu Feifei’s Upgrade Energy: 50%]
…
[Hu Feifei’s Upgrade Energy: 75%]
Soon, Hu Feifei’s upgrade energy reached 100%, and she began to undergo a complete transformation.
“System, what’s happening?”
Ye Feng could only ask inwardly.
“Detection reveals Hu Feifei is absorbing an overload of special universal energy, her body has evolved and is developing toward a true sentient being.”
The System explained.
“You mean, after Hu Feifei completes her transformation, she could become a real sentient being?”
Ye Feng was shocked.
“Yes, this process is called ‘Spiritual Transformation’.” The System replied again, then fell silent.
“It seems I owe the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable thanks; without his tampering with the Heart of Thunder, Feifei wouldn’t have possibly undergone Spiritual Transformation.”
Ye Feng grinned.
This round was a huge win!
Throughout Shenzhou.
Countless were watching, waiting for the Nine Heavens Thunderfire Furnace to open, to see if Hu Feifei could survive, which would mean she had truly ascended to sainthood!
Apart from Ye Feng, who already knew the truth, everyone was waiting.
At the peak of the Taiyue Mountain Range.
“Burn her, burn her!”
Feng Chuan clenched his fists, screaming internally.
At Suspended Mountain.
The Destiny Empress no longer cared to close her eyes, staring intensely toward Shenzhou, wondering if the Nine Heavens Thunderfire could burn Hu Feifei to death.
