Chapter 163: Bom From the Brink of Death
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Tran station
hi recent years, a shockingly talented Marquis Champion had appeared in Dashang.
He was also the first person in nearly a thousand years to possess a divine body.
If Marquis Champion were to die here today, the Emperor of Dashang would be furious!
At that time, they would inevitably be punished and might even lose their lives because of this.
“I never thought that the era of Marquis Champion would end like this before it even began…”
A Dashang marquis sighed.
This person was none other than Marquis Wu’an, whom Su Chen had met once at the border of Qingzhou.
Beside him was Marquis Changping. The two of them had rushed over immediately after hearing the news of Fahui’s appearance.
However, they did not expect to arrive and see such a scene.
“Marquis Changping, do you think Marquis Champion might already be dead?”
Marquis Wu’an surveyed his surroundings and secretly transmitted to Marquis Changping.
The two of them knew nothing about Marquis Champion s plan.
The order they received was to guard the border of Qingzhou.
Therefore…
Whether Marquis Champion died or not didn’t really matter to them.
They just couldn’t believe it.
After all, they had seen Su Chen enter Qingzhou with their own eyes.
Now, witnessing Su Chen defeating Marquis Champion felt somewhat surreal.
“He shouldn’t be dead, but he’s only severely injured. Now Su Chen is about to face the ninth heavenly tribulation, even someone as powerful as him needs to treat it with his all. We just need to wait for the heavenly tribulation to dissipate, and there will naturally be experts here to support Marquis Champion. However, the most important question now is whether Marquis Champion, who has already been severely injured, can safely overcome the ninth heavenly tribulation.”
Marquis Changping looked at the center of the sea of lightning and pondered for a long time before replying.
Rumble!
However, as soon as he finished speaking, thunder sounded from the center of the heavenly tribulation.
The world was instantly dyed red, with blood-colored lightning everywhere, surging like an ocean.
The might of this heavenly tribulation exceeded the previous one several times over!
The rumored ninth heavenly tribulation was about to descend!
It was not an exaggeration to call this kind of heavenly tribulation the World Extinguishing Lightning Tribulation.
Even those who were outside the range of the heavenly tribulation could not help but feel goosebumps and sweat profusely.
Even from so far away from the heavenly tribulation, they could feel the vast power.
They could not imagine what it would be like to be in the midst of the heavenly tribulation.
Crack!
The blood-red lightning turned into thousands of lightning dragons.
Each of them was extremely thick, dancing in the air.
Su Chen’s eyes lit up after smashing a few lightning dragons.
“The Nirvana Realm!”
He whispered, “Finding a glimmer of hope amidst death, being reborn from the brink of death, is the path to Nirvana.1’
Thinking of this, Su Chen sat down cross-legged.
However, the moment he sat down, he was completely submerged in the sea of lightning.
Endless lightning struck his body, smashing large swathes of flesh and exposing his ghastly white bones. It was terrifying to behold.
Fortunately, having refined the Black Blood Stone in the World of Dark Creatures, his body’s recovery speed was monstrous.
Every time his flesh was shattered, it would recover in no time.
He tried to guide the lightning into his body, wanting to experience what the Laws of Destruction was like.
Although the heavenly tribulation fell under the Law of Thunder, what was most contained within the thunder was the Laws of Destruction from the three thousand Great Dao Laws.
The instant the blood-red thunder entered the body, Su Chen’s meridians shattered in an instant, as if tens of thousands of primordial fierce beasts were rampaging through his meridians.
The pain was extreme like being cut into pieces by thousands of blades.
Even Su Chen s resilient psyche couldn’t help but groan.
He felt as if his internal organs had been affected and almost shattered by the lightning.
Fortunately, in the end, he endured.
Time slowly passed.
The ninth heavenly tribulation lasted for a very long time.
During this period of time, Su Chen kept drawing lightning into his body.
His body was also constantly being destroyed and then reborn.
During this process, his body seemed to have been forged inside out, and his entire body emitted a divine glow.
In the end, he could even withstand several lightning strikes without being destroyed!
“So this is the legendary ninth heavenly tribulation? It lasted for such a long time. How could anyone survive?”
Looking at the sky brightening, someone exclaimed in shock.
The ninth heavenly tribulation had already lasted for an entire night.
The thunderclouds showed no signs of dispersing the whole night.
Forget about humans, even a piece of divine crystal would have been refined by now, right?
This ninth heavenly tribulation was not meant to be overcome successfully.
The first eight heavenly tribulations were all one-time.
As long as one blocked the simultaneous descent of countless lightning strikes, it was considered passed.
However, the ninth heavenly tribulation was unwilling to dissipate.
“Could Su Chen and Marquis Champion be dead?”
A young man whispered softly.
Two prodigies died at the same time.
This was a huge blow to both Dashang and Dachu.
However, for ordinary prodigies, this was an opportunity!
Unknowingly, two great mountains above their heads were gone.
“Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t understand. Be careful not to invite death! If they all died in the heavenly tribulation, the heavenly tribulation would have dissipated by now. However, the heavenly tribulation still remains, which means that at least one of them is still alive!”
A Spirit Sea Realm expert shouted.
Another half a day passed, the sun was now high in the sky, and the original ninth heavenly tribulation had finally weakened somewhat.
When the onlookers saw this scene, they all revealed looks of joy.
However, just when everyone thought that the ninth heavenly tribulation was about to end…
“Roar!”
A dragon s cry rang out, shaking the nine heavens and connecting the nine netherworlds, resounding through heaven and earth.
An ancient sky dragon swooped down from the dark clouds.
It was a dragon formed entirely from Lightning, its body condensed to an incredible degree, like a true living dragon.
The dragon’s head was like a mountain, and its horns were like divine weapons. It rushed out of the thunderclouds and collided with them.
Even the Eldest Prince, who had already passed the Nirvana Tribulation, could not help but feel his heart tremble at the aura.
“This is… There’s more?”
Someone widened their eyes in disbelief.
What exactly was this lightning dragon?
The ninth heavenly tribulation?
Or could it be..the tenth?
The tenth heavenly tribulation?
If it was the ninth, the blood-colored tribulation had persisted the entire night.
But there was no record of a heavenly tribulation having a final radiance.
But if this was the tenth heavenly tribulation…
Would it be considered a new historical record?
That was because…
No one had ever heard of a tenth heavenly tribulation within rhe Nirvana Tribulation!
“Boom!”
While countless people were shocked, under the heavenly tribulation, a tall figure stood upright.
Brimming with heroic spirit, after experiencing the full night of tribulation, he was not only unharmed, but his aura was even more vigorous and sharp!
He took a step forward, and his Qi and blood surged for hundreds of miles.
The faint presence of the Nirvana Realm could be sensed.
He rushed up into the sky and a snow-white sword appeared in his hand. He slashed at the lightning dragon..
