Chapter 1074: Chapter 1074
Lightning flashed and thunder roared. The Heavenly Tribulation came so abruptly, raging and unmatched, submerging the entire world in an instant.
This ancient continent spanning millions of miles was no exception, already riddled with cracks from the battle between the two; now it began to collapse further.
This was Ye Chen’s Heavenly Tribulation, terrifying and astonishing, terrifying to the extreme, with thousands upon thousands of massive bolts of Heavenly Thunder crashing down, illuminating the heavens and shattering the Cangyu Earth.
This didn’t seem like ordinary Heavenly Thunder; it resembled a vast sea of thunder pouring down, engulfing the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Rumble, rumble, rumble——
The starry sky resounded with massive thunderous explosions, shaking the heavens and the earth.
Even in the Emperor City, countless miles away, the sounds were deafening. One could look up and see extremely brilliant light in the starry sky, overshadowing the ten wheels of the Heavenly Sun.
"Such a strong Heavenly Tribulation, beyond imagination!"
"Even a Heavenly King Tribulation might not be this intense."
"Could someone be about to cross tribulation, to break through the Heavenly King Realm?"
Many were astonished, shocked by the grand tribulation.
Ye Chen stood amidst the endless Great Tribulation, not dodging or evading, allowing the ten-thousand-fold tribulation to impact him. His Golden Light circulated, and even the strongest thunderbolts only caused wisps of smoke to rise from his Combat Saint Body, unable to harm his Invincible Golden Body.
The world was shocked!
In the distance, Shen Rong’s gaze shifted, and he boldly stepped forward, directly entering the Heavenly Tribulation.
"Shen Rong has rushed into the Heavenly King Tribulation!"
The world exclaimed, under such a terrifying thunder tribulation, the destructive force to be endured was unimaginable; a Supreme only had one path, certain death, and even the Heavenly Kings dared not enter rashly.
This should have been avoided, yet Shen Rong not only didn’t avoid it but actively charged in. Was it to prove his own invincibility?
After returning to the Heavenly King Realm, his true body was evidently much stronger than before, traversing the starry sky, his figure blurred yet fearsome, causing the Heavenly Stars to seem to tremble, eager to fall.
The starry sky shattered, forcefully opened a Divine Light Channel, Shen Rong’s true body absolutely fearsome, far stronger than before, unleashing an immortal supreme qi mechanism, causing everything to collapse.
Tens of thousands of Heavenly Thunders struck his body, all blocked, without even causing a cough of blood.
He said coldly, "This is what you call a Heavenly King Tribulation, stronger than normal, but much weaker than I imagined."
He had the right to say so because the Heavenly King Tribulation he faced in the past was unimaginably more terrifying than the one before him.
And now, the massive thunderbolts striking him only raised wisps of smoke, nothing more, unable to harm his physical body.
His strength was like the resurrection of an Ancient Great Emperor, ruling the world, releasing an invincible qi mechanism in the Heavenly King Realm, causing even the Heavenly Thunders to be pushed back, unable to approach his Supreme Treasure Body.
One had to admit, Shen Rong was indeed incredibly powerful, so much so that the Heavenly King Tribulation could not even come near his supreme treasure body.
His true body charged into the sea of thunder, raising a fist to strike Ye Chen, with supreme strength, such waves making even Heavenly Kings lose color, far beyond their reach.
Ye Chen’s silhouette shifted, responding coldly, "You are wrong, this is not my Heavenly King Tribulation; it’s merely an incomplete Saintly Treasure Great Tribulation. Though it falls short of a Heavenly King Tribulation, I advise you to suppress your realm while crossing tribulation, lest you regret it later."
In the past, Ye Chen was crossing tribulation in the Demon God Ruins, lacking a part of the tribulation at the end, and now it reappeared.
This was done with intention back then, feeling it would have great use in the future, temporarily concealing it with a heaven-defying technique from the Combat Saint Technique, now using it on Shen Rong, the true horror is about to appear.
Shen Rong was about to respond cynically, but next moment, the Heavenly Tribulation above intensified dramatically, at a higher point in the Heavenly Dome, a far grander sea of Tribulation Light and Thunder appeared, vast and mighty, engulfing the entire starry sky, unleashing endless thunderbolts.
The destructive aura was many times stronger than before, an incarnation of sheer terror.
In the starry sky, star after star, remnants of past battles and broken, now under the sea of Tribulation Light and Thunder, shattered completely.
Finally, Shen Rong took it a bit more seriously.
But it wasn’t over yet, above this layer of Tribulation Light and Thunder, another stronger and broader sea of Tribulation Light and Thunder appeared, layer upon layer, a full nine layers, seemingly representing the Nine Layer Heaven.
Nine layers of vast Tribulation Light and Thunder Sea, exceedingly stronger than the first arrival by manyfold.
Above the nine-layered Tribulation Light and Thunder Sea, an incomparably majestic mysterious Thunderbolt Gate appeared, towering into the depths of the starry sky, immensely large, exuding an ancient and weathered aura.
This was startling, clearly just condensed from the Tribulation Light and Thunder, yet possessed such an ancient and forlorn presence, as if it truly existed.
Upon seeing the Thunderbolt Light Gate appear, Shen Rong immediately trembled all over, showing shock.
Not only him, but even in the far starry sky, Di Wuming from the blue jade chariot could not help but step out, standing there, gazing intently, his eyes awe-inspiring.
After the Thunderbolt Gate opened, one mysterious figure after another emerged, some with heroic and peerless auras, some with grace and elegance, others with towering and majestic figures, as well as some with delicate features.
There were both men and women, but undoubtedly, each was so supremely invincible, exuding an unmatched Dao Qi Mechanism, comparable to the youthful era of the Ancient Great Emperors.
There were as many as nine, each so terrifying; although their aura was only at the early stage of the Saintly Treasure Realm, their power was formidable enough to rival a Saint, astonishingly terrifying.
The nine figures, like nine Mythical Emperors descending, ruled the world, overlooking the Heavens.
"Human-shaped lightning appeared during the Heavenly Tribulation!?"
Many people exclaimed in surprise because such a scene, ancient or future, at least for the powerhouses in the Ancient Emperor Realm, had never truly been encountered before in history.
"Human-shaped lightning? Emperor’s Embodiment? Heavenly Embodiment?"
Whether they were Shen Rong or Di Wuming, their eyes were flashing with astonishing brilliance.
They appeared calm, yet inside, waves of astonishment surged because they were true heirs of the Emperor, having stayed by the side of their fathers and heard some shocking legends from them, including stories about the Ten-layered Heaven Level.
The Mythical Emperor and the Royal Family had theorized, knowing the great destruction of the Mythical Era, that the next epoch would have a defect in the Heavenly Dao, losing a layer of heaven, and this epoch’s Dao was flawed, allowing cultivation only up to the Ninth Layer Heaven.
But the outcome is not singular; there is also the potential to break through, using one’s own body to give birth to the Tenth Layer Heaven.
If such a person were to exist, they could be said to be a young supreme of the Ten-layered Heaven Level, complementing the Heavenly Dao, with a slight hope of becoming an Emperor, like in the Mythical Era.
However, in this epoch, it falls far short of the Mythical Era; the hope of becoming an Emperor is genuinely slim, even difficult for the Emperor’s heirs. Chapters fırst released on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝙣𝙚𝙩
The Mythical Emperor and the Royal Family calculated that in a future grand era, there might appear hope for becoming an Emperor; it is at this time of emergence and competition that there is hope for completely becoming an Emperor, becoming the first Supreme Emperor of this epoch’s history.
However, they also foretold that if, in future generations, a Heavenly Pride achieves the Mythical Tenth Layer Heaven, and during his or her great calamity, the Emperor’s Shadow or Heavenly Embodiment appears, it signifies that this person already holds another true opportunity for becoming an Emperor.
In the future, even if someone achieves the Dao first, they too could bypass it, equally achieving the Dao, breaking into the Emperor Domain, looking down on the past and present, becoming part of the Supreme Emperor lineup of the next epoch.
Such rumors are astonishing, known only to a very few, even among the Emperor and the Royal Family, aside from extremely ancient beings and the Emperor’s sons and daughters.
And now that it has appeared, doesn’t it mean that Ye Chen is that prophesied individual, with the opportunity to become an Emperor?
If that is indeed the case, Ye Chen’s achievements will be immeasurably great.
Ye Chen, at this moment, suppressed his realm, just showcasing the aura of an initial entry into the Saintly Treasure Realm.
"Something special, a distinctive human-shaped lightning appeared, but I don’t believe you are the one foretold in the prophecy."
However, Shen Rong’s eyes shone brilliantly, not believing that Ye Chen was the person spoken of by the previous generation of Emperors. He didn’t even suppress his realm and slapped forward with the power of the Heavenly King Realm, aiming to destroy all the figures on the Thunderbolt Light Gate with one strike.
Divine power surged to the heavens, destroying heaven and earth!
From deep in the starry sky, there was a massive explosion, with half of the Tribulation Light and Thunder Sea shattered, a towering Heavenly Embodiment struck out, instantly absorbing endless Tribulation Light and Thunder Sea, elevating its qi mechanism directly to the Heavenly King Realm level, launching an attack.
Shen Rong’s assault was blocked, and that figure leaped through the thunder sea, appearing before him in a flash, striking so suddenly that Shen Rong was caught off guard, sending him flying and sprinkling blood across the sky.
Even a powerful being like Shen Rong at the Heavenly King Realm couldn’t withstand it, sent flying with one direct hit.
It wasn’t that Shen Rong wasn’t strong enough; he was careless, thinking he could suppress with a higher realm, and was caught off guard.
Who would have thought the Heavenly Tribulation would adjust, facing Shen Rong of the Heavenly King Realm, the Heavenly Embodiment also elevated to that realm, striking him until his blood flew across the sky.
Ye Chen sneered coldly, "I’ve always told you to suppress your realm, yet you just wouldn’t believe it, making yourself so embarrassed, serves you right!"
Too domineering, even kicking someone when they’re down, which left many speechless.
Also, a Heavenly Embodiment descended, appearing before Ye Chen, launching the most terrifying attack, shattering the heavens and earth, rushing forward.
Ye Chen faced it head-on, deploying divine skills in a peak battle.
The Tribulation Light and Thunder Sea surged massively, causing cracks to appear on the Ancient Continent with a loud rumble, in full collapse.
Suddenly, Ye Chen’s figure moved horizontally, as if he were a Roc, soaring through the nine realms, quickly leaving the range of the Heavenly Tribulation, rushing toward the depths of the starry sky.
This left many stunned; what does this mean, trying to avoid the Heavenly Tribulation, don’t they know it follows you everywhere?
Yet, in that direction, a Divine Ship lay waiting, everyone on it changing color, shockingly the location where the Heavenly Kings of the Ancient God Continent resided.
"You rats, I’ve been waiting for you a long time!" Ye Chen’s mouth curled into a cold smile.
