“How arrogant, in such a situation, to still dare to cross the quasi saintly tribulation, truly not placing this Saint in his eyes.”
Saint Hong Yuan’s arms spread out, once again propping up the gigantic Saint Elephant Shadow, and just as he was about to make his move, he realised that the calamity cloud above his head was condensing thicker and broader, radiating an aura that made even he, a Saint, feel a little dangerous.
“Wow.”
A thick lightning bolt, flew across the sky, causing the layers and layers of calamity clouds to become momentarily bright and momentarily dark, like heavenly swords travelling through the void.
It must be known that a normal Ninth Order Demi-Saint transiting his first Quasi-Saint Calamity would attract a calamity cloud that was roughly ten miles in length.
However, the calamity cloud that Gu Linfeng had induced was already more than forty miles long, and it was still growing, becoming wider and wider.
“What’s going on, could it be that Gu Linfeng isn’t crossing the First Paragon Tribulation, but the Third Paragon?”
“If Gu Linfeng had already transited the first and second Paragon Saints’ Tribulation, there would be some slight differences in the power of the Saint Dao in his body. However, right now, this Saint is unable to feel that difference in him, he shouldn’t have reached the Paragon realm yet.”A Palace Master of the Blood God Sect said.
It wasn’t until this time that those Half-Saints of the Blood God Sect realised that Gu Linfeng was only at the Ninth Order Half-Saint realm.
“To be able to call the shots of a Hong Yuan Saint after only being a Ninth Order Half-Saint, Your Highness the Divine Son is truly the Blood God Sect’s number one wunderkind since its founding, and once he becomes a Saint, he will surely be able to shake the Kunlun Realm.”
Dharma King Earth Element grunted, “His first Paramount Sacred Tribulation is coming on strong, it’s more fierce than many cultivators’ third Paramount Sacred Tribulation, I’m afraid he’s going to die under the tribulation lightning.”
Many cultivators actually shared the same thoughts as Earth Elemental Dharma King because, Gu Linfeng’s realm advancement was too frightening, in just one year’s time, he had broken through from a Second Order Semi-Saint, to a Ninth Order Semi-Saint, and now he was even about to cross the Quasi-Saint Tribulation.
If the realm was rising so fast, how could the foundation be solid?
If one did not have a solid foundation, but wanted to cross the Quasi-Saint Tribulation, it was undoubtedly asking for one’s own death.
Saint Hong Yuan hesitated, but in the end, he didn’t continue to strike for fear of being attacked by the calamity lightning.
The calamity cloud that Gu Linfeng had attracted had already enveloped an area of seventy to eighty miles in a radius.
Simply crossing the first Paramount Sage Tribulation was just that, yet it had attracted such a terrifying thunder tribulation, which was already completely out of the knowledge of all the cultivators present.
“Without the need for this Saint to make a move, the Four Nine Tribulations will be able to exterminate him.”Saint Hong Yuan secretly said.
The heavens and earth contained a solemn aura, like a storm was about to come, and all the cultivators were filled with awe at the might of the heavens and earth that was dispersed from the calamity clouds.
“Wow!”
A purple lightning bolt as thick as a bucket rushed out from the calamity cloud and struck straight downwards, landing on top of Zhang Ruochen’s head.
Zhang Ruochen did not dodge and stood still, his entire body in a relaxed state.
“Puffing.”
Zhang Ruochen was as if he had been subjected to the suppression of a hundred thousand mountains, his body trembled violently and fell downwards for a hundred metres before he regained his footing.
He was still standing in the void, with electric light flowing all over his body.
However, the lightning of the calamity could not help him, not even his head was damaged.
“How is it possible? Such a powerful calamity lightning, even this Saint might not be able to withstand it, but he was actually able to remain undamaged, could it be that he had already cultivated his physical body to the realm of adamantine invulnerability?”Saint Hong Yuan was quite surprised, as if he had seen a ghost.
Back then, when he crossed the Quasi-Saint Tribulation, he had survived nine deaths, how could it be as easy as Gu Linfeng was now?
The Hong Yuan Sage transmitted his voice to the Earth Elemental Dharma King, asking if he wanted to make a move to suppress Gu Linfeng now, lest it would be even more difficult to clean up after he passed the Paramount Sacred Tribulation.
The Earth Elemental Dharma King transmitted his voice back to him, saying, “With your cultivation, breaking into into the Thunder Tribulation Zone, even if you are able to suppress Gu Linfeng, I’m afraid that you yourself will fall.”
“Master Teacher can do it himself.”
Sage Hongyuan always felt that Gu Linfeng was a not-so-small threat that had to be gotten rid of.
The Earth Elemental Dharma King pondered for a moment before he added, “Gu Linfeng is, after all, a Divine Son with a special status, killing him directly will definitely attract criticism and become an excuse for the other few old men to use to attack the old man, which will not be conducive to the next competition for the position of Sect Leader.”
“Besides, with the Four Nine Heavens, there are a total of thirty-six Heavens of Lightning, one more powerful than the other, Gu Linfeng may not be able to hold out until the end. Being able to kill him with the help of the calamity thunder, there’s no need for old me to do it myself.”
In the calamity clouds, a deafening popping sound rang out, and purple lightning continued to fall as if it were a rainfall.
“Clatter,” “Boom!”
……
Soon, Zhang Ruochen had already undergone the baptism of eighteen thunder tribulations, and the skin of his entire body turned crimson, like red-hot ceramics, with grains of sparks flying out.
Every time he was knocked down, he would fly back up into mid-air, as if he was deliberately trying to get closer to the lightning robberies.
“Senior Sister Huang was right, the power of the tribulation lightning is truly capable of tempering the physical body and Saint Soul, every time I endure a lightning strike, it’s as if my entire body has been washed once more. As long as I’m able to survive the first Quasi-Saintly Tribulation, I should be able to sanctify some more orifices, and it’s not certain that I can reach the point of fleshly body sainthood in one fell swoop.”
Zhang Ruochen no longer considered anything else and began to operate his gong method, gulping in the spiritual qi of heaven and earth.
The thunderbolts were becoming more and more ferocious, each one falling with devastating power, melting the piece of earth beneath Zhang Ruochen into a rocky lake.
Especially the last nine thunderbolts, like nine waterfalls pouring down at the same time, directly engulfing Zhang Ruochen, the sound was extremely powerful, seemingly destroying the sky and the earth.
The disciples in the Blood God Sect, all of them held their breath, looking out at the nine lightning waterfalls falling from the sky, their legs could not help but tremble.
“Finally, you still haven’t been able to pass the Paramount Sacred Tribulation?”Ji Shui let out a soft sigh.
Although it was true that Gu Linfeng was quite annoying and had acted greedy and fearful of death in the Green Dragon Ruins Realm, Ji Shui was, after all, his senior uncle and had watched him grow up step by step.
Now that he had gone from glory to destruction, Ji Shui was more or less a bit sorry.
Shangguan Xianyan’s pair of almond eyes radiated a rippling lustre as she looked closely, but she couldn’t see Gu Linfeng’s figure at all, saying, “Has it gone up in smoke?”
The Blood God Sect’s senior members in the Guyuan Divine Palace had different expressions on each of their faces, and among them, quite a few of the cultivators revealed relaxed smiles. With Gu Linfeng’s fall, they would have one less stumbling block.
“Wow!”
A silhouette rushed out of the red-golden rock lake, bare .Naked, it flew all the way to the cloudy void.
It was none other than Zhang Ruochen.
“What?”
Almost everyone was stunned, their gazes staring at Zhang Ruochen’s body in unison.
Zhang Ruochen had undergone the baptism of thirty-six tribulation thunderbolts in a row and had successfully reached the First Tribulation Quasi-Saint realm.
After being tempered by the lightning, the impurities in his body were refined, the surface of his skin was glistening with holy light, and both his fleshly body and holy soul were significantly transformed and upgraded by a large margin.
Zhang Ruochen’s ten fingers pinched, his knuckles making a cackling sound as he laughed, “Finally crossing into the Quasi-Saint realm.”
An icy killing intent appeared in the eyes of the Earth Elemental Dharma King, his lips moved as he spat out a sound wave, “Gu Linfeng must have already suffered a considerable amount of injuries when he crossed over, kill him while his cultivation has yet to be consolidated.”
“Wow…”
Saint Hong Yuan’s eyes lit up and he immediately took action, his hands formed a seal, and at the centre of his eyebrows, a tens of miles long Flame Chain flew out, and in mid-air, it formed a sinuous arc.
The Flame Chain was refined from the spines of twelve Saint Beasts, containing twelve kinds of Saint Dao power, and when it was activated with full force, it exploded out with a power that was capable of opening mountains and cracking the ground.
Even with the cultivation of the Hong Yuan Saint, he could only strike the Flame Chain three times at most.
If, within three strokes, the opponent was not killed, then the Hong Yuan Sage could only choose to flee for his life.
Until it was absolutely necessary, the Hong Yuan Saint Saint simply did not want to use this kind of extermination tactic.
Zhang Ruochen looked at the flaming chains that flew over, and a smile appeared in his eyes, appearing to have a breezy demeanour.
Seeing that the flame chains were about to whip into Gu Linfeng’s body, he did not dodge at all.
“Gu Linfeng is indeed very powerful, but unfortunately he’s still too young and a bit presumptuous, doesn’t he know that Saint Hongyuan once killed a Saint with his Flame Bone Demon Chain?”
“A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, I’m afraid that he’s going to experience the great joys and sorrows of his life today, and the realm of the First Happening Quasi-Saint is going to be the end of his path on the Sacred Path.”
……
Zhang Ruochen’s palm slapped forward, and a huge handprint flew out from the top of the Seven Killing Fist Gloves, becoming more and more gigantic, and in the end, it was almost as if it had transformed into a five-fingered mountain.
“Boom.”
The raging Fire Bone Demon Chain was sent flying backwards, and the “Five Finger Mountain” continued to press forward, enveloping Saint Hong Yuan’s body.
A miserable scream came out of the Hong Yuan Saint’s mouth, and the holy bones in his body resounded with crackling sounds, actually breaking off a large portion of his body, and his physical body almost crumbled.
“So strong …… ah ……”
Saint Hong Yuan turned and fled, not daring to engage Gu Linfeng again.
Gu Linfeng, who had reached the Quasi-Saint realm, gave him an invincible might, and at this moment, Saint Hongyuan couldn’t care less about the dignity of a Saint, and only wanted to flee immediately.
“Can’t he give a chance to perform an escape secret technique, nor can he give the Earth Elemental Dharma King a chance to save him, kill him with the fastest possible degree.”
The Saint Qi in Zhang Ruochen’s body surged into his eyes in a steady stream.
In both eyes, two divine seals operated quickly, and immediately after, two bright pillars of light flew out from the pupils and struck the Hong Yuan Saint’s head.
“Boom.”
The Hong Yuan Saint’s skull shattered and his head burst open.
The Hong Yuan Sage’s headless body continued to fly forward for another ten miles or so to the outside of the Return to Origin Divine Palace, and took four steps forward in a row before finally collapsing to the ground with a bang, spilling holy blood all over the place.
If the head had been severed, as long as the treatment was immediate, it could still be renewed, after all, the life force of a Saint was quite strong.
However, Saint Hong Yuan’s head was shattered, where was the chance to live?
Silence.
This piece of heaven and earth became incomparably silent, and the vast majority of cultivators revealed looks of fear.
A Saint fell …… and, was beheaded right in front of everyone’s eyes.
