Chapter 48 Pass the Tribulation

Di Qing peered at Su Chenyang. The young man before him looked calm and easy. Di Qing could not help thinking of that person. “Their temperament is similar. But the man has become the soul of the saber.” Di Qing was a bit stupefied. They used to be as close as brothers. But later, Di Qing turned back on the brotherhood because of power.

“Take him to the Blood Pool.”

Di Qing spit out the spirit and looked for the souls of the corpse. After paying allegiance to Chidi, Di Qing had sucked countless human’s blood, and his Spirit Power was advanced by leaps and bounds. It was the power bestowed by Chidi. Di Qing would prefer Chidi to attack the Mount Kunlun, and make Shenzong of the Kunlun bow to the power. But Di Qing never expected that Xu Linghe was still alive. And what would they do when they met on the battleground?

“Yes.”

Little demons hurried Su Chenyang to move forward. Su Chenyang bound by the Spirit Power looked at Nascent Soul coldly. “I have to think of a way to escape.” Nascent Soul laughed and thought that, “There is not a good thing in the Fairy Kingdom. This is especially true for the youth before. He fails to answer my daughter’s expectation.”

“All retreat. I will send this youth to the Blood Pool.”

Little demons were happy inwardly and hastened to be invisibility. Nascent Soul would like to see Su Chenyang’s spirit was to be sucked by Chidi. “Xiao Qi, wait and see. I will occupy the Fairy City one day and make you kneel and beg for mercy.”

Su Chenyang looked around and kept in mind firmly the mechanisms in the underground palace. Nascent Soul was on guard against Su Chenyang’s sneak attack all the way. Although Su Chenyang’s hands were constrained, Nascent Soul knew that Su Chenyang had the ability to conduct a surprise raid.

The Blood Pool was boiling. Su Chenyang was tied by the Spirit Power. Looking at the giant snake-shape monster, Su Chenyang remained calmer. “Is it Chidi in the legend?”

“Sorry to disturb Junior Uncle Grandmaster.” Nascent Soul showed great respect to the monster.

“Nascent Soul, is there any movement in Shenzong of the Kunlun?”

“Junior Uncle Grandmaster, Shenzong will offer his seat to another one the fifteenth next month.”

“Do you know who will be the next head of the Kunlun?”

“The spy reported that, it will be Shenzong’s grand disciple, Xu Linghe.”

“What did you say?”

Di Qing in the corner was more shocked. “How could it be Xu Linghe? He died under my saber. How could he come to life again?”

“Why don’t you report it early? Let me make some precautions.”

“Supervisor Yuan, has Xu Linghe really been resurrected?”

Surprised, Di Qing was more worried about himself, but there was no turning back for him. Di Qing’s brooding eyes smouldered with coldness.

“Grandmaster, please feel reassured. I have already had others keep an eyes on the Kunlun.”

“Trouble you that. There must not be something wrong tonight.”

“The Majesty, you don’t know that it is as easy as turning over a hand for Shenzong to resurrect Xu Linghe, because Shenzong is the head of the four Gods.”

“Nascent Soul, you’re right. Only when the Majesty of the Qi Kingdom ascends to be a Spirit can he understand the reason.”

“Chidi is the Fortune God of the Qi Kingdom. I will never forget your benefaction.”

“Grandmaster, grand disciple brings the spiritual offering to you.”

The monster with a snake body stared at Su Chenyang. “The youth’s body is full of Spirit Power. If I can eat his spirit, I may reduce the pain of flesh and blood when crossing the tribulation.”

“Grand disciple, you are thoughtful indeed.”

Su Chenyang knew Xu Linghe was powerful, but still did not expect that Xu Linghe would be the next head of the Kunlun. In the light, Su Chenyang was tied, and Nascent Soul picked up him and put him onto the sacrificial altar. Chidi was fond of such spiritual offering. Su Chenyang condensed his Spirit Power and tried to get away from there. It seemed that Chidi was bound to enter the way and become a Divine Being. What Xiao Qi worried about was going to happen. So Su Chenyang thought he’d better get a life first. In the Blood Pool, Phoenix could see him clearly and could not believe how Su Chenyang became the spiritual offering.

Phoenix flew out of the Blood Pool and dashed to the sacrificial altar. Seeing things going worse, Nascent Soul held up the Spirit Power net. Di Qing blasted a palm, and Phoenix was pounced several meters away. Nascent Soul picked up the robust man and squeezed his neck, and the robust man gulped the air. Su Chenyang gathered his Spirit Power secretly, intending to break away from bondage, but Chidi’s snake body rolled him up. Staring at Su Chenyang, Phoenix could not help crying. At that moment, the only person to save her was her father, so Phoenix changed her face in the flowing light. When she changed into a woman’s face, Nascent Soul looked at her in shock.

“Phoenix?”

“Father!”

Phoenix yanked at Nascent Soul’s sleeves peevishly. Di Qing was totally in a state of confusion, wondering, “How could the robust man be Supervisor Yuan’s daughter?”

“D**ned thing!”

Nascent Soul loosened her neck. “Has she taken the leopard’s gall? Dare to come to the Blood Pool. If it were not for me, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

“Father, I miss you.”

Phoenix wiped away tears in the eyes, hoping that she would not reveal flaws, and she just wanted to save Su Chenyang.

On the altar, Chidi rolled up Su Chenyang and opened his mouth. Phoenix leapt onto the alter and gathered her Spirit Power. Even though she had to risk her life, she would not allow Su Chenyang was eaten by Chidi. Nascent Soul vaulted up to block Phoenix’s attack.

“Father!”

“Go back to the fire tribe. This is not where you should come.”

Nascent Soul condensed his Spirit Power and rushed to Su Chenyang. Chidi loosened Su Chenyang and flew up. “The little girl cannot mess up the passing of tribulation tonight and Su Chenyang’s Inner Elixer must belong to me.” Chidi suspended in mid-air over the altar, his snake-shaped body shining with spirit light. Nascent Soul knew that the Grandmaster could not wait any longer. Tonight was Grandmaster’s tribulation, as well as the day when Devil God return to his position. If it was delayed, Grandmaster had to sleep in the Blood Pool. But Nascent Soul just did not expect that his daughter would find and come to the Blood Pool.

Di Qing, who had been watching with cold eyes, aimed at an opportunity and gave out another palm to the woman when seeing her off guard. How could Phoenix stand Di Qing’s heavy assault? Then, she was smashed out. Nascent Soul cast a glare at Di Qing, totally ignoring Su Chenyang in his hands. Then, Nascent Soul loosed his Spirit Power and rushed to his daughter to check whether she was hurt or not.

Su Chenyang flipped over and rose up. Di Qing followed him closely and released his Spirit Power to a palm out. Chidi on the altar was in the weakest state, so he could not bear attack, and all he could do was condensing his Spirit Power to pass the tribulation as soon as possible.

Phoenix was knocked down by Di Qing, her mouth corner bleeding. Distressed at the sight, Nascent Soul wanted to help his daughter to wipe the blood, but she avoided it. Obviously, his daughter hated him. “I should not follow Chidi to do evil things. But My daughter, do you know that even your life is given by the Grandmaster.”

Su Chenyang transformed himself into a water prick and thrust at the altar. Seeing that matters are in a bad way, Nascent Soul flew to the high altar. The water prick impacted on Nascent Soul, and his soul was cut off bleeding. Not being disturbed by external factors, Chidi spit out his spirit. Instantly, a streak of blood red spirit light soared to the sky, while Shenzong in the remote Ao Ze, Kunlun observed the celestial phenomena, estimating that it was when the grand disciple was born.

The peeled-away Inner Elixer drilled into the Blood Pool. Swimming blood spirits condensed gradually. The Inner Elixer was wrapped by little souls tightly. When the blood water boiled, the Inner Elixer was lifted up. Chidi on the altar began his tactical formation with the Chinese zither and the reincarnation mirror floating in the formation. Spirit Power dashed out of Chidi’s fingertips and infused into the celestial devices little by little. Above the palace, flowing light floated and dispersed to the underground palace circle upon circle. The Chinese zither rang, and the ringing spiritual voice entered the reincarnation mirror. At that moment, Su Chenyang could see on the altar, the reincarnation mirror was enveloped by blood souls tightly, and he never expected that the celestial device which was used to reclaim souls would be so vicious. The reincarnation mirror which was about to gather dead souls in all directions called the Evil Spirits for Chidi. An unending flow of souls flew from the reincarnation mirror. The celestial device was so formidable indeed that it could have those lonely souls clung to the Inner Elixer.

“Does the Heaven help Chidi? Let the three realms fall into war again?” The more Su Chenyang thought, the more frightened he became. When he left the Fairy Kingdom, Xiao Qi did not tell him that Chidi owned the immortal spirit of Yun Mu’s spirit. And at present, with the assistance of the reincarnation mirror, Chidi’s becoming Devil God was unstoppable. Besides, Su Chenyang also discovered a secret that the Chinese zither was the key to unlocking the reincarnation mirror.

Although Chidi on the altar did not know incantations about the Kunlun souls, he was a disciple of Creation God, Black Emperor. So Chidi did know about the reincarnation mirror, but watched strictly by Shenzong, Chidi could not put his hands on it before. But now, the reincarnation mirror was in his hands. Although he had gone through twists and turns to get it, it was worthwhile. However, to Chidi’s surprise, Xu Linghe was resurrected again. To bring the dead back to life again, Senior Brother Shenzong must have taken great pains and strength. To Chidi’s another surprise, Xu Linghe would be the next Sect Master of the Kunlun. As for the battle in the Cui Hua Mountain 500 years ago, if it had not been for Changxi and Jiangyu protecting Shenzong, how could there be what’s called Head of the Kunlun? At the thought of what had happened in those days, Chidi burst into fury. Because in the Battle of the Cui Hua Mountain, not only had Chidi go nothing good, but also his true body was taken away by the Mentor. “Mentor, since you have taken away my true body, I’ll destroy the three realms you’ve built up yourself.”

In the underground palace, blood souls were expanding while absorbing essential souls were transforming with the reincarnation mirror. When the strings of the Chinese zither dashed out of the underground palace, the reincarnation mirror held up Chidi and soared to the sky. The whole night sky was torn off by the spirit light. Seen from afar, it looked like the sky gleaming with an array of stars. Suspending in the night sky, Chidi was about to go through the lightning tribulation required to be a God. Di Qing seized Su Chenyang and flew to the Star-picking Tower. At that moment, Su Chenyang could not move because Chidi had sealed up his Spirit Power, like a fish which would be sliced up by others at will, and he could do nothing even though had strong Spirit Power. Di Qing read the sacrificing spirit incarnation which Chidi had taught him, about to peel away Su Chenyang’s fine spirit. Phoenix got rid of her father’s bondage and flew out of the underground palace. “It is the only chance to save Su Chenyang. I have to fight a way for Su Chenyang when Chidi is in the weakest state. Although Su Chenyang does not love me, I should not abandon him.” So Phoenix gestured with her hands and pressed hard to Di Qing’s forehead. Nascent Soul was worried about his daughter’s safety, after all, it was a big deal for Grandmaster to cross the tribulation. If something went wrong during the process, Chidi was impossible to regain his position as Devil God any longer. Chidi had been looking forward to the moment for 500 years. If his daughter, Phoenix, made any trouble at this crucial point and Chidi gave punishment, how could Nascent Soul bear thunderbolt rage? In the night sky, thunder was roaring, the strings of the Chinese zither were weaving, and the reincarnation mirror were wrapping Chidi. Di Qing condensed his Spirit Power sneakly and reached out his hands to jump at Su Chenyang, while Phoenix spread out her wings and jumped at Di Qing. Nascent Soul sensed something would go wrong, so he also flew out of the underground palace. In the night sky, Grandmaster’s whole body floated Spirit Power and blood souls flushed the sky. Clouds ruffled and the moon and stars were engulfed by the blood color. Chidi’s snake tail was transforming. When a crash of thunder split the clouds and pressed hard at Chidi, Nascent Soul spread out his Spirit Power and encircled him closely. The Chinese zither revolved in the night sky and bounced back every thunderbolt. Chidi was struggling. To pass such tribulation, even a God could not avoid the pain of that the flesh was torn to shreds. Su Chenyang’s spirit was being peeling off by Di Qing. Phoenix spit out her spirit, her wings extending and her spiritual fire burning along the way. The sky was alight with the flames. Phoenix only hoped Su Chenyang would survive even at the cost of her own life.

“Report! The seal on the suppressing devil pagoda has been broken.”

“What will be, will be.” Shenzong looked at his own grand disciple and made up his mind inwardly. It was time to have Xu Linghe take over the position to be the Head of the Kunlun. Shenzong slipped his spiritual fingers slightly. Then the Kunlun feather flew out, and the void space opened. Top-one divine sword of the Kunlun flew from it. The floating divine device surged in the flowing light. When the spirit light brushed the Sword Hilt, the swirling sword edge glowed radiantly.
