Chapter 648: What is True Tribulation Transcendence

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The team leader immediately yelled at the sight of his team members charging into the sky.

“Stop! Just hold off the Spirit-Engulfing Beasts for me. I can feel that the lightning in the sky is a test I must endure!”

The team leader had a lot of authority within the team, and all the team members immediately followed his instructions and focused their attention on maintaining the defensive spell formation to keep the Spirit-Engulfing Beasts at bay.

Boom!

Thunder rumbled, and a dazzling bolt of lightning fell from the sky before striking the true demon team leader.

The team leader endured the lightning strike with the power of his own body, but his body was slowly becoming charred black as he showed signs of nearing his limit.

“Little Na, does the Soul Formation Stage lightning tribulation in your world consist of forty-nine bolts as well?” An Lin asked as he stroked his chin.

Tina shook her head a little awkwardly. “I’m not sure. This is a natural reaction of the world, and I don’t really know how many bolts of lightning are going to fall.”

Just as they were speaking with one another, the fortieth bolt of lightning struck the true demon team leader.

Boom!

An extremely thick bolt of lightning fell from the sky before striking the true demon team leader on the head.

The team leader’s face was instantly charred black as his eyes rolled over. He then slowly collapsed with black smoke rising from his mouth.

“Team Leader!” All the team members let loose cries of surprise upon seeing this.

Some of the team members had tears streaming down their faces. “Waah… Team Leader, how could you die like this!?”

“The team leader was blasted to death by lightning… It’s over…” Some team members were in despair.

The true demon team leader’s vitality had completely vanished, and the dark clouds in the sky began to dissipate.

An Lin: “… Did he really just die?”

Tina: “…”

The two of them thought they would be witnessing a mighty precedent, but they didn’t think things would end like this.

Tina waved a hand through the air, and pillars of white light shone down upon all the Spirit-Engulfing Beasts.

All the ferocious Spirit-Engulfing Beasts then suddenly self-detonated right before the four true demons.

All the team members stared with dumbstruck expressions at the scenes unfolding before their eyes.

How did the Spirit-Engulfing Beasts just spontaneously detonate?

They hadn’t had a chance to feel joy from being saved yet as their hearts were filled with shock and confusion.

“I guess this is the only thing I can do for the first living being that triggered a tribulation in this world. I’ll make sure to cast some blessings on his family too.” Tina was quite downcast.

On the ground below, one of the team members suddenly thought of something, and he yelled with excitement, “It’s the team leader!”

“Team leader? What does that have to do with the team leader?” The other three team members were confused.

“Team leader must have successfully made his breakthrough and abandoned his body to become a higher level of life form! It was him that used his power to help us. Otherwise, how would you explain the spontaneous deaths of these Spirit-Engulfing Beasts? It must be the team leader!” the team member continued to yell with excitement.

“Then why can’t we see our team leader?” Some team members were still skeptical.

The team member had an explanation prepared, and he said, “It must be because our team leader is living on a higher plane of existence! We’re not powerful enough yet, so of course we can’t see him. It’s just that our team leader decided to help us out before he left. He has probably traveled to an immortal realm of eternal bliss far away from our world!”

All the team members were convinced, and they all began to celebrate the ascension of their team leader.

All their grief and sorrow was instantly wiped away.

An Lin’s lips twitched upon seeing this. Their respected team leader’s body hadn’t even gone cold yet, and they were already in raucous celebratory mode. Some of them were even pulling out alcoholic beverages to propose toasts.

An Lin couldn’t help but make a remark, “That guy has a really powerful charisma coupled with an active imagination. He had the potential to become a politician in this world.”

Tina couldn’t bear to watch any longer, and she waved her hand and teleported the two of them away.

Her action made her attitude quite clear. She didn’t want to watch these retards celebrate anymore.

Within the central city of the True Demon Tribe, news of the ascension of one of their most powerful cultivators spread like wildfire.

He instantly slew several dozen Spirit-Engulfing Beasts and had transcended beyond the limitations of a physical body. He had traveled to a realm of infinite bliss… News like this further spurred on the true demon cultivators, and a fanatical wave of cultivation obsession swept through all nine tribes.

Even Tina didn’t expect that the offhand gesture that she had made would cause such a sensation in this world.

Following the precedent that had been set, more and more people began to follow suit.

Half-Step Soul Formation Stage cultivators became more and more prevalent, and more and more cultivators began to transcend tribulations.

One powerful being after another failed in their tribulation transcendence, and they were all blasted to death by the bolts of tribulation lightning.

Their deaths were then celebrated by their entire tribe, and they were lauded as heroes.

Everyone joined in the celebrations to bid farewell to their “ascended” cultivators.

Every time this happened, Tina and An Lin would slap their foreheads with frustration…

“Little Na, why is the success rate for tribulation transcendence so low? Is there a problem?”

The success rate of cultivators transcending their Soul Formation Stage tribulations was over fifty percent in Tai Chu Continent, so why was it that there was not a single one who had succeeded here?

“Perhaps it’s because it would be the first one to ever be created in this world, so it’s quite difficult.” Tina was quite downcast.

Her expression darkened, and she was quite speechless at how things had progressed.

In contrast, An Lin was trying his hardest to suppress his laughter. Never would he have thought that failure to transcend tribulation would be identified as ascension. All this was thanks to that true demon with the hyperactive imagination. Of course, the other vital factor was Tina’s decision to detonate all those Spirit-Engulfing Demons at once!

It was exactly because of this that Tina was also quite critical of herself.

Three years later, Hong Cang, a general from the True Demon Tribe, began to transcend his tribulation.

On a huge black jade drill ground, tens of thousands of true demons gathered to witness this grand moment.

Bolts of divine lightning struck Hong Cang’s body as his aura became more and more powerful. Ten bolts… twenty bolts… thirty bolts… forty bolts…

As bolt after bolt of divine lightning fell, all the true demons had already raised their cups with excitement in preparation for the very moment when Hong Cang transcended beyond the limitations of a physical body to ascend to a higher realm.

Forty-seven… forty-eight…

“General Hong Cang has endured more bolts of tribulation lightning than anyone else we’ve seen!”

“General Hong Cang is going to be the most powerful cultivator in the Tribulation Transcendence Stage!”

The forty-ninth bolt of divine lightning descended upon the world like a dazzling sword before striking General Hong Cang on the head as a resounding thunderclap boomed throughout heaven and earth.

General Hong Cang let loose an almighty roar, and his aura seemed to have completed a qualitative transformation as it became unimaginably vast and powerful!

In the sky above, the dark clouds and lightning began to dissipate.

Smoke was rising from General Hong Cang’s body, and he had clearly suffered severe injuries. Despite that, his eyes were extremely bright as immensely potent life-force energy exuded from his body.

He looked around at all the spectators while panting heavily.

Tens of thousands of spectators’ eyes widened in shock as if they had seen a ghost.

“Why, why is General Hong Cang still able to move? Shouldn’t he have transcended beyond the limitations of a physical body?”

“The lightning clouds have disappeared, so the lightning tribulation has already ended…”

“Could it be… that he failed his tribulation transcendence?”

“No! General Hong Cang’s aura has become unimaginably powerful, and he has clearly reached a higher level than everyone else. This indicates that his tribulation transcendence was a success!” a true demon offered his opinion.

The true demons weren’t idiots, and they could clearly see that the mighty General Hong Cang had not failed his tribulation transcendence.

Thus, an extremely horrifying notion rushed into their minds…

Clatter…

Some of the true demons’ hands trembled as they dropped the cups in their hands. The crisp, cracking sound of countless cups shattering upon hitting the ground reverberated throughout the plaza. It was as if it was signifying their shattered beliefs…

All of them felt like they were on the verge of throwing up mouthfuls of blood.

“Could it be that this is the real…”

“Shut up!”

Someone yelled.

The truth was too harsh for them to handle.

They had danced on the graves of countless powerful beings that had failed their tribulation transcendences for ten whole years!
