Chapter 983: Chapter 349: Tribulation Crossing, Possession (Part 3)
The bizarre runes engraved on the Demon Shield flickered madly, blood light overflowing, yet unable to withstand the terrifying power of the Thunder Tribulation. The rune’s brilliance gradually dimmed, ultimately like a shattered mirror, with cracks rapidly spreading.
Immediately then, the Demon Shield exploded with a bang, the powerful impact like a raging tsunami, instantly engulfing the Fish Eagle Chief. The Fish Eagle Chief let out a muffled groan, his entire body slammed as though hit by a heavy hammer, uncontrollably sent flying backward.
His body traced a fierce arc in mid-air, crashing heavily into a distant giant stone mountain. Under this violent impact, the stone mountain instantly shattered, debris flying like raindrops everywhere. The Fish Eagle Chief’s body was deeply embedded in the mountain, fresh blood spewing from his mouth, staining a large swath of the stone red.
At this moment, his breath was weak and chaotic, multiple fractures in his bones, his meridians like shattered spider webs, spiritual power frantically raging within his body. His skin was covered with charred traces, his clothes tattered, looking extremely miserable:
"Damn it, at least I held on!"
The Fish Eagle Chief grimaced in pain, using both hands and feet to crawl out of the ruins, then looked up at the sky.
In the sky, the tribulation clouds gradually dissipated, strands of Sweet Rain descended from the heavens. This Sweet Rain contained the pure spiritual qi of heaven and earth, for those heavily injured in tribulation crossing, it was a superb healing sacred object, and also an excellent opportunity to reshape the body.
The Fish Eagle Chief watched the falling Sweet Rain, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes. He forced his weak body to operate his cultivation technique, attempting to use the power of this Sweet Rain to restore his injuries. Thinking in his heart, as long as he survived this tribulation, once his injuries healed, he would become a powerful figure once more.
However.
At that moment.
A sudden change occurred.
Seeing the Sweet Rain in mid-air lightly tremble with a buzz, then astonishingly shifted direction in unison, speeding rapidly towards the west.
In the west.
A massive swirling vortex of suction gathered.
The Sweet Rain was entirely absorbed within:
"This is...."
The Fish Eagle Chief paused in shock.
He’s lived for countless millennia, yet it’s the first time he’s seen someone capable of snatching another’s tribulation-crossing Sweet Rain: "Seeking death!"
The Fish Eagle Chief’s eyes slightly narrowed.
About to rise in anger.
At this moment.
Focused carefully.
Only to see the grass, flowers, and trees within several dozen miles to the west all withered in unison, vast amounts of life essence power were plundered, entering the vortex in mid-air.
Moreover.
As time passed.
He realized that even his mana essence blood was rapidly leaving his body, being devoured by the vortex. The Fish Eagle Chief paused for a moment, then immediately understood what was happening, not only did he not resist, he willingly allowed this suction to drag him into the western vortex:
"Heh heh."
"This seat has been sealed for years, never thought upon unsealing, I’d encounter a once-in-a-millennium Body of Ten Thousand Spirits, very nice indeed, hahaha, this body, this seat shall gladly accept!"
The Body of Ten Thousand Spirits, innately connected with the spiritual qi of all things, possessing endless potential and special abilities, for the Demon Venerable Residual Soul, it’s virtually a dream artifact of perfection. Right now, the Demon Venerable Residual Soul unhesitatingly abandoned the heavily injured, near-dead physical form of the Fish Eagle Chief, transformed into a black ghostly light, darting towards Yongxuan at lightning speed, plotting to possess Yongxuan, and occupy this Body of Ten Thousand Spirits.
.....
White Tiger Tribe.
Inside the consultation hall.
The elders were discussing the final matters of the grand festival three days hence, suddenly hearing the rolling thunder god, each changed their expression, rushed out the mountain gate, turning to look, only to see the phenomenon originating from the direction of the Fish Eagle Tribe.
The White Tiger Grand Elder’s pupils contracted:
"Chief, judging by this spectacle.... it seems to be the Golden Core Thunder Tribulation!"
Someone from the Fish Eagle Tribe has successfully broken through to the Golden Core Stage!
This is undoubtedly a disaster for them.
For a cultivator.
Even if you have dozens of Purple Mansions, but when a Golden Core appears, it’s merely like an ant trying to stop a chariot.
The White Tiger Chief also showed a shocked expression, prior to this, the Fish Eagle Tribe hadn’t revealed any information, where exactly did their Core Formation Spiritual Object come from?
The White Tiger Chief regretted inwardly.
Had they known earlier.
They should’ve decisively eradicated the Fish Eagle Tribe quickly.
Right now.
He could only pray and hope the other party couldn’t succeed in tribulation crossing.
The Grand Elder beside him slightly narrowed his eyes, boldly suggested:
"Chief, if anything, one is never done, why don’t we attack now, even if the other party successfully crosses the tribulation, there will be a brief period of weakness, which would be our golden chance to turn the tide!
"It’s too late."
The White Tiger Chief shook his head.
The three consecutive Thunder Tribulations in the sky ensued.
Sweet Rain then fell.
This indicates that the people of the Fish Eagle Tribe succeeded in crossing the tribulation, stepping into the Golden Core Stage.
The Grand Elder saw this and felt worried:
"Chief, what should we do now?!"
The White Tiger Chief took a deep breath, still relatively calm:
"Pass on the orders, from today onwards, close the mountain gate, without my instruction, no one may enter or exit!"
For now, they can only lie low.
With the Tier Four Array protecting, even if a Golden Core comes, they can resist somewhat.
In a few decades.
Their tribe may well cultivate a Golden Core!
...
Celestial Wolf Tribe.
Seeing the Thunder Tribulation disperse from Fish Eagle Mountain, the Chief of the Celestial Wolf also contracted his pupils, and the few elders beside him exchanged glances, saying:
"Chief, if there is deep resentment with the Fish Eagle Tribe, it’s the White Tiger Tribe. Since the Fish Eagle Tribe was the first to show a Golden Core, maybe we should lower our heads first, that way, if they want to establish their power, they would only target the White Tiger Tribe. We could use this opportunity to recuperate, utilizing the resources of Kunlun Mini World, in the next few decades may even cultivate a Golden Core."
The Chief of the Celestial Wolf, however, didn’t speak.
After watching Fish Eagle Mountain for a while, he said:
"Issue the order, from today onwards, close the mountain gate, no one may enter or exit without my instruction!"
