Chapter 423: My Trump Card Lies In The Sky, Nine Colored Heavenly Tribulation, A Hundred Thousand Cultivators Grand Heavenly Tribulation Party
Chu Kuangren could not retaliate the Boundary Emperors’ attacks at all.
Not even when he had two Emperor Weapons with him.
No matter how strong his foundations were, his cultivation level was still below a Sage. There was only so much power he could draw from the Emperor Weapons. He was no match for the Boundary Emperors at all.
However, even in the face of such a hopeless situation, Chu Kuangren was laughing.
Every cultivator at the scene, including both the Boundary Emperors, was puzzled.
“Has this b*stard lost his mind?”
“Chu Kuangren can’t retaliate at the Boundary Emperors at all. Sure, he may have that weird immortal ability, but so what? It’s so easy for the Boundary Emperors to keep him under control.”
“Why is that b*stard laughing now?”
Everyone was confused.
Even the Sage Rulers felt that something was off.
“What’re you laughing about, little brat?”
Boundary Emperor Chang Kuang sounded a tad angry. To him, Chu Kuangren’s laughter was nothing but a gesture of provocation towards them.
For a person below a Sage, being defeated in the hands of two Boundary Emperors was supposed to be an honor. Alas, not only could they not kill Chu Kuangren, but he was even laughing away! It humiliated the Boundary Emperors.
“Heh, I just find it hilarious how you failed to kill me despite having ganged up on me and even bringing forth the Boundary Emperors! It’s even funnier how you’re so ignorant about the impending deaths that await you all!”
Everyone turned pale at that last statement.
Impending deaths?!
What did he mean?!
Sage Ruler Zhang Guang and the Craggy Ocean Tower Lord immediately sent a group of cultivators to scout the surroundings. Unfortunately, apart from the cloud mist in the sky, they found nothing that was suspicious.
“Chu Kuangren, there’s no use playing pretend anymore.”
“That’s right. With the Boundary Emperors here, it doesn’t matter how many tricks you have left. You’re no match for the Boundary Emperors.”
The Sage Rulers snorted loudly.
Despite that, Chu Kuangren laughed even more in response to their rebuttal. “Boundary Emperors? Even the Boundary Emperors will not be spared by what’s about to come!”
“Nonsense!”
Boundary Emperor Chang Kuang struck a palm out at Chu Kuangren.
The force instantly ruptured everything within Chu Kuangren’s body before it quickly recovered.
Chu Kuangren stood in his place with the Empyrean Neptune’s Trident Halberd in his hand, and his aura was still as strong as before. He stared deadly into all of his opponents on the battlefield.
The cultivators somehow felt a deep sense of terror in them.
“I bet you must be guessing what my ultimate trump card is. Is it my Emperor Technique, or is it this Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation? Perhaps, it’s the two Emperor Weapons I have in my possession, or maybe even this Immortal Body?”
“But wrong. You’re all wrong!”
The cultivators’ fears grew stronger as Chu Kuangren eliminated each possibility of what his trump card could be. It felt like a massacre was soon about to take place.
Each of Chu Kuangren’s strategies was already enough to strike a deep sense of fear within the Sages.
Emperor Techniques, formations, Emperor Weapons…
These had caused more than enough troubles for even the Sage Rulers themselves.
However, Chu Kuangren now revealed that those were not his ultimate trump card after all. Chu Kuangren had yet to unleash his ultimate weapon!
Some of the cultivators found it difficult to believe.
Wielding the Empyrean Neptune’s Trident Halberd, Chu Kuangren pointed it towards the sky, and the battle intent on his body surged. He laughed triumphantly and said, “My true trump card… lies in the sky!”
Chu Kuangren released a burst of domineering aura up into the sky, where the Astonishing Cloud of Seas disbursed.
What greeted the cultivators’ eyes was a sky full of multicolored rays of light.
Then, a mortifying aura descended upon the battlefield, marking every single cultivator present in the battle.
This included the Boundary Emperors!
The cultivators stared into the sky in disbelief.
All they saw was the colorful clouds converging in the sky, forming into a whirlpool-like phenomenon that spanned thousands of kilometers across!
As for the terrifying aura that encroached upon them… It was a Heavenly Dao Aura!
This was… a heavenly tribulation!
“It’s a heavenly tribulation!”
“This is scary! Is this Chu Kuangren’s heavenly tribulation?!”
“Since when did this heavenly tribulation appear? How were we oblivious to it?!”
Everyone was panicking.
Judging from the magnitude of the aura and those peculiar colors, it was no ordinary heavenly tribulation. It must be Chu Kuangren’s heavenly tribulation!
The tribulation clouds spanned thousands of kilometers across and came in many colors.
However, they had never heard about such a form of heavenly tribulation!
What was going on?!
“It’s the Nine Colored Heavenly Tribulation!”
Compared to the average cultivators, the Sage Rulers of the unknown lands had read their fair share of Emperor Scriptures, so they were familiar with such a phenomenon.
“D*mn it. Why is there a Nine Colored Heavenly Tribulation? Legend has it that such a heavenly tribulation has only appeared a couple of times in history. How could Chu Kuangren make such a heavenly tribulation happen?!” The Grand Bottomless Chasm Dweller was horrified.
A heavenly tribulation was a cultivator’s test.
The stronger a cultivator, the more powerful his or her heavenly tribulation would be. Since ancient times, the Nine Colored Heavenly Tribulation was the strongest there was for a cultivator to ascend into a Sage!
Cultivators who passed this deadly tribulation were some of the most feared cultivators in the history of Firmament Star, and they were destined to become an Emperor!
“Nevermind that it’s a Nine Colored Heavenly Tribulation, but this area of tribulation is far too wide! What kind of aura is this?!”
“D*mn it. The Heavenly Dao Aura has even locked onto us. Since when did we become the candidates for the heavenly tribulation as well?!”
The cultivators and Sage Rulers were panicking.
“It’s all because of the mega formation!”
Boundary Emperor Chang Kuang studied his surroundings and observed the dispersing mega formation. “The mega formation previously hid the Heavenly Dao Aura from us. And since we’ve fought with this b*stard, we’re now recognized as the ascension candidates for this heavenly tribulation!”
“In other words, the heavenly tribulation has long appeared in its place. And everyone who’s fought with or attacked Chu Kuangren is now part of this ascension!”
Boundary Emperor Chang Kuang’s voice was already trembling uncontrollably as he spoke of that, let alone the rest of the cultivators.
All who had fought with or attacked Chu Kuangren were now part of the ascension?!
Gulp…
The Sage Rulers swallowed their saliva.
They looked around them only to descend further into fear.
How many people were there?
Several hundred thousands of cultivators!
Chu Kuangren had dragged hundreds of thousands of cultivators to ascend with him!
“No wonder the heavenly tribulation encompasses such a wide perimeter! Chu Kuangren has long planned it all, to use the mega formation to hide it from us and then battle all of us to include us in the ascension list! Crazy! He’s crazy! Can he survive the heavenly tribulation of a hundred thousand cultivators?!”
“That f*cker wants to take all of us down with him!”
The cultivators were mortified by Chu Kuangren’s insane strategy.
The more people participating in a heavenly tribulation, the stronger the test would be. Since ancient times, ascension candidates had always faced the tribulation alone in fear of invoking a devastating tribulation.
Chu Kuangren was an exception.
He had decided to enroll a hundred thousand other cultivators to ascend with him!
Such an event was unprecedented in history!
The cultivators glared at Chu Kuangren. Their eyes were burning with rage, hatred, shock, and an overwhelming sense of fear!
Chu Kuangren, who had just orchestrated the most shocking heavenly tribulation of all time, simply laughed at their reaction. “Whoever steps foot into the Black Heaven Sect today, be it Sage Rulers or Boundary Emperors… you’ve reached a point of no return!”
“Come, everyone! Let’s enjoy this grand heavenly tribulation party!”
