Chapter 779: The Hysterical Dance Of The Demons (1/2)

The Golden Cicada Master was still dressed like a young monk as he positioned himself in the ht e to recede

In the void above his head, the shadow of a giant cicada shi+iant cicada was slightly bigger than that of even the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain

The giant fored with the freedo and possessed an overwhel Pan, Lin Feng and Zhu Hongere not too distressed by the aura What triggered their strange reactions were that there seeiant cicada It gave off a dreary feeling that could envelope people, even Lin Feng and the others, in a haze of great terror that ca was familiar with this concept of power He had experienced the very same aura from the black chess piece of the Vipralopa Chess Gay of the Power-Destroying Catastrophe, of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man!

Even this de Catastrophe

Lin Feng watched the Golden Cicada Master in silence as he listened carefully to the chirping of the cicadas

When this demon joined the Great Thunderclap Temple to practice Buddhist mantras, the Vairocana Sutra had already been lost Even after the e the remnants of the Sutra, the outline of the Sutra - the Vairocana Zen Pal This was the reason why his mastery of the Buddhist mantras remained at the peak of the third-level Golden For to take the next step

If he took this step, he would have face the phenoe cultivators in apprehension - the Five Decays Of Heaven and Man, the Power-Destroying Catastrophe!

All man would perish in the end, in one way or another, and their fates and destinies would return into the earth Death was the great fear of- the devastation of the world, and the end of all fates and destinies

Over the journey of his cultivation, Lin Feng attained greater a understanding of the cycle of fates and destinies and corrected a few of his s in the past and understood a lot more than he used to

Even third-level ie cultivators were helpless when faced with the Power-Destroying Catastrophe, the Five Decays of Heaven and Man Once the Catastrophe hit them, they would be struck down on the spot

The Greater World on the path of the Oa, the end of times, the arrival of the apocalypse - nobody could escape this fate

The birth of destiny-level ic treasures was one of the solutions in the perennial struggle to find a way out A great number of powerful cultivators also put in a lot of effort to increase their personalthe bitter ocean and reach the paradise on the other side

As hue, and as de dee, the path onas the same In order to raise their level of h the Three Tribulations of Destiny

The legendary tribulations of the Collapse of Destiny and the Apocalypse consisted of three parts In the first stage, all beings that had life and spiritual energy and everything that was birthed by the destiny of the world had to accoreat tribulation of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man

This stage was called the Alpha Destiny Tribulation, and was also known as the Power-Destroying Catastrophe, the Five Decays of Heaven and Man

This phenoinated from the most mysterious sea of the Grand Celestial Seven Seas - the Death Sea

The Death Sea was quite unlike its counterparts such as the Starry Sea, the Void Sea and the Ying Sea The other seas had a fixed geographical location, but the Death Sea was nowhere to be found but seemed to be omnipresent at the sae cultivators had reached a certain level of e, they could attempt to communicate with the Death Sea Once co an instance of the Power-Destroying Catastrophe upon the Catastrophe meant that there was no other way for the cultivator to defend hiic treasures as well as the Power-Destroying Catastrophe was targeting him and him alone There was no way he could use self-destructive methods to overco Catastrophe there meant that the cultivator could only rely on his own personal mastery to resist it Failure simply meant he would pass into the void on the spot

Even if he was able to pass the test of the Power-Destroying Catastrophe, all was not yet fine and dandy The Five Decays of Heaven and Man would hang around his neck like an albatross, and would cause hiony He would have to search for exotic items and other esoteric methods to beat this malady and recover

If he was able to resist the first instance of the Power-Destroying Catastrophe, it could be said that he had reached the Cardinal Tribulations Beginning Stage

The e was that this cultivator was able to resist and survive his first instance of the Power-Destroying Catastrophe, or even several more The process of repeated recovery and the survival after every instance of the Power-Destroying Catastrophe constituted the tough journey of personal develope However, he would not be able to go beyond this stage if he was unable to recover by himself and required external help This cultivator would be able to repeatedly increase his level of aps in hishis foundations till the point where he was beyond the Cardinal Tribulations Beginning Stage

The Cardinal Tribulations Beginning Stage could be said to be a stage, but it was more like a journey or a process This path could only be taken by those who had reached a certain level of the third-level ie to do so Once they had reached a point where they no longer needed external help to recover fro Catastrophe, they would have officially coe and they would ascend into the Cardinal Tribulations Final Stage

Even cultivators in the Cardinal Tribulations Final Stage would still suffer fro Catastrophe and there was still a limit to the number of times they could attempt this tribulation However, if they were not coed in the process, they could recover by themselves in a relatively shorter period of time

At this point, these cultivators could channel the Power-Destroying Catastrophe theo through the agony of the Power-Destroying Catastrophe the it This was the reason why the Cardinal Tribulations Final Stage was also known as the Vipralopa Stage

There were two main criteria to detere Firstly, this individual would be able to recover by hi Catastrophe Secondly, this cultivator would be able to channel the Power-Destroying Catastrophe hi move

This was the reason why cultivators in the Vipralopa Stage could have greatly varying levels of mastery There were different mantras and foundational standards in the first place, and the nu Catastrophes that they could take were different as well Some people could only sustain a handful, but others could survive a lotthe Power-Destroying Catastrophe as an offensive th as well
