But if it were to increase the power of the demonic tribulation now, wouldn’t the metal ball feel as though it had been threatened and had to compromise?
The ball of liquid metal didn’t like this very much.
However… if it didn’t increase the power of the demonic tribulation, the ‘contaminated person’ would very likely leave the demonic tribulation.
The ball of liquid metal fell deep in thought.
It thought for a short while and decided to continue on with what it had already planned.
This was the Demonic Tribulation Realm, how could the ‘contaminated person’ play tricks here?
She will transcend it if she wants, and if she doesn’t want to, then I’ll force her to transcend it!
As for not wanting to transcend the tribulation and wanting to leave?
Not a chance!
Now that you’ve entered the Demonic Tribulation Realm, you can’t just stop halfway. You’ll either ascend and become a Netherworld Sage or die trying. Do you really think this is your home’s garden or something? It’s not place where you can come and go as you please.
In any case, the power of the demonic tribulation shall remain the same; it shall neither increase nor decrease. If you like it, then you can have fun with it; if you don’t like it, then you will have to put up with it. Obediently wait for this wave of the ‘constant power’ and ‘constant speed’ demonic tribulation to finish and become a Netherworld Sage!
Or so the ball of liquid metal thought to itself.
The only exception would be if the brain of the ‘contaminated person’ went bad, and she gave up resisting, and then lay down to wait to be chopped up by the tribulation lightning, seeking her own death.
However, be it the pract.i.tioners of the main world or the demons of the Netherworld, the purpose of their bitter cultivation was to achieve immortality, so where would you find someone willing to lay down and let themselves be attacked by lightning? One should know that once they died from tribulation lightning, it would be truly the end for them.
Just as the ball of liquid metal was thinking this…
Under the demonic tribulation, Skylark reached out and flung her long hair. Then, she dispersed the thick ice around her body. Whether it was the ice being used for offense or defense, she dispersed all of it.
Then, she took off her daoist robe and stored it away, leaving only ordinary clothes on her person. Those clothes were the kind that you could buy at any ordinary people’s clothing shop—they had no trace of magical energy whatsoever.
Skylark lay down right where she was and waited for the demonic lightning to strike down on her body.
The ball of liquid metal: “…”
F*cking h.e.l.l, does she have a screw loose?
“BOOM~”
Purple demonic lightning fell on Skylark from the sky, scattering what remained of her defenses.
“Aaaah~” Skylark screamed delightfully.
In the end, it was still a demonic tribulation of the Eighth Stage. Even though the ball of liquid metal had deliberately reduced its strength, it still had power around the middle of the Seventh Stage. In addition to that, the special attribute of the ‘demonic tribulation’ dealt bonus damage to creatures of the Netherworld and beings like Skylark who were in a ‘contaminated’ state.
After this wave of the demonic tribulation, Skylark’s body twitched uncontrollably. Currents flowed through her body, and demonic fire invaded it, burning her internal organs. In addition to that, the power of the inner demon also brought Skylark’s soul into a cruel illusion where it was tortured.
“Aaaaah, it huuuuurts,” Skylark screamed while reaching into her pocket to take out her tailor-made phone. She adjusted the angle and then took a few selfies while the demonic tribulation was descending upon her.
It would be a waste not to take a photo of such a beautiful lady in distress, wouldn’t it?
Perhaps I can use this photo to stir Fellow Daoist Thrice Reckless’ feelings in the future.
“BOOM~” Another wave of tribulation lightning fell on her body.
Skylark quickly put away her phone and continued to lay on the ground, quietly while clenching her teeth and bearing the violent strikes of the purple lightning.
The ball of liquid metal: “…”
What in the world is this person trying to do? Why is she doing this? Tell me, WHY?!
She’s simply seeking death, isn’t she?
I’ve never seen someone with such strange reasoning! For her to actually just give up on transcending the tribulation just because it wasn’t fun?! Does she really have to lie down and put away all of her defenses, and even make herself look like she doesn’t want to live?!
She was really seeking death!
How could someone like her survive until now? What was more, she was even able to reach the Seventh Stage Venerable Realm?
[Wait, could it be that she has perceived my existence? Is she testing me?] The ball of liquid metal suddenly thought of a possibility.
But immediately afterward, it denied it.
The woman couldn’t have noticed anything from the beginning to the end; the way it used to enter the Demonic Tribulation Realm was something it had just come up with. Other than its old enemy, White, it was absolutely impossible for others to detect its existence.
“BOOOOM~”
The demonic tribulation remained at the same level, and once again exploded on Skylark’s body with the same amount of power.
Skylark had already been struck by lightning all over her body, and her long blue hair was showing signs of getting burnt.
Demonic fire also accompanied the wave of the demonic tribulation, which made her directly pa.s.s out…
But even so, Skylark didn’t resist.
As such, she was now curled up, lying on the ground, neither resisting, nor defending, attacking, avoiding, and healing. She had completely given up on saving herself.
If this were to go on, there would only be one end for her––death!
[This person can’t possibly be actually seeking death, right?] The ball of liquid metal was inexplicably upset.
This person was related to its grand plan. If she were to die, it would have to look for another suitable ‘contaminated person’, and n.o.body knew how long that would take.
Additionally, time was something it was short on now. Its counterpart’s state was getting worse and worse, so it didn’t have much time left.
What should it do?
Did it really have to compromise and increase the power output of the demonic tribulation to satisfy the ‘contaminated person’? Reigniting her motivation and getting her to take the tribulation seriously?
