Chapter 895 - The Ultimate Tribulation (II) (2/2)

The Celestial Immortal Tribulation had dissipated and weakened inside his Sea of Consciousness. Although it had given him immense power, it was not fatal. He was extremely surprised to discover that he seemed to have a hope of crossing it. If he crossed the tribulation, he could leave his soul in the fourth layer of the vacuum, and then he would be a true Omnipotent Sage.

Thinking about this cheered him up. A cryptic light flashed through his Primary Primordial Spirit, and turned into a Tree of Seven Wonders, sending out rays of auspicious light. Just like the Tree of Seven Wonders above Cundi, it blocked the surrounding tribulation.

“Hmph. Of course, there was something I hadn’t considered!” The second it turned into a Tree of Seven Wonders, Cundi’s primordial spirits bellowed violently. A Highest Grade Celestial Devil might have had a broad Divine Sense, but what about the Tree of Seven Wonders? That was Cundi’s most guarded secret. As long as Cundi had his meticulously placed primordial spirit fragments, he could practice. These Highest Grade Celestial Devils might have been the highest grade of Heavenly Devils, but they had no way of learning the Tree of Seven Wonders’ skills. So, as soon as Zhou Bao produced the tree, he had exposed himself as a target. Cundi’s primordial spirits immediately found which direction to go. They had churned, and instead of going for the other “Primary Primordial Spirits”, they went straight for the Tree of Seven Wonders and surrounded it. But that was all they did. Cundi’s primordial spirit was not like before when it could immediately engulf things, rather it confronted the tree.

This was not because of his good intentions, rather he had some misgivings. Zhou Bao’s primordial spirits were crossing the tribulation, they would have to endure the trials of the tribulation. Zhou Bao would not be one of the Celestial Immortals lying in wait to cause him trouble, unaffected by tribulation and allowing him to go all out. He was not like that. He could trigger the Celestial Immortal Tribulation in his Sea of Consciousness, and attack him himself at the same time as the tribulation. Adding to that the band of men eyeing him like a tiger watching its prey, he would have some difficulty in dealing with it all. Cundi could not act rashly, he could only wait and see what happened.

Zhou Bao was relieved to see that Cundi had some misgivings. In fact, he had been forced into a corner by the sudden tribulation. There was no way out of it. He might as well go for it and start crossing the Celestial Immortal Tribulation.

“Time to make you proud!” In the Immortal Realm, Cundi gave a cold snort of laughter as he watched from the depths of the hollow.

The Celestial Immortal Tribulation had created a huge hole between the heavens and earth and the Immortal Realm. The gloomy hollow was visible to the naked eye. It was both terrifying and awe-inspiring.

That’s right, terrifying and awe-inspiring.

The Immortal Realm practitioners were not seeing the hollow for the first time. In fact, most of them had traveled through it before. But they had never seen it like it was now. They felt its horror. Inside the awe-inspiring emptiness that was the hollow lurked a completely unconcealed killing intent.

The killing intent of the Celestial Immortal Tribulation and the Dharma Ending Tribulation paled in comparison to what they were now experiencing.

All of a sudden, a dazzling beautiful multi-hued radiance erupted from the hollow and streaked downwards.

A chilling light emanated from Cundi’s eyes. “Is this your first attack? Well, come on then!” The Tree of Seven Wonders in his hands shuddered, and thousands of golden lotuses emerged to face the Five-colored Divine Light.

Papapapapapapa!

Thousands of golden lotuses could not withstand the Five-colored Divine Light and exploded. More than half were wiped out clean. The rest could barely withstand the attack.

“Cundi, you have deteriorated considerably!” A fierce voice could be heard in the hollow. “Even if I let you come fully back to life, do you think you could still have the same power you had before?”

“You’re not necessarily that mighty!” Cundi laughed coldly. “Even under layers of restraints, this is the most power you can release. You can’t deal even with me. Why bother pretending you’re so powerful?”

“Hmph! Let’s see whether you can actually cross this tribulation!” The voice in the hollow grew faint, and everything turned quiet again.

The Tree of Seven Wonders was damaged, but not entirely. Cundi remained unharmed, but he seemed intent on maintaining the status quo. He was waiting for the tribulation to pass.

Of course, he understood that things would not go that smoothly. The attack of the Five-colored Divine Light was just the beginning. The next attack would be even more fierce.

The calm in the hollow did not last long. As expected, there was a change. A white jade Ruyi Scepter appeared from a gap in the hollow and crashed straight onto Cundi’s Tree of Seven Wonders.

He grimaced as the Tree of Seven Wonders in his hand swayed from one side to another, the lotuses flashing. They did not appear to be actively attacking the Five-colored Divine Light. Instead, they took a defensive stance.

All that could be seen was the 30 centimeter long white jade Ruyi Scepter. There was no scattered light, and it did not have much power, either. It crashed downwards, unimpeded by the multitude of golden lotuses. Every golden lotus that it crashed into was being smashed to pieces, until Cundi began to rustle the Tree of Seven Wonders in desperation.

Boom!

The Ruyi Scepter was sent flying, but it was not damaged in the slightest. Unfortunately, he was not able to keep the tree completely stable, and it took another beating from the Ruyi Scepter.

The perfectly integrated Qi Power was immediately bogged down. A fine, cryptic sword light flashed lightly on Cundi’s forehead. A short time later, Zhou Bao’s Primary Primordial Spirits, which were in the process of crossing the Celestial Immortal Tribulation, seemed to be reacting to something. They moved violently. The tiny Primary Primordial Spirits suddenly expanded in size. Seeing this, Cundi’s primordial spirit began to undulate as if it were about to engulf them. But suddenly a sword light flashed through the Sea of Consciousness. In one blow it split Cundi’s primordial spirit right open.
