1367 One Couldnt Afford to Offend Him (1/2)

”Heavenly Tribulation?”

Xu Que was taken aback. He had already detected that familiar aura.

Boundless heavenly might descended forcefully from the sky. It was lofty, boundless, and sought to subdue all beings.

However, Xu Que was already used to heavenly might, and not just heavenly might, even Heavenly Tribulation.

Purple Cloud Heavenly Tribulation and Ancient Catastrophes were nothing out of the ordinary for him, and he didn't find them challenging or difficult.

”Hee, hee, I assumed that you would do something great, yet after this great disturbance, you have attracted just a wisp of an Ancient Catastrophe,” Xu Que said as he chuckled with an indolent look on his face before he stuck his finger in his ear and expressed his disdain.

Yi Fang laughed coldly and said, ”Elder Xu, why don't you take a clear look at it. It's two wisps, not one.”

He pointed at the sky with his finger.

Two thick golden lightning bolts were among the raging clouds and they seemed like faintly discernible giant dragons among black clouds. They were making threatening gestures from time to time and emanated a boundless aura.

The great heavenly might could make people feel as if two giant dragons' eyes were glaring at them and make their hearts shiver with fear.

Xu Que laughed and spoke again, ”Huh? So it's really two wisps of an Ancient Catastrophe. I'm really scared to death! Ha, ha, ha.”

”Why are you laughing?” Yi Fang frowned and shouted angrily.

In his eyes, Elder Xu shouldn't be having this reaction after the appearance of an Ancient Catastrophe.

”It seems as if he doesn't understand the might of an Ancient Catastrophe,” a talented youth of the Divine Farmer Clan stepped forward and spoke with Yi Fang.

Yi Fang shook his head. There were only two explanations for Elder Xu's reaction after seeing the Ancient Catastrophe.

He either didn't understand the Ancient Catastrophe's terrifying might or he didn't fear an Ancient Catastrophe at all.

But didn't the second explanation have greater odds?

It was unlikely!

Cultivators were afraid of Heavenly Tribulations and respected them. In general, if a cultivator ran into a Purple Cloud Heavenly Tribulation, it would be difficult for him to survive unless he was a genius with a great aptitude.

As for Heavenly Tribulations at the rank of an Ancient Catastrophe? They were feared by all cultivators.

Those were the most commonly seen Heavenly Tribulations in the Gods' era, and it was rumored that they could kill even Gods and Buddhas. In the Gods War, innumerable Gods and Buddhas had been killed by the Ancient Catastrophe.

The higher one's stage, the more afraid one would be of an Ancient Catastrophe. This tribulation was especially used to kill Gods and Buddha, but its might still wouldn't become too low just because its target was at a low stage. Even if one was at a low stage, the Ancient Catastrophe's might would still be the most terrifying among all kinds of Heavenly Tribulations.

This was why no matter what one's stage, one would still have a high chance to die in an Ancient Catastrophe, and even if one survived, one would suffer heavy injuries.

The Sage Sect's powerful Divine Being of Taoist Fetus was the person with the best aptitude during the recent past, and when he advanced into the Heaven Celestial Stage he ran across a wisp of an Ancient Catastrophe.

At that time, he was protected by many Almighty beings, all kinds of Celestial Artifacts, and he possessed many high-grade spiritual elixirs. The Divine Being of Taoist Fetus revealed his whole power, yet the outcome was still shocking.

The four limbs of the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus had been destroyed by the Heavenly Tribulation, and his whole body had been broken apart. Only his upper body was left.

However, he obviously survived and became stronger than before.

But this was still a special case. After all, he was the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus and other cultivators weren't on a par with him.

Now, it seemed like Elder Xu had trained his body, but even if it was the case, so what? Was he on a par with the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus?

All people were equal in the face of a Heavenly Tribulation.

”If your stage level and aptitude were high and great, this only means that you will face a Heavenly Tribulation with a more terrifying might.”

Moreover, it seemed like Elder Xu's body was sick, and he couldn't release his full power. This was why, even if he didn't die in the face of the Ancient Catastrophe's two wisps, he would lose a layer of skin, and anyone here would be able to easily kill him.

This was why Yi Fang believed that the reason why Elder Xu wasn't afraid of the Ancient Catastrophe was most likely that he didn't know the might of an Ancient Catastrophe.

After all, most of the Heaven Continent's cultivators didn't know the Ancient Catastrophe, while the Divine Farmer Clan's secret art was quite precious and they rarely cast it.

It was only after the Sage Sect's Divine Being of Taoist Fetus faced an Ancient Catastrophe that many knowledgeable old men took out ancient records and recounted the history of the golden Heavenly Tribulation.
