Chapter 417: Three Human Immortals (1/2)

“Let’s go!”

Chen Feng spurred the Longevity Tower’s power to break open space. When he finally re-appeared, he was already within the valley.

Sou! Sou!

After falling out from the Longevity Tower, Ye Tian and Jian Xiaotian sat on the ground. Next, Chen Feng helped them with their recovery. Only after two hours of work did Chen Feng breath a sigh of relief.

Jian Xiaotian’s injuries were the most serious amongst them all. His whole body was covered with wounds. Most importantly, there were countless streams of sword energy coursing through his body. Due to that, any energy Jian Xiaotian recovered would be sliced apart by the streams of sword energy. This issue kept Chen Feng busy for a very long time. Even now, Jian Xiaotian was still struggling to suppress and refine the streams of sword energy within him.

Although Ye Tian was also seriously wounded, his essence was not wounded. Additionally, his cultivation base was deep and there was a high amount of immortal energy around them. It did not take long to keep his situation under control.

As for Lin Shaokun, who had already returned, he had his own unique cultivation technique. He absorbed the surrounding immortal energy and the wounds on his body healed at a much faster rate.

Three days later, Chen Feng left the valley on his own and began hunting on his own. In the next 10 days, tens of loose cultivator and 10 cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace were killed by Chen Feng.

On this very day, Chen Feng had only just returned to the valley when he sensed a massive, soul-shocking, world-encompassing aura descending upon the valley.

“This is Heavenly Tribulation! What is going on? Is someone undergoing tribulation again?” Chen Feng was shocked.

Sou!

Sage Enigma Flame flew swiftly, drawing a line of light through the sky as he left the valley to go deep into Azuremist Mountain.

The dark clouds roiling about in the sky followed suit. Seeing that, it was clear that this was Sage Enigma Flame’s Heavenly Tribulation.

“Master is going to undergo tribulation!” Chen Feng exclaimed.

“Well done! This fellow is going to do it before me as well!” The Beast King quickly flew up to follow Sage Enigma Flame. After knowing about it, Mu Sheng and Old Freak Ming, too, followed.

The entire Azuremist Mountain entered a state of turmoil before quickly becoming even quieter than before.

Hopefully, master can successfully overcome his tribulation. Chen Feng knew that he was incapable of helping with anything. Thus, he simply stood on a mountaintop and watched the tribulation from afar.

Sage Enigma Flame’s Heavenly Tribulation was different from Old Freak Ming’s Heavenly Tribulation.

The first wave of Sage Enigma Flame’s Heavenly Tribulation was the Water Tribulation. Vast amounts of water, in the shape of pillars, descended from the sky to crash into Sage Enigma Flame.

Seeing that, Chen Feng felt concerned. Sage Enigma Flame was cultivating a fire-type cultivation technique. And yet, the first wave was the Water Tribulation. It would appear that Sage Enigma Flame’s Heavenly Tribulation was much stronger compared to Old Freak Ming’s Heavenly Tribulation.

“Powerful! Water counters fire. Old friend, you must endure!” the Beast King shouted.

Shua! Shua! Shua!

Sage Enigma Flame hovered quietly above a great tree, astral flames surging around his body. No matter how hard the tribulation waters hammered him, he did not budge.

It did not take long for the great tree beneath Sage Enigma Flame – with a height of 100 zhang – to be reduced to ash. As for Sage Enigma Flame, he stood on the ground as he continued to endure the tribulation waters.

Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!

Soon enough, explosive sounds rang out from Sage Enigma Flame’s body. The sounds were the results of the collisions between the tribulation waters and the astral flames around Sage Enigma Flame’s body. Water and fire could support one another. However, they could also become intolerant of each other. The two completely opposing forces kept smashing against each other. This was a form of generation and subduing of the two elemental forces.

Thus, despite Sage Enigma Flame’s profound amount of powers, he began trembling after a short amount of time. Clearly, he was already bringing out all his strength for this.

“Tower, you’re up,” Chen Feng said.

“Ha ha ha! I’ve been growing impatient!” The Longevity Tower then transformed into a stream of light and slipped into the cracks created by the Heavenly Tribulation. Then, it began absorbing the tribulation waters.

Just like last time, due to the interference from the Longevity Tower, the might of the Heavenly Tribulation grew stronger. However, the ocean-like amount of tribulation waters was all absorbed by Tower.

The Heavenly Tribulation’s Water Tribulation was finally over. On Sage Enigma Flame’s side, he was covered in wounds. He quickly brought out and took some medicinal pills, wanting to use whatever time he had to recover his strength so that he could better face the next wave of Heavenly Tribulation.

Unexpectedly, time ticked by, but the Heavenly Tribulation did not continue. Neither did it disappear. It was the same situation as Old Freak Ming’s Heavenly Tribulation.

Once again, everyone was stunned. Well, Old Freak Ming was stunned. Mu Sheng, however, was shaken. Finally, he howled, “Is there anymore justice in this world?! Last time, this happened for Old Freak Ming, and now, the same thing is happening for Enigma Flame! So, why did I nearly get killed by mine?! This is simply outrageous! Injustice!”

Mu Sheng had only just howled out when a pillar of flames descended upon him. Shocked, Mu Sheng backed away. The pillar of flames scorched everything in its path, even space. As for the trees, they were all incinerated.

“Sigh! Truly, injustice. All I did was mutter a little and it blasted me.” Mu Sheng was so scared, cold sweat broke out from his body.

“Mu Sheng, don’t mutter nonsense. The laws of Heaven and Earth are closely connected and capable of sense. If you keep spouting nonsense, it might just send a Heavenly Tribulation your way,” Old Freak Ming said.

There was no need for anyone else to tell him about it. Mu Sheng wouldn’t dare say anything else.

Next up was the Fire Tribulation. As Sage Enigma Flame cultivated a fire-type cultivation technique, enduring the tribulation was easier for him. However, after he had overcome the Fire Tribulation, the Heavenly Tribulation paused once more for quite some time.

After the Fire Tribulation was the Devastation Lightning Tribulation. After that was the Astroyang Metal Tribulation. A thick power of Astroyang Metal descended and changed continuously, assuming the forms of blades, swords, spears, lances and various other weapons before shooting towards Sage Enigma Flame.

“It’s Astroyang Metal power! Enigma Flame is truly strong!” They were all shocked.

“Blazing fire burns Heaven!”

Recognizing the Heavenly Tribulation he faced, Sage Enigma Flame’s face contorted as well. Thick flames flowed out from his body to burn the incoming weapons.
