Chapter 2450 - The Origins of the Tribulation of the Five Witherings
Just three days later, Su Yi and company encountered the Tribulation of the Five Witherings once more.
“Strange. The tribulation is showing up more and more frequently,” someone said with a frown.
The others were bewildered, too. The Boundless Battlefield was incomparably enormous. Under ordinary circumstances, it was hard to run into the tribulation more than once in a short time.
But now, the Tribulation of the Five Witherings was appearing more and more often. This was rather out of the ordinary.
“Nine years ago, when the tribulation broke out, it destroyed the Boundless Barrier and destroyed the Outsider Celestial Demons’ home amidst the stars. That forced them into the Boundless Battlefield,” said Su Yi. “Now, the tribulation is raging throughout the Boundless Battlefield, and it’s only increasing in intensity over time. Have you considered why it arose in the first place, and why it keeps sweeping the Boundless Battlefield?”
Everyone was stunned.
It wasn’t that they’d never considered the question before, but that no one had ever reached any definite answers.
This was for one simple reason: the Tribulation of the Five Witherings was born of the power of the natural order. Who could possibly figure out why it had appeared?
Someone couldn't help but ask, “Brother Fuyou, don’t tell me you suspect there's something suspicious about the tribulation’s arrival?”
“That seems entirely possible to me,” Su Yi said casually. “Throughout the ages, no such tribulation has ever appeared, yet it started showing up immediately after Di E sealed the entrance to the Boundless Battlefield, causing massive changes. That’s naturally out of the ordinary.”
Everyone was stunned as a thought rose unbidden to their minds. Don’t tell me there’s more to the Tribulation of the Five Witherings’ arrival than meets the eye?
“Let’s go,” said Su Yi without any further comments on the subject. He planned to leave.
