Chapter 296 : Ascension Tribulation
Chapter 296: Ascension Tribulation
【Host, be careful. These are Tribulation Rings. Each layer of Tribulation Rings will double the power of the Heavenly Tribulation.】
【Normally, these kinds of Tribulation Rings only appear in Heavenly Tribulations above the Immortal Realm.】
Upon seeing these Tribulation Rings, the System immediately warned Li Tianwei.
Li Tianwei showed not the slightest emotional fluctuation upon seeing this, as though the terrifying Heavenly Tribulation before him, with layer upon layer stacked together, was something utterly ordinary.
“What’s going on? Hurry up and retreat.”
When the Heavenly Dao of the cultivation world saw that Li Tianwei was about to ascend after obtaining the Heavenly Blessing, it had actually been happy for a moment.
Yet unexpectedly, a Heavenly Tribulation had appeared during the process of Ascension, and this time, the tribulation was so terrifying that even the Heavenly Dao was afraid upon seeing it.
Most terrifying of all was that even though it was currently the Heavenly Dao of the cultivation world and its power had long since recovered, despite being the one that governed Heavenly Tribulations, it could not influence this Ascension Tribulation in the slightest.
“It’s out of control. No, no, there’s an existence of an even higher level than me controlling all of this.”
“Is it the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal Realm?”
The Heavenly Dao could not help but wonder.
“No, I have to help him.”
Thinking of this, the Heavenly Dao of the cultivation world began augmenting Li Tianwei’s power.
It was also at this moment that the Heavenly Dao of the cultivation world seemed to sense something, but it felt that it was already too late.
In an instant, the Heavenly Dao of the cultivation world froze, and immediately afterward, its consciousness was severed, while the power it had originally used to augment Li Tianwei completely disappeared as well.
Even the Heavenly Dao of an entire world found it difficult to resist such a sudden change.
That alone showed what kind of existence was behind this disturbance.
As for Li Tianwei, he had no idea what the Heavenly Dao had just done. At present, he was already applying buffs to himself.
“Come! Undying Body of the Sacrificial Dao.”
“Starfall, spirit and flesh fall together……”
Without the slightest hesitation, Li Tianwei activated every secret technique he possessed. These could no longer be considered simple secret techniques.
In order to make all his secret techniques compatible with his own body, thereby allowing him to squeeze out even greater power.
Without a doubt, Li Tianwei’s current secret techniques no longer targeted merely his flesh and blood, or anything else individually.
His current secret techniques could be said to squeeze power from every aspect, including spirit and flesh, Manifestation……
Every time something collapsed and yielded a bit of power, Li Tianwei’s aura grew heavier by a degree.
And this was merely the beginning.
“One thousand five hundred Dao Intents, open for me, squeeze them dry.”
Without the slightest hesitation, Li Tianwei began a new round of extraction from his own Dao Intents.
A Manifestation appeared behind Li Tianwei.
Countless points of starlight illuminated everything, and immediately afterward, those illuminated stars shattered apart, completely transforming into streams of light.
Then came one star after another.
Just like that, the half-extreme number of Dao Intents were completely squeezed dry by Li Tianwei.
Rumble, the aura throughout Li Tianwei’s entire body had already undergone a complete transformation.
At this moment, one could even see a Circular Radiance rising behind Li Tianwei’s head……
Li Tianwei, with all his power unleashed, had been waiting for this day for a very long time.
What was Ascension? It was the answer countless cultivators yearned to obtain.
Eternal strength, freedom and ease throughout the world, or would it still be just like the cultivation world!
Bang……
It was also at this moment that a muffled sound came from within the Heavenly Tribulation.
The surrounding Tribulation Rings, stacked in who knew how many layers, began revolving, while countless people throughout the cultivation world sensed that all Spiritual Energy was rushing toward a single location.
It was precisely this strange change in the Spiritual Energy that caused some cultivators to probe toward the location where the Spiritual Energy was converging.
Yet with merely a single glance, they saw the answer.
“Someone is undergoing an Ascension Tribulation.”
That was right. With nothing more than a fleeting glimpse, these cultivators obtained this answer.
Crack……
The Ascension Tribulation that had been suppressed for so long finally reached its critical point.
In an instant, heaven and earth completely lit up. Beyond that, countless cracks appeared across the entire sky, as though it could not withstand such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation and was already showing signs of collapse.
This Ascension Tribulation was unlike any other. It did not accumulate power as usual, nor did it descend layer by layer.
This Ascension Tribulation would strike only once, and that single strike alone was enough to destroy everything.
Rumble……
With a deafening boom, there were no heaven-shaking special effects, only an eruption of energy pushed to the absolute extreme.
A terrifying bolt of lightning flashed within the tribulation clouds, then instantly descended directly upon Li Tianwei’s position.
“Good timing.”
“One tribulation will decide everything.”
Li Tianwei took a deep breath. Grand Unified Field, Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity……
Every power Li Tianwei possessed was completely unleashed at this moment.
The lightning that illuminated everything between heaven and earth completely engulfed Li Tianwei, while the Tribulation Rings collapsed one after another.
Under such terrifying energy, even the System, which had originally been waiting anxiously within Li Tianwei’s consciousness, felt that its consciousness was being separated from Li Tianwei’s.
【Host, Host! You’d better not let anything happen to you!】
Engulfed by the lightning, the System shouted as well, completely unaware of what time it was or what the current situation had become.
Perhaps the System’s shouting truly had some effect, for from deep within the lightning came a suppressed, muffled voice.
“System, shut up.”
In the past, upon hearing these words, the System would definitely have given Li Tianwei the cold shoulder for a while, but now it was different. This voice sounded exceptionally wonderful.
“Come! Come! Rise for me.”
Li Tianwei raised both hands, and the starlight Dao Intents that he had previously squeezed dry appeared once again.
However, this time, their aura was clearly somewhat different, rumble……
A terrifying attractive force, along with an eruption of extreme mass……
In an instant, the lightning descending from the Heavenly Tribulation actually twisted together.
At this moment, it even seemed to begin struggling, trying to break free from the gravitational pull within the starlight behind Li Tianwei.
Extreme mass, extreme gravity. Under the Four Fundamental Forces, all power became a data-like existence.
For Li Tianwei, there was nothing that could not be resisted, so long as it had not reached the mass of his Manifestation.
One thousand five hundred kinds of Dao Intent, each one represented the stellar power of one of his Fission Golden Cores.
The Nascent Soul Realm had been the stage in which he condensed them into solidity, and now that he was about to step into the Spirit Transformation Realm, he would thoroughly Condense the Spirit and Transform It into a Manifestation.
Rumble……
Amid a mournful cry, endless starlight transformed into a galaxy, and a Manifestation resembling an entire condensed universe emerged around Li Tianwei.
The mighty power of Spirit Transformation, the power to turn illusion into reality, revealed itself.
At this moment, Li Tianwei once again underwent a new transformation.
The originally overwhelming Ascension Tribulation had already become insignificant before Li Tianwei’s sudden transformation.
“Open.”
Li Tianwei swept his hand toward the Heavenly Tribulation. Stars filled the sky and flowed, while countless stars that had evolved into reality streaked across the heavens and crashed directly into it.
Under the gravitational force produced by that mass, even light found it difficult to escape its power.
And reaching this point also meant that Li Tianwei had successfully transcended the tribulation.
“Spirit Transformation, complete.”
In less than two years, Hundred-Day Foundation, Nascent Soul in one year, Spirit Transformation in two years.
With such Heavenly Talent, calling him the number one Spiritual Root above the heavens and beneath the earth would not have been an exaggeration.
