Chapter 234: Tribulation Failure! Death!
One month later!】
Having made all your preparations, you began undergoing tribulation.】
In order to avoid affecting Chen Shu and Xuanyuan Tianji, you chose to leave the deserted island and begin your tribulation above the Dead Sea.】
Meanwhile, Chen Shu and Xuanyuan Tianji stood at the edge of the deserted island, watching you from afar over the Dead Sea.】
Both of them could not help but break out in a cold sweat for you.】
Very soon, the Heavenly Venerable Realm tribulation lightning began surging toward you.】
As for the tribulation lightning of the Heavenly Venerable Realm, also known as the Nine Tribulations Realm, you paid it no mind at all.】
The only use this tribulation lightning had for you was to temper your Divine Power, Heavenslaying.】
Of course, that was only outside the Dead-Land Canglan Realm. If this had been inside the Dead-Land Canglan Realm, the Nine Tribulations Realm tribulation lightning would not have been this weak.】
Ten days later!】
You had successfully finished enduring the tribulation lightning of the Nine Tribulations Realm.】
At this moment, your cultivation had officially stepped into the Heavenly Venerable Realm.】
Although you had broken through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm, there was not a trace of joy on your face, because you knew the most critical moment was about to arrive.】
You saw an even more terrifying aura beginning to gather above your head.】
Not long afterward, when Chen Shu on the distant deserted island sensed this aura, her face turned deathly pale.】
It was not as though Chen Shu had never seen you undergo tribulation before, but she had never once felt such a terrifying aura.】
At the same time!】
Qingxuan Immortal Domain, Heavenly Emperor City, Upper City.】
Inside a sealed space, a figure suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a sinisterly handsome face.】
This aura... Is someone undergoing tribulation?”】
Interesting. A Tribulation Stage cultivator actually has such a terrifying aura!”】
WHOOSH—】
The sinister man instantly vanished from the sealed space.】
Above the Dead Sea, the tribulation clouds above your head grew darker and darker, as if they were about to swallow you whole at any moment.】
BOOM—】
While you were fully concentrating, the first Chaos Lightning Tribulation suddenly descended upon you.】
After the Chaos Lightning Tribulation struck your body, it continued pouring downward, blasting a bottomless black hole straight through the Dead Sea around you.】
Immediately afterward, an aura of destruction spread outward from you in all directions.】
In the distance, Chen Shu and Xuanyuan Tianji, who were watching you undergo tribulation from the deserted island, also realized that something was wrong.】
Xuanyuan Tianji decisively acted and blocked that aura.】
I didn’t expect that even from this far away, it could still reach the island.”】
Xuanyuan Tianji looked at the figure in the distance being swallowed by the Chaos Lightning Tribulation and sighed inwardly.】
Chen Shu asked Xuanyuan Tianji worriedly,】
Can he succeed?”】
When Xuanyuan Tianji heard that, she did not respond. Instead, she kept staring at you without blinking.】
Elsewhere, at the edge of the Qingxuan Immortal Domain, after sensing the first tribulation lightning descend, the sinister man’s expression grew even more excited.】
Food!!!”】
Above the Dead Sea, you had now already withstood three bolts of Chaos Divine Lightning.】
But only you yourself knew that this time, you were probably truly finished. You would not be able to hold on.】
As you looked at the fourth bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning gathering, you threw back your head and let out an angry roar.】
However, you had not expected a voice to actually answer you.】
What a truly powerful body!!!”】
The moment you heard that voice, you abruptly turned your head toward where it came from.】
You knew that this voice absolutely could not have been that damned Heavenly Dao replying to you.】
Your gaze swept over, and you discovered a figure that filled you with terror.】
It’s actually him! How is this possible?”】
You had never expected the newcomer to be that eerie, sinister man at the Immortal Lord Realm.】
The moment you saw him appear, your heart sank into despair.】
Now, whether or not you succeeded in the tribulation, you were going to die.】
If the tribulation failed, you would die beneath the tribulation lightning. If the tribulation succeeded, then although you could survive through the Protection of the Heavenly Dao, you would only be clinging to life.】
BOOM—】
You had no time to think further. The fourth tribulation lightning descended, and you immediately began resisting it.】
Seeing this, the sinister man in the distance could not help frowning.】
He knew that outsiders could not interfere while someone was undergoing tribulation. Otherwise, the power of the tribulation lightning would increase a hundredfold and attack the outsider as well.】
Left with no choice, the sinister man could only guard the surroundings and wait for your tribulation to end.】
Very soon, you successfully withstood the fourth tribulation lightning.】
During this time, your mind raced in search of a way to break out of this deadlock.】
In the end, you really did think of one, provided that the tribulation succeeded.】
After succeeding in the tribulation, you would immediately use Taixu Dragon Traversal to leave the Qingxuan Realm and preserve your foundation first.】
Although you possessed the Protection of the Heavenly Dao, you could not guarantee that this time the other party would not cripple you first.】
If you only tried to flee after being crippled, then once you became a cripple, there would be no way for you to rise again.】
BOOM—】
Very soon, the fifth bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning descended.】
At this moment, from the corner of your eye, you glanced toward the distant deserted island and saw that Chen Shu and Xuanyuan Tianji had hidden themselves away at some point.】
You knew that they had also seen through the sinister man’s realm and understood that they could not defeat him, so hiding first was their only option.】
In the next instant, the Chaos Divine Lightning struck your body, and your consciousness instantly fell into darkness.】
Ding!】
A fatal crisis has been detected!】

Activate!”
Feeling the Great Perfection cultivation of the Eighth Tribulation Realm flow through him, Su Ming’s brows drew tightly together.
In the final simulation, Su Ming had clearly seen that before undergoing the Chaos Lightning Tribulation, he had already broken through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm.
But why was the reward ultimately given by the Simulator only the Eighth Tribulation Realm?
For a moment, Su Ming turned the matter over and over in his mind, yet still could not understand it.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Su Ming, and he thought of one possibility.
If the Simulator had allowed him to inherit cultivation at the Heavenly Venerable Realm, then he would no longer be able to continue undergoing the ninth Chaos Lightning Tribulation.
And in that case, he, Su Ming, would never again be able to forge a complete Immortal-Demon Body.
That would mean all his previous efforts would have been wasted.
