Chapter 836 - 834: Failed Tribulation
The Earth Chicken inherited the power of the Ancient Phoenix and attained Enlightenment under the bloom of the phoenix tree, greatly boosting Chen Pingping's strength.
However...
Just as he was realizing the Dao, performing the Six Tao of Reincarnation.
Jiang Ni'er, however, deduced the Heavenly Fortune Tao, bringing about a terrifying catastrophe. Now... an hour has passed, and the calamity has covered hundreds of thousands of miles.
It became more and more vast and terrifying; each lightning strike was as thick as a mountain.
There were even young emperors, ancient gods, and bizarre creatures.
A palace, a sword, an iron pot, and so on.
Within the calamity.
Chen Pingping wailed: "Ahhh! Ni'er, what are you doing?"
Everyone else retreated from there, turned their heads back, horrified...
The Qi Refiners who came from afar were also shocked, staring intently at this calamity.
Soon, the strong ones from Luo Feng Mountain arrived.
A group of confident Soldier Kings were silent at the sight of this, cold sweat starting to appear on their foreheads.
No one could see Chen Pingping beneath the calamity, but... such a terrifying calamity was so palpable despite the distance.
The Power of Destruction within was terrifying.
Buzz!
Suddenly, a demonic red sword light slashed down from the sky.
It was a woman of unparalleled beauty.
Her face was cold, wearing a white dress, swaying in the calamity, free of dust. She looked at Chen Pingping, uttering two words: "Track."
This terrifying sword light pierced through Chen Pingping's body, and even with the protection of six Emperor Weapons, it was to no avail.
The woman who made the move was too powerful.
She didn't seem like a shadow conjured by the calamity but more like a living strong figure.
"Is he verifying the Tao?" A great general finally arrived.
He was entirely pitch black, shrouded in mist, making it impossible for others to see his face, except for a pair of cold eyes, visible outside.
This general was dozens of feet tall, with a robust body, like a Flood Dragon.
He coldly watched the calamity ahead.
Bang!
Yet another great general rushed over.
Compared to the first to arrive, her body was much smaller, only seven or eight meters tall, her entire body dark red, with a vicious and terrifying face.
Behind her were a pair of wings, creating a fierce wind when flapping, whistling forth.
She opened her mouth: "Suspected of Tao Verification."
"Not quite." From the other side came Gui Hua's voice...
Three generals from Luo Feng Mountain arrived simultaneously.
This scene was rare!
The Qi Refiners who came from afar immediately felt that oppression.
But strangely, this terrifying calamity suddenly vanished the next moment, disappearing without a trace.
Jiang Ni'er returned, stopping the deduction of Heavenly Fortune Tao, and the calamity naturally dispersed.
At this moment!
In the ruins, Chen Pingping, with disheveled hair and tattered clothes, resembling a beggar, even giving off a burnt smell when approached closely.
Chen Pingping glared with wide eyes, about to curse.
Jiang Ni'er took the initiative: "Senior brother, this is all part of the plan."
"???
"Think about it, even Luo Feng Mountain's Undying King has been revived, and with so many powerful enemies, it's only a matter of time before they find us. Why not give them an illusion?"
"???
"The calamity descended, and the Human Clan's Chen Pingping verified the Tao and became an Emperor."
"???
"In this way, Luo Feng Mountain won't dare act recklessly." Jiang Ni'er explained: "Senior brother, do you think it makes sense?"
It seemed to make some sense.
But?
Chen Pingping, angrily: "Do you think I succeeded? Or failed?"
Jiang Ni'er: "..."
The calamity dispersed, yet there was no force of the Heavenly Dao descending, nor any Heavenly Dao Laws, none of the things that should be there for Tao verification.
What kind of success is this?
On the contrary, it could be understood as Tao verification failure, so? Shouldn't the strong ones from Luo Feng Mountain seize this opportunity?
Jiang Ni'er's eyes shifted, also realizing the flaw in this reasoning, she smiled awkwardly: "Should I try again?"
Chen Pingping exclaimed: "Are you trying to murder me?"
"I dare not!" Jiang Ni'er hadn't considered the consequences; Chen Pingping was furious, and then... she offered the news of encountering the Moon God to make amends.
But?
The current situation was different.
The Moon God's identity and background were too terrifying, and the levels involved weren't something Chen Pingping could touch upon.
If possible, she would take Chen Pingping away from here.
"Speak..." Chen Pingping kept a stern face.
"Speak what?"
"What do you think?"
"I don't know!"
"What did you deduce?"
"I just took a look at the Undying King; he's very strong, about to descend." Jiang Ni'er lied.
This statement indeed worked.
Chen Pingping's anger diminished quite a bit, and his expression became serious, but... he still harbored resentment; if this girl wanted to deduce the Heavenly Fortune Tao, she should give a heads-up beforehand.
Ouch.
The calamity struck him, making him feel numb all over.
Jiang Ni'er's eyes shifted again: "Isn't there Mao Qiu?"
Chen Pingping: "..."
For an ordinary calamity, Mao Qiu could directly devour it.
But the karma derived from the Heavenly Fortune Tao, Mao Qiu dared not act recklessly, yet... it still had some function.
Chen Pingping only overlooked it.
Realizing this, Chen Pingping also thought himself quite foolish, unwilling to dwell on this matter, he asked: "What does the Undying King look like?"
I don't know either!
Jiang Ni'er had a troubled expression, arguing: "Very blurry, couldn't see clearly." Pausing, she continued: "Senior brother, the Netherworld's situation is turbulent; the strong ones from Luo Feng Mountain and Divine Clan are ready to move, all lurking secretly, perhaps they will make a move at any moment. I think there's a need to return and bring reinforcements."
Just as she finished speaking, a powerful Soldier King burst in here.
"Failed to overcome the tribulation, today will be your death day." He was strong, with a cold face, bronzed skin, when making his move, fierce winds arose, and air currents surged.
Even carrying astonishing killing intentions.
In the distance!
Everyone was awestruck.
The dispersal of the calamity meant Chen Pingping failed to overcome the tribulation.
So now what state is Chen Pingping in? With a Soldier King making a move, how will he resist?
However...
With a buzzing sound, a sword light shot out, instantly piercing through that Soldier King's body, sending him flying.
The Qi Refiners were dumbfounded.
The three generals frowned slightly; they continued to observe.
The remaining Soldier Kings were terrified.
One of them couldn't help but speak: "Didn't he fail to overcome the tribulation? What's going on?"
That Soldier King, eager to make merit, thus rushed out first, not expecting Chen Pingping to still have combat power, which was truly unexpected.
"Do not panic, just a death struggle." A Soldier King said coldly, the shock lasted only a moment; now, he had calmed down.
Analyzing the situation carefully.
There's no denying it; Chen Pingping's combat power is strong, comparable to Sir Gui Hua.
But he failed in the tribulation, presumably declining in state and sharply reducing in combat power.
To kill him, now is the ideal time.
But... everyone has their death struggles, and Chen Pingping is currently in such a stage.
He calmly analyzed, the corners of his lips slightly raised.
At this moment!
Dark Unparalleled and others, drawn by the commotion Chen Pingping caused, therefore came here, seeing the ruins not far away, and the Power of Destruction wafting in the air.
He took a sharp, cold breath: "How is this Human Clan so fierce?"
"Master, should we make a move?" The little maid asked.
Slap!
Dark Unparalleled raised a hand and flicked her forehead, glaring: "What are you thinking? I, the Divine Clan's genius, the 361st generation bloodline of the Dark Tribe, how could I make a move to save a Human Clan? Unless he pleads with me."
He had a premonition.
In this situation, Chen Pingping is bound to die.
Failed in the tribulation, exposing his position, attracting the strong ones from Luo Feng Mountain.
If he doesn't die, who will?
Dark Unparalleled stroked a non-existent beard, quite composed: "This boy's strength is decent, but alas... there's still a tiny gap compared to me."
The little maid slightly opened her mouth, wanting to say: "Master, he once suppressed us."
But she knew, given Master's temper, saying this would likely earn her another flick on the forehead.
Forget it, forget it.
Just a Human Clan.
Better to watch the show!
