Omnipotent Sage

“Now, you two! This is not the time for infighting!” It only took a brief exchange of words for Youxian Temple and Extraterrestrial Divine Mountain to start a fight. Yu Taixuan had mixed feelings. The good thing was that the two big sects from the Three Western Regions had a disagreement, which would no doubt benefit Divine Wind Palace. The bad thing was that they still had not started the operation, and internal fighting would be of no help.

“Yes, my lad from Extraterrestrial Divine Mountain, what you say is true. When the time comes, we’ll each get what we can according to our own ability. And if your guys at Extraterrestrial Divine Mountain can obtain the device, then so can I, Li Chunfeng.”

“Fine.” the bald brute smirked, staring at Taoist Chun Feng with a glowering expression. He turned to look at Wang She crossing the Thunder Tribulation on the vast planet.

By now, the sky on the vast planet was completely covered by the golden light of the Supreme Thunder Canopy. The stormy fifth crossing of the Thunder Tribulation had been completed with no difficulty at all. And now the formation map in the hollow was starting to emit a faint red glow.

“Quick, look! It’s the Six Directions Red Thunder. He’s in the hollow, crossing the Six Directions Thunder Tribulation. Oh no! This guy is going to attain Lord of Heaven Karmic Rank with the help of the Supreme Thunder Canopy. We need to kill him, we need to kill him! Otherwise, we’ll be no match for him once he’s secured this phase.” Seeing the red glow, Taoist Chun Feng screamed in rage.

Crack, crack.

While Taoist Chun Feng was shouting, the red thunderbolts had already spread over the entire sky. In the middle of the magic formation of the hollow, it looked like a black hole which had opened up and lead to the Void Immortal Realm. The hole looked like an entrance to an ancient site; a continuous stream of Divine Qi was flowing into it, like a long, backward-flowing river. In this torrential stream of Qi floated golden lotus flowers, carried along by the boundless Six Directions Red Thunder, cascading towards the Supreme Thunder Canopy.

“The Essential Qi Golden Lotus! It’s the Golden Divine Qi solidified into a physical form. Just one flower is all it takes to withstand all the Divine Qi that I have absorbed. He now has ten times the power than he had before! And so many flowers, too. Damn it, why is that guy so lucky!” Taoist Chun Feng watched the golden lotuses floating in the stream, and roared once again in anger.

Splash! Splash!

None of the others could stand it either. They gulped. It was so alluring, even one measly flower would greatly increase their level of cultivation. Suddenly faced with this multitude of flowers, enough to increase their power countless times over, how could their hearts not be filled with avarice?

They were all Lords of Heaven, but having been cultivated for thousands of years, they clearly understood the severity of the situation. Even for the strongest of them, Taoist Chun Feng, facing this Six Directions Thunder Tribulation would be the road leading to their demise.

“We need to kill him, we need to kill him. Not only do we need to kill him, we also need to take away all of his pneuma! Then we can get this over within an instant!”

Yu Taixuan gulped audibly as he watched the group of men react. What he feared most was that nothing would come out from all their efforts. It now looked like they were not there to help him, but instead were greedily eyeing Wang She’s fairy weapon and pneuma. He did not need to say anymore. He started to think about his own situation, and pondered on the advantage Divine Wind Palace could gain from what Wang She was carrying.

“Look, he is going to start the seventh Thunder Tribulation!” While he was still pondering, Shi Shengyan pointed at the vast planet again and yelled.

Although the Supreme Thunder Canopy was an ancient fairy weapon belonging the Thunder Emperor, it had the power to control the innumerable thunderbolts. But Wang She’s power was limited; there was no way he could refine his skill when he was using the weapon, so it had limited capabilities. Therefore, after he survived the Six Directions Thunder Tribulation, his sixth tribulation, the glow on the planet would slowly fade, making it was clear that the fairy weapon’s power had been used up.

“This guy is too reckless. Starting the seventh tribulation under these circumstances? He really is completely oblivious to his forthcoming demise!”, Taoist Chun Feng said with a stern laugh.

In their eyes, Wang She really had no idea that he was courting death.

After this guy has crossed this Void Thunder Tribulation, having gone through six tribulations and achieved the rank of Karmic Rank Lord of Heaven, his combat capability will have quickly exceeded all of the Lords of Heaven present. And yet he was still insistent on completing the seventh Thunder Tribulation to obtain the Divine Sense!

If this guy gained Divine Sense after absorbing so much Divine Qi, ancient pneuma and Golden Divine Qi in the Void Thunder Tribulation, then this Divine Sense would be so earth-shattering that no ordinary person could ever hope to withstand it. Maybe this was the reason he was so keen to initiate the seventh Thunder Tribulation?

But doing so would undoubtedly be very dangerous, and this made Wang She even more reviled among these Lords of Heaven.

Why even more reviled?

It was plain, common jealousy. This band of Lords of Heaven burned with envy, seeing Wang She moving straight on to the sixth Void Thunder Tribulation. Seeing his insatiable greed, they really wanted to thrash him.

Just when they thought there was no way Wang She could survive the seventh Evil Thunder Tribulation, the magic formation in the hollow suddenly started shaking. The entrance in the middle of the black hole suddenly became more distinct; countless cyan thunderbolts evolved into streams of cyan thunder dragons surging towards the Supreme Thunder Canopy. The light from the Supreme Thunder Canopy disappeared under the onslaught of these thunder dragons. The light that had covered the entire vast planet vanished, revealing Wang She who was on the brink of collapse under the pressure, in the form of a recovering Real Body of a roc.

Boom, boom, boom…

A million thunder dragons pummeled the roc’s Real Body. They ripped to pieces what almost become the True Body of a roc-panther.

On the vast planet, Wang She grimaced in fury as streams of light converged onto his head. It turned out he had several Supreme-Class Pure Yang Celestial Devices. These Pure Yang Celestial Devices emitted a faint light as they provided Wang She with solid protection.

Even fairy weapons could not protect Wang She now. But what about several Pure Yang Celestial Devices?

Crack!

Boom!

Several deafening rumbles could be heard. The Supreme-Class Pure Yang Celestial Devices completely disintegrated under the onslaught of the thunder dragons. All that was left of them was dust which dispersed in the breeze.

“It’s over!” Barely able to control their emotions, the Lords of Heaven on the ship closed their eyes. There was no doubt now that Wang She’s tribulation crossing had failed. There was absolutely nothing left. The pneuma, countless Pure Yang Celestial Devices, his roc Real Body – were all gone. All that remained were the fairy weapon and the Supreme Thunder Canopy.

The ship was suddenly filled with an eerie atmosphere, and the men of Extraterrestrial Divine Mountain and the men from Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty eyed each other cautiously, each fearing that the other side would make the first move to kill the other. All of them cursed repeatedly. This Wang She was foolish. He crossed six Thunder Tribulations and gained the Lord of Heaven Karmic Rank, but it wasn’t enough. Why did he have to initiate the seventh Thunder Tribulation and destroy himself? Did he really think that crossing this Void Thunder Tribulation would be so easy?

“No, look. His roc Real Body is still there!”

Just as the men of the Extraterrestrial Divine Mountain and the men of the Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty were glowering at each other and about to start a brawl, Yu Taixuan pointed at the vast planet.

“That’s impossible. How come his roc Real Body has not disappeared? Why is the Thunder Tribulation not over?”

On the vast planet, the Evil Thunder Tribulation was not only ongoing, but was getting more and more intense. With the relentless attack from the Seven Evils Cyan Thunder, the Divine Qi was no longer a normal Divine Qi, but turned into streams of black pneuma as they cascaded down onto the vast planet.

“What is this pneuma? Why do I have such a bad feeling about this?”

“It’s Original Essential Qi. It’s the only ancient pneuma in the Void Immortal Realm. It is a grade higher than Divine Qi, and stronger. It is the only pneuma available for someone practicing at ranks higher than Immortal Karma Rank. I didn’t think that this type of pneuma could be found in the seventh Thunder Tribulation. This means that if he gets through this tribulation safely, he will have the power to fight an immortal.”

“No way!” The men on the ship were shocked to hear this from Taoist Chun Feng.

The power to fight an immortal? Maybe he could even crush them with one finger.

This fuelled their desire to completely eradicate Wang She.

“I didn’t think a Void Thunder Tribulation could have such a powerful effect! This kind of thing with Zhou Bao and Wang She absolutely cannot happen again. Otherwise, this Heaven Realm macro world will fall into complete chaos. Damn Immortal Palace, secretly raising such a formidable foe. Do they really want the Heaven Realm macro world to fall into chaos?” Watching the Original Essential Qi billowing sent a chill through Yu Taixuan. He had become accustomed to holding the highest rank. It seemed that Zhou Bao and Wang She could destroy the original order and equilibrium, and therefore must be eliminated.

Hiss!

A long hissing sound came from the vast planet as a large snake leaped into view. This snake was thousands of feet long and its scales glittered with flashes of cyan light. Each scale covering the snake was the size of a grain of rice, but each scale had an exquisitely delicate ancient decorative charm etched on it. Once the snake emerged, it absorbed all of the cyan thunder dragons attacking it in an instant. Each thunder dragon disappeared as soon as it touched a scale. These scales could absorb every bit of power from the Seven Evils Cyan Thunder. The snake grew bigger with every thunder dragon it absorbed. Its mouth gaped open and swallowed all of the Original Essential Qi that was flowing downwards. Once the seventh Thunder Tribulation was over, the snake, having grown enormously, wrapped itself around the entire vast planet. It watched the golden warship with its towering head as its body coiled around the planet. In its cold eyes flashed a contemptuous smile.

“The Giant Demon of Heaven and Earth——!” All of the men were stunned as they watched the giant snake, except Taoist Chun Feng who cried out in fear, his face pale with panic.
