Shrouding the Heavens

Chapter 300 - 301 Chapter 306 Heavenly Tribulation

301: Chapter 306 Heavenly Tribulation 301: Chapter 306 Heavenly Tribulation The taciturn Daoist was charred black, nearly incinerated moments ago!

Purple lightning, each bolt as thick as a water vat, stirred the Nine Heavens.

It struck down from the sky, its terrifying light scorching the earth and stone.

The taciturn Daoist’s expression changed drastically.

This was the Purple Heavens lightning, specifically meant to restrain him and disastrous to his Nine Tribulations Body.

Without his Heavenly Technique reaching the perfection stage, he certainly couldn’t withstand it.

The lightning was terrifying; he was like a tender branch in a storm, ready to break at any moment.

His Daoist robe had turned to ash, his body covered in terrible burn marks.

“It’s you again, you dead dog!

Your sense of smell is truly sharp.

I haven’t settled the last account with you yet!” shouted the taciturn Daoist, who was one and the same as Daoist Duan De; there was no real difference.

“Ox-nose, this Emperor regrets not capturing you last time.

Today, I’ve come specifically to claim you as my human pet!” roared the big black dog.

It controlled the lightning, shaking the heavens and earth with its terrifying power.

A large dog boasted of making him a human pet.

This made Daoist Duan, who had never suffered a disadvantage, tremble with anger, his fingers shaking.

He wanted to skin the dog alive, immediately stew a pot of black dog meat, and devour it all, soup and flesh included.

“You dog demon, this poor Daoist will definitely suppress you!” “Human pet, don’t be disrespectful to this Emperor.

Be careful, or I’ll slowly train you in the future.” The big black dog, as arrogant as a wolf with a puffed-up tail, was extremely presumptuous.

“Unscrupulous…

Heavenly Venerate!” Daoist Duan De chanted, his body emitting bursts of precious light.

“It’s useless.

I know you’ve cultivated the Tribulation Crossing Heavenly Technique.

All of this was arranged just for you,” the big black dog laughed cunningly.

On the mountaintop, Dao Glyphs were everywhere, completely sealing the area.

It controlled the Purple Heavens lightning, sending down one terrifying thunderbolt after another, turning this place into a Thunder Sea.

Although Daoist Duan De’s cultivation base was profound, he couldn’t break out of this Forbidden Land.

Trapped on the mountain, assailed by bolts of Purple Heavens lightning and deafening thunder, he was struck until he trembled all over, charred black, his form on the verge of disintegrating.

In the distance, many cultivators couldn’t see clearly what was happening here; they could only see lightning that stirred the Nine Heavens.

The Dao Glyphs carved by the Black Emperor were mysterious, isolating the mountain peak from the outside world.

Only the lightning descending from the sky could be seen.

“Dog demon, we have no past grievances or recent enmity.

Why are you doing this?

What exactly do you want?” the taciturn Daoist demanded.

“Hand over all the Sources, and I’ll make you my human pet,” the big black dog replied arrogantly, its bald tail held high.

“Damn it!” Daoist Duan De was furious.

“Infinite Heavenly Venerate!

You cur, you’re too sinister!

Today, this poor Daoist, even at the cost of damaging my Daoist Practice, will capture you, this abominable beast!” Beside them, Ye Fan chuckled, a brilliance flashing in his hand.

He had already prepared the mysterious jade platform; this operation was about to conclude successfully.

Tu Fei heckled from the side, “That dog, if you can actually make him your human pet, then I’ll truly admire you.” “WOOF!” “BOOM!” A purple bolt of lightning nearly struck Tu Fei on the head.

He quickly shut his mouth, not daring to say more.

In this Forbidden Land, it was the big black dog’s domain.

“Nine Heavens and Nine Earths…

refine the Undying Body!” the taciturn Daoist Duan De cried softly.

But his voice was quickly cut off as the big black dog roared, “Heavenly Tribulation!” A colossal torrent of lightning descended from the sky.

All the purple light merged, bathing the area in a hazy purple mist, its glow dazzling.

This was a world that belonged to lightning!

Purple Heavens lightning was everywhere; thunderbolts rained down.

Every inch of space pulsed with terrifying brilliance, enough to destroy everything.

“The Heavenly Tribulation from the Nine Tribulation Dao Patterns?!” the taciturn Daoist exclaimed in shock.

“BOOM!” This was no longer mere individual bolts of lightning; it could rightly be called a Thunder Sea.

Endless purple radiance converged, pressing down, causing the shameless Daoist’s body to crack, on the verge of being pulverized.

Although he was formed from divine energy and not flesh and blood, he still felt a pain that pierced his bones.

He cried out, “You’ve even mastered such an ancient technique?!” “This Emperor knows much more than that!

Hurry up and become my human pet!” the big black dog barked.

“Damn it, Unscrupulous Heavenly Venerate!” Daoist Duan De was almost cross-eyed with rage, but the circumstances were against him; he was truly at his wit’s end.

“BOOM!” Endless lightning struck down, causing Daoist Duan De’s body to grow faint.

Much of his divine energy dispersed, and he narrowly avoided annihilation.

“Human pet, submit!

I shall bestow upon you supreme glory!” The big black dog was exceedingly passionate, just like Daoist Duan De himself had been not long ago—his purple robes fluttering as he railed against all the Sacred Lands.

Now, it was Daoist Duan De who was on the receiving end.

“To hell with that Unscrupulous Heavenly Venerate!” Daoist Duan De gritted his teeth.

“Dead dog, don’t you get so smug!” He desperately sought a way to break free.

“BOOM!” The Thunder Sea pressed down, smashing Daoist Duan De into the earth, leaving him with a mouthful of dirt.

“Human pet, tremble!

Your master is furious!

His wrath shall sweep through the Nine Heavens!” The big black dog declared with great dignity, appearing incredibly sacred, a demeanor that surpassed Daoist Duan De’s own from earlier.

Tu Fei was astounded.

“Damn!

Has this dead dog also gotten into character?

Not wanting Daoist Duan De to hog the spotlight, he wants to look down upon the world too?” “BOOM!” A thousand bolts of lightning interwove and descended, a dazzling spectacle that struck Daoist Duan De until his eyes rolled back.

“Human pet, repent!

Kneel before me, and this Emperor will forgive your sins!” The big black dog grew increasingly ecstatic, its massive head raised high, like an inviolable god.

Even Ye Fan was speechless.

This dead dog had truly gotten into its role, treating itself as a god, even more so than Daoist Duan De had been not long ago.

“Human pet, see the error of your ways and return!

This Emperor is omnipresent, walking with you, guiding you back to my side!” The big black dog exuded divine might, adopting a completely condescending posture, its expression solemn and sacred.

“BOOM!” Myriad layers of lightning shattered Daoist Duan De’s arms.

Although divine energy could reconstruct them, the pain still made him curse incessantly.

“Damn it!” The taciturn Daoist Duan De’s face turned green with fury.

He had never suffered such a colossal loss.

To be looked down upon by a dog holding its head high, one that was shouting about making him a human pet—this made him feel like vomiting blood.

“Dead dog, what will it take for you to stop?” Daoist Duan De was beginning to feel he couldn’t hold on much longer.

The god born within this Dao Palace absolutely could not come to any harm, as he still needed this incarnation to save his true body.

“Black Emperor, first make him hand over the Source!” Ye Fan yelled.

This dead dog was getting too carried away, almost forgetting the important business.

“Human pet, bow down in worship!

This Emperor forgives your sins!

Prostrate yourself at my feet, and I shall guide your path forward!” The big black dog became even more engrossed in its role.

“BOOM!” Lightning fell, striking Daoist Duan De and sending him dodging and leaping.

“Damn it, is this ever going to end?!” Daoist Duan De trembled all over with anger.

“Hurry and hand over all the Sources, and I’ll make it stop,” Ye Fan communicated through the lightning.

“You people are too inhuman!

This is what this poor Daoist risked life and limb for!

How can you do this?!” Daoist Duan De yelled, unwilling.

“Daoist, haven’t you always acted this way in the past?” Ye Fan sneered.

“This poor Daoist always leaves some leeway, but you people…” The taciturn Daoist Duan De, his hair disheveled, was in a wretched state.

“Bow down, human pet, and this Emperor will forgive your ignorance!” The Black Emperor, adopting the posture of a divine charlatan, sent down a torrent of Purple Heavens lightning, interrupting his words.

“Pray, human pet, this Emperor…” “Kowtow, human pet, this Emperor…” The big black dog was truly addicted.

Its majestic voice droned on relentlessly, while lightning continued to strike wildly, making Daoist Duan De so angry he felt he would vomit blood.

“Dead dog, hurry up and collect the Sources!” Ye Fan couldn’t watch any longer; this creature was too torturous.

“Human pet, from this day forward, you shall take refuge in this Emperor!

I shall be with you, glory shall be with you!

I shall guide you onto the path of immortal Longevity!

My human pet, kneel and submit!” The big black dog finally finished its speech.

It was truly insufferable, to the point that even Ye Fan and Tu Fei couldn’t stand it, let alone the unfortunate Daoist Duan De.

Daoist Duan De was struck by lightning until white smoke rose from his body.

He was barely breathing, with less than half of his body remaining, lying there motionless like a dead dog, yet still cursing under his breath.

“Dead dog…

damn it…

black dog meat…

I’ll stew you alive…” “Human pet, do you submit or not?” the Black Emperor demanded, its head held high.

“Here, take the Sources!

Hurry and open the Restriction on this place!” The taciturn Daoist waved his hand, and a large, multicolored pile of Sources appeared on the ground.

Ye Fan didn’t step forward.

“This is barely 10,000 pounds of Sources.

It’s far from enough.” “One shouldn’t be too greedy!” Daoist Duan De said in a low voice.

“Then there’s nothing more to discuss.

Black Emperor, continue with the lightning,” Ye Fan sneered.

“Do you really think you can kill me?” Suddenly, the taciturn Daoist’s body turned illusory, disintegrating on the spot and fading into nothingness.

“The Tribulation Crossing Heavenly Technique…

a god produced by it is undying, omnipresent, and very difficult to destroy.” The big black dog’s eyes sparkled as it said, “But by encountering this Emperor, he’s run out of luck.

Does he really think disintegrating will allow him to escape this tribulation?” “BOOM!” Lightning intertwined, flooding every inch of space.

The electric light was like a sea, engulfing the mountain peak.

“These are the Nine Tribulation Dao Glyphs!

No matter what you transform into, as long as you’re alive, you must undergo the tribulation!” “You…” Daoist Duan De screamed miserably, his voice echoing from the void.

“Hand over the Sources!

We don’t want to waste any more words.

If you don’t produce 60,000 pounds of Sources, you can wait to be turned into ash today!” Tu Fei shouted.

“My human pet, if you persist in your insolence, don’t blame this Emperor for being ruthless,” the big black dog threatened.

“Fine, you’re ruthless enough!

I’ll give you all the Sources I have on me.” Daoist Duan De was anxious, terrified that his true body outside would be destroyed.

The sky glittered with sparkling lights as numerous Sources rained down, falling onto the mountaintop, making it blaze with a dazzling, multicolored radiance.

So many Sources piled together, enshrouded in Spiritual Qi, could make one feel lost.

These gleaming treasures truly captivated one’s Heart Spirit.

“Black Emperor, trap him!

I’ll collect the Sources!” Ye Fan had no intention of being ambushed by Daoist Duan De.

Everything went smoothly.

Ye Fan waved his wide sleeve, gathering all the Sources on the ground.

There were over 50,000 pounds in total—a colossal fortune.

If he added the 25,000 pounds he already possessed, along with that particle of Divine Source, he could almost break through to the Fourth Layer Heaven of the Dao Palace.

“BOOM!” Suddenly, the earth shook and the mountain peak crumbled.

All the Dao Glyphs cracked, and the immense torrent of lightning vanished.

“What’s going on?!” Tu Fei exclaimed in shock.

“This is bad!

Some formidable expert has destroyed everything with absolute power!” The big black dog was terrified.

Without a word, Ye Fan summoned the mysterious jade platform, threw it onto the ground, and leaped onto it with Tu Fei.

He then quickly pulled the Black Emperor into his sleeve to avoid exposing it.

“BOOM!” At the same time, a second violent tremor struck.

All the Dao Glyphs shattered completely.

The world returned to clarity, and everything was revealed.

There, the true body of Daoist Duan De cut a miserable figure, covered in blood, his hair disheveled.

He had fled to this location and incited numerous cultivators to attack, their combined efforts blasting open this mountain.

THUD.

From the sky, the taciturn Daoist incarnation, engulfed by the last of the Purple Heavens lightning, fell to the ground, scorched black.

Daoist Duan De and the taciturn Daoist incarnation felt a connection between their minds, instantly understanding everything.

Duan De was so furious he almost spewed his heart out.

“Damn it, you people…” He pointed a trembling finger at the two figures standing on the mysterious jade platform, his whole body convulsing.

After all his painstaking efforts, he had nearly been killed, only to have all his Sources plundered.

The numerous cultivators didn’t understand what had happened.

The purple-clothed youth they had been chasing, “Ye Fan,” hadn’t been this agitated even when coughing up mouthfuls of blood.

What was wrong now?

“Something’s not right!” In the distance, Ji Haoyue’s expression changed.

He possessed a natural Divine King Body and had a peculiar sensitivity to the sacred body; he had sensed something.

Ye Fan, his back to the crowd, waved his hand nonchalantly, a gesture that could rival the previously flamboyant Daoist Duan De, though the outcomes were worlds apart.

In the final moment, Daoist Duan De had plummeted from Heaven to Hell, while Ye Fan successfully began his traverse through the void.

At this moment, Daoist Duan De was so enraged his insides felt like they were twisting.

His stomach ached, his liver ached, his lungs ached, his teeth ached…

his entire body ached.

A flash of light, and the Array Patterns shone.

Ye Fan and Tu Fei’s figures instantly disappeared into the opened void.

“Stop him!

Don’t let them traverse the void!” Ji Haoyue shouted.

Xia Jiuyou, for some unknown reason, had already sprung into action even before Ji Haoyue’s shout.

Beneath his feet, Nine Dragon Qi transformed into colorful Pilean that streaked across the sky, flying forward.

It’s the end of the month.
