Chapter 708 Tribulation! Tribulation!
No matter how Chen Yuan pondered, he felt something was amiss, as if something was missing. Immediately, he turned his gaze to Moro, wanting to hear his opinion.
Moro pondered for a moment, a trace of contemplation flashed in his eyes, and he solemnly said:
"Perhaps it is related to the Immortal Realm."
"The Immortal Realm..."
"The Azure Dragon was corrupted by demonic energy and lost its sanity, and this place is a demonic cave. This humble monk speculates that this may be one of the reasons why the world has become turbid."
"This..."
Moro had mentioned before that the power of the rules between heaven and earth began to gradually become turbid after the fall of the former Chu dynasty more than two hundred years ago. At that time, it was speculated that perhaps a great power in the Immortal Realm had isolated heaven and earth.
Now, judging from his words, he felt that this demonic cave might also be one of the things that polluted the world.
"However, this humble monk is only speculating. The truth of the matter cannot be completely determined yet." Moro was not capable of calculating all the affairs of the world.
Moreover, the meaning expressed by this Azure Dragon was indeed somewhat unclear, and he could only rely on his own experience to judge. After all, the biggest enemy now was the Immortal Realm.
"Junior understands!"
Chen Yuan nodded, and was about to say something when suddenly, the world trembled, and the long and narrow Dragon God Island seemed to be experiencing an earthquake.
It actually began to slowly sink into the sea at this moment.
In just a few dozen breaths, the entire island disappeared from the sea surface. If Chen Yuan hadn't been watching all along, others might not have been able to find this island.
On the boundless sea, it was indeed impossible to accurately find this thing. After all, even Moro's divine sense could not cover the entire Dragon God Island.
There seemed to be a mysterious power on it, isolating perception.
"The Eastern Azure Dragon was born with the destiny of heaven and earth, and cannot be spied upon. After today, the Azure Dragon has fallen, and there will probably be no more Dragon God Island in this world."
There was a hint of respect in Moro's eyes.
After the Azure Dragon Island sank, the demonic energy in the void was also transformed by Yuan Qi, and the dark clouds completely dispersed, returning to the clear sky without a trace of clouds that it was at the beginning.
"The destiny of heaven and earth..." Chen Yuan muttered to himself, pondered for a long time, and placed his gaze on the Dragon Essence in his hand, a trace of relief in his eyes.
Although he had suffered hardships today and almost died, the result was still acceptable. He had obtained the Dragon Essence guided by the opportunity!!!
This was not the Flood Dragon that Chen Yuan had encountered in the Central Plains that failed its tribulation, but a genuine True Dragon with terrifying strength.
Its strength was absolutely comparable to that of an Immortal God.
If it weren't for the demonic flames on its body being controlled by Moro, if it weren't for that faint light being countered by the Destiny Altar, if it weren't for Moro's possession granting him great power.
If it weren't for... the True Dragon being weakened by the warriors of Dongying, if it weren't for... being in the weak period of one hundred and twenty years that the warriors of Dongying had mentioned.
It would indeed be a very difficult thing for him to injure it.
After all, the True Dragon had thick skin and flesh, and could withstand his repeated power releases. He was different. If he was caught off guard, he might be seriously injured by a single blow. Of course, Chen Yuan had also thought that since the Destiny Altar countered this thing, perhaps even without Moro, he could have worn down the black energy and awakened the Azure Dragon's sanity.
But this thought was just a thought, because it was not very feasible. If it wasn't for the fact that he had no choice at the end, the black energy would not have taken the risk of attacking him.
It might have been able to suppress and kill him with pure power.
"The Dragon Essence is the source of the True Dragon's entire power. Although it is not at its peak, it is enough to take your physical body a step further, and the great success of your Divine Ability is promising."
Moro looked at the Dragon Essence in Chen Yuan's hand, which was emitting a faint blue light, and a smile appeared on his face. This was a gift from the True Dragon, containing extremely great power.
For a body refiner, it was no less than a great tonic.
"Only the great success of my Divine Ability?"
Chen Yuan smiled, not quite agreeing with Moro's statement. According to the guidance of the opportunity, this time he would not only achieve great success in his Divine Ability, but also undergo tribulation and transform his Yuan Shen into Yang.
By then, with both body refinement and Qi refinement reaching the third level, how much would his strength expand?
He was not confident against the few who had initially come into contact with the rules, but apart from them, Chen Yuan was confident that he could fight against anyone. At that time,
He would be a genuine fourth in the world!
The kind that was not adulterated.
"Instead of choosing another day, let's refine the Dragon Essence here today."
This place had been devastated by a great battle, and almost all the fish and shrimp had died. It was a forbidden area for hundreds of miles around. Moreover, this place was located in the vast East Sea, far from the Central Plains.
It was also tens of thousands of miles away from Dongying, and the vitality of heaven and earth was still considered abundant. It could be considered a relatively excellent place for him to cultivate in seclusion.
Moreover, with Moro protecting him, he was not afraid of anyone with bad intentions coming to disturb him.
"Alright."
Moro nodded, without objecting.
The situation in the world was already beginning to change, and Chen Yuan's current strength was indeed somewhat insufficient. After all, he could not always be by Chen Yuan's side.
In the end, he still had to rely on himself.
Chen Yuan let out a long breath and was about to adjust his injuries. The previous battle was nothing, but later, Moro's mobilization of the rules put tremendous pressure on his Yuan Shen and physical body.
Even though the demonic energy later dissipated and turned into nectar, his physical body still had some injuries and was not suitable for breakthrough.
The great success of his Divine Ability was a threshold, a great hurdle. It was crucial for a warrior, and Chen Yuan would not be careless about this matter.
He had to be fully prepared.
However, before Chen Yuan could sit down cross-legged, the Emperor Slaughter Saber hanging in the void suddenly began to tremble, conveying an extremely clear meaning to Chen Yuan.
Then, two dragon roars resounded.
It... wanted to undergo tribulation!
Chen Yuan and Moro exchanged glances, feeling a little amused. This time, Chen Yuan had obtained the True Dragon's gift, but the Emperor Slaughter Saber was the same.
It had been given half of the Dragon Soul power by the True Dragon.
If it came to benefits, its gain was no less than Chen Yuan's.
When it swallowed the Azure Flood Dragon Soul before, it had already reached the peak of the Sixth Tribulation, and had even triggered the celestial phenomena, but the probability of successfully passing the tribulation was not high, so it finally gave up.
But its own accumulation was actually quite a bit. Now that it had obtained the True Dragon's gift, it did have the power to undergo tribulation, and even, in Chen Yuan's opinion,
It would not just be a single thunder tribulation.
"If that's the case, then you go through the tribulation first."
Chen Yuan waved his hand and said softly.
The Emperor Slaughter Saber trembled a few times, as if responding to Chen Yuan.
In the next moment, the Emperor Slaughter Saber suddenly rose into the air, and the dark clouds that had just dissipated in the world began to gather again at this moment.
Two Dragon Souls emerged from the Emperor Slaughter Saber, one was the Dragon Soul of the Emperor Slaughter Saber's main body, and the other was the Azure Dragon Soul, hovering above the Emperor Slaughter Saber, and the surrounding vitality of heaven and earth began to gather.
The Azure Dragon Soul had a little bit of intelligence, unlike the previous Azure Flood Dragon Soul that was very resistant. This Dragon Soul seemed to know its fate.
It did not resist, but roared to the sky at the last moment of being swallowed.
At this time, the Emperor Slaughter Saber no longer needed things like the Earth Core Fire Vein to assist it. It already had enough independence. If it became an Immortal Weapon.
Its intelligence would be no less than that of a real person.
Finally, when the vortex of heaven and earth vitality gathered to a fixed point, the Azure Dragon Soul no longer roamed, but instead rushed towards the Black Dragon Soul.
It opened its giant mouth and swallowed the Azure Dragon Soul in one gulp.
Then, it seemed to be a little stuffed, writhing and roaring in the void. At the same time, its Dragon Soul was also expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Its powerful aura was rising steadily!
"Roar!"
The Dragon Soul roared at the void, and the sea waves below rolled up to a height of a hundred feet, condensing into one water spout after another under the blowing of the strong wind.
In the next moment, the Dragon Soul suddenly plunged into the Emperor Slaughter Saber's body.
Between heaven and earth, the dark clouds were becoming more and more intense, even almost catching up with the time of the previous battle, turning the dozens of miles of sea into darkness, covered by the sky.
The Emperor Slaughter Saber, with a black body like ink, stood in the void, and the faint sound of the saber resounded through the heavens and the earth. Even without being urged, its surrounding sharpness was still shocking.
'Rumble...'
The muffled sound between heaven and earth was getting heavier and heavier, and a great pressure shrouded down from the nine heavens, as if not allowing the Emperor Slaughter Saber to advance.
On the Emperor Slaughter Saber's body, one mysterious pattern after another lit up, and were constantly moving, as if evolving in some direction...
Last time when the Emperor Slaughter Saber underwent tribulation, Chen Yuan still needed to use demonic flames to assist in refining the Dragon Bone, but this time, even without Moro saying it, he knew that it was not necessary.
The material of the Emperor Slaughter Saber was excellent, and there was no need to add other things for the time being. Here, he did not have anything good to add, and what he could rely on.
Was only half of the True Dragon's Dragon Soul.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
Faced with the increasingly heavy muffled thunder, the Emperor Slaughter Saber did not have the slightest intention of hiding, surrendering, or being afraid. What it revealed was unyielding, was fearlessness.
It was already fierce and difficult to tame. If it weren't for the Destiny Altar's intervention before, it would have been impossible to subdue it. It was the same now. The Evil Dragon that had swallowed the Flood Dragon Soul and the True Dragon Soul was even more powerful, and at the same time, its ferocity was also getting stronger and stronger.
Even when facing the heavens and the earth, it dared to roar at them.
It did not regard the tribulation thunder as an insurmountable chasm, but as something like demonic flames, which could temper it little by little.
Completely digesting the power of the Azure Dragon Soul. A quarter of an hour later, finally, the tribulation thunder in the sky seemed to have brewed to its peak, and a crackling sound resounded through the heavens and the earth, illuminating the void.
The tribulation thunder crashed down, directly hitting the Emperor Slaughter Saber's body.
It was like a heavy hammer blowing on a drum, exploding with a bang.
"Boom!"
The Emperor Slaughter Saber welcomed the tribulation thunder, bursting out a startlingly brilliant white light. When the light dissipated, the Emperor Slaughter Saber was unscathed, and even its luster was brighter.
But...
This was only the first tribulation thunder.
Nine thunder tribulations are a layer.
Passing through one layer is one tribulation.
After the first tribulation thunder fell, almost without any pause, the second tribulation thunder fell, and it was even stronger than the first tribulation thunder, and its power was even better.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Several consecutive tribulation thunders fell, and the area where the Emperor Slaughter Saber was located was turned into a sea of thunder at this moment. It was impossible to see its appearance clearly, and the most rigid and yang tribulation thunder was constantly tempering the Emperor Slaughter Saber, which had just swallowed the Azure Dragon Soul.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
Facing the falling tribulation thunder, the Emperor Slaughter Saber was still full of fighting spirit, roaring non-stop, as if venting its own power. At the same time, Chen Yuan and Moro could also hear.
The roar of this Dragon Soul was also gradually becoming more powerful.
"Boom!"
This was the ninth thunder tribulation, and also the last thunder tribulation of the Seventh Tribulation, and its power was almost comparable to the terror of the previous few thunder tribulations combined.
The further back a divine weapon is, the more difficult it is!
This is also one of the reasons why immortal weapons are extremely scarce, it is simply more difficult than a martial artist's cultivation.
However, the Emperor Slaughter Saber still persevered through it. At the moment when the tribulation thunder fell, it suddenly burst out a sound of saber cries, forcibly shattering the sea of thunder around it.
When the thunder light dissipated, the mysterious patterns on the Emperor Slaughter Saber had undergone great changes. Under the tempering of the tribulation thunder, they turned into dragon scale-like patterns.
Looking from a distance, it was as if a layer of dragon scales had been laid on the black blade.
The aura of the Emperor Slaughter Saber also far exceeded that of before.
It had reached the level of a Seventh Tribulation divine weapon!
This could already be described as scarce. Often, an immortal sect would need hundreds of years to gradually improve its foundation in order to refine an immortal weapon.
The Immortal Slaying Sword in Jiang He's hand was able to pass through four layers of tribulation thunder and reach the level of a Seventh Tribulation divine weapon. That was also because it absorbed a large part of the sword mound foundation of Mount Shu over thousands of years.
And the Emperor Slaughter Saber, when it was first born, had experienced several layers of thunder tribulations. In the past few years of following Chen Yuan, it had repeatedly gained benefits, just like this time.
It had even obtained the gift of the True Dragon's divided soul.
The Emperor Slaughter Saber seemed to be able to sense its own strength, and was constantly transmitting emotions to Chen Yuan, expressing its joy, as if saying.
Okay, this master is worth following, he doesn't eat alone.
"Congratulations, benefactor."
Moro nodded slightly, a smile also appeared on his face. The further back the divine weapon is, the more rare it is. The divine weapons of the first few tribulations are not difficult to find, and are generally found in the top sects.
But the Seventh Tribulation divine weapon is a watershed, and has already reached a powerful level.
Apart from the immortal sect and the imperial court, no one has the ability and foundation to independently cultivate a Seventh Tribulation divine weapon. Even for an immortal sect, it would take hundreds of years.
Chen Yuan's good fortune can be described as terrifying.
Chen Yuan smiled faintly and pointed upwards:
"Senior, don't thank me yet, the thunder tribulation has not dissipated yet."
Moro laughed heartily:
"Not bad, not bad, it has swallowed half of the True Dragon's soul, how could it only have so little foundation? It seems that the benefactor will have an Eighth Tribulation divine weapon today!"
An Eighth Tribulation divine weapon can definitely be called a rare treasure. Even the Spirit Mountain doesn't have many of them. And most importantly, this Emperor Slaughter Saber that has swallowed the Dragon Soul has a power that far exceeds ordinary divine weapons.
"Buzz..."
The Emperor Slaughter Saber trembled, and the saber cries rose everywhere.
In the nine heavens, a more terrifying pressure than before rapidly enveloped the heavens and the earth.
