If it weren't for the Yang Devil helping him take on most of it, he would surely be dead.
No matter how strong he is, he still hasn't truly reached the next stage. His strengths might be strong, but his weaknesses are still within the Ninth Tier range.
Just like Han Dong, whose strengths have long surpassed the limits of the Ninth Tier, but it's only a single strength.
Tribulation-crossing tests the whole, not just the strengths.
...
In the south of the Wilderness, Yu Ziqing was still standing on the sacrificial altar, waiting for the final fusion to end.
The Mountain Lord's gaze fell on him, his voice also echoed in Yu Ziqing's mind.
"The person you ntioned has completed his tribulation-crossing.
He is indeed very strong and talented. With the chaotic forces of the Heavenly Tribulation becoming one strike, he didn't die.
The skin and flesh were worn away, yet he still preserved his entire skeleton. It's indeed remarkable.
The one from the Extrely Cold Forbidden Land was truly unlucky, he probably has no chance to recover now.
Your enemy is severely injured. If you wish to beat a dog when it's down, you'd better hurry.
Oh, forget it, it's too late, he's already gone."
Yu Ziqing remained calm, having already anticipated this.
"He didn't gain much from this tribulation-crossing, right?"
"Indeed, it's far from the benefits of a normal tribulation-crossing. Moreover, I don't know why the Heavenly Tribulation beca like that, with only one strongest strike.
If his source is unscathed, that's good; if it's damaged, it could be very troubleso, at least breaking through the Tenth Tier will be very difficult.
But if in such circumstances he can still break through the Tenth Tier, he should be quite powerful."
"Thank you, elder brother."
"I have sothing to ask you, haven't you thought of asking for my help? Or do you wish to avenge him personally?"
"Not really, I don't have such obsession. As long as the enemy is dead, it doesn't matter to how he dies.
Even if not dead, living a life worse than death would also make happy.
As for asking elder brother for help, if you were willing, you wouldn't ask like this, right?
Previously, you wouldn't have asked such a question out of curiosity either, right?"
"That's true, he hasn't provoked , nor has he crossed the limits.
With my status, I cannot strike to kill an emperor of the Human Divine Dynasty.
Even though he's not one anymore."
"Why? Can you tell ?" Yu Ziqing casually asked, noticing the Mountain Lord was purely bored and trying to find soone to converse with.
"I don't know if I can say it now, so I won't say it.
This is a restriction I set for myself, not to kill certain people, this will prevent from falling into the Devil Dao.
If I fall into the Devil Dao, I will be the biggest threat.
And now, in this era, I fear no one from the human race can deal with .
At least for now, as Dadui returns and the path to the Tenth Tier opens up.
When I feel you can kill , I'll tell you.
Or, you can find it yourself.
If you can find the information, that ans you can know."
Yu Ziqing nodded, sighing silently, seeing how bored the Mountain Lord had beco...
"Once my business here is settled, I'll bring so things for you, elder brother."
"Bring more wine, and more books. Also, my Jade Tablet is broken, bring more of those." The Mountain Lord imdiately added.
"..."
Yu Ziqing was speechless; that last request seed the most important!
How did the Jade Tablet break?
Perhaps it broke from listening to things too intently, getting carried away.
The Mountain Lord's nature would indeed allow such things to happen.
"Where did Old Emperor Qian go, do you know?"
"I don't know, the rank fragnts of the Extrely Cold Forbidden Land are scattered everywhere, very chaotic. I didn't see where he escaped to, probably into the Void."
"Is the Yang Devil dead?"
"He's not that easy to kill. These guys are disgustingly persistent and refuse to die. If you have ti, go and take a look; it seems there's a big problem in Dazhen."
Saying that, the Mountain Lord's gaze slowly disappeared.
Yu Ziqing gazed towards the north, his expression cold.
He certainly had no obsession with personally avenging; he only wanted Old Emperor Qian dead.
Of course, being able to personally beat Old Emperor Qian to death would be ideal.
He was well-prepared, knowing Old Emperor Qian had been plotting for years, with many secrets.
That chaotic Heavenly Tribulation, with all its strength condensed into one strike, didn't kill him, nor did it destroy his flesh.
He's certain Old Emperor Qian isn't a Body Cultivator.
Because the highest dual cultivation progress in Refining God and Body Refining Technique is Yu Ziqing himself.
Yu Ziqing had previously seen the Refining God Dao and Body Refining Technique coexist, almost parallel with restrictions before him.
For Old Emperor Qian to keep his entire skeleton and maintain his body's integrity, it definitely wasn't through Body Refining.
To have such an effect through Body Refinent, one needs to surpass the Ninth Tier limit, which is barely possible.
There's no way he could reach both the peak of Refining God and Body Cultivation.
What other secrets does he hide? They can be slowly unearthed later.
Anyway, this tribulation-crossing is over; it's truly over, with no chance for recovery; he could no longer touch his strongest aspirations.
And it has nothing to do with Yu Ziqing.
One might force a relation to Emperor Dui, but how could Emperor Dui know the exact date you chose for the tribulation-crossing? Just as the Heavenly Tribulation starts brewing, Dadui's return begins.
Don't joke around, the return of Dadui had surely been prepared many, many years ago, certainly before the date Old Emperor Qian set for his tribulation-crossing.
It was rely an untily coincidence.
If anything, it's fate's retribution for you.
Yu Ziqing collected his thoughts, gazing towards Daqian, secretly thinking.
I've done all I should, Emperor Qian, it's your turn next.
I've shown enough sincerity, the first probing and weakening plan is complete.
Even though the path to the Tenth Tier has opened, Old Emperor Qian will definitely not be among the first to break through.
This was the reason why Yu Ziqing had to let Dadui return at this ti.
With the path to the Tenth Tier closed, at most in the next three or four hundred years, it would be impossible to kill Old Emperor Qian.
If it opened normally, Old Emperor Qian would surely be among the first to advance, causing more trouble.
Now, having Dadui return and opening the path to the Tenth Tier gives everyone else a chance to raise their limits, except Old Emperor Qian cannot advance as planned.
This is the best scenario.
