Thanks To My Unlimited Investment, I'm Admired By All Races - Xianxia Chapter 331 329: Why Isn't It a Heart-Refining Tribulation?

I, Thanks To My Unlimited Investnt, Am Admired By All Races

"Patriarch?"

Jiang Yunzong was startled and imdiately realized the other party had misunderstood. He was just about to explain, "The one undergoing tribulation is not—"

But before he could finish speaking—

Not far away, space twisted.

The Jiang Clan's patriarch arrived through the air. With his hands clasped behind his back and an imposing deanor, his gaze first swept over Feng Suishan nearby before he asked:

"Yunzong, which elder of our Jiang Clan is undergoing the tribulation?"

"Uh…"

Jiang Yunzong was montarily speechless.

Feng Suishan beside him was even more confused.

Just monts ago, he had suspected that the one undergoing tribulation was the Jiang Clan patriarch himself. But now that the patriarch had appeared, it was clearly not him.

That raised the question—could it be that the Jiang Clan still had so hidden genius who had remained concealed until now, only to erge at this mont?

That level of secrecy was astonishing.

It even… escaped the notice of the clan patriarch.

Standing nearby, the Jiang Clan patriarch himself was equally puzzled. He glanced around and saw all the Jiang Clan elders present. Apart from them, he could not think of anyone within the clan capable of attempting the Saint Tribulation at such a critical mont, let alone a Ninefold Saint Tribulation.

Logically speaking, anyone capable of undergoing a ninefold Saint Tribulation would have been invincible among their peers back in the Divine Palace Realm. He should have at least heard of such a person.

Yet the one facing tribulation today was shrouded in mystery, leaving him completely baffled.

"To be honest, Patriarch, the one undergoing the tribulation is the Profound Sun Holy Son, Li Xun…" Jiang Yunzong said stiffly.

"Li Xun?!"

Both the Jiang Clan patriarch and Feng Suishan showed expressions of utter disbelief.

Li Xun's na was far too familiar to them. Recently, throughout the entire Desolate Ancient Continent, his na had beco virtually known to everyone.

Most people only noticed that Li Xun had summoned a Saint King to suppress and destroy the Spirit Clan.

But very few realized that his own strength had already reached the peak of the Divine Palace Realm—only one step away from becoming a Saint.

And now, he had actually triggered the Saint Tribulation outside the Jiang Clan… and it was a Ninefold Saint Tribulation.

This made many elders of the older generation feel deeply ashad. They had cultivated for thousands of years and were still wandering outside the Saint Realm while Li Xun had already stepped into it.

Where was the justice in that?

If nothing unexpected happened, once Li Xun passed this tribulation, when they t him again, they would probably have to address him as "Senior."

The heavenly tribulation stretched endlessly, overwhelming and boundless. It was like a spectacle in the starry sky—like countless stars exploding, forming a magnificent yet terrifying scene.

Li Xun's hair fluttered wildly, his robes charred black. Yet beneath the tattered clothing, his skin shone like flawless jade, pure and immaculate.

He raised the Azure Dragon Halberd and sent it into the clouds.

This action imdiately drew even more vast lightning, surging down like a flood. Looking out, one could see nothing but a dense mass of lightning—no other sight remained.

"So this is Li Xun? It seems he is refining his own Sacred Weapon within the lightning itself. Isn't that too unbelievable? Isn't he afraid that the heavenly tribulation will reduce his treasure to dust?"

Within the Jiang Clan, an elder exclaid in shock:

"Don't forget—back at the Demon-Sealing Conference, Li Xun once helped a crippled nobody. That nobody possessed Dao Source Immortal tal. If nothing unexpected happened, Fellow Daoist Li Xun likely has been given such immortal material by her," Jiang Yunzong said gravely.

A treasure infused with Dao Source Immortal tal could already be refined into an Imperial Weapon. It was not sothing a re Saint Tribulation could shatter.

"The one undergoing the tribulation is Li Xun?"

At this mont, more powerful figures arrived. As they looked at the scene within the sea of lightning, they were filled with awe. If Li Xun could survive today's heavenly tribulation, the Desolate Ancient Continent would likely gain another Saint of trendous strength.

Even if Li Xun never beca an Emperor in the future, the influence of this tribulation alone would be enough to leave his mark in history.

"What level of tribulation is this now?" soone asked.

"The seventh!" Jiang Yunzong replied.

It had already reached the seventh stage, yet Li Xun still had not chosen to truly fight. Relying solely on the strength of his physical body, he had co this far—making even so Saints feel ashad.

Back when they underwent tribulation, even the third or fourth stage had nearly cost them their lives. Yet Li Xun appeared completely at ease.

Boom!

Endless lightning descended again from beyond the heavens, subrging both sky and earth. The already vast ocean of lightning expanded even further outward—even affecting nurous stars.

Within the imnse tribulation, eighty-one heavenly dragons descended. Each one was lifelike, as if truly alive, containing boundless dragon might, solidified to the extre.

The mont these heavenly dragons appeared, they bared their fangs and claws, charging straight toward Li Xun.

This ti, Li Xun did not act arrogantly. He ford seals with both hands, and a supre fist intent surged forth—like an ancient Emperor waging war against powerful enemies—crushing one heavenly dragon after another.

Witnessing such a scene, many people, while amazed, gradually retreated further away.

The eighth layer of lightning tribulation had already fallen. The ninth would be the legendary Heart-Refining Tribulation. This tribulation would not only target the one undergoing it—every living being within a certain range would be affected.

The weaker one's strength, the lesser the impact; conversely, the stronger one was, the more terrifying the effect.

After retreating a full ten thousand li, everyone finally stopped and looked again toward the direction of the tribulation.

However, what happened next did not match their expectations.

After Li Xun shattered all the heavenly dragons, the Heart-Refining Tribulation did not descend. Instead, after a brief silence, endless lightning once again poured down.

This ti, all the lightning converged together. Each strand pierced through heaven and earth, shattering the void. Now fused into one, it resembled the legendary World Tree, pressing down with overwhelming force.

Even Saints would feel their scalps tingle in fear upon witnessing such power.

Every bolt of lightning within the tribulation was already terrifying to the extre. Now that all of them had condensed into one, the resulting might was utterly destructive.

Even a Saint would not dare guarantee that they could withstand it.

"How is this possible?"

Seeing the scene unfold in the distance, everyone was stunned.

"Why isn't it the Heart-Refining Tribulation?" The Jiang Clan patriarch muttered to himself.

Throughout history, Ninefold Saint Tribulations were not unheard of. Almost every ti, the first eight stages were lightning tribulations, while the ninth was the Heart-Refining Tribulation.

But why, in Li Xun's case, was the ninth still a lightning tribulation?

Could it be…

There was even a tenth stage?
