Chapter 1061: Chapter 131: Transformation Heavenly Tribulation (Part 2)
“So, you can’t be Ling’er, and you’re not worthy of calling yourself her!”
The words ceased, and the blood hand that had already reached close suddenly halted, just less than two inches away from Bai Yue’s face.
The next mont, the blood claw shattered, turning into a mass of blood mist that dispersed into nothingness, and a ghastly wail echoed throughout the City Lord Mansion.
“Ah!!!”
Shangguan Jingling clutched her head tightly, her face contorted in pain, as if enduring imnse suffering.
Bai Yue looked at this scene sowhat at a loss. Originally, when he found himself unable to move, he had planned to face death nobly, so he could reunite with Ling’er in the afterlife.
Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly fell inexplicably. He didn’t quite know how to react for a mont.
“Husband! Run quickly!!”
Just as he was in a state of bewildernt, a woman’s voice suddenly rang in his ear.
Upon hearing this, Bai Yue was greatly shaken, for he couldn’t have been more familiar with this voice. Who else could it be if not his Ling’er?
His eyes imdiately locked onto Shangguan Jingling in front of him. The words just now were indeed spoken by her.
His mind raced, a sudden realization dawned on him. In that instant, Bai Yue understood what had transpired.
The person before him was indeed Ling’er, but for so reason, another monster had taken control of her body, and it was this monster that attempted to kill him.
Thinking of this, Bai Yue inexplicably felt a strong sense of relief.
His Ling’er had not changed; it was all the demon’s doing!
At this mont, his limbs suddenly relaxed. The oppressive power on his body instantly vanished, and his wife’s voice ca to his ears once more.
“Husband! Leave here quickly! I can’t hold on much longer! Ah!!”
Shangguan Jingling held her head with one hand and pointed with the other hand towards the door. The barrier outside also disappeared at this mont, creating the perfect opportunity to leave.
However, Bai Yue did not leave imdiately. Instead, he approached his wife, wanting to help her break free from the demon’s control. He couldn’t bring himself to abandon her and escape alone.
But how could a re mortal like him break the spell of this demon?
Bai Yue suddenly realized that even if he stayed, he wouldn’t be able to do anything.
“Die! You must die!”
Shangguan Jingling suddenly lifted her head, her face engulfed in black aura, veins bulging, and her voice once again turned hoarse and low.
Bai Yue shivered all over, retreating several steps.
Fortunately, Shangguan Jingling’s true consciousness returned, once again suppressing the intruder, while urgently urging Bai Yue to leave.
“Husband… under our bed… under the bed there is… there is…”
Her voice grew weaker, clearly she was struggling to hold on.
Bai Yue’s eyes turned red, appearing almost delirious.
Even though he wanted to stay and help his wife, reason told him that remaining would be useless and would waste her efforts.
With gritted teeth, blood trickling from the corners of his mouth, Bai Yue took a long look at Shangguan Jingling’s face, and then used his movent technique to swiftly run towards the courtyard gate.
As he left, the barrier around the courtyard reopened, once again obscuring the space inside.
“Roar!!!”
From behind, an extrely furious roar ca, and Bai Yue could clearly feel a figure rapidly approaching him.
He dared not look back and promptly pushed his inner strength to the limit, using the fastest speed of his life to flee from the place.
However, for a re mortal to escape from the hands of a Great Demon is not that easy.
Even if he were among the top thirty experts in today’s martial arts ranking, it wouldn’t be possible.
Fortunately, at this mont, a startling thunder exploded in the sky, the surroundings went dim in an instant, and a vast thundercloud began to gather over the City Lord Mansion.
The aura behind him also montarily stagnated and let out an unwilling roar before retreating back into the courtyard locked by the barrier.
The Heavenly Tribulation had arrived.
…
In the inn, Pei Laoliu, who had been ditating, was startled awake by the thunderous roar, and quickly moved to the window, his gaze shocked as he looked at the massive thundercloud in the sky.
“Is this… soone crossing a tribulation…?”
Master Liu possessed sharp insight and imdiately guessed what was happening over there.
The scene before him was truly extraordinarily shocking; the terrifying thundercloud covered almost half of the city, with endless bright white lightning rolling within, seemingly ready to strike at any mont.
Pei Laoliu may have never undergone a true tribulation, but there was hardly any other explanation for such a celestial anomaly; if it was not the legendary Heavenly Tribulation, what else could it be?
“Master Liu!!”
Outside, Yan Jiantong and others knocked on the door urgently, and only after receiving Master Liu’s permission did they hurriedly push their way in.
“Master Liu! What happened outside? Is it possible that a monster is casting a spell?”
They all appeared sowhat flustered at this mont, as the terrifying dark cloud in the sky was too enormous and overwhelming, full of murderous intent.
If such a thundercloud were to fall, the area it covered would surely et a fate of widespread devastation, wouldn’t it?
Pei Laoliu gazed solemnly at the sky, silent until Li Qiang, unable to hold back, asked again, at which point he shook his head and said:
“It is not sorcery; it’s a Heavenly Tribulation!”
“Heavenly Tribulation!?”
All those present were disciples of the Tianyuan Sect and were quite familiar with the concept of a Heavenly Tribulation.
Initially, they hadn’t made the connection because they hadn’t encountered it before.
Now, upon hearing Master Liu’s explanation, they all ca to their senses.
“Could it be… there are other cultivators in Han Yue City?”
Yan Jiantong asked, disbelief evident in his voice:
“I rember reading in the sect’s records that the power of a Heavenly Tribulation is astounding, and only after passing it can one reach the next realm…”
“But according to the records, even the weakest Heavenly Tribulation can only be withstood by a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator. Could it be that the friend in this city has broken through the Golden Core and is condensing their Nascent Soul?”
He analyzed, displaying the results of his studies in the Tianyuan Sect over the past month.
Li Qiang and Li Mu, standing nearby, looked at him with expressions of admiration.
However, Master Liu shook his head again, saying:
“What you said, Ziyuan, is correct, and yet it isn’t… This Heavenly Tribulation is indeed imnsely powerful, and to attract it, one must be a cultivator of at least Golden Core Stage Great Perfection at the weakest…”
“Moreover, during an attack, this Heavenly Tribulation will almost never affect other areas; all its power will be concentrated on the Tribulation Crossing person, making the whole process extrely perilous…”
At this point, Pei Laoliu suddenly changed the subject.
“But, don’t forget, besides us Human Cultivators, there are also Demon Cultivators in this world! This might not be a Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation but a Transformation Heavenly Tribulation of the Demon Race!”
His words sent shock waves through the other three present.
They were very clear about what a Transformation Heavenly Tribulation was.
It could be said that the strength difference between a pre-transformation and post-transformation demon was like night and day.
In fact, according to the Tianyuan Sect’s records, demons that haven’t reached the Transformation Stage are not even considered true demons, rely demon beasts.
Only after transformation, when a demon breaks the constraint of the Demon Core and tamorphoses into a Devil Infant, does their strength soar, enough to overpower human cultivators of the sa realm.
After all, the cultivation process for demons is even more challenging compared to humans, requiring more rigorous training.
But once they break through the Transformation, it’s a leap through the Dragon Gate, becoming a formidable Great Demon.
And right now, in Han Yue City, it seems a Great Demon is about to co forth.
If the other party really succeeds in breaking through, the consequences will be unimaginable.
“This demon must be the one that’s been lurking in the city… I had planned to rest for a day, waiting for my spiritual power to fully recover before seeking it out, but I didn’t expect it to break through first… This is a troubling situation, indeed…”
Pei Laoliu gazed at the sky over there solemnly, a hint of retreat forming in his heart.
