Chapter 660: Only a Tribulation Like This Is Worthy of Su Xuanjun
Su Yi stood in midair, drinking as he gazed into the stars, his blue robes fluttering in the ocean winds.
Ning Sihua and the others stood not far away. All of them were gazing into the sky.
The booming thunder was intense, like distant divine mountains slamming into one another. A terrifying, oppressive majesty permeated heaven and earth.
Everyone’s hearts quivered, and they felt suffocated.
“What’s happening?”
“Who knows?”
“The heavens have shifted…”
They conversed amongst themselves, all of them alarmed and uncertain.
“Don’t panic. This is a rare stroke of fortune. Once it starts, how much you can obtain is up to you, though,” Su Yi said leisurely.
He’d long since guessed the reason behind tonight’s unexpected development, and he was aware of the sudden change to the Origins of the Azure. That meant that, before long, the incomparably overflowing source power of the Grand Dao would pour onto the world!
“Fortune?”
The crowd’s eyes lit up with eagerness.
Time slipped by.
Deep within the dome of heaven, the sound of the Grand Dao boomed like thunder, and it only increased in intensity. An increasingly dense and oppressive air permeated heaven and earth.
Throughout the Azure Continent, everyone, cultivators and ordinary people alike, had long since been startled into action.
Deep within the mountains and forests, even the Yin spirits, spirit beasts, and their ilk were agitated and uneasy. They were waiting for something, and their hearts were full of longing.
Suddenly——
Boom!
An indescribable boom reverberated throughout the skies of the Azure Continent.
At that moment, every living thing on the continent felt their heart tremble, and their expressions shifted.
Those with deep cultivation bases gazed into the sky and saw a wave of the overflowing source power of the Grand Dao, descending upon the continent like a rain of radiant starlight.
The rain was dense and boundless, and it illuminated the entire inky black night sky.
As if light were descending upon the human world and casting away the darkness!
“My heavens!”
“This….”
“Don’t tell me the Radiant Epoch is upon us?”
Throughout the world, countless voices rose in uproar.
This unbelievable scene left countless people astonished.
Upon closer inspection, the rain of the light of the Grand Dao was like countless shooting stars of varying sizes. Their radiance was dazzlingly bright and eye-catching.
Some were as searingly bright as the sun.
Others were dim and faint.
Some were like massive serpents tens of thousands of feet long.
There was no doubt that the source energy contained within the different “raindrops” of Dao Light was different.
Even so, the world’s cultivators practically went mad. They leaped into action, one after another, using every means at their disposal to vie for good fortune!
And a few ancient factions activated grand formations they’d long since prepared for this purpose and took out matchless secret treasures, all for the sake of gathering the good fortune raining down from the heavens.
It was just as Su Yi said. Tonight’s good fortune belonged to the masses of the Azure Continent; no one could monopolize it.
“We cannot let such good fortune go to waste. Go!”
Still holding his wine jug in one hand, Su Yi’s other hand summoned the Abstruse God Sword, then flung it.
Whoosh!
The Abstruse God Sword flew through the air. Suddenly, an enormous illusory bird appeared around the blade. This was none other than the Netherflame Demon Sparrow soul essence!
In the blink of an eye, the Abstruse God Sword shot into the depths of the sky. The Netherflame Demon Sparrow, meanwhile, devoured the shooting star-like power of the Grand Dao in a mad frenzy.
Meanwhile, Su Yi opened his mouth and spat something out.
A bundle of origin energy floated up. It was chaotic, with no definable shape. As its light circulated, it emanated a shocking aura of the Grand Dao.
The Seed of the Azure!
“Hah!” Su Yi circulated his cultivation base, and his voice boomed like thunder as he raised the Seed of the Azure into the air.
Boom!
Ning Sihua and the others felt a pricking pain in their eyes.
They felt as if he’d raised a miniature sun, its boundless radiance illuminating everything within a hundred thousand feet!
Immediately afterward, an unbelievable scene unfolded——
Deep in the night sky, the rain of countless “shooting stars” manifested of the Grand Dao changed course as if they’d been summoned. The rain was now headed directly for the Sea of Chaotic Spirits!
As far as the eye could see, a rain of light descended upon the ocean!
It was an astonishing spectacle.
The rain of Dao Light was multi-colored, dazzling, and boundlessly radiant. Its hues tinged and illuminated the entirety of the enormous Sea of Chaotic Spirits.
Ning Sihua and the others froze, rooted to the spot, and their hearts shook.
This… what is this, if not a miracle!?
“Don’t just stand there! Hurry up and start gathering it!” Su Yi’s calm voice resounded through the air.
The others reacted as if awakening from a dream. All of them quickly got to work.
Whoosh!
Wen Lingxue shot through the air, stretched out her hand, and pulled a ten-foot-wide “raindrop” of the Grand Dao toward her.
“It feels wonderful…!” Her clear, beautiful features looked intoxicated. She felt as if a warm current of the Grand Dao were flowing through her entire body, nourishing everything it touched. Even her cultivation base was purified and sublimated.
“What mysterious power!”
“It seems… the bottleneck in my cultivation suddenly disappeared…”
“My heavens! Just what kind of power is this?”
The group instantly burst into uproar. Ning Sihua, Ying Que, Yuan Heng, Bai Wenqing, Cha Jin, and several others were all here to gather the power of the Grand Dao. All of them looked excited; they were practically mad with delight.
When Su Yi saw this, he couldn’t help but smile.
The Origins of the Azure were the source of the Azure Continent. They contained the pure, primordial power of the Grand Dao. Power like that was naturally far beyond the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Never mind cultivators; even ordinary mortals could receive enormous benefits from this power!
With such power nourishing them, even wild vegetation would flourish with shocking vitality.
“After tonight, I wonder how many people will achieve breakthroughs, and how many will achieve rapid growth in their cultivation…” Su Yi muttered to himself.
He held the Seed of the Azure aloft. The shooting stars of the Grand Dao fell like rain on all sides. Some fell into the ocean, while his companions gathered some of the others.
But the Seed of the Azure absorbed the bulk of it!
Meanwhile, deep within the dome of heaven, the Abstruse God Sword hummed continuously, as if whooping for joy. The illusory figure of a Netherflame Demon Sparrow repeatedly devoured the light of the Grand Dao, simply beside itself with joy.
Su Yi thought for a moment, then took out the Demonic Womb. “Little turtle, there’s quite a bit of good fortune up for grabs, but don’t get greedy. Take only a suitable amount. Otherwise, it will only hurt your attempt to restart your cultivation.”
Xuan Ning’s respectful voice emanated from within the Demonic Womb. “Master, your disciple shall assiduously carry out your orders!”
Weng!
The Demonic Womb lit up, and it seemed to inhale, drawing the rain of Dao Light from all sides. It poured continuously into the Demonic Womb.
Su Yi took a sip of wine and waited in silence.
The light of the Grand Dao poured down on him, again and again, then soundlessly disappeared.
This was the source power of the Grand Dao. He gathered it within his body, but he didn’t refine it.
Even if he refined it now, it would do him no good.
He’d already reached the pinnacle of the Gathering Stars Realm. He didn’t need this power to nourish him.
However…
Although no one else knew it, Su Yi had sensed his opportunity to break through!
Today is the second day of the second month, the day the dragon raises its head, the day of awakening insects, and the day when everything returns to life. Isn’t it a chance to achieve a qualitative metamorphosis of the Grand Dao for me, too?
I no longer have any mental blocks. My Dao Heart is without flaw, and my cultivation has reached the pinnacle of the Gathering Stars Realm. I’ve long since exceeded my past self at the same level…
Furthermore, tonight, good fortune is raining down from the heavens. No matter how terrifying this tribulation is, there’s nothing to fear…?Su Yi thought to himself.
His aura was increasingly calm and at ease.
Time slipped by.
A little less than ten minutes later, the Dao Light raining down from the dome of heaven abruptly decreased.
Su Yi wasn’t at all surprised.
The Radiant Epoch wasn’t yet upon them. This was just an unusually large portion of the Origins of the Azure’s power feeding back into the world.
Even so, the rain of Dao Light was sufficient to influence countless lives!
Hm?
Suddenly, Su Yi’s gaze shifted, and he looked toward the distant horizon.
An ink-like shadow was silently spreading. After just a few breaths of time, it showed signs of blotting out the sun. It had already blanketed half the sky.
It was a dense tribulation cloud!
The tribulation cloud blocked even the seemingly endless rain of Dao Light!
At the same time, a destructive, terrifying aura filled the skies above the Sea of Chaotic Spirits.
It was as if the entire area had suddenly sunk into nigh-apocalyptic darkness!
“This…” Ning Sihua’s hair stood on end. She and the others all stopped what they were doing.
Their bodies stiffened, and their expressions shifted dramatically.
The tribulation clouds appeared silently out of nowhere, but the invisible, destructive air of an impending tribulation bore down on their minds and souls, making them quiver. Chills coursed through their entire bodies.
“This is my tribulation. No need to be nervous. Just seek refuge within the ruins of the Immortals’ Sword House,” Su Yi said calmly.
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand.
Clang!
The Abstruse God Sword ceased gathering the power raining from the sky, blurred into a streak of flowing light, and landed in Su Yi’s outstretched hand.
Ning Sihua and the others hurriedly returned to the ruins. They dared not delay.
“Come back, little turtle,” ordered Su Yi.
Xuan Ning’s voice emanated from within the Demonic Womb. “Master, I wish to pre-emptively congratulate you on overcoming your tribulation, proving your Dao, and entering the Spiritual Manifestation Realm!”
Su Yi smiled, opened his mouth, and swallowed.
The Demonic Womb transformed into a beam of light and returned to the Origin Palace in his dantian alongside the Seed of the Azure.
Then, Su Yi gazed into the sky and continued waiting.
The tribulation clouds continuously gathered overhead. They were increasingly dense, piled up like an enormous black mountain as they sealed off the entire stretch of sky.
The boundless, destructive aura of a tribulation threw the air currents into disarray, and a terrifying atmosphere enveloped the vast Sea of Chaotic Spirits.
Beneath the dome of heaven, Su Yi’s clothing fluttered around him. His profound, distant gaze shone with a hint of surprise.
A moment later, his faint surprise gave way to delight and eagerness.
This Tribulation of Spiritual Manifestation really was unprecedented!
Throughout the 108,000 years of his past life, he’d never once heard of anyone undergoing such a massive tribulation.
The tribulation’s aura even contained traces of a strange, taboo power!
It unquestionably exceeded the bounds of Su Yi’s understanding.
However, that was exactly what he was hoping for!
Back when he left the Great Xia, he realized that his Tribulation of Spiritual Manifestation would be utterly unpredictable.
Everything happening now was unquestionable proof that he’d been right on the mark!
“If my tribulation were too ordinary, what would there be to look forward to?” Su Yi threw back his head, drained his jug of wine, and casually tossed it aside.
“Only a tribulation like this is worthy of Su Xuanjun. I didn’t reincarnate and cultivate anew for nothing!”
