Chapter 1487: The Ancestral God’s Tribulation (2)

“Remember. The Grand Emperor Divine Bell is said to be a Dao item, engraved with the most original Great Dao which leads straight to chaos. If you comprehend all symbols, you can also become an Ancestral God!”

The entire godly world was shocked by the bell’s appearance. There was overall excitement in the air.

“A new Ancestral God? Judging by the aura, it’s coming from that direction…”

“Let me go there and take a look. Which clan’s God Emperor is advancing?”

Ancient auras were spreading from the depths of some high-ranked clans. Many old monsters who hadn’t been seen in a long time chose to reveal themselves.

!!

Above the desolate plain—

Su Ping was surprised by the sudden appearance of the bell’s illusion. At first he thought that the Rain Ancestor hadn’t given up and marched back with the artifact. But he then realized it wasn’t the case. The bell was a terrifying artifact. The Rain Ancestor would probably have the power to even suppress the Chaos Perception Dragon if he had the treasure.

This is only an illusion, not the artifact itself; even so, it’s already this powerful. It must be an artifact close to the primordial ancestor realm… Su Ping’s eyes glittered.

The Dao Glyphs were extremely weird. However, Su Ping realized that they were all part of the undying Great Dao!

There were nine of them!

Just this divine bell alone could easily suppress any Ancestral God.

There are nine undying Great Daos on the bell, which means that my cultivation is in the right path. If I see my body as an artifact, I can condense more and more undying Great Daos too. I can get nine, or even more!

Su Ping’s eyes glittered. Whether or not it was an optimum path leading to the ultimate height, he was willing to try.

Exactly at that moment, there was a surge with a scary aura.

The dense black clouds in the sky rolled like a tide, as if about to swallow the whole world.

Su Ping felt stunned for a moment. An Ancestral God’s black tribulation?

He didn’t think his undying Fire Dao universe was that good; after all, only the most exceptional geniuses in a certain realm could invoke a black tribulation.

“Everybody goes through the black tribulation to rise to the Undying State. The black tribulation was created to suppress those who aimed for the Undying State. What you’ve seen so far is just a shadow of the real thing,” said the system’s voice sounded inside Su Ping’s heart.

“Suppress? Shadow?”

Su Ping was slightly surprised. The explanation offered by the system was awfully confusing. The black tribulation was created to suppress the ones in the Undying State? Why?

Su Ping couldn’t help but ask, “Are Heavenly Tribulations really controlled by the Heavens?”

The system said, “Why else would they be called Heavenly Tribulations?”

What a great rhetorical question… Su Ping was rendered speechless. The system could have chosen not to answer in the past, while it showed willingness to explain many secrets after the store was upgraded to level 8.

“If that’s the case, wouldn’t the Heavens notice us if we transcend here?” asked Su Ping.

“Naturally.”

“Then…”

“You will know the answer later.”

Su Ping’s eyes glittered. The information revealed by the system was shocking.

All cultivators had to go through Heavenly Tribulations to advance.

The testing phenomenon was controlled by the Heavens. They would certainly know where a tribulation would take place.

However, those worlds had yet to be destroyed.

Furthermore, even the Federation’s universe had been safe until the crack in the universe became wider; only then did the Heavens break in.

The Heavens could sense all universes through the tribulations, but there were still survivors…

A cold and depressing aura descended upon Su Ping right then. He looked up and saw the black tribulation above him; the entire sky had become dark at some point. The sunny sky was quickly covered by the spreading tribulation in the far-off distance.

The whole world was covered by the black tribulation.

Depressing, maddening, cold, suffocating… Su Ping felt as if he were a hundred thousand meters deep in the water. He could hardly breathe, while his body was about to fall apart.

All his cells were telling him to run as quickly as possible. A sense of crisis he didn’t have in a long time made him shiver.

He looked at the dark sky. The God Emperor’s black tribulation was like a gentle feather in comparison, while the current one was like a heavy rock. He had the feeling that he couldn’t resist it!

Such a tribulation is controlled by the Heavens…

Did they create tribulations to erase us?

Su Ping noticed the suppressed killing intent within the tribulation. This reminded him of the human corpses in the Federation’s space, the empty universes he had seen during his escape, and how cyborgs had been hiding in tiny grains of dust.

Everything was because of the Heavens.

“Everyone has to be tested by tribulations as they cultivate. The weak are shattered and their cultivation was done in vain. The strong survive and rise to higher levels. But… It’s still a disaster!

“Why do I have to endure your tribulation?”

Su Ping’s bones expanded as he grew hundreds of meters tall, standing like an ancient mythical creature. The aura of chaos surged from his body, surrounding him like smoke. He rose to a height of 10,000 meters in the blink of an eye and stood like a massive mountain. The 108 Original Dao Glyphs surfaced on his body.

Once those Dao Glyphs were combined, they would form an undying Great Dao.

Every member of the Primitive Chaos Clan could become an Ancestral God because of their bloodline!

However, Su Ping didn’t go through that path. He condensed his undying universe on his own.

Still, the 108 Dao Glyphs on his body were already drawing onto themselves to form an undying Great Dao. His body was as sturdy as that of an Ancestral God’s. After all, he was already a chaos creature, far stronger than the gods themselves.

“Everyone can still cultivate and rise to higher levels without Heavenly Tribulations!” Fury shone in Su Ping’s eyes. He even rejected the idea, after learning that the Heavens were behind all tribulations. It was like taking a test at the age of eighty and their life becoming meaningless if the test failed.

It was outright suppression and exploitation. However, after getting used to it, everybody was proud of transcending Heavenly Tribulations.

“Life isn’t easy. There are enough hardships and challenges as it is. And yet, you set up another deadly test!” Su Ping gazed at the black clouds with hate in his eyes. “If you’re the Heavens, I will break you the same way!”

Bang!

The black lightning illuminated Su Ping’s cheeks.

A black lightning pillar descended like a furious dragon, as if ready to punish that impudent human.

Su Ping let out a roar. A mist of blood burst out from the pores on his arm and gathered to form a bloody sword. He held the sword and slashed furiously.

All the sword techniques he had learned were fused at that moment for the ultimate attack.

Destroy the tribulation!

If the Heavens want to destroy me, I will destroy the Heavens!

If the tribulation wants to punish me, I will obliterate the tribulation!

“Roar!!”

The crimson sword aura reflected Su Ping’s fury and hate. The bloody light illuminated the entire world, and spread further by billions of kilometers. Many emperors saw it.

Boom. The sword collided with the descending lightning bolt. The next moment, the bloody light pushed forth and drowned the lightning bolt, cutting deep into the pillar.

There was a bloody crack in the middle of the dark clouds. It looked like a strange eye that had just opened. It was healing quickly, however.

Su Ping didn’t stop. The undying universe surfaced behind him, and exploded with the most dazzling light.

The power from the explosion was transmitted into his arms, producing red cracks on them. The fiery power was then transferred to his hands and gathered in the bloody sword.

Su Ping roared and slashed furiously again.

The second attack was as astounding as thunder, even sharper and with a stronger momentum than the first!

It stubbornly slashed into the sky.

“Great sword!”

In the void—a few figures who had just arrived were amazed by the bloody sword, not expecting that the young man going through the tribulation had mastered such a powerful Ancestral God technique.

“He’s trying to resist the Heavenly Tribulation. How brave.”

“Back when we dealt with our tribulation, we all shrank our universes and struggled to weather through it. This world-destroying tribulation is no joke; his undying universe could be completely annihilated.”

Those Ancestral Gods thought that Su Ping’s behavior was rather crazy.
