Chapter 530: Overcoming the Nine Tribulations, Appearance of the Nine Tribulations Pagoda
The nine tribulations were primarily divided into three categories. The first three tribulations target the body, the middle three the soul, and the last three the heart.
There was also a concept of nine tribulations on Earth, but it wasn’t the same. The nine tribulations of the Supreme Mountain were merely nine tests and didn’t represent any particular philosophy.
Quickly, Ye Tian arrived at the area of the first tribulation.
The first tribulation was that of hunger.
Upon entering the area of the first tribulation, an invisible force acted upon Ye Tian, bringing forth an unprecedented sense of hunger, an immense hunger.
But if it were just hunger, that wouldn’t be much. After all, why would the Children of the Universe fear hunger? As long as one endured, there wouldn’t be any problem.
However, the key issue was that the area of the first tribulation also presented many dangers. Passing through the first tribulation wasn’t simple.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!! A large number of black wolves appeared, their eyes red, emitting a hungry emotion, and they charged towards Ye Tian.
These black wolves weren’t real but creatures formed by the power of the Supreme Mountain.
These black wolves were not weak, each comparable to the strength of a Child of the Universe, and there were many of them. A Child of the Universe in a state of extreme hunger would definitely not be in good shape.
And as time dragged on, the hunger would become more and more severe.
Fight! Although Ye Tian was hungry, his strong heart condition and will allowed him to endure. These black wolves were not very powerful to him, and he easily killed a large number of them, moving forward at a rapid pace.
Ye Tian had no intention of staying in the first tribulation. This place was of no use to him. Cultivating here would only temper his sense of hunger, which he had no interest in doing.
Quickly.
Ye Tian passed through the first tribulation area and arrived at the second.
The second tribulation was that of fatigue, where one would fall into an extremely tired state, as if one’s physical strength had been completely drained. Likewise, one would face various dangers, such as attacks from many creatures, and these creatures were stronger than those in the first tribulation.
After a series of battles, Ye Tian also passed through the second tribulation. The third tribulation was that of plague. In this tribulation, countless plague auras filled the entire area. The power of these plagues could even affect a Child of the Universe. Even Ye Tian was affected by various plagues, his body becoming weak, but the degree of weakness was very limited because his physical strength was too terrifying.
But if other Children of the Universe entered this area, it would probably be troublesome.
In the area of the plague tribulation, there were also creatures carrying plague toxins. These creatures were everywhere, and Ye Tian forcefully killed his way through the third tribulation area with his overwhelming strength.
Thus, Ye Tian overcame the first three tribulations! These first three tribulations affected only the physical state and were relatively easy, as long as one was strong enough. However, the middle three tribulations were not so simple.
The middle three tribulations affected the soul, and although Ye Tian’s soul was strong, it was only slightly stronger compared to other Eternal princes, not to a dominating extent.
Therefore, facing these middle three tribulations, Ye Tian naturally couldn’t take it lightly.
In the area of the fourth tribulation.
As soon as Ye Tian entered this area, he was attacked by the power of illusion.
The fourth tribulation was that of illusion. If one’s soul was weaker, one would be pulled into the world of illusion, forever lost in the illusion, unable to distinguish between reality and fantasy.
Immediately, Ye Tian activated the Eyes of Xumi and also deployed his soul-strengthening talent, greatly increasing his soul strength. Combined with his heart condition reaching the sixth level and the numerous reincarnation experiences in the Six Paths Reincarnation Pagoda.
Therefore, Ye Tian was not affected by the illusion and easily passed through the fourth tribulation. However, this fourth tribulation was the simplest of the middle three tribulations.
After passing through the fourth tribulation, Ye Tian arrived at the fifth tribulation, which involved enduring soul attacks.
All princes possessed soul defense items, which are essential for protecting the soul from being instantly killed by soul talents.
After all, the soul was often a weak point for some princes. It wouldn’t do to have great physical strength but be obliterated at the soul level by the soul talent of a lesser prince.
Therefore, powerful warriors typically refined one or two soul defense artifacts.
In theory, having soul defense artifacts should make passing through the fifth tribulation not difficult. However, as soon as Ye Tian entered the fifth tribulation, he found his soul defense artifacts restricted by a force.
Clearly, relying on external objects to pass through the fifth tribulation was impossible. The mechanism of the Supreme Mountain limited reliance on external aids.
Whoosh! A phantom saber thrust towards Ye Tian, who did not dodge but endured the strike head-on.
With a thud, the phantom saber struck Ye Tian’s soul, shattering instantly like a wooden saber against stone.
“This strike isn’t strong, but this is just the periphery of the fifth tribulation area, where soul attacks are fewer and weaker. If I continue forward, the soul attacks will become more frequent and much stronger!”
Ye Tian pressed on, facing increasingly frequent and powerful soul attacks.
At first, Ye Tian could have dodged these soul attacks, but deeper into the fifth tribulation area, dodging became impossible due to their density and incredible speed. He had no choice but to endure them head-on.
Even with Ye Tian’s soul strength, overcoming the fifth tribulation required enduring some pain, but it wasn’t dangerous for him. After all, he possessed talents for soul defense and soul enhancement. If even he couldn’t pass through the fifth tribulation, then no one could.
Ye Tian dared not linger in the fifth tribulation area. Although he had activated his soul enhancement and soul defense talents, they still consumed some soul power. Moreover, the soul attacks here were too dense. Staying here too long and exhausting his soul power was no joke.
Confident as he was, Ye Tian wasn’t reckless.
Thus, Ye Tian hastened through the fifth tribulation area and entered the sixth.
The sixth tribulation area, the last of the middle three tribulations, was not only the most difficult but also the most troublesome.
This tribulation involved enduring suppression on the soul. Deeper into the sixth tribulation area, the suppression became increasingly terrifying, to the point where weaker souls could be crushed into nothingness.
Walking through the sixth tribulation area, Ye Tian felt a heavy burden on his soul.
This suppression wasn’t a soul attack, so soul defense talents were ineffective; only soul enhancement talents could help.
After activating his soul strengthening talent, Ye Tian swiftly moved through the sixth tribulation area.
Just as he was about to leave the sixth tribulation, he spotted a figure: “Prince Tianxuan!”
Ye Tian was slightly surprised.
At that moment, Prince Tianxuan’s complexion was somewhat pale, clearly having suffered in the sixth tribulation area.
Prince Tianxuan also saw Ye Tian and, noticing Ye Tian’s normal complexion and swift pace, as if he hadn’t endured much pain, realized that Ye Tian must have a unique method to counter the soul suppression force.
Whoosh! Ye Tian and Prince Tianxuan left the sixth tribulation area one after the other. As they entered the seventh tribulation area, Prince Tianxuan stopped to rest and didn’t proceed, while Ye Tian didn’t take a break and directly entered the seventh tribulation area.
The seventh, eighth, and ninth tribulations target the heart. In other words, only those with strong heart conditions could pass these three tribulations. Eternal princes with heart conditions only reaching the fifth level couldn’t pass these tribulations, only those whose heart condition reached the limit of the fifth level and were on the verge of the sixth could hope to overcome these three tribulations.
With his heart condition reaching the sixth level, Ye Tian was full of confidence. freeweɓnøvel.com
Boom! A terrifying phantom appeared before Ye Tian, gazing at him and emitting a resounding celestial tone: “Why do you cultivate?”
Why, why, why… Countless voices flooded Ye Tian’s heart, questioning him. This seemed not just a query but an attack, targeting his innermost being and shaking his spirit.
“To strengthen myself, to avoid being bullied, for eternal immortality, to stand at the pinnacle of the universe and look down upon all beings. In a world where the strong prey on the weak, I refuse to be the weaker party!”
Walking forward, Ye Tian spoke loudly and clearly, showing no fear.
Question after question was posed, and Ye Tian answered each one without slowing his pace.
This might seem like a simple Q&A, but Ye Tian was well aware that if his momentum weakened and his heart condition retreated, he would be crushed.
This was a battle of the heart, a clash of heart conditions! It appeared easy but was fraught with danger. Ye Tian only managed to quickly pass through the challenges because of his strong inner self and having reached the sixth level of heart condition.
For an invincible Eternal prince like Prince Tianxuan, if his heart condition hadn’t reached the sixth level, passing the seventh tribulation would require some effort.
Before long, Ye Tian finally passed through the seventh tribulation.
The eighth tribulation directly affected one’s emotions. Dark shadows whispered ancient languages all around, their countless noises disturbing Ye Tian’s emotions, seemingly trying to unleash the hatred, bloodlust, and worries within him.
If one couldn’t withstand it, they would truly fall into a passive state and be unable to pass this tribulation.
With the strength of his sixth-level heart condition, Ye Tian firmly stabilized his heart and walked step by step, eventually overcoming the ninth tribulation after some time.
It must be said, the ninth tribulation was indeed difficult. Other first-tier Eternal princes with only a fifth-level limit heart condition might need to prepare some means to pass the ninth tribulation.
Now, the nine tribulations were over.
Ye Tian saw a pagoda ahead, which was none other than the Nine Tribulations Pagoda!
