Chapter 315: Holding Back Against the Heavens (2)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The advisor of the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell looked at his clumsy subordinates and scolded them.
When the small ghosts heard this, they did not dare to refute him. They carefully carried the dishes and walked into the main hall.
At this moment, hundreds of King of Hell from various realms were gathered in the main hail.
At the head of the main hall sat the ghost envoys sent by Yama King Pingdeng.
The Kings of Hell, who had always been arrogant in front of the small ghosts, were now very respectful towards the Ghost Envoy.
This was not only because the identity of the ghost envoy in front of them was far above theirs, but the other party’s strength was the strongest among all the people present. He was at the ninth level of the Apotheosis Stage cultivation and was not far from Ethereal Stage.
Among all the Kings of Hell present, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell had the lowest cultivation.
He was only at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Stage cultivation. The other Kings of Hell were basically at the Apotheosis Stage.
If the Moongazer Serpent King of Heli hadn’t used money to open the way back then, his strength wouldn’t have been enough to become the King of Hell of a realm.
This also caused the other Kings of Hell to look down on him for a long time.
They felt that this guy had gotten in through the back door and could not be compared to them.
However, all of this had changed after the Moongazer Serpent ghost realm’s performance had improved by leaps and bounds in the past hundred years.
“Moongazer Serpent, you’re amazing. You caused such a huge commotion without saying anything. Even Yama King Pingdeng knew about this and praised you. We are all envious of you.”
The Moongazer Serpent King of Hell sat in the banquet, listening to the flattery of his colleagues around him, and a smug look appeared on his iconic red face.
“No, no. I was just lucky.”
Although he said that, the other Kings of Hell didn’t really think that the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell was just lucky.
To be able to attain such a harmonious deal with the cultivators of the World of Living was not something that could be solved by simple luck.
Many of them had tried assisting their spokesperson in the World of Living, and some Kings of Hell even took action.
However, the final result was often unsatisfactory. After all, the King of Hell did not have much restraint on the cultivators in the World of Living.
And the cultivators who needed them were often unorthodox.
If they cooperated with these people, they might not even be able to collect many souls in the end. And before that, they would be tainted with a lot of karma for no reason.
Cultivators in the World of Licing can afford not to be afraid of karma and could use various methods to avoid it.
However, it was different for ghost cultivators. The damage caused by karma was ten times or a hundred times more than that of the cultivators in the World of Living.
Therefore, when they saw that the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell could obtain such great help from the World of Living cultivators without being tainted by karma, the other Kings of Hell were envious.
However, they didn’t have the ability to replicate the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell’s operating model.
Therefore, they could only watch.
Just as the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell was about to brag to his colleagues, a powerful heavenly tribulation power instantly swept over everyone.
That terrifying power made the Kings of Hell present instantly turn pale with fright.
Even the Ghost Envoy of King Pingdeng, who was sitting at the head of the table, immediately put down his wine glass and flew to the sky above the residence, looking in the direction of the power of the heavenly tribulation.
Looking at the ghost envoy at the peak of the Apotheosis Stage doing this, the other Kings of Hell followed.
Not long after, the Kings of Hell flew into the sky searching for the source of the chaos.
Soon after, everyone followed the power and arrived at the Ying Yang Intersection outside the Gates of Hell.
An area outside the intersection was covered by a large number of tribulation clouds.
“Is someone undergoing tribulation crossing?”
“It should be. Moreover, from the looks of it, it feels like the lightning tribulation of the Apotheosis Stage. However, the strange thing is, why is the power of the heavens so dense when a ghost cultivator breaks through? Shouldn’t they be dealing with the reincarnation calamity? Could it be that a World of Living cultivator chose to undergo his tribulation crossing here?”
“A World of Living cultivator transcending his tribulation here must be crazy. The Yin Yang Intersection is an intersection between the way of the heavens and reincarnation. The suppression of the two worlds here is very weak. An ordinary heavenly tribulation here would at least have 50% power.”
“Although this also means that after successfully transcending the tribulation, the blessing from the Heavens will be even more abundant, but tribulation crossing was an extremely dangerous thing. Who has such great courage?”
“Other than King Dizhang back then, 1 had never heard of anyone with such courage.”
“Shh, watch your words. King Dizhang is not someone you all can casually talk about. Although he has been in secluded cultivation for ten thousand years, a thought from such an existence can kill us on the spot. Are you tired of living?”
“Oh no, 1 was rude.”
Just as the other Kings of Hell were talking, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell finally realized who had caused such a huge commotion.
So he flew to King Pingdeng’s ghost envoy and whispered a few words.
After hearing that the person who was going through the tribulation crossing was his target for coming to the Moongazer Serpent ghost realm, the ghost envoy’s face immediately showed an interesting expression.
It seemed that this cultivator named Lu Yuan was more interesting than he had imagined.
Just the Heavenly Tribulation of the Nascent Soul Stage could cause such a huge commotion, he was definitely a five-patterned way of the heavens golden core.
At the thought of this, the ghost envoy suddenly recalled a legend.
Legend had it that if a five-patterned and above way of the heavens golden core cultivator could successfully condense a Nascent Soul, their Nascent Soul had a chance of directly attaining Innate Spirit.
Such a Nascent Soul was no longer a divine soul in the ordinary sense.
One reason why an ordinary Nascent Soul couldn’t leave a cultivator’s body for a long time was that the cultivator’s body would collapse if the Nascent Soul left the body for too long.
Another reason was that the Innate Qi in the Nascent Soul was too little. If it left the body for a long time, it would cause this portion of Innate Qi to be exhausted, causing the Nascent Soul to collapse.
However, the Innate Spirit of a Nascent Soul was different.
This was because it was condensed from pure Innate Qi. Even if it left the cultivator’s body, it could still absorb the surrounding spiritual energy on its own.
Even more extreme, cultivators with Innate Spirit could give up on their physical bodies and directly focus on the cultivation of the Nascent Soul.
After all, other than being able to leave the body for a long time, the other advantage of an Innate Spirit was its comprehension of laws.
For ordinary Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, comprehending laws was like listening to a book through a wall.
Innate Spirits, on the other hand, could directly touch the power of laws.
Comprehending laws was like eating and drinking to them.
This was the greatest advantage that Innate Spirits had over other Nascent Souls.
An Innate Spirit’s upper limit was at least an Earth Deity.
In this era, Earth Deities could be considered the top forces in the Great Thousand World.
Thinking of this, the ghost envoy looked at the heavenly tribulation not far away and became expectant.
He was very curious about whether that cultivator called Lu Yuan could use this Heavenly Tribulation to complete the condensation of the Innate Spirit.
If he could really do this, not to mention himself, even Yama King Pingdeng would have to be respectful to him.
This was he would be someone destined to become an Earth Deity.
In the face of such a monster, investing in advance was definitely not a bad thing.
At the same time, Lu Yuan also sensed the abnormality of his Heavenly Tribulation.
As early as three years ago, he already felt that he was about to face tribulation crossing.
However, he had been suppressing himself and was not in a hurry for Tribulation Crossing.
This was because he felt that his Tribulation Crossing would definitely be much more terrifying than that of an ordinary person.
For this reason, he even specially collected the situations faced by other Nascent Soul Stage cultivators while undergoing Tribulation Crossing as a reference. He had also made various arrangements based on ten times of the other party’s situation.
But even so, Lu Yuan discovered that the power of his Heavenly Tribulation this time still exceeded the scope of the normal Heavenly Tribulation that he had originally set.
He felt that the pressure from the Heavenly Tribulation was almost the same as the pressure that the Apotheosis Stage cultivator Jing Ming had exerted on him.
Lu Yuan’s expression turned extremely ugly when he thought about how he had to face a Heavenly Tribulation comparable to an Apotheosis Stage stage cultivator with a mere Nascent Soul Stage tribulation.
This was clearly bullying by the heavens!
How could they use the Heavenly Tribulation of the Apotheosis Stage for the Nascent Soul Stage!
However, Lu Yuan still had some plans for this situation.
As a steady person, Lu Yuan had always used the worst-case scenario that was ten times worse as a basis to design countermeasures.
Not only did he like to hold back against people, but he also held back against the heavens!
As everyone knew, there were usually five of the Four Heavenly Kings.
Just because he held back three times on people did not mean that he only held back against people. He also held back against the heavens.. This was his final guarantee!
