Chapter 1615 - 473: Brother-in-law, Didn’t You Survive the Supreme Tribulation? (Second Update)

Upon hearing Shen Juefeng’s words, Zhou Qing’s heart also trembled.

Second Uncle slightly furrowed his brows, "Did you rely completely on yourself to get through it?"

"Exactly." Shen Juefeng nodded, his gaze became profound, "Years ago, I happened upon an ancient manuscript which detailed the true mysteries of the Supreme Tribulation."

"Those seemingly destructive thunders actually contain the power of Heaven and Earth’s creation, offering endless benefits such as tempering the flesh, washing the meridians, and transforming the Divine Soul."

At this point, Shen Juefeng’s voice grew somber, "Back then, I thought, if I could pass this tribulation, it would prove my fate was not to end; if I couldn’t... at least I could join Qingci sooner."

"All these years, I’ve constantly been missing her."

Hearing this, Shen Lieyang’s eyes turned red, full of remorse.

He finally understood that years ago, his fourth brother faced the tribulation with the determination to die.

And the root of all this was his own actions back then.

Shen Yunzhou hesitated, unsure what to say, but eventually looked at Zhou Qing, "Brother-in-law, didn’t you also pass the Supreme Tribulation? How did it feel?"

As soon as these words came out, the entire hall fell silent, everyone looked sharply at Zhou Qing.

Shen Juefeng immediately adjusted his emotions and raised his head abruptly, "You passed the Supreme Tribulation?"

Realizing his slip, Shen Yunzhou quickly covered his mouth.

Zhou Qing appeared calm, "To be precise, it wasn’t a complete Supreme Tribulation. According to Han Yi’s assessment, its power was only a tenth of a normal Supreme Tribulation."

"What exactly happened?" Shen Juefeng asked eagerly, his face full of confusion.

How could a Spirit Severing Realm cultivator trigger a Supreme Tribulation?

This completely defied cultivation norms!

Zhou Qing first glanced at Second Uncle, who understood something in his heart.

Zhou Qing continued to explain, "Years ago when I broke through from Divinity Transformation Perfection to Spirit Severing Realm, Han Yi and others protected me."

"At that time, the Supreme Tribulation unexpectedly appeared, but I must say, without using anything, the heavenly tribulation was truly beneficial to enhancing myself."

This answer shocked both Shen Juefeng and Shen Lieyang completely.

Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator triggering the Supreme Tribulation?

And successfully passing it?

Such an incredible thing, if not heard with one’s own ears, was simply hard to believe.

Shen Juefeng finally understood why his son-in-law could cross realms to slay Supremes with Spirit Severing Realm cultivation.

The potential and prowess of a strong cultivator had already begun to manifest in the Divinity Transformation Realm.

"Is it Four Flowers Gathering at the Crown?" Second Uncle quietly asked after the shock.

Zhou Qing subtly nodded, "Indeed. The four flowers absorbed all the Power of Thunder Tribulation, and the energy obtained was unimaginable, the effect of tempering the flesh was astounding."

Upon hearing this, Second Uncle’s eyes flashed brilliantly, a decision formed in his heart.

"Good!" Shen Juefeng suddenly laughed heartily, slapping Zhou Qing’s shoulder heavily, "The Supreme Tribulation is extremely dangerous, anyone who reaches that point is a genius of the times. Since you’ve had the experience..."

He turned solemn, "Although as your father-in-law, I hope for your safety, I must say, if that day truly comes, try not to use the Tribulation Transformation Map."

"The Supreme Tribulation is both a calamity and an opportunity. Passing it through your own strength will greatly benefit your future cultivation. This battle with Bai Fengyin deeply enlightened me."

Zhou Qing nodded thoughtfully, "I will keep my father-in-law’s instruction in mind."

"But it’s still too early to talk about these things, I’ve only been in the late stage for five years since my breakthrough, there’s still a long way to reach the true Supreme Realm."

Although Zhou Qing said this, a breakthrough seemed imminent, as if he saw a previously unseen path of cultivation.

He had the Demon-Suppressing Golden Bone, the Four Flowers Gathering at the Crown, and was now cultivating Purple Gold Thunder Arc.

These opportunities, rare for ordinary people, were now all gathered in him.

"Perhaps... it really can be tried when the time comes." he thought to himself.

At this moment, Second Uncle suddenly spoke with a loud voice, "Since my family-in-law can successfully cross the tribulation without external aid, how could I be content to fall behind?"

Shen Juefeng’s face changed abruptly upon hearing this, "Absolutely not! At that time, I faced it with the determination to die, neither prepared nor seeking someone to protect me, I just found a secluded spot..."

"I understand!" Second Uncle interrupted, his eyes like a torch, "My heart intent is resolved, I should actually thank you for awakening me."

Shen Juefeng, anxious, looked towards Zhou Qing, his gaze full of pleading.

The Supreme Tribulation is extremely treacherous. The fact he passed it was purely a matter of survival from a dead-end, such luck shouldn’t be easily mimicked.

Seeing Second Uncle’s steadfast gaze, Zhou Qing suddenly smiled, "I believe in Second Uncle!"

He knew better than anyone Second Uncle’s foundation — the profound fortune, the extraordinary talent, far beyond any ordinary person.

Second Uncle, hearing this, revealed a proud smile.

He looked around at everyone, speaking aloud, "Then it’s set, in seven days, I’ll rely on my family-in-law for protection."

"Are you really going to face the tribulation this soon? Shouldn’t you prepare a bit more?" Shen Juefeng furrowed his brow, his tone full of concern.

Regretting his slip earlier, he worried about what would happen if anything went wrong with Second Uncle, how he would be accountable to Zhou Qing.

Second Uncle laughed heartily, waving his hand, "Life and death are determined by fate, success and failure lie in heaven, what’s that to do with you? Don’t worry unnecessarily!"

Then he turned to Zhou Qing, his eyes softening, "You choose the location for the tribulation crossing. In these days, I just want to take Yaoyao out and roam, relax my mind a bit."

Zhou Qing nodded knowingly, "Alright."

A simple word, yet full of trust.

After Second Uncle left, Shen Juefeng still wouldn’t give up, "Are you truly not going to persuade him?"

Seeing Zhou Qing already rising, "Father-in-law, where do you feel is suitable for the third tail’s crossing? Why don’t you take me to have a look."

Looking at his son-in-law’s calm demeanor, Shen Juefeng sighed, "You two, truly are carved from the same mold with stubbornness."

...

Seven days later, a certain barren mountain range in the Central Domain’s third tail.

Zhou Qing stood in the air, his gaze intently focused on the meditative figure below.

Second Uncle sat silently, without even arranging the most basic concealment array.

The sun shone brightly in the sky, yet Zhou Qing inexplicably felt a sense of nervousness.

The plan was for Shen Juefeng to protect him, but before leaving, Second Uncle suddenly changed his mind: "In a desperate situation, one finds life. Having a Supreme Realm present would foster a sense of dependency."

Left with no choice, Zhou Qing had to allow his father-in-law and others to remain at the inn, accompanying Second Uncle alone for the tribulation.

Just as Zhou Qing was pondering, the clear skies over the mountain range darkened unexpectedly.

Second Uncle slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, which unexpectedly didn’t disperse but transformed into a white streak in the air.

He looked up at the sky, his murky old eyes shining brilliantly.

"It’s coming."

Zhou Qing also looked up, seeing the boundless clear sky suddenly change color.

A mass of dark clouds appeared out of nowhere, swiftly covering the entire sky.

The tumultuous tribulation clouds were like an overturned ink pool, with terrifying purple-gold lightning streaks flashing occasionally within the night-like black layers, emitting spine-chilling "crackling" sounds.

With just one glance, Zhou Qing felt a cold chill crawling up his spine, his body hairs stood on end.

The speed at which these tribulation clouds gathered was astonishingly fast, ten times quicker than the pseudo-Supreme Tribulation he experienced years ago!
