Chapter 215: Refining the Tribulation
“ No……”
Ancestor Xutian and the others watched as Li Tianwei ignored all of their offensive methods and headed straight toward Old Devil Wangxin and Elder Kongxuan.
At this moment, they already knew the outcome. No matter how they thought about it, they had never imagined that the four of them joining forces would not even be able to delay Li Tianwei for a single moment.
They even began to doubt whether they were truly at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, whether they really represented the strongest combat power of the current cultivation world.
Deathly silence. An empty, voidlike aura spread across the surroundings.
Before their eyes, Li Tianwei had already closed in, arriving right in front of Old Devil Wangxin and Elder Kongxuan.
No matter what methods they used, once they fell into the shattered Manifestation behind Li Tianwei, they completely sank to an inferior level. Before the Manifestation, any kind of power found it difficult to suppress the absolute quality of Li Tianwei’s Manifestation.
“ Don’t, no, no, no……”
Old Devil Wangxin screamed loudly, but it was useless. Li Tianwei had already completely broken through all of his methods and directly reached out, pressing his hand onto that fat face wrinkled into a lump.
It looked as though Li Tianwei had grabbed hold of a soft steamed bun, his palm sinking straight into the layers of fat.
“ I’ve caught you.”
At the moment he touched Old Devil Wangxin, Li Tianwei’s voice sounded.
A deathly, silent aura surged out from Li Tianwei’s body.
The suffocating sense of death enveloped Old Devil Wangxin. As a Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivator, when had he ever felt such despair?
This feeling was as though he had returned to the time when he had first embarked on the path of cultivation, encountering that Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator. Back then, as a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator, a single thought from that Foundation Establishment cultivator would have been enough to completely annihilate him.
Now, that feeling had returned. The suffocating despair caused Old Devil Wangxin to struggle frantically, continuously unleashing all kinds of sinister and evil techniques and curses.
For a moment, the sky was filled with ghostly wails and wolfish howls. Ghostly qi spread, skeletal spell seals surged forth, yet when such power fell upon Li Tianwei, it had no effect whatsoever.
“ The sins on your body are far too heavy. Let me cleanse you.”
Li Tianwei directly ignored those offensive methods and spoke calmly.
“ Don’t, don’t.”
Upon hearing Li Tianwei’s words, Old Devil Wangxin felt a strong sense of foreboding and struggled as he shouted.
As Li Tianwei’s words fell, no one present knew why, but they all felt a chill down their backs.
“ Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity, cleanse his sins!”
In an instant, an energy of extreme purity erupted from Li Tianwei’s body, instantly covering the entire Heaven and Earth.
Endless white radiance illuminated the world, as though a brilliant white sun had descended. Pure, pristine, supreme virtuous intent spread everywhere.
For reasons unknown, even the ongoing great battle at the Sacred Land of Lingxu came to a halt under the pressure of this erupting power.
“ What kind of power is this……”
“ No, it hurts, it’s bitter, what is that?”
Old Devil Wangxin, who was seized by Li Tianwei, screamed loudly, as though he were experiencing endless agony and despair.
Yet for Li Tianwei, all he had done was fuse the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity into Old Devil Wangxin’s body.
A fellow so steeped in sin had to be thoroughly cleansed. Otherwise, he would only completely contaminate everything.
Under the eruption of Li Tianwei’s Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity, Old Devil Wangxin’s body visibly began to shrink. His originally ball-like obese form started to melt away.
Very quickly, the bizarre mutated form produced by the tribulation vanished completely. In its place was an increasingly thin figure, as the power within Old Devil Wangxin’s body visibly continued to dissipate.
“ Don’t, my power, my power, I want to become an Immortal.”
“ You monster, you great demon, you’re actually refining me.”
Sensing the changes to his body, Old Devil Wangxin struggled and shouted, but it was all in vain.
“ Hic.”
“ I’m merely cleansing the sins on your body.”
After hearing Old Devil Wangxin’s words, Li Tianwei could not help but let out a hiccup before replying.
“ You, you……”
Seeing the satisfied expression on Li Tianwei’s face, along with that hiccup, Old Devil Wangxin’s face was filled with disbelief. He had never seen such a shameless person.
He was clearly using the methods of demonic cultivators, refining other cultivators, yet he still spoke of cleansing sins.
Did he himself not know whether he had sins?
Unfortunately, thoughts were just thoughts. Old Devil Wangxin’s mind and power were both gradually collapsing.
Before long, under that pure and pristine power, Old Devil Wangxin was completely flattened, his power dissolving in an instant.
At the same time, the aura on Li Tianwei’s body rose from the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm to the late stage.
“ You, you monster, freak.”
At the side, Elder Kongxuan watched Old Devil Wangxin disappear and Li Tianwei’s power increase. Naturally, he knew what Li Tianwei had done.
However, at this moment, Elder Kongxuan discovered that he was utterly unable to struggle free from the Manifestation behind Li Tianwei.
“ I don’t want to become like Old Devil Wangxin, don’t refine me. I’m at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, I’ll do anything.”
Meeting Li Tianwei’s satisfied gaze, Elder Kongxuan screamed loudly.
“ Anything?”
“ Very good. I want to cleanse the sins on your body. Since you’re willing to do anything, then properly accept my cleansing.”
Li Tianwei raised his other hand. Behind him, the shattered Void Emptiness Manifestation twisted and suppressed downward.
Just like with Old Devil Wangxin earlier, Li Tianwei grabbed hold of Elder Kongxuan’s body, which was not even half a meter tall.
“ No……”
Li Tianwei gave him no chance to react at all. The Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity erupted, white radiance shining upon the world, as though everything in existence was completely cleansed at that moment.
Very quickly, Elder Kongxuan, like Old Devil Wangxin before him, gradually flattened in Li Tianwei’s hand. The power that had twisted and mutated them dissolved away, restoring his original appearance, only for it to shatter once more soon after.
In the span of a few breaths, two Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators were completely annihilated, one in each of his hands.
White radiance illuminated the world. The power of the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity continued to spread as Ancestor Xutian and Daoist Master Miaohua slowly came back to their senses.
Only at this time did they realize what Li Tianwei had just done. When they looked at him, their eyes were filled with fear.
“ Evil demon, monster?”
Daoist Master Miaohua, as a female cultivator, muttered instinctively. It was clear that there were still flaws in her mental state.
Yet the scene of Li Tianwei resolving and refining two Tribulation Transcendence cultivators was still vivid before their eyes. Under such circumstances, it was impossible not to think more deeply.
“ Run?”
Two Tribulation Transcendence cultivators had died just like that at Li Tianwei’s hands, and their own methods were ineffective against him.
Under such conditions, was there any need to struggle further?
The remaining four had already revealed expressions of retreat.
But if they wanted to run, how could Li Tianwei allow it?
“ Since you’ve come, then don’t leave.”
“ Prison Heaven.”
Li Tianwei pointed toward the sky, and the aura of divine power erupted in an instant.
At present, Li Tianwei had already reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. The Manifestation behind him grew increasingly solid, as though it were about to be endowed with spirituality and step forth from within.
Once the divine power appeared, the thousand intentions within the Manifestation instantly merged into it.
The star-like points formed from Dao intent were lit up one after another. Those star points continuously expanded, growing larger and larger.
Before long, above the heavens, a thousand star points descended faintly from the sky, covering the world as they manifested.
Terrifying gravitational force pulled at everything in existence. A dreadful suction continuously stretched all things in the world.
Below, the various peaks of the Sacred Land of Lingxu, shattered earth, chunks of soil, massive boulders, and entire mountain tops collapsed and were drawn upward toward the heavens.
