Chapter 92: Being Attacked Also Counts as a Kind of Inheritance
Heavenly might surged — endless purple lightning, rays of thunderous light, layer upon layer of condensed dark clouds, so heavy it seemed impossible.
Li Tianwei could sense the celestial might above the heavens, yet that was all he could feel.
It looked impressive in scale, but in Li Tianwei’s eyes, it was nothing more than that.
It did not even meet his expectations.
According to his own assumptions, since he possessed a Heavenly Spiritual Root and extraordinary comprehension, and had condensed the Fusion Golden Core, blessed by a Hundred Intentions, his tribulation ought to have been an unprecedented existence — its might naturally beyond compare, one that no one before or after could hope to rival.
How could it be that the power of this tribulation seemed only slightly greater than the deterrence of Qin Yueying, that Nascent Soul Realm cultivator from before?!
“No, perhaps this is only the beginning. The further a tribulation goes, the stronger it becomes.”
At that moment, Li Tianwei convinced himself of this thought.
Meanwhile, Lan Yu, who had hurried over, looked upon the Golden Core Tribulation before him — his face had already darkened completely.
“T-This… this is the Nine-Five Heaven Tribulation! Isn’t that supposed to be a Spirit Transformation Tribulation?”
“The aura is indeed that of a Nine-Five Heaven Tribulation, yet the scale looks only like that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator breaking through to Golden Core!”
Lan Yu could hardly imagine what kind of situation would cause a cultivator breaking through from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core to undergo such a tribulation. Had he offended the heavens? Or committed sins so grave that this was no tribulation, but divine punishment itself?
Lan Yu clearly remembered that when he himself had broken through from Nascent Soul to Spirit Transformation, his Spirit Transformation Tribulation was far weaker than this one.
If he had faced such a Nine-Five Heaven Tribulation, he probably could not have withstood even the first wave — Spirit Transformation would have been a hopeless dream.
As his Divine Sense extended outward, Lan Yu also saw the figure standing at the center of the heavenly tribulation.
Back when Li Tianwei had climbed the Heart-Questioning Steps, Lan Yu had contended with other elders for him — naturally, he recognized him at a glance.
“As expected… but this is a heavenly tribulation. How much could I even help?”
Lan Yu looked at the Nine-Five Heaven Tribulation above and sighed deeply.
The might of a heavenly tribulation grew stronger depending on the strength of those who interfered. If he, a Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator, were to enter, the tribulation might rise by several levels.
Just as Lan Yu pondered this, Elder Fuzhen of the Sacred Land of Baiyuan arrived through the air, holding the Heaven-Repelling Mirror.
Boundless radiance filled the sky; a heavy, suppressive aura swept forth, imbued with the power of laws.
“Elder Fuzhen of the Sacred Land of Baiyuan.”
Lan Yu immediately sensed his arrival, his expression changing drastically.
He needed no further thought to know who Fuzhen was here for.
“Fuzhen! Does your Sacred Land of Baiyuan intend to wage war with our Sacred Land of Lingxu?”
Lan Yu pointed at Elder Fuzhen and shouted furiously.
But Elder Fuzhen cared little for his words. He had come here with only one mission — to kill Li Tianwei and completely erase this heaven-defying genius.
Over the years, the Sacred Land of Lingxu had grown too prosperous. Whether it was resources, secret realms, or opportunities within the Immortal Ruins, they always took the largest share — sometimes even monopolizing them outright.
Such behavior had already reduced the other three Sacred Lands’ resources for nearly a thousand years.
If another heaven-defying genius like Li Tianwei were to emerge, Lingxu would surely dominate arrogantly for several more millennia.
That must not be allowed to happen.
“Heaven-Repelling Mirror, reflect illusion, souls fade into mist...”
Elder Fuzhen chanted his incantation, sending it toward Lan Yu.
Due to the heavenly tribulation, Xue Yuqing and Ming Yin did not act immediately.
They instead waited for the right moment while accumulating the power of laws.
Even they were shaken by the Nine-Five Heaven Tribulation before them.
For a Golden Core Tribulation to possess such might — it spoke volumes of how terrifying Li Tianwei’s talent was.
Previously, the three Sacred Lands had jointly attempted to eliminate Bai Muxu several times — each attempt failed.
When Bai Muxu was at the Golden Core Realm, they sent Nascent Soul cultivators; when he reached Nascent Soul, they sent Spirit Transformation experts — yet every time, he survived.
Now, they directly crossed two major realms, deploying Spirit Transformation experts once more.
To avoid another Bai Muxu-like disaster, Xue Yuqing and Ming Yin had decided to use the opportunity of Li Tianwei’s tribulation to strike, secretly accumulating their strength.
Layer upon layer of spells and laws were built up, intertwined. To kill Li Tianwei, the two worked in perfect concert, preparing to unleash power surpassing their own cultivation realms.
Their plan was a single decisive strike — leaving Li Tianwei not the slightest chance of survival.
With Bai Muxu’s incident as a precedent, the pressure now fell squarely on Li Tianwei.
If he had known, he might have sighed — so this is also a kind of inheritance.
At this moment, Li Tianwei focused entirely on facing his tribulation, unaware of the confrontation among Lan Yu and the three Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators.
After all, Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators were those whose Divine Souls roamed freely, whose Yang Spirits could leave the body, and who commanded the laws themselves.
They were entirely different beings from Nascent Soul Realm cultivators — the gap between them was even greater than that between Foundation Establishment and Nascent Soul.
Rumble…
Lightning flashed within the tribulation, heavenly might manifesting, waves of oppressive force pressing downward.
Destructive energy surged, black clouds rolled endlessly — layer upon layer, without end.
Upon sensing Li Tianwei’s aura, the heavens instantly descended in fury.
Boom!
A thunderous explosion resounded — yet strangely, the expected heavenly thunder transformed into a unique phenomenon.
Heavenly flames mingled with thunderlight; rain carried electricity; clouds churned — a bizarre corrosive force fell from above.
Even the chaotic energies surrounding the Western Surroundings of the Forbidden Land of Taixu instinctively retreated, as though sensing the most dangerous power in existence.
Vast heavenly might — even though it was merely a Golden Core Tribulation — still instilled immense fear in the Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators observing it.
Not to mention Li Tianwei, the target himself, who was now besieged by its boundless power.
Feeling the incoming might, Li Tianwei immediately revealed his own strength.
His Golden Core appeared, emanating faint fussion power, releasing a scorching aura like the presence of a blazing sun descending upon the world.
The energy reversed, mysterious gravitational waves drew the surrounding forces of heaven and earth toward him.
“Come!”
Li Tianwei advanced boldly. At this point, even he did not know how powerful his current strength truly was.
In order to create a body suitable for fusion, his Golden Core was inscribed with a Hundred Intentions — his core akin to a miniature star.
Such enhancements were unprecedented.
The vast, terrifying heavenly tribulation descended, striking directly upon Li Tianwei.
The resulting energy fluctuations caused Lan Yu and the other three Spirit Transformation cultivators to glance repeatedly toward it.
“I actually felt a trace of danger…”
As the tribulation’s energy spread, Ming Yin and Xue Yuqing, who were condensing their power, grew solemn.
Although they had already taken Li Tianwei seriously, in the end he was only at the Golden Core Realm. They had intended to treat him as one of equal realm.
Yet now, witnessing this eruption, they clearly realized just how monstrous the one within the tribulation truly was.
The two no longer held back — they began to drive their laws to the limit, even drawing out pills from their storage rings to amplify their power.
Who could have imagined that two Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators would treat a man undergoing his Golden Core Tribulation with such caution?
In the cultivation world, hierarchies were absolute — a Golden Core cultivator might live and die without ever glimpsing a Spirit Transformation expert.
Yet now, such beings were forced to go all out against him.
It was truly against all reason.
As for Li Tianwei, in his eyes, this was perfectly normal. Otherwise, wouldn’t all his cultivation have been in vain?
For a protagonist-level genius, such treatment was only natural.
In other novels, Golden Core cultivators were already slaying immortals — so how could he not deal with a few Spirit Transformation ones himself?
