Chapter 210 - 108: The Dao Tribulation

Time swiftly passes by, in the blink of an eye, decades have gone by.

South Sea, Panwang Island.

The island is desolate, with no array set up and no people.

Only at the center, on a high peak, can a solitary figure be seen.

The figure is imposing, sitting at the summit, as if merging with the mountain and stone.

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

The Gang Wind howls, the clothes rustle, yet the person remains still, and the saber resting across their knees is equally silent.

Suddenly...

"Rumble, rumble!"

The wind and clouds change abruptly, a Great Dark Celestial appears.

"It’s here!"

"Nascent Soul Phenomenon!"

"Quickly report to the Ancestor!"

The person at the peak remains motionless, while outside Panwang Island, Spirit Light rises, transmitting messages one after another.

No need for transmission, as the tribulation clouds gather, several demonic lights pierce the sky, landing outside the island with great momentum, revealing figures with overwhelming presence.

They are Nascent Soul cultivators!

"Martial Madman!"

"Three Calamities Blade Demon!"

"Today is the day you face your tribulation!"

Several Demonic Nascent Soul cultivators descend, looking at the person on Panwang Island with undisguised greed and murderous intent in their eyes.

Decades ago, this person emerged in the South Sea, acting arrogantly under the name of Martial, taking over the inexplicably empty Panwang Island, and using the Three Calamities Demon Soldiers to rampage, further igniting the chaotically burning flames of Karmic Fire in the South Sea Cultivation Realm.

Though they too are demon cultivators, the Demonic Nascent Souls cannot tolerate such reckless behavior and have united to eliminate this major threat.

Yet who would have thought...

"This person, though only with Golden Core cultivation, the Karmic Fire Three Calamities are truly formidable."

"Three Calamities and Four Tribulations, the Karmic Fire Demon Soldiers, he has refined them to the realm of Two Calamities, giving him a significant advantage over us demon cultivators, even being able to counterattack against the orthodox Demonic Nascent Souls with his Golden Core body."

"If he advances further, shattering the Golden Core to form a Nascent Soul, or refines the Three Calamities Demon Saber to completion, none beneath the Primordial Spirit would be his match."

"Today, he attempts to break the Core and form a Nascent Soul; it would be best if he fails naturally, but if he succeeds, we must kill him even at the cost of our lives, or else we all may become his sacrifices to the saber!"

"No more words, let us watch his tribulation!"

The demon cultivators watch coldly, glaring at Panwang Island, while more demonic lights continue to arrive,

In just a moment, nine Demonic Nascent Souls have gathered, surrounding Panwang Island, exposing their murderous intent without reservation.

The unhidden murderous intent seeks to put pressure on the opponent, hoping to distract them and get them destroyed under the Celestial Tribulation.

Additionally, some are observing from afar, their cultivation not as high as Nascent Souls, but with an understanding of internal and external affairs, they too can discuss worldly matters and point out directions.

"White Bone Ancestor, Venerable Poison Dragon, Nine Nether Ghost King!"

"The White Bone Sect, Poison Dragon Pool, Netherworld Dao, though not as prominent as the Three Fierce of the West Sea or the South Sea Demon Sect, are also considered orthodox demon paths, having produced Venerable Primordial Spirits in the past, especially Venerable Poison Dragon, who is said to have hope for reaching the Primordial Spirit, comparable to the Jinglong Sword Master of Golden Turtle Island."

"Three demon orthodox, six heterodox sector transfers, nine Nascent Souls joining forces, he will surely be grieved in the northwest even if he successfully crosses the tribulation today."

"Hmph, if not for needing to suppress the various sects of the Mystic Sect, today there would be more than nine Nascent Souls?"

"Arrogant for so many years, it’s time to pay the price!"

There is secret whispering, much discussion, feeling as if a weight has been lifted, even a sense of revenge and satisfaction.

Indeed, the actions of this person over the years.

Truly unworthy of people’s hearts.

Outside Panwang Island, the demons glare menacingly.

Inside Panwang Island, however, it is unruffled, calm.

At the pinnacle, Shen Hex sits alone, completely ignoring the matters outside the island, focusing only on his own Dao Fruit.

Decades ago, the Celestial Slaughter Demon Monarch sapped the foundation by gathering all inland demon cultivators to Hidden Sword Mountain; though Shen Hex intercepted and killed some, in the end, it still achieved the strategic goal of making it desolate.

For this, Shen Hex had to move his hunting grounds, coming to the South Sea Cultivation Realm to continue slaughtering demons and offering sacrifices to the Dao.

Thus, after decades of tempering, he has finally accumulated enough cultivation, arriving at the threshold of breaking the Core and forming the Nascent Soul.

Breaking the Core and forming the Nascent Soul!

Three Splendors Gather at the Top to build a Dao Foundation.

Five Qi to Origin to form the Golden Core.

Breaking the Core and forming the Nascent Soul, how is it to be done?

It’s simple, Heaven and Earth Tribulation!

Three Splendors Gather at the Top, Five Qi to Origin.

Human effort ends here, already exhausted.

To advance further, he must borrow the Power of Heaven and Earth.

Thus, the key to breaking the Core and forming the Nascent Soul lies in the Heaven and Earth Tribulation Refining.

Human effort within, heaven and earth outside.

Collaboration from inside and outside, breaking the Core and forming the Nascent Soul.

Not just Daoist cultivation of Qi Refining, tempering Qi and blood in Martial Dao, strengthening the spirit in Spirit Control Cultivation Method, all reach this point in such a manner.

Tier Six Martial Artist needs to harness the Heavenly Spirit and Earthly Fiend Qi to temper the Golden Core, Tier Six Spirit Control also needs to harness the Power of Heaven and Earth Laws to temper the spirit.

Shen Hex cultivates the Immortal Martial Spirit Three Techniques simultaneously, thus when breaking through it appears seamless, all focusing on this one tribulation; if crossing it is successful, if not, death awaits.

There is nothing more to say.

Shen Hex activates his True Essence Magical Power, the Dao Golden Core quivers in response, connecting from within to heaven and earth.

Suddenly...

"Rumble, rumble!"

The tribulation clouds collide, heaven and earth thunder, layers of dense Great Dark Celestial cover Panwang Island, twisting into a vortex at the center, within lightning flashes and thunder roars, filled with destructive potential.

"Ha!"

Yet Shen Hex is unafraid, letting out a long howl, soaring into the vortex of the tribulation clouds.

Cultivation is already not easy, Celestial Tribulation is even harder to cross.

Due to the extreme danger of the Celestial Tribulation, how to cross it has long become a compulsory subject for high-tier cultivators, even a lifelong challenge.

Various tribulation-crossing methods have emerged in response.

Some rely on external objects, some use divine techniques.

Some depend on strength, some gamble on luck.

In short, the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, each displaying their divine powers.

But for Shen Hex, there is only one word.
