Chapter 246 : Divine Transformation Pill
The Demon Emperor had actually returned to his peak Unity stage power. The previous news of his severe injury was apparently a rumor, aimed at luring enemies in to take down those rebellious Beast Kings. They just hadn't expected the cultivation world to interfere this time. However, it didn't matter. After all, once he unified the demon realm, he would lead troops to attack the cultivation world. Having a few hostages walk into the trap willingly, the Demon Emperor was naturally pleased!
Who present would have power stronger than the Great Perfection stage??
Everyone and the various Beast Kings felt fear in their hearts.
They hadn't expected the Demon Emperor to have such a hidden move, setting up such an inescapable net.
Sliding her fingertip across the long sword, Chu Sang lowered her eyes in thought. It seemed... she could only use that move!
It might be a bit underhanded, but if it works, it works.
She raised her sword and suddenly approached. The Demon Emperor sneered, thinking this fool was walking into the trap. But in the next second, a thunderous roar resounded from the sky!
Thunder?
Where did the thunder come from??
This place wasn't thunder territory, how could thunder appear out of nowhere??
As the Demon Emperor looked up in surprise, he discovered that this heavenly thunder wasn't ordinary thunder, but the legendary tribulation thunder.
The direction the heavenly thunder was aiming at... was Chu Sang!
Was this person about to break through?
Choosing to break through at this time? Was she truly foolish or pretending to be? What exactly was she trying to do??
At this moment, not only the Demon Emperor, but the other sect disciples were also dumbfounded. Chu Sang was currently at the peak of late Nascent Soul stage, which meant that this breakthrough was to Divine Transformation...
A Divine Transformation cultivator not yet twenty years old...
In the history of the cultivation world, this was an unparalleled genius.
Mo Qingchen paused his movements and looked up.
Before her, the youngest cultivator to break through to Divine Transformation should have been Mo Qingchen, entering Divine Transformation at twenty-one. If Chu Sang could successfully break through to Divine Transformation this time, she would be the youngest Divine Transformation stage cultivator in the known history of the cultivation world. The history of the cultivation world would add a brilliant new page!
But similarly, having experienced Divine Transformation, Mo Qingchen knew all too well that breaking through to Divine Transformation was no easy task. It was tens of times more dangerous than breaking through to Nascent Soul. Although cultivators who could reach peak Nascent Soul were rare in the cultivation world's thousand-year history, the base number was large, so there were quite a few. However, cultivators who successfully passed the tribulation and reached Divine Transformation stage could be counted on one's fingers. Even in the Eight Great Immortal Sects, only the respected elders of the sects had reached this stage. To reach Divine Transformation stage during the disciple period was enough to be called a dragon among men, and it would take at least fifty years.
Elder Chang Yu of Tianyan Sect, who was famous in the cultivation world years ago, reached Divine Transformation in less than fifty years during his disciple period.
Now, the new generation was pushing the old forward, with several disciples breaking through to Divine Transformation at a young age.
Now, an even more talented genius who had one foot in Divine Transformation before turning twenty had appeared. How could people not be excited?!
But choosing to break through at this time was not a smart move. Breaking through to Divine Transformation was too dangerous. Many cultivators could reach peak Nascent Soul, but very few could actually break through to Divine Transformation. Too many geniuses had fallen under the tribulation thunder.
The Nascent Soul tribulation could at least be partly blocked by thunder-resisting spiritual tools, but as the cultivation world gradually declined, it became difficult to refine more powerful thunder-resisting immortal or divine tools. These thunder-resisting spiritual tools would be instantly pulverized upon contact with the Divine Transformation tribulation thunder.
Chu Sang now had no preparation at all, yet rashly broke through to Divine Transformation. It could be said to be a situation of nine deaths and one life.
It was a risky move, and Chu Sang admitted that her action was overly risky, but it wasn't reckless.
She roughly calculated the power of her Divine Transformation tribulation thunder.
During her Golden Core tribulation, the thunder could surpass three major realms, striking Yan Wangxing, who was at Divine Transformation stage at the time, leaving him half-paralyzed. It took nearly half a year of recuperation to barely recover.
Logically, the Divine Transformation stage tribulation thunder should also be able to surpass three major realms, perhaps enough to strike at the Great Perfection stage?
In any case, it was death either way, so she might as well go all out.
Let's see who dies and who lives in the end!
Without another word, Chu Sang attacked with the tribulation thunder. It was precisely when she approached that the first tribulation thunder struck. The Demon Emperor suddenly realized her crazy intention, his face changing abruptly. He didn't even want to fight, avoiding her like a snake or scorpion, trying to frantically shake her off.
But Chu Sang wasn't so easy to shake off.
Back when she hadn't even reached Golden Core stage, she could drag down Yan Wangxing who was at Divine Transformation stage. Now she was half-step to Divine Transformation, she had to bring down this Unity stage Demon Emperor!
She took the second tribulation thunder herself, but turned and threw the third at the Demon Emperor. The Demon Emperor's movements suddenly paused. He even doubted if he was hallucinating. This was... Divine Transformation stage tribulation thunder?
Demon beasts basically don't need to undergo tribulation thunder when breaking through realms. He didn't know much about cultivators' tribulation thunder, but anyone with eyes could see that this strike didn't seem like something a Divine Transformation stage could bear, right?
This strike was almost comparable to a full-force attack from a Unity stage cultivator!
If Divine Transformation tribulation thunder was this powerful, he found it hard to imagine how any Divine Transformation stage cultivators were still alive in the cultivation world??
No matter how confused the Demon Emperor's mind was now, the tribulation thunder had started to focus on striking him. He was so angry he wanted to curse. It wasn't his tribulation, was it? Had this heavenly thunder gone blind or was it blind to begin with, why was it striking at him???
Most deadly was that this tribulation thunder grew stronger with each strike. Divine Transformation had eighteen rounds of tribulation thunder. The first few bolts of heavenly thunder were just a warm-up. Starting from the fifth round, the power was simply on a completely different level, coming with the momentum to thoroughly strike a person dead!!!
The heavenly thunder wasn't to be trifled with either. Perceiving that Chu Sang had been continuously guiding the heavenly thunder towards the Demon Emperor, it exerted all its strength, attacking Chu Sang more fiercely.
After successfully luring the heavenly thunder to strike off course a few times, each subsequent attempt became more difficult. Towards the middle and later stages, Chu Sang had no choice but to bear several bolts of heavenly thunder herself. Fortunately, in the last moment when the heavenly thunder penetrated her body, she managed to make the Demon Emperor share part of the residual thunder. Even so, she nearly lost her life.
The power of this bolt of heavenly thunder was stronger than all the Nascent Soul level heavenly thunder combined.
Just as one bolt of heavenly thunder finished striking, the next was already gathering and surging in the black clouds.
Chu Sang gritted her teeth. The taste in her throat was so bloody she couldn't discern what flavor it was anymore. Her head was dizzy and heavy, everything before her eyes gradually turning blood-red. Her body swayed, seeming as if it would fall at any moment.
Although the Demon Emperor had also suffered quite a few injuries, his Unity stage strength was still there. In comparison, Chu Sang's condition could be described as at the end of her tether. But she held on with her last bit of strength, refusing to fall. The spiritual tools and talismans on her body were almost used up. If this continued, without a doubt, she would die before the Demon Emperor.
The heavenly thunder struck for several days and nights, its momentum growing stronger and more terrifying.
At this critical moment of extreme danger, the lid of the pill furnace lifted—Mu Chihuai's pill refining was successful—
Divine Transformation Pill!
This pill truly saved the day!
Chu Sang took the pill and swallowed it without hesitation. Her entire body's aura changed completely.
