Chapter 191: Blue Star Celestial Mansion, Coming Back Soon!

Boom! Boom, boom, boom!

The sky was swirling with thunderclouds, rolling and compressing like they were in an epic battle. The awesome power of the thunder made the very air shiver.

In the blink of an eye, a flash of lightning made everyone gasp.

Shen Wenshu was perched atop Cang Xuan Mountain, eyes closed, sitting cross-legged while fine-tuning his status to peak performance.

But at this moment, he felt a dull ache in his chest. He had taken a healing pill to recuperate, but that past injury still haunted him like an ex you just can’t shake off.

Now, beneath the wrath of the thunder, even the tiniest weakness had nowhere to hide.

After a brief pause…

The thunder above built up to a climactic peak. Spectators gawked as a brilliant flash illuminated everything—a dazzling display of silver light!

Boom!

A thunderous roar echoed across the land, followed by a thick bolt of lightning crashing directly onto Shen Wenshu.

Those gathered could only feel their scalps tingle; Shen Wenshu was left hair-raisingly disheveled and robes in tatters as he struggled beneath the maelstrom of thunder. Wisps of black smoke were rising off him like he was a poorly barbecued steak.

“Zhhh— Is this really the power of the Thunder Tribulation? Truly terrifying!”

“That’s just the first thunderbolt!”

“No wonder the ancients said passing through a tribulation is a life-or-d*ath test for a cultivator!”

“Shen Wenshu is among the elite in the Celestial Mansion, yet here he is, looking like a soggy noodle under the first thunderbolt.”

“Come on, he must have some tricks up his sleeve!”

The onlookers gasped collectively, their eyes wide with concern, feeling a newfound respect for the Thunder Tribulation. It became ever clearer that ascending to immortality wasn’t as simple as just riding a bicycle!

Meanwhile, in a corner of the sky, a graceful figure braved the wind.

Qing Dai stood with a flowing light blue dress, her bee-waisted and peach-bottomed figure turning heads left and right, her alluring curve capturing attention like moths to a flame.

Yet her ethereal aura sent a clear message: “Not too close, buddy!”

She had been an immortal for quite some time now and was getting the hang of her new powers. Her aura and strength had both seen a delightful upgrade.

Not to mention, her chaotic bloodline had advanced again. Even if she didn’t emit a single whiff of her presence, beasts would still be trembling before her, as if she was wielding a scary reputation.

“The power of this Thunder Tribulation…”

Qing Dai lightly brushed at her hair and said softly, “Nope, this is child’s play compared to mine!”

To normal eyes, Shen Wenshu’s Thunder Tribulation looked intense. But for someone like Qing Dai, who had lived through it, this was just a warm-up. Back when she faced her own tribulation, the dark clouds stretched far wider and boomed louder.

“And… this isn’t even a true heavenly tribulation! While the Infinite Celestial Realm has its rules all spiffy-like, it’s still got quite a few holes!”

Qing Dai pondered for a moment before lightly continuing.

With her true immortal visage, there was no way she could miss this detail. As she recognized this, a smile spread across her face. The Great Powers of the Infinite Celestial Realm were nothing compared to that of the Blue Star Celestial Mansion.

This also suggested…

That the immortals from the Blue Star Mansion had a bit of an upper hand over those in the Infinite Realm!

Between immortals, there was definitely a clear hierarchy.

It was analogous to how the cultivators from different Celestial Mansions had a grip on the cultivators from the Nine States; even at the same level, the disparity in combat prowess was bound to be immense owing to historical advantages!

“Hehehe!”

“Big Sister Qing Ge and the others are probably close too, right?”

Qing Dai’s smile grew brighter and more eager as her eyes darted in a certain direction.

Since her return these past few days, she had already informed Ye Qingge, Yuan Ruoyu, and the others about the happenings in the Nine States and the various Celestial Mansions.

Though Lin Feng was still MIA!

However, Yuan Ruoyu, Ye Qingge, and Purple Paulownia Great Emperor had all agreed—it was time to stop waiting around!

Otherwise, should the emperor of the Nine States and the other mansions fly into the void, even if they managed to return, what resources did they have to turn the tables? They couldn’t just rely on their little crew!

Plus, Lin Feng had originally entered that mysterious place through the Blue Star Celestial Mansion. As long as they held onto the mansion, he could return.

And whether or not the Blue Star returned to the Nine States didn’t matter.

So, Yuan Ruoyu and the gang decisively shattered the seals of the Blue Star Celestial Mansion, steering this Blue Star back toward the Nine States.

Regardless, the forces of the Blue Star Celestial Mansion had already been restored!

For them, the timing was ripe—it was high time to step out and kick some serious b*tt.

So!

At that moment, the Blue Star Celestial Mansion was already on its way back…

This was why Ye Xi felt something when he comprehended the heavenly roars; a stirring hint of two celestial mansions intertwining in the enigmatic void!

Boom!

Another jaw-dropping rumble of thunder crashed down, shaking the very foundation!

This was the sixth tribulation bolt.

At this point, Shen Baixiu had turned into a bloodied mess under the thunder, with red streams running down his entire body.

But simultaneously, he transformed amidst the tribulation—growing stronger during the process.

The heavenly tribulation was a dance of destruction and rebirth!

The challenge was whether the cultivator could regenerate faster than the lightning could annihilate them!

If they survived, the horizon was theirs to conquer!

Sizzle—

Shen Baixiu emitted sounds of sizzling flesh as his body continuously healed, but the bl**d kept pouring out.

Suddenly, his expression changed as he spat out a mouthful of bl**d!

The recovery rate from his injuries was painfully slow!

“d*mn it!”

“Cursed Qi Tian, once I become an immortal, you won’t know what hit you!”

“Let’s see how you like my pain these years!”

Shen Baixiu’s voice was full of lethal intent, and the bl**d covering his face made him look particularly fierce!

Boom!

In the next moment, the thunderclouds churned, and another bolt of lightning came crashing down!

Shen Baixiu’s expression shifted dramatically as he made a snap decision, summoning a treasure from his hand.

A six-sided copper mirror materialized from the sky, expanding like a shield over him.

As the thunder struck, it pounded against the mirror!

Clang—

The mirror shook violently, but after a moment, it shattered into fine powder, dissipating into nothingness.

However, this gave Shen Baixiu a precious moment to recover his body a tad more.

The residual effects of this thunder incident struck him but weren’t enough to cause significant harm.

Shen Baixiu let out a sigh of relief, though his heart ached.

All that time he spent refining that one treasure and it just shattered like a bad TV show!

After surviving this round of tribulation, the heavens suddenly burst into flaming colors.

Glowing rays of light began cascading down over him.

Simultaneously, the oppressive dark clouds began to fade away gradually.

As Shen Baixiu basked in the rays, his energy skyrocketed, and his injuries mended rapidly.

He felt a transformation unlike any other!

“Finally… an immortal!”

Shen Baixiu roared with unabashed joy, a sentiment that any cultivator in this situation would struggle to contain.

Those watching could only feel envious as they observed not merely a Celestial Mansion cultivator any longer, but a genuine immortal!

“Immortal, how splendid!”

“In this life, witnessing a cultivator transcend to immortality is truly fulfilling!”

“What a pity for those old emperors who ascended before; if only they could witness this now, they wouldn’t have to be sliced into chives!”

“Yeah, just unfortunate timing!”

Then, amidst the amazed gazes of the crowd, Shen Baixiu’s figure slowly began to rise.

In the Infinite Celestial Realm, a portal appeared.

Shen Baixiu shrouded in glowing light, ascended to the heavens, eliciting yet another round of gasps.

And he wasn’t the only one—numerous other emperors also completed their tribulations one after another.

One after another, figures soared into the celestial realm while a few unfortunate souls met their demise in the tribulation, reduced to ash.

“Such impact!”

“A large number of cultivators transcending into immortality; we’ve never seen anything like this before!”

“The air in the heavenly realm must be sweet, right? Where else would you find youthful fairies, majestic mountains, dreamy palaces…”

“I really want to go see for myself!”

“Immortals live long and carefree lives, enjoying pleasures unknown to us mere mortals!”
