Chapter 443: The Reappearance of the Deified, Academy’s Sub-Sage
Looking at the shadow formed by the Thunder Tribulation in front of her, Sun Yuqing couldn’t help clenching her fists.
“Swish!”
A crystal-clear Dan Pill appeared in Sun Yuqing’s hand; it was the Vajra Glazed Pill that Chen Changsheng had prepared for her.
“Gululu!”
With the pill swallowed, a powerful energy surged from her dantian.
Sun Yuqing’s skin immediately turned to a glazed color, and her formidable cultivation erupted at this moment.
“Boom!”
The two of them engaged in battle amidst the sea of thunder.
Watching Sun Yuqing being knocked away repeatedly, only to charge back again, Chen Changsheng’s brows were already tightly furrowed.
The truth of the Thunder Tribulation was now exceedingly clear; all the paths of the Heavenly Mandate would manifest within it.
The scholar had utilized part of Emperor Huangtian’s Heavenly Mandate to establish his own path, which was recorded in the Thunder Tribulation.
However, now, a new problem had emerged.
That was, how to determine what constituted passing through the sixth stage of the Thunder Tribulation.
Throughout history, countless people have borne the Heavenly Mandate, yet it seemed that the Thunder Tribulation required those undergoing it to defeat all aspects of the Heavenly Mandate.
This made it practically impossible for anyone to achieve; even Zhang Bairen might not be able to complete it himself.
Zhang Bairen’s purpose was to distinguish between mediocrity and prodigies, to pave a true path for the real prodigies.
Given this, he couldn’t create an unsolvable deadlock.
Thinking along these lines, Chen Changsheng murmured, “Zhang Bairen, with your character, you wouldn’t just prepare a road for those undergoing the tribulation.”
“The extreme realm sublimation, d*ath and life, is the first road you prepared.”
“The little Peacock Yao Wang path is the sixth road you prepared, so what is the third road?”
“The humanoid Thunder Tribulation has no systematic framework, as long as one can fight to the last breath, there is always a glimmer of hope.”
“But how far must one insist to consider having passed the Thunder Tribulation?”
After saying this, Chen Changsheng looked once more at the Thunder Tribulation in the sky.
Having personally witnessed the truth of the Thunder Tribulation, Chen Changsheng’s heart already had some vague solutions.
However, these guesses still lacked a crucial piece of information.
……
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The clash of battle continued for a day and a night, with Sun Yuqing’s bl**d raining down from the sky as her shattered body struggled to reconstitute.
She had long lost track of how many times she had been battered.
Had it not been for her glazed form’s strong defense and the Sea of Suffering System merging into one, she would have perished in the sea of thunder long ago.
“Pu!”
Spitting out a mouthful mixed with bl**d and thunder, Sun Yuqing looked up at the humanoid thunder.
Although she knew that the “Nalan Xingde” before her was merely a manifestation left by the sage, she couldn’t help but pour out her feelings.
“Sage, Yuqing can also pave a road for all living beings.”
“After so many years apart, I’ve really missed you.”
“According to etiquette, I shouldn’t strike at you, but the path you left blocks the world’s common folk.”
“Today, I must defeat you.”
After saying this, Sun Yuqing’s battered form erupted with unparalleled divine light, charging toward the Thunder Tribulation.
At the same time, countless golden words flew out from Yuqing’s sea of consciousness.
“Boom!”
Sun Yuqing collided fiercely with the humanoid thunder.
The intense impact caused the humanoid thunder to shatter, and Sun Yuqing turned into a pool of bl**d and mud.
Seeing this situation, Chen Changsheng, who had been observing from afar, finally spoke.

He slightly parted his lips, softly saying, “The Fate Lamp does not extinguish, hold onto a glimmer of clarity in the spirit platform.”
“The Thunder Tribulation can obliterate your body, but it cannot extinguish your spirit.”
“Are you really going to give up?”
As Chen Changsheng’s voice echoed out, the pool of bl**d in the sky trembled.
Immediately afterward, the shattered pieces of the Fate Lamp began to gather.
However, upon realizing that the fragmented Fate Lamp began to coalesce, the previously extinguished thunder reemerged.
Countless fine bolts of thunder intertwined with Sun Yuqing’s flesh, preventing her rebirth.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng said with indifference, “Enough! Enough!”
“Mortal concerns should not be taken too far; this path of Thunder Tribulation cannot be completed by you alone.”
As his words fell, Chen Changsheng’s right hand reached out, and countless golden specks of light flew out from Mountain River Academy, ultimately coalescing into a golden book.
“Sun Yuqing, heed the seal!”
“Given that your heart is for the commonfolk, I hereby seal you as the Academy’s Sub-Sage.”
“Legal edict given, Thunder Tribulation retreat!”
With these words, the golden book soared into the endless sea of thunder.
Faced with the golden book that gathered boundless fortune, the sea of thunder trembled, slowly dissipating.
With the obstacles of the sea of thunder removed, Sun Yuqing’s rebirth could finally proceed.
Witnessing this scene, those observing the Thunder Tribulation let out a sigh of relief, yet a trace of longing still shone in their eyes.
Reaching this point, Mountain River Academy had accomplished something remarkable.
At the very least, the academy proved that passing the Thunder Tribulation was possible.
However, it was a pity that she had not truly found a method to pass the Thunder Tribulation.
……
Outside the Void.
Sensing the congregation of the academy’s fortune, Ye Yongxian sighed softly.
“Still lacking just a bit, what a pity.”
Hearing this, Tu Jiao Jiao anxiously asked, “Did my master succeed?”
“Yes, but only half succeeded; a fellow used the academy’s fortune to save her life.”
“I never expected this fortune could be used that way.”
“However, with this move, the world is likely to face another conflict.”
After saying this, Ye Yongxian cupped her hands and bowed to the sky.
Before Tu Jiao Jiao and the others could understand what was happening, the divine beast Bai Ze and a masked “man” appeared in the sky.
“Those observing the Thunder Tribulation, perform the worship ritual.”
As this was said, the eyes of the crowd widened in astonishment.
The shock was not due to the content of the statement, but because of the divine beast that appeared in the sky.
“Bai Ze emerges, the Saint appears.”
According to historical accounts, every appearance of Bai Ze signified that the world was about to change dramatically.
Myriad thoughts flashed through everyone’s minds, and immediately, everyone began to perform the worship ritual towards the academy.
Some who did not understand the truth wanted to resist the bow, but they were quickly forced down by their companions and elders.
For they knew that Bai Ze’s appearance not only meant the emergence of a Saint but also indicated that a certain existence was about to emerge.
……
The roaring Thunder Tribulation had ended, and those who had come to observe the Thunder Tribulation left with their own thoughts.
However, within the academy, something quite interesting unfolded.
A group of people stood before a man who was leisurely eating a bowl of noodles.
None of the onlookers showed impatience at the man’s behavior.
After a quarter of an hour, the man finished his noodles, and Hu Tudou collected the bowl and chopsticks, then pulled out a handkerchief to wipe Chen Changsheng’s mouth.
