The four tribulations of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire—the final Earth Tribulation is the most perilous.
Because once you get buried in the muck, with every inch you sink down, the pressure increases.
If you can’t claw your way out of the sludge, your body will keep getting dragged deeper, with the pressure skyrocketing until it feels like the entire Sixth Heaven is crushing you.
You become part of the earth.
But that won’t work on Lu Ye.
Lu Ye’s body stays right at the top.
The Primordial Force surges through his body, shattering the pesky sealing powers, and continues to absorb the calamity energy.
The whole process is smooth sailing.
Time ticks by.
While Lu Ye absorbs calamity energy, he contemplates a question: is the power of this Heavenly Tribulation a bit over the top? Could this be considered as Little Heavenly Dao and Shen Xitang misusing official resources for personal gain?
Borrowing the power of a Heavenly Tribulation to level up for themselves?
That can’t be right.
After all, he’s just too strong. If he weren’t ridiculously strong, Shen Xitang and Little Heavenly Dao wouldn’t be able to offer him such a powerful Heavenly Tribulation.
Until the Earth Tribulation ends.
Lu Ye breaks free from the muck.
Up in the sky, the eye of the tribulation cloud shows no signs of vanishing, still fixated on Lu Ye.
Lu Ye???
Huh, what’s going on?
Not done yet?
At this moment, a new flame appears.
After the flame comes a gentle breeze, followed by a drizzle, and the earth gently trembles.
Earth, Wind, Water, Fire!
The four most primitive powers come crashing together.
Lu Ye suddenly feels like he’s stuck.
He furrows his brows; he definitely didn’t experience this in his previous life.
What’s happening here?
Earth, Wind, Water, Fire goes into chaos, making everything tremble.
The four foundational powers begin to converge frantically, and all the calamity energy starts to coalesce into the tribulation cloud.
The tribulation cloud undergoes tremendous changes.
What was once an eye-shaped tribulation cloud transforms into a… big grinding mill with four colors?
Yes, a grinding mill!
A four-colored grinding mill!
But this isn’t the final form, because with the emergence of the grinding mill, the four colors keep merging and changing, eventually forming something akin to Chaos.
The four-colored grinding mill morphs into the Chaos Grinding Mill!
The Chaos Grinding Mill radiates a primordial aura, and just a single glance makes everyone feel it weighing heavily on their hearts.
The strong ones watching Lu Ye face his tribulation are left dumbfounded.
What on earth…?
Earth, Wind, Water, Fire tribulations are customary disasters, then how come this thing shows up?
Did Chaos just evolve from this? Is this Chaos Grinding Mill the result of merging the four tribulations?
Are they seriously using this thing to test someone? To force someone to cross the tribulation? Are they joking?
Who the heck can survive this?
Infinite Celestial Lord, you can’t play like this!
Is it that the heavens know Lu Ye is too powerful? The usual Earth, Wind, Water, Fire tribulations have little effect on him, so they deliberately set up a special tribulation just for him?
Too bad, this is targeting Lu Ye, the freak; it probably won’t do anything!
Yup, even with the new twist on the Heavenly Tribulation, the strong beings of the Sixth Heaven still don’t think Lu Ye will fall to it.
Lu Ye is too monstrous. No, he’s just ridiculously insane.
Want to destroy Lu Ye? Even if the Heavenly Dao personally showed up in the Sixth Heaven, it probably wouldn’t make much difference.
Lu Ye’s body still can’t move.
The Chaos Grinding Mill moves up and down, merging towards Lu Ye.
Lu Ye struggles hard and breaks free from this restraint.
His feet stomp on the Chaos Grinding Mill below, and with both hands braced against the Chaos Grinding Mill above, the two simply can’t come together under his strength.
The grinding mill keeps on spinning.
The power to obliterate everything rushes inwards.
Lu Ye can’t help but marvel in his heart—what rich calamity energy! What abundant power of the heavens and earth!
As for the power of the Chaos Grinding Mill? Strong, oh yes! It’s not just crushing his body; it’s also crushing his Primordial Force, even his soul, and his Nascent Soul keeps getting ground down.
And it isn’t shattering!
If it isn’t shattering, doesn’t that mean it’s more like refining?
Realizing this point, Lu Ye stops propping himself up with his hands and lets the Chaos Grinding Mill engulf him.
The strong ones watching the tribulation jump in shock—this Chaos Grinding Mill’s power is truly terrifying? It’s actually pressing Lu Ye right inside?
The Chaos Grinding Mill spins without cease, with terrifying chaos mist swirling around; the fearsome light flickers as if it could crush everything in existence.
Lu Ye completely embraces this crushing force within the Chaos Grinding Mill—the Nine Tribulations Undying Body, in this environment, feels like it’s experiencing a mad surge of power.
If the previous Earth, Wind, Water, Fire had the possibility of favoritism, now this Chaos Grinding Mill is just straight-up shoving public treasures into Lu Ye’s pockets.
Bright and blatant!
Lu Ye is also suffering, but the pain and the harvest feel completely out of proportion.
It’s just too darn good!
His physical body improves, his Primordial Force rises, and his soul ascends.
Everything that was already honed and enhanced under Lu Ye’s relentless training, after getting ground once again in this Chaos Grinding Mill, becomes even purer, even more stable.
Lu Ye inhales deeply.
The Chaos Grinding Mill starts to dim down.
The Primordial Force ultimately rises another level. His puffy Nascent Soul begins to slim down as though it’s losing air like a balloon.
Just this one change means Lu Ye’s total amount of Primordial Force can go even higher.
At last, it reaches a point where it can’t be compressed any further.
The Chaos Grinding Mill still hasn’t disappeared.
Lu Ye contemplates and then straightforwardly stands up, growing gigantic, lifting the Chaos Grinding Mill.
His silhouette towers, with wild black hair and a body brimming with unfathomable, captivating power, exuding the beauty of strength.
Shangguan Huanling gazes dumbfounded at this scene.
Not just Shangguan Huanling; nearly all the cultivators are entranced by what they see.
The ladies are taken in by Lu Ye’s masculine charm, while the men are awestruck by his overwhelming power.
Lu Ye stretches out his enormous hands, grabbing the Chaos Grinding Mill; in his grip, the mill shrinks to nothing, till he finally swallows it whole.
The last remnants of calamity energy vanish.
In that moment, Lu Ye officially breaks through to the Shattering Realm.
Yet another brand-new realm.
He’s getting ever closer to contesting for the path to becoming an emperor, to ascend as a Celestial Lord, and to reclaim the heights he once held!
He looks up at the sky.
Seven-colored rays of light fill the air, blessing Lu Ye as he crosses the Heavenly Tribulation.
A guiding force arrives, welcoming Lu Ye to an even broader world.
Lu Ye lowers his gaze, casting one last glance at the Sixth Heaven.
Ascend!
