“i wonder which elder of the Wang family is undergoing tribulation…”
The elder from the Spirit Sword Holy Land slowly descended from the void. He first glanced at everyone present, then his brows furrowed.
He saw many elders of the Wang family here. However, he did not see the Wang family Patriarch! This made his heart tremble. Could it be the one crossing tribulation was the Wang family Patriarch?
Thinking of this, his heart was filled with complex emotions. With a complicated expression, he cupped his fists and said to Wang Yunzong, “I am Jiang Feng, representing the Spirit Sword Holy Land! I offer congratulations in advance to the fellow Daoists of the Wang family!”
“Hmm? What’s going on?”
Hearing this, Wang Yunzong and the others turned their heads and looked at Jiang Feng of the Spirit Sword Holy Land with surprised expressions.
For a moment, they didn’t know what to say. There were nine Saint Tribulations! As long as one passed those tribulations, one would become a legendary saint who transcended nine Saint Tribulations!
They also hoped that Su Chen’s surname was Wang rather than Su! Unfortunately, all this was impossible.
“Hmm? The Saint Tribulations are not over, yet they’re already so arrogant?” Jiang Feng looked at the crowd before him and felt a little bitter. He had taken the initiative to greet them, yet he was given the cold shoulder. Did they already view the Spirit Sword Holy Land as unable to be on equal footing with them?
Although he felt very uncomfortable in his heart, Jiang Feng still patiently said, “The Wang family Patriarch has shocked the world today. Perhaps in a thousand years, the Wang family will give birth to another great emperor! This is truly the fortune of the East Barrens!”
“Wait! What? The Wang family Patriarch?” When Wang Yunzong heard this, he was stunned. Soon, he realized the other party had misunderstood.
He was about to explain, “No! Fellow Daoist, you have misunderstood. The person crossing tribulation is not…”
However, before he could finish speaking, the void not far away distorted.
The Wang family Patriarch strode out from the void. He held his hands behind his back, looking calm. His black eyes first swept over Jiang Feng lightly, then he said, “Yunzong. Which elder of our family is undergoing tribulation?”
Wang Yunzong was rendered speechless.
Jiang Feng was startled when he saw the Wang family Patriarch. Then, he became confused.
He had suspected the person transcending tribulation was the Wang family Patriarch. Yet the other party had suddenly appeared. Clearly, the tribulation-crosser was not the Wang family Patriarch. So, here was the question. Since the Patriarch and elders of the Wang family were all here, just who was crossing tribulation?
Could it be some genius of the Wang family who had been in hiding until now, only appearing before everyone at this moment? But wasn’t this person hiding too deeply? To the extent that even the Wang family Patriarch was unaware of this person’s existence?
The Wang family Patriarch was also very confused. He looked around and saw all of their elders present. Aside from these people, he truly could not think of anyone else in the Wang family who could be crossing the Saint Tribulation at such a critical moment.
Moreover, there were nine Saint Tribulations!
Logically speaking, those capable of transcending nine Saint Tribulations were invincible existences in the Quasi-Saint Realm. He should have heard of such an existence before. Yet today, the tribulation-crossing person was shrouded in a faint mist, making it impossible to clearly see his appearance. This left him quite puzzled.
“Patriarch, the tribulation-crosser is Su Chen, Holy Son of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect…” Wang Yunzong steeled himself and said.
“Su Chen?” Hearing this name, both the Wang family Patriarch and Jiang Feng had looks of disbelief.
Su Chen’s name was extremely familiar to both of them. During this period of time, Su Chen’s reputation had spread across the entire East Barrens.
Many people only noticed that Su Chen had led his forces to destroy the superpower, the Spirit Race! Yet very few noticed that Su Chen’s strength had already reached the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm. He was only a single step away from the Saint Realm!
And now, he had even attracted the Saint Tribulation outside of the Wang family, especially nine Saint Tribulations!
Many experts of the older generation felt a little ashamed. They had cultivated for thousands of years yet still lingered outside the Saint Realm. However, Su Chen, their junior, had already become a saint. Where was the logic in this? If nothing unexpected happened, before long, after Su Chen crossed his Saint Tribulation, and when they saw Su Chen again, they would probably have to address him as Senior.
The sea of lightning was endless and extremely chaotic. This was a wondrous scene within the void as if the void itself had collapsed, forming an extremely magnificent vista.
Su Chen’s black hair was disheveled, and his purple robe was scorched black by the thunder tribulation. Yet the skin beneath his robes remained sparkling and translucent as if carved from white jade.
He raised the Azure Dragon Sword in his hand and plunged it into the sea of clouds. This action immediately attracted a more immense thunderstorm. Countless crimson thunderbolts surged towards this location. Glancing around, all one could see was a dense expanse of lightning. Other than the endless blood-colored lightning, there was nothing else.
“So this is Su Chen?”
“He seems to be refining his own sacred weapon amidst the blood-colored lightning!”
“Hiss! Has he gone mad?”
“If I hadn’t witnessed this with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it.”
“Isn’t he afraid the heavenly tribulation will turn his sacred weapon to dust?”
“How daring!”
Among the Wang family, many elders spoke up one after another, their expressions filled with shock.
“Haha… Don’t forget, back at the Prodigy Gathering, Su Chen had helped a cripple! And that cripple had immortal gold in her hands. If nothing goes wrong, Fellow Daoist Su Chen likely also possesses such immortal gold!” Wang Yunzong chuckled.
A weapon containing immortal gold could already be refined into an imperial weapon! It was not something mere Saint Tribulations could shatter.
“Uh… The tribulation-crosser is Su Chen?”
At this moment, more and more experts rushed over. They looked upon the scene within the sea of lightning, shocked beyond belief.
If Su Chen could survive those heavenly tribulations, a Ninth Tribulation Saint would likely appear in the East Barrens!
Even if Su Chen could not become a great emperor in the future, the mere influence of crossing nine heavenly tribulations would be enough to leave a significant mark in the history of the East Barrens and even the entire continent, making it his own distinctive legacy.
“How many heavenly tribulations has he transcended now?” someone asked.
“It’s already the seventh!” Wang Yunzong replied with a solemn expression.
It was already the seventh tribulation, yet Su Chen still chose not to make a move. He had already reached this stage relying solely on the strength of his physical body, which made many saints feel ashamed.
Back when they had undergone their tribulations, even just the third or fourth one felt like a brush with death. Yet now, Su Chen seemed perfectly at ease facing the seventh tribulation..
