Chapter 775 – 777 – The Tree King’s Tribulation
Chapter 775 – 777 – The Tree Man King’s Transition
Just …… the Tree Man King had just healed the injuries on his body, and then he ushered in the Mahayana Thunder Tribulation, could she successfully pass through this hurdle?
But when Xu Chuniang was stoic and silent, the sky’s robbery clouds gathered more and more, the black clouds pressed the territory, and the momentum was compelling.
Seeing that she was still not leaving, the Tree Man King let out a long laugh and pushed her away tens of miles away with a soft force.
“If you don’t leave, you’ll have to accompany me through the calamity!”
Xu Chuniang didn’t resist, allowing the force to push her to the side of the Spirit Pool.
Just as she stabilized herself, she heard thunder roaring from afar.
With a thought, she took a step above the old cypress tree and looked distantly towards the direction from which the thunder came.
The sound of the Mahayana Thunder Tribulation was much more powerful than the Void Refining Thunder Tribulation that she had passed through not long ago.
From the Mahayana stage down to the YuanYing stage, the cultivators of the entire Tree People Kingdom were all startled by this sudden thunder tribulation.
Countless tree people either stopped what they were doing or woke up from their slumber to pay attention to this thunderbolt.
Old Cypress Tree’s divine sense shadow appeared beside her at an unknown time, and he looked in the direction of the falling thunder, his face filled with worry.
“Your Majesty, she is still so young and her body is weak, I don’t know if she can survive this thunder tribulation.”
Wu Shen and Gui Zhi also heard the sound and stared nervously at the strikingly white giant wood in the distance.
Xu Chuniang didn’t say anything; in fact, she didn’t have an answer in her heart either.
Just how terrifying the lightning tribulation of the Mahayana Stage was, only by going deep into it could one experience it.
Thunderbolts smashed down one after another, and in the face of the might of the heavens and earth, the white giant wood appeared so unbearable, yet it tenaciously carried one heavenly thunderbolt after another.
A large part of the branches and leaves were split down by the lightning, and in some places, they were even smoked by the lightning, and the fire was then ignited.
“By the looks of it, the king seems to be in some bad shape!”
Old Cypress’s brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes filled with worry.
It was only the fifth round, and the king was injured, how would he survive the next three rounds?
Xu Chuniang remained speechless, only silently looking at the white giant wood in the distance that was undergoing the lightning tribulation.
The lightning is merciless, this is what every cultivator must experience, no one can replace it.
The thunderbolts were still falling, and after the sixth round of thunderbolts, the fire on the white giant wood gradually converged from a small fire into a large fire, calcining every branch.
With the seventh round of thunderbolt falling, the vitality of the white giant wood, became weaker and weaker, a look of breath as if swimming.
Countless Tree People Race cultivators were watching this scene.
Seeing this, they pinched a sweat for the Tree Man King.
There were even tree people who couldn’t help but shout, “What is the king waiting for, why don’t you use the Spring of Life to heal your wounds!”
“Be quiet for a while, the king is in the midst of a tribulation, don’t ask her to be distracted!”
“If you don’t die from a great calamity, there will be a blessing afterward, the king has survived all the seventy-seven and forty-nine tribulations of the tribulation period, there’s no reason that he would be killed by the heavenly thunderbolt!”
As if sensing the clan’s expectations, the white giant wood finally glowed with a hint of vitality as it greeted the eighth round of lightning tribulation.
It was only after the eighth round of thunder tribulation fell that this smudge of vitality was quickly annihilated.
Under the bombardment of the tribulation lightning, a large number of branches broke into slag, and in the end, there was actually only a thick trunk left.
It was just that this tree trunk, it didn’t look good either, and it could be destroyed at any time.
Gui Zhi couldn’t even bear to look at it and wiped her tears.
“The king is also too miserable, only a bare pole is left, she loves beauty so much, oooh oooh ……”
“Don’t cry, the king is still alive! You are crying and howling here, how unlucky.” Being a little annoyed by her noise, the old cypress tree didn’t hold back and glared at her.
Gui Zhi let out a crying hiccup and stiffly held it in.
Thinking of something, she turned her head to look at Xu Chuniang, “Fellow Daoist Xu, don’t you know how to tell fortunes? Why don’t you help me calculate whether the king will be able to survive this calamity or not?”
Xu Chunniang’s face darkened, telling the fortune of a cultivator whose cultivation exceeded hers by two or three great realms, she would only do so if she was tired of her life.
Earlier, Gui Zhi had lost the Purple Cloud Magpie that she had raised since she was a child, and when she had inadvertently learned about it, she had done a fortune telling for Gui Zhi and found the Purple Cloud Magpie.
Gui Zhi didn’t think that everything could be divined, did she?
Xu Chuniang directly refused, “I’m only at the Refined Void stage of cultivation, the king’s cultivation exceeds mine by too much to be able to calculate.”
A disappointed look appeared on Gui Zhi’s face, “Is that so? I thought the art of divination could project anything.”
Wu Shen was afraid that Xu Chuniang would be displeased and apologized, “Fellow Daoist Xu don’t be offended, Gui Zhi doesn’t understand this, I’ll make amends to you on her behalf.”
“No harm, she just doesn’t understand this.”
Xu Chuniang waved her hand, not bothering with Gui Zhi.
The Divining Devouring Dao was very marvelous, but there were just as many taboos, and one could only divine cultivators or things lower than one’s own cultivation level.
Moreover, relying too much on this Dao and asking for everything would instead deplete the fortune of the diviner.
That is why she does not use it much on weekdays, and only uses it when she needs it.
Xu Chuniang looked towards the direction of the thunderbolt, only the last three robberies left, the white giant tree trunk, has long been robbed by the thunderbolt split, only the bottom of the trunk, still standing tenaciously.
As the last three robberies fell, the height of the tree trunk shrunk again, leaving only a large and empty stump.
The thunderous light faded, and the Zhou Dynasty fell into a silence.
No one knew whether the Tree Man King was dead or alive.
Just as several Mahayana Stage Tree Man cultivators were about to go forward to check, a new bud suddenly drew out from the stump that was pitch-black from the lightning.
This new bud is only as thick as a chopstick, but the growth speed is very fast, in a short while it grew about ten feet high, and also grew a few tiny branches.
“The king is still alive!”
“The king she …… survived the thunder tribulation! My Tree People Clan, add another Mahayana stage cultivator!”
“Great! I knew that the king she would be able to do it!”
Countless tree people cheered, their expressions filled with excitement and joy.
For any ethnic group, the birth of a new Mahayana cultivator was a great event worthy of celebrating for the clan.
Xu Chuniang smiled faintly and did not participate in the tree people’s revelry, silently returning to the Spirit Pool.
Coinciding with this, the little golden carp swam out and happily spat a bubble at her, but almost didn’t fall into the water.
Xu Chuniang was secretly alarmed, and hurriedly reached out to pick it up.
After a few days, how did the little gold carp become so weak? It looked as if it had a short life expectancy.
Its cultivation level had also fallen from the peak of Transformation Spirit to the early Jindan stage.
Obviously, a few days ago, the little golden carp was still alive and well, what had it gone through?
Thinking of a certain possibility, Xu Chuniang’s pupils shrank.
Can it be that …… the Tree Man King’s smooth passage through the Mahayana Thunder Tribulation had the Little Golden Carp’s share of the credit?
Yes, in all likelihood, this was the case.
Otherwise, how could the little golden carp have regressed in cultivation and been injured to such an extent when it had stayed in the pool for so long?
Xu Chuniang released her innate purple qi and carefully sent it to the mouth of the little golden carp.
However, it only took two bites before it directly disappeared in her palm.
