First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 1113 - Breaking the Tribulation and Scattering the Clouds as He Enters Profound Serenity

The last layer of tribulation lightning had been brewing for a long time. Now, it finally descended.

Boom!

Heaven and earth shook violently. Boundless white tribulation light burst forth, like the river of stars breaking through a dam and pouring onto the human realm. It bore a hole through the skies, illuminating the nine heavens and the ten earths.

No one could keep their eyes open. Their hearts and minds shook with helplessness and despair.

The stronger their cultivation bases, the greater the impact the tribulation had on them. Their faces were ashen, their hearts shook, and they had no choice but to cut off their awareness and defend themselves with all their might.

The last layer of the tribulation gave all of them the same impression: it would have surely destroyed even a Profound Unity Emperor, scattering their soul!

In other words, the tribulation full of strange, calamitous power was obviously dead set on eliminating Su Yi. It wasn’t leaving him any chance at survival at all. It wanted to wipe him from the face of the earth!

This was unquestionably far too unsettling, and it overturned their perception of divine tribulations.

An apocalyptic atmosphere rife with despair enveloped heaven and earth.

As Su Yi watched that waterfall of tribulation light descend, the depths of his gaze glinted like ice.

He’d overcome numerous tribulations since his reincarnation and rebirth. All of them were full of this sort of calamitous aura, and all of them were mind-bogglingly strong. They didn’t want to leave him any path to life at all.

There was no need to even question that, relying purely on his cultivation base, it wouldn’t matter how heaven-defying he was. There would be no way he could overcome a tribulation of this level on his own. It would destroy him completely!

All of this made Su Yi increasingly certain that he was being targeted!

But Su Yi wasn’t afraid.

Just as before, he leaped into the sky and met it head-on.

Within his sea of consciousness, the Sword of the Nine Hells awakened. It trembled violently, and the eight divine chains clattered. A mysterious power burst forth, like floodwaters breaking through a dam.

Su Yi raised the Tiny Heart of the Cosmos without hesitation and swept through the sky.

Boom——!

Boundless tribulation light poured down like a waterfall, but it split like canvas beneath Su Yi’s slash.

And when the sword qi reached the depths of the heavens, the clustered tribulation clouds shook violently, then split. A downpour of light fell down to earth.

Dispersing the tribulation and scattering the clouds!

Su Yi put away the Tiny Heart of the Cosmos and leaped into the air. His cultivation base circulated, absorbing the rain of light filling the sky. It poured into him in an endless flow.

Like a whale devouring the ocean!

Su Yi’s cultivation base then burst forth unimpeded as he leaped over the threshold of the Profound Serenity Realm. His entire body underwent an earth-shaking metamorphosis, both inside and out.

Within his Grand Dao Profound Palace, the Laws intertwined, and their power rose like steam that silently condensed the outline of a Dao Platform.

Within his fleshly body, his blood and qi boiled over, and his muscles and bones trembled as they underwent an utter sublimation.

And within his soul, a mighty, holy avatar of will continuously condensed....

His cultivation, soul, and body... all were undergoing metamorphosis as he broke through.

The tribulation had already dissipated. Earlier, those onlookers who’d shut their eyes slowly reopened them.

An astonishing scene greeted them. The distant landscape rumbled and boomed as radiant, misty light hovered in the air. Streaks of divine radiance poured down, illuminating the mountains and rivers and everything beyond.

And Su Yi’s tall, upright figure stood within a seemingly sacred cosmological phenomenon. Motes of light circulated around him, and the sound of the Grand Dao rumbled like lightning, making him seem like an immortal visiting the human realm from on high.

He was now the world’s most dazzling beam of light!

“This....”

Countless cultivators were dumbstruck, and they looked bewildered, as if they were gazing upon a god. Indescribable astonishment and reverence arose within their hearts.

“How calamitous and terrifying was that tribulation earlier? Yet His Excellency Su broke it with such ease... It’s like a miracle,” murmured Yan Suni, looking utterly awed.

“Throughout the Wilds’ long history, no such Tribulation of Profound Serenity has ever appeared before. That means that the path His Excellency Su is pursuing in this lifetime is unique and unprecedented!” the grand high elder of the Nine Extremes Profound Capital sighed.

“Old Monster Su’s cultivation base is still inferior to the pinnacle of his past life, but his combat strength is only getting fiercer and fiercer...” The Skythorn Poison Emperor said wistfully.

The Profound Dao was divided into three major realms: Profound Illumination, Profound Serenity, and Profound Unity.

Each realm was as far apart as the mud and the clouds!

Earlier, Su Yi had used his peak Profound Illumination Realm cultivation to force the early-stage Profound Unity Realm Pi Mo to retreat within just three slashes!

Now, after overcoming this calamitous grand tribulation and entering the Profound Serenity Realm, the onlookers didn’t even need to think to know that his cultivation was completely different from before!

Just how strong was Su Yi now? The Skythorn Poison Emperor couldn’t even begin to guess.

There was nothing for it; there was no standard by which to evaluate him!

Jin Kui, Ye Luo, and the others looked at each other and smiled. Their spirits soared.

The Abstruse Force Alliance had been destroyed, Martial Heaven Peak had fallen, and Pi Mo had been executed!

Furthermore, their master had forced the mysterious young mistress of the Studio of the Heart to retreat, overcome an unprecedented tribulation, and entered the Profound Serenity Realm before countless onlookers!

As disciples of the Grotto of Abstruse Force, they felt honored by association. They were inwardly both deeply excited and proud.

They didn’t even need to think to know that when word spread, a commotion would spread throughout the Wilds!

Off in the distance, Ji Yuan of the Little Western Paradise furrowed his brow, his expression shifting and uncertain. “Su Xuanjun... In your current incarnation... just who are you?”

Before long, the smoke dissipated and the clouds dispersed. All strange phenomena vanished.

Su Yi stood beneath the dome of heaven. Although his robes were still red with blood, his presence and bearing had undergone an earth-shaking transformation.

Even just standing there casually, he seemed as transcendent as an immortal, like a deity gazing down upon the masses!

“Congratulations on successfully proving your Dao, Your Excellency Su!” The grand high elder of the Nine Extremes Profound Capital was the first to step forth and solemnly greet him from afar.

The other old-timers in attendance dared not be negligent. One after another, they stepped forth to greet and congratulate Su Yi. All of them looked awed.

Immediately afterward, the cultivators of the Wilds spoke up as well.

“Congratulations on successfully proving your Dao, Your Excellency Su!”

“Congratulations on successfully proving your Dao, Your Excellency Su!”

“Congratulations on successfully proving your Dao, Your Excellency Su!”

Waves of voices resounded throughout heaven and earth, rising and falling in waves. A long time passed before they stopped echoing throughout the landscape.

It was as if ten thousand ministers were lowering their heads in obedience to their sovereign!

Five hundred years have passed. In this battle, the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force has proclaimed his triumphant return from the cycle of reincarnation! After this, no one will dare suspect his identity any further!

Some of the old-timers were inwardly emotional.

“That unbelievable legend returned to achieve an overwhelming victory today and announce his return. But that doesn’t mean everything will be as it once was.”

“Don’t forget that his youngest disciple, Qing Tang, is still occupying the Grotto of Abstruse Force, and that factions from the stars beyond are still here in the Wilds!” someone said softly as he analyzed the situation with a cool head. “Can the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force stand uncontested at the pinnacle of the Wilds as he did before? It’s still too soon to say.”

Many others voiced their agreement.

As the entire area was in uproar, Su Yi took out a jug of wine, threw back his head, and drained it. Then, he swept his gaze across the crowd. “Would anyone else like to seize this opportunity to try me?”

His calm voice resounded throughout heaven and earth, instantly suppressing the clamor on all sides.

The entire area was deathly silent. Everyone was solemn.

What does he mean? Don’t tell me there are still people here who wish to oppose him?

The Skythorn Poison Emperor looked around, as if trying to locate them.

Alas, in the end, no one responded, nor did anyone accept Su Yi’s challenge.

When he saw this, Su Yi sighed and lost interest. Without another word, he turned and left that stretch of sky.

“Jin Kui, take your junior apprentice brothers and gather up Pi Mo’s remains,” ordered Su Yi.

“Got it.” Jin Kui nodded.

“Ol’ Skythorn, let’s go find a place to have a drink.” Su Yi smiled at the Skythorn Poison Emperor.

“Just what I had in mind.” The Skythorn Poison Emperor laughed.

But immediately after, he gazed into the distance, at the few remaining Emperors of the Six Great Daoist Sects. “I didn’t help you earlier, Old Monster Su, and I feel deeply dissatisfied. Let me clean up that riffraff before we have our drink.”

Before his voice had even finished echoing through the air, he attacked without reservation.

The Emperors’ faces were ashen with fright. Some of them couldn’t take it; they collapsed and wailed for mercy. Others were so overcome with fright that they turned tail and fled.

Su Yi didn’t stop any of this, nor did he pity them. The old-timers of the Six Great Daoist Sects had accompanied Pi Mo in invading the Grotto of Abstruse Force, burning, killing, and looting like mad.

It really was time to settle the score.

“We’ll help too.” Wang Que brimmed over with murderous intent and charged, sword swinging.

How could Jin Kui, Ye Luo, Bai Yi, and Xuan Ning be negligent? They rushed in after him.

Even some of the old-timers distributed throughout the surrounding area took action, sealing off the fleeing Emperors’ escape routes.

“This is His Excellency Su’s prestige. He doesn’t even need to give orders; people will come to his aid of their own volition.” Yan Suni sighed.

The grand high elder shook his head. “That might have been true in the past, but now... Most of them are simply helping the victor. They’re just trying to get in His Excellency Su’s good lights.”

‘Simply helping the victor?’ Yan Suni froze, instantly rueful.

And Yue Shichan, who’d sunk into a deep silence, finally smiled. It was an unusual sight on someone so icy, but it came straight from the heart, and she thoroughly relaxed.

Before long, the curtains set on this battle. Under the onslaught led by the Skythorn Poison Emperor, the already terrified Emperors of the Six Great Daoist Sects fell, one after another. Not one survived!

This bloody scene left the onlookers’ hearts palpitating with terror.

This was the price of opposing the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force!

As of today, the Six Great Daoist Sects had disappeared into the long river of history!

The Church of the River of Stars and the NIne Heavens Pavilion actually managed to keep their cool... Su Yi was a bit rueful. And here he’d thought those factions of the stars beyond would seize the opportunity to strike while he was vulnerable. Who’d have thought that no such thing would occur?

There was no doubt that he’d won a complete victory. That, combined with his ascent into the Profound Serenity Realm, had likely put his foes on guard. Furthermore, the young mistress of the Studio of the Heart had retreated. Most likely, after seeing that, they dared not attack recklessly.

That very day, once the curtains fell on the battle all of the Wilds was focused on, word spread at top speeds.

The news instantly shook the Wilds, causing widespread shock and stirring up enormous waves.
