First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 742: I Stand in the Human World and Cleave Through Heavenly Tribulation

Earlier, Su Yi’s plight seemed precarious that the onlookers’ hearts were on tenterhooks. Many of them thought Su Yi wouldn’t escape disaster.

After all, so many Spiritual Revolution cultivators were attacking at once. Add the tribulation to the mix, and he was beset on both sides. Any other cultivator would have struggled to resist.

However—

The results weren’t at all what the onlookers expected.

When Su Yi took action, a mere swoosh of his sleeves cleaved through the attacks filling the sky, and a single grab captured the descending tribulation light!

This was the bearing of a deity!

“This…” Huan Shanglin, Xie Zhibei, and their companions’ excited expressions froze on their faces, and their eyes widened.

Wang Zhongyang and his companions gasped, their expressions full of surprise. Su Yi was still just in the Spiritual Manifestation Realm. They couldn’t even imagine how he’d achieved this.

“Did you see that? When I fought him earlier, admitting defeat was the wisest decision I could have made,” muttered Pu Jue.?This scene stunned him too.

.

Pu Surong and the other Purple Moon Fox experts looked at each other, their hearts shaking.

The Xia Emperor, Wen Xinzhao, and the others inwardly sighed in relief.

Only the old blind man said leisurely, “Who in this world understands just how amazing His Excellency Su is….?”

………

Whoosh!

The dragon-like tribulation light struggled fiercely in Su Yi’s grip, releasing the destructive, calamitous aura of a tribulation.

Were any other Spiritual Manifestation cultivator to encounter such a terrifying, taboo tribulation, this attack alone would have dispersed their souls. They couldn’t possibly have blocked it.

But as Su Yi’s fingers shifted….

Boom!

The waterfall of dazzling tribulation light scattered and fell like rain.

And Su Yi’s aura seemed to inhale, drawing in the rain of light filling the sky. It left nothing behind.

This domineering scene shook the crowd once more, leaving countless people tongue-tied.

“Quick, stop him! Disrupt his mental state!” shouted Wang Zhongyang.

He clapped his hands in rapid succession, and the Spirit-Seizing Bell rumbled and boomed, emitting demonic roars. Surging black soundwaves swept toward Su Yi like tidal waves.

Meanwhile, Huan Shanglin, Xie Zhibei, and their allies attacked too!

Rumble! Boom!

Misty treasure light and Daoist invocations shook the air.

No matter their faction of origin, the Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivators fought as one to restrict Su Yi and disrupt his tribulation.

However, they acted with extreme caution. They stood in the distance and attacked from afar, not daring to approach the area where Su Yi underwent tribulation.

Even if divine tribulation struck treasures and abilities, it wouldn’t harm their users!

Heaven and earth were in chaos.

Unstoppable murderous intent and the dazzling light of treasures surged through the air, as if intent on overturning heaven and earth.

But deep within the tribulation clouds, another streak of tribulation light descended from the vortex of lightning.

Boom!

The bright, multicolored tribulation light was dazzlingly radiant, and it descended upon the world like a scythe. It brought with it the imposing might of the heavens, and it was terrifying beyond measure.

Everyone felt their hearts clench, and without exception, their expressions changed.

The group of peak Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivators attacked with everything they had, their efforts focused on Su Yi. Even watching from a distance, the onlookers’ hearts filled with indescribable despair.

Short of an Emperor, who in this world could possibly have fended off such an onslaught?

And Su Yi had to face his unprecedented, taboo, grand tribulation at the same time.

But it was then that——

Su Yi’s expression was suddenly fierce, his distant gaze neither happy nor sad.

He unleashed the full extent of his cultivation base.

His tall, upright figure suddenly burst with endless light!

He was like a sword, the glint of his edge piercing the nine heavens and the ten earths. Free and unrestrained sword intent swept forth like the tide, shooting in all eight directions.

He’d been waiting for this tribulation for quite some time.

And he’d long since seen through the secrets of how to break it.

How could he dare hold back? How could he possibly hesitate?

Boom!

Su Yi rose to his full height, then suddenly raised his hand and pressed down?on the?air.

He unleashed the full extent of his power of the Grand Dao, with dusky Genesis Dao Intent. Both shot out of his palm.

Boom!

A hundred-foot palm imprint condensed with indestructible, immeasurable force, then suddenly bore down on the skies.

It was as if a primordial divine mountain were descending from the heavens, intent on crushing the human world!

This was Su Yi’s first time unleashing the full extent of his cultivation base since he’d entered the Spirit Dao.

Beneath the descending palm strike, the air currents were thrown into disarray, and divine light swept outward.

The Spiritual Revolution cultivators’ treasures and abilities popped like soap bubbles, scattering in midair, unable to take a single hit.

One palm broke countless magics, like an axe through bamboo. Nothing could stand in its way!

This was a shocking scene.

From a distance, Su Yi was like an immortal from on high. A casual strike could obliterate his enemies’ encirclement!

But before the crowd could react—

Boom!

The scythe of electric tribulation light came crashing down, cleaving into Su Yi.

Light surged, and it completely enveloped the skies where Su Yi stood. Its radiance stung the eyes, and it emanated an endlessly terrifying destructive aura.

All of heaven and earth were shrouded in white light.

This sudden development made the onlookers’ hearts shake, and their expressions changed dramatically.

“Was Banished Immortal Su… killed?”

“How could this…”

Startled cries rang out on all sides. The entire area was in uproar.

Huan Shanglin, Xie Zhibei, Wang Zhongyang, and their allies all inwardly sighed in relief.

Earlier, when Su Yi broke through their joint attack with a single palm strike, their hearts quivered in terror.

Fortunately, their joint attack had disrupted Su Yi, resulting in him being struck by lightning!

“An unmatched genius has fallen in battle, all because the Seed of the Azure implicated him. It’s truly a pity,” sighed Wang Zhongyang. Despite his wistful tone, he looked utterly delighted.

“Su Yi is finally dead…” muttered Huan Shanglin. He inwardly rejoiced, and he felt as if a massive weight had lifted from his shoulders.

Su Yi’s earlier display of power had made their hearts shake. They couldn’t even imagine what it would be like if Su Yi successfully overcame his tribulation and entered the Spiritual Incarnation Realm. Just how terrifying would his cultivation become?

Fortunately, that hadn’t happened.?Su Yi’s undefeated legend had come to an abrupt halt!

“Get ready, everyone. Once the lightning tribulation disperses, seize the Seed of the Azure,” Xie Zhibei ordered his companions.

He stared intently at the swath of sky enveloped in tribulation light and readied himself for battle.

Su Yi’s death was within their expectations. After all, he was up against such a grand tribulation, and surrounded by enemies on all sides. No cultivator had any hope of victory against all that.

The way Xie Zhibei saw it, today’s conflict had only just begun. Su Yi’s death was only the opening act.

The real show was the following struggle for the Seed of the Azure!

“Brother Su…” The blood drained from Wen Xinzhao’s beautiful face.

That lightning tribulation was like a guillotine of the Grand Dao. It cleaved into Su Yi so suddenly that the young woman felt as if her heart had been torn to pieces.

The Xia Emperor, Weng Jiu, and the others felt chills in their hands and feet.

But it was then that the old blind man grinned and teased, “Miss Xinzhao, this old man might not have any eyes, but I can nonetheless sense that His Excellency Su Yi hasn’t been harmed. Why are you so upset?”

Wen Xinzhao was stunned.

The Xia Emperor, Weng Jiu, and the others were stunned too.?Don’t tell me….

But before they could fully react, a crack of thunder reverberated throughout heaven and earth.

Beneath everyone’s disbelieving gazes, the radiant tribulation light that had enveloped Su Yi suddenly rumbled and collapsed like an avalanche.

Then, Su Yi’s tall, upright figure came back into view.

His blue robes and black hair fluttered in the wind, and the aura of the Grand Dao flowed around him, transforming into a whirlpool that devoured the scattered tribulation light. It left nothing behind.

“He isn’t dead!?”

“My heavens!”

“This…”

The crowd was in uproar; it was as if they’d boiled over. Startled cries rang out on all sides.

Only then did everyone see clearly that Su Yi hadn’t just?survived;?he wasn’t even injured!

He didn’t have so much as a hair out of place!

Furthermore, upon closer inspection, Su Yi’s aura was even stronger than before!

Countless onlookers were stunned and rooted to the spot.

Who could have imagined this? They’d assumed Su Yi was doomed, only for him to shatter the tribulation light and grow even stronger!

It was like a miracle!

“Dammit!” Wang Zhongyang’s smile froze in place, and he alternated between shock and anger.

Not even that could kill Su Yi!?

Huan Shanglin was dumbstruck too, and his eyes bulged; it was as if he’d been struck by lightning.

“How is this possible…”

Xie Zhibei and the others looked as if they’d seen a ghost. And here they’d already started preparing themselves for the struggle over the Seed of the Azure.

Who’d have thought that Su Yi was still alive, and furthermore, perfectly intact?

“Wonderful!” Wen Xinzhao cried out with mad delight and excitement.

The Xia Emperor, Weng Jiu, and the?others fully?relaxed.

Little in this world was greater cause for celebration than realizing you’d panicked for nothing!

The old blind man didn’t tease them any further. Wen Xinzhao and the others might have lost their composure, but that proved that they really cared about Su Yi’s safety.

This was what they meant when they said, “Concern leads to confusion.”

The old blind man had kept his composure, but of course, that didn’t mean he didn’t care about Su Yi’s well-being. He just knew better than any of the others that a tribulation like this was helpless against him!

Meanwhile, beneath the dome of heaven.

Su Yi took in the crowd’s shifting expressions, and he couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh.

Then, he fixed his gaze upon the sky.

“It’s time to end this,” Su Yi said softly.

He’d sat here quietly for seven days, trying to figure something out. In the end, he was certain that his Tribulation of Spiritual Incarnation would contain a similarly taboo power. No matter how heaven-defying his cultivation, he couldn’t possibly overcome it.

The reason for this was simple: this grand tribulation existed to obliterate him completely. It had no intention of leaving him any path to life.

What he saw now confirmed this hypothesis.

Boom!

Tribulation clouds surged beneath the dome of heaven, and the vortex of lightning was increasingly terrifying. Dazzling tribulation light danced about, and its destructive aura filled even the Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivators with despair!

They couldn’t even imagine what level of tribulation this was, or why it was so out of the ordinary.

It was then that the crowd saw something they were destined never to forget——

Up in the sky, a young man in blue stretched out his right hand, pressed his fingers into a blade, and slashed the dome of heaven.

Whoosh!

A streak of sword qi shot through the air. In a flash, it reached the depths of the tribulation clouds.

Heaven and earth were suddenly silent, and everything dimmed.

The black tribulation clouds stretched over one hundred thousand miles, but now, they suddenly split and dispersed like waters at low tide.

The vortex deep within the clouds split in two, and the terrifying tribulation light brewing within it scattered and fell down to earth.

His slash was like a sword cleaving through heaven’s gates, breaking an unmatched tribulation!

Beneath the dome of heaven, a young man drank with relish, sword in hand, like a god or immortal.
