Chapter 360: 251: Nascent Soul's Heavenly Tribulation, Robbery Thunder Worm Strikes_3
“It’s rather terrifying.”
Mu Ziyi widened her eyes, she could perceive the tribulation lightning from above, carrying the power of destruction.
Even just a single bolt striking could turn her to ashes.
Such forces were far beyond her capacity as a Foundation-building Cultivator.
Although she already knew that the ascension to the Nascent Soul required facing a Thunder Tribulation, she had never imagined the Tribulation to be this horrifying.
This sent chills down her spine.
“Indeed, it’s utterly terrifying.”
“This is the first stage of the Thunder Tribulation faced during the ascension to the Nascent Soul.”
“It’s said that in the first stage, eighty-one bolts of tribulation lightning will strike, each with an extreme and frightening force.”
“If one is unable to resist, they will be annihilated.”
“Some cultivators, burdened by their past actions, might face a second-stage Thunder Tribulation.”
“In that case, they would be met with a horrifying number of one hundred sixty-two thunderbolts, and almost certainly meet death.”
Shen Biqian curiously watched the dark clouds overhead.
For her, this was a rehearsal for the future.
After all, she would also attempt to traverse the Tribulation soon.
Witnessing this scene allowed her to gain some experience for the future.
“If that’s the case, aren’t those on the verge of the Tribulation doomed?”
“Wait, isn’t sister Chu also a demon cultivator? She won’t have to face the second-stage Thunder Tribulation, will she?”
Xia Jingyan couldn’t help but express her concern.
“Don’t worry. Although Chu Dieyi is a cultivator of the Sky Demon Sect.”
“The truth is that she doesn’t have much karmic entanglement.”
“Therefore, she only has to deal with the first-stage Thunder Tribulation.”
“However, it is indeed hard to comprehend how a cultivator of the Sky Demon Sect like sister Chu carries so little karma.”
Shen Biqian blinked her beautiful eyes.
She originally thought that Chu Dieyi, as a cultivator of the Sky Demon Sect, would be heavily burdened by karma.
Yet unexpectedly, Chu Dieyi’s karma was so insignificant.
“That’s quite normal.”
“Those demon cultivators burdened by karma are mostly those who have slaughtered the innocent.”
“Killing cultivators does not generate karma; only the slaughter of mortals does.”
“In the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, once a cultivator sets foot on the path of cultivation, they are no longer protected by the Heavens.”
“Therefore, it doesn’t matter how many cultivators die. Killing them won’t create karma.”
“Only the slaughter of mortals generates karma.”
“If too many mortals are killed, a heavenly tribulation will be triggered.”
“That’s why, even demon cultivators don’t dare to mindlessly slaughter mortals.”
“Those demon cultivators who kill mortals indiscriminately are mostly not genuine sect members.”
“Any cultivator of the genuine Demon Sect who has received the complete inheritance will not commit such deeds that would ruin their path.”
Zhou Sui spoke in a deep voice.
Having obtained secret scriptures from three sects, he was naturally aware of many of the taboos and knowledge of the cultivation world.
It could be said that he was extremely learned and knew many secrets.
In the view of the Heavenly Dao, mortals are the true foundation.
Cultivators are nothing more than thieves.
They steal the essence of heaven and earth to supplement themselves.
So, the Heavenly Dao actually approves of the infighting among cultivators and wouldn’t generate karma.
At this moment, within the Tri-Star Island Group.
Many cultivators waiting in the Immortal Mist City noticed that the sky seemed oppressive, with dark clouds spreading across the miles, accompanied by lightning.
This astronomical phenomenon was incredibly startling.
However, because Zhou Sui had activated a fourth-stage layout, forming double barriers covering hundreds of miles of the Immortal Mist Sect’s peak, the aura of the heavenly tribulation didn’t leak out.
Therefore, many cultivators didn’t sense anything unusual.
“It’s so strange, the climate of the Tri-Star Island Group has been quite abnormal recently, with clouds looming overhead. Could someone be crossing the heavenly tribulation?”
“Don’t be ridiculous, who would cross the heavenly tribulation here? There’s no fourth-stage spiritual vein.”
“You’re right. The climate here on the Tri-Star Island Group is inherently unusual, often plagued with violent storms. I guess another storm is coming; there’s nothing strange about that.”
“That being said, we shouldn’t go out to sea anytime soon. If we encounter a storm, we wouldn’t even know how we died.”
“However, these conditions really seem like the legendary heavenly tribulation. The atmosphere is so oppressive.”
“Look at what you’re saying. Have you ever seen the heavenly tribulation of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage?”
“Well, no. Seeing a Nascent Soul heavenly tribulation isn’t as simple as you think. Not many Golden Core cultivators in the entire Canglan Sea region can cross the Thunder Tribulation. I can’t be that lucky. I’ve just read some descriptions in ancient texts.”
“It would be great if someone really was crossing the tribulation. That would mean a Nascent Soul Ancestor would be born in Immortal Mist City. Then, the Tri-Star Island Group would become the center. We would flourish.”
“Stop dreaming, the Tri-Star Island Group was founded by three outsider Golden Core Sects. They are now fighting with the Sea Clan cultivators on Giant Deer Island. The most hopeful person for the Nascent Soul isn’t here; how could someone trigger a Nascent Soul heavenly event?”
“The recent climate of the Tri-Star Island Group is abnormal. There might be a storm. It’s better for everyone to be careful, don’t venture out to sea randomly these days to avoid a maritime accident.”
The cultivators were all chattering.
Though they found the abnormal weather strange, none of them thought it was caused by a heavenly tribulation.
After all, there was a formation masking everything and they couldn’t detect anything abnormal.
More importantly, a Nascent Soul heavenly tribulation was too rare, no one had seen it before.
