Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 682: Chapter 680: I Want to Defy the Heavens!

”Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The terrifying booming sounds echoed continuously over Su Han, as if countless Dragon God Realm experts were self-destructing one after another at that moment.

The bombardment of red thunder and lightning destroyed the remaining layers of the Wood Spirit Cauldron, less than a hundred, and next was the Bell of the Water God.

The Bell of the Water God also had a thousand layers.

From within the red thunder and lightning, another hand appeared. This time, the hand was not unclear but rather transparent, revealing the outline of a hand but not even amounting to an illusion.

Even so, Su Han took a deep breath.

From that hand, he could feel a force more terrifying than the red thunder and lightning—a Power of Destruction, filling the air.

The hand appeared without any hesitation, seemingly determined to erase Su Han and slammed down with a crash.

”Boom!!!”

”Bang Bang Bang...”

Following the terrible booming sound, the Bell of the Water God on Su Han’s body had five hundred layers disappear in almost an instant!

The immense Power of Rebound, though not injuring Su Han, still made his face somewhat pale.

The hand’s strike seemed not only to erase Su Han but also to crush him down these four hundred meters, as if Su Han standing here was an insult to it.

However, Su Han still held on.

Even though his waist had bent, even though the strikes had lifted his feet, ultimately, the step he retreated was not completed, he gathered it back.

”The Heavenly Tribulations I have crossed are countless times stronger than you, how could you make me retreat!!!”

Su Han roared, his voice thundering, even the people from the Five Great Powers had heard it.

They frowned, secretly wondering if Su Han had truly crossed many Heavenly Tribulations before?

But he was just in the Dragon Pill Realm, how could he possibly trigger a Heavenly Tribulation?

Below the Dragon Emperor, there was only one Heavenly Tribulation, and that was when the Dragon God stepped into the realm of the Dragon Emperor.

And at the level of the Dragon Emperor, the Heavenly Tribulations began to increase, even just breaking from the early stage to the mid-stage would trigger a tribulation.

The number of tribulations was also destiny.

After the Heavenly Tribulation, if one survived and successfully crossed it, the Heavenly Tribulation would no longer hold the Power of Destruction but would assist the Tribulation Crosser with a remarkable power to help repair.

Not just repairing, but also aiding the Tribulation Crosser in breakthroughs, and even forging their mind, their foundation, and some tribulations were so terrifying that once crossed, they could forcibly improve the Tribulation Crosser’s aptitude and increase their capacity for comprehension!

The destiny from Heavenly Tribulation was enormous, but still, very few dared to face it because crossing it was incredibly difficult.

”Just boasting!”

Zhou Chen snorted coldly, ”That’s a height of a thousand meters, and now he’s only crossed four hundred meters and already the tribulation is this terrifying. It’s impossible for him to reach the vortex!”

”Just a Dragon Pill Realm, where does he get so many Heavenly Tribulations? Su Baliu speaks such big words without blushing,” Ji Mingkong said disdainfully.

”His strength is indeed very strong,” suddenly said Chen Yue of the Chen Family. ”At this level of Heavenly Tribulation, even we might not be able to cross it, and yet, he is just in the Dragon Pill Realm.”

Upon these words, everyone fell silent.

In fact, they had already had this thought, but they were unwilling to admit it.

Given their status and background resources, it was quite embarrassing that even though they had reached the Dragon God Realm, they could not surpass someone from the Early Stage Dragon Pill Realm. To spread such news was humiliating, even without others mentioning it.

”I admit, this Su Baliu is indeed strong enough to battle across different levels,” someone acknowledged.

Qingyi said, ”But first, although he is qualified to battle across levels, he doesn’t possess as many methods and resources as we do. He can’t withstand the depletion, so if he really were to battle us, he would inevitably be defeated. Second, at the moment, he has probably used up all his tricks. So, even if he survives the Heavenly Tribulation, we can still kill him!”

”Indeed, if he really can cross it, we will erase him in the blink of an eye,” Ji Mingkong said, a surge of murderous intent in his eyes. ”If he can’t make it... then we have to kill him before the Heavenly Tribulation!”

”Getting close during the Heavenly Tribulation could drag us into it,” Han Yiming said, pursing his lips.

”Dragged in?”

All four of Ji Mingkong looked at Han Yiming, and the latter laughed out loud, ”Han Yiming, what’s the use of saying this? Don’t tell me your Divine Transformation Pavilion only has so much strength?”

Han Yiming remained silent.

They knew Su Han was crossing the tribulation and that rushing in at such a time would implicate them. But why were they still pushing forward?

It was because they had the means to resist the Heavenly Tribulation and keep themselves alive!

Han Yiming’s words were just making things awkward for himself.

”I heard that back in the Mountain of the Divine Medicine, this Su Baliu spared your Divine Transformation Pavilion’s Wen Ling once,” Ji Mingkong asked again.

Han Yiming was still silent, but his expression turned somewhat ugly.

”You really are ungrateful. After being spared by someone, yet you don’t reciprocate. I advise you to have some conscience and back out of this competition,” Ji Mingkong sneered.

”Nonsense!”

Han Yiming frowned, and with a flick of his wrist, a Black Heart Orb appeared.

Seeing this, Ji Mingkong quickly said, ”No, no, no, Brother Han, it was just a joke. Do you have to take it so seriously?”

”Shut your foul mouth!”

Han Yiming snorted coldly, and without further dealings, his steps did not stop but continued to press forward.

At this moment, they had already reached three-fourths of the way there, heading towards the last quarter.

...

On Su Han’s side, after the palm strike, 500 layers of the Bell of the Water God shattered, and the residual force of the red thunder destroyed another 300 layers of the Bell of the Water God before it dissipated.

Now, he once again had a moment to catch his breath.

”No spiritual power, unable to absorb magic elements, I can’t replenish, but... this defense should be about sufficient,” Su Han took a deep breath and murmured to himself, ”If I hadn’t done this, just crossing the tribulation as usual, I would have already succeeded, perhaps even my first Dao Primordial Spirit would have materialized, and my body would have further been tempered by the thunder.”

”If I hadn’t done this, as the Five Great Powers said, my life wouldn’t be in danger.”

”But... that’s not what I want!”

”A cultivator’s cultivation is all about defying fate; it’s all about refining one’s state of mind. In my previous life, I had countless near-death experiences, but I never regretted, and I always held on, eventually becoming the Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor, controlling the power of the Holy Domain!”

”If I always just followed fate, then what kind of cultivator would I, Su Han, be? I would be nothing more than a puppet of destiny, just like these people!”

”A puppet, I refuse to be, so... I shall defy fate!” With that, Su Han abruptly looked up and took another step.
