2428 Moreover, I’m Not a Lion

The familiar Eighth Stage Profound Sage Realm appeared before Song Shuhang’s eyes.

All around him stretched an endless sea of thunder, and the heavenly thunder roared and howled as if it wanted to tear apart every cultivator entering the Heavenly Tribulation World into pieces! The terrifying power of the heavenly tribulation struck fear into every Seventh Stage Venerable stepping into the Eighth Stage Profound Sage Tribulation World!

But when Song Shuhang heard the familiar thunder of the heavenly tribulation, he felt a sense of nostalgia.

Lately, Song Shuhang had spent more time in the Eighth Stage Tribulation World than in his school dormitory. In fact, he was even more animated here than when he visited home!

As a dormitory resident, Song Shuhang sometimes went home only once a month, and this year, he had visited even less frequently.

On the other hand, the Eighth Stage Profound Sage Space had been maintaining a monthly visitation frequency. Although it was a bit late this month, it still managed to arrive on the last day of the month, in the final second to preserve the streak.

More importantly… This time, Song Shuhang was entering the Eighth Stage Tribulation World alone.

“It’s just me this time. No need to form a group for the tribulation!” Song Shuhang smiled. This way, he wouldn’t have to worry about affecting innocent people.

Furthermore, with him alone, the power of the heavenly tribulation wouldn’t be enhanced.

This time, he was facing a regular Eighth Stage heavenly tribulation.

“Bring it on!” Song Shuhang exclaimed boldly, Pavilion Master Chu’s miniature red crystal resurrection magical artifact hanging around his neck gleamed.

His fists collided to produce a resounding clang of metal meeting metal. This loud sound even drowned out the thunder in the sea of heavenly tribulation lightning!

He activated Mutated Steel Hands over his entire body, coupled with the Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique and Scholarly Indestructible Body of the Buddha!

A host of holy ape phantoms materialized above Song Shuhang’s head, led by a grand holy ape to form a neatly arranged square formation.

The true dragons on the necks of the holy apes also soared from their scarf-like forms and circled above the holy apes’ heads!

The scholarly scriptures appeared in the hands of the holy apes and flipped open automatically as the voices of scholarly students chanting echoed through the air!

Two sets of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts Combined Magical Treasures flickered out of Song Shuhang’s original Dantian, scattered around his body, and were in a ready state—each magical treasure was engraved with Senior Three-Eyed’s Absolute Defense Forcefield formation.

On his right hand, he donned the Defiant Whale Gauntlet, where the artifact’s Little Fairy manifested. She knelt on the gauntlet and pointed forward and emitted a series of cries.

The virtuous lamia appeared behind Song Shuhang, skillfully donning the flat imperial hat. The splendid dragon robe of the Great Empress materialized on her and recreated the posture of Fairy @#%× as the ‘most beautiful fairy of the ancient Heavenly City.’

Simultaneously, the ghost fairy spirit within Song Shuhang’s body voluntarily emerged and stood behind him. Then, the ghost spirit fairy hugged Song Shuhang from behind and activated the special divine body he had successfully cultivated from the scholar lineage. Under the influence of this unique divine body, the power of the heavenly tribulation would be greatly diminished.

This configuration, this lineup, was incredibly opulent!

A mere Eighth Stage heavenly tribulation could only tremble in fear before such an assembly!

“I have a feeling you’re bullying the heavenly tribulation,” Pavilion Master Chu quipped. The energy in her hair had already been depleted by Pavilion Master Chu, so it wouldn’t affect Song Shuhang’s tribulation.

Pavilion Master Chu, being an experienced cultivator, had reached the Eternal Life Realm step by step.

Those who could become Eternal Life beings were all cultivators with extraordinary talent. When she had transcended her tribulation in the past, she had never taunted the heavenly tribulation like this.

“Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit. Besides, compared to the heavenly tribulation, I can’t even be considered a lion. The heavenly tribulation is no weak rabbit. I must confront it with all my might; there can be no underestimation,” Song Shuhang stated calmly.

Pavilion Master Chu raised an eyebrow.

In the sea of heavenly tribulation, thunder rumbled violently, and tribulation clouds gathered above Song Shuhang’s head… However, the tribulation lightning had not descended for a long time.

“Pavilion Master Chu, by the way, can one really overcome sterility through the path to immortality after reaching the Eighth Stage Profound Sage?” Song Shuhang inquired during the lull.

“You can ask Cheng Lin about that,” Pavilion Master Chu responded.

“I am Cheng Lin,” Song Shuhang replied.

Pavilion Master Chu was speechless. Did he really think she wouldn’t recognize him?

“Cough, I don’t know what Fairy Cheng Lin has been up to lately. I haven’t been able to contact her for some time,” Song Shuhang remarked.

“We’ll be able to reach her eventually. Cheng Lin is an Immortal with the life element, so you don’t need to worry about the sterility of Profound Sages,” Pavilion Master Chu assured him.

“Are there any other options apart from the path to immortality through the life element?” Song Shuhang’s curiosity was piqued.

“Yes,” Pavilion Master Chu said slowly.

Song Shuhang’s eyes lit up.

You’re at the Seventh Stage Realm now. Before advancing to the Eighth Stage Realm, you could consider learning about artificial test-tube breeding,” Pavilion Master Chu said nonchalantly.

Song Shuhang looked up at the sky.

Actually, he had considered this plan before.

Moreover, the feasibility was very high.

So, was he going to be the first man to conduct an artificial test tube experiment in the Eighth Stage Tribulation World under the bombardment of heavenly lightning?

…

…

Rumble~

The heavenly lightning in the sky continued to roar, and the tribulation clouds shrouded the world.

However, the heavenly lightning still did not descend.

Song Shuhang furrowed his brow.

Had the heavenly tribulation mutated again? But this time, he was transcending the tribulation alone. There was no reason for the heavenly tribulation to become stronger.

“Wait…” Song Shuhang suddenly thought of something.

His clone was still transcending the Ninth Stage Heavenly Tribulation.

During his last tribulation, he and Su Clan’s Sixteen had been sent to the past to transcend the tribulation using the methods left behind by Wielder of the Will and separated them from the present world.

But this time, his main body had been pulled into the Eighth Stage Tribulation World, while his clone remained in the Ninth Stage Tribulation World.

He had a feeling that this operation was very risky.

Song Shuhang quickly opened the cultivation chat list and sent a message to Senior White and Senior White Two. “Senior White, Happy New Year ~ My main body is transcending the Eighth Stage heavenly tribulation, while my clone is in the Ninth Stage heavenly tribulation space. Is this not too good?”

“Your clone in the Ninth Stage heavenly tribulation space should be fine. Half of my body doesn’t sense any danger,” Senior White quickly replied—half of Senior White’s true body was still in the Ninth Stage Heavenly Tribulation Realm.

If Senior White said there was no problem, it meant that the Ninth Stage heavenly tribulation space was safe.

“Have you started transcending the tribulation?” Senior White Two asked.

“I just entered,” Song Shuhang replied.

“What’s unusual about the heavenly tribulation space?” Senior White Two inquired.

“The heavenly tribulation has been condensing. The tribulation clouds have covered the world, but it hasn’t descended,” Song Shuhang replied.

“Don’t panic. Maybe it’s not because of you,” Senior White Two reassured him.

Just a moment ago, the fat ball clone, which was battling his projected clone in the main world, suddenly came to a halt. It was directly blasted by his projected clone and exploded into a shower of liquid metal droplets that filled the sky.

Not only did the fat ball’s clone come to a halt, but even the fat ball’s main body in the Netherworld Realm suddenly stopped, as if it had crashed.
