Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

”What is he doing? Is he actually using the Heavenly Tribulation to refine his Physical Body? Has he gone mad?” The Flower Whale Demon Saint was shocked, her eyes nearly bulging out. She stared at Su Han in terror, feeling as if the bounds of her imagination had been shattered and her entire worldview overturned.

What is the Heavenly Tribulation? It is a punishment from the Heavenly Dao, carrying absolute destructive energy. It is a trial with nine chances of death to one of life—pure destruction and death.

Of course, ancient legends spoke of some legendary figures who could borrow the power of the Heavenly Tribulation to temper themselves and become even stronger, but such individuals were exceedingly rare. Throughout the entire history of the Desolate Heavenly Ancient Realm, their number would not exceed the fingers on both hands. Each of these legendary figures was famous and glorious, and they ultimately reached the Peak. The weakest among them were Semi-Divine Experts, and most of them reached the God Realm before their Ascension from the Desolate Heavenly Ancient Realm.

Not only could Su Han summon the Heavenly Tribulation, but he could even perform Thunder Tribulation Body Refinement. Are we about to witness the birth of a new legendary figure?

The Flower Whale Demon Saint was inwardly shaken. Her estimation of Su Han soared, and she was now comparing him to the legendary figures of antiquity. However, the more impressive Su Han appeared, the more intense her killing intent became. They were already enemies, and the more monstrous Su Han’s innate talent was, the greater the threat he posed to her. Today, she had to eradicate him while he had yet to mature. The Flower Whale Demon Saint had a premonition: if she failed to kill Su Han today, it would become incredibly difficult, if not impossible, to do so in the future.

”Thunder Tribulation Body Refinement? How is this possible?” The Mad Lion Saint was also rendered speechless by the scene. He too had only heard of such feats in legends and had never witnessed them with his own eyes. Now that he finally had, the one performing it was an enemy he was determined to kill. This stoked the killing intent in the Mad Lion Saint’s heart to an unprecedented level. Such a monstrous talent... I must not allow him to continue growing.

Neither the Flower Whale Demon Saint nor the Mad Lion Saint wanted to let Su Han go, and Su Han had no intention of sparing them either.

By this point, Su Han had completed his first stage of tempering. Both his Physical Body and Divine Sense had been greatly enhanced, and he was now tinged with the terrifying, destructive might of the thunderbolt. But Su Han wanted more than just to complete his Tribulation Transcendence. Even if he succeeded, he would only reach the Supreme Realm. No matter how high his Combat Power, he would have no chance of defeating Saints, let alone extraordinary ones like the Flower Whale Demon Saint and the Mad Lion Saint.

Su Han’s gaze was clear, his thoughts lucid. He knew that relying on the Heavenly Tribulation alone wasn’t enough to defeat the Flower Whale Demon Saint and the Mad Lion Saint, and Master Gong Ming and Saint You Heng could not hold them off on their own either. The only way is for me to use the Heavenly Tribulation to suppress them while Master Gong Ming and Saint You Heng attack. Only then will we have a chance to slay them.

”Saint You Heng, I’m coming to aid you!”

With this thought, Su Han did not hesitate. He immediately executed the Character Technique of Motion, bursting forth at twenty times his normal speed to reach the terrifying Speed of Sound as he rushed directly toward Saint You Heng and the Mad Lion Saint. The Flower Whale Demon Saint was indeed the easier target, but Master Gong Ming was severely injured. Even with the combined power of the Heavenly Tribulation and Master Gong Ming, they couldn’t kill her. Therefore, Su Han decided to first help Saint You Heng deal with the Mad Lion Saint, then turn back to finish the Flower Whale Demon Saint.

BOOM!

Su Han was the target of the Heavenly Tribulation. Wherever he went, the tribulation followed. Just then, the second bolt of Thunder Light formed a giant pillar and roared down ferociously, but it followed Su Han’s movements, putting both Saint You Heng and the Mad Lion Saint under tremendous pressure. However, Su Han was controlling the Myriad Thunder Attraction Holy Formation. He shrouded Saint You Heng in its Formation Patterns, shielding him from the Heavenly Tribulation’s suppressive force and allowing him to remain unaffected.

”Not good!”

Seeing Su Han flying toward him, the Mad Lion Saint instantly guessed his intent. But guessing was not the same as being able to avoid it. Under the heavenly might of the tribulation, the Mad Lion Saint could not help but feel a sense of awe, and his strength was consequently restricted.

”Saint You Heng, use the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda!” Su Han yelled as he waved his hand, tossing the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda to Saint You Heng. Although a new user couldn’t unleash its full power immediately, with Saint You Heng’s strength, unleashing eighty to ninety percent of its might was an easy task.

HUM!

Under Saint You Heng’s power, the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda expanded to a size of 2,600 meters, its entire body glowing with a brilliant golden light like a great golden mountain. Eight of the nine palaces opened instantly, leaving only the final one sealed. The intense suppressive force and sealing Aura made the Mad Lion Saint’s expression change drastically. He wanted to use Teleportation to escape and even tried to use the power of time to evade, but both attempts failed before Saint You Heng. Saint You Heng countered with a clash of Domains and restricted him with the power of time. Finally, the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda bore down. Although it couldn’t seal the Mad Lion Saint completely, it still had a massive impact on him.

At that moment, the second pillar of Thunder Light crashed down. Although the Mad Lion Saint wasn’t the primary target, he was still caught in the blast. The terrifying Thunderbolt struck, causing his Mad Gang Domain to quiver nonstop.

”Devour!”

By this time, Su Han had already donned the Ghostly Face Mask, performed Physique Fusion, activated Black Hole Transformation, and entered his Demonized State. He had deployed all of his strongest techniques. Under the influence of the Myriad Thunder Attraction Holy Formation, the second pillar of Thunder Light was also rapidly broken down before being devoured and refined by Su Han to temper his body.

He intended to temper not only his Physical Body but also his Divine Sense. The head is the most vulnerable part of the body. Divine Sense is born from the soul and is of a Yin nature, whereas a thunderbolt possesses the ultimate hardness and Yang energy. Therefore, tempering one’s Divine Sense with thunderbolts is an extremely dangerous undertaking. A single careless mistake could leave one an imbecile, a mindless puppet.

But Su Han’s Divine Sense was sufficiently powerful, comprising one hundred and three Divine Sense Stellars. Moreover, his sea of consciousness had been strengthened, making it thick and solid, capable of withstanding anything. Of course, even so, tempering his Divine Sense with thunderbolts still carried immense risk and pain. But in his quest to become stronger, to seize control of his own destiny, Su Han had never feared pain or risk.

After calmly completing the Refinement, Su Han succeeded in his second round of Tempering Body with Thunder. Fine arcs of lightning flickered in his pores, and his entire Aura grew stronger. This bolt was evidently more powerful than the first, and its tempering effect was greater.

ROAR!

Just then, a furious roar thundered from the sky, making everyone’s heart tremble as if the end of days had arrived.

They all looked up in unison toward the source of the sound, and their eyes were immediately met by the sight of a vivid, lifelike Leviathan! The third bolt of Thunder Light had actually transformed into a Leviathan. It was worth noting that during his last Heavenly Tribulation, the Leviathan hadn’t appeared until the eighth bolt. This meant the current tribulation was several times more formidable than the last.

At the appearance of the Leviathan, the faces of everyone present paled. As for the Mad Lion Saint, who was enveloped by the Heavenly Tribulation, his face turned ashen as he felt an intense premonition of death.

BOOM!

Under the crowd’s stunned and horrified gazes, the Leviathan descended from the sky, heading straight for Su Han
