Chapter 1034: Chapter 0612: Kill within a Kill_2 Chapter 1034: Chapter 0612: Kill within a Kill_2 The Princes were baffled; Qi Tian had been waiting above the skies of Chaoyang Palace for the long-brewing eighth Heavenly Tribulation. This wave of tribulation was more powerful than the previous, with a greater variety of attacks.
The first strike of the eighth wave of Heavenly Tribulation still began with the Tribulation Wind, but this ti the wind was entirely different from the last. The previous wind was just that, wind, each gust possessing the strength of a Half-step Nascent Soul Cultivator’s full-powered blow. However, this ti, as the wind blades fell, firelight appeared around them, and fireballs the size of washbasins mingled with the wind, attacking Qi Tian together.
These fireballs were also imnsely powerful, on par with the full-powered strike of a Half-step Nascent Soul Cultivator, and like the Tribulation Wind, their trajectories were unpredictable. Crowding with the wind, they filled the spaces between, leaving Qi Tian with no room to dodge.
The addition of Tribulation Fire further increased the difficulty of the Heavenly Tribulation. Wind and fire intertwined, their combined force was not as simple as one plus one, but an increase in power by geotric multiples, creating an almost certain deadly trap with no apparent solution.
At this mont, if Qi Tian still used the sa thod as before, it was very likely he would not be able to stop the combined assault of Tribulation Wind and Tribulation Fire, and Heavenly Tribulation might annihilate him.
However, Qi Tian was never one to play by the rules. Noticing the new change in the tribulation, he quickly adjusted his strategy. This ti he deployed all his Transporting Whirlwinds, but instead of splitting them into two groups as he had done before, he combined them all, letting them circle around him to form a defensive net, with himself hidden in its midst.
Be it Tribulation Wind, Tribulation Fire, or the Tribulation Thunder that followed, their purpose was one and the sa: to extinguish Qi Tian.
Since they aid to annihilate Qi Tian, no matter where they ca from, they would eventually have to land on him. By forming the Transporting Whirlwinds into a defensive net, protecting his body, this ensured that whether it was Tribulation Thunder, Fire, or Wind, from any direction, they would collide with the net before impacting him, unable to evade the whirlwind’s entanglent.
As soon as the defensive net was ford, Tribulation Wind and Tribulation Fire, like ferocious beasts, crashed into it together.
The Transporting Whirlwinds, following Qi Tian’s command after being struck, did not capture them but instead hit them from the side or guided them, drawing them towards the nearby Treasure Pavilion of Chaoyang Palace.
For the security of his Treasure Pavilion, Emperor Chaoyang had set up nurous barriers and formations of Half-step Nascent Soul level, all of which were among the best of their kind. However, under the relentless assault of the Tribulation Wind and Tribulation Fire, these protections could not last long and were shattered. The Treasure Pavilion of Chaoyang Palace was utterly exposed to Qi Tian’s eyes.
But unlike the Treasure Pavilion of Wenzhi Palace, Chaoyang Palace’s Treasure Pavilion remained unscathed under the aftermath of the Tribulation Wind and Fire, showing not even the slightest sign of damage. The great doors were still tightly closed and not blown open, making everything seem sowhat eerie.
Qi Tian felt sothing was amiss and wanted to inspect what exactly was happening with this Treasure Pavilion, but at that mont, the Tribulation Thunder followed right after the wind and fire, launching an attack on him. Eight bolts of Tribulation Thunder struck with great speed, and Qi Tian had no chance to catch his breath.
Qi Tian, relying on the Transporting Whirlwind, barely managed to withstand the eight strikes of Tribulation Thunder. However, before he could catch his breath, he suddenly felt an overwhelming surge of power attacking him at high speed from behind.
Qi Tian prepared to dodge, but for so reason he suddenly realized he was unable to move. An extre force was holding him down tightly, leaving him immobilized, unable even to turn his head to see what was happening behind him.
This sudden force was incredibly powerful. If Qi Tian were hit by it, he would either die or be severely injured, with grave consequences. At that mont, Qi Tian didn’t even have ti to use the Heavenly Dao Engine to check where this force ca from or what was happening. He had to respond correctly and promptly to fend off this sudden force, or else, even if the Heavenly Tribulation didn’t finish him, this force could trap him forever within Chaoyang Palace.
Qi Tian’s mind raced with lightning speed. He flipped his wrist and suddenly had a flying sword in his hand—a sword once used by Master Ming Ren. Although not of the highest quality, it was nonetheless a sword that could only be used by a Nascent Soul Master.
Holding the sword, Qi Tian didn’t think twice before slashing behind him. The surging Spirit Force within him poured into the flying sword, transforming into a long sword shadow that struck the sudden force.
Due to the urgency of the situation, Qi Tian had no ti to fully unleash the flying sword’s greatest power. Nonetheless, his slash still unleashed a force almost equivalent to that of a Half-step Nascent Soul level.
The flying sword, once wielded by a Nascent Soul Master, was truly formidable. With one slash, not only did it reduce the sudden force by seventy to eighty percent, but it also eliminated the force binding Qi Tian, which had kept him from moving. However, the reduced force, still at twenty to thirty percent, hit Qi Tian hard, sending him flying.
Qi Tian felt as if all his bones were broken. Enduring the intense pain, he got up from the ground. Taking advantage of the mont, he had already turned his gaze by one hundred eighty degrees, wishing to see who had attacked him from behind.
However, Qi Tian was shocked to find no one behind him—nothing but the empty space and the ruins of the palace, which had been brought down by the Tribulation Wind and Tribulation Fire. Besides that, there was no sign of a living being or creature, nor any special prohibitions or formations.
A hint of coldness flashed in Qi Tian’s eyes. He gripped the black sword in his hand tighter and then turned his gaze back to the Treasure Pavilion. The Treasure Pavilion gave off a very peculiar feeling. Earlier, Qi Tian had used the Heavenly Dao Engine and discovered that the pavilion was actually a magical tool transford, rather than a building constructed by humans.
To open the Treasure Pavilion, it would take more than just attacking it with Tribulation Wind and Tribulation Thunder. More suitable thods must be employed, or all his efforts would be for naught, yielding no results.
Qi Tian looked up at the sky to see that the Tribulation Clouds had not yet dispersed. It seed that Heaven’s test for him was not over, and there would be a next step. He needed to open the Treasure Pavilion before the next wave of Heavenly Tribulation. He had a faint feeling that if he failed to do so before the next tribulation arrived, he would lose any chance of unlocking the Treasure Pavilion.
Qi Tian raised the flying sword in his hand, holding it horizontally at chest level. His left middle and index fingers ca together and ran along the blade, the sharp edge cutting through his fingers. Crimson blood sared on the flying sword; at the sa ti, Qi Tian’s right hand, gripping the sword, began to pour magical power into it, planning to use the power of this flying sword to break through the dead end in front of his eyes.
