The Empress’s Blind Consort: Invincible in Secret

Vol2 – Chapter 44 – Nine Layers of Divine Tribulation

The Imperial Capital, with a population of millions, saw nearly half of its residents gathered at the city gates to witness this battle.

Meng Qingzhou took out a round, full, milky-white pill, placed it in his mouth, and swallowed it down with a gulp.

In an instant, the clear sky for miles around gathered dark clouds, blocking out the sun.

"The Empress' Husband is breaking through to the Morning Glow Realm! The Heavenly Tribulation is coming, such terrifying heavenly might."

"Our Great Jin Dynasty is about to give birth to its second Morning Glow Realm Great Being."

"Breaking through in the midst of battle, reversing the situation at a critical moment, the Empress' Husband is gambling with his life. For the country and its people, he has gone to such lengths. Thinking back to the nationwide disdain for him, I feel deeply ashamed."

"I finally understand why the Empress appointed Meng Qingzhou as her husband. If anyone dares to say he is unworthy again, I'll smack them with a shovel."

...

...

Present Village.

Green Tiles Small House.

Sister Qiong squinted at the horizon, muttering to herself, "What a strategy, Master is deliberately pretending to be helpless, showing weakness to the enemy, then step by step luring the Yin-Yang Elder to expend his lifespan, adding to Master's Sword Sense, and then breaking through to Morning Glow in one fell swoop. Not only can he reverse the current predicament, but he can also advance his Swordsmanship, killing two birds with one stone."

"No..."

"It should be said he's achieving three goals at once. With the Devouring Pagoda of the Dao of Karma, if Master wins, the pagoda will backfire on the Yin-Yang Elder, effectively cutting off one of Ji Wushuang's arms, weakening his foundation as much as possible."

Su Qingqiu's beautiful eyes widened, looking a bit adorable and silly, and she said, "The Empress' Husband is about to break through to Morning Glow?!"

At a similar age, the Empress' Husband and the Empress both broke through to Morning Glow one after another, becoming top-tier Great Beings overlooking the Wilderness.

And she, only broke through to the Mountain Moving Realm yesterday.

She thought she was already fast, incredibly fast, but compared to Meng Qingzhou, it was not godspeed at all, it was turtle speed...

"The Empress' Husband was only at the early Moon Shine Realm last month, and now he's about to break through to Morning Glow?" Wu Die also felt it was surreal, too unreal.

Are we cultivating the same path to immortality?

Dongfang Liuli's beautiful eyes sparkled, her graceful figure was captivating, her slender hands clasped in front of her chest, eyes filled with worry, nervously watching the small figure under the Heavenly Tribulation.

"The Empress has really been turned into a virtuous wife and good mother by that blind person. With the strength of that blind person, crossing a whole realm to kill an enemy, what is a mere Heavenly Tribulation? What's there to worry about?" The Sunlight Lord lazily opened his eyes, glanced at Dongfang Liuli, and his dog face vividly simulated a mocking expression.

Suddenly.

The Sunlight Lord's nostrils twitched, his expression changed slightly, and he abruptly turned his head to look at the distant sky, his gaze heavy.

"This is... the Ancient Divine Tribulation, and it's... the Nine Layers of Divine Tribulation!"

"How did that blind person provoke such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation? Even with my two heaven-defying bloodlines, I didn't provoke the jealousy of the Heavenly Dao to bring down a tribulation capable of killing gods."

Sister Qiong's expression also hardened, and she said in a deep voice, "The Nine Layers of Divine Tribulation, ranked as the number one ancient Heavenly Tribulation, is said to be a tribulation for killing gods, not for tempering living beings, but for killing!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present turned pale.

Including the Empress, few people recognized the Ancient Divine Tribulation, but they had all seen it in wild tales and legends.

It was known as the killing tribulation, and from ancient times to the present, few living beings had passed through the Divine Tribulation, let alone the Nine Layers of Divine Tribulation.

"Is there a way?" Dongfang Liuli looked at Sister Qiong.

Only Sister Qiong had lived the longest and seen the most. If even she was helpless, there was no hope for the others.

"No..." Sister Qiong's eyes dimmed.

Under the Heavenly Tribulation, all beings are equal, even gods. Whoever dares to intrude will provoke the Heavenly Tribulation, inevitably causing a fierce backlash.

They could only watch and could not help the tribulation crosser by any means.

"Qingzhou..." Dongfang Liuli murmured.

...

...

Meng Qingzhou walked out of the historical shadow, standing above a tributary of the river of time, looking up at the sky, his expression as calm as an ancient well, letting the fierce wind howl, his sleeves fluttering, and his Sword Sense continuously resonating.

"Emperor Grade Realm-Breaking Pill! Such a treasure, and you used it to break through to Morning Glow!" The Yin-Yang Elder clutched his chest, deeply pained.

Even when he had previously gouged out his own heart, it hadn't hurt as much as it did now. Pain! Too painful!

That was an Emperor Grade Realm-Breaking Pill, something that couldn't be found in the entire Sky State. Even the Young Master only had one, which he had obtained from a relic's legacy.

An Emperor Grade Realm-Breaking Pill could even attract countless Morning Glow Realm Great Beings to pursue it, willing to pay a great price, even becoming slaves or servants, showing just how valuable it was.

This guy actually used it to break through to the Morning Glow Realm, such a waste!

"Something's not right..."

"Did I just get played?"

The Yin-Yang Elder suddenly thought of something, his expression gradually solidifying, looking constipated, his eyes almost spitting fire.

Realizing belatedly, he found that the clown was actually himself!?

Originally having only a thousand years to live, he had now exhausted six hundred years of lifespan just to kill Meng Qingzhou, only to end up making a wedding dress for someone else. How could he not be angry?

"Meng Qingzhou, you deserve to die!"

The Yin-Yang Elder gritted his teeth, trembling with rage, his long-cultivated state of mind shattered in an instant.

"Shameless, utterly shameless! Meng Qingzhou, give me back my lifespan!"

At this moment.

The Heavenly Tribulation rumbled, dark clouds pressed down on the city, the scene was spectacular, and in the depths of the clouds, a sea of thunder flowed like an ocean.

There was even a divine palace like a heavenly court, established above the sea of thunder, as if the heavenly court had reappeared, descending upon the mortal world.

"The Ancient Divine Tribulation?"

"Sea of Thunder, Ancient Heavenly Court... This is the Nine Layers of Divine Tribulation!?"

The Yin-Yang Elder's eyes widened suddenly, looking incredulous, his jaw almost dropping.

"When the Young Master broke through to Morning Glow, he only attracted the Eight Layers of Divine Tribulation. Could Meng Qingzhou's talent surpass the Young Master's!?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

The Yin-Yang Elder frowned, despite being shocked by Meng Qingzhou's monstrous talent, it couldn't shake the Young Master's position in his heart. For Ji Wushuang, talent... was the least remarkable thing about him.

"Heh, well then." The Yin-Yang Elder's eyes turned sinister, muttering to himself, "Let's see you die under the Heavenly Tribulation. This way, the Devouring Pagoda will automatically mark the target's death and won't backfire on me."

Suddenly.

Meng Qingzhou took a step forward with his right foot, and immediately a ladder appeared in the void, as if stepping on solid ground, he walked step by step towards the sea of thunder...

"The Heavenly Tribulation crossing me? How about I cross the Heavenly Tribulation!"
