Chapter 1210: The dignity of the heavenly tribulation
During the era of the ancient Heavenly City, there had only been two great masters who were fortunate enough to successfully refine their ’33 Divine Beasts’ Combined Magical Treasure’ before ascending to the Fifth Stage.
Song Shuhang wondered which of those two great masters the heavenly tribulation had decided to copy while creating its version of the combined magical treasure.
In all honesty, he hoped that the 33 kinds of magical treasures could be combined and made into a giant robot as it was every boy’s dream to be able to have a giant mecha of their own. This dream was at the same level, if not even higher, compared to man’s dream of flying in the sky. After all, the giant mecha would very likely allow one to fly as well—it was a two in one, truly worth having.
Just imagine: while he was dueling, he would take out the 33 kinds of magical treasures, and shout, “Combine!”
And after that, a huge mecha would appear behind him. How domineering would that be?
“Crack, crack!” After the 33 kinds of magical treasures successfully combined, the lightning and thunder in the sky dispersed.
Afterward, a huge Rubik’s Cube appeared in the air. The Rubik’s Cube was unceasingly twisting and changing shape.
Song Shuhang: “…”
Heavens, what the hell is this!
After working so hard to collect the 33 kinds of magical treasures, not only did they not turn into a domineering mech, but they actually became a Rubik’s Cube?
Hell, a simple giant sword or even something like a God Slaying Cannon, or pretty much anything else would have been cooler than a Rubik’s Cube.
For a moment, Song Shuhang’s desire to collect the 33 magical treasures dimmed, as his heart grew cold.
However, immediately after, he comforted himself. “Perhaps it’s because the one who made it wasn’t a practitioner of the huge whale system; maybe if the user is swapped with someone of the huge whale system, the result might not be a Rubik’s Cube.”
Before the heavenly tribulation descended, Song Shuhang shared some information with Ye Si. “This is the life-bound magical treasure of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Sect as well as its predecessor, the ancient Heavenly City’s Divine Beast Department. I have recently been searching for the method to forge these 33 magical treasures before I ascend to the Fifth Stage. Their power is definitely very high! Be extra careful.”
This was a magical treasure that even Senior White Two had praised; it strength definitely could not be doubted.
“How does it attack?” Ye Si stared at the Rubik’s Cube in the sky.
Every time the Rubik’s Cube changed, the aura it emitted changed, which made one unable to see through it and understand its abilities.
Song Shuhang shook his head, and said, “I don’t know. However, no matter what, be careful.”
While he was saying that, the Rubik’s Cube in the sky suddenly shrank.
The Rubik’s Cube still continued to twist and turn.
The scene they were currently seeing was very sci-fi.
After a breath of time, the combined Rubik’s Cube transformed into a giant shield standing tall in the sky.
Unexpectedly, it did not attack, and took a defensive posture instead.
“Eh, it can change shape?” Song Shuhang felt greatly relieved in his heart. It’s great that it has other forms, I was afraid that it only had the Rubik’s Cube form.
At the other side, Ye Si followed Song Shuhang’s advice and remained highly vigilant. When the Rubik’s Cube changed shape, she turned on all of the tribulation-transcending formations beneath her feet and took out all kinds of defensive magic treasures from her life-bound golden book.
Coupled with the ‘saber intent armor’ on her body and the virtuous lamia constantly rubbing her face, the current level of Ye Si’s defense could be said to be terrifying.
In the sky, the huge shield stood steadily and did not move a single inch.
Ye Si propped up all of her defenses, remained highly vigilant, and continued to stare at the heavenly tribulation.
Time passed minute by minute and second by second.
If the enemy does not move, I won’t move, either.
As the heavenly tribulation did not move, Ye Si did not dare to move, either.
Time continued to flow during this intense confrontation.
Song Shuhang: “…”
The heavenly tribulation actually did not go on the offense, and assumed a defensive stance instead. What’s happening?
Is a heavenly tribulation that does not attack still a heavenly tribulation?
Ye Si said, “Shuhang, should we try to attack it?”
She said this as she felt the she could not keep up her current state for much longer.
The defensive formations did not consume much energy, but the lamia’s actions towards her were getting more and more intimate and excessive; she was feeling more and more ashamed…
Song Shuhang said, “Wait for a while more. It won’t be good if it has some sort of powerful counterattack ability. Let’s take this slowly; since it could become a shield, it’s very likely that it can also transform into a giant sword and other things.”
“Okay.” Ye Si nodded. Shuhang made a very reasonable point. If the 33 combined magical treasures were to suddenly change into an offensive form at the moment she attacked, it would place her in a horrible position.
More and more time continued to pass.
The heavenly tribulation was very patient; it was still completely still.
Ye Si said, “Mm~ Um~ Stop messing around~ Nh~.”
Specchless, Song Shuhang turned his head to looked at her.
The virtuous lamia seemed to sense her owner’s gaze, and immediately stopped her petty movements. She now stood behind Ye Si with a serious face.
Song Shuhang sighed quietly.
Can’t you take transcending the tribulation a bit more seriously?
This is the heavenly tribulation! If you aren’t careful, your body and soul might be completely destroyed, and everything you’ve worked for so far would be reduced to ashes!
Anyhow, looking at the giant shield form of the heavenly tribulation, Song Shuhang suddenly remembered Sage Monarch Winter Melon.
What would happen if Sage Monarch Winter Melon encountered such a wave during his heavenly tribulation?
A scene immediately appeared in Song Shuhang’s mind.
Sage Monarch Winter Melon: “Holy knight aura, armor intent, life-bound magical treasure giant shield, Daoist Indestructible Body of the Buddha. Come at me, I dare you to come at me!”
Heavenly Tribulation: Giant Shield Defensive State!
Sage Monarch Winter Melon: “Iron Fortress of Absolute Defense, come on, fight me!”
Heavenly Tribulation: Giant Shield Defensive State!
Sage Monarch Winter Melon: “Come on, come at me.”
Heavenly Tribulation: Giant Shield Defensive State!
Eventually, Sage Monarch Winter Melon would become exhausted, and he might end up becoming the first practitioner to be tired to death by the heavenly tribulation in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm.
❄️❄️❄️
Time flew, and Song Shuhang and Ye Si were still simply standing there.
Ye Si said, “Hey, Shuhang. It’s still hasn’t moved.”
Song Shuhang: “…”
This heavenly tribulation was really unscientific and unreliable.
What happened to the dignity of the heavenly tribulation?
If the heavenly tribulation wasn’t going to attack, what was the reason for bringing out the shield?
Song Shuhang said, “Ye Si, don’t move. I’ll try to attack it.” Song Shuhang’s attack power was lower than that of Ye Si; as such, even if there was a backlash, it would be much easier to bear.
After saying that, Song Shuhang sent out the invisible saber insect.
The treasured saber Broken Tyrant was still being modified by Senior White, and he had still not gotten it back.
“I should use the ‘Flaming Saber Technique’, the ordinary version.” Song Shuhang thought for a moment, and then waved the invisible saber insect towards the giant shield in the sky.
As he only used the ordinary Flaming Saber Technique, a half-moon-shaped flame shot towards the giant shield.
“Boom!”
The half-moon-shaped Flaming Saber Technique slashed at the giant shield and then dissipated. The combined giant shield took no damage at all, and the initially expected ‘rebound’ did not appear, either.
Song Shuhang said, “Ye Si, could it be that the last wave of your tribulation is testing whether you’re able to cut the giant shield?”
Ye Si responded, “Then, should I just make my move?”
“No, let me try something first.” Song Shuhang took off the ‘Swordsman Wooden Ox’s glove of passion’ on his hand and gritted his teeth as he grabbed his right hand, pulling hard.
“Plop~” Song Shuhang removed his right hand. The joint between the wrist of his right hand and his arm appeared to be liquefied.
Well, the liquefied body did have its advantages.
Ye Si’s eyes, who was not far away, widened. Heavens, only such a short time has passed. What has happened to Song Shuhang in the meantime?
Song Shuhang grabbed his right hand with his left hand, and vigorously threw it towards the sky. “Go, look at my divine right hand!”
When he threw his right hand, Song Shuhang also used the methods of the sword controlling technique to make it fly higher and farther.
However, his right hand did not directly hit the giant shield in the sky, but rather stopped at a distance of 10 meters from the combined treasure of the heavenly tribulation.
“The distance is just right,” Song Shuhang said with satisfaction—as he became more proficient with the ‘secret appraisal technique’, when he was appraising objects, there were times when he could even appraise them from a certain distance.
However, the probability of failure was relatively high.
Let’s do this. Secret appraisal technique! Song Shuhang said in his head.
He didn’t dare to make his right hand directly grab the combined giant shield. What if it instantly turned into steam? If it did, then he would really have to go to Sage Monarch Winter Melon to find that medicinal herbs that could allow him to regenerate his body parts.
“Rip~” Several wounds emerged on Song Shuhang’s body, but this time, rather than blood flowing out, it was a slimy liquid instead.
What was really great and amazing was that after the slimy liquid got spewed out, he would only need to touch it to reintegrate it back into his body. The wounds on his body were even less of a problem as he could simply fill it up again. After all, his physical constitution was now a mass of liquid.
The only regretful thing was that the severe pain caused by the secret appraisal technique was still present, and the pain he felt was even enhanced.
Song Shuhang gritted his teeth. “If there are advantages, there would also be disadvantages, but overall, this change is on the good side. At least now I don’t have to worry about replenishing my blood.”
Perhaps the next time he used the ‘secret appraisal technique’, he could consider having Senior Phoenix Slayer place him in this state again.
Speaking of which, he really felt that Phoenix Slayer was just filled with treasures. Not only could he be used for his CPU, but he could even liquefy your body and make you immune to physical harm and damage.
The golden runes in Song Shuhang’s eyes flowed out and landed on the giant shield.
However, the runes did not return.
The appraisal failed.
“It seems that my luck today is quite bad.” Song Shuhang gritted his teeth, and cast the secret appraisal technique again.
Failure was the avenue to success, and was also the mother of success—its identity was rather complicated. Nevertheless, failure wasn’t completely bad.
Once again, Song Shuhang sprayed out slimy liquid from all over his body, but after some time, he recovered the liquid.
The secret appraisal technique went on display once again, and the process repeated.
However, the appraisal failed again.
“It has failed twice in a row, that isn’t good. Did I forget something?” Song Shuhang thought about it, and an idea flashed in his mind.
He took out his cell phone and opened up a Senior White emoticon.
With Senior White out here, I might be luckier.
“Senior White, please bless me! Reckless but no more than thrice… bah! I meant, please let me succeed at the third try.” Song Shuhang once again urged the secret appraisal technique.
The process repeated again, and slimy liquid sprayed out from all over his body, and then recovered.
The golden runes were sent out.
“Success!” Song Shuhang had an intuition in mind that the secret appraisal technique would work this time. This was the same feeling when shooting at someone and feeling like you hit them.
At this moment, a spatial gate suddenly appeared.
A bald man wearing a red robe and covered in blood came out of the spatial gate.
The golden runes fell on the red-robed baldy.
Song Shuhang: “…”
F**********ck!
