Chapter 2532: Death “Ah? Why is that?” The Mermaid Queen was taken aback. “The strength of the tribulation lightning is linked to the challenger’s future cultivation limit. The weaker the tribulation lightning, the lower their limit will be,” Yumen Beiqing replied. Objectively speaking, the heavenly tribulation Zu An faced wasn't weak, but she still felt a little disappointed. The Mermaid Queen smiled. “That’s nothing. I just need big brother Zu to be safe and sound.” Yumen Beiqing glanced at her. This woman is a famous figure in that world, so why does it seem as if her mind turned to mush after meeting that fellow? What charm does he have, to leave so many women falling head over heels for him... A crimson lightning sphere descended toward Zu An. It floated down slowly, but no matter how Zu An dodged, the sphere followed his movements. He spent some time dodging the spheres to first calm the ki inside his body before hurling a series of punches at them. He was glad to have once possessed the Cultivation World’s World’s Law Beacon, which deepened his understanding of ki to a high level. This confrontation with the lightning spheres could seem reckless, but he was capable of using the smallest force to unravel the latter’s weakest spot. Perhaps he'd look disorganized in others’ eyes, but in truth, he had minimized his ki depletion. After Zu An shattered the nine crimson lightning spheres, the Mermaid Queen was about to cheer when her smile froze in place. She noticed that the tribulation clouds were still refusing to scatter, and orange tribulation lightning was starting to manifest. Yumen Beiqing widened her eyes. “Ah, it’s the legendary Seven-Colored Divine Tribulation!” “Is it dangerous?” The Mermaid Queen felt her heart clenching. Yumen Beiqing nodded. “It’s very dangerous. Only two or three people have been known to have cleared this tribulation since ancient times. Others who encountered this tribulation were all decimated.” She'd initially thought the tribulation lightning was too weak, but that wasn’t the case at all. If anything, it was too strong! “Are there no solutions?” At this moment, the Mermaid Queen couldn’t care less why Yumen Beiqing knew so much; her attention was devoted to overcoming the current crisis. Yumen Beiqing didn’t answer, but her gaze looked grim. Even those who have prepared for the Seven-Colored Divine Tribulation are likely to die, let alone the unprepared Zu An. Everything I have prepared and worked for has been futile anyway, so this isn’t that bad... The orange tribulation lightning in the sky merged to form a terrifying whip. It lashed straight toward Zu An, slicing through space wherever it passed. Yi was stunned to witness that. “The Seven-Colored Divine Tribulation? Brother Necropolis is indeed an extraordinary man!” Angry rumbles echoed beneath him. Gu’s massive snake body was squirming under him, trying to get back up. “Stay still!” While observing the heavenly tribulation, Yi hurled another series of punches at Gu’s head. “How dare you humiliate me!” Gu’s eyes were spinning from the consecutive punches. Blood flowed from his mouth and nose. When had he, a celestial, suffered such grievance? “Are you resorting to your mouth because your punches aren’t strong enough?” Yi sneered. “My father is the Torch Dragon! You’ll have hell to pay for if you dare touch me!” Gu roared. Given his lofty bloodline and his high standing as a celestial, he'd thought he could easily subdue an unaffiliated cultivator. Initially, everything went smoothly; he'd easily wrapped his body around his opponent’s neck. Little had he expected his opponent to bite him, leaving a gaping hole in his steel-like body! How the hell did he train his teeth? Are his teeth his soulbound artifact? Yi’s face darkened. “I look down on those who rely on nepotism!” He continued smashing his fist into Gu until the latter’s head swelled like a pig head. He had grown up as an orphan and gone through a lot from a young age, which was why he scorned those who only relied on their parents. “I don’t believe that you would dare kill me!” Gu scoffed in anger despite being completely pinned down. His father was one of the strongest experts in the world, and his mother was of exalted standing too. Given that this bastard was also from the Shaman races, he didn't think that the other party would truly dare take his life. Yi’s gaze turned cold. “I shall purge you on behalf of our Shaman races!” The suffering he'd gone through from a young age had nurtured a reckless, extreme personality. Faced with Gu’s provocation, he couldn’t withhold his killing intent anymore. He gathered immense destructive energy in his fist and hurled it at Gu’s head. However, a beam of golden light suddenly shot down. Yi quickly changed the direction of the punch to strike the light. Boom! A loud explosion ensued, and Yi was jolted a hundred meters back. He looked in a certain direction with a grim expression. Golden lights suddenly lit up the sky, and a dashing man emerged. He had a sharp hook nose, thin lips, and long eyes that gave off an air of cold authority. Yumen Beiqing glanced at the golden lights in astonishment. “What is he doing here?” The dashing man noticed the heavenly tribulation and remarked, “The Seven-Colored Divine Tribulation? To think someone in this world is capable of evoking such a heavenly tribulation!” He was interested in taking a look, but he needed to settle the issue before him first. Yi looked at the dashing man with a frown. “Dijun?” The other party was of exalted status. Why would he suddenly appear here? The dashing man shook his head at Yi. “What a pity.” Despite knowing that the other party was stringing him along, Yi still asked, “What’s a pity?” 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂 “You easily defeated Gu, a celestial. It was only a matter of time before you became a top-notch expert in the world. It’s a pity you won’t have the chance to do so,” the dashing man said with a sigh. Yi narrowed his eyes in confusion. “You’re planning to kill me?” Dijun was already the regent Celestial Emperor, and Zhuanxu was soon to officially step down from his position. Given that there was no grudge between them, why would Dijun want to take his life? “You shouldn’t have appeared here.” Dijun slowly raised his finger. Yi was taken aback. There was no time for him to ponder the reason; at this moment, he felt unprecedented danger. Without hesitation, he drew the bow he'd never touched during his battle with Gu. He pulled his bowstring and unleashed a brilliant arrow reminiscent of a shooting star at Dijun. Dijun also released a golden light beam from his hand that collided with Yi’s arrow. The beam tore through the arrow, and Yi watched in bewilderment as it shot into his forehead. At the same time, Dijun looked down and saw the two halves of the arrow lodged in his body. Two droplets of golden blood dripped from his wounds, causing the earth beneath to blaze into flames. A divine light shone from his body, and the two arrow halves were reduced to ashes. His voice was filled with commendation. “What exquisite archery. If you had a good bow, you would have been able to put up a fight against me. A pity indeed.”
