The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3478 - 3473: Heaven-appointed Realm’s Zhang Xuelian_1
Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
Hearing this, Yang Chen mused internally, "Leveraging others' strengths to compensate for one's own deficiencies? Extracting the core essence of various laws and then merging them? To forge new laws from that? So that's how it's done. The universe is indeed vast and wondrous, surpassing comprehension. While the concept of extracting and fusing law essences sounds straightforward, its execution is exceedingly difficult. Even with my intellect, I can't grasp any immediate insights after pondering."
"To forge laws, one's lived experiences are also paramount. Generally, the more laws an individual comprehends, the greater the essence they can draw from these laws, resulting in more formidable created laws. For instance, Yan Luo, in his lifetime, comprehended seven laws and consequently devised one of the most potent laws known. However, for others, this path is arduous."
Princess Wenqi added with profound feeling, "Take the Nine Sect Founder of our human race; he comprehended five laws, and the laws he created are merely considered rare."
Upon hearing this, Yang Chen's curiosity intensified regarding the eventual laws his own comprehension of ten laws might yield.
"Alright, with the Spirit Separation Ancestor departed, our path beneath Bi Shuangxing is clear. Yang Chen, this locale is quite peculiar. Search diligently and endeavor to procure as many treasures as possible; it will greatly benefit our Divine Night Sect," Princess Wenqi instructed.
Yang Chen offered a smile and replied, "I understand, Senior Wenqi. You should remain concealed in the shadows and leave everything to me, a junior. Otherwise, your esteemed status would inevitably stir considerable unrest."
Should other Alien Tribes discover that a Heavenly Extreme Realm expert had ventured here, who could predict the immense trouble that might ensue?
Recognizing Yang Chen's careful consideration, Princess Wenqi gave a slight nod. Without further words, her figure flickered and vanished from the spot, entrusting everything to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen, naturally, was determined not to falter in living up to Princess Wenqi's high expectations.
He proceeded onwards, unfurling his soul and world power, collecting Origin Essence whenever it presented itself. The act of gathering Essence brought Princess Wenqi immense joy and satisfaction.
Yet, amidst collecting the Origin Essence, Yang Chen did not lose sight of his primary objective.
Locating Zhang Xuelian.
Yang Chen continued his journey smoothly and swiftly reached the Nine Palaces Sea Region.
This Nine Palaces Sea Region was no small expanse; standing above it, Yang Chen could not discern its boundaries even with a distant gaze.
However, the reach of his world power and spiritual energy compensated for this limitation.
Yang Chen advanced while conducting a thorough, sweeping search. He quickly gained a comprehensive understanding of this oceanic region, an endeavor that consumed little time.
"So, it turns out this sea region, which appears ordinary, is in fact a labyrinth. Each island is encircled by others, and every island serves as a key," Yang Chen murmured. "In this regard, this sea region is also a miraculous world treasure. It is regrettable, however, that refining this sea region would prove to be no simple feat."
Yang Chen himself had no inkling of its true nature; with his world power fully deployed, he could not even graze its periphery, let alone exert control over it.
Nevertheless, as he was exploring with his world power, Yang Chen suddenly detected a sensation.
The moment he sensed it, Yang Chen leaped as if encountering something momentous, hurtling towards it at high velocity.
...
Not far away, a Thunder Tribulation descended from the heavens, resembling a coiled colossal dragon, winding and brewing in the sky.
Within the swirling Thunder Tribulation was an woman of unparalleled beauty. She was none other than Zhang Xuelian.
Zhang Xuelian was present, urgently confronting the tribulation, which was identified as the Heavenly Tribulation for the Heaven-appointed Realm.
Furthermore, for any observer with keen insight, this tribulation's power source would be readily apparent as the exceptionally rare Seven-Nines Thunder Tribulation.
The current Zhang Xuelian presented a stark contrast to her usual self. Gone was her characteristic emotionless expression and meticulous demeanor; instead, a playful smile graced the corner of her lips. That particular expression and her mannerisms... Had Yang Chen been present, he would undoubtedly recognize her as Zhang Xuelian, yet she bore a striking resemblance to Hua Wanru.
Now, Zhang Xuelian faced this tribulation. While she managed the initial half with relative ease, as it progressed, her complexion grew increasingly pale, and her strength waned.
The faint smile adorning her lips gradually receded, replaced by a more serious countenance.
And surrounding the Thunder Tribulation, numerous individuals had congregated.
These figures were none other than the formidable experts of the Spirit God Race.
The powerful individuals of the Spirit God Race formed a tight circle around Zhang Xuelian, their intentions undeniably clear.
"This Zhang Xuelian is suddenly undergoing tribulation, which is truly peculiar. If I wasn't mistaken earlier, she still had some way to go before reaching the Heaven-appointed Realm. Furthermore, her aura has undergone other transformations as well." Broken Wind commented.
"What kind of difference?" inquired the other Spirit Gods.
Broken Wind whispered, "I can't precisely articulate it, but it feels as though she has finally attained completion, reclaiming her original strength. Should this woman ascend to the Heaven-appointed Realm, she will be a force to be reckoned with, and we must eliminate her with utmost haste."
"Hehe, Sir Broken Wind, what is there to fear? The surrounding space is already sealed shut. Moreover, she is facing the Seven-Nines Thunder Tribulation; even if she overcomes it, what then? She will be in a weakened state. Are we still apprehensive of someone so frail?" declared another powerhouse from the Spirit God race.
Broken Wind, with his hands clasped behind his back, stated dismissively, "That is true, yet we must still proceed with caution."
These formidable Spirit Gods merely watched Zhang Xuelian, anticipating the conclusion of her tribulation so they could apprehend her.
Although the Seven-Nines Thunder Tribulation raged fiercely, Zhang Xuelian was not lacking in divine powers. She unleashed her potent aura, accompanied by six distinct laws swirling around her. Zhang Xuelian continuously employed a series of Dao Techniques, and the Seven-Nines Thunder Tribulation was swiftly shattered by her might.
Finally, the ultimate manifestation of the Seven-Nines Thunder Tribulation was also completely obliterated by Zhang Xuelian.
Having weathered the Thunder Tribulation, Zhang Xuelian drew a deep breath but, upon gazing skyward, her expression swiftly turned grave.
"Zhang Xuelian, it is truly an unforeseen turn that you actually passed the Seven-Nines Thunder Tribulation. We genuinely underestimated you. But do you truly believe you can escape us now that you have surmounted the Seven-Nines Thunder Tribulation? Currently, within the Heaven-appointed Realm, your combat prowess appears somewhat diminished," Broken Wind remarked.
Zhang Xuelian let out a cold laugh, the corner of her lips curling upwards, "Broken Wind, do you genuinely think you have the ability to capture me at this moment?"
Broken Wind chuckled, "Zhang Xuelian, I assure you, I shall capture you today."
"Then you would be wise to exercise caution. Just as the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it," Zhang Xuelian stated calmly.
Broken Wind narrowed his eyes, suspecting Zhang Xuelian was attempting to intimidate him.
But in the very next instant!
