Chapter 1097: Chapter 1097: Unparalleled Shock

“He withstood the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation?”

The words of the elder exploded like a thunderbolt from a clear sky next to Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong’s ears, incessantly replaying in their minds.

Even in the vast and powerful Martial Spirit Continent and Celestial Moon Continent, the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation is a one-in-ten-thousand occurrence.

In their continents, there are legends of the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, and it is said that no one has ever succeeded in overcoming it, all have been reduced to ashes.

The Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation is the nightmare of all cultivators!

These words, coming from the mouth of the Guardian of the Heavenly Realm Gate, left Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong with no choice but to believe.

If even the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation could not trouble Feng Wuchen, to what terrifying extent must his strength be?

“It’s simply astonishing! Who would have thought Brother Feng’s strength could rival the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation!” exclaimed Su Xiangyang in horror, his eyes filled with respect towards Feng Wuchen—an admiration for the strong.

“Just a stroke of luck,” Feng Wuchen replied with a modest smile.

Yan Dong quickly added, “Brother Feng, don’t be modest. Surviving the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, let alone being untroubled by it, is enough to prove your immense strength.”

“Indeed, Feng Wuchen’s strength is extremely formidable; even if the two of you joined forces, you probably couldn’t defeat him,” the elder continued.

“That strong?” Su Xiangyang was greatly shocked.

“With my strength, I am already at the peak in our continent. Even if there are other True God Realm cultivators, their strength is not much different from mine. How could someone surpass the True God Realm?” Yan Dong said in disbelief.

“That I do not know,” the elder said, shaking his head slightly. “Perhaps it has something to do with Feng Wuchen’s power. I can only observe the Human Realm and not see beyond.”

“The Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation could not trouble Brother Feng; his strength is unimaginable,” said Su Xiangyang, his zeal for battle enveloping him, almost eager to test Feng Wuchen’s prowess.

“Feng Wuchen faced the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, effortlessly shattering six layers of heavenly thunder with a single punch,” the elder said with a faint smile, clearly aware of Feng Wuchen’s tribulation process.

“With a single punch?”

“Effortlessly destroyed six layers of heavenly thunder?”

Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong stood dumbfounded, eyes nearly bulging out.

That was the legendarily terrifying Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, and Feng Wuchen had shattered six layers all at once with a single punch!

What kind of monstrous strength was that?

The Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulation already struck terror into Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong, with Yan Dong nearly reduced to nothing, while Feng Wuchen faced the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation using only a single punch against the first six layers.

“For the seventh thunder, its power doubled, and yet it was also devastated by a single punch,” continued the elder.

Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong were petrified, cold sweat trickling down their backs.

“As for the eighth, he withstood it by using a defensive technique, enduring the force of the eighth thunder.”

Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong trembled with fear, their faces as white as paper, bereft of any dignity as mighty cultivators.

“The final layer was even more shocking. Wielding powerful sword techniques and thirteen Divine Swords, Feng Wuchen launched his mightiest strike, instantly obliterating the ninth thunder and even the clouds of tribulation themselves. The power of that one sword, I’m afraid, is something even those in the Heavenly Profound Realm cannot achieve,” the elder said with a laugh, as if to scare Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong to death.

“One… one sword destroyed the ninth layer of the Heavenly Tribulation…”

Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong both collapsed to the ground, utterly drained of strength.

The extent of Feng Wuchen’s strength was so terrifying that they dared not even imagine it.

Just as the Guardian had said, even the Heavenly Profound Realm of the Heavenly Realm was not comparable to Feng Wuchen.

Cultivators from the Human Realm, with such immense strength, could actually surpass those from the Heavenly Realm!

“…” Feng Wuchen shook his head helplessly.

“You are new to the Heavenly Realm and very unfamiliar with it. I shall give you a brief introduction to the affairs of the Heavenly Realm,” the old man said indifferently.

“The Heavenly Realm is managed by the Heavenly Sovereign, the strongest ruler of the Heavenly Realm. Eight War Gods under the Heavenly Sovereign each govern one of the eight territories. Everyone must obey the will of the Heavenly Sovereign, and those who defy will die,” the old man said sternly, in a warning manner.

“What cultivation level do the Eight War Gods have?” Su Xiangyang asked curiously.

“Heavenly Emperor level!” the old man said indifferently: “The cultivation levels in the Heavenly Realm, from low to high are divided into Heavenly Profound, Heavenly King, Heavenly Monarch, Heavenly God, Heavenly Emperor, and Heavenly Sovereign six major realms, each realm is subdivided into nine stars.”

“Only six major realms?” Yan Dong asked in surprise.

“Cultivation in the Heavenly Realm is tens, even hundreds of times more difficult than you imagine. Do not underestimate these six major realms. As newcomers to the Heavenly Realm, your cultivation is merely at the Tianxuan Realm, which is the weakest realm in the Heavenly Realm,” the old man said.

“With our talent, shouldn’t we be able to reach the Heavenly Monarch Realm after cultivating for several decades?” Yan Dong asked.

“Several decades?” The old man shook his head and said, “Wishful thinking, it would already be good if you can reach the Heavenly King Realm.”

“Only Heavenly King?” Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong were once again shocked.

“Although the Spiritual Energy in the Heavenly Realm is a hundred times stronger than that of the Mainland, the higher the cultivation level, the more difficult it is to practice. Without external assistance, it’s feared that one’s cultivation may not advance even slightly,” Feng Wuchen thought to himself.

“Is cultivation in the Heavenly Realm truly so difficult to progress?” Su Xiangyang asked in horror.

“You’ll know this in time. Over the years, I’ve seen countless top talents who have ascended to the Heavenly Realm. There are many with talents above yours, but even after several decades, there are only a few who have reached the Heavenly Monarch Realm, some are even still at the Heavenly Profound Realm,” the old man said.

“Hiss…”

Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong couldn’t help but take a deep breath, unable to imagine.

The old man’s gaze turned towards Feng Wuchen, and he said with a faint smile, “If it were Feng Wuchen, he might be able to do it. Frankly, I am reluctant to believe it, but it is all true.”

“Might be able to do it?” Feng Wuchen raised an eyebrow, feeling that the old man underestimated him.

Of course, Feng Wuchen also did not know how difficult cultivation in the Heavenly Realm was.

“Brother Feng has such amazing talent?” Yan Dong asked in astonishment, looking at Feng Wuchen again.

“You have cultivated for a hundred years in the Mainland to achieve your current level of cultivation, but Feng Wuchen has only been cultivating for less than ten years. What do you think of his talent?” the old man retorted.

“What? Not… not even ten years?” Su Xiangyang and Yan Dong’s eyes widened to the extreme, utterly shocked.

“Has this old fellow been watching me in the Human Realm all along? How does he know so much about me?” Feng Wuchen frowned slightly.

“Feng Wuchen’s cultivation speed far exceeds your imagination,” the old man said with a faint smile.

“How is this possible… to enter the True God Realm in less than ten years? And to be able to counter the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation?” Su Xiangyang looked at Feng Wuchen with a stunned face, as if looking at a monster.

Top powerhouses who ascend to the Heavenly Realm, which of them has not cultivated for a hundred years, or even hundreds of years?

Yet Feng Wuchen has cultivated for less than ten years and could step into a realm that countless cultivators dream of, how could they believe it?
