Chapter 354: Heart Tempering Tribulation

“Ye Ruxue?” Su Chen looked at the woman before him and said softly.

The current Ye Ruxue was completely different from his impression. She exuded a particularly unique aura, and the more he looked at her, the more transcendent she appeared as if she were in harmony with the heavens and the earth.

Su Chen was even more surprised to discover that Ye Ruxue’s strength had now reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm!

Behind Ye Ruxue were Long Wu, Mu Qingxue, Huo Xi, Qin Hao, and Cao Yun. He even saw Dashang’s Shang Zimo here! The strength of these women had all shockingly reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm!

The strongest, Ye Ruxue, was only a step away from becoming a great emperor. It seemed she could summon her Emperor Tribulation at any time to become a true Emperor Realm powerhouse!

“Husband… Emperor Tribulation…” Su Chen repeated softly.

In the next moment, he couldn’t help but laugh. He had clearly transcended the Saint Tribulation. How could it have become an Emperor Tribulation? If nothing unexpected happened, this was the final tribulation of the legendary Saint Tribulation, the Heart Tempering Tribulation!

However, this Heart Tempering Tribulation seemed rather lacking! The scene was clearly too fake. There was almost no need to ponder. With one look he knew none of this was real.

“Big brother! You became an Emperor?”

“Congratulations on becoming a great emperor, Senior Brother!”

“Senior Brother, is our Great Mystery Sacred Sect going to change its name again?”

“Hahaha, I knew Senior Brother Su Chen was no ordinary person!”

“From the start, 1 knew Senior Brother Su Chen was extraordinary!”

At this moment, more and more people were walking over from the distance. Among them were the Supreme Elder, Holy Lord, and many elders of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect.

If one observed carefully, there were also the Eldest Prince, Ninth Princess, and others of the Dachu Empire. Their eyes were filled with admiration and envy.

“Heh… The Heart Tempering Tribulation is nothing more than this!” Su Chen looked at the scene before him and shook his head slightly.

As he finished speaking, he slowly raised his hand. The Azure Dragon Sword had also become an imperial weapon.

As the Azure Dragon Sword appeared, the surrounding void began to tremble. It was surrounded by intertwining mountains and rivers, and the power of the Dao and the laws descended, causing the surrounding void to crumble under its immense pressure.

Under the puzzled gazes of countless people, the Azure Dragon Sword in Su Chen’s hand let out an earth-shaking roar as he slashed out.

Boom!

The Azure Dragon Sword possessed an unparalleled divine might, within which was the essence of the entire universe as if it were a vast world in itself. With a single slash, innumerable living beings were annihilated.

Since he knew this world before him was fake, his first thought was to break through it with brute force. He did not want to waste any more time here. Therefore, he had no choice but to act this way.

“Husband, what are you doing?”

“Big brother!”

“Big brother, why did you attack me? Big Brother, open your eyes and look clearly! I’m Qin Hao!”

“Senior Brother? I’m Cao Yun! Why did you attack me?”

“Senior Brother! Why are you doing this? Do you want to destroy our Great Mystery Sacred Sect?”

“Senior Su Chen, what is the meaning of this? We followed you for countless years. Now that you’ve become an emperor, are you going to sever ties? I really didn’t expect you to be so heartless!”

“Senior Su Chen, are you trying to massacre us all?”

“Heh…l didn’t expect the only great emperor in the world would be a hypocrite!”

Everyone present was greatly shocked and retreated. However, their speed was far inferior to that of the Azure Dragon Sword. In but the blink of an eye, over half of those living beings perished.

“No… Something’s wrong! Something is very, very wrong!”

Su Chen looked at Cao Yun and the others lying in pools of blood. His brows furrowed again as he felt a little uneasy. By doing this, it seemed he had not left the illusory realm formed by the Heart Tempering Tribulation. On the contrary, it was almost as if he had sunk even deeper!

If this continued… He was afraid not only would he be unable to leave this place, he might even end up trapped here forever!

Thinking of this, he ceased his actions and stood quietly in the void. His entire being was like a statue, completely motionless.

“Big brother, what’s going on?”

In the distance, Qin Hao and other people of the Su family warily looked at Su Chen.

Although this was the illusory realm of the Heart Tempering Tribulation, Ye Ruxue, Qin Hao, Mu Qingxue and the others seemed like real existences. Each of them possessed independent thoughts, as if truly alive.

Su Chen’s sudden attack had left a massive shadow in their hearts. As a result, none of them dared to approach him now.

After all, Su Chen had already become a great emperor. They were merely at the Quasi-Emperor Realm. If they approached rashly, it would be easy for Su Chen to panic and attack.

“I’m not sure what’s going on with Husband…” Ye Ruxue’s willowy brows knitted lightly as she pursed her lips. She looked at Su Chen, confusion filling her eyes.

ii

No! Something is really wrong! Heart Tempering Tribulation… Heart Tempering Tribulation…” Unlike those around him, Su Chen continuously repeated.

It seemed amidst his haziness, he had grasped at something. Yet he was unable to thoroughly comprehend it.

Throughout history, many powerful experts had perished within the Heart Tempering Tribulation. The Heavenly Dao would likely not design an illusion so easily seen through at a glance. If it was really so simple to completely see through the Heart Tempering Tribulation, the Saint Tribulation could not be considered a true calamity.

“I can’t distinguish what exactly is wrong!” Su Chen frowned, thoroughly puzzled.

As he racked his brains, time passed bit by bit. Ye Ruxue and the others did not leave, only quietly keeping him company.

One year.

Ten years.

A hundred years.

A thousand years.

A thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.

“I can’t tell! I really can’t!” Su Chen kept muttering.

Nearly three thousand years had passed. Only now did Su Chen suddenly turn around. He looked at Ye Ruxue and the others behind him, as well as the people he had killed before who were now long dead beyond all hope of revival. He froze in place.

“Heart Tempering… Heart Tempering…” he murmured once more.

At this moment, his originally clouded gaze gradually cleared. He revealed a bitter smile and spoke in a low voice, “So it turns out…I’ve been completely wrong this whole time…”

The Heart Tempering Tribulation could not be broken through by force, which had already been verified by him from the very start. This was a heavenly tribulation that reached deep into the depths of his heart. If he could not see through his own heart, even spending tens of thousands of years here would likely be insufficient for him to thoroughly comprehend it.

Here, he could stay as long as he wanted, but his physical body in the outside world could not. If he remained trapped in this illusion created by the Heart Tempering Tribulation, those in the outside world would likely believe he had completely perished within the tribulation.

No! Perhaps…. They are not tools! They are fellow Daoists who can fight alongside me! They are brothers! Wife! And my family! They can be anything, anything but tools!”
