The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
How could that nameless kid at merely the 7th level possibly endure it?” “...” For the millions of people present, the only way to survive the Fire Spirit Tiger was to use a vast amount of spiritual power to form a protective barrier around the body. At the same time— Inside the bodies of 2 Fire Spirit Tigers, Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi felt as if they had fallen into hell! I didn’t think he would survive the test,” Mu Mengyi said softly as she shifted her gaze from Tan Yun to Wang Fuchen and Li...
After the 3 Fire Spirit Tigers swallowed the 3 people, their figures disappeared from the sight of the crowd.
From afar, the spectators could see only 3 flaming tigers standing tall upon the Creation Platform.
Who exactly would survive until the very end of the trial—
the answer would only appear once the trial ended!
The crowd began whispering among themselves, each person expressing their own opinion...
“Ahhh!”
“No…!”
Suddenly, 2 terrified screams echoed from inside the fire tigers.
Wang Tianyou and Liang Xiao instantly turned pale, panic surging in their hearts!
Those familiar voices—
belonged to their beloved sons, Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi!
“That’s the voice of the City Lord’s Young Master and Young Master Liang!”
“Could it be that they’ve died?!”
“...”
The townspeople were shocked and began whispering nervously.
Wang Tianyou and Liang Xiao shouted anxiously.
“My son! What happened?! Don’t scare your father!”
Suddenly, trembling voices came from within the fire tigers.
“Father, don’t worry… your son is not dead!”
“Father, rest assured. I will never die!”
Upon hearing this,
Wang Tianyou and Liang Xiao both breathed sighs of relief!
After confirming that the 2 of them were still alive,
the crowd’s gaze shifted toward the fire tiger that had swallowed Tan Yun.
“Huh? What’s going on? Why hasn’t he made any sound at all?”
“Could it be that he can withstand the flames?”
“Haha, brother, are you joking? That kid must have already been burned into ashes. How could he make any sound?”
“That’s right! What this brother says makes the most sense!”
Another person added,
“Think about it. The City Lord’s Young Master and Young Master Liang are both 9th-level Spirit Embryo Realm experts. Even they can barely withstand the flames. How could that nameless kid at merely the 7th level possibly endure it?”
“...”
For the millions of people present,
the only way to survive the Fire Spirit Tiger was to use a vast amount of spiritual power to form a protective barrier around the body.
Therefore, it was not unreasonable for everyone to believe that Tan Yun was already dead.
After all—
Tan Yun was only at the 7th level of the Spirit Embryo Realm...
However, while everyone believed Tan Yun must certainly be dead,
there was 1 person who did not think so.
That person was Mu Mengyi.
Because the flames interfered with spiritual perception,
she could not examine what was happening inside.
But deep in her heart,
she had a strange feeling that
this Tan Yun… was different from the others!
At the same time—
Inside the bodies of 2 Fire Spirit Tigers,
Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi felt as if they had fallen into hell!
The flames roared wildly, transforming into fire serpents that continuously launched attacks at them!
Both of their faces turned pale.
Their lips cracked and dried.
The skin across their bodies split open, with blood slowly seeping out, like land that had been barren for 1,000 years.
But the moment the blood flowed out,
it was instantly evaporated by the terrifying heat!
Both of them were tense to the extreme.
They poured all of their remaining 50% spiritual power
into strengthening their protective energy barrier,
resisting the frenzied fire serpents that kept charging at them!
However—
inside the belly of the 3rd Fire Spirit Tiger,
the scene was completely different!
The violent flames surged toward Tan Yun,
yet they could not harm him in the slightest!
Tan Yun stood within the raging sea of fire,
but he did not feel any heat at all!
All of this was because—
within his right palm, a Primordial Flame was slumbering!
The Primordial Flame was one of the supreme flames of Heaven and Earth.
Since Tan Yun possessed it,
not only could the flames of the Ice Flame Spirit Tiger not burn him,
even the flames of ancient sacred birds such as
the Fire Phoenix,
the Golden Crow,
the Azure Duck,
and the Hundred-Voiced Spirit Bird…
would also be unable to harm him!
Which have existed since the Primordial Era,
still could not harm him at all!
At this moment, under the immense pressure, Tan Yun’s body was covered in blood and trembling violently!
The spiritual power within his spirit pool had already dropped to less than 30%. To endure until the final moment, he had to rely on his powerful physical body and his spiritual energy armor to resist the pressure!
When Tan Yun thought about Liu Rulong, who was a threat to his family, as well as the gods who had betrayed him, his star-like eyes revealed an unyielding determination!
No matter what… he had to endure until the test ended!
As time slowly passed, the painful cries of Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi continued to echo from inside the Flame Tigers. No one could imagine the horrific torment they were experiencing!
Throughout this time, Mu Mengyi kept her eyes fixed on the Flame Spirit Tiger that was devouring Tan Yun. Because Tan Yun had not made a single sound the entire time, she now believed she had overestimated him.
In her mind… Tan Yun was probably already dead!
When there were only 10 breaths left before 1 hour was completed, millions of people in the arena held their breath. Their eyes were wide open as they stared at the Creation Platform, preparing to witness the birth of a disciple of the Huangfu Sacred Sect…
“I… can’t hold on anymore… why isn’t the time over yet!”
Despair gripped Tan Yun’s heart. The spiritual power in his spirit pool was about to be completely exhausted!
Inside the Flame Tigers, Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi were terrified to the extreme. The spiritual power in their spirit pools had fallen to less than 10%. Under the overwhelming pressure, they collapsed onto the platform like turtles being crushed beneath a heavy weight!
Both of them held their breath and gritted their teeth to endure, completely unaware that death was approaching them!
Just as the 3 of them were about to die, suddenly a voice like heavenly music rang in their ears.
“Spirit Tiger… time is up!”
“Roar!”
The Ice-Flame Tiger nodded heavily. In the blink of an eye, the 3 Flame Tigers on the Creation Platform disappeared without a trace. At the same time, the terrifying pressure completely vanished!
Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi, whose bodies were covered with wounds and who were breathing heavily, collapsed onto the stage. Meanwhile, Tan Yun stood on the platform, swaying unsteadily!
When the millions of people in the arena saw the 3 of them clearly, the entire venue fell silent for a moment before erupting into a thunderous uproar!
“Heavens above… a kid who is only at the 7th level of the Spirit Embryo Realm is still alive! Am I seeing things?”
“Yes! It’s truly unbelievable!”
“Moreover, the test has ended, yet people from 3 families all survived! Something like this has never happened before!”
“What do you mean ‘never happened before’? That just shows how little you know! I once heard that more than 1,000 years ago, several people also passed the test. However, the Huangfu Sacred Sect has strict rules. Each city can only accept 1 strongest person, so there was an extra round of competition where they fought until only the strongest remained!”
“Yes, yes! I’ve heard about that too. This is going to be exciting!”
The sound of discussion spread loudly throughout the crowd.
City Lord Wang Tianyou and Liang Xiao, the Patriarch of the Liang Family, both frowned deeply. They had not expected that there would be an additional round of combat!
On the Creation Platform, Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi, who had recovered some of their strength, stood up. The two looked at each other unfriendly before turning to glare at Tan Yun with hostile eyes!
The 3 men—Tan Yun, Liang Qidi, and Wang Fuchen—stood side by side. Each of them concealed their own thoughts. Everyone could see that Tan Yun was the most seriously injured, followed by Liang Qidi, while Wang Fuchen had suffered much lighter injuries than the other two!
Tan Yun glanced at the two from the corner of his eye, his heart growing heavy.
“My spiritual power is almost exhausted. No matter who I face next, it will definitely be a tough battle!”
“This is truly beyond my expectations. I didn’t think he would survive the test,” Mu Mengyi said softly as she shifted her gaze from Tan Yun to Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi.
“This selection has truly surprised me. However, there is only 1 position.”
“In a moment, the 3 of you will draw lots to determine the winner.”
