Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 626 - Breaking Through to Divine Nascent

Chen Fan was trying to advance to the Divine Nascent realm.

After three months of accumulation, his foundation was already deep. His progress was remarkably smooth. He shattered the realm barrier almost instantly.

Crack, crack.

Cracks formed on the surface of his golden core. The divine nascent would emerge after the core broke.

Woo, woo, woo. Woo, woo, woo...

As Chen Fan’s divine nascent unleashed its aura, the wind and the clouds immediately changed colors. The sky darkened as his tribulation clouds gathered.

Qiu Yuexin, recovering from her injuries nearby, suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of fear. Startled, she opened her eyes and looked up, only to be shocked by what she saw.

The rolling tribulation clouds in the sky whistled ominously, covering tens of kilometers and continuing to expand.

“Heavens, so this is his divine nascent tribulation. How horrifying! My tribulation clouds barely spanned ten kilometers, which already far exceeded the norm. But his tribulation... it's nearly thirty kilometers wide,” Qiu Yuexin’s beautiful eyes flickered in disbelief.

As one of the top geniuses, she had always experienced tribulations that surpassed those of ordinary martial artists, be it the golden core tribulation or the divine nascent tribulation.

Take her golden core tribulation, for example. Her tribulation clouds spanned two and a half kilometers. It was a mutated heavenly tribulation that had nearly shattered her golden core.

As for her divine nascent tribulation, it spanned ten kilometers and completely leveled all the mountain peaks within range. She had barely survived that ordeal.

Without it, she wouldn’t have lasted so long against the pursuing Dragon God Army with her peak first-level Divine Nascent realm cultivation.

Qiu Yuexin smiled bitterly, looking at Chen Fan’s tribulation clouds.

Her divine nascent tribulation was nothing compared to Chen Fan’s.

She simply could not believe that someone’s divine nascent tribulation could be this horrifying—far beyond even a heavenly star tribulation.

Qiu Yuexin flitted away. She did not dare to stay here for Chen Fan’s divine nascent tribulation.

Even though she was already a Divine Nascent realm powerhouse, she knew that she couldn’t survive such a terrifying heavenly tribulation and would be completely decimated.

Qiu Yuexin finally stopped after flying fifty kilometers away, realizing she was no longer within the tribulation’s range.

When Chen Fan’s heavenly tribulation spread fifty kilometers, she was dumbstruck and felt as if her soul had left her body.

“How monstrous is this guy to summon such a horrifying heavenly tribulation? No wonder he could defy the heavens and kill the Divine Nascent realm white-bone corpse demon back then. His golden core tribulation must have also been extraordinary.”

Meanwhile, Chen Fan poured all his effort into advancing to the Divine Nascent realm.

His golden core had already cracked, and his divine nascent had appeared, about to break out of its “shell.” However, that was far from easy.

Minutes and seconds flowed by.

Boom, boom!

The primeval qi in heaven and earth suddenly became chaotic.

“His divine nascent is about to take birth!”

Sensing the violent changes in the primeval qi of heaven and earth, Qiu Yuexin narrowed her pretty eyes.

As long as Chen Fan could survive the heavenly tribulation’s baptism, he would advance into the Divine Nascent realm.

“Since this guy is such a freak, although the heavenly tribulation is very horrifying, he should be fine...”

For some unknown reason, Qiu Yuexin’s heart was pounding heavily as if it would leap out of her chest, and her breathing became rough.

Rumble!

As soon as Chen Fan’s divine nascent took birth, its aura shot straight into the sky, connecting with the Heavenly Dao. The heavenly tribulation above went berserk.

Someone as monstrously powerful as Chen Fan was a variable the Heavenly Dao couldn’t tolerate. It needed to rain down forbidden heavenly punishment to annihilate him; he couldn’t be allowed to live.

Fierce lightning fell like a torrential downpour, all of it striking Chen Fan without missing a single bolt.

The divine nascent tribulation was separated into two parts.

The first part targeted the physique of the person undergoing the tribulation, using the power of the lightning tribulation to destroy their flesh.

A divine nascent without a body was like a rootless weed.

The second part, which targeted the divine nascent, was the wind and fire tribulation, further divided into the wind tribulation and the fire tribulation.

The wind was the Divine Wind of Samadhi, and the fire was the Divine Flames of Samadhi.

If one failed to overcome these trials, they would turn to ashes. If they succeeded, however, they would become free and unfettered in heaven and earth.

“Heaven Seizing Furnace!”

Chen Fan summoned a true qi furnace that spanned several mu wide behind him promptly. [1]

A vortex swirled inside the furnace, refining everything. Its suction force was immense, drawing the fierce lightning into the Heaven Seizing Furnace, transforming it into qi.

Crackle!

Chen Fan seemed to have become a “lightning man.”

“Hahahaha, refreshing! Damned heavenly tribulation, come harder at me!” Chen Fan’s voice echoed in all directions, filled with arrogance and disdain. The heavenly tribulation didn’t faze him at all.

For people like Qiu Yuexin, the horrifying lightning would be an absolute disaster, impossible to endure.

However, Chen Fan’s physique was incredibly tough, powerful enough to destroy a Grade-5 treasure.

To him, this heavenly tribulation was nothing more than a mild itch, incapable of shaking his foundation.

“Feels so good!”

Chen Fan received the baptism of the fierce lightning. It felt like a downpour, with countless lightning dragons raining down on him.

They manifested in various forms—Lightning Divine Lamp, Lightning Divine Spear, Lightning Flame, Lightning Immortal Palace, and other mutated heavenly tribulations that would make anyone else’s scalp tingle with fear. Yet, they all converged on Chen Fan.

Instead of feeling pain, he felt a strange comfort. He faced the tribulation with his physique alone.

For others, facing the tribulation was a near-impossible disaster. But for Chen Fan, it was a tempering, a baptism that nourished his strength.

“This guy...” Qiu Yuexin's eyes twitched as she watched.

She had never seen someone facing their heavenly tribulation like this.

Others would try their best to avoid the heavenly tribulation, but Chen Fan felt that it wasn’t harsh enough.

“Indeed, the gap between one genius and another is huge. Only people like him can be called a true genius. So-called geniuses like us are only slightly better than ordinary martial artists and can’t be considered as true geniuses,” Qiu Yuexin muttered, utterly convinced.

“Miles of Rivers and Mountains...”

Suddenly, the lightning intensified to its peak. A painting that was formed entirely from lightning appeared.

It weaved into a painting of rivers and mountains that spanned miles, depicting the rise and fall of the times, and the cycle of the sun and moon. All of it swept toward Chen Fan.

“My god, the forbidden heavenly punishment, Miles of Rivers and Mountains, actually appeared. Does this mean the Heavenly Dao completely rejects him and wants to destroy him utterly, leaving no chance for survival?”

Qiu Yuexin’s soul trembled when she saw the painting spanned a hundred thousand feet.

Taking a clear look at the painting of lightning, she felt a sense of despair growing in her heart.

If she was the one facing this kind of calamity, she would have no chance of surviving it.

This was a catastrophe mentioned only in the most ancient cultivation records.
