173: Chapter 173 Breaking Through the Tribulation Realm! The Sainthood Tribulation?

Divine Bodies—those were powerful Physiques above the Saint Body, and until now, none had ever appeared.

In the vast North Heaven Province, the most powerful special Physique was merely a First-Class Saint Body.

Prodigies possessing a Divine Body were likely only found in the large provinces overseen by Great Saint or even Saint King experts.

Every Divine Body was a powerful Physique that seized the creation of Heaven and Earth; they were flawless.

Even possessing the weakest Divine Body, reaching the Great Saint Realm or even the Saint King cultivation level...

...was something that could be easily achieved simply by cultivating step-by-step, as long as one did not perish midway.

As for the Quasi-Emperor cultivation level, as long as one worked a bit harder, it was not impossible to reach.

And owners of powerful Divine Bodies, as long as they grew smoothly, could easily reach the Quasi-Emperor cultivation level.

They could even impact that ethereal Great Emperor Realm that had once existed.

They were the undisputed top prodigies in the entire world!

Ye Chen gazed at the exquisite jade bottle before him, his eyes filled with joy.

The Guishui Divine Body—he had heard of it; it was one of the Five Elements Divine Bodies and governed the Dao of Water.

If classified according to the tiers of Divine Bodies, it should belong to the ranks of first-class Divine Bodies.

Such a powerful first-class Divine Body, yet he could directly produce three of them through the creation divine water!

"This Sign-in reward is truly impressive!"

Saying that, Ye Chen impatiently grabbed the exquisite jade bottle and opened the cap.

*Whoosh—*

In an instant, an inexpressibly mysterious aura and boundless pure energy gushed out from the jade bottle.

The entire Shanhe Hall was filled with this energy aura, becoming even more unfathomable.

Feeling this mysterious energy aura, a look of surprise appeared on Ye Chen's face.

"Is this the powerful divine object that can produce a Guishui Divine Body?"

"If it weren't for the fact that my Physique has already been refined by the divine grade marrow cleansing pill..."

"...and although I don't possess any special Physique, I am stronger than all special Physiques..."

"...I might really have to try the wonderful effects of this creation divine water!"

He put the cap back on, and the mysterious energy aura vanished in an instant.

Seeing this, Ye Chen raised an eyebrow.

It seemed that even this ordinary-looking jade bottle was no ordinary object.

How could a common item suppress all the mysteries of the creation divine water within the bottle?

As expected, products from the System were always top-tier; even a bottle was extraordinary!

However, who could these three drops of creation divine water be given to?

For his father, Ye Juntian, who was far away in the Tianyun Kingdom, he would naturally leave one drop.

But he didn't know if his hot-tempered Revered Master from the Hundred Saints Sect, Niu Lengzi, would need the creation divine water.

The Guishui Divine Body was of the water attribute and was most suitable for women with the same water attribute; their cultivation speed would be much faster.

But he didn't seem to know any female Martial Artists with whom he had a good relationship.

After some thought, Ye Chen shook his head and set the idea aside for the time being.

"Forget it, I'll decide who to give the creation divine water to when the time comes."

No matter how much he thought about it now, he couldn't come up with a suitable solution.

Instead of pondering a solution to a problem that hadn't arrived yet, it was better to wait for things to come to him.

"Whew!"

Ye Chen let out a long breath of turbid air and, after adjusting his breathing, slowly closed his eyes.

"Next, I will impact the Tribulation Crossing Realm!"

It was just early morning, and there was still some time before dawn.

He planned to use this time to Cultivate properly and reach the Tribulation Crossing Realm.

Once he truly broke through to the Tribulation Crossing Realm, he would then seek out the Grand Elder to investigate the matters of the Beihan Province!

*Hum—*

As Ye Chen began to circulate the Chaos Scripture, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi drifting between heaven and earth all poured into him.

On the ground, a large pile of High-Grade Spirit Stones and various Heaven And Earth Treasures appeared at some point.

The energy within these High-Grade Spirit Stones and Heaven And Earth Treasures was also drawn in, surging frantically into Ye Chen's body.

With the help of this Spiritual Qi and energy, the half-step Tribulation Crossing Realm aura on his body...

...began to visibly move toward the true Tribulation Crossing Realm, becoming increasingly powerful.

Time passed, and soon, several hours had gone by.

The sky gradually brightened, and a fiery red sun rose in the east.

After a night of preparation, the experts and Disciples within the Mountain River Holy Land had all finished assembling.

They only waited for the Grand Elder's command to rush to the border and collectively resist the Blood Martial Empire.

*Rumble!!!*

Just then, the sky suddenly changed drastically, and patches of pitch-black clouds enveloped the entire Mountain River Holy Land.

Amidst the rumbling, terrifying purple lightning constantly rolled deep within the dark clouds.

The massive disturbance instantly drew the attention of the entire Mountain River Holy Land.

On the Shanhe Square, many Disciples and experts above the Profound Void Realm looked up at the sky in unison.

Deep surprise was written on the faces of all the Disciples and experts.

Who would break through their cultivation and draw a Lightning Tribulation at this critical juncture?

Most importantly, they could feel a death-like sensation from the aura of this Lightning Tribulation.

Without a doubt, the person breaking through in their Holy Land was extremely powerful.

At the very least, a new Manifest Saint Realm expert was breaking through!

After the initial surprise, joy appeared on the faces of everyone in the Mountain River Holy Land.

At this critical time, a new Manifest Saint Realm expert was being born.

For their Mountain River Holy Land, this could be considered a monumental joyous event.

They just didn't know who had drawn this Lightning Tribulation.

*Rumble!!!*

Another violent rumble sounded, and the frequency of the purple lightning's rolling increased significantly.

Not only that, but the aura surging from within became even more terrifying, making one's hair stand on end.

Feeling this terrifying aura, the people of the Mountain River Holy Land on the Shanhe Square couldn't help but shiver.

They took back what they had just said; this was simply not a Lightning Tribulation that a Manifest Saint Realm expert's Breakthrough could draw.

If it were merely a Manifest Saint Realm expert's Breakthrough, it would be impossible to give them all this feeling of dread.

The Saint Realm—this was clearly a Breakthrough by a Saint Realm expert above the Manifest Saint Realm!

On the high platform, Xu Gu frowned, his face full of confusion.

He didn't recall any Elder at the Peak of the Manifest Saint Realm showing signs of a Breakthrough recently.

A Peak Manifest Saint Realm expert breaking through to the Saint Realm was a monumental event.

It was impossible to break through so rashly and without preparation, drawing a Lightning Tribulation.

So, who exactly drew this Lightning Tribulation overhead?

"Interesting, that kid Ye Chen is actually breaking through to the Tribulation Crossing Realm at this time!"

At that moment, space was torn open, and Jiang Wuji's figure appeared in the sky.

As his figure emerged, a massive protective shield instantly condensed around the Mountain River Holy Land.

The Sect Protection Array enveloped the entire Mountain River Holy Land in the blink of an eye.

His voice fell, echoing across the entire Shanhe Square and reaching everyone's ears.

Hearing this, everyone in the Mountain River Holy Land was instantly shocked.

Ye Chen was the current First Holy Son of their Mountain River Holy Land.

Was it that Ye Chen who had just led the prodigies of the East State Empire to slay all the geniuses of the Blood Martial Empire...

...and won first place in the North Heaven Province Assembly?!

Suddenly, some quick-witted members of the Mountain River Holy Land reacted, and their hearts were even more shocked.

Wait, the Grand Elder said this was Ye Chen breaking through to the Tribulation Crossing Realm.

Could that terrifying Lightning Tribulation overhead actually be drawn by a Breakthrough to the Tribulation Crossing Realm?

Whose Tribulation Crossing Realm Breakthrough could draw such a terrifying Saint-Becoming Tribulation comparable to the Saint Realm?!
