291: Chapter 291 Terrifying Power! The Inner Demon Tribulation Descends!

Above the ground, Ye Chen stood with his hands behind his back, a faint, almost imperceptible smile on his lips.

His Divine Soul power had already sensed the auras of those quasi-emperor experts.

It seemed those fellows were prepared to come and besiege him, the disruptor of Wutian Prefecture.

Eight quasi-emperor experts in total; they certainly thought highly of him, but this worked out perfectly.

If he devoured these eight quasi-emperor experts, the energy required for his Spiritual Qi Cultivation Base would be more than enough.

As for the emperor-breaking pill, he did not plan to consume it himself because it was too precious.

He had better, more effortless methods of Breakthrough; why would he need to use the emperor-breaking pill?

The emperor-breaking pill required the combined efforts of two Immortal Lineages just to barely gather enough Alchemy Materials for three batches.

He intended to use those emperor-breaking pills to Cultivate quasi-emperor experts for his own faction.

Walking the path of Cultivation alone was carefree, but it meant he would be unable to attend to other matters.

He needed more experts to stand on his side, to help him protect the people and things he wanted to guard.

Patriarch Lei Qingtian, who was currently Undergoing Tribulation, was the first, but he would certainly not be the last!

At this moment, high above in the firmament, the Wind and Fire Tribulation that had originally shrouded the entire Wutian Prefecture...

...had shrunk drastically, with only a radius of over a hundred thousand li of the sky still covered.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Patriarch Lei Qingtian's iron fists continued to swing unwaveringly.

With every swing, nearly ten thousand li of gale winds and crimson flames were blasted into nothingness.

At this rate, with at most a dozen more punches, the Wind and Fire Tribulation would end with a whimper!

All the living beings who witnessed this Wind and Fire Tribulation were deeply shocked.

This instance of Undergoing Tribulation was enough to be recorded in the annals of Wutian Prefecture and go down in history.

It was a textbook-style Undergoing Tribulation, simple and brutal.

The Wind and Fire Tribulation had absolutely no power to resist and could only be slowly ground into nothingness!

Every living being had a premonition that from this day forward, their Wutian Prefecture would welcome a new titan.

The Imperial Lei Clan, long defined as a declining Immortal Lineage, would therefore experience a resurgence.

They would become an Immortal Lineage in the true sense, revered by the countless living beings of Wutian Prefecture!

As it neared the end, the expressions of the Imperial Lei Clan members stationed beneath the Mountain Gate became increasingly agitated.

Some members of the Imperial Lei Clan even had hot tears welling up in their eyes, tears streaming down continuously.

They had waited too long; they had waited far too long for this day.

Finally, their Imperial Lei Clan had finally stood back up and appeared once more in the eyes of the world.

In their lifetime, they had actually witnessed the Imperial Lei Clan turn from decline to prosperity.

Being able to see the Family like this, they had no regrets in this life!

"Boom!"

Finally, as Patriarch Lei Qingtian's last punch landed, the gale winds and crimson flames of the Wind and Fire Tribulation were completely obliterated.

High up in the infinite firmament, only the heroic figure of Patriarch Lei Qingtian remained, standing in the air with a look of exhilaration on his face.

The second of the three quasi-emperor tribulations, the Wind and Fire Tribulation, had been successfully overcome!

Seeing this scene, all the living beings observing the Undergoing Tribulation felt a shiver in their hearts.

The Lightning Tribulation and the Wind and Fire Tribulation had both ended; only the final Heart Demon Tribulation remained.

The Heart Demon Tribulation appeared the least conspicuous, yet it was the most dangerous Heavenly Tribulation.

Its terror did not manifest in extreme destructive power or extreme might.

Instead, it manifested deep within the hearts of those Undergoing Tribulation, within their very Dao Heart.

If one could not hold fast to oneself during the Heart Demon Tribulation, the best case was Qi Deviation and suffering severe injuries.

In the worst case, one's Dao Heart would shatter directly, one's cultivation would be completely crippled, and one would die and vanish!

Patriarch Lei Qingtian's face finally revealed a hint of caution.

Although he had been blessed with the Divine Might Infinite Formation, a powerful Formation known as the nemesis of Heart Demons...

...the Heart Demon Tribulation still made him feel a chill just thinking about it.

That was the Heart Demon Tribulation, which required facing the things one was least willing to confront deep within one's heart.

He had many regrets in this life, many things that could not be mended; if he had to rely on himself to overcome the Heart Demon Tribulation...

...he would likely sink deep into the Sea of Heart Demons, unable to extricate himself for eternity.

"Everything depends on the Divine Might Infinite Formation!"

Compared to the caution of the numerous living beings and Patriarch Lei Qingtian, Ye Chen watched until he yawned.

If possible, he wanted this Undergoing Tribulation to pass sooner; it was quite boring.

Once the Undergoing Tribulation ended, those quasi-emperor fellows would likely be unable to restrain themselves.

While the Heavenly Tribulation was currently ongoing, if they were to act, they would inevitably be locked onto by the Heart Demon Tribulation as well.

Those quasi-emperors who cherished their lives would not be so stupid as to attack him at this time.

However, in his view, there was no difference between attacking now or attacking later.

The final outcome would be their demise anyway, so what difference did it make whether they died sooner or later?

It was merely a matter of a snap of the fingers!

Finally, amidst everyone's anticipation, patches of pitch-black mist began to emerge in the firmament.

These black mists were different from the tribulation clouds; they were even more eerie and indescribable.

It was as if they were the most evil things in the world; merely looking at them made one feel restless and agitated.

These black mists were none other than Heart Demon power, an important component that constituted the Heart Demon Tribulation.

The pitch-black mist, just like during the Lightning Tribulation and the Wind and Fire Tribulation, spread rapidly the moment it appeared.

Before long, the firmament above Wutian Prefecture was shrouded in the pitch-black mist, plunging into night.

All the living beings of Wutian Prefecture subconsciously looked up at the black mist, their eyes filled with madness.

Deep within their hearts, endless frantic emotions, murderous emotions, irritable emotions, and all sorts of negative emotions surged up together.

The living beings, who were already in a terrible mood, could not control themselves and began to lash out at their surroundings.

From this, one could see the power and terror of the Heart Demon Tribulation.

It had not even truly descended yet, and merely by appearing high up in the firmament, it had already affected the entire Wutian Prefecture.

Yet the living beings of Wutian Prefecture were completely unaware of this, having fallen under the influence of the Heart Demon Tribulation without even realizing it!

Patriarch Lei Qingtian cast aside all distracting thoughts in his heart, sat cross-legged in the firmament, and slowly closed his eyes.

The Heart Demon Tribulation did not need to be resisted with brute force, nor did it need to be blocked with Divine Soul power.

Only by facing the fear in one's heart and confronting the regrets deep within one's heart could one overcome the Heart Demon Tribulation.

Facing the Heart Demon Tribulation, one could only defeat it head-on; utilizing other means would not allow one to overcome it!

Just as Patriarch Lei Qingtian had sat down cross-legged, the black mist shrouding the entire Wutian Prefecture trembled slightly.

The next instant, all the black mist, like a torrent flowing in reverse, condensed into a canopy in the firmament.

All the black mist poured into Patriarch Lei Qingtian's glabella, causing wisps of black mist to appear on the surface of his body.

However, the moment these black mists flashed into existence, they were directly purified by the brilliant golden light shrouding his body.

Not only that, but the outline of a Formation suddenly appeared around his body.

Endless holiness, endless clarity, and extreme positive energy gathered within the Formation.

It formed an extremely sharp contrast with the Heart Demon power that was continuously pouring into his glabella.

This was... the Divine Might Infinite Formation!
