Chapter 673: Shang Hongxue Undergoes Tribulation

Boom—

Heavenly thunder rolled, dark clouds pressed down.

The terrifying heavenly tribulation was about to descend; this commotion drew the attention of everyone on Longshe Mountain.

Shang Hongchen raised her head, brows furrowed; after finally getting a moment's rest, she felt she was going mad. Trapped inside the formation, she could neither leave nor return to Longshe Mountain, as if abandoned—no matter how she shouted or acted, no one paid her any heed.

Her sister had forgotten her, her younger brother Shang Yue didn't see her as a sister, their master was even less likely to come rescue her, and Chen Chuyang seemed to be taking revenge—this revenge was truly deadly. Shang Hongchen admitted that this move of Chen Chuyang's was indeed enough to break her.

Heavenly tribulation? Who's forming a Golden Core?

Who on Longshe Mountain hasn't formed a Golden Core yet? It couldn't be Chen Chuyang forming a Golden Core, could it?

Soon she dismissed the idea; Chen Chuyang's strength had already achieved Golden Core success, so it couldn't be him—then who could it be?

Chen Qinger? She hasn't taken this step yet, though she's close.

It wasn't Chen Qinger; she remembered seeing her, and she hadn't taken that step. Forming a Golden Core looks easy, but in reality it's not easy at all.

For a genius, this step isn't hard; for an ordinary person, sorry, it's as hard as climbing to heaven.

After thinking it over and looking at the heavenly tribulation in the sky, it wasn't a monster's tribulation but a human's; monster and human tribulations differ, and the difference is obvious at a glance.

After considering the humans on Longshe Mountain, no one else could form a Golden Core, and she thought of one possible person.

Could it be Shang Hongxue?

Shang Hongchen asked and answered herself: 'Impossible, right? Even if that little Hongxue's talent is heaven‑defying, it couldn't be this terrifying, could it?'

It couldn't be her—how could Shang Hongxue form a Golden Core so quickly? How long has it been? How long has she trained? I don't believe it.

How many years has my sister trained at most? Only a few years, and she's already forming a Golden Core?

Isn't this just slapping her in the face hard?

Shang Hongchen would rather believe Chen Qinger had formed a Golden Core, or someone else, than believe her own sister had— it's simply too hard to believe.

No way, impossible.

She denied it repeatedly, yet Shang Hongchen kept her eyes on the heavenly tribulation.

The spreading heavenly tribulation was terribly frightening; its pressure and terrifying lightning made one dare not look directly.

On the mountain.

The working Tianlian Zhenren raised his head, staring at the dark clouds and rumbling lightning in the sky.

The heavenly tribulation hadn't descended yet, but it was already brewing.

Heavenly tribulation? Someone's about to undergo tribulation? A Golden Core tribulation—this is no weak thing.

From the pressure of the heavenly tribulation one could see this tribulation was no ordinary affair; Tianlian Zhenren finally fixed his gaze on Shang Hongxue on the mountain and exclaimed, 'Is Shang Hongxue forming a Golden Core?'

This woman's heavenly tribulation—no, the tribulation is still brewing.

This tribulation—hiss.

The heavenly tribulation above changed again; its frightening light condensed, and the range doubled.

It exceeded the tribulation of a Golden Core; as she knew, even the tribulations that geniuses had survived weren't this strong, and even when she herself had formed a Golden Core, it had never been this terrifying.

Shang Hongxue's tribulation is no simple matter; I don't know if she can get through it.

Chen Chuyang, what are you going to do?

Shang Yue, still on the mountain, blinked and stared at the heavenly tribulation in the sky, blinking.

A grand scene, this really is a grand scene.

He'd never seen anyone else undergo tribulation, but he knew a bit about it.

Golden Core tribulation—who's trying to form a Golden Core?

In that direction, is Second Sister going to form a Golden Core?

No, when did Second Sister become so heaven‑defying? She's forming a Golden Core already?

This speed is too fast, right?

Shang Yue felt a bit dazed; training together with his brother‑in‑law, his second sister's training speed was too fast.

It's quite frightening.

The sword‑practicing Chen Qinger stopped her practice and said enviously, 'Second Sister‑in‑law, are you forming a Golden Core already?'

That's utterly unreasonable, right? Could this be what a genius is like?

She lowered her head, looked at her sword, then at herself—she'd been stuck at this step for a long time, unable to take that step.

Forming a Golden Core was within reach, yet she couldn't take that step.

Having obtained the Five Elements Sword Technique, her cultivation advanced, everything inside her advanced with it, and her hope of forming a Golden Core greatly increased.

But she still couldn't reach that realm.

She was always just a little short; unexpectedly, Shang Hongxue got there first.

You should know, Shang Hongxue's cultivation was inferior to hers; before, she had been the one teaching Shang Hongxue cultivation techniques, but in the blink of an eye, Shang Hongxue surpassed her.

Forming a Golden Core even faster than herself—how could Chen Qinger not be shocked?

Comparing people makes people angry to death.

This is the benefit of having found a good husband.

On this point she couldn't help but admit: Shang Hongxue had found a good husband.

She had early on secured Chen Chuyang's cousin; that cousin hadn't even been exposed yet when Shang Hongxue snatched him up—her judgment was truly strong.

She ought to have formed a Golden Core early.

All this is what a sister‑in‑law should have.

Shang Hongxue's inner core had already condensed; all that remained was to undergo the heavenly tribulation.

Chuyang older brother, should I undergo the tribulation on Longshe Mountain?

"Chuyang brother, do I have to undergo tribulation on Longshe Shan?"

Chen Chuyang grabbed her hand and reminded, 'Got it.'

'Good.'

Shang Hongxue embraced Chuyang older brother with both hands; the two vanished from the spot, reappeared, already outside Longshe Cheng.

Entering the deep mountains and wild forests, arriving at the old place of tribulation, Chen Chuyang began to set up the formation.

Heavenly tribulation followed closely.

After Chen Chuyang finished setting up the formation, he instructed, 'The rest is up to you; you must be careful.'

'I know, Chuyang older brother.'

Shang Hongxue was full of confidence, unafraid of the heavenly tribulation above.

She was no longer the little girl she once was, very confident in her own strength.

This is related to the ideas Chen Chuyang constantly instilled in her; this girl is lacking in nothing, the Cultivation body needs heavenly tribulation stimulation, also needs Shang Hongxue to personally face the heavenly tribulation; after passing the tribulation, she is a true Golden Core expert.

At this step, others cannot help her.

Shang Hongxue naturally understood this principle; Chen Chuyang repeatedly warned, when the heavenly tribulation was about to lock onto its target, Chen Chuyang flashed his body, vanished from the spot, stood outside the heavenly tribulation's attack range, arms crossed, silently watching the heavenly tribulation before him.

Breath dispersed, Protector the surroundings.

Some demonic beasts and cultivators that wanted to approach scattered; that aura let them know this place held great danger.

Thus, the surroundings fell silent, no one daring to approach.

Boom—

Heavenly tribulation fell; the first bolt of heavenly tribulation was blocked by the formation, unable to harm Shang Hongxue.

Shang Hongxue was ready; she knew the formation wouldn't last long, it would soon collapse.

Holding a short sword, azure wave flowed over her body.

Her gaze steadfast, the heavenly tribulation fell again.

Second

Third

Formation, shattered with a boom.

Fourth heavenly tribulation bombarded Shang Hongxue's body, blocked by that layer of azure wave.

Azure wave gauze flickered once, light flowed, the heavenly tribulation dissipated.
