Chapter 1251: You're not playing anymore halfway through?

Why make it so complicated? Just have one person go up and block it—then it's done.

Huh???

As soon as this Stone Tribe elder finished speaking, the other elders who had been busy preparing all froze—this method...... is wonderful.

Especially Qi Xiong, Hong Zun and others who knew Ye Zhangqing's character immediately broke into delighted smiles.

As for Ye Zhangqing, he dislikes owing people favors; whenever he does, he will try every way to repay them.

As for how he repays, naturally it's by treating them to a meal.

Calculating the time, it's been seven months since he last had a special meal; after secluding himself at Yun Xiantai and eating that meal, everyone has been eating just communal pot food.

Isn't this opportunity right here? A mere heavenly tribulation in exchange for a special meal—this isn't a loss, it's pure profit.

"Seniors, there's no need for that—I still have confidence in facing the Great Saint heavenly tribulation, there's no need.................."

When Ye Zhangqing opened his mouth to refuse, how could Qi Xiong and Hong Zun give him that chance? This damn thing is the ticket to a special meal—how could we let it run away?

So, without letting Ye Zhangqing finish his sentence, Qi Xiong interrupted.

"Zhangqing, don't be careless—throughout history, haven't few people died under heavenly tribulation?"

"Yeah, Zhangqing, relax and find a place to lie down—we'll handle this heavenly tribulation."

Qi Xiong and Hong Zun spoke one after another; hearing this, the other elders present also chimed in agreement.

"Yeah yeah, Zhangqing kid, just rest easy—we're here."

"A mere heavenly tribulation is nothing to fear, Zhangqing kid—just lie still and you'll be fine."

Looking at the elders' demeanor, it was clear they wanted to carry him aloft; all he needed to do was lie still.

But I really am confident, and with my strength, this Great Saint heavenly tribulation might not even be able to hurt me.

I was about to say more, but an Ancient Tribe elder actually brought out a recliner.

Ye Zhangqing's recliner is all the rage now—nothing else, it's comfortable to lie on and easy to carry.

When you want to lie down somewhere, just take it out and set it down; when you're leaving, you casually toss it into your Space Ring.

"Zhangqing kid, come, lie here—the scenery is nice."

Huh???

Seeing that Ancient Tribe elder produce a recliner, Ye Zhangqing lay down in a daze, his head buzzing.

No, damn it, I'm here to undergo the heavenly tribulation—what does the scenery have to do with it? You think I'm out sightseeing?

As Ye Zhangqing lay ready, the heavenly tribulation gathering in the sky was more or less prepared.

Seeing this, the elders not only had no hesitation, they were even eager to give it a try.

After Qi Xiong and the others, the elders also gradually realized—this isn't a good opportunity to have a meal?

Immediately, the Stone Tribe elder who first suggested this stepped forward without hesitation.

"Seniors, let me take the lead in this auspicious start."

Saying that, the Stone Tribe elder immediately flew up above Ye Zhangqing's head, and suddenly the originally Great Saint–level heavenly tribulation surged in power, instantly reaching Emperor Level.

Then a thick lightning dragon came crashing down from the heavens; seeing this, the Stone Tribe elder did not retreat but advanced, actively moving to meet it.

"A mere bolt of heavenly thunder dares to hurt my young friend Zhangqing—break it!"

He directly clashed with it; the elder smashed the heavenly thunder with a punch, although his arm was split open, blood flowing nonstop, but it's just a minor injury, completely harmless.

After the Stone Tribe elder blocked the first heavenly thunder, the heavenly tribulation in the sky reverted to Great Saint Realm level.

Perhaps even the Heavenly Dao felt it was about time for the main act to take the stage.

But just as the heavenly tribulation's pressure weakened, another elder stepped up.

"My turn."

The heavenly tribulation sensed another Great Emperor Realm cultivator arriving, instantly boosting its power, and a lightning dragon descended once more from the heavens.

This elder, too, was utterly fearless, charging head‑on and smashing the heavenly thunder to pieces with a direct blow.

Thereafter, the heavenly tribulation above Ye Zhangqing's head flickered between Great Saint Realm and Emperor Level, its might constantly shifting.

Yet from start to finish, not a single Great Saint Realm–level lightning strike fell; they were all Emperor Level.

And Ye Zhangqing, sitting in his recliner, was completely unaffected.

The elders deliberately shielded his position, not even bothering to dodge—just meeting the blows head‑on.

Even if they got a few small wounds, it didn't matter—just a couple of pills would fix it.

Later on, it seems even the Heavenly Dao was a bit bewildered.

Isn't this supposed to be a Great Saint Realm heavenly tribulation? How come it's all Emperor Level strikes? Where's the person undergoing the tribulation?

Dozens of lightning strikes have fallen, yet damn it, we still don't know who is supposed to be undergoing the tribulation—it's absurd.

Damn it, who exactly is undergoing the tribulation here?

Having nurtured so many heavenly tribulations, the Heavenly Dao has never encountered this situation before and now doesn't know what to do.

Finally, he simply said, "Screw this, I'm leaving—okay?"

The heavenly tribulation, only halfway through, dispersed outright; the tribulation clouds in the sky vanished in an instant, leaving nothing behind.

But regarding that, the remaining elders were dumbfounded.

"Damn it, I haven't even gone up yet."

"Don't leave—hurry back and continue the tribulation."

"Heavenly Dao, what the hell are you doing—running off in the middle of the tribulation?"

"Are you even still capable?"

The more than ten elders who still hadn't taken the field were truly panicked, seeing everyone around them withstand the heavenly tribulation while they themselves hadn't gotten a turn.

Damn, what are we supposed to do? This is a rare chance to eat, and it's a special meal to boot.

Don't think that just because all these tribal elders are Great Emperor Realm cultivators, many of them have actually eaten a special meal.

Being able to eat a bite of the big pot meal is already not bad, but even this we have to take turns, and rotate sitting in charge of the United Hall with the other Great Emperor ancestors of the clan.

Right now the food is already brought to our mouths; we only need to go up and withstand a bolt of Heavenly Thunder to be able to eat the meal. Heavenly Dao, you damn well aren't playing at this time?

What, you're flipping the table, right?

It's a pity, but facing the roars of these more than ten ancestors, Heavenly Dao completely paid no attention.

I guess if we could communicate, Heavenly Dao would probably say, "You're crazy."

I, damn it, am undergoing the Term: Great Saint Heavenly Tribulation, but you guys have forced it to become the Term: Great Emperor Heavenly Tribulation.

Besides, this kid's body is filled with the most Merit Power and Luck Power; I still can't kill him with a lightning strike, can I?

Actually, Ye Zhangqing's safety doesn't need to be worried about at all; at most he'll just suffer some injuries.

Over the past year, just look among the Human Race who have undergone Heavenly Tribulation—who has been killed by the tribulation lightning? At most they only suffer heavy injuries.

This is the wonder of Merit Power.

Merit Power is for those who have contributed to the Haotu Shijie; Heavenly Dao could possibly kill you? Damn, these are all heroes.

So, another benefit of the Merit Power on the Human Race is that they don't really fear the Heavenly Tribulation.

Unless you're someone who has taken pills all the way up, a complete paper tiger coming to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation, otherwise there's basically no mortal danger.

But such a person couldn't possibly cultivate to the Saint Realm, so you've nothing to fear.
