Chapter 432: Peak Immortal Emperor, Fight Again

(Previous chapter, supplement, understand? (=ＴェＴ=) being scolded)

Time flew by, and evening soon arrived.

The afterglow of the setting sun scattered over the lofty trial tower; at a glance, the tower's body seemed to be draped in a layer of dark gold.

Outside the trial tower, voices buzzed; the spectators, disciples, had not yet dispersed, and their numbers had grown even larger.

"999th floor! 999th floor! He really did it!"

"My goodness, this is too unbelievable! On his first attempt at the trial, he reached the nine hundred ninety‑ninth floor—what a badass!"

"I'm convinced, truly convinced, Senior Brother Ye is just too awesome!"

Many disciples exclaimed in shock.

The lights on the 999th floor of the trial tower lit up.

On the trial ranking list, the most prominent name read: Trial Ranking List First: Ye Jie, nine hundred ninety‑ninth floor.

Everyone was saying that Ye Jie was only one floor away from clearing the entire trial and becoming the first person to conquer the trial tower.

"He went up again! He went up again!"

"The thousandth floor! Senior Brother Ye has entered the thousandth floor!"

Just then, a cry of astonishment rang out from the crowd.

Among the disciples in the trial tower, the topmost floor.

After a blinding white light flashed past, Ye Jie slowly opened his eyes.

Upon seeing his surroundings, his brain short‑circuited for a few breaths.

"How could I be here? I didn't just enter the top floor of the trial tower?"

Above him was a blue sky, with vast patches of colorful clouds.

The surrounding scenery was also exquisite, with various rare herbs and immortal flowers and trees vying to grow.

Ahead lay a bottomless abyss of tens of thousands of feet, from which unknown immortal birds occasionally flew out.

"Fate Dao Cliff? How did I end up here again?"

Ye Jie spoke doubtfully.

Fate Dao Cliff was precisely where he underwent his tribulation in his previous life—the very place where he fell.

"Wait! My cultivation!"

At that moment Ye Jie sensed the immense energy stored within his body; a mere thought set his terrifying cultivation into motion.

The Immortal Emperor's exclusive chaos power instantly swept across heaven and earth, and his terrifying divine sense enveloped all three upper dao realms.

At that moment he was the center of heaven and earth; all living beings and every great Dao of the immortal realm lay beneath his feet.

Immortal Emperor at the peak!

"Familiar power—my power has returned!"

Ye Jie stood firm in the void, boundless chaos power flowing through his body; behind him, endless immortal clouds gathered into an emperor's throne, and the terrifying aura made the very heavens tremble.

"Is this the illusion of the thousandth floor of the trial tower? It's astonishingly real!"

"If that's the case, then I shall fight once more—this time, as the Seven Tribulations Immortal Emperor, I will surely win!"

"Seven Tribulations Immortal Sword!"

Ye Jie roared, and the complete Seven Tribulations Sword shot forth.

At this moment the Seven Tribulations Immortal Sword had fully returned to its peak state; each of the seven sword segments emanated terrifying sword‑dao power, and the might of an Immortal Emperor‑tier immortal sword was beyond doubt.

Everything ready, he began the tribulation just as before.

He gathered his entire body's chaos power to smash that invisible barrier; the barrier shattered easily, but the hardest part was surviving the terrifying lightning tribulation.

Only by passing it could the advancement be deemed successful.

Boom—rumble—rumble!

As Ye Jie began, endless black tribulation clouds instantly formed in the heavens, and the terrifying thunder rumbled loudly.

At the same time.

The Heavenly Universe Great World, the Upper Heavy Heaven, the Shang San Yu.

Countless slumbering mighty beings instantly opened their eyes.

"That's his aura! How is this possible? Wasn't he supposed to have perished in the Fallen Immortal Dao Tribulation?"

"Impossible! The Fallen Immortal Dao Tribulation—it has reappeared!"

"Could it be that he used his great power to reshape spacetime? Or perhaps my true self is merely dreaming?"

"Wu Cao! You old immortal, what are you hitting this old man for? If you want to know whether you're dreaming, go hit yourself!"

Meanwhile, at the border of the Shang San Yu and the Nine Heavens Dao Realm.

Clad in a rain‑coat, with a blade of grass between his lips, the old man lay lazily in the grass and opened his sleepy eyes.

"Which brat is undergoing tribulation? He's disturbed my sleep."

"Hmm? This tribulation isn't ordinary—another brat is about to break out of this realm."

"Something's off—twelve out of ten feels wrong; this tribulation seems to have formed from a strange energy."

The old man rose, shook off his rain‑coat, and muttered to himself.

"Never mind, never mind; I'm used to wandering free, so I won't look into it."

"I've roamed the Heavenly Universe Great World to its end; onward to the next world."

Having said that, the old man flickered and vanished from the spot.

What Ye Jie didn't know was that this trial‑tribulation had actually occurred in the Shang San Yu, causing a huge commotion.

Of course he knew, but there was nothing he could do—he was presently busy fighting the heavenly tribulation.

Nine Heavens Dao Realm, Fate Dao Cliff.

Above the firmament, amidst the looming black tribulation sea, a figure wielding an immortal sword was fiercely fighting the terrifying heavenly tribulation.

Wave after wave of terrifying Fallen Immortal Dao Tribulations relentlessly slashed toward that figure.

Know that this is forbidden heavenly tribulation lightning; its aura alone could shake to death an Immortal Venerable giant—one can imagine how terrifying it is.

But each bolt of heavenly tribulation was blocked by that figure.

"Seven Tribulations Sword Secret!"

Ye Jie's gaze icy, the Seven Tribulations Immortal Sword in his hand burst forth with brilliant seven-colored immortal light, and his mighty sword qi pierced the tribulation clouds above.

Boom!

With that strike, half of the firmament's tribulation clouds were pierced, and the obscured sunlight shone upon the earth again.

However, before Ye Jie could catch his breath, the looming black tribulation clouds quickly gathered again, and this time their power was even greater.

Boom—

A Fallen Immortal Dao Tribulation thicker than his whole body came crashing down!

Seeing this, Ye Jie's heart clenched tightly.

The scene from his past life instantly reappeared in vivid detail.

In his past life, at this very moment his Seven Tribulations Sword had blocked the heavenly tribulation for him, only to be……

"Huh? No! Don't!"

Just as that thick and long heavenly tribulation was about to strike, Ye Jie horrifiedly discovered that the Seven Tribulations Sword in his hand was no longer under his control.

The Seven Tribulations Immortal Sword flew out of his hand and straight toward that heavenly tribulation.

Boom!

At the instant they made contact, the heavenly tribulation vanished in a flash, and the Seven Tribulations Immortal Sword was blasted apart, splitting into two.

One became a Five Tribulations Body, the other a Two Tribulations Body; they fell downward and disappeared at the horizon.

At that moment, heaven and earth fell silent.

"No!"

"Hahaha!"

Ye Jie's expression somehow shifted from despair in an instant.

"The illusion of one thousand layers is nothing more than this."

"You think you can defeat me by attacking my past pain? You greatly underestimate me."

"My state of mind is already unshakable!"

"Seven Tribulations Sword!"

At Ye Jie's command, the complete Seven Tribulations Sword appeared in his hand.

"I've played with you long enough; it's time to end you."

"Seven Tribulations World-Extermination!"

Ye Jie unleashed his ultimate, endless chaotic power surging toward the Seven Tribulations Immortal Sword, and without hesitation he swung the sword to strike.

A terrifying sword qi instantly tore through the firmament!
