Chapter 1200

"This... this is at least a Golden Immortal Tribulation, but we don't have anyone at the perfection of the Heavenly Immortal Realm about to step into the Golden Immortal Realm here, how can this be?" Ji Wu Yun said in astonishment, looking up at the sky, feeling a chill in his heart.

Even as a dignified mid-stage Heavenly Immortal Realm expert, only one small realm away from the Golden Immortal Realm, he felt extremely palpitated facing such Heavenly Might.

Everyone couldn't help but take a few steps back, wanting to stay as far away as possible from the area locked by the lightning tribulation, but no matter how far they retreated, that feeling of being pressed to the point of near-suffocation never dissipated.

Rumble!

Another deafening thunderclap roared, and everyone's hearts jumped violently, looking at each other in extreme unease.

Even some Golden Immortal Realm guardians looked solemn and wary.

Rumble—!

Another thunderclap exploded, its momentum growing even stronger.

However, throughout the entire process, there was only the sound of thunder, but no lightning was seen.

This made everyone feel a sense of strangeness.

"Could it be that someone outside is undergoing a tribulation? And it just happens to be right above us?" someone speculated.

"That must be it, otherwise it couldn't be like this!" Ji Wu Yun nodded, but he was also very puzzled inside.

This level of Golden Immortal Tribulation could not be summoned by an ordinary Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivator; the person undergoing the tribulation should be a prodigy. But looking across the entire Tianzhou, there didn't seem to be any news of any prodigy preparing to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm!

At the same time, inside the divine spark space.

Xu Que was still sitting cross-legged on the ground, his whole body flashing with golden light, incomparably blazing.

Thick bolts of golden lightning were bombarding him crazily!

The Earth Immortal Tribulation had arrived!

However, Xu Que remained motionless, too lazy to even defend himself. He let the lightning tribulation bombard his body, his face full of enjoyment, and the slight smile on the corner of his mouth was incomparably terrifying.

A wave of emotional fluctuation suddenly arose in the divine spark space. Clearly, the divine spark had been frightened. Even as a residual divine spark of a deity, possessing intelligence and some memories, it felt shocked and terrified by Xu Que's way of undergoing the tribulation.

Is this a human?

Is this guy actually a god?

Facing an ancient cataclysm, this guy could still sit on the ground and cultivate, completely unbothered? To what extent must his physical body be strong?

Wait, hold on, that's not right!

Suddenly, in the divine spark space, the intelligent divine spark felt an urge to vomit blood.

It remembered the oath Xu Que had just made: if he violated it, he would willingly suffer the Purple Cloud Lightning Tribulation and an ancient cataclysm, being struck by lightning!

But the problem was, looking at how this guy was undergoing the tribulation now, was that oath still useful?

"Eh, what's going on? Why did the Immortal Yuan power stop? Don't stop! Undergoing the tribulation won't affect my cultivation. Hurry up, continue!" Xu Que suddenly opened his eyes and shouted.

He had been cultivating quite happily just a moment ago, but unexpectedly, this divine spark suddenly cut off the Immortal Yuan power, forcing Xu Que to interrupt his cultivation state.

Subsequently, the divine spark conveyed its meaning: it required Xu Que to make another oath, one that couldn't be related to the lightning tribulation!

Xu Que immediately became unhappy: "Damn, what do you mean? Do you not trust me, Xu Que? What? You still have the nerve to say that?"

Boom!

Another lightning tribulation descended, smashing fiercely onto Xu Que. Xu Que was completely submerged in a sea of golden light and lightning, yet he remained unscathed.

This was not only because he was used to the ancient cataclysm, but more so because he relied on the strength of his physical body. The Small Success Saint Body was not just a name; even the Small Success Hegemon Body from before would have been enough to deal with this kind of tribulation, let alone a higher-level Saint Body!

And this scene made the divine spark even more certain that its choice was correct.

If Xu Que didn't re-swear, it would firmly refuse to compromise. After all, the consumption of Immortal Yuan power had a huge impact on it. If Xu Que ended up playing dirty, it would truly be helpless and be destroyed!

"Sigh, forget it. As the saying goes, we don't get to know each other without fighting. Considering your sincerity, I'll make another oath!"

Finally, Xu Que chose to concede.

His expression tightened, he raised his hand to the sky again, and shouted: "I, Xu Que, hereby swear: if you can let me break through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm and bestow a legacy upon me, I will never commit an offense again. If I violate this, let me never be able to cultivate the Great Success Hegemon Body!"

After finishing, Xu Que looked at a corner in front of him, his face gloomy: "Is this okay now? You should be able to see that my physical body is extraordinary, and I've also cultivated the Nine Netherworld King of Hell Slash. In fact, I've obtained the legacy of the Pluto and possess a Hegemon Body. Besides, I have no deep hatred for you, so there's no need to wipe you out. So, you should be able to rest assured with this oath, right?"

The divine spark's consciousness hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't respond. However, the majestic Immortal Yuan that surged from all directions again was enough to prove that it accepted Xu Que's oath.

For a cultivator to swear by their cultivation realm is the most convincing oath. Whether it's the physical body realm or the cultivation realm, both are extremely important to a cultivator!

Just like Yi Zhong of the Shennong Clan before, who swore by his cultivation realm to kill Xu Que, which was shocking. If he couldn't kill him, the consequences he would suffer would be extremely severe, being stuck at a bottleneck with no progress for the rest of his life.

This was also the reason why, after Xu Que killed him, those guardians chose to retreat. After all, a Heavenly Immortal Realm prodigy who could no longer progress was no different from a cripple to the Shennong Clan!

Therefore, now that Xu Que swore by his physical body realm, the divine spark believed him without any doubt.

But no matter how intelligent it was, it never expected that this guy Xu Que wasn't a Hegemon Body at all, but had long since ascended to a Saint Body!

Never be able to cultivate the Great Success Hegemon Body in this life?

Heh, cultivate my ass!

"Boom!"

Feeling the vast Immortal Yuan power surging into his body again, a smile appeared on the corner of Xu Que's mouth once more.

While absorbing the Immortal Yuan, his physical body also continuously absorbed the lightning power of the ancient cataclysm.

This was an ability he had possessed a long time ago, and he had even derived the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Root from it. It was just that his dantian had been damaged last time, and with the growth of the Chaos Green Lotus, all his lightning power had been sucked dry. Now was the time to replenish his stock, so how could Xu Que waste it!

Time passed bit by bit.

One day...

Two days...

Three days...

Ten days had passed. Most of the people waiting outside had left. Except for Er Gouzi, Duan Jiude, and Liu Jingning, who were his own people, the only ones left were the Shadow Floating Pagoda group led by Ji Wu Yun, as well as Bai Cailing and the women of Yaochi waiting outside.

For ten full days, they became more anxious the longer they waited. If it weren't for the fact that they could see Xu Que's figure still sitting inside, they would have probably assumed Xu Que was dead.

But inside the divine spark space, it was clearly even more anxious than the people outside.

That intelligent divine spark was almost driven mad.

It had desperately released the Immortal Yuan power it had accumulated over many years. Even for a prodigy from a major power, under these circumstances, ten days would have been enough to step from the peak of the Human Immortal Realm into the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

But Xu Que? Except for breaking through to the early stage of the Earth Immortal Realm in the first three hours, for these ten full days, there had been no movement at all, and his realm remained at the early stage of the Earth Immortal Realm, with no sign of breaking through.

The divine spark was almost on the verge of tears. Most of the Immortal Yuan power it had accumulated over many years had been consumed. Looking at this trend, it was hard to say if Xu Que could even break through to the mid-stage of the Earth Immortal Realm after exhausting all its Immortal Yuan.

After all, up to now, Xu Que's body was like a bottomless pit that couldn't be filled, crazily absorbing Immortal Yuan, making people feel that saturation was still very far away!

"Oh yo!"

Finally, Xu Que, who had been quiet for ten days, suddenly stretched and exited his cultivation state.

There was clearly a sense of astonishment in the divine spark space, followed by a burst of wild joy, guessing that Xu Que was finally about to break through and was making preparations!

Xu Que sensed this emotion, his face immediately darkened. He put one hand on his waist, pointed at the corner in front with the other, and scolded: "Joy, joy, what are you so happy about? You still have the face to be happy? It's been ten damn days, and I'm still at least two-thirds short of the Immortal Yuan needed to break through. Can you be a bit more capable? Squeeze out more Immortal Yuan!"
