The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 716: Chapter 716: Intern Celestial, Wielding Thunder Punishment, Wrath of the Celestial Clan
 

“Sect Master Ye, you are a Thunder Palace Celestial, yet you can’t even reduce the power of the Heavenly Tribulation?” the Rhinoceros Heavenly Emperor asked with widened eyes, clearly astonished.

Everyone else also turned their gaze toward Ye Feng, equally curious.

Ye Feng felt helpless.

“My fellow Daoists think too highly of me. Although I am a Celestial, currently I can only increase the intensity of the Thunder Punishment.”

“Moreover, the initial strength of the Thunder Punishment is now based on the cultivator’s own talents and combat power.”

“Those with high talent and combat power will naturally face a Heavenly Tribulation that is stronger than what cultivators of the same level encounter.”

“As long as everyone makes ample preparations, you can safely pass through the Heavenly Tribulation without the danger of being struck dead.”

Ye Feng offered an explanation.

“There’s another point, I can adjust the time intervals between each wave of the Heavenly Tribulation, up to a hundredfold extension is possible.”

He thought of something and quickly added it.

“That’s great!”

Upon hearing this, everyone laughed.

During the tribulation, one wave of the Heavenly Tribulation follows another. If they could extend the interval by a hundredfold, they could seize the opportunity to recover from their injuries, greatly increasing their chances of successfully overcoming the tribulation.

After chatting with Ye Feng for a while, everyone dispersed.

In front of the Thunder Palace.

Ye Feng stood suspended in the air, looking at the surrounding Tribulation Clouds, where he could see many young figures undergoing their tribulations.

Mo Ying, Huo Yunjie, Shi Lei…

They were all struggling fiercely.

“The power of the Heavenly Tribulation grows with each wave, but they are all true prodigies; it should not be a problem for them to withstand it,” Ye Feng was not worried.

He turned his head and looked at the Thunder Palace.

It stood quietly upon the Sky Island, surrounded by countless thunderclouds that obscured the view.

The outsiders could only see a phantom-like grand palace, unable to discern what lay within.

“Spirit Consolidating Ancestral Tree, watch over the Thunder Palace and prevent any irrelevant people from approaching,” Ye Feng instructed.

“Yes,” the Spirit Consolidating Ancestral Tree promptly raised a protective shield.

After returning to the Thunder Palace, Ye Feng looked at the Thunder Pool, sensing the Heavenly Tribulations in not only the Shenzhou Continent but also the Boundless Seas.

With a thought.

He could condense an apparition in any of the phantom-like Heavenly Tribulations, appearing in the form of a Celestial to control the tribulation.

If necessary, he could also make a True Body Descent.

“With the Thunder Palace, under particular circumstances, I can instantly reach any place in the Shenzhou Continent and the Boundless Seas,” Ye Feng said.

After understanding how to use the Thunder Palace, he sat cross-legged within it, mentally immersing himself and sensing the Heavenly Tribulations in all directions.

Above a desolate mountain.

Crack!

Bolts of thunder struck down, smashing an old man with white hair and beard to the ground, his body charred, almost losing his life and his Dao.

“Only the last wave of the Heavenly Tribulation is left.”

“However, I have prepared for most of my life, forged countless Spiritual Artifacts for overcoming the tribulation, and now they’ve all been destroyed. I definitely cannot withstand the final wave of the Heavenly Tribulation!”

The old man clutched the earth tightly, tears welling up in his eyes, filled with unwillingness.

He too desired to reach the Divine Origin Realm!

Only thus could he lead his Sect to prosperity and hold the power to slay even more Crimson Moon Demons!

But the Heavenly Tribulation was too strong!

“Elder Ancestor!”

Tens of miles away, hundreds of cultivators stood on the desolate mountain, looking at the Sect’s Elder Ancestor struck down by the tribulation, weeping inconsolably, believing he wouldn’t survive.

But, just at that moment.

From the phantom-like Thunder Palace in the sky, a figure formed from countless bolts of lightning slowly emerged.

He looked indifferent and aloof.

As Ye Feng’s Celestial form appeared, the surrounding Heavenly Tribulation seemed to behave like subjects before an emperor, showing signs of submission.

“What is that?”

The bystanders shuddered at the sight of the Celestial figure.

A figure that even the Heavenly Tribulation feared – could this person be the deity who commands the thunder?

They began to speculate wildly.

Crash!

Just when everyone had lost all hope, the divine figure of the Celestial slowly waved his hand, and the gathering speed of the final wave of the Heavenly Tribulation greatly slowed down. After doing this, the figure of the Celestial slowly dissolved.

At first, nobody understood why.

But soon, the old man who was undergoing the tribulation rejoiced greatly, “This is wonderful, the gathering speed of the Heavenly Tribulation has decreased significantly. If I take this opportunity to heal my injuries, I still have a chance to fight!”

“Everyone, quickly bring the healing medicine to the elder!”

Hearing this, the cultivators of that sect hurriedly took out all the healing medicine from the sect’s storage and delivered them at the fastest speed to the elder for his use.

Two hours later.

The last wave of the Heavenly Tribulation was ready.

With the massive aid of the medicinal power, the elder had healed ninety percent of his injuries, his eyes glittering with a sharp light.

“Heaven has not forsaken me!”

He charged forward, casting hundreds of shields using all his life’s cultivation to withstand the Heavenly Tribulation. In the end, even though he was charred and tattered all over, he managed to hold on.

“Hahaha!”

“I’ve reached the Divine Origin Realm!”

Overwhelmed with joy, the elder wept, while the disciples under his sect also celebrated ecstatically on the spot.

At that moment.

The elder sensed something and flew towards the ethereal Thunder Palace in the sky. Following the feeling in his heart, he sat cross-legged in the middle of the Thunder Pool, and immediately, a pure force surged forth, aiding in his healing and the consolidation of his cultivation level.

“This is wonderful!”

Excited, the elder looked up and only then noticed the Merit List on the wall. Seeing the names and the descriptions beneath them, he understood everything.

“So, that figure just now was Heavenly Saint Ye Feng!”

“It was he who slowed down the gathering speed of the Heavenly Tribulation, and who saved my life!”

“I must repay this kindness!”

The elder was deeply moved.

His location was too remote, without a large Teleportation Array or Open Sky Eye, not knowing much about the outside world, nor who “Misty Sect’s Sect Master Ye Feng” was.

But after today, he firmly remembered this name, treating him as his reborn parent, praying day and night.

A quarter of an hour later.

The ethereal Thunder Palace disappeared.

The elder recovered to his peak condition and his cultivation level was solidly consolidated, making him a true, well-founded Great Power of the Divine Origin Realm.

Very soon.

The name of Ye Feng spread in the vicinity.

Similar scenes occurred frequently throughout the Shenzhou Continent.

All those who were successful in their tribulation entered the illusory Thunder Palace. While consolidating their cultivation level and healing their injuries with the aid of the Thunder Pool, they would also read the Merit List, engraving Ye Feng’s name deeply into their memories.

Suddenly, Prestige Points and Power of Faith surged wildly!

Especially the Power of Faith, which skyrocketed at an insane pace, astonishing even Ye Feng who was in the middle of the Thunder Palace.

“In just a single day, my Power of Faith has actually strengthened to the level of the seventh layer of the Void Break Realm! At this rate, the Power of Faith will soon reach the Heavenly Emperor Level.”

Ye Feng was overjoyed.

For him, the greatest benefit of controlling the Thunder Palace was not the command over the Thunder Punishment, but the outburst of the Power of Faith!

Once the Power of Faith reached the Heavenly Emperor Level, he would be able to deduce the Road to Sainthood that was most suitable for him.

…

Suspended Mountain.

Within a grand and imposing palace.

The figure shrouded in mist slammed the armrest in anger and exclaimed, “The Heavenly Tribulation of the Shenzhou Continent has appeared again—are you sure?”

“Reporting to Mist Saint, this matter is absolutely true!”

“According to reports from the Reincarnators, someone who successfully crossed the tribulation entered a secondary Heavenly Dao Supreme Treasure called ‘Thunder Palace’ and saw a Merit List.”

“And this is the text from the list.”

The powerful individuals of the Celestial Clan presented the copied Merit List with trembling hands.

The Mist Saint of the Celestial Clan glanced at the list and was furious beyond measure.

“Ye Feng… I remember this name now. Today, this saint will make sure you die!”

The eyes of the Celestial Clan Mist Saint turned cold and the copied Merit List instantly turned into dust.

He quickly stood up and moved towards the distance.

Misty Sect.

Ye Feng was deducing within the Thunder Palace.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, feeling an inexplicable palpitation.
