Chapter 1069 - 342: Life and Death Tribulation, Kidnapping All Life in the Black Water Star Realm

Now, I realize that perhaps the two are destined to face a tribulation.

Shen Rufeng is the life-and-death tribulation.

Shen Qiao’an is even worse, possibly losing his chance to become a Great Cultivator at the Integration Stage.

"It should be ninety percent!"

Shen Rufeng nodded.

"As long as I can bring Zhang Lingfeng into my tribulation, even if Zhang Lingfeng dies by my hand, the Alliance and Ancient Moon Sect cannot blame the Shen Family. Everyone knows Zhang Lingfeng is part of my tribulation, provided I can successfully approach Zhang Lingfeng and let him willingly step into my tribulation."

"I have thought long and hard."

"Zhang Lingfeng seems very concerned about the life in the Black Water Starfield. If the life-and-death tribulation affects the Black Water Starfield life, I believe Zhang Lingfeng will surely take the challenge."

"No matter what, I have left the laws in the Black Water Starfield before, and as long as I wish, I can use the life-and-death tribulation to destroy the entire Black Water Starfield!"

Shen Rufeng’s eyes gleamed fiercely.

"Second Uncle!"

Shen Qiao’an shook his head.

"I won’t allow you to do this!"

Shen Junsong said angrily.

He didn’t really care about the lives of the Black Water Starfield.

But he clearly understood that Shen Rufeng, as a life born from the Intermediate Starfield, once carrying the life-and-death tribulation and entering a Basic Starfield, even if he could temporarily avoid the limitations of Heavenly Dao laws through tribulation arrival, the life-and-death tribulation he would bear would become exceedingly terrifying, reaching a point of no survival.

It would be equivalent to using his own life to destroy the Black Water Starfield life.

In the eyes of the Shen Family’s powerful individuals, the Black Water Starfield is just a Basic Starfield, and the life mass, adding Zhang Lingfeng, is only 4.60, not worth losing Shen Rufeng for.

"No one can stop me from doing this, let Zhang Lingfeng make his own choice!"

Shen Rufeng’s mind was made up.

No matter what, he must drag Zhang Lingfeng into his tribulation.

He was very clear in his heart that once Zhang Lingfeng became a disciple of Ancient Moon Sect, the Shen Family’s chances to kill Zhang Lingfeng would become very limited.

Moreover, Zhang Lingfeng has already become a Great Cultivator at the Integration Stage. Given time, he might truly cause the Black Water Starfield to transform, turning a Basic Starfield into an Intermediate Starfield, threatening the existence of the Shen Family.

He must eliminate the danger at its root.

Recalling the past, if he had taken even one more step forward, Zhang Lingfeng would not have achieved today’s results.

This time, he must use his own tribulation to thoroughly solve this hidden threat.

"Second Lord!"

The Shen Family’s higher-ups looked troubled.

They also knew that the likelihood of succeeding through the life-and-death tribulation was not seventy percent; Shen Rufeng surely understood this tribulation was nine deaths and one life, so he wanted to do one last thing for the Shen Family — to forever remove Zhang Lingfeng.

The life-and-death tribulation could make Shen Rufeng vanish without a trace, and it could also deprive Zhang Lingfeng of any chance of revival and rebirth. As long as Zhang Lingfeng dared to step into the tribulation, he would be close to death.

Shen Rufeng was genuinely afraid that one day, Zhang Lingfeng would grow to a point where the Shen Family would need to use the World Seed just to eliminate him.

...

Great Imperial City.

At this moment, Zhang Lingfeng still didn’t know that Shen Rufeng had made the craziest decision in history, intending to use his own tribulation and life to bind the entire Black Water Starfield, forcing Zhang Lingfeng to accept the challenge.

If Zhang Lingfeng refused to accept the challenge, Shen Rufeng would bring the tribulation to the Black Water Starfield, perishing together with the Black Water Starfield life.

It can be said that this is a very insidious method, something rarely seen in history.

It also showed how heavy the blow to the Shen Family’s morale was when Shen Qiao’an became what he is now, to the extent that it led Shen Rufeng to make such a crazy decision.

Returning to this place.

Zhang Lingfeng already possesses the strength of a Great Cultivator at the Integration Stage, and his Soul Power has undergone a Fourth Transformation since the day he destroyed Shen Qiao’an’s foundation and escaped right under the noses of Shen Junsong and the others from the Shen Country Star Realm. The Shadow Alliance has since updated his relevant information, many people have realized that Zhang Lingfeng has become a Great Cultivator at the Integration Stage, and his Soul Power has undergone a Fourth Transformation.

However, the Shadow Alliance has not yet learned that Zhang Lingfeng’s physical body has already fused with the entire Black Water Starfield, and they don’t know that his Star Mass has reached 9.21.

Otherwise, Shen Rufeng would be even more determined to carry out his plan and force Zhang Lingfeng to respond.

He knows the hope to succeed in tribulation is very slim, longing to do the last thing for the Shen Family.

"You are really audacious. If it weren’t for Mr. Di and the Alliance backing you up this time, you wouldn’t have passed the Ancient Moon Sect’s hurdle."

Steward Ma rebuked.

Steward Ma had to see Zhang Lingfeng, as he was a figure at the Intermediate Alliance Leader level, and beside him was Qin Tiancang.

When Zhang Lingfeng led all the lives of the Black Water Starfield and slew the Demon Dragon, Qin Tiancang received the summons to return to serve in the Intermediate Starfield and gained Steward Ma’s favor, becoming Steward Ma’s follower.

One must know that Steward Ma is a manifestation of Mahayana Infinite, incredibly powerful, not weaker than Di Yaozong.

Though Qin Tiancang’s Power of the Stars may be higher than Zhang Lingfeng’s, no matter how powerful, he is just a Great Cultivator at the Integration Stage. To become a follower of an Infinite Mahayana powerhouse is something people would scramble to achieve.

"At that time, I accidentally entered the Iron Gall Star Realm while pursuing the Starry Sky Great Demon and sensed an unusual fluctuation in energy. I thought the Starry Sky Great Demon was hiding in the Iron Gall Star Realm, so I used the Loulan Slash to deal with it, not realizing it was Shen Qiao’an merging with the Star."

Zhang Lingfeng explained.

This was a reason given to him by Tian Mingyue.

Regardless of who he faced, he must never admit he entered the Iron Gall Star Realm to strike Shen Qiao’an.

"Enough, I’m not here to find trouble with you, merely to tell you that joining Ancient Moon Sect, you should do more for the Alliance. No matter what, you must master the complete Cultivation Method about the Power of the Stars from Ancient Moon Sect, as it will be highly useful for your tribulation."

Steward Ma snorted coldly.

He also knew this reasoning was told to Zhang Lingfeng by Tian Mingyue, and even Di Yaozong because his true form was in the Advanced Star Realm, also seeking Life Origin Power.

"Yes, I will definitely not let the Alliance down."

Zhang Lingfeng nodded.

"Shen Qiao’an is the Shen Family’s best candidate for nurturing planets; you destroyed Shen Qiao’an, and the Shen Family will surely use all means to retaliate against you. The Alliance cannot guarantee your safety at all times; even in Ancient Moon Sect, you must be careful, avoid contacting too many people, understood?"

Steward Ma warned.

"Yes!"

Zhang Lingfeng nodded again.

Steward Ma then waved his hand, and a yellow planet appeared in his palm.

"This planet is called Primeval One, within the Alliance-controlled Star Realm, and its Life Mass is nearly 4.0, almost equivalent to the entire Black Water Starfield.

It’s been under Alliance protection, and no one has fused with it yet.

This is the reward the Alliance gives to you for becoming a disciple of Ancient Moon Sect. I will give you the coordinates, and tell you the laws and the Life Star System on it, to help you integrate with it early and establish your footing in the Intermediate Star Realm."

Steward Ma said.

This was the main purpose of his visit to Zhang Lingfeng, seemingly to hold accountable, but actually to reward.

Zhang Lingfeng is a life from a Basic Star Domain, even if he now lets his power penetrate into the Intermediate Star Realm and can manipulate Intermediate Star Realm Law Power.

But as long as the planet his physical body fuses with isn’t a part of the Intermediate Star Realm, he won’t be able to quickly absorb the Star Power of the Intermediate Star Realm.

Entering Ancient Moon Sect will make it difficult to compete with other disciples, unable to gain significant attention from Ancient Moon Sect, possibly affecting his chance to obtain an entire Cultivation Method, forever becoming just a regular disciple of Ancient Moon Sect.

"This..."

Zhang Lingfeng frowned.

Tian Mingyue had already spoken to him about this matter.

Integrating with the Intermediate Star Realm means sacrificing the Black Water Starfield, and in the future, he can only channel his life, laws, and Qi Fortune Stars onto Primeval One.

At that time, for the Black Water Starfield to become an Intermediate Star Realm will become very difficult, as there will be another planet’s life waiting for Zhang Lingfeng’s power supplement.

"What, do you dislike its small mass?"

Steward Ma frowned.

"Brother, Primeval One was personally confirmed for you by Steward Ma. With your current cultivation, merging with such a planet is the easiest choice. After establishing yourself, you can seek larger Star Mass in the future.

The most important point is, Primeval One has been under Alliance protection; there aren’t many competitors for this planet, and not many can even compete against you."

Qin Tiancang reminded.

He envied Zhang Lingfeng greatly, because the first planet he fused with didn’t even amount to one tenth of Primeval One’s mass.

"I don’t want to merge with Primeval One, my current strength cannot yet accommodate the life of stars outside the Black Water Starfield."

Zhang Lingfeng explained.

He had sworn to evolve the Black Water Starfield into an Intermediate Starrealm, not just to challenge and confront the Shen Family, but as the best way to repay all beings in the Black Water Starfield.
