Chapter 2691: Chapter 2690: Earth-Shattering Heavenly Tribulation

The Ancestral Witch Bloodline is special. Because the bloodline is too overwhelmingly powerful, its bearer themselves finds it difficult to reproduce descendants.

However, since the Ancestral Witch Hou Tu Integrated with the Six Paths of Reincarnation, their bloodline fused with the Human Race through the Six Paths of Reincarnation, giving birth to one Great Witch after another.

Once the Great Witches had human bodies, they could reproduce descendants.

But speaking in terms of bloodline, the blood of the Great Witches was already no longer the pure Witch Tribe.

Not only did they possess powerful fleshly bodies, some even had what humans do—a Divine Sea—and could cultivate Divine Skills.

One must know, Ancestral Witches are born without a Divine Sea.

Thus, although their flesh and blood are formidable, they are unable to reach the state of Unity of Heaven and Man.

Jiufeng is an exception. She and Ancestral Witch Xuan Ming are born of the same origin; not only does she possess pure Witch Tribe Bloodline, she is innately gifted with Divine Skills.

After Long Fei passed the Formless Golden Light Rending Claw of the Kunpeng Ancestor to Jiufeng, that secret technique contained exquisite Space Law within.

As the saying goes, Dharma Laksana Mirrors Heaven and Earth—turning form into formless.

Though it’s only a single character’s difference, Jiufeng’s space secret technique was instantly raised by an entire level.

In her eyes, the world seemed to suddenly become much more transparent, with a strong sense of layered depth.

She reached out with her jade-like hand, directly rending the Void, and slipped out from a place ten thousand miles away.

She hadn’t even had time to feel pleased when the winds and clouds of the Void were already surging along with her.

Before she could figure out what was happening, a man suddenly wrapped his arms around her slender waist from behind, murmuring lightly into her ear, "Come with me."

The space before her eyes shifted, and when she reappeared she was already within a barren Star Domain.

"Why have you brought me here?"

Jiufeng struggled a bit, slipping out from the man’s embrace.

Although this man had just helped her break through, she had absolutely not thought about doing anything else with him.

Thinking of this, Jiufeng’s heart secretly skipped twice.

This man—if not Long Fei, who else could it be?

He stretched out his hand into the air, tugging on the stars and arranging them all around, actually setting up a starry Formation around himself and Jiufeng.

Jiufeng watched in surprise. "This is... the Celestial Grand Formation of the Universe?"

Long Fei said blandly, "Just a simple little formation, that’s all."

Jiufeng scolded shyly, "What are you doing this for?"

Long Fei smiled and said, "Don’t worry, I’m not planning to do anything to you. You’re about to face Heavenly Tribulation. I’m making preparations to help you block some of the Heavenly Tribulation so you can get through it easier."

"Heavenly Tribulation?"

Jiufeng stared up at the sky. She didn’t know when, but the winds and clouds had surged, and above her head a cloud layer of unknown bounds and a thousand meters thick had formed.

Jiufeng was startled. "We of the Witch Tribe only cultivate bloodline and flesh. Where would Heavenly Tribulation come from?"

Long Fei told her, "Though you are of the Witch Tribe, you were born with a Divine Sea. Right now, the Primordial Spirit in your Divine Sea is cultivating the Dao on its own; I’m afraid it’s about to face Immortal Tribulation."

Jiufeng froze for a moment, then hastily sat down to connect with her Divine Sea.

One look, and she was shocked. She hadn’t expected that within this Divine Sea there was actually a Primordial Spirit secretly cultivating to attain the Dao.

She had always focused exclusively on cultivating the fleshly body, never bothering with her Primordial Spirit.

Who knew that this Primordial Spirit would actually attempt to cross Immortal Tribulation today—and even draw such vast thunder down.

If Long Fei weren’t here, she would definitely be struck dead by Heavenly Thunder today.

One must know, the Heavenly Dao is the least tolerant of the Witch Tribe—let alone allowing the Witch Tribe to cultivate the Heavenly Dao Laws.

The fleshly body is Pangu’s Rule; the Primordial Spirit is precisely the Laws of the Heavenly Dao.

"You little wretch, you’re getting me into so much trouble!"

Jiufeng cried out coquettishly, somewhat tempted to self-destruct her Primordial Spirit.

But that Primordial Spirit was like a Female Immortal—immortal aura coiling about her, so radiant that one could hardly look straight at her.

She hovered in the center of the Divine Sea, suddenly opening her eyes as if traversing across endless ages. Through Jiufeng’s pupils she shot out two beams of light that instantly pierced across The Wastelands, across the Immortal Realm, across the Human Realm, across the Netherworld.

This gaze raced through the Three Realms and even saw a corner of the future.

Jiufeng’s head suddenly throbbed with stabbing pain; immediately after, she heard a thunderous boom by her ear—one bolt of shocking lightning fell from the heavens, fiercely hacking down onto her fleshly body.

The space around her instantly turned into a sea of thunder.

At the same time, the small Celestial Grand Formation of the Universe surrounding her began to operate, absorbing a small half of the Power of Thunder into it.

With a deafening rumble, nearly ten thousand Meteorite fragments lit up with golden light within the Formation at the same time, and were blasted into dust by this immense Power of Thunder.

Long Fei’s voice suddenly rang by Jiufeng’s ear, "Still your heart, calm your spirit, cross the tribulation and prove the Dao!"

Jiufeng’s panicked mind was instantly stilled; when the heart does not move, the spirit does not move.

The Primordial Spirit hidden in her Divine Sea closed its eyes for the time being, extinguishing its gaze, so that the surging Divine Sea suddenly calmed down.

The Nine Tribulations Heavenly Thunder followed right on its heels.

This Immortal Tribulation was comparable to the Immortal Tribulation that Long Fei had once crossed—a completely annihilatory level.

The Heavenly Dao does not tolerate the Witch Tribe; it would wash away this heaven-defying witch with the most powerful force of the Heavenly Dao Laws.

Layer after layer of thunder, sheet after sheet of electric light, bolt after bolt of lightning, shrouded Jiufeng within a heavy golden sea of thunder.

The searing heat was like a Taihua Star rising within The Wastelands.

Along with wave after wave of shock like ocean tsunamis, it spread outward in all directions at the same time.

The Celestial Grand Formation of the Universe that Long Fei had laid down lasted only one breath of time before simultaneously being blasted into dust by this immense, annihilatory force.

However, the devouring power of the Formation also eased quite a lot of pressure for Jiufeng.

Her pure Witch Tribe Bloodline was constantly forged by the thunder within the sea of lightning, like iron being worked over and over—cracking, then being mended; once mended, cracking open again.

Her fleshly body kept splitting open, then endlessly regenerating.

The impurities within were constantly expelled, until at last the skin of her fleshly body became translucent, like jade.

Long Fei stood at her side, quietly acting as her protector.

So long as her will wavered even a little, her flesh and Primordial Spirit would simultaneously be reduced to ash within the thunder, and afterward she would once more fall into Reincarnation.

Her bloodline was special—just a single drop of blood was enough for her to be reborn within the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

In the past, she no longer knew how many times she had already gone through scenes like this.

For this tribulation, she had even deliberately abandoned the cultivation of Divine Skills.

Unexpectedly, through the workings of the Heavenly Dao, she had unknowingly cultivated Divine Skills again, and now had to withstand this Fury of Thunder once more.

When her jade-like skin split open anew, the pain made her cry out in misery, her heart suddenly quivering, showing signs of failure.

Long Fei’s brows tightened; he immediately pointed out a drop of fresh blood toward her, striking it onto the space between her brows. It turned into a blood mist that rapidly flowed out to wrap around her body.

A surge of icy netherwater energy suddenly repaired the Essence of her fleshly body, making her shiver violently and cry out in alarm, "Brother!"

Her eyes flew open, fixing upon Long Fei.

Within that bloodline there was actually the pure aura of Ancestral Witch Xuan Ming.

Her body trembled; she suddenly remembered the time on the Northern Jambu Continent when her elder brother Xuan Ming manifested.

All at once, a flash of realization struck her. She furrowed her brows at Long Fei, her expression complex.

Long Fei chuckled lightly and reminded her, "Don’t just focus on staring at handsome men. Of the Nine Heavenly Tribulations, you’ve only crossed eight so far!"

Jiufeng’s gaze seemed half-annoyed, half-joyful as she glared at him once, then once more stilled her heart and calmed her spirit.

Immediately after, nine bolts of thunder simultaneously fell from the heavens.

They tore apart this stretch of cosmos, tore apart this stretch of space, blasted the stars within a radius of a million miles into flying ash, and finally shrouded Jiufeng’s body.

Between Heaven and Earth, it seemed that all other sound had vanished.

By her ears there was only the deafening rumble of thunder; space trembled violently, as though the entire universe were shaking.
