Chapter 938: Chapter 189: Achieving Imperial Fame, Divine King’s Invitation (+4K Guaranteed Extra 13)_5

Here’s the translated text:

As the Annihilation Tribulation Divine Dagger was suppressed by Li Hao, and its power dissipated, the dagger seemed to sense the looming threat and resisted fiercely. It attempted to slay Li Hao, releasing a dusky Void Law.

However, before Li Hao could exert his force, Gong Ming directly activated the Sword Domain. This Sword Domain was even more terrifying than before, enveloping the Annihilation Tribulation Divine Dagger. As one wave after another of sword shadows swept through it, the Tribulation Light on the dagger was immediately dimmed and extinguished.

Under the dual suppression of Li Hao and Gong Ming, the Annihilation Tribulation Divine Dagger exploded with unwilling struggles and tremors. Yet, in the end, it lost its radiance, and its Tribulation Power dissipated.

Li Hao immediately directed Gong Ming to absorb the power.

Soon, the brilliance of the Annihilation Tribulation Divine Dagger faded entirely. It became fragile and was directly shattered into countless fragments.

Li Hao could sense that within the fragments, the Spiritual Sense had already dissipated, yet a faint trace of the Emperor Weapon’s origin remained. Just as the Saint Path is indestructible, so too could a Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapon not be obliterated entirely–it would merely fragment into countless pieces.

With nourishment from the Heaven and Earth Treasures, it could bloom once again with splendor and regenerate its Spiritual Sense.

Li Hao couldn’t help but wonder whether Gong Ming had once faced a similar fate–destroyed and reduced to the nourishment of other Emperor Weapons.

As the Tao Tribulation power from the Annihilation Tribulation Divine Dagger was absorbed, the aura around Gong Ming grew even mightier. Li Hao fed the remaining Heaven and Earth Treasures to it, and once the last Treasure was completed, the skies where the Tribulation Clouds had previously dispersed began to gather dark clouds again.

Li Hao estimated, based on Feng’s words, that the power provided by the Annihilation Tribulation Divine Dagger to Gong Ming was equivalent to that of more than thirty pieces of Heaven and Earth Treasures.

At this moment, as the Tribulation Clouds converged, the spectators from the Thieving Heavenly Sacred Land, who had just been stunned earlier, were once again bewildered.

“???”

They looked up, watching everything with confusion.

Three Heavenly Tribulations in merely half a day?

When they saw the Emperor Sword ascend to the skies again, their eyes widened in disbelief–they realized that a formidable, unparalleled weapon had been birthed.

This time, the Heavenly Tribulation was even fiercer, yet Gong Ming surged forth with an even more magnificent aura. It maneuvered through the Tribulation Clouds, soaring sharply and slashing them apart. In no time, it passed through the Heavenly Tribulation by relying solely on its own strength.

The Tribulation Power burned faint cracks onto the blade of the sword, but as Dao Power surrounded it, the sword quickly healed and regenerated, becoming even sharper and more fearsome.

Additionally, perhaps due to absorbing the Annihilation Tribulation Divine Dagger, Gong Ming was now entwined with Thunder Fire Tribulation Power, resembling the aura of the Annihilation Tribulation Divine Dagger.

If it hadn’t already been named, calling it the Annihilation Tribulation Divine Sword wouldn’t have been inappropriate.

Li Hao gripped Gong Ming and felt its imperial might, as well as the joyful Spiritual Sense resonating from within. Staring at the blade, he felt as though he were holding a dangerously sharp treasure, hesitant to touch the sword edge lightly.

It was an instinct–at this moment, Gong Ming could easily pierce through his Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapon and could even penetrate his physical body without effort.

“My physical body has reached the Saint threshold, yet I have not refined or created my own Physical Body Saint Method. After undergoing the baptism of the Human Tribulation, my physical body is only at the level of a Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapon.”

Li Hao’s eyes sparkled, instantly realizing that his physical body still had significant potential for improvement.

Though his physical cultivation had reached the Final Realm, there remained room for growth within the Physical Body Saint Path. Such growth relied on Tribulation Power.

This force could destroy everything and yet protect everything–it was the primordial power of heaven and earth.

“With this Emperor Weapon, even the older Three Calamities Saints would have to shy away from your edge.”

Feng Boping glanced at the Emperor Sword in Li Hao’s hand, his eyes gleaming with joy and a smile.

Li Hao understood that while the Green Lamp Buddha and Void Ancestor were ancient Three Calamities Saints, they weren’t among the top-tier ones. Feng’s remark referred to those who were only second to the Supreme Saints.

Li Hao communicated with Gong Ming’s Spiritual Sense, comprehending its wondrous abilities. Beyond its unparalleled sharpness, Gong Ming had developed a unique capability: by reciting an enemy’s name, it could trace their causation and origin, locking onto them regardless of the distance.

If the Green Lamp Buddha escaped with the Green Lamp again, Li Hao could use Gong Ming to track him down. This ability effectively compensated for his flaws in movement technique–no matter where the enemy fled, even to the ends of the earth, they could be pursued.

“If I undergo more Tribulations in the future, I could call out an enemy’s name from thousands of miles away, and Gong Ming would slay them in my stead.”

Li Hao’s eyes sparkled with determination. In truth, Gong Ming already possessed such a capability. Against Three Calamities Saints lacking a Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapon, Li Hao only needed to recite their name. With the image and aura of the opponent appearing in his mind, Gong Ming could lock onto them, swiftly flying forth to vanquish them!

This ability was downright terrifying.

As his power advanced further, Li Hao felt both joy and an acute awareness that he needed to grow even stronger.

The Source Ancestor wielded a Seven Tribulation Emperor Weapon, while Li Hao had heard from Feng that the Mixed Heaven Saint also possessed a Six Tribulation Emperor Weapon which had been revealed before.

Gong Ming, though merely a Two Tribulation weapon, was already this fearsome. The power of a Six Tribulation Emperor Weapon was unimaginable–this was a gap even the Extreme Realm couldn’t mend.

“If I endure another two Tribulations, my physical body should progress further!”

Li Hao’s eyes gleamed as he pondered.

Others seek to endure Three Tribulations; he aimed for Nine Tribulations.

Yet, while Tribulations brought destruction, they also heralded rebirth, leading to greater strength!

However, before this, Li Hao decided to first push the All Heavens Star Vein cultivation to its limit.

He had already cultivated over a thousand star veins, yet the number seemed endless. Li Hao refused to believe this path had no endpoint. If he truly mirrored the myriad stars across the sky, it would mean countless star veins–a feat that could lead to unparalleled strength.

Li Hao wasn’t in a rush. The more star veins he refined, the better. In truth, he hoped this path would be boundless.

As the matter of the Heavenly Tribulation passed, within half a month, no one in the Holy Land spoke of it any longer.
