1298 Do You Still Have the Nerve to Rejoice? (1/2)
”This is...this is at least a Golden Celestial's tribulation. We don't have among us any apex Heaven Celestial who is about to reach the Golden Celestial Stage. So why did this happen?” Ji Wuyun spoke with surprise, before he raised his head and looked at the sky. He found this matter horrifying! Even though Ji Wuyun was at the Heaven Celestial's Medium Stage, which was separated from the Golden Celestial Stage by just a single little stage, his heart still palpitated with fear as he faced such heavenly might.
The crowd couldn't help but move back by several steps, and they tried to distance themselves as much as possible from the area engulfed by the Lightning Tribulation. But regardless of how much they moved back, the stifling and suffocating feelings they had didn't disappear.
RUMBLE! Another deafening thunder roll echoed all around, and everyone's hearts skipped a beat, while they looked at each other in dismay. They were quite restless! Even some Guardians at the Golden Celestial Stage wore grave and wary looks. RUMBLE! Soon another thunder roll burst from the sky, while the lightning's aura became stronger. However, even though the thunder could be heard throughout this whole process, they couldn't see any lightning, and this was quite strange.
”Is it possible that someone is crossing his tribulation outside, and it just so happened that he's standing atop us?” Someone made a guess.
”It could be the case. Otherwise, I have no idea why this is happening.” Ji Wuyun nodded, even though he was still quite confused. Such a great Golden Celestial's tribulation couldn't be summoned by an ordinary Heaven Celestial Stage's cultivator, and the person crossing the tribulation must be a great genius. But they hadn't heard about any genius in the Heaven Continent who was ready to advance into the Golden Celestial Stage.

Meanwhile, Xu Que was still sitting cross-legged in the Godhead's dimension, while his whole body shone brightly. Many thick golden lightning bolts were crazily bombarding Xu Que's body. The Earth Celestial tribulation had already descended! However, Xu Que was still unmoved, and he didn't bother with putting up any defense. He just allowed the Lightning Tribulation to strike his body freely, while he wore a content look as if he was enjoying it, with a smile plastered on his face. His whole being seemed terrifying!
The fluctuation of the Godhead's emotions gave rise to a response in its dimension. It was obvious that even this Godhead was scared, and, even though it was a Godhead left behind by a God that possessed some of the God's memory and intellect, it was still scared by Xu Que's way of crossing the tribulation. Its intellect questioned: ”Is this still a human? Isn't he a God? This guy was facing an Ancient Catastrophe, yet he could still continue cultivating on the ground without giving any regard to it. How strong is his body? Huh? Hold on, something is fishy!”
All of a sudden, the sentient Godhead had the impulse to throw up. It recalled the oath that Xu Que had taken a while ago. He had stated that if he violated the oath, he was willing to face Purple Lightning Tribulation, Ancient Catastrophe, and Heaven's lightning strikes. ”However, the current issue was that since Xu Que could cross a tribulation in such a way, was such an oath even useful?”
”Alas, what is going on? Why did the Celestial Core Power stop flowing over? Don't stop, I'm just crossing a trifling tribulation, and it won't affect my cultivation. Hurry up, and continue supplying it.” Xu Que's eyes snapped open suddenly, and he shouted loudly. He had been cultivating cheerily a while ago, yet the Godhead suddenly stopped supplying him with Celestial Core Power. This was why Xu Que was forced to break off his cultivation.
In the end, the Godhead conveyed its wish to Xu Que. It wanted him to take another oath that wasn't related to Heavenly Tribulation. Xu Que was displeased by this, and he said, ”What the h*ll! How many wishes do you have? Don't you trust me? What! Do you still have the nerve to mention such a matter?”
RUMBLE! Another strike of the Lightning Tribulation descended and hit Xu Que's body heavily. But even though Xu Que's body was engulfed by a golden radiance, he was still safe and sound. The reason behind this wasn't just because he was accustomed to Ancient Catastrophes; it was mainly due to his powerful fleshly body. A second-rate Holy Physique had a fully justified reputation, and even when it was a second-rate Mighty Body, it was still able to deal with these Heavenly Tribulations, let alone now that it had turned into a Holy Physique that was of a higher grade.
