Chapter 1671 № Tyrannical Song requests assistance

　　“!!!” The virtuous lamia.

　　Wasn’t that discrimination against cultivators with long snake tails?

　　“Aaah, your servants can’t do it, your servants can’t do it!” The virtuous lamia and Senior Melon Eater received the 10 strikes of Purple Night Divine Lightning.

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater had several defensive magical treasures which automatically activated. This included ones that were shield-shaped, armor-shaped, and even table-shaped. Each of these defensive magical treasures was at the Eighth Stage, and top of the line at that.

　　However, under the strikes of the Purple Night Divine Lightning that had Ninth-Stage-level destructive power, these top-quality magical treasures were blown up one by one.

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater was heartbroken.

　　The losses it had suffered from this wave alone were in the tens of millions of Ninth Stage spirit stones!

　　“Tenfold Virtuous Palace!” The virtuous lamia quickly brought out the Virtuous Palace, and resisted a wave, getting some time to readjust herself.

　　❄️❄️❄️

　　In such a short period of time, over 100,000,000 bolts of Purple Night Divine Lightning had recondensed in the clouds in the sky.

　　Song Shuhang only needed to do a quick scan with his divine sense to know that the bolts of Purple Night Divine Lightning were about to strike down.

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater exclaimed, “Senior @#%×, I’ll take over and handle this wave!”

　　The Ninth Stage Heavenly Tribulation was like a wild horse, exerting its full power without hesitation; it had far surpassed an ordinary Ninth Stage heavenly tribulation. If Sage Monarch Melon Eater had attempted to cross the tribulation alone, the power of the heavenly tribulation would have definitely not been this strong.

　　It was only the first day of the Thousand Days Tribulation, yet the power it was dishing out was already several times higher than the final day of ordinary cultivators.

　　Its heart felt stifled.

　　However, in the face of such a powerful heavenly tribulation, Sage Monarch Melon Eater still had a few trump cards it could bring out.

　　Without trump cards… how could it even have the confidence to transcend the tribulation?

　　It had long since passed the age when one was impulsive.

　　However, this also meant that when its trump cards were used, the price it had to pay was relatively high as its trump cards were more terrifying than generic ones.

　　It had planned on using its trump cards on the ‘final day’, or at least near the final day, of the Thousand Days Tribulation in order to safely ascend to the Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender Realm.

　　But unexpectedly, its trump cards were already being forced out on the first day of the Thousand Days Tribulation.

　　The virtuous lamia replied, “Alright, you take over and resist the tribulation for a while. I’ll prepare a secret technique in the meantime.”

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater said, “I’ll try my best to hold on.”

　　The virtuous lamia transferred the control to Sage Monarch Melon Eater.

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater screamed, and its size began to grow.

　　It was originally a ‘fat whale’ with draconic features, but in a short time, it became a ‘fat dragon’. At the same time, a pair of huge wings stretched out on its back.

　　This was the origin of Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s bloodline—the embryonic form of the whale god combined with a true dragon’s form.

　　In addition to its whale god bloodline, Sage Monarch Melon Eater also had the blood of true dragons in its veins.

　　In the words of the Black Dragon World, it was a precious hybrid.

　　After taking on its fat dragon form, Sage Monarch Melon Eater swam around flexibly, setting up a formation.

　　The light of virtue around its body spread into lines before forming a net.

　　Song Shuhang softly said, “The Virtuous Network?”

　　As he looked at the net of virtue created by Sage Monarch Melon Eater, Song Shuhang felt the Golden Core Composition on his seventh small golden core, the ancient nether dragon soul, begin to resonate. After all, the Golden Core Composition ‘The Connected World’ was based on the Virtuous Network.

　　“Now… Virtuous Network node, light up for me!” Sage Monarch Melon Eater shouted gravely. Then, a huge burst of energy came pouring out from its body.

　　It was using a magical technique to burn its lifespan.

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater burned nearly 5,000 years of lifespan in a single breath, turning it into a steady stream of energy.

　　5,000 years of lifespan, just thinking about it made its heart hurt so much that it began to have trouble breathing. This was 5,000 years, not 5,000 RMB.

　　Fortunately, after becoming a Tribulation Transcender, its lifespan would directly enter the ‘tens of millions of years’ level. If it didn’t burn its lifespan now, then it wouldn’t have anything left if it died under the heavenly tribulation.

　　In fact, every Eighth Stage Profound Sage would utilize this method of ‘burning their lifespan’ at some point while ascending to the Ninth Stage.

　　Against the long ‘Thousand Days Tribulation’, how were they to survive without risking their life?

　　It was a process where one would ascend to the next realm; what was burning some lifespan in comparison!

　　The tremendous energy that Sage Monarch Melon Eater got from burning 5,000 years of lifespan was all poured into the Virtuous Network.

　　In the vast Virtuous Network, one node after another lit up.

　　At the same time, the resonance between Song Shuhang’s seventh small golden core and the Virtuous Network laid out by Sage Monarch Melon Eater in the sky became increasingly stronger, and the small golden core even began to heat up in the process!

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater gritted its teeth, and said, “It’s done.”

　　After burning its lifespan, a sense of weakness assaulted its body. It felt like its body had been hollowed out.

　　❄️❄️❄️

　　At the same time, the Purple Night Divine Lightning in the sky descended once more.

　　10,000,000 bolts of divine lightning came pouring down.

　　Then, another 50,000,000 followed.

　　After that, 100,000,000 bolts of divine lightning came storming down.

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s body shape retreated rapidly, while all the nodes on that Virtuous Network resonated with one another.

　　“Rumble~”

　　The Purple Night Divine Lightning fell into the net and was captured, exploding directly.

　　However, the Virtuous Network was extremely tough and was not damaged. Instead, the nodes, like a bottomless black hole, began to absorb the energy of the Purple Night Divine Lightning, feeding the energy back to the Virtuous Network.

　　The Virtuous Network had been strengthened, and its overall area had increased.

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s trick of hand-weaving the ‘Virtuous Network’ was something it had learned from the path of immortality that was left in the ‘Virtuous Network’.

　　With this ‘Virtuous Network’, Sage Monarch Melon Eater would have been able to lie down and relax if it had been an ordinary Ninth Stage heavenly tribulation.

　　Song Shuhang whispered, “Senior Melon Eater, beautifully done.”

　　At the critical moment, Senior Melon Eater turned out to be a reliable man… well, whale.

　　Shuhang stretched out his hand, and laid it on his belly.

　　The ‘Golden Core Composition’ on his seventh golden core had gotten scorching hot as if it were about to transform at any moment.

　　His sixth small golden core, the ‘ancient divine witch blood’, which was right beside the seventh small golden core had also been affected; it started to heat up as well. The QR code Golden Core Composition on it began to shine.

　　Song Shuhang silently circulated his ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯, doing his best to suppress his small golden cores.

　　Don’t make a mess at a time like this.

　　Just wait until we’re done transcending this tribulation.

　　❄️❄️❄️

　　Senior Melon Eater was like a diligent spider at this time, catching prey with its web.

　　The second wave of 50,000,000 bolts of divine lightning struck down, but even this was easily completely absorbed by the Virtuous Network.

　　During this period, Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s body was roaming around, constantly strengthening the Virtuous Network.

　　It should still be able to handle 100,000,000. However, if a billion were to strike down, I will have to burn lifespan again in order to reinforce the Virtuous Network, Sage Monarch Melon Eater estimated in its mind.

　　This was the proper manner in which one was supposed to transcend a tribulation.

　　Take a step, and then immediately think about the next few steps.

　　For each step, prepare the next in advance to be able to better resist what was to come. This was the best way to deal with the heavenly tribulation.

　　“Boom~”

　　As Sage Monarch Melon Eater had expected, the 100,000,000 bolts of ‘Purple Night Divine Lightning’ were also blocked.

　　After that, one billion bolts of Purple Night Divine Lightning immediately followed.

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater screamed, “It’s time. Burn 10,000 years of lifespan. Stop them for me!”

　　It had long prepared itself to burn 10,000 years of its lifespan. The burned lifespan turned into energy, which was all poured into the Virtuous Network, strengthening it and enhancing even more nodes.

　　The one billion bolts of Purple Night Divine Lightning superimposed into a dense cluster, and fell into the Virtuous Network.

　　As soon as the two made contact, Sage Monarch Melon Eater calmed down.

　　“It can block it!”

　　He could clearly feel that the Virtuous Network would be able to resist the attack!

　　The one billion bolts of divine lightning were no longer enough.

　　The next thing to guard against was the changes in the heavenly tribulation… The Thousand Days Tribulation would continue to get stronger as the days passed.

　　To what level will the following heavenly tribulation be strengthened to? Will it increase the number of divine lightning? Or will it directly change the form of the waves? Sage Monarch Melon Eater thought to itself.

　　Below, Song Shuhang suddenly said, “Wait, it feels like… there’s an earthquake?”

　　Sage Monarch Melon Eater exclaimed, “Damn!”

　　At the same time, Song Shuhang grabbed Li Yinzhu and carried her on his shoulders.

　　Under Song Shuhang’s control, the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Combined Magical Treasure pressed down on the ground.

　　“Boom!”

　　As the Holy City pressed down, flames and magma spewed out from the ground, and their power was comparable to the Purple Night Divine Lightning’s.

　　This was the fusion of the fire tribulation and the earth tribulation. Their attacks did not come from the sky, and emerged from the ground instead—this entire space was the ‘Tribulation-Transcension Space’, so the heavenly tribulation wouldn’t just send attacks from the sky. It could send attacks from anywhere and from any angle.

　　And with the passage of time during the ‘Thousand Days Tribulation’, it was possible that the heavenly tribulation might directly appear beside the people transcending the tribulation.

　　The ‘Impregnable Holy City’ lasted less than three breaths before falling apart.

　　It split up, turned into streams of light, and returned to Song Shuhang’s side.

　　Scholarly Indestructible Body of the Buddha, Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique, Steel Hands Technique, and Saber Intent Armor…

　　Song Shuhang brought out all of his defensive and body-tempering cultivation techniques in a single breath.

　　At the same time, he grabbed the ‘Holy Master Ape’s Sword’, using the sword as if it were a saber to display the ‘Inverted Scale Saber Technique’.

　　The Combined Magical Treasure included 33 secret explosive techniques such as the ‘Defiant Whale Golden Body’, the ‘Immortal Turtle Golden Body’, and the ‘White Tiger Golden Body’; all of these secret techniques were activated by Song Shuhang as well.

　　His current physique could reluctantly support the power of these 33 kinds of secret techniques.

　　However, this was still not enough.

　　I still need more power, I need to be stronger! Song Shuhang gritted his teeth.

　　Fifth Stage Golden Core Cultivators had another technique for desperate times.

　　By detonating their golden core, a cultivator could temporarily wield power close to the one generated by their self-destruction.

　　Song Shuhang’s advantage was that he had seven small golden cores.

　　Should he detonate one of them?

　　In his body, the seventh and sixth small golden cores were flickering frenziedly, hot and boiling.

　　❄️❄️❄️

　　In the Black Dragon World, beyond the atmosphere of evil energy.

　　The demonic hamster kept its sword coolly, stretched out its claws, and flicked its swordsman robe before putting away another two ‘black dragon spirit stones’.

　　The demonic hamster murmured, “My master still hasn’t come back. This isn’t good.”

　　It could hardly suppress its cultivation realm anymore.

　　“Master, please respond to me quickly. If this continues, I won’t be able to suppress my realm.” № Hamster prayed silently to its master, White Two.

　　This time, its prayers finally reached its master.

　　“Eh? № Hamster, you can’t suppress your realm anymore? Has that much time already passed?” Senior White Two’s voice sounded in its mind.

　　№ Hamster excitedly said, “Yes, Master. I can’t hold on for much longer.”

　　Senior White Two said, “Wait a bit longer, I’ll be done here soon… Eh? What’s this?”

　　In the next moment, a prompt appeared in front of № Hamster’s eyes.

　　[№ Tyrannical Song requests assistance, will you help him? Yes/No.]

　　“Hmph.” № Hamster raised its head slightly.

　　Was there even a need to ask?

　　Of course it would choose ‘No’!
