Chapter 1827: This is my dish

Why does Profound Sage Tyrannical Song have a tailor-made tribulation-transcending formation for me?

This is our first meeting, right?

Unless… Senior Tyrannical Song has investigated me in the past!

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword had just reminded him that he should have a bigger heart and a more open mind. As a result, Su Kongyun’s imagination began to go wild, going so far as to even think that Song Shuhang might have secretly investigated him in the past. He even felt that the entire series of ‘fortuitous encounters’ might have been arranged by Song Shuhang!

As for the reasons for such, was there even a need to say it? Hehehehe.

The more Su Kongyun thought about it, the more he felt that it was the truth.

If everything had really been planned out by Senior Tyrannical Song, then… he didn’t really mind it. He even hoped that Senior Tyrannical Song’s plans would go one step further.

If there was a senior that would set up all kinds of fortuitous encounters and formations for him without any malicious intent, that was simply be a beautiful matter.

Su Clan’s Sixteen’s voice sounded. “Stop thinking about nonsense. Just focus on setting up the tribulation-transcending formation.”

Su Kongyun grinned, and gave Su Clan’s Sixteen a thumbs-up.

Su Clan’s Sixteen looked puzzled.

Song Shuhang folded his arms and watched Su Kongyun draw the formation. At the same time, his divine sense spread out, covering the entire island and its surroundings. He wanted to prevent other cultivators from unknowingly running over, and getting involved in Su Kongyun’s heavenly tribulation.

Anyhow… Going back to the tribulation-transcending formation, it could indeed be said to be ‘tailor-made’ for Su Kongyun to an extent.

What Song Shuhang had was a very high-grade Third Stage tribulation-transcending formation diagram. It was the diagram he’d obtained from Demon Emperor Hezhi’s inheritance, which was to be used for the Braised Heavenly Tribulation among the ❮Heavenly Tribulation Grand Banquet❯.

This formation diagram for the Third Stage heavenly tribulation was carefully made by Demon Emperor Hezhi so that it would be suitable for daoists, scholars, buddhists, demons, beasts, and practitioners from other systems.

Compared to a true ‘tailor-made’ formation, it was definitely worse. However, since it was a general-purpose diagram useful to all kinds of systems, when it was presented to a cultivator, they would get the feeling as if the diagram greatly suited them.

It could be likened to a wonder drug of sorts, or perhaps blood type O; it could be used by most, if not all, practitioners in the universe.

In addition, Song Shuhang didn’t give Su Kongyun the original version of the diagram. The heavenly tribulation was undergoing changes at every moment, and there was a good chance that if they directly used the Demon Emperor’s tribulation-transcending diagram without any thought or modifications, Su Kongyun would be decimated by a new form of the heavenly tribulation straight away.

Therefore, he first handed Su Kongyun’s data to Senior Turtle, who was in the Inner World, asking it to modify the formation diagram to make it more suitable for Su Kongyun.

He was carrying around so many great seniors, and these seniors generally wouldn’t refuse to help him out with small, easy-to-do tasks like this. For a genuine Tribulation Transcender like Senior Turtle, it was very easy to modify a Third Stage tribulation-transcending formation.

After Senior Turtle finished modifying it, Song Shuhang showed the formation diagram to Su Kongyun. Although I don’t have the ability to draw a tribulation-transcending formation, the seniors I carry with me do!

❄️❄️❄️

Su Kongyun quickly set up his tribulation-transcending formation.

Song Shuhang and Su Clan’s Sixteen checked the formation to make sure there was nothing wrong with it.

Su Kongyun shouted, “Senior Tyrannical Song, I’ll be starting now!” He then took out a spirit stone, buried it in the tribulation-transcending formation, and activated the formation.

Song Shuhang and Su Clan’s Sixteen used their sabers to fly away from Su Kongyun’s tribulation area.

Su Kongyun took a deep breath. The true qi in each of the small dantians in his body converged into a single stream, all pouring into the seventh small dantian, the Dragon Horn Dantian. True qi came flowing out from the Dragon Horn Dantian, connected with the world, and began to attract the heavenly tribulation.

He then stretched out his hands and clutched a sword orb. True qi poured in, and the sword orb turned into threads, which then turned into swords in his hands.

Song Shuhang asked curiously, “Eh? Kongyun doesn’t use the saber?”

Su Clan’s Sixteen answered, “He once wanted to practice the saber with Seven, but he didn’t have a talent for it. Instead, he had a good talent for the sword. As such, later on, he learned a series of sword techniques from the Spirit River Su Clan.”

Song Shuhang’s heart felt stifled. Exchange with me, exchange your talent with me! It would be great if the two of us could exchange talents!

However, this thought merely flashed in his mind and was soon gone.

Surprisingly, at some point in time, Song Shuhang had become less obsessed with ‘sword talent’.

In fact, saber techniques and sword techniques were pretty much the same.

What truly defined things was one’s temperament.

For example, even if Senior White were using an ax, he would still be able to fly handsomely.

As long as Song Shuhang had the right temperament, he would be able to look especially handsome even when using the saber.

❄️❄️❄️

A tribulation cloud began to condense in the air.

[It’s here.] Song Shuhang looked at the Third Stage heavenly tribulation, restlessness beginning to build up in his heart. This was the ingredient he wanted!

However, the one transcending the tribulation was Su Clan’s Sixteen’s younger brother, someone who was as dear to Sixteen as Chu Chu was to Song Shuhang.

As such, Song Shuhang decided that he would not interfere with this heavenly tribulation so as to avoid any accidents.

Although the Third Stage heavenly tribulation was very tempting, he should wait until he caught a suitable Celestial or enemy cultivator before testing it out.

Patience was necessary in order to create the best dish.

Meanwhile, on the ground.

The true qi that erupted from Su Kongyun’s body drew spiritual energy, and a large amount of it gathered towards him. At the place where he stood, grass grew and flowers bloomed.

With the help of the tribulation-transcending formation, his mental state was raised to its peak. On the clothes on his body, the defensive runes lit up.

Su Clan’s Sixteen said softly, “Here it comes.”

In the air, thunder boomed.

A golden bolt of lightning emerged from the tribulation cloud and shot towards Su Kongyun.

The power of this lightning was not that great. This bolt of lightning merely signified that the tribulation had begun.

This bolt of lightning wasn’t even something that should belong to a Third Stage heavenly tribulation. Its might was, at most, at the beginner level of the Second Stage.

Su Kongyun stretched out his hand and released a streak of sword qi.

Inside this sword qi, there was already a ‘sword aura’ that had condensed—from this, it could be seen that he was indeed a little genius. As long as he was given enough time to practice, he would be able to condense his personal sword intent.

Strengthened by the tribulation-transcending formation, the sword qi faced off against the golden lightning.

“Boom~” The tribulation lightning exploded.

After a while, the second wave of the heavenly tribulation officially arrived.

“Boom!!!” A series of three tribulation lightning bolts descended from the sky. They were all at the peak of the Second Stage in power. In other words, each was equivalent to the full-powered blow of a cultivator at the peak of the Second Stage.

Su Kongyun fully mobilized the power of the tribulation-transcending formation, and sword light flashed… This sword light then turned into a huge turtle shell that covered the sky.

“Eh?” Su Kongyun was baffled.

Why did my sword intent turn into a turtle shell?

Is it because of the tribulation-transcending formation?

After the three bolts of tribulation lightning landed on the turtle shell, they bounced off towards Song Shuhang and Su Clan’s Sixteen in the distance.

At the same time, the tribulation cloud in the sky began to charge up again. With the lightning bolts from this wave having been bounced away, Su Kongyun was considered to have successfully dealt with this wave. Thus, the next wave had begun preparing itself!

Facing the incoming tribulation lightning, Song Shuhang subconsciously wanted to reach out and grab it.

Unfortunately, this lightning tribulation isn’t in a long strip form. Could it be that I really have to roll it into a long strip? This thought suddenly popped up in Song Shuhang’s mind.

No, wait… If I reach out and grab this tribulation lightning, wouldn’t I get involved in the Su Kongyun’s heavenly tribulation?

I must not grab it!

Song Shuhang pulled Su Clan’s Sixteen and quickly backed away..
