Celestial Peak

Chapter 273: Celestial King Stage

With both hands pressed against each other, Wang Ling's qi began to rise. The rise of his qi was quick but stable and his absorption of the Immortal Core was astonishing enough that as time flew by, Wang Ling began destroying his moldable Saint Soul and began its reformation.

Everyone who faces a Celestial Tribulation will have to create their third path by combining the first and second paths they have formed in the form of a Saint Soul and a Domain. But Wang Ling was already on his third path yet he had to break open the barrier of the Celestial Phase.

Wang Ling's path had always been undetermined since he reincarnated. He took a different path on his cultivation and life and he was slowly showing emotions other than anger and bloodlust.

His Saint Soul had been a temporary form that took form by forcing both qi to meet an agreement with one another. But what he is doing as of this moment is not only making the two qi form an agreement of coexistence but he was forcing it to create something that resembles that of creating a new kind of qi that exists not in his body.

Wang Ling made his Saint Soul crumble and golden clouds of dust remained around him. These clouds of dust began to take different colors. Three colors appeared. Golden, Black, and White. Black represents the Devilish Qi, White for Angelic Qi, and Gold for the Supreme Spirit Qi.

These three qis represented an even deeper meaning. Devilish Qi from his True Devil Bloodline, Angelic Qi from his Holy Lord Bloodline, and the Supreme Spirit Qi from his Human Bloodline.

These three coexists inside his body but as Wang Ling tried to make the force these three qis to form a new qi that is much more powerful than the last, Wang Ling failed.

He made the Saint Soul's remnants move, but as he tried to make it move and have the Black and White become one, Wang Ling failed because the Golden remnants intervened.

Wang Ling wanted to form a sword from these remnants, but the form he wanted it to take did not form. He tried time and time again not worrying about the consequences it may hold, but Wang Ling could not do it all.

And as he completed the sword for the fourth time, something inexplicable occurred. The Immortal Core finally cracked and then, poof, it turned to ashes as its final qi finally entered Wang Ling's body.

This shouldn't form much trouble, Wang Ling would have just postponed his breakthrough in order to perfect the form of his Saint Soul, but alas, his qi finally hit its limitations and without him doing starting anything, his Domain showed cracks.

[My cultivation can't hold on for much longer, it seems like I have to break through the next stage. I can't believe I am forced to this because I have peaked without my knowledge.] Wang Ling complained but he did not hesitate to straight-out break his Domain.

The black, white, and golden domain of his was destroyed to too many different pieces and Wang Ling runs out of the cave in order to get a better view of the tribulation he would be facing.

He stepped out and there and a purplish dark cloud that stretches for three kilometers and more. The lightning that was forming overhead was as thick as five to ten meters and the rumbling they carried was so intense that it shakes the ground he was standing on a little.

This is the tribulation that had been forming overhead since he attempted to remodel his Saint Soul. Wang Ling's face showed dark lines just as he laid his eyes upon the abomination that is the tribulation overhead.

"I have not seen this kind of tribulation before." Wang Ling was naturally unaware of what kind of tribulation that is headed his way. He was not from the higher realms and the strongest tribulation he had faced before was already the strongest in the realm.

It was the same tribulation Bai Xue had faced, the Seven Immortal Judge. Wang Ling had never seen an Immortal Tribulation before so it made him worry over this particular event.

Looking around, Wang Ling creased his brows as he yelled out loud. "Leave! Go and run away from here, Shadows, you will die if you do not go away NOW! You will only be casualties if you don't leave!" Seven figures simultaneously appeared from out of nowhere and followed Wang Ling's instructions.

He saw them leave and he whispered to himself, "Seems like Father already knew where I was. Well, I'll just face his anger later." Wang Ling thought so and prepared himself by taking on a horse stance and then screaming to the heavens, "COME!"

Boom! The purple lightning coalesces and descended while being accompanied by the roar of a ferocious beast. The image of a beast fully extending its jaws open was seen coming down from heaven and devouring the body of Wang Ling.

Wang Ling held the Hell's Edge with his right hand and then with one swift motion he slashed out and split the lightning tribulation into two. Wang Ling's body was shown as he forcefully made the first lightning to disperse.

The clouds of the lightning tribulation don't seem to like such a scene to unfold and quickly called upon the second lightning to descend. This time, Wang Ling roared and sped towards the skies and held the white sword with his left hand.

He extended the length of the sword and then whispered, "150,000 swords." Wang Ling slashed out and once again split the tribulation into two different pieces. However, this time his body sustained injuries.

Wang Ling's Saint Soul that had become the form of a sword was absorbing the Domain for quite some time now and every time Wang Ling brandishes his sword against the tribulation of Immortals, the Saint Soul would shake and tremble to respond to the might of his sword.

The process of his Saint Soul devouring the Domain hastened with the strange reaction it had shown. And in mere moments it would fully become a genuine Celestial Soul. The tribulation still has four lightning it can dish out and because Wang Ling was so domineering and his breakthrough was about to end sooner. The remaining tribulation coalesced to form a bolt of black lightning and with a roar to shake heaven and earth, the tribulation descended from the clouds and rendered the air and everything around Wang Ling in a five-kilometer range and extending.

Wang Ling was bathed in black lightning and his clothes began to burn and rip apart. His skin began to burn but as Wang Ling gritted his teeth, he held on both swords and with a roar, he ripped the tribulation apart and then the made the thick clouds disperse.

His clothes burned off and his body experienced pain, blood seeped out of his mouth but it was very minimal. Three lights burst out of the Celestial Soul that had just formed and then as he confirmed that he finally entered the Celestial King Stage, Wang Ling also found out that he was already about to reach Sword Divinity.

He was satisfied and he lost his consciousness shortly after. He crashed to the ground forming web-like cracks.

A few hundred meters away was Bai Xue heading to see how he is doing.
