Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon

After Qin Yun returned to Mt . Lightning Roar, he first set up the Myriad Sword Array and instructed his wife and children on the secrets to controlling the array formation . Following that, he entered a chamber and chose not to meet anyone .

“I have done everything I can for my family . ” Qin Yun sat cross-legged on a mat . “I do not need to concern myself with it further . Each person has their own fates .

“All I need to do now is to focus on transcending the tribulation . ”

Qin Yun closed his eyes .

After throwing his family, master, friends, and everything aside, the only thing left in his mind was cultivation, his Sword Dao .

Qin Yun peacefully closed his eyes in meditation as he scrutinized his Sword Dao as its charms kept flashing past his mind .

Three days left before the tribulation…

Two days left…

One day left…

As the moment drew nearer, Qin Yun’s heart turned even calmer . Deep in his calmness hid infinite fighting spirit that was akin to a volcano! He wished to shatter the legendary Itinerant Immortal tribulations!

“Oh?”

Qin Yun slowly opened his eyes as a sharp glint flashed from them . “Three days have passed . The Heavenly Tribulation is coming?”

The three days of peaceful cultivation made his Dao heart improve one step further . Presently, his Dao heart was ever so clear without any burdens or concerns . He had an indomitable momentum that would destroy all obstacles before him .

“Rumble~”

Qin Yun stood up and left the chamber to see a group of people gathered outside . His wife, parents, elder brother, Yiyi, Meng Huan, Yuluo, and others were there, as well as his disciples . They all shared extremely close relationships with Qin Yun .

“Yun’er . ” Qin Liehu and Changlan’s eyes were bloodshot . They were now carefree Skyimmortals, but their son, Qin Yun, had to face the most terrifying Itinerant Immortal tribulation .

“Father, Mother, Brother, you came too . ” Qin Yun said with a smile .

“Brother, I believe that no tribulation can daunt you,” said Qin An .

Qin Yun nodded as his gaze landed on his wife .

Yi Xiao extended her hands and grabbed his hands as they sensed the thoughts of each other . Yi Xiao whispered, “Many mighty figures came today, many your best friends . ”

“I know . ” Qin Yun nodded . He had sensed them with a thought .

“Brother Yun, you don’t have to care about anything . Focus on transcending the tribulation . ” Yi Xiao looked at her husband as she said softly . “You know that I’m the one who hopes the most that your transcendence of the tribulation is a success . ”

“Yeah, it’s about time . I need to face the tribulation,” Qin Yun said with a smile as he swept his gaze across Qin Yiyi, Meng Huan, Yuluo, Bian Hanyu, Qing Shuang, and others . Following that, he took a step and flew into the distance .

“Dad . ” Qin Yiyi and Meng Huan were gripped with anxiety .

All of them flew behind him as well .

However, they flew to another mountain peak of Mt . Lightning Roar, not daring to follow closely . They might get implicated by the terrifying Heavenly Tribulation if they came too close .

“Whoosh . ”

Qin Yun soared away from Mt . Lightning Roar and flew into the distance .

At a glance, he saw numerous mighty figures gathered at Mt . Lightning Roar . Fuxishi, Suirenshi, and Shennongshi were here . Kong Xuan, Rushou, Goumang, and Hou Yi, his comrades-in-arms were here as well . His Eldest Senior Sister, Old Mother of Blackfoal Mountain, and Myriad Treasure who had long become a Buddhist, were here as well! There was Ancestral Dragon and Yang Jian too .

There were also old friends from the Great Chang world . Human Emperor, Ancestral Master Zhang, Ninth Hong, and Eighth Zhu from the Great Chang world, as well as Yellow-robed Supremacy and Immortal Sa Xu .

A large bunch of people with relationships with Qin Yun arrived at Mt . Lightning Roar .

He smiled as he looked at them and was met with smiling faces . None of them came forward to bother Qin Yun .

“Whoosh . ”

Qin Yun flew out of Mt . Lightning Roar’s vicinity and landed on the peak of a mountain about fifty kilometers away .

Looking up towards the firmaments, a tribulation cloud was slowly gathering . In probably less than ten minutes, the Heavenly Tribulation would descend .

“There sure are many people watching my tribulation today . ” At Qin Yun’s realm, he could sense numerous mighty figures watching him remotely through space, such as the demon’s Demon Emperor Bai Ze, the Buddhists’ Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the Empyrean Lords of the Heavenly Courts… Nearly all the mighty figures in the Three Realms were watching .

“Hmph!”

In the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss, Fiend Ancestor’s Destruction body looked remotely at Qin Yun . “The eleventh Itinerant Immortal tribulation required the strength of a perfected Great Dao to withstand it . The twelfth Itinerant Immortal tribulation probably needs strength at the Heavenly Dao realm . Qin Yun will definitely die this time! Today, I’ll watch him die! Once he’s dead, us fiends will have one less enemy . What follows will be a lot easier . ”

Sword Immortal Qin was definitely the vanguard when it came to dealing with the fiends . If possible, the Fiend Ancestor was willing to pay the price of a Connate Cardinal treasure to have Qin Yun dead!

Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do to Qin Yun .

In the Three Realms, with him under the protection of Numinous Treasure Dao Ancestor, no one could kill Qin Yun as long as he did not court death . All the Fiend Ancestor could do was pin his hopes on the Heavenly Tribulation .

In Eight Scenic Palace, a white-bearded Grand Supreme Dao Ancestor said, “I remember that back when Bai Ze’s former incarnation faced the tribulations, he perished under the eighth Heavenly Lightning bolt at the twelfth Itinerant Immortal tribulation . The eighth Heavenly Lightning was already nearing the might of the Heavenly Dao realm . ”

“Perhaps the ninth Heavenly Lightning is at the Heavenly Dao realm,” said Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning . “It’s just unknown how many bolts of Heavenly Lightning there are . ”

“If the Itinerant Immortal tribulations have an end, it definitely wouldn’t be this simple . After all, this is a tribulation count determined by the Chaos’s Heavenly Dao,” said Goddess Nüwa . “Previously, the eleventh Itinerant Immortal tribulation was only a Fire Tribulation! Before that, it was only a Wind Tribulation… I feel that if it’s the final Itinerant Immortal tribulation, then the three tribulations of Wind, Fire, and Lightning would all be very potent . And the Wind and Fire Tribulations that Bai Ze experienced in his former incarnation were weaker . Perhaps what Bai Ze previously experienced was just the tip of the iceberg of the final tribulation . ”

“Nüwa, do you think there will be a thirteenth Itinerant Immortal tribulation?” Numinous Treasure asked .

“I’m guessing that this is the final tribulation,” said Nüwa . “If there’s a thirteenth one, how strong would it be? The tribulation count as set by the Chaos’s Heavenly Dao must have some end, after all . ”

“What Nüwa says makes sense,” Buddhist Ancestor Gautama agreed . “I also agree that this should be the final tribulation . Bai Ze was weak in his previous incarnation, so we didn’t get to see the final twelfth Itinerant Immortal tribulations . This time, I believe we will be able to see it all . ”

Numinous Treasure overlooked all of this as he watched his disciple face the tribulations .

Among the many Heavenly Dao realm existences, he was the most anxious one .

…

On the mountain, Qin Yun stood there facing the Heavenly Tribulation alone .

“If I can transcend this Heavenly Tribulation, I will be truly carefree! Death awaits me if I fail . There are no other paths for me except for the forging of a path of survival . ” Qin Yun silently looked at the tribulation cloud form .

“Phew–”

“The wind is stirring . ” Qin Yun sensed it . “The Wind Tribulation is coming . ”

The Wind Tribulation was a Yin wind that came from within his body .

There was no way of defending against it, not even with the Misty Rain Array . It was formed naturally within one’s body and swept across every part of his body . Qin Yun’s Essence Soul was powerful and his Dharmic powers pure . He was completely able to withstand the Yin winds .

Even as the Yin winds raged, external winds came! The Wind Tribulation began striking down…

“Set up the array!”

The Misty Rain Sword flew out and instantly split into three .

As a Misty Rain Array enveloped his surroundings with a misty drizzle, the Wind Tribulation’s strikes were completely defended by the Misty Rain Array . However, the Yin winds kept brewing in his body, like countless knives lacerating his Essence Soul as they grew with increasing strength .

“This Yin wind’s might sure is huge . My Essence Soul suffers immense damage from the laceration . ” Qin Yun sensed the damage he was inflicted with and slowly, he realized that his Essence Soul was being sliced by countless knives like a catharsis, a form of tempering! After experiencing the lacerations, his Essence Soul turned firmer like tempered metals . His Essence Soul also became purer from the tempering, even though it had shrank drastically .

Qin Yun flipped his hand and took out a jade bottle . He poured out an Immortal Pill and immediately consumed it to make up for the loss of his Dharmic powers .

The Essence Soul which had shrunk in size but turned more resilient restored to its original size after obtaining the energy from the Immortal Pill . Furthermore, the Essence Soul turned a lot more stronger .

“Oh?” Qin Yun suddenly felt a wind dissipate as the temperatures around him soared . “The Fire Tribulation is here . ”

It was the Fire Tribulation’s turn out of the three tribulations—Wind, Fire, Lightning .
