Sky-Forbidden God-Slaying Slash

This wasn't the first time Zhuge Xiang had witnessed the Immortal-Demon Tribulation. He had seen it when Ying Wushuang Zhuge Xiang entered the Great Accomplishment Stage. However, for Zhuge Xiang, his current strength was already top-tier, even at the Immortal-Demon Tribulation -Immortal-Demon level. This was merely Immortal-Demon Tribulation limited by the Great Accomplishment Stage Realm, so it naturally couldn't cause Zhuge Xiang any harm.

Let alone the Bull Demon God Armor, Zhuge Xiang's physical strength from the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique Fifth Layer alone was enough to withstand this Immortal-Demon Tribulation. The Five Elements Tribulation Lightning quickly dissipated under Zhuge Xiang's strong resistance.

Seemingly enraged by Zhuge Xiang's disdainful attitude, the Tribulation Clouds of the Immortal-Demon Tribulation did not dissipate after the Five Elements Tribulation Lightning; instead, they became even larger.

The existence of Heavenly Tribulation is to test whether cultivators truly have the ability to advance to the next level. It also relates to the majesty of Heavenly Tribulation. If a cultivator has to overcome countless difficulties to survive Heavenly Tribulation, then there is no further reward to follow. However, if a cultivator who is about to undergo Heavenly Tribulation passes through it easily, then a higher level of Heavenly Tribulation reward will be triggered.

For example, the Small Heavenly Tribulation for a Qi Refining Cultivator entering the Qi Refining Stage Deity Transformation stage is normally Hundred Strikes of Lightning Tribulation, but higher-level tribulations include the Sword of Judgment and even the Lightning Crystal Dragon Palace. The Great Heavenly Tribulation for Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator entering the Void Returning Stage is normally Lightning Storm, but even stronger forms include Thousand Zhang- Thunder God formed from Lightning and the Thunder God's Hammer Immortal-Demon Tribulation? Ying Wushuang only experienced the Five Elements Tribulation Lightning that day; what are the higher-level ones?

Enormous Tribulation Clouds gathered in the sky above the Asura Path, making the already dim Asura Path even darker. Dazzling Lightning gathered within the Tribulation Clouds, and along with the Tribulation Lightning, there were also incredibly hot Heavenly Fire within the Tribulation Clouds. The white Flame were filled with an overbearing aura, and the mixture of Flame and Lightning was so powerful that one could feel the tremor of their soul.

"Oh? A higher-level Sacred Flame Heavenly Thunder Slash?" Looking at the white Flame and Tribulation Lightning gathering in the Tribulation Clouds in the sky, the Great Emperor who presided over the Sacred War raised an eyebrow slightly, then smiled again, "That's right, if the Winning the Championship my Asura Path Sacred War can't even trigger the Sacred Flame Heavenly Thunder Slash during the Great Heavenly Tribulation, wouldn't that be too absurd?"

The Sacred Flame Heavenly Thunder Slash is a more powerful form of the Immortal-Demon Tribulation. The powerful figures of the Asura Path naturally recognize it, or rather, many of the powerful figures who have ascended this Sole Dominance Mountain have experienced the Heavenly Tribulation of the Sacred Flame Heavenly Thunder Slash. Therefore, they were not surprised by the appearance of Zhuge Xiang's Sacred Flame Heavenly Thunder Slash.

The Heavenly Tribulation attacks that gathered in the sky quickly descended. The Sacred Flame Heavenly Thunder Slash, as expected of a higher-level Heavenly Tribulation, was several times stronger than the previous attacks. However, Zhuge Xiang's current strength was at the peak of the Immortal-Demon level, closest to the Great Emperor level. How could this mere Immortal-Demon Tribulation shake him? Therefore, even with the higher-level Sacred Flame Heavenly Thunder Slash, Zhuge Xiang only needed to expend some mental energy to block it.

Although the Immortal-Demon Tribulation and Demons wasn't too difficult for Zhuge Xiang of the Asura Path, Zhuge Xiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief as he passed through Heavenly Tribulation. In this way, he could be considered to have rightfully reached the Great Accomplishment Stage, and moreover, he had reached the Fifth Layer of the Great Accomplishment Stage.

With such cultivation, once he returned to the Cultivation World, even if restricted by the Heavenly Dao, Zhuge Xiang believed he would be able to rival Ying Qianshan.

After the Immortal-Demon Tribulation was over, Zhuge Xiang's mind was also immersed in the Bag Space. The Indestructible Will was the reward for Winning the Championship mission, while the Sky-Forbidden God-Slaying Slash was Skill Book that was obtained after defeating the Purple Emperor. Zhuge Xiang was eager to see the difference between the two Skill Book.

First is Indestructible Will; one Skill Point is used, and the Skill's effect quickly appears.

"Indestructible Will (Beginner Level): Can refuse death. No matter what kind of attack you take, you will forcibly retain 10% of your HP for 3 seconds."

This Indestructible Will Skill is a status Skill, but its effect is quite good. In some ways, it is even more applicable than the Decoy Straw Man. The Decoy Straw Man can only help you block one attack, but this Indestructible Will can make you immune to death for a certain period of time.

Needless to Skill, Zhuge Xiang invested three more Skill Point, reaching the highest level of Perfection Level, and the duration of Indestructible Will reached a full 9 seconds.

Within 9 seconds, no matter what damage you face, you will forcibly retain 10% of your HP. Zhuge Xiang was quite satisfied with this Indestructible Will Skill. Then, Zhuge Xiang's gaze fell on the Skill Book for the Sky-Forbidden God-Slaying Slash.

Judging from the name, this seems to be an offensive Skill. I wonder how effective it will be?

Sky-Forbidden God-Slaying Slash (Beginner Level): Consumes one Treasure Artifact; subsequent Skill attacks gain +100% attack power.

Upon seeing the "Sky-Forbidden God-Slaying Slash" Skill, Zhuge Xiang was slightly taken aback. This Skill didn't consume MP, but instead required a Treasure Artifact -level piece of equipment? This was quite strange; it was the first time Zhuge Xiang had ever seen Skill that required equipment to activate. Moreover, it could enhance the attack power of subsequent Skill, which was quite impressive.

Intrigued, Zhuge Xiang then spent two more Skill Point, only to be somewhat dumbfounded.

The Skill at the Proficient Level Realm requires equipment of the Lingbao" level, but it increases attack power by 200%. The Skill at the Mastery Level of the Whole" level requires equipment of the Half-Immortal Artifact Grade, but similarly, it increases attack power by 400%.

A 400% increase in Skill attack power? Like the Great Five Elements Sword Formation? Just thinking about it made Zhuge Xiang gasp. However, to reach this point, it would require consuming a Half-Immortal Artifact. Similarly, Zhuge Xiang felt the pinch. As for upgrading the Sky-Forbidden God-Slaying Slash to the highest level of Perfection Level, Zhuge Xiang didn't dare to use his last Skill Point.

Obviously, if another Skill Point is invested, the attack power bonus will be even more powerful. According to the pattern of double increase, it may even reach a terrifying 800%. However, it might consume a real Immortal Artifact- grade equipment? If so, this Skill would be wasted, since I don't have an Immortal Artifact at the moment.

"Alright, the battle has come to an end. Now, let's begin awarding the Sacred War." Just as Zhuge Xiang still reeling from the power of the Sky-Forbidden God-Slaying Slash and its terrifying consumption, the Great Emperor who presided over the Sacred War announced that Zhuge Xiang had survived the Immortal-Demon Tribulation, drawing Zhuge Xiang's attention away from the Skill.

The reward for the top ten in the Sacred War was Demon Artifact, the Blood Transformation Divine Saber. Naturally, the Great Emperor who presided over the Sacred War handed the Blood Transformation Divine Saber to Zhuge Xiang. Upon receiving the Blood Transformation Divine Saber, Zhuge Xiang's first Demon Artifact, he lowered his head and examined it carefully.

The Blood Transformation Divine Saber was about five feet long, with a dark red blade that seemed to be soaked in blood. Holding the blade, a terrifying Blood Fiend Qi surged into one's mind, tempting one to madness. If Zhuge Xiang had not successfully cultivated the Fifth Layer of the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique, greatly increasing his Divine Sense, he might not have been able to resist this terrifying Blood Fiend Qi. Zhuge Xiang down and examined the information about the Blood Transformation Divine Saber, which appeared in his eyes.

Blood Transformation Divine Saber (Demon Artifact): Attack +800,000, requires Immortal-Demon level strength, passive effect: restores 1% of the user's maximum HP with each hit, durability 1280/2300, weight 55.

Upon seeing the information about the Blood Transformation Divine Saber, Zhuge Xiang's eyes widened. Leaving aside its powerful passive effect, the mere 800,000 attack power was enough to make anyone envious. Zhuge Xiang's Sea Calming Divine Needle, strengthened by the power of the Great Tang's Vow Power, was arguably among the top-tier Half-Immortal Artifact, yet its attack power was only 280,000. Compared to the Blood Transformation Divine Saber, it was far inferior. The difference between Half-Immortal Artifact Grade and Demon Artifact was indeed immeasurable.

However, the Blood Transformation Divine Saber requires Immortal-Demon level strength. With Zhuge Xiang's current cultivation at the Fifth Layer of the Great Accomplishment Stage, it seems that it will take some time before he can use it. Besides, once he reaches the Immortal-Demon level, Zhuge Xiang will have to ascend.

As Zhuge Xiang carefully examined the Blood Transformation Divine Saber, admiring it with great affection, the other powerful figures went up to collect their respective rewards. Zhuge Xiang's gaze fell upon the Great Black Iron formed from the South Heaven Gate.

Although the Blood Transformation Divine Saber is powerful, in Zhuge Xiang's view, the South Heaven Gate component is even more valuable. If someone else were to obtain that component, Zhuge Xiang would not hesitate to exchange it for the Blood Transformation Divine Saber.

However, as the powerful figures went up to collect their prizes, no one chose the parts of the South Heaven Gate. After all, the prizes offered by the Great Emperor were the best equipment, and even the medicinal herbs and other materials had explanations explaining their effects. But the parts of the South Heaven Gate, apart from being extremely sturdy, were otherwise unknown. Therefore, after a round of selection, no one wanted the parts of the South Heaven Gate.

"Next, Mo Lingna."

Beyond the top eight, the last two were tied between Mo Lingna and Shadow Ghost Emperor. Therefore, after Zhuge Xiang and the other top eight had each chosen their prizes, when only the South Heaven Gate component and a jade pendant of Half-Demon Artifact level remained, the Great Emperor who presided over the Sacred War spoke up and let Mo Lingna choose first.

"Sigh..." Looking at the jade pendant and the Great Black Iron that were Half-Demon Artifacts, the Shadow Ghost Emperor sighed inwardly.

Although the jade pendant, a Half-Demon Artifact, was not very effective, and could even be considered the worst among Half-Demon Artifact, and was almost damaged, the Shadow Ghost Emperor still preferred the jade pendant to the Great Black Iron of unknown material and function. However, since Mo Lingna went up to choose first, the Shadow Ghost Emperor had no choice but to select the Great Black Iron as the last option.

Hearing the Great Emperor's words, allowing her to choose first, Mo Lingna's face lit up with joy. Clearly, compared to the Great Black Iron, she preferred the Half-Demon Artifact -level jade pendant, as she didn't possess a single Half-Demon Artifact -level treasure to date.

"Lina, pick that Great Black Iron over here," Zhuge Xiang said to Mo Lingna, his tone firm and tinged with joy.
