After passing the Nine Tribulations, the next challenge was the even harder Ten Difficulties.
The Nine Tribulations and Ten Difficulties totaled nineteen trials, a number that implied they were more terrifying than the Eighteenth Layer of Hell.
Each of the Ten Difficulties was unusual. The first was the difficulty of birth.
Hua Yunfei felt as though he had become an unborn child. His will grew hazy, his Magic Power vanished, and he seemed to have truly become a newborn.
Suddenly, a violent impact shook him. It seemed his mother had met with an accident, and the blow to her abdomen put her at risk of miscarriage.
If she miscarried under these circumstances, he would fail the first trial.
But Hua Yunfei's will remained intact. His Indestructible Divine Soul was unaffected by the will of the trial, allowing him to use some of his Magic Power.
Thus, he successfully protected himself.
He passed the first trial with ease.
The second trial was the difficulty of illness.
Hua Yunfei became a patient suffering from an incurable disease, with little time left to live.
The third trial was the difficulty of old age and illness.
Hua Yunfei became a decrepit old man, standing at the end of his life.
The fifth trial was the difficulty of love.
Hua Yunfei fell in love with someone, but both their parents did everything they could to stop them. They were in love, yet could never be together.
The seventh trial was the difficulty of cultivation.
Hua Yunfei embarked on the path of cultivation, beset by hardship at every turn. It took him twenty years just to break through Channel Opening Realm and enter Core Formation Realm.
The ninth trial was the difficulty of proving the Dao.
A universe allowed only one Great Emperor.
