The heavenly tribulation of the Eighth Tribulation kept descending.
An ancestral weapon's eighth tribulation was equivalent to a ninth-level immortal advancing toward half-step Dao Fruit.
That alone showed.
Just how terrifying the heavenly tribulation's power was.
Every Immortal God who sensed its power had a drastic change of expression.
Even someone as powerful as Qin Shujian.
Now wore an extremely grave expression before the heavenly tribulation.
Although the eighth tribulation merely equated to a ninth-level immortal advancing toward half-step Dao Fruit, that did not mean someone at half-step Dao Fruit could necessarily withstand the heavenly tribulation before him.
It could be said.
The heavenly tribulation posed an even greater threat to him than the Beast Emperor had.
For a moment.
Even Qin Shujian no longer had absolute confidence that the Godslayer Saber could achieve Tribulation Transcendence.
"No wonder no ancestral weapon has ever reached the eighth tribulation in this era. Looking at it now, ancestral weapons may have tremendous potential for growth, giving them a certain advantage over the divine weapons of other eras.
"But truly growing to their limits is no easy task."
Every gain came with a loss. The rules were fair.
Since ancestral weapons had been given the potential for limitless growth, they also faced overwhelming thunder tribulations as a test. Only by surviving those tribulations could they truly grow. Otherwise, they would be reduced to ashes.
To be honest.
Qin Shujian had grown quite accustomed to using the Godslayer Saber.
Ever since his divine weapon from the Third Era had been destroyed, this ancestral weapon had been the weapon that suited him best.
If he simply let the Godslayer Saber be destroyed beneath the heavenly tribulation, it would be a tremendous loss for him as well.
"But—"
"Interfering with a heavenly tribulation is hardly that easy!"
