Chapter 920
920 the ninth tribulation, severing one’s will!
” near death … weakening of wisdom … collapse of faith … malignant mutation … ”
bai wushang, who was in the ruins, held his breath.
he had always cultivated them painstakingly and tried his best to improve them.
he had never thought that his pet would be targeted by a mysterious enemy overnight.
they didn’t die, but they were crippled.
yingying felt worse than killing them!
for example, ah zhou, who was a natural-born warrior, suddenly found himself useless. this was a huge blow to his self-confidence.
forest soul returned to his original state.
it was timid, afraid of death, and felt that someone was trying to harm it. even when bai wushang came close, it did not dare to respond.
the most heart-wrenching one was the little rabbit.
the light in its eyes was gone, and its body had become fatter. it no longer had any spirituality or divinity to speak of.
the way he looked at bai wushang was simple and silly, but it still carried that kind of simplicity and attachment.
“it’s alright, everything will be fine …”
“don’t be discouraged and give up. you can learn from xing. as long as you’re alive, you’ll have a chance to climb out …”
bai wushang spent a long time comforting his pet.
then, he began a new life.
in the illusionary realm, he didn’t even remember the ancestral dragon court, his elders, or his friends.
he had even forgotten that he had the ability to eat.
he was always alone, going up the mountain to pick herbs and down the mountain to search for treasures.
every time he passed by a large city, he would try his best to gather information, not letting go of any chance that could help his pet.
10 years.
it had been a full ten years.
on the way, cang jiang died of illness, and sen po went crazy and killed himself.
no matter how much pain and reluctance bai wushang felt, when the sun rose, he had to act as if nothing had happened and continue his journey.
he would not give up.
he didn’t want to give up.
since he had chosen to form a contract, in his eyes, it was like a marriage between mortals and had the nature of an oath.
regardless of life, old age, sickness, or death, regardless of wealth or poverty, regardless of what one had to go through.
when the other party needed you, if you abandoned or gave up …
this wasn’t bai wushang’s path to becoming a master.
this went against his original idea of cultivation.
……
on the last day of the tenth year, the sky cracked open.
bai wushang returned to the real world in a daze. when he saw his pets in perfect condition, he was excited and laughed out loud.
“the upper three tribulations, they’re ridiculous …”
“will you suffer from schizophrenia if you do this to me …”
with a whoosh, milky way jumped onto bai wushang’s shoulder. his ears drooped, and his eyes were red.
” master, master, the little rabbit has become an idiot who only knows how to eat all day. how is this possible … ”
“you’re too stupid. this calamity is too fake. how could you be fooled …”
“yeah, how could i be fooled …”
bai wushang rubbed its head affectionately.
“this is” decay,”a super-enhanced version of” decay.””
” the will of heaven and earth is testing my choice in the face of adversity with your misery. ”
” as long as i, the master, am disheartened and leave it alone, when the test is over, the compatibility between man and beast will definitely experience an avalanche-like plummet. ”
” that’s impossible. big lion, big ape, and the others clearly believe you more than you! ”
the little rabbit shook its head like a rattle-drum. ” even if you give up, i believe that master has his own reasons and will definitely avenge us … ”
bai wushang interrupted the little fellow’s mumbling.
“let’s not talk about this anymore. there won’t be such a day.”
” the ninth tribulation is here. the last tribulation might be the easiest to pass. be careful, you can evolve later … ”
as soon as he finished speaking, bai wushang saw six blades of light descend from the sky.
they reflected a white luster, and under the cover of the clear sky, they were clearly not conspicuous enough.
however, the six pets ‘expressions changed. they lowered their bodies in fear and solemness, adjusting themselves to the best posture to exert force.
“boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!”
after six consecutive slashes, bai wushang saw stars.
his soul sea was hit by a mountain-like impact. the five soul power vortexes flew away, leaving an open space in the center.
in the outside world, milky way, ah zhou, xiao ci, sen po, cang jiang, and xing all grunted in unison.
however, after being struck by the saber radiance, their pupils began to crack and recover in an extremely short time.
the ninth sage was called ‘mind severing’.
unlike the previous eight, which were random, this was a fixed test.
it didn’t cut off ‘distracting thoughts’ or ‘evil thoughts’.
instead, it was the invisible but closely connected pet contract between the master and the pet.
their compatibility didn’t even reach three.
one slash … and the chain was broken!
the compatibility was only three.
between the pet and the master, if one of them was not stable, there was a possibility that the contract would break.
therefore, in bai wushang’s team, xing was the last to wake up.
she had followed bai wushang for four years.
but in the end, he wasn’t like the others, who had experienced especially dangerous and complicated things.
his bloodline had not broken through, and he had not fulfilled his promise.
even if he trusted her mentally, he was still lacking in physiological feelings.
of course, bai wushang could tell that it wasn’t difficult for xing to bear it.
her trust in him was still a top priority.
in order to shake the relationship between them and create a crack in their fetters, the power of the “mind severing” would have to be at least tripled.
……
“this … should be enough, right?”
bai wushang’s hanging mood from the beginning to the end slowly returned to his chest with the end of the nine tribulations.
the next step should be for the will of the world to distribute the ‘light of guidance’ and admit that he had the qualifications to visit a higher realm.
the great lord seemed to be only half a step away from him, and only a very simple little ritual was needed …
all sorts of knowledge and information scrolls flashed through his consciousness.
bai wushang raised his head and looked at the sky with anticipation.
however … he waited patiently for dozens of seconds, but there was no strange light or clouds.
the entire sky was darkening at an incomprehensible speed!
it was as if an invisible hand had covered bai wushang’s head, cutting off all his sunlight and hope.
“what … what is this?”
bai wushang’s round eyes were wide open, as if he had been struck by lightning, and his heart palpitated.
he was waiting for the dao fruit of his advancement, but what came to him was a chill that reached his feet.
in the sky, black mist filled the air and ghostly winds howled.
with a deafening thunder, the void collapsed, revealing the shape of a bowl.
then, in a ball of blinding light, a white circular light shadow covered the sky and instantly enveloped the man and six beasts.
“grumble!”
the little rabbit’s fur exploded!
the great lion growled in a low voice, his expression extremely uneasy.
the broken wing angel, xing, opened her light-colored lips and stared at the circular object in shock.
“the … heaven’s eye?”
” you’re … the tenth tribulation!? ”
