Legend of the Great Saint

Chapter 1642 - Heavenly Tribulation

At this moment, Wan Jianfeng continued to stand guard outside the Hundred Herbs garden, completely unaware of everything happening inside.

The Hundred Herbs garden already resided in a miniature world of its own, independent from the Human realm. Ruan Yaozhu had activated the Seventy-two Pentads formation too, completely sealing it inside. As such, even tremendous disturbances inside could not be detected so easily.

The time limit of three days drew near. Wan Jianfeng was aware that it was impossible to breach the Hundred Herbs garden with his powers alone. However, Dai Mengfan must have requested for the central authority over the miniature world from the Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance already.

The nine-coloured deer peered towards Ruan Yaozhu in worry with her gentle, moist eyes.

The sixth heavenly tribulation was extremely important to cultivators. This was the step that determined their mortality or immortality, but this step was extremely difficult as well. There were very few cultivators that could make this step successfully.

It was not just because the tribulation lightning would be particularly intense and armaments of tribulation lightning were guaranteed to appear. When the Yang Soul became an Origin Soul, there would be inner demons at work too, which were what buddhism referred to as skandha-māra.

The armaments of tribulation lightning and the skandha-māra, an external opponent and an internal problem, were both extremely terrifying existences.
