With a deafening explosion, the blue Ice Shield made of primordial ice flame shattered, bursting into countless icy fragments that transformed into strands of primordial flame!
Amidst such a fierce assault, thousands of primordial flames caused Tan Yun to temporarily lose control, unable to reassemble!
"Boom—"
With a series of earth-shattering roars, the five heavenly tribulations intertwined and spun like a massive crimson drill, rapidly drilling into the spiritual power sun!
The pale golden spiritual power sun fragmented quickly, and at the same time, the rotation speed of the five heavenly tribulations also slowed dramatically.
Once the five heavenly tribulations became still from their rotation, it would mean that Tan Yun had successfully passed the fifth heavenly tribulation!
"Buzz!"
As the void trembled, when the hundred-zhang spiritual power light sphere exploded, the five intertwined heavenly tribulations, at a slow grinding speed, struck Tan Yun!
"Poof!"
A spray of blood erupted from Tan Yun’s mouth, and he fell like a kite with a severed string, plummeting vertically through the vast void, embedding himself into the surface of the lake, instantly creating a massive splash that soared a hundred zhang into the air!
In the icy cold water, Tan Yun felt his internal organs seemingly shift, his eyes closed as he sank gradually!
"Roar!"
Tan Yun abruptly opened his eyes, filled with indomitable determination. He roared, bursting forth from the lake surface with the splashing waves, standing once more in the vast sky!
If someone were to witness Tan Yun transcending the tribulation in mid-air at that moment, they would surely think he had gone mad!
They would think he was foolish!
Everyone knows that only by stepping into the sacred soul realm can one reach the threshold of transcendence and ascension!
And during the heavenly tribulation in the divine soul realm great perfection, there have been only three choices throughout history!
The first choice is to kneel before the heavens, sincerely utilizing defenses during the tribulation; in this way, the power of the heavenly tribulation would be reduced to eighty percent, a blessing from the heavens!
The second choice is to stand and endure the tribulation; this way, the power of the heavenly tribulation would only be at ninety percent, a gift from above!
The third choice is to transcend the tribulation in mid-air like Tan Yun, suffering the full force of the heavenly tribulation at one hundred percent!
It is known that transcending the tribulation is a matter of life and death, thus almost all cultivators at divine soul realm great perfection choose to kneel during their tribulation!
Those who stand are one in ten thousand!
Let alone someone like Tan Yun who transcends in mid-air!
Would Tan Yun kneel?
No! Of course not. In Tan Yun’s heart, he only kneels to his parents, not to heaven and earth!
As for Tan Yun transcending the tribulation in mid-air, he was merely venting his resentment towards the heavens!
Tan Yun’s personality is such that he will not kneel when he can transcend in mid-air; if he can stand, he will never kneel!
"Come, sixth heavenly tribulation!"
In Tan Yun's furious howl, it was as if the heavens were completely enraged. From the depths of the ten thousand-mile dark clouds, six crimson sacred soul profound thunder tribulations descended like six giant dragons, bringing down collapsing voids, transforming into a three-thousand-zhang profound thunder sword, stabbing vertically toward Tan Yun!
"Roar!"
"Five Elements Shield!"
A beast-like roar erupted from Tan Yun’s mouth as he consumed ten percent of the spiritual power within the spirit pool to unleash the power of the five elements!
In an instant, a surge of gold power, wood elemental power, water power, fire power, and earth power rushed out from within him.
The five elemental powers fused together, forming a brilliant Five Elements Shield that spanned thirty zhang, hovering above Tan Yun's head!
"Bang!"
With a deafening boom, the profound thunder sword of the heavenly tribulation struck the Five Elements Shield, which immediately shattered, and the towering three-thousand-zhang profound thunder sword of the heavenly tribulation instantly became riddled with shocking cracks!
