Chapter 231: False Immortal Tribulation!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Jiufeng was surprised.

The last time he came to the Martial Temple, there wasn’t any signing in.

This time, he thought that there wouldn’t be any, but he didn’t expect that he would be able to trigger a sign-in opportunity.

What was going on?

“Could it be that when I came here last time, the Martial Temple wasn’t qualified to become a place of signing in yet?” Lin Jiufeng guessed.

This was the only possibility.

After all, the Martial Temple was established by Emperor De in the past few decades. Although it had developed quite well in the past, it wasn’t as famous as it was now. The power of the Martial Temple was in nurturing students.

The interface in the signing-in system said that the Martial Temple was the holy land for teaching.

This was proof.

Lin Jiufeng thought for a while and agreed.

In any case, signing in wasn’t a loss for him.

[Sign-In successful. Received Celestial-Level Comprehension Ability!]

Lin Jiufeng’s eyes lit up.

“This can improve my comprehension ability?” Lin Jiufeng was surprised.

Boom!

A memory entered Lin Jiufeng’s mind. In an instant, he understood this Celestial-Level Comprehension Ability.

After reaching the False Immortal Realm, what one comprehended was the Great Dao of the world. This required comprehension ability.

When some False Immortals started cultivating, their progress would be very fast. But when they reached the False Immortal Realm and started to truly come into contact with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers, the five elements, life and death, these would become very strenuous.

This was the lack of comprehension ability.

It could only mean that when they cultivated to the False Immortal Realm, their progress would become slower in the future, or even being unable to improve at all.

The level of one’s comprehension ability determined the speed of one’s improvement in the False Immortal Realm.

Lin Jiufeng had now signed in the Celestial-Level Comprehension Ability. To him, this was giving him what he needed most.

“If I can’t sign in anymore in the future, I can also rely on my own comprehension ability to improve myself.”

“Now, as I sign in, I can comprehend the Dao of Heaven and Man and make two improvements.”

With this in mind, Lin Jiufeng was in a good mood. He looked at the mountains, the water, and the energetic students around him. He only felt that the world was so beautiful.

“What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly so happy?” The white cat asked curiously.

After entering the Martial Temple, Lin Jiufeng seemed to have changed into a different person. The degree of excitement and joy increased exponentially, making the white cat puzzled.

“Nothing, I just remembered something happy,” Lin Jiufeng replied with a smile.

The white cat was confused. What happy thing was it that didn’t she know about?

She was basically inseparable from Lin Jiufeng, so there shouldn’t be anything about Lin Jiufeng that she didn’t know.

Lin Jiufeng carried the little white cat and walked into the Martial Temple. He looked at the young boys and girls coming and going. He said happily, “Seeing them is like seeing myself back then. Young, beautiful, and inexperienced. They don’t know much about the world, but they are filled with curiosity towards it.”

“That’s true. You are already a hundred-year-old man.” The white cat attacked Lin Jiufeng.

“If I’m a hundred-year-old man, then you are a thousand-year-old cat. I can call you Granny Cat in the future,” Lin Jiufeng countered.

Meow!!!

The white cat called out angrily. Her voice was very loud and she looked at Lin Jiufeng angrily.

“You aren’t allowed to talk about this matter,” the white cat said to Lin Jiufeng solemnly.

Lin Jiufeng decisively shut up.

It was the little white cat who named his age first. When he retaliated, the little white cat couldn’t stand it and strictly forbade him from doing so.

Lin Jiufeng thought of a saying.

Noob but keen on playing!

But there was no other choice. This was his cat. If he didn’t dote on her, who would?

Lin Jiufeng carried the angry little white cat and walked in the Martial Temple.

The students walking alongside him couldn’t see him. The students walking towards him passed through Lin Jiufeng’s body directly without noticing anything.

Lin Jiufeng hid in the void, in a different dimension from reality. This way, no one would see him.

After strolling around the Martial Temple, Lin Jiufeng saw that the atmosphere of cultivation was flourishing. Everyone was working hard.

They might be a genius or even a peerless genius in their respective hometowns.

But when they came to the Martial Temple, they realized that there were so many geniuses in the world, and the strength of these other geniuses was simply unimaginable.

They were geniuses in their hometowns, but in the Martial Temple, they were just ordinary students.

Only by constantly working hard and improving oneself could one rise up among tens of thousands of people.

Hence, the cultivation atmosphere in the Martial Temple was the best.

After walking around, Lin Jiufeng finally arrived at the peak of the Martial Temple and saw the library.

The library was huge. It emptied out a mountain and dug out caves from the hollowed-out mountain walls. Each cave was filled with books. They were divided into nine floors of the library, containing all the good books in the world.

The students entered according to their earned credits. The first and second floors were where they usually went.

The third and fourth floors were places that required a period of accumulation of credits to go to.

The fifth and sixth floors could only be visited once every half a year.

The seventh and eighth levels could only be entered once a year, and each entry only lasted for two hours.

As for the ninth level, the students might not even be able to enter it once before graduation. They needed to make some contributions in order to enter this level.

Lin Jiufeng passed through the first and second floors. It could be said that the place was packed with people, but everyone was quiet. They were reading their own books, and there was only the sound of flipping books.

Some of the students here had seats to sit on. Those who didn’t have seats randomly found a place to sit and immerse themselves in the sea of books.

Lin Jiufeng watched and smiled in satisfaction. Without disturbing these future cornerstones of the Yuhua God Dynasty, he quietly ascended to the ninth level.

There were people on the other floors, but the difference was that there were fewer people. Each person occupied a range of space, and no one disturbed the other.

Only the ninth floor was empty. No one was there.

No one came to the ninth floor where many books were kept.

Lin Jiufeng came to the ninth level and casually picked up a secret manual. He opened it and saw that it was a treasured skill.

The things collected on the ninth level were all very precious. Cultivation techniques, secret manuals, treasure skills, and all sorts of books with stronger authenticity.

“It’s a pity that I already have quite a number of treasure skills. No matter how powerful a treasured skill is, it won’t be too tempting for me.” Lin Jiufeng put down the treasure skill in his hand regretfully.

Then, he came to the other side. There were some things to take note of in cultivation recorded here.

Among them were those regarding False Immortals.

Lin Jiufeng’s mind instantly shook. This was what he wanted.

As he flipped through the books, Lin Jiufeng entered his serious mode. He was like a sponge, constantly absorbing water to enrich himself.

The white cat was also on Lin Jiufeng’s shoulder, watching seriously.

During this process, Lin Jiufeng noticed what he needed to pay attention to in the False Immortal Realm.

“Although False Immortals have touched the threshold of the Immortal Realm, they are definitely not immortals. False Immortals are instead a kind of opportune shortcut. Therefore, although people who enter the False Immortal Realm are at the peak in all aspects, their bodies and Primordial Spirits need to undergo a baptism!” Lin Jiufeng murmured.

What was a baptism?

It can be simply summarized in two words.

Lightning tribulation!

Heaven and earth would give the False Immortals a baptism. Lightning tribulation would descend and strike the False Immortals.

After passing the lightning tribulation, the body and Primordial Spirit of the False Immortal would become even stronger. If the False Immortal couldn’t pass it, the only result was death.

This was a very terrifying process. The world had a very high requirement for immortals, which was why the lightning tribulation descended and gave them a baptism.

“I see,” Lin Jiufeng expressed with emotion.

No wonder he kept feeling that his Primordial Spirit was very heavy and that the world was targeting him. It turned out that he was about to undergo the lightning tribulation.

“The False Immortal Realm requires one to undergo nine stages of lightning tribulation. Each stage represents one level of baptism. I haven’t even undergone even one lightning tribulation yet, I’m not even a False Immortal yet.” Lin Jiufeng finally understood his current realm.

Of course, cultivation realm and combat strength were too different things.

His combat strength wasn’t something that a False Immortal of his realm should have.

“Then, aren’t you going to transcend the tribulation and be struck by lightning?” The white cat looked at Lin Jiufeng and said worriedly.

The lightning tribulation of a False Immortal undergoes was definitely different from ordinary lightning strikes. It was without saying that the might of the lightning tribulation was definitely huge.

“Don’t worry, would I be afraid of this?” Lin Jiufeng put down the book and said casually.

Knowing that he was about to undergo lightning tribulation, he quickly adjusted his mental state.

In any case, he was already so powerful. If he needed to undergo lightning tribulation, so be it. For powerful people, the lightning tribulation couldn’t do anything to them. Instead, it would become a way for them to improve.

To Lin Jiufeng, this kind of baptism was a way to improve his strength.

“Let’s go. After understanding the False Immortal Realm, there’s no need to stay here anymore.” Lin Jiufeng turned around and walked out of the Martial Temple’s library.

It was quiet when they entered and it was the same when they left. Lin Jiufeng didn’t disturb the students.

Although the Martial Temple was bustling, Lin Jiufeng didn’t stay any longer.

The unqualified Mountain Leader, Lin Jiufeng, wasn’t discovered by anyone in the Martial Temple and left quietly.

The Martial Temple didn’t need the appearance of Lin Jiufeng now. Having his name as the Mountain Leader was enough.

Lin Jiufeng needed to return to the Cold Palace to cultivate steadily and stabilize his divine soul.

He felt that his first lightning tribulation wasn’t far away.

This was an extremely serious matter. Lin Jiufeng didn’t dare to be careless at all. Although he was very confident, being confident didn’t mean that he was arrogant.

…

800 miles outside the imperial capital, there was a huge mountain shrouded in white fog all year round. The mountain was steep and there were countless ferocious beasts and demons. The common people didn’t dare to approach it at all. They could only pick up some dead trees and branches at the foot of the mountain to use as firewood.

This mountain was called Burial Mountain. No one knew where this name came from, but it was passed down from generation to generation and couldn’t be changed.

No one knew who was buried on the mountain.

This mountain had been quiet for thousands of years. The ferocious beasts and demons inside never came out, so everyone lived in harmony. No one bothered to explore Burial Mountain.

The people of the world didn’t know that this Burial Mountain was the imperial cemetery of the Taichu God Dynasty thousands of years ago!

This was also a place chosen by the Taichu God Dynasty to seal its descendants.

The Taichu God Dynasty sealed their descendants here, their powerhouses were also sealed here, and their treasures were also sealed here.

They were waiting for the arrival of a new era to restore the Taichu God Dynasty.

Lord Nine was the chosen pioneer of the Taichu God Dynasty for the new era.

Lord Nine, who was at the Void Returning Realm, was a powerhouse to begin with. In the current world, no one could defeat him yet.

The powerhouses of the Taichu God Dynasty peeked into the heavenly secrets in various ways and chose this timing to appear.

They were indeed quite capable.

Because their calculations were quite accurate. At this time, no one in the world could resist the appearance of Lord Nine.

Lin Jiufeng was an exception.

It was impossible for the Taichu God Dynasty to be able to notice Lin Jiufeng and take him into account through peeking into the heavenly secrets. If it wasn’t for Lin Jiufeng, the people in the hidden world wouldn’t have appeared so early.

Without the people from the forgotten world and without Lin Jiufeng, Lord Nine would really be as he said.

He would really be the current king of the world!

Unfortunately, Lin Jiufeng came.

Lord Nine could only die.

As soon as Lord Nine died, the people of Burial Mountain noticed it.

Some people from the Taichu God Dynasty who had already awakened their consciousness but had yet to recover were surprised.

“Lord Nine was actually killed?”

“How is this possible? Who else in the world can kill Lord Nine?”

“That’s right. We deduced more than 9,000 future opportunities before choosing this time period. Lord Nine is at the Void Returning Realm, he shouldn’t have been killed.”

“Even in our era, those at the Void Returning Realm are also powerhouses. How could he be killed so quickly in this new era?”

“To be able to kill a Lord Nine who’s at the Void Returning Realm so quickly, the opponent must be at least at the peak of the Void Returning Realm or is a False Immortal…”

“False Immortal? How is that possible? If this world can accommodate a False Immortal, then we can awaken our old ancestor.”

“No matter what, we have to unseal ourselves. We can’t stay silent like this anymore. We have to investigate Lord Nine’s matter thoroughly.”

“That’s right. No one can kill a person of our Taichu God Dynasty just like that.”

The people of the Taichu God Dynasty began to unseal one after another. No matter what, the death of Lord Nine caused the people of the Taichu God Dynasty to reappear into the world again quickly.

They needed to investigate and take revenge.

In addition, they wanted to rebuild the Taichu God Dynasty in this new era.
