Fuck me! This is being an exalted emperor?? Li Hao writhed with agony when his numerous future selves came to him, but the star of time within his body quieted down. The young man could vaguely sense that... his death was at hand. Continuously summoning the future was a good idea, but there was no pain, no gain. He seemed to have reached the end of his lifespan. Not only that, but repeatedly breaking the natural order of things seemed to be attracting the chaos tribulation as well. The previous tribulation might not have been a result of combining the corporeal with the immaterial, but the fact that he’d summoned his future self. That was the origin of the calamity. Li Hao wasn’t sure of that conjecture, but he had another answer hovering on the edge of his awareness. I’m... going to die in this battle. The move of one thousand sword daos manifested! It even developed in the direction of stronger sword intent. Li Daoheng darted without a word. He didn’t interfere with Li Hao’s movements, but went straight for the Red Moon exalted emperor. “We need to work together!” Li Daoheng roared. Li Hao had spontaneously strengthened himself to an incredible level. Even if his strength was flimsy and illusory, it was an immensely powerful strength nonetheless. The kid was courting death! Granted, it wasn’t like he had that many chances to survive in the first place. Behind them, Li Hao smiled brilliantly. He was in no hurry as he could sense that the chaos tribulation was nearly upon them. There had been only nine thunderbolts in the previous one. There may be more in this one! It wouldn’t stop until it smote him to dust! ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲·𝗻𝗲𝘁 Li Hao raised his head up to the sky and saw the Star Gate shaking above. Chaos presence was wafting over the threshold. The door couldn’t stop it, even though it was tightly shut. “A chaos tribulation!” The Red Moon exalted emperor’s head ached from the implications. This was his second time seeing a chaos tribulation in one day, fuck! They were in trouble now! Li Hao was the heavenly will and the heavenly will surrounded the world. That meant everyone in Silver Moon was likewise enveloped, so they would have to endure the tribulation as well. Li Hao’s presence billowed commandingly and he declared arrogantly, “Let’s all have some fun together! Li Daoheng, Bone Eclipse, you guys can be my playmates!” A thunderbolt crashed down—the tribulation didn’t bother accumulating its strength this time. It was so much stronger than the last one; Li Hao’s actions seem to have angered it! Three thunderbolts respectively gathered over Li Hao, Bone Eclipse, and Li Daoheng’s head! Celestial Pole swallowed hard; the tribulation was very mighty. It was many times stronger than the first one. All of these guys would be done for if this continued! Why did it seem like they were in a competition to see who was the biggest lunatic?? There wasn’t a single normal person among the three of them! The chaos tribulation was here again. Li Hao smiled; he was in a very easygoing mood. Having experienced the tribulation once already, he had experience with it. Of course, experience was useless all the same. The previous tribulation had been much weaker than the one right now, but the second bolt had obliterated him all the same. If it wasn’t for the power of time resurrecting him, he would be dead. But even so, he was very happy when his eyes landed on the two not far in the distance. The thunder and lightning were swiftly upon them, there was no time to prepare. The thunderbolt struck them simultaneously, containing so much force that it matched the blow of a premier half step emperor. Out of the three of them, Li Hao wasn’t actually the weakest at the moment. The young man remained standing after a grunt. Li Daoheng split the thunderbolt into two after a howl, as did the Red Moon exalted emperor smash through the firmament with one punch. He actually managed to disperse most of the thunderbolt. While it would seem that Li Hao was stronger since he’d chosen to take the blow head-on, that meant he suffered the most out of them. It was also clear to see from this that the three were much stronger than before. They were infinitely close to exalted emperor. Li Hao’s presence had reached that level, but his strength was far too insubstantial. Li Daoheng might even utilize this tribulation to verify his dao as an exalted emperor. Meanwhile, Bone Eclipse wasn’t much stronger than Li Daoheng because he’d been trapped for two many years and had lost two replicas earlier. When it came down to it, the three were evenly matched. They could be viewed as exalted emperors, but they weren’t at that level either. Yet even if they weren’t considered exalted emperors, Bone Eclipse was a bonafide one. Li Daoheng lacked only the baptism of a tribulation, and Li Hao’s presence was on par with one after he devoured his future. The three’s cultivation levels were interesting case studies. “Thank you!” The aloof Li Daoheng suddenly smiled. He was thankful that Li Hao had attracted a tribulation. Although it wasn’t one for an exalted emperor, a chaos tribulation was even stronger. It wouldn’t bequeath any benefits to the cultivator, but Li Daoheng didn’t lack those. He wanted a metamorphosis of his mindset. He was certain that he would be able to ascend as an exalted emperor after weathering this tribulation! Therefore, he wanted to thank Li Hao for giving him the chance to overcome this mental hurdle and officially set foot into the next level. “You’re welcome!” Li Hao smiled radiantly. The first bolt had been peak half step emperor. There would be at least nine bolts, but would it end at nine? Likely no one had ever experienced two chaos tribulations in one day. The second one clearly came from a furious chaos. Hence, eighteen or even twenty-seven bolts wouldn’t be unusual this time. It might also be perfectly normal if it didn’t stop until Li Hao was dead! You’re welcome, Li Daoheng. Perhaps only I know what we’ll experience from this one. Off to the side, Bone Eclipse cursed to himself. I’m so damned unlucky! I was sealed away for one hundred thousand years and often beaten up by the seal. Now that I’m finally free, I’m faced with an overwhelming chaos tribulation. Where’s the justice in this?! Has there ever been such an unlucky invader?? Silver Moon had sealed him away as soon as he entered. He waited and waited until finally encountering a fight among its denizens that turned his way. One of the participants lost his temper as a result of it and released him. But a chaos tribulation appeared in the blink of an eye, and then two in one day! In the outside world, there was no sign of one for several million years sometimes! Logically speaking, there should be no problem for an exalted emperor to reign supreme in a minor world of this level. Now look at this, even an exalted emperor had to duck his head and lay low! The second bolt was immediately among them and much stronger than before. Li Hao still chose to endure it with his body and didn’t make a move. He didn’t defend himself either, just chose to weather it on the basis of his physical body. He didn’t really have one anymore. The entire world was his body. At the moment, the star of time within his body was the definition of quiet. It seemed to be afraid of the chaos tribulation as well. The star of time was an invincible presence, but it’d been shocked twice in short succession today. The first time was the appearance of the Ash Emperor, the second was this chaos tribulation. It sensed something different about this one compared to the previous one. When it came to the first one, even the ninth blow only barely managed to approach the strength of an exalted emperor. That was jointly borne by multiple half step emperors, but Bone Eclipse’s replica was nearly obliterated all the same. This time, the second bolt had already reached the same level of strength. Li Daoheng and Bone Eclipse once more made their moves, choosing to meet the thunderbolt offensively. They were baffled by Li Hao deciding to endure it with his body. Thunderclouds hovered over their heads. Celestial Pole quickly widened the distance between him and the trio. Although Li Hao wouldn’t drag him into the tribulation or cause him to come to harm, he was still very wary of this chaos tribulation. It was too strong! He was just a replica and the weakest among them all right now. His replica would be done for if he was struck a few times. Celestial Pole quickly ran to Number Two’s side. It was awake now and looking at the sky with confusion, then at Celestial Pole. It wasn’t familiar with the man. Number Two had resided within a projection all its life. When it fell in battle, it’d only met the Human King and his companions. He wasn’t familiar with Crown Prince Celestial Pole of the Western Emperor. But it knew of the emperor and could smell some of the emperor’s bloodline on the man. The cat looked at the sky again, then at the people with thunderclouds over their heads. It sensed something familiar from Li Hao and knew that it was this person who’d revitalized it through feeding himself to it. “Meow...” Number Two looked curiously at Celestial Pole. There was no time for the man to rejoice in fulfilling his mission. “This is just a minor world... they’re all crazy!” he muttered with great worry. “Even the Human King probably didn’t think that two chaos tribulations would appear in this rundown place. There’s also the star of time and multiple powerhouses on par with exalted emperor...” There were two uses for this world. One, resurrect Number Two. Two, have the Sword Sovereign devour it. So whether it was the Human King or Exalted Blood Emperor... neither of the two thought much of this world. It would be to this world’s great fortune of many lifetimes if one exalted emperor could be born here, but... was the issue just one exalted emperor now? If Zheng Yu hadn’t died, there would be Zheng Yu, Li Daoheng, and Li Hao for exalted emperors. Who would’ve thought? Silver Moon was a tiny, insignificant speck of dust, but it’d produced three exalted emperors. New Martial might as well split the main world into hundreds of pieces to create hundreds of main worlds. They’d create thousands of exalted emperors then! There was truly some fortune to be had in Silver Moon world. Not only that, but its status seemed to be rising as the thunderbolts pummeled it. It’d already seemed to rise after the last tribulation, that sensation was even stronger now. The entire world seemed to be expanding; the world barrier was growing larger. So this was a side effect of the chaos tribulation?
