Chapter 474 Brother-in-law, didn't you survive the Supreme Tribulation? (Second Update)

Hearing Shen Juefeng's words, Zhou Qing was also shocked.

The second uncle frowned slightly: "You survived entirely on your own?"

“Not bad.” Shen Juefeng nodded, his gaze becoming profound. “Years ago, I once obtained an ancient book that contained detailed records of the true mysteries of the Supreme Tribulation.”

"Those seemingly destructive lightning bolts actually contain the power of creation of heaven and earth, which can temper the physical body, cleanse the meridians, and transform the soul, among other endless benefits."

At this point, Shen Juefeng's voice lowered: "At that time, I thought that if I could survive this calamity, it would prove that my life was not meant to end; if I couldn't, I could go to see Qingci sooner."

"Over the years, I have missed her every moment."

Upon hearing this, Shen Lieyang's eyes turned red, filled with self-reproach.

Only then did he realize that his fourth brother had gone through the tribulation with the determination to die.

The root cause of all this lies in his own actions back then.

Shen Yunzhou, standing to the side, hesitated, unsure of what to say. Finally, he looked at Zhou Qing and asked, "Brother-in-law, didn't you also survive the Supreme Tribulation? How did it feel?"

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent, and everyone present turned to look at Zhou Qing.

Shen Juefeng immediately composed himself and looked up sharply: "You survived the Supreme Tribulation?"

Shen Yunzhou then realized he had spoken out of turn and quickly covered his mouth.

Zhou Qing said calmly, "To be precise, that was not the complete Supreme Tribulation. According to Han Yi's judgment, its power was only one-tenth of that of a normal Supreme Tribulation."

"What exactly happened?" Shen Juefeng asked anxiously, his face full of confusion.

How could a cultivator at the Spirit Severing Realm possibly trigger the Supreme Tribulation?
This completely violates the common sense of cultivation!
Zhou Qing glanced at his second uncle first, and the latter immediately understood what was going on.

Zhou Qing continued to explain, "Back when I broke through from the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Realm to the Spirit Severing Realm, Han Yi and others protected me."

"I don't know how the Supreme Tribulation happened back then, but I have to say that I didn't rely on anything. The lightning tribulation was really beneficial to my improvement."

This answer completely shocked Shen Juefeng and Shen Lieyang.

A Nascent Soul cultivator triggers the Supreme Tribulation?

Did they manage to get through it successfully?
Such an unbelievable thing would be hard to believe if one hadn't heard it with their own ears.

Shen Juefeng finally understood why his son-in-law, with his Spirit Severing Realm cultivation, could kill a Supreme Being despite being at a higher level.

It turns out that the potential and strength of a powerful being had already begun to manifest as early as the Nascent Soul stage.

"Is it the Four Flowers Gathering at the Top?" After his initial shock, the Second Uncle quietly asked in a telepathic voice.

Zhou Qing nodded almost imperceptibly: "That's right. The Four Flowers refined all the power of the lightning tribulation, and the energy obtained was beyond imagination. The tempering effect on the physical body was even more amazing."

Upon hearing this, the second uncle's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he had already made up his mind.

"Good!" Shen Juefeng suddenly laughed, patting Zhou Qing's shoulder heavily. "The Supreme Tribulation is extremely dangerous; only the most outstanding talents of our time can reach that stage. You've already had experience with it once."

His expression turned serious: "Although your father-in-law hopes you will be safe, I still have to say that if that day really comes, try not to use the Calamity Relief Diagram."

"The Supreme Tribulation is both a calamity and an opportunity. If you can overcome it on your own, it will greatly benefit your future cultivation. I have learned this lesson from my fight with Bai Fengyin this time."

Zhou Qing nodded thoughtfully: "I will keep my father-in-law's teachings in mind."

"However, it's too early to talk about these things now. I've only been in the late stage of the breakthrough for five years, and I still have a long way to go before I reach the true Supreme Realm."

Although Zhou Qing said this, in his heart it was as if the clouds had parted and the sun had shone through, and he saw a path of cultivation that he had never seen before.

He possesses the "Demon-Subduing Golden Bone" and the "Four Flowers Gathering at the Top" techniques, and is currently cultivating the Purple-Gold Thunder Arc.

These opportunities, which most people would only dream of, have now all come his way. "Perhaps... I really should give it a try then," he thought to himself.

Just then, the second uncle suddenly said loudly, "Since my in-law was able to successfully overcome the tribulation without the help of external objects, how can I be content to lag behind?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Juefeng's expression changed drastically: "Absolutely not! I was prepared to die at that time, and I didn't ask anyone to protect me. I found a secluded place to die alone."

“I understand!” The second uncle raised his hand to interrupt, his eyes piercing. “My mind is made up. On the contrary, I should thank you for enlightening me.”

Shen Juefeng looked anxiously at Zhou Qing, his eyes full of pleading.

The Supreme Tribulation is extremely dangerous. He survived it by risking his life. How can such a lucky escape be easily imitated?
Looking into his second uncle's resolute gaze, Zhou Qing suddenly smiled and said, "I believe in you, Uncle!"

He knew better than anyone else about his second uncle's background—his unfathomable fortune and his extraordinary talent were far beyond what ordinary people could compare to.

Upon hearing this, the second uncle's face immediately broke into a smug smile.

He looked around at everyone and said loudly, "Then it's settled. I'll trouble you, my in-laws, to take care of me in seven days."

"So soon you're about to undergo tribulation? Should we prepare more thoroughly?" Shen Juefeng frowned slightly, his tone revealing worry.

He was filled with remorse for his loose tongue. If something happened to his second uncle because of this, how would he explain it to Zhou Qing in the future?
Uncle Er laughed heartily and waved his hand, saying, "Life and death are predestined, success and failure are determined by fate. What does it have to do with you? Don't worry about it!"

Then she turned to look at Zhou Qing, her eyes softening: "You can decide the location for the tribulation. These next few days, I just want to take Yao Yao around to play and relax."

Zhou Qing nodded in understanding: "Okay."

A single word, yet it conveys complete trust.

Even after the second uncle left, Shen Juefeng was still unwilling to give up: "Are you really not going to try to persuade him anymore?"

But Zhou Qing had already stood up: "Father-in-law, where do you think the third tail is suitable for undergoing tribulation? Why don't you take me to see it?"

Looking at his son-in-law's composed expression, Shen Juefeng sighed, "You two are truly stubborn like two peas in a pod."

……

Seven days later, in a desolate mountain range somewhere in the Third Tail Region.

Zhou Qing stood in mid-air, his gaze fixed intently on the figure sitting cross-legged below.

The second uncle remained silent as a stone, not even setting up the most basic concealment formation.

Despite the bright sunshine, Zhou Qing felt inexplicably nervous.

Originally, Shen Juefeng was to protect the Dharma, but the Second Uncle suddenly changed his mind before leaving: "Put yourself in a life-or-death situation to survive. Having a Supreme Realm expert present makes me feel dependent on him instead."

Left with no other choice, Zhou Qing had to leave his father-in-law and the others at the inn while he accompanied his second uncle to undergo the tribulation alone.

Just as Zhou Qing was still pondering, the sky above the mountains, which had been blazing with sunlight, suddenly darkened.

The second uncle slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, which condensed in the air and did not dissipate, turning into a white ribbon.

He looked up at the sky, his cloudy old eyes flashing with a sharp light.

"coming."

Zhou Qing also looked up and saw that the clear sky had suddenly changed color.

A dark cloud gathered without warning and soon covered the entire sky.

The churning clouds resembled an overturned inkwell, with streaks of ferocious purple-gold lightning flashing intermittently within the pitch-black clouds, accompanied by chilling crackling sounds.

Just one glance sent a chill down Zhou Qing’s spine, making every hair on his body stand on end.

The speed at which the tribulation clouds condensed was far too fast, more than ten times faster than the pseudo-supreme tribulation he had experienced back then!
