Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 236 Heavenly Punishment Warship, Lesser Chaos Tribulation.

In a year and a half, the guild has completed the construction of two super battleships.

The Sky Strike warship was completed more than half a year ago and has already completed sea trials and the configuration of weapons and magical artifacts. It is currently serving in Chu Xinyue's main second regiment.

The reason we didn't give it to the third regiment is because we already have one.

My second brother and sister-in-law, through their connection with Master Mingsu, have purchased a blueprint for a seventh-tier flying star giant ship from the Flying Star Sect and have already built it themselves.

As for the Heavenly Punishment warship, it had been built for less than a month and was currently being equipped with weapons.

Heavenly Punishment Warship: A giant floating warship with unimaginable combat power, capable of traversing from the highest heavens to the deepest ocean, and equipped with magical warship artifacts.

Warship dimensions: 6000 meters long, 800 meters wide, 1000 meters high, eighteen decks, speed of 6000 kilometers per hour, capacity for 12 people.

Warship Attributes: Hull Durability 5 billion, Defense Shield 15 billion, Damage Reduction 50%, Defense Strength 3000, Mana Pool 3 million.

Warship attributes: Players on board receive +50% damage and 50% damage reduction.

Warship Equipment: Can be equipped with 30000 Divine Thunder Towers, 4 Sky Strike Main Cannons, 1 Heavenly Punishment Main Cannon, a large resurrection magic circle, and a long-distance teleportation magic circle.

Long-distance teleportation array: can teleport to cities within 1000 million kilometers, requires anchoring a teleportation point.

Large-scale resurrection array: can resurrect up to 100 people per round.

Heavenly Punishment Main Cannon: Draws upon the earth's ley line energy or mana to condense a powerful beam of light to attack the target.

Attributes: Charge time 15 seconds, damage 5000 million, attack range 200 kilometers, energy consumption 1000 million, attack frequency once every 15 minutes.

Sky Strike Main Cannon: Draws upon the earth's ley line energy or mana to condense a super-powerful beam of light to attack the target.

Attributes: Charge time 10 seconds, damage 1000 million, attack range 100 kilometers, energy consumption 200 million, attack frequency once every 10 minutes.

There are two types of Divine Thunder Towers: the Taiyi Divine Thunder Tower, which has high single-target damage, and the Blazing Divine Thunder Tower, which has slightly lower group damage.

As an eighth-tier warship, it can upgrade the Divine Thunder Tower to the fifth tier at its highest, but due to limited resources, it has only been upgraded to the fourth tier so far.

Taiyi Divine Thunder Tower (Tier 4): Draws earth vein energy or mana to condense lightning bolts to kill the target.

Attributes: Durability 500 million, Damage 60000, Attack Range 40 kilometers, Energy Consumption 2000 points, Attack Frequency once every 15 seconds.

Blazing Thunder Tower (Tier 4): Draws upon the earth's ley line energy or mana to condense into blazing thunder to injure enemies.

Attributes: Durability 500 million, Damage 30000, Attack Range 40 kilometers, Kill Range 200 meters, Energy Consumption 2000 points, Attack Frequency once every 15 seconds.

There are a total of 10000 Taiyi Divine Thunder Towers and 20000 Blazing Divine Thunder Towers.

Upgrading from a Tier 1 Divine Tower to a Tier 4 Divine Thunder Tower requires 360 gold. A total of 30000 towers cost 10.8 million gold, completely draining the guild's savings accumulated over the years.

However, Tier 4 is enough. One shot deals 30,000 damage, and a single round of concentrated fire from a thousand Divine Thunder Towers would result in a terrifying burst of 30 million damage.

Of course, the premise is that you can hit it. Experts are fast, and there is a one or two-second interval between the charging of the Thunder Tower and the attack, which is fast enough to escape.

Therefore, it is basically impossible to use a warship to attack a powerful being above the level of a Loose Immortal, unless the opponent does not move and allows you to bombard them.

With this ship in hand, plus two more Tier 7 warships, the guild finally looks like a regional overlord.

The warship is naturally owned by Su Yu, the chairman, and the vice-captains are Gu Zhiqi and Qi Dongyang. When he is not present, the two of them are responsible for commanding the ship.

After finishing all that, Su Yu finally focused her attention on transcending the tribulation.

First, a batch of cannon fodder magic weapons were retrieved from the guild warehouse, totaling six seventh-tier magic weapons and fifty sixth-tier magic weapons.

Then I sent a message to my second brother, left the guild, and headed straight for Flying Star Island.

After lingering on Flying Star Island for a while, I spent 20,000 gold to buy ten seventh-tier magic weapons, all of which were just cannon fodder of average quality.

He returned to the Xuanzhen Immortal Sect and used up all his sect contribution points in one go to exchange for three seventh-tier magic treasures.

In this way, he now has a total of 20 cannon fodder seventh-tier magic weapons and 50 cannon fodder sixth-tier magic weapons.

Having made all the preparations, Su Yu returned to Mount Xuankong and found her grandmaster. Upon meeting, Master Xuanwei immediately asked:
"Is your grand-disciple preparing to undergo tribulation?"

Su Yu nodded:

"Grandmaster, you are wise. Your grand-disciple has made all the preparations and is ready to trigger the Heavenly Tribulation!"

"It is indeed time to undergo this tribulation."

Master Xuanwei stroked his beard and asked:
"What is the preparation amount?"

"We are fully prepared."

I trust my grand-disciple to handle things.

Xuanwei Daoist suddenly closed his eyes, then opened them briefly and said:
"Your grandmaster has already applied for the Suspended Mountain Tribulation Platform for you. You can go up there to undergo your tribulation at any time this month."

"Grand-disciple thanks Grandmaster!"

This is indeed good news. The Tribulation Platform also exists in the Five Elements Cave Heaven, and all major sects have them, but their effects vary.

The reason Su Yu did not undergo tribulation in the Five Elements Cave Heaven is that the tribulation platform in the Five Elements Cave Heaven has been partially damaged over countless millennia, and can now only reduce the power of the tribulation by 5%, which is definitely not as good as the sect's tribulation platform.

After chatting for a while, Su Yu took his leave.

Back at the cave, only Fifth Senior Sister Jin Qianyue was there. Third Senior Brother was out visiting friends, and Master was nowhere to be found, having wandered off somewhere.

Upon hearing that Su Yu was about to undergo a tribulation, Fifth Senior Sister immediately gifted him a seventh-tier defensive magic weapon. Then, upon learning that he was about to undergo a tribulation, Third Senior Brother Shi Chunan returned and also gave him a seventh-tier defensive magic weapon.

Su Yu knew that her senior brother and sister were not wealthy, so it was very kind of them to offer this.

That evening, Su Yu returned to her residence, opened the control panel, landed on the Xuan Ting Treasure Book, and decisively upgraded it.

A quarter of an hour later, a total of 286 billion killing experience points and 17850 points of cultivation were invested, and the Xuan Ting Treasure Book was successfully upgraded to the 100th level.

"Notice: Your Qi Refining Technique has reached the 100th level, and your cultivation has reached the limit of Qi Refining. You need to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation test. Your Heavenly Tribulation will arrive in 5 days, 6 hours, 41 minutes and 21 seconds."

"Well!"

"After cultivating for so long, I am finally about to face the test of heavenly tribulation."

Su Yu took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.

He was inwardly excited, but his expression remained calm.

休息一晚，第二天出门前往玄真仙城，花了500金购买了10粒能恢复60万法力的下品天灵丹，以及花了1000金购买了2粒能恢复300万气血的万兽灵丹。

After finishing all that, there wasn't much else to prepare. He already had the Primordial Limitless Pill needed for his tribulation.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye. Su Yu received an eighth-order defensive magic weapon from her master, who had just returned yesterday, and another eighth-order defensive magic weapon and five seventh-order magic weapons from her grandmaster. Then, under the watchful eyes of her master, her two senior brothers and sisters, her second brother and sister-in-law Chu Xinyue, Xiao Qingli, and others who had just arrived, she entered the tribulation platform.

As soon as he entered, his grandmaster immediately waved his hand to open part of the array on the suspended mountain to prevent outsiders from entering the tribulation platform and affecting his tribulation.

The Tribulation Crossing Platform is located inside the Suspended Mountain. With the help of the Suspended Mountain's protective array, the damage from the Heavenly Tribulation can be reduced by 10%.

It may not seem like much, but it's actually quite high.

In addition, there is one Primordial Limitless Pill.

Hunyuan Wuliang Pill (top-grade elixir): Health limit +30000, mana limit +30000, health and mana regeneration +100/second, all spell power +50%, damage reduction 10%, lasts for one hour.

There are many pills in the world that can reduce damage, and quite a few are even more effective than the Hunyuan Wuliang Pill. However, only a very few pills are effective against Heavenly Tribulation, and the Hunyuan Wuliang Pill is one of them.

The damage reduction from the pills and the damage reduction from the Tribulation Platform can stack up to a maximum of 20% damage reduction, which is already considered very high.

Sitting upright on the tribulation platform, Su Yu refined all the cannon fodder magic treasures he had prepared beforehand, including two eighth-tier defensive magic treasures, 27 seventh-tier magic treasures, and 50 sixth-tier cannon fodder magic treasures. Then he took off the magic treasures he could not use for the tribulation and equipped them one by one.

Once a magical artifact has been refined, it can be easily replaced; it only requires a single application of magical power to replace it.

Having made all the preparations, Su Yu had a thought and began to trigger the Heavenly Tribulation.

What kind of heavenly tribulation could it be?

The first Great Heavenly Tribulation was divided into three levels. The first level was the Five Elements Heavenly Tribulation, consisting of Geng Metal, Jia Wood, Gui Water, Bing Fire, and Xu Earth, and the Reverse Five Elements Heavenly Tribulation, consisting of Xin Metal, Yi Wood, Ding Fire, Ji Earth, and Ren Water.

Whether it's the Five Elements or the Anti-Five Elements, it's still the Five Elements Heavenly Tribulation, and their power is not much different. The vast majority of middle and lower grade Dao Foundations undergo the Five Elements Heavenly Tribulation.

The second tier is the Mixed Heavenly Tribulation, or the Five Elements Advancement.

Tribulations like the Primordial Golden Thunder Tribulation, the Azure Sky Divine Tree Tribulation, and the Thousand-Mile Fiery Cloud Tribulation are extremely powerful. Generally speaking, only by passing through the second level of heavenly tribulation can one establish a superior-grade Dao foundation.

The third tier of heavenly tribulations, known as super heavenly tribulations, are extremely rare, and each one has a specific name.

Su Yu looked up at the sky. Although the heavenly tribulation had not yet appeared, he had a feeling that he was undergoing the third-level heavenly tribulation, but he did not know which one it was.

However, he wasn't too worried. He figured he could handle whatever came his way, and with his strength and a bunch of powerful magical artifacts, there was no way he wouldn't survive the tribulation.

Sit quietly, close your eyes and relax, adjusting your state and mindset to the best possible condition.

After an unknown amount of time, the sky suddenly brightened, and an invisible wave swept across the suspended mountain. The second brother and sister-in-law, who had come to watch the battle from afar, as well as all the fellow disciples, looked up at the sky as if they had sensed something.

The sky remained unchanged, but everyone sensed something:

"It's about to begin."

In less than ten seconds, the sky began to darken at a visible speed, and a faint pressure slowly appeared, making most of the people in the suspended mountain feel inexplicable pressure and making it difficult to breathe.

"Minor Chaos Tribulation?"

"Oh no, the Primordial Limitless Pill and the Tribulation Crossing Platform are useless now."

Su Yu's face immediately fell.

The heavenly tribulation had not yet manifested, and there were no unusual phenomena in the sky, but Su Yu already knew the name and power of the heavenly tribulation he needed to overcome.

"As expected, it is the top-tier third-level heavenly tribulation!"

The Lesser Chaos Tribulation, also known as the Five Elements Mixed Heavenly Tribulation, is one of the third-tier heavenly tribulations. It is the most powerful heavenly tribulation in the first Great Heavenly Tribulation, without exception.

According to Su Yu's access to military records on the Falling Star Islands using his lieutenant privileges, the Lesser Chaos Tribulation is a Super Grade Immortal Foundation Tribulation. Records show that all those who successfully overcome it have established a Super Grade Immortal Foundation, without exception.

But the prerequisite is that we can get through it.

Because the Lesser Chaos Tribulation is the most powerful first Great Heavenly Tribulation, without exception. There are many historical records of human civilization undergoing the Lesser Chaos Tribulation, totaling hundreds of cases, but less than one-tenth of them have successfully survived it.

"So either you soar to the sky or you fall into the dust."

Su Yu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
"bring it on!"

With a flick of his fingers, streaks of sword energy scattered into the void.
