Chapter 359 - 164: The Rising Sun, the Unfallen Sunset (Part 4)
Strictly speaking...
It is Your Excellency the Observer who specially established the planetary space for this moment.
The scene of a Martial God crossing tribulation cannot be easily concealed. Attempting to hide it might affect the final outcome, so a Star Domain lockdown and relocation of indigenous people were chosen instead.
However, it is not necessary for Martial Arts Families of other realms.
Once the tribulation character is formed, it hides in the firmament, and Thunder Star’s sky shows no abnormalities.
But upon entering this Alternate Space, here near the forbidden zone, one can see the vast space intercepted by light screens displaying Ancient Characters on the surface, while above, the tribulation character reappears in the firmament.
At the moment of its appearance, gazes are raised, looking towards the firmament, focusing on the tribulation character.
Voices arise.
"In my youth, I read novels describing tribulation crossing. I never thought at this age I would truly face a tribulation opportunity; such a marvel!"
"Everyone, here is our Tribulation Crossing Land."
"It may also be our burial ground."
"Dying here is worthwhile; future epitaphs could read ’Fell under the heavenly tribulation’, wouldn’t that make the young ones envy us?"
"Meeting together is fate; those who succeed, don’t forget to help clean the graves during festivals."
The sound of exchanges continues.
There is a sense of relief and ease in their tone.
Qin Jin listens quietly, his expression solemn.
The Thunder Star’s peculiar planetary qualities are extraordinarily effective while also carrying risks.
This is not just about quickly engendering the peculiar qualities of the planet, but also thoroughly perfecting them, avoiding many hidden dangers, as it involves life extension, how can it be easy?
These Federation heroes may not have known each other before this event, meeting now for the first time. It seems they are here for prolonging life, but listening to their words, they have clearly understood the relevant information.
Then...
Isn’t this journey also a voyage to death?
After all, they are far from their peak.
Anything unexpected can happen during tribulation crossing.
Ahead.
Gao Xingwen retrieves his gaze from the tribulation character and looks at Qin Jin, then asks, "How should I begin crossing the tribulation?"
"Just make contact with the tribulation character through Spiritual Power."
Qin Jin speaks calmly, pointing forward, "Elder Gao, that area is the Tribulation Crossing Land."
"Alright."
Responding with a word, Gao Xingwen turns and walks directly towards the Tribulation Crossing Land without hesitation.
Behind.
Among the crowd, a voice rises.
"Let me be first."
As the voice rises, a figure prepares to step out of line.
"Best I go first."
Another elder steps out, "Captain Gao, with your strength, wait until we’ve tried. Then you can examine the situation and attempt tribulation crossing; your chances of success increase significantly."
He calls him Captain Gao.
Gao Xingwen doesn’t stop, snorting coldly upon hearing this, "What was said on the way here?"
"Since you voluntarily formed an organization and appointed me as captain, obey orders and wait in the back obediently."
"Everyone needs to come here once, why rush?"
Qin Jin stands not far away.
He can discern meanings within the dialogue.
These Federation heroes, along the route, spontaneously formed a team.
Perhaps, in their hearts, this journey is also a mission issued by the Federation Military Department.
Thoughts pass by.
Gao Xingwen steps into the Tribulation Crossing Land.
His posture is already upright. After entering, with every step, his figure becomes it all the more upright, from afar he grows tall and grand.
Finally, he halts at the center of the Tribulation Crossing Land.
Taking a deep breath, a flash of excitement appears in the eyes of this elder. He reaches out and grasps in the void, brilliance streaks by, a long spear appears in his hand.
The spear is clearly an Extraordinary Weapon, with runes flickering atop, once manifested, held by Gao Xingwen, the shaft trembles incessantly, in this Alternate Space, the sound of a gunshot resounds, filled with excitement and thrill.
"Old friend, who would have thought we would fight side by side again."
Gao Xingwen holds the spear single-handedly, the other hand caressing the shaft. After the initial excitement and thrill, it is replaced by a mournful sound.
"Perhaps this will be our last battle, our last dance."
Gao Xingwen mutters quietly, only he and the spear can hear it, "Perhaps after this battle, I can attain New Life, and you need no longer remain sealed."
"In any case."
"This life has been splendid enough. Compared to growing old in peace, I prefer this moment."
"Perish amidst splendor."
"Either die, or live."
"Old friend, you and I shall fight to our heart’s content!"
The spear dances in the air, held upright.
The Spiritual Power ascends, reaching the firmament, reaching the tribulation character!
The peculiar quality of the Star God is triggered.
Violent Thunder arises beside the tribulation character, in a brief moment, Thunder Power continually ascends, accumulates, some thunder transforms into characters.
Simultaneously.
Below.
At the moment of spiritual contact, Gao Xingwen moves.
His weakened strength reactivates, under the influence, his white hair shows a trend of turning black, grasping the spear, he takes a step with the right leg, the entire body rises like a cannonball.
In the center of attention, as if a domain, boundaries expand rapidly, inside reflecting diverse-colored mirror surfaces formed by strength. On the surfaces, cracks densely spread, whether generated Acquired or existing Innate.
Broken Mirror·Gao Xingwen!
It appears for only a few breaths, the expanded domain abruptly contracts but does not vanish; instead, it clings closely to his Physique, the momentum of strength continually surging.
Qin Jin stands aside, observing earnestly.
The moment this Elder Gao speaks his name, Qin Jin harbors some conjecture in his heart.
Now...
As he truly makes a move, despite his diminished aura, despite no longer being at his peak, Qin Jin can confirm.
He is a...
Celestial Being!
A Celestial Being whose lifespan nears its end, whose body has decayed, yet who has earned countless merits for the Federation!
