Chapter 141: The Blue Silver Emperor's Tribulation!

Ning Fengzhi didn't press Ning Rongrong about how she knew so much about the Divine Realm. As long as this Ning Rongrong was his daughter, that was enough. If she had some secrets, so be it!

Just look at Tang San and Qian Renxue which of them appeared simple? Perhaps this was just a common trait among those who inherited god trials!

"Rongrong, do you think the Blue Silver Emperor can survive?" Ning Fengzhi asked.

"Yeah, I'm quite concerned too. If the Blue Silver Emperor gets reduced to ashes, we'll suffer heavy losses," Bone Douluo chimed in.

Seeing their expectant gazes, Ning Rongrong sighed. "Who knows? The chances of success should be fairly high."

They had already invested so much in it. If it still failed, then it was simply fate.

Besides, they weren't at a complete loss either.

After absorbing Ah Yin's 100,000-year spirit bone and stabilizing his cultivation, Ning Fengzhi had reached the 89th rank.

Though there were still no signs of his Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda evolving into the nine-tiered version, this was already excellent progress.

As for the 100,000-year spirit ring if they lost it, so be it!

Ah Yin's spirit ring had always been an unstable factor anyway.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan didn't have any Soul Douluo approaching the 90th rank in fact, they didn't even have any 80th-rankers.

Moreover, losing it might actually be safer.

Thinking this way, Ning Rongrong felt much more at peace.

Looking up at the thunderclouds, the deafening booms transmitted through the air made their eardrums throb painfully.

"The clouds have stabilized. It seems the tribulation is about to begin." This was Ning Rongrong's first time witnessing a spirit beast endure a heavenly tribulation.

The spectacle was terrifying. Come to think of it with so many powerful beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, how had none of their tribulations been noticed by humans?

"Ah... that might not be impossible either." Ning Rongrong clicked her tongue, considering spirit beasts' lifespans.

With such longevity, even if they underwent tribulations, it was unlikely human record-keepers could preserve complete accounts across tens of thousands of years for future generations.

100,000-year spirit beasts faced tribulations once every thousand years initially, then every 100,000 years thereafter.

Of course, this wasn't strictly tied to age but also to strength.

Powerful enough spirit beasts could trigger tribulations early like the current 100,000-year Blue Silver Emperor, which had reached the threshold after absorbing Ah Yin's power and the gifted spirit herbs.

Successfully enduring the tribulation would make it stronger than ever. Failure would leave nothing behind not even spirit bones or rings.

Spirit beasts were uniquely blessed before reaching 100,000 years, but cultivation grew increasingly difficult afterward.

That Dragon God... what a mess it had made!

Ning Rongrong narrowed her eyes, peering at the forest through her lashes.

A purple lightning bolt as thick as a barrel tore through the dense thunderclouds, crashing downward.

BOOM!

After the deafening explosion, agonized shrieks erupted from the Blue Silver Forest spirit beasts still within the tribulation's range that had failed to escape.

An azure glow gradually emerged, enveloping half the woodland.

The rich vitality caused the charred earth to regenerate rapidly, with even half-destroyed ancient trees sprouting new buds from their wounds.

"That skill..." Ning Fengzhi stared in astonishment.

"Everlasting Life similar to the ability from your spirit bone, but much stronger," Ning Rongrong explained.

"By leveraging its imperial authority over all Blue Silver Grass, the Blue Silver Emperor is maximizing this restorative power throughout the forest."

"It can do that?" Ning Fengzhi marveled.

"Mm. It is the Blue Silver Emperor, sovereign of all Blue Silver Grass." Ning Rongrong smiled. "Honestly, if not for the severe injuries spirit beasts suffer post-tribulation, I wouldn't advise turning against it."

"Fighting the Blue Silver Emperor in its own forest... frankly, Grandpa Bone might not be able to kill it."

"Rongrong, I'm a 96th-rank Title Douluo! With Fengzhi's support, that's equivalent to 97th-rank strength. Add his Mirror Image Copy..."

"Wouldn't that mean one 94th-rank and one 97th-rank Title Douluo? Even that couldn't defeat the Blue Silver Emperor?"

"It hasn't even used its Blue Silver Domain yet. But Grandpa Bone..."

Ning Rongrong trailed off, leaving Bone Douluo's expression darkening.

It reminded him of how Sword Douluo used to retort when mocked about his fifth spirit ring:

"So what if my spirit ring is weaker? I have a domain. Do you?"

Such remarks often left Bone Douluo speechless.

What could he do? Even as a 96th-rank Title Douluo, he still lacked a domain.

Was this the consequence of not absorbing spirit beasts perfectly aligned with his martial soul's attributes?

But spatial and darkness-type spirit beasts were absurdly rare. As an ordinary wandering Soul Master back then, how could he have spent time hunting such exotic prey?

"Speaking of which..." Bone Douluo glanced sidelong at Ning Rongrong.

She was watching the continuing tribulation, oblivious to his gaze.

Rongrong had demonstrated multiple different domains before. To this day, Bone Douluo didn't understand how she managed it.

Back at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, when helping Dugu Yan condense her Misfortune Poison Body, Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasure Glazed Pagoda had displayed a revolving taiji symbol.

That slowly rotating pattern seemed to be a domain.

But as a near-centenarian, asking a junior for guidance was too embarrassing.

Hmph. He'd never hear the end of it from that coward.

In the recordings from three months ago, Ning Rongrong had ingeniously manipulated Ning Fengzhi's Mirror Image Clone to create "Hao Tian's Bane" against Tang Hao.

Not only had she altered the Seven Kill Sword to wield ice and fire attributes, but she'd also imbued it with a taiji-like domain reminiscent of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well plus that never-before-seen Spirit Ring Fusion.

This girl always had new tricks up her sleeve.

At this rate, even if Ning Rongrong somehow learned the Clear Sky School's Spirit Ring Detonation, he probably wouldn't be surprised.

"It can't hold out anymore. As expected, it's resorting to the Blue Silver Domain." Within the forest, the vitality surged further, visibly healing injured spirit beasts.

As a Title Douluo, Bone Douluo naturally noticed this too.

He couldn't help but marvel at the terrifying regenerative abilities of a Title Douluo-tier support.

Above, the rift in the clouds revealed a massive, vortex-like eye, its profound depth causing the surrounding thunderheads to rotate violently. The oppressive pressure intensified drastically.

BOOM!!!

An earth-shaking explosion followed as dark purple lightning several times more terrifying than before, carrying energy capable of annihilating Title Douluos below the 95th rank cascaded down like a waterfall.

The very ground trembled from the impact.

After this strike, the apocalyptic thunderclouds gradually dispersed.

The skies cleared to a cloudless expanse, the previously hidden sun now shining brightly.

A gentle beam of sunlight illuminated the Blue Silver Forest's heart, where only the Blue Silver Emperor remained, its aura fluctuating wildly.

The surrounding Blue Silver Grass had been completely obliterated by the tribulation's fury.
