Chapter 516 Broke Through From Heavenly Tribulation
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Bai Zihan kept his gaze fixed on the sky for a few more seconds.The clouds had already dispersed.
The oppressive aura was gone.
The world had returned to an almost unnatural calm.
Just moments ago, that same sky had been preparing to erase him completely.
Now, it was as if nothing had ever happened.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
(Why did it stop?)
Why did it stop without any reason?
Perhaps there was one, though he wouldn't know.
Not like he was complaining, because if it didn't stop, he would have likely died.
For a brief moment, silence filled his thoughts.
Then he exhaled slowly.
A long, deep breath.
The tension in his body eased just slightly.
Relief washed over him.
He had truly thought he would die.
His fingers loosened slightly around the hilt of his sword.
Then tightened again.
Because what followed that relief was anger.
His gaze lifted once more toward the now-clear sky.
"Just because your chosen one couldn't kill me..."
His voice was low.
"...you interfere? You want to kill me because your minion can't?"
A faint killing intent flickered in his eyes.
Directed not at any person, but at the heavens themselves.
He wanted to curse.
But he stopped.
His expression darkened slightly.
(Tch!)
He clicked his tongue inwardly.
(Better not.)
Who knew what excuse Heaven might use next?
If something like that tribulation came again under the pretense of
"punishment" or "insult"-
Even he would not survive a second time.
Slowly, he lowered his gaze.
Calming himself.
Suppressing that surge of defiance.
Now was not the time.
Without another word, Bai Zihan raised his hand and retrieved several pills from his storage ring.
Their fragrance spread faintly in the air.
Grade-5 healing pills.
Without hesitation, he swallowed them.
The medicinal power spread through his body almost instantly.
But his brows furrowed slightly.
His body was healing far slower than it should have been.
The wounds inflicted by the Heavenly Tribulation seemed to slow his healing
effects.
Even after taking healing pills, he was healing very slowly. It was slower than his normal healing effect without any pills.
His meridians still burned.
His flesh still throbbed.
The charred marks on his body barely showed signs of recovery.
Bai Zihan remained standing in silence as the effects slowly circulated.
His breathing steadied.
"System!"

One good thing that came from this was that he was able to break through to
the Top Void Refinement Realm.
Of course, it was unintentional, as he was just trying to defend himself and ended up absorbing part of the Heavenly Tribulation because of his physique.
But it was a positive outcome from this whole ordeal.
Moreover, he felt that there should be good rewards for dealing with Chong
Sheng,
[Unclaimed Rewards Available]
Resist Heavenly Tribulation Achievement: [ Primordial Chaos Body Refinement
Technique - Second Part]
"Huh?"
There was no reward for defeating Chong Sheng as he had expected.
He didn't know why.
Perhaps Chong Sheng was still not considered defeated, or-
(Do I have to kill him?)
Bai Zihan thought.
Well, whether he had to kill him or not for the reward didn't matter for now.
He first needed to extract as much information from Chong Sheng as possible.
But instead of a reward for defeating Chong Sheng, he got one for resisting the Heavenly Tribulation.
The second part of the Primordial Chaos Body Refinement Technique.
It was indeed a timely arrival, as he had already achieved the first part of the Primordial Chaos Body Refinement Technique.
He claimed the reward, but his expression changed when he saw the
requirements.
More specifically, the materials needed for the second part, most of which were above Grade 7.
He was pretty sure that some of those materials weren't even available in the Desolate Heaven Empire.
Then there was the core of an Immortal Realm demonic beast, which was also
difficult to obtain.
But because of the previous Demonic War, there were a few in the Bai Clan that he could access.
Still, refining his body further wouldn't be as easy as the first part.
Because of what he had just experienced, he was eager to grow stronger. He had thought his survival was guaranteed after becoming this strong, only to
be given a harsh reality check.
There were still many things in this world that could take his life as easily as
crushing an ant.
He realized once again that his life wasn't as secure as he had previously
believed.
Then his gaze shifted slightly toward Chong Sheng.
Chong Sheng was still in a daze from the Heavenly Tribulation and how it had
abruptly stopped.
He felt a gaze on him.
Now that even Heavenly Tribulation couldn't kill Bai Zihan, it seemed his hope
of escaping had vanished.
Chong Sheng's dazed expression slowly faded as Bai Zihan's figure approached.
He forced his dry throat to move.
"What do you want?"
His voice came out hoarse, but steady.
There was no longer panic in it.
He had already accepted death once before.
But now, there was chance.
A slim one but a very strong one.
Bai Zihan had not killed him.
Now he knew very well that Bai Zihan is more than capable of killing him but he
chose not to.
That alone told Chong Sheng something important.
(He needs me.)
Or at the very least-
(He wants something from me.)
Before that, he didn't think Bai Zihan would kill him.
"Tsk! I went through a lot to capture you. You better be useful, otherwise—"
Bai Zihan said begrudgingly.
It was certain that Chong Sheng would have to deal with Bai Zihan's anger if he
wasn't worth it.
Despite his injuries, Bai Zihan managed to block Chong Sheng's meridians,
/p>
ensuring he wouldn't be able to escape. "Now, let's have a proper chat, shall we?"
