Chapter 211: Chapter 210: Jiang Li’s Battle to Break Through the Transcendance Tribulation Stage

Translator: 549690339

“Holy Maiden.” The elder and his disciples showed their reverence upon seeing the Pure Heart Holy Maiden.

Both in terms of cultivation and prestige, the Pure Heart Holy Maiden could have long since been the Sect Hierarch. When it came to reality, major and minor affairs of the Red Dust Holy Land were also managed by her. The only difference between the Pure Heart Holy Maiden and the Hierarch was the title.

When not considering Jiang Li, the Pure Heart Holy Maiden was a competent captain.

“What is this?” The Pure Heart Holy Maiden was perplexed upon seeing the barrier formed by the opened peach tree. She had never seen the Immortal Tree use such a spell before.

Through the overlapping pink petals, she could faintly see Jiang Li and the ancestral master inside.

“Jiang, the Human Emperor, wanted to spar with the ancestral master. As they both have shocking combat power, the Immortal Tree opened the barrier to protect us.” The elder explained.

This elder was a beautiful woman, whose youth had been worn away by time. With a beauty mark near her mouth, every frown and smile wielded a unique charm that would make her popular in the outside world.

However, she was only considered average in the Red Dust Holy Land.

Before long, the barrier disappeared, revealing two figures.

“Your body and soul have not yet been fully integrated. Try not to take any action before that.” Jiang Li suggested.

Their battle didn’t last long and wasn’t intense. However, the fairy of Red Dust began to pant heavily. It was obviously abnormal.

“Oh.” The fairy of Red Dust pouted, considering Jiang Li’s advice for her.

“If you want to go out and play, I can accompany you.” Jiang Li suggested. “No, I need to adapt to my body.” The fairy of Red Dust declined Jiang Li’s suggestion.

“No, I need to adapt to my body.” The fairy of Red Dust declined Jiang Li’s suggestion.

Jiang Li could only express regret. Actually, he didn’t really want to accompany the fairy of Red Dust. He just wanted to use her as a cover to go out and play himself.

“From the looks of it, you’re still one step ahead of the ancestral master?” The Pure Heart Holy Maiden handed the fairy of the Red Dust a gourd while smiling. The gourd was filled with soul-stabilizing spring water. From their expressions, she could easily guess who won and who lost.

The fairy of Red Dust drank the water with a ‘gulp gulp’ sound, totally devoid of feminine reserve.

Jiang Li twitched at the corner of his mouth: “Don’t you teach her manners?”

The fairy of Red Dust was a blank slate. She would learn whatever others taught her. If they didn’t teach her, she would just do whatever she wanted.

Sometimes, Jiang Li found it subtly strange when the childish behavior of the mature-bodied fairy of the Red Dust showed.

“She didn’t learn.” The Pure Heart Holy Maiden had tried to teach her, but she just refused to learn. What could she do about that?

She couldn’t resort to physical punishment when she didn’t learn, could she?

She’ll understand when she grows up, the Pure Heart Holy Maiden could only comfort herself with this thought.

“How about we spar as well?” The Pure Heart Holy Maiden thought sparring could shorten the distance between them.

Jiang Li squinted at the Pure Heart Holy Maiden, wondering why she was so deluded about her own capabilities.

Seeing Jiang Li remain silent, the Pure Heart Holy Maiden took his silence as agreement and drew out the Twelve-Rank Green Lotus.

Worthy of mention, this was her lifebound spiritual treasure, intimate and responsive to her thoughts. It wouldn’t be affected by the beauty of the fairy of Red Dust, otherwise the intelligent spiritual treasures would lose control upon witnessing her beauty, wishing to serve and possess her.

Back when the Yin Yang Heaven Seal sold various spiritual treasures in the past, many spiritual treasures in the Red Dust Holy Land beheld the beauty of the fairy of the Red Dust, and they lost control, wanting to venerate and possess her.

Fortunately, the fairy of the Red Dust awakened at that time and suppressed these spiritual treasures. Therefore, the situation didn’t get out of control.

The Twelve-Rank Green Lotus bloomed, emitting a deep blue light, capable of silently dissolving everything.

This gentle power concealed a dangerous threat. A slight misstep could cause the enemy to be defeated.

However, this was only effective against opponents in the Body Integration Realm.

Jiang Li twisted his right hand, showcasing the way of Yin and Yang, turning the destructive light into purifying light, promoting growth and development of all beings, devoid of any offensive power.

This was the way of Yin and Yang that Jiang Li recently learned from fairy of the Red Dust.

“This move of yours is quite strong among the Body Integration Realm practitioners. Even Zhang Konghu might not be able to withstand it.” 𝘧𝓻ℯ𝑒𝑤𝓮𝒷𝓷𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝓬𝓸𝓂

Jiang Li could tell that the Pure Heart Holy Maiden had reached the pinnacle of the Body Integration Realm and possessed great potential. Just one life-and-death struggle would allow her to surpass her limit and she could enter the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

However, he did not know what could become the catalyst for her breakthrough and when or where it could happen.

Or maybe there would be no catalyst in her lifetime.

To break through the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, one needed not only talent but also luck.

“Still not enough, still can’t compare to you when you were in the Body Integration Realm.” The Pure Heart Holy Maiden was discontent with her current state. She wanted to become stronger, to reach the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, to become immortal, to reach the Mahayana Realm.

If Jiang Li was to go to the Immortal Realm, she would be able to keep up with him.

“You could fight evenly against two warriors in the Transcendance Tribulation

Stage when you were in the Body Integration Realm!” The Pure Heart Holy Maiden didn’t think she was at the peak of the Body Integration Realm, she could only last several rounds with someone in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. This was far from Jiang Li’s achievement when he was in the Body Integration Realm.

“You can’t compare with me.” Jiang Li stated flatly.

“Back then, I was equipped with the power of sentient beings’ wishes, and barely had the power to fight with two rivals in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. If I hadn’t broken through the Transcendance Tribulation Stage later on, the one who would have eventually lost was undoubtedly me.”

Before Jiang Li took the throne, upon the death of the previous Human

Emperor, there was a grave feud between the Wuguo’s monarch and the Qingtian Sect’s Hierarch. Their feud finally exploded, culminating in a battle to the death.

The monarch of Wuguo, by means of the power of his nation’s fate, temporarily advanced into the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. The Qingtian Sect’s Hierarch was already in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. Thus, commencing a duel between the two Transcendance Tribulation Stage warriors.

Unexpectedly, the two began their battle in the mainland of Jiuzhou. One can only imagine the staggering death toll. The phrase ‘rivers of blood’ wouldn’t begin to cover it.

A mother could be seen clutching her dead child’s arm in pain and a child pushing at his mother’s corpse, a young girl cried out in the deserted streets for her grandfather…

Behind this battle, there was endless separation and tragic stories.

To reduce casualties, Jiang Li, who was only in the Body Integration Realm, was determined to hold them off until another warrior in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage could arrive. He had to hastily take the throne, using an unfamiliar power of faith, i.e., the power of sentient beings’ wishes, to join the battle.

Due to the lack of a formal ceremony for assuming the throne, the power of faith could not be used properly. Jiang Li was almost burst apart by the unruly power of faith.

According to the recollections of the onlookers, Jiang Li was glowing red with swelling all over his body during that time. It was as if he could explode at any moment. People cried out, urging Jiang Li to run. They said that their deaths didn’t matter, but the newly grown Human Emperor shouldn’t fall here. It wasn’t worth it.

The ultimate fate of the Human Emperor was to face the Heavenly Demons from outside the realm, not to be caught in the infighting of humanity. The people preferred to be killed by these two bastards than to see Jiang Li die here.

Ignoring their cries, Jiang Li fought with his life on the line, but was still not the match for the two. He was cornered.

Only in such circumstances, did Jiang Li finally break through the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, turning the tables.

Seeing that he was no match for Jiang Li, the Hierarch of Qingtian Sect used evil techniques, sacrificing the entire sect to consolidate his power. A once brilliant ancient sect vanished, leaving only the robes of its disciples.

Yet still, he could not overpower Jiang Li and in the end, both of them were killed.

Disregarding that battle, Jiang Li, at the peak of his Body Integration Realm, could indeed fight a Transcendance Tribulation Stage adversary for a hundred rounds, making him somewhat stronger than the Pure Heart Holy Maiden.

But Jiang Li’s strength lay not within his mana, but within his tactics against enemies, his understanding of spells, their usage, and his versatility during a fight.

For instance, during a battle, Jiang Li could create new spells on the fly, so much so that even Bai Hongtu would acknowledge his prowess. Such things couldn’t be taught, but only comprehended..
