Chereads / The Hedonist Sword God / Chapter 244 - Split the skies

Chapter 244 - Split the skies

Having experienced being struck by lightning eight times, Jian Shen could tell how strong this ninth strike was.

If nothing unexpected happened, he would die for sure.

Therefore, Jian Shen decided that he would no longer stand there passively and wait for the beast shaped lightning to strike him.

Pulling out the two swords which guaranteed that they wouldn't get damaged even if the went against the ninth heavenly tribulation, Jian Shen flew upwards towards the tribulation itself.

What he did next caused everyone to feel surprised.

Because Jian Shen who went up there used all the techniques in his arsenal to first push the tribulation back while splitting small parts of it.

Instead of taking the force of the entire ninth tribulation at once, Jian Shen was using his hands which had gone numb from fighting against the lightning to split it into smaller pieces.

These smaller pieces together might cause the same damage in the end, but with Jian Shen's body constantly growing stronger due to the Myriad Sword God technique which was using the Lightning Qi that entered him to strengthen his physique, Jian Shen was sure that this was the only way he would be able to survive against the ninth tribulation.

And that's what he did, repeatedly cutting down the tribulation and experiencing the wrath of the entire ninth tribulation in multiple phases, Jian Shen kept on constantly throwing up blood due to his insides being damaged so badly.

At the same time, the more he did this the more Jian Shen found his external body losing its skin and muscles until he was close to becoming a man who only possessed bones.

Seeing all of this, the spectators felt their entire body trembling from just imagining about how bad the pain must be.

As for Jian Shen, all that kept him going was the sheer power of his determination and willpower which didn't want him to lose.

Like this, right when Jian Shen was on the brink of collapsing the terrifying ninth tribulation was finally over due to which he was instantly healed.

This even included one of his eyes and arms that had been destroyed while bearing with the wrath of the ninth tribulation.

Still, this did nothing to ease the tiredness which filled Jian Shen's body.

The tiredness made him feel like once he started sleeping, he would definitely not wake up for at least a few months.

Therefore, even though it might be hard to do so, Jian Shen made up his mind to ascend into the Divine Realm right away.

Raising the Myriad God Sword which had the image of four beasts on it right now, Jian Shen roared loudly to split the skies above him.

Not in the mood to enjoy the golden glow which was shining through the huge slash he just created, Jian Shen hastily flew into it while the barrier which despite being split did the best to try and restrict him.

This was when Jian Shen understood why he needed to experience the heavenly tribulations to ascend successfully.

The barrier which restricted the passage between the two realms did so by inducing pain and damage on those who tried to go either way.

Still, Jian Shen who bore with the ninth tribulation didn't feel anything special as he directly passed through the passage which was gold in colour all over until he exited the passage into the world which was bright white in colour.

That's when Jian Shen lost all of his strength causing his eyes to start dropping while the rest is his body completely stopped moving as well.

As for what the last thing Jian Shen saw, it was the image of a shocked woman who looked like she would kill him while she was covering her naked body.

Looks like the place Jian Shen arrived after ascending was a bathroom, because he ended up interrupting this beautiful woman's bath.

If only he could stay awake for longer and not faint… those were Jian Shen's last thoughts as he drifted into the sweet embrace of sleep which his tired body was craving for.
