Transcending the Nine Heavens

Half-an-hour had passed. That aperture of green spirit energy trembled again. It was getting denser and denser...

However, Rui Bu Tong was still enduring the torture of his body being torn and bones being crushed amidst the aperture!

But, this stubborn youth had clenched his teeth, and wasn’t making any sound. He knew that his Big Brother and masters would worry if he were to groan even a little!

[I can’t make a sound.]

[They will think that I can still persevere with it if I don’t make a sound!]

It had soon been one hour. And, he had promoted by two grades!

Stealing God and Thieving Ghost looked at each other. Rui Bu Tong had upgraded more than they ever had in one attempt. But, Rui Bu Tong still hadn’t come out yet. In fact, there had been no noise from his side. Was it possible that he could still keep going?

Now... it had been one-and-a-half hours!

The spirit energy in the sky was increasing without letup. Immeasurable amount of spirit energy was rushing over from faraway places, and was gathering here like clouds and winds!

The green aperture started to tremble again when it was about to be two hours. It became denser and spread out... And, he made another breakthrough!

3 hours had passed soon enough!

Stealing God and Thieving Ghost had started to shiver by now. They had despair written over their faces. They nearly wanted to cry, but couldn’t do so! [Bu Tong... why aren’t you coming out now?] Both the Emperor Level Experts were endlessly regretting this now. They were regretting because they had sent their dear disciple in this place of death with their own hands!

There shouldn’t be any hope... after 3 hours...

Chu Yang deeply wrinkled his brows. He was about to move into action. But, the Sword Spirit ferociously stopped him, "Don’t move! Don’t interrupt him!"

"Huh?" Chu Yang gawked.

"Don’t go there!" Sword Spirit said these words, and didn’t say anything further. Then, he put on a solemn look and slowly said, "If I have guessed right... this must be..."

[This must be... what?] But, he didn’t speak any further. He was only in doubt and confusion. He then said, "But, how on the earth can it still be preserved in this world?"

...

Rui Bu Tong’s entire body had distorted inside the aperture....

There came a huge pressure this time. And, the breakthrough brought a lot of pain along with it! In fact, it had seemed as if his whole body would collapse and change into meat-pulp!

The body that had been standing tall and straight until now was slowly being compressed and crooked at this time...

Sounds of bones breaking were continuously coming through. And, blood was violently spurting out of the seven orifices of his head...

An explosive sound of a sudden thunderclap was heard from the dense and converged spirit energy in the sky at this moment. It was a rumbling ’bang’ sound... like that of a thunderbolt! And, the entire Northern Wilderness ferociously tremored in its wake!

The spirit energy that had gathered in the sky suddenly turned purple!

Then, that purple spirit energy was suddenly pressed downwards when everyone was in indescribable shock. And, it then entered this strange battle array.

A majestic voice slowly spoke from the sky over the battle array, "Nirvana!"

The green spirit energy on the stone platform also changed into purple aperture of spirit energy with a ’bang’. And, the range of the aperture suddenly expanded to double! The fire of the purple spirit energy surged up, and ignited the outer part of the aperture. Then, it swept across the entire hall, and burnt the top layer of it. And, it got destroyed as a result...

The flames then surged upwards, and changed one half of the sky to purple.

"Nirvana!" Sword Spirit heaved a sigh, "It is the Nirvana of the Phoenix Race! I had never imagined that I would see this magical formation again in ninety-thousand years! Chu Yang, you don’t need to be worried."

However, Chu Yang wasn’t worried about it anyway. Instead, he was excited and happy. In fact, he had nearly jumped in happiness!

[Rui Bu Tong has had such a fortuitous encounter!]

The Nirvana of Phoenix Race indicated that Rui Bu Tong had received the recognition of the Phoenix Race. Therefore, Rui Bu Tong had nearly become an immortal! And, Chu Yang was simply going crazy with happiness! After all, such an enormous and good thing had happened to his brother!

Meanwhile, he was also doubtful in his heart, [It is possible that Rui Bu Tong has the bloodline of Phoenix Race? What’s it all about?]

Stealing God and Thieving Ghost also smiled in excitement after they had listened to Chu Yang’s explanation. In fact, they had look of relief on their faces now.

...

However, Rui Bu Tong didn’t feel as relieved inside the aperture.

He only felt that a mountain-like pressure was crushing him down! And, down...

Finally, his body couldn’t endure it anymore! The flesh and blood of his right calf suddenly ruptured along with a soft sound! His bone also changed into powder within a split second!

Rui Bu Tong let out a groan of desperation as he fell down on the ground. Then, he surprisingly discovered a purple flame rising up from under his foot. It then started to burn his crushed right calf.

Rui Bu Tong felt severe pain in his soul along with the combustion! In fact, he felt as if his soul was being cut from his body with a knife! [No! This is much more painful than before...]

He tried calling out, but couldn’t.

The purple flame suddenly got merged into him. Then, it vanished. Rui Bu Tong was in acute pain when he suddenly realized that his right calf was still complete!

He blinked with all his strength, and looked at it again. [That’s right. It’s still there!]

However, Rui Bu Tong was at a loss...

[What is this about? It had changed into ashes a short while ago...]

However, a crazy amount of pressure suddenly pressed him down in a ferocious manner while he was thinking this! And, his left calf also exploded in the same way.

Then, the same purple flame again swept up on it...

However, Rui Bu Tong wasn’t startled this time. He only tried hard to endure the world’s cruelest torture, and stay clearheaded.

Right knee! Exploded!

Left knee! Exploded!

Right thigh...

Left leg...

Waist... buttocks...

Then, Rui Bu Tong lower backbone suddenly exploded along with his neck. And, the pain he received was the highest at this time...

Rui Bu Tong’s consciousness became blurry. And, he groaned in pain...

The purple flame swept on his body, and remodeled it!

But, it didn’t vanish instantly this time. Instead, it suddenly ignited his whole body after it had finished the remodeling process.

The spirit energy in the sky suddenly issued a thunderous sound!

That majestic voice again said, "Nirvana~~!"

The entirety of that purple spirit energy in the sky ferociously slammed down with a rumbling sound. Moreover, it had rushed down towards the purple flame on the ground in such a madden manner. And, Rui Bu Tong’s head burst open!

Then, the thick purple spirit energy dashed downwards! It then shrouded his head!

The Purple Phoenix Flame combusted and changed the spirit energy in the circle into a soaring purple fire.

The purple fire soared high up in the sky. In fact, it rose up to ten-thousand feet!

Anyone who’d see this flame could estimate that it was about ten-thousand feet high. But, nobody would know that it was precisely 9990 feet high if measured!

The temperature had also increased. So much so that Chu Yang, Stealing God, and Thieving Ghost had to leave this hall and go about a thousand feet away from here...

However, the marks on Tan Tan’s forehead and chest flashed in a ferocious manner along with those mild golden traces on the tip of his eyebrows when he was rushing back. Apparently... these marks had increased a little in size at this moment...

Tan Tan knitted his brows, and looked at the purple flames that were surging in front of him. Then, a blurring tint flitted across his face. And, he muttered, "It looks very familiar... Why does it feel that I have seen these flames somewhere?"

Then, his whole body fiercely shivered. And, the expression in his eyes suddenly changed into pitch-black. He then unhurriedly said, "Nirvana infuses with the Northern Dipper, and it comes down from the highest heaven. The flames ignite the sky, but precisely up to the height of 9990! Phoenix, you are also in there?"

However, Tan Tan’s accent had become very majestic while he had spoken these words. It wasn’t like his silly talks in the least. Moreover, these short words were filled with the might of a Monarch who looks disdainfully at all the living creatures of the world!

Suddenly, an inexplicable aura of maturity fiercely erupted from Tan Tan’s body. Follow current s on novelenglish.net . Fɪre

But, it disappeared as suddenly the next moment. Tan Tan’s also restored their normal color. Then, he shouted, "Such a big fire!" And, he fled outwards in a terrified manner...

However, his transformation wasn’t seen by anyone.

The large fire remained ignited for 3 hours.

And, Rui Bu Tong remained inside the array for 7 hours in total!

The big fire slowly started to die off. It reduced from ten-thousand feet to a thousand feet... and then to a hundred feet... and then to thirty feet...

Then, it suddenly vanished.

In fact, the flame had disappeared from the hall in a split second; the flame had changed into twinkling stars, and had disappeared without a trace.

Rui Bu Tong’s naked appeared in front of everyone; he was as bare as a newborn baby!

Then, Rui Bu Tong slowly stood up with a perplexed expression on his face. He stretched his body. Then, he walked down while swaying, and took a few steps. However, he had a realization, and couldn’t help but jump in excitement. He burst into loud laughter and exclaimed, "I succeeded. I succeeded... wa ha ha ha..."

Chu Yang, Stealing God, and Thieving Ghost became sullen!

Tan Tan opened his eyes wide, and looked at Rui Bu Tong. Then, he traced the crotch of his pant with his hand. And, he said in an unconvinced manner, "More or less the same."

Rui Bu Tong jumped up, and rushed over to Chu Yang. He pounced over, and excitedly hugged Chu Yang. Then, he smiled and bounced, "Big Brother, I succeeded..."

Chu Yang had already been left dumbstruck. So, he wasn’t guarded in the least. Consequently, the strong and fierce momentum left him to fall on the ground with his face upward!

Rui Bu Tong’s shiny and fair body had pressed his body down. And, the other three people were left to watch his two white and smooth butt-cheeks wiggle...

Stealing God and Thieving Ghost had felt somewhat jealous at first. [Little bastard, I raised you for so many years. But, you went to hug your big brother after you succeeded? Are we lesser to your big brother?]

However, their jealousy disappeared when they saw this extremely unsightly and chilling scene.

They looked at each other, and felt glad in their heart. [Luckily, he didn’t come to hug me first... Otherwise... how the fu*k would I have endured this...]

Chu Yang became furious. And, he firmly patted with a ’smack’ sound. In fact, he had smacked on the smooth butt-cheeks. Then, he shouted, "Get off!"

Rui Bu Tong suddenly felt that something was wrong. So, he touched his own body, and jumped up in surprise, "My clothes... where are my clothes?"

He glanced to the left and right...

Tan Tan stroked his chin, and mischievously smiled, "It is quite sexy..."

Stealing God and Thieving Ghost rushed over, and covered Rui Bu Tong with a robe. This hid the embarrassment of their disciple. Then, the two old men started to beat their disciple, "Little bastard! You scared this old man to death..."

Chu Yang also got up as swiftly as a fish. And, he also joined them in beating Rui Bu Tong...

Tan Tan let out an ’Ahwooh’ as he also rushed over to join them.

...

Rui Bu Tong had become a sixth grade King Level Expert after these breakthroughs. He had become the strongest among his brothers in terms of cultivation. Moreover, his physique had also changed very greatly! In fact, he could rapidly recover even if he were to get cut by a blade...

Moreover, he had become the only one who wouldn’t need to use Chu Yang’s Nine Tribulations Pill to heal his wounds.

This outcome had obviously stimulated Gu Du Xing, Dong Wu Shang, Luo Ke Di, and Ji Mo...

These brothers would get together from time to time over the following two months. Then, they would scatter far and wide... They used to wear their masks in the beginning. However, they had soon discovered that there was no use of wearing these fu*king masks... After all, everyone already knew who they were.

So, what was the use of hiding faces?

[We will blatantly show our identities in the open! This is how we roll, got it?]
