War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 2347 Strength Comparable to a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?

When the middle-aged scholar heard the crowd’s question, he shook his head. “I think it’s just a coincidence...”

“A coincidence?”

“How can there be such a coincidence. The finely-dressed old man is called Chen Yi Ru, and he uses a saber as well. Moreover, when he attacked earlier, he cried out, ‘Peerless Saber’!”

“Yes, how can there be such a coincidence in this world?”

“I think... it’s very likely that the old man is Chen Ru Yi or Chen San Dao who was ranked second on the Supreme Saint Ranking 5,000 years ago!”

Many people spoke up and disagreed when the middle-aged scholar when he shook his head and said it was most likely a coincidence. It was acceptable if his name was similar and he used a saber as well. However, for the attack to be the same as well? How could there be so many coincidences?

The middle-aged scholar smiled wryly when he heard people disagreeing with him. “To be honest, I also think that it’s unlikely to be a coincidence. However, according to the records, Chen Yi Ru or Chen San Dao who was ranked second on the Supreme Saint Ranking 5,000 years ago had failed the Celestial Ascension Tribulation 4,000 years ago...”

“He failed the Celestial Ascension Tribulation?”

The crowd was baffled when they heard this. After all, all of them thought failing the Celestial Ascension Tribulation meant death! If Chen San Dao or Chen Yi Ru failed the Celestial Ascension Tribulation 4,000 years ago, then the finely-dressed old man could not be him.

Many people looked at the middle-aged scholar skeptically and asked, “Are you sure that Chen San Dao or Chen Yi Ru from 5,000 years ago failed his Celestial Ascension Tribulation?”

“You can have a look at this...” The middle-aged scholar took out an ancient-looking book that contained the Supreme Saint Rankings from ages ago.

The book clearly recorded that Chen San Dao or Chen Yi Ru had failed the Celestial Ascension Tribulation 4,000 years ago.

Upon seeing this, everyone fell silent.

At some point, somebody asked, “Is it possible that this Chen Yi Ru is a descendant of Chen San Dao? Maybe he’s named after his ancestor?”

“That’s possible! That’s probably why the old man can cast the Peerless Saber...”

Many people nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Chen Yi Ru’s two followers could no longer keep quiet and scoffed in unison.

The atmosphere turned tense immediately.

After a moment, the burly middle-aged man said with a hint of anger, “Our lord is indeed Chen San Dao or Chen Yi Ru who was ranked second on the Supreme Saint Ranking 5,000 years ago! Don’t simply make guesses if you’re ignorant!”

The skinny middle-aged man looked at the crowd disdainfully as he chimed in, “Who says that failing the Celestial Ascension Tribulation means death? You’re all ignorant like a frog living in a well!”

The newcomers knew these two middle-aged men were the old man’s followers were thanks to the survivors. Both of them were at the Eighth and Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage respectively. For this reason, they did not dare to approach the two middle-aged men. When they heard the middle-aged men’s words, they were shocked. All of their hearts, the newcomers and the survivors, thumped wildly in chests

“He’s truly Chen San Dao or Chen Yi Ru who was ranked second on the Supreme Saint Ranking 5,000 years ago?”

“Failing the Celestial Ascension Tribulation doesn’t necessarily mean death?”

What shocked them the most was the skinny middle-aged man’s words. He had said failing the Celestial Ascension Tribulation did not necessarily mean death. They felt as though the door to a whole new world had been opened to them. They truly felt like frogs that had been living in a well.

Everyone shifted their attention to the skinny middle-aged man.

The middle-aged scholar steeled himself and asked, “Sir... did you say that failing the Celestial Ascension Tribulation doesn’t mean death?” Although he did not hear it when the survivors said the skinny man’s cultivation base was at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, he knew as the old man’s follower, the skinny middle-aged man’s cultivation base should be quite high. Therefore, he was very polite and humble when he spoke to the skinny middle-aged man.

When the crowd heard the middle-aged scholar’s question, a hint of excitement could be seen in their eyes when they looked at the skinny middle-aged man.

The skinny middle-aged seemed to enjoy the attention from the crowd as he replied, “Of course! When a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage realizes he’s about to fail the tribulation, he can cast the Soul Detaching Technique to escape! After escaping...” He continued to explain what a Bodiless Celestial was to the crowd. He told them how Bodiless Celestials could not enter another person’s body, how they had to face the Bodiless Celestial Tribulation every 1,000 years, how there were ten tribulations, and how they could only ascend if they successfully passed all nine tribulations. They also learned about the strength of each Bodiless Celestial at each stage.

The crowd, regardless if they were the survivors or the newcomers, was in shock. The skinny middle-aged man’s explanation had opened a door to a whole new world for them.

Bodiless Celestial? They had to face the Bodiless Celestial Tribulations every 1,000 years for 10,000 years? Moreover, during this period of time, they could be killed as well. If they passed all ten tribulations, they would gain a chance to ascend to the Devata Realm?

“As it turns out there are Bodiless Celestials in this world!”

“When Bodiless Celestials have reached a certain stage, they’re comparable to a True Celestial from the Devata Realm!”

“A Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestial is stronger than an Eminent Celestial whom we thought is the strongest in the mundane realm. I-I’m really a frog that has been living in a well!”

Many people sighed when they regained their senses.

The middle-aged scholar nodded as he muttered to himself, “I see. So this is how it is. Based on the time, it’s been 4,000 years since Chen San Dao or Chen Yi Ru had failed his Celestial Ascension Tribulation. This means he has passed four tribulations and is a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!”

Fourth Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!

The survivors finally understood what Chen Yi Ru meant when he said he was a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. Indeed. It was just as he had said. A Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial was much stronger than an Eminent Celestial!

“Duan Ling Tian, the former guardian of the Fire Worship Sect, the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny, and the Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect, is evenly matched with Lord Chen Yi Ru. Does this mean he’s as strong as a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?” Someone cried out at this moment.

Someone said skeptically, “I-impossible. Didn’t Lord Chen Yi Ru say that Duan Ling Tian’s only an Eminent Celestial? As a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, he couldn’t have been mistaken!”

One of Chen Yi Ru’s followers, the burly middle-aged man, said, “Only those who are Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial or stronger are able to tear the void open. It’s impossible for Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestials to accomplish such a feat unless he has Celestial Supreme Treasures or Divine Abilities from the Devata Realm that will help him raise his strength to the level of a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial.” He paused for a moment to look at Duan Ling Tian before he continued saying, “I’m not certain if Duan Ling Tian’s a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, but there’s no doubt the strength he had demonstrated earlier is comparable to a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial...”

Everyone’s eyes automatically shifted to the purple figure hovering about the giant pit in the distance.

“Duan Ling Tian’s strength is comparable to a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?”

...

At this moment, Chen Yi Ru who was lost in his thoughts for quite a long time finally regained his senses. Greed filled his eyes as though there was something he coveted when he looked at Duan Ling Tian. “Duan Ling Tian!
