Chapter 465: 3,000 Dao Injuries

Geniuses gathered around the head of Sky-crossing Bridge, watching Zhuo Qingyao kneading dough and Chen Ming taking it easy. Yan Shengxiao’s voice dripped with hatred, “Who’d have thought it would come to this.”

Moon Palace’s Crown Prince said, “No one dares interfere with Chen Ming’s tribulation now.”

Jin Xiangyu added, “Under Heavenly Emperor True Martial’s safeguard, there’s nothing we can do.”

Li Suyi and Ling Xian had different topics in mind. Ling Xian rubbed his chin, “Say, third junior brother, you think Master will pass his tribulation after eating head senior sister’s noddles?”

“I reckon Master plans to enter further danger to bolster his will to live!”

“So that’s how it is!”

Li Suyi felt an unpleasant glare. Ling Xian followed Li Suyi’s eye on the other side of the bridge. Ling Xian was always a dunce and cursed, “What ya lookin’ at, huh? Bring it on!”

Both sides were on the brink of erupting, but a light cough from a particular Daoist cooled their spirits.

Chen Ming ate his meal, feeling satisfied. He didn’t even leave the soup, then climbed the mountain.

The top must have the Untold Daos I want!

He went through all the heartaches and pain just for this little thing.

Chen Ming stepped on the 3,000 stairs and a Dao Chain flew right through him.

Chen Ming felt a great change inside. One of his Dao Seed broke!

What is this damn Heavenly Tribulation planning?

Does it want to crush my Dao Seeds?

This climb would turn all his Dao Seeds to pieces!

Chen Ming took another step and a new Dao Chain passed through him.

In his body, another Dao Seed laid in pieces. A sudden pain jolted him. This was from an injured Dao!

A Dao injury couldn’t be treated. His eyes traveled to the cauldron at the top, where the Untold Daos rested.

If I want to pass these stairs, all my Dao Seeds will be in ruin!

Do I continue?

Chen Ming thought it through, “I have enough merits, and once this is over, I’ll also have plenty of spiritual knowledge. At worst, I’ll start anew!”

This Untold Daos came with a prefix aura, his very first!

He might not get another chance.

Chen Ming steeled his heart and pressed on, and with it, a Dao Chain crushed another Dao Seed.

Chen Ming’s lips trembled.

A Dao injury just doesn’t compare.

Chen Ming felt his power waning as another Dao left him.

I cannot control this.

Chen Ming’s every step ended with a Dao Chain wreaking havoc inside.

He never thought this climb would be this long, each step mounting the number of injured Daos.

When the night fell, Chen Yu was about to attack, but Li Suyi and Ling Xian stopped her, “Fourth junior sister, it’s fine now. You just need to watch Master pass his tribulation.”

Li Suyi said, “Master looks like a true reincarnated immortal, an incredibly strong one!”

“Just that Master has a bolder spirit than of a reincarnated immortal!”

“I wonder if Master would look for us if we reincarnated.”

“Won’t he transcend reincarnation at that point?”

Chen Yu said, “Why is Master’s tribulation fraught with Dao injuries?”

Ling Xian replied, “Master is the only one who can climb these stairs. Only he can take 3,000 Dao injuries.”

The old Daoist chuckled, “He’s just like me back in the day. I wonder if he can surmount the greatest threshold and go beyond reincarnation.”

Zi Yu asked, “He’s a reincarnated immortal?”

“Most likely, or he’d never be this eccentric. Only a reincarnated immortal has such an unreasonable power. But who was he in his previous life? Having this power now, in his past life he had to be a Heavenly Emperor. But none of them looked anything like him!

“Even more so when he walks a path similar to that kid Leng Xue. In his past life he trained the ardent saber, and this time the ice saber. If yin and yang combine, will he become an Emperor?

“That kid Leng Xue can’t even beat Wu Fu, but if his ice saber reaches the Immortal King realm, he won’t be any weaker than me. Not when yin and yang harmonize and fire with ice united.

“As for that Zhuo Qingyao, if not a reincarnated immortal, for her first life to be so powerful, when she becomes Immortal King and reincarnates, her next life will have a high chance of surpassing reincarnation.”

Chen Ming looked ahead, Cultivating for all this time was for this moment. I, Chen Ming, won’t admit defeat that easily.

He took out an immortal metal and put it in his mouth, in fear of biting his tongue. When he’d lose Illustrious Casket’s Dao Seed, he’d have no way of getting it back.

Chen Ming bit on it and pushed through.

A Dao Chain pierced him and another Dao Seed shattered.

He didn’t spat blood. This was a Dao injury, a wound of the soul.

His mind spun as if pieces of him were ripped from his very core.

Chen Ming kept at it for a day and reached the 700th step.

Even at night Chen Ming bit on the metal and kept climbing. Each step felt endless to him; as if it took a lifetime.

Did his soul got torn to shreds?

He had no clue, nor did he check. The only thing he did know was to keep moving forward.

Having spent much effort already, if he didn’t take this last step, he felt like it was all for nothing.

Chen Ming kept it up until the break of dawn!

When this Dao Chain passed through him, it brought him to his knees. His body was free of wounds but his soul was torn with a blunt blade.

Just like a saw cut through wood.

Zhuo Qingyao’s heart was in a vice. She was clear on the pain of a Dao injury. But he was now facing thousands of them!

She watched those stone steps with conviction and soon took a step herself.

The oddest thing happened. Zhuo Qingyao was fine. She recalled how her Master told her she didn’t acknowledge spiritual cultivation scriptures and neither do them her.

She was the peak of hardship cultivation, without a iota of spiritual cultivation in her. And these steps before her only affected spiritual cultivation.

Zhuo Qingyao thought of something and rushed up the mountain. Perhaps she could help Master by taking out that item inside the cauldron!
