Volume 1 Chapter 44: The Cultivator Who Couldn't Wait for the Heavenly Tribulation

  Behind these top masters, less than ten meters away, there is a flat round stone over one meter high and more than two meters wide at its widest point.

  Seeing everyone's gaze directed there, Jiang Feng thought that should be the center of this maze formation. If one wants to break through the formation, they probably need to go to that stone over there.

  Everyone looked at the stone, and then they all turned to Jiang Feng. However, Jiang Feng didn't move. It was completely different from the speculation of going forward to break the formation as previously thought.

  "You're still quite clever, knowing your own weight. I thought you were really going to break the formation here." Lan Wu's voice came from beside my ear.

  "Do I look that stupid to you? Look at the cultivators here, they're all restricted by this formation. This must be a very powerful formation. I'm only in the Qi Refining stage, if I were to force my way through, I wouldn't even know how I'd die." Jiang Feng said to himself.

  Then Jiang Feng hehe smiled and sat down on the ground again. He looked at the place where the big stone was, chuckled and said: "Since everyone is safe now, I have enough elixirs here. Let's not touch that formation anymore. Let's wait slowly."

  After finishing speaking, he didn't look at the big stone anymore, but instead turned his head and said to the people who wanted to rob him earlier: "What are you still doing here? Wait a while for these few people's cultivation to recover, what will be your outcome, shouldn't you know?"

  Those cultivators who were originally going to take advantage of the situation had long since thought about leaving. They naturally knew how those top-notch cultivators would treat them when the formation lost its effect. It was just that because Jiang Feng didn't speak up, and no one dared to ask, they didn't dare move.

  Now that Jiang Feng has spoken, these people will no longer hesitate. One by one, they hastily get up and rush into the paths within the maze. At this time, the only option is to flee far away from here. Wait until the formation loses its effect and their cultivation is restored, then immediately charge out of the maze, and there will be a way to survive.

  Those who were going to rob left, and the people sitting around also stood up one after another. It seems that they also wanted to leave here. However, these people did not leave immediately, but instead looked at Jiang Feng all together.

  Jiang Feng also noticed that those people were looking at him. After lowering his head and thinking for a moment, Jiang Feng pulled the cloth bag beside him over, rummaging through it to grab some medicinal pellets while saying to the cultivators around him: "Can't just watch you all waste away here. Each of you take a few. If you see other cultivators who are about to die, give them one too. If you're not enough, you can come back here for more."

  As he said that, Jiang Feng took out a large quantity of elixirs and placed them on the ground. The dozens of cultivators surrounding him immediately swarmed over. Each one thanked him as they picked up several elixirs before quickly leaving the circular area. It seemed these people didn't want to stay here any longer either.

  "These people are all good for nothing, they should all die. Giving them medicine is simply a waste." The young-looking man who was called the old devil said harshly.

  "You think everyone is like you, that anyone who offends you must die, and those you look down on must also die. How could Elder Jiang be with a demon like you?" someone said.

  The man known as the old devil glared at the speaker with his eyes wide open, seemingly eager to go up and beat him up. However, at this moment, they had no cultivation base and were injured, so they could only argue verbally.

  "Alright, you two stop bickering. We old folks have been in seclusion for so many years, if it weren't for this matter, I really don't know if we could've met again. I think there's nothing good to fight about anymore." The elderly man who had previously fought off five people said.

  "Yes, what Bai Lian Dao Zhang said is right. We've lived for too long. This time we didn't gain anything, if we still can't wait for the heavenly tribulation, we're probably all going to die. It's come to this point, there's nothing good to fight over anymore." Another person said.

  As soon as this was said, these top cultivators all became disheartened. Probably only Blood Knife, Yue Zifeng and his brother, Cheng Dong, and Hai Feng didn't have much of a change in mood. That Cheng Dong's master, as well as the Wu senior that Yue Zifeng mentioned, also didn't seem to have any change in expression. It seems that their cultivation was still far inferior to others.

  Jiang Feng felt somewhat puzzled and said, "When your cultivation reaches a certain level, the heavenly tribulation will naturally come. You just need to improve your cultivation and that's all. There's no need to be so worried."

  Several people showed a bitter smile. The White Lotus Taoist said, "Brother Jiang is unaware that our cultivation has already reached the Tribulation Crossing stage. However, the Heavenly Tribulation has yet to arrive. It's unknown whether we'll be able to wait for it before our lifespan runs out."

  "Yes, nowadays in the immortal world, it has been 20,000 years since a heavenly tribulation last appeared. I really don't know what's going on," said the old demon king.

  "What's going on here?" Jiang Feng felt even stranger. But after a moment's thought, Jiang Feng said in a nonchalant tone: "Don't worry about it, wasn't there a heavenly tribulation not long ago? And the person who passed it even ascended to immortality! I'm sure your heavenly tribulation will arrive soon too."

  "It is indeed rumored that someone had transcended and ascended before. However, no one has ever truly seen it. It's possible that someone was just spreading false rumors." said Bai Lian Dao Zhang.

  Jiang Feng tilted his head, with a thoughtful expression, saying: "No, it's true. I've seen it."

  "What? Did Senior Jiang see that calamity?" Those cultivators all cried out in surprise, their faces filled with disbelieving expressions.

  Their shocked expressions startled Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng made a slight movement of retreating backwards, thinking to himself, what's so special about Tian Jie, I've seen many before.

  "Yes, I've seen it before. Someone has transcended and ascended." Jiang Feng nodded and said.

  Those people seemed still somewhat unbelievable. After a few seconds of silence, someone asked: "Is what Elder Jiang said true?"

  Jiang Feng had an expression that said "do I need to lie to you?" and said: "Of course it's true. The one who transcended tribulation and ascended was my senior brother. Before his heavenly tribulation appeared, he was still talking to me. After the tribulation, he also spoke with me."

  Those Taoist priests looked at each other, seemingly still somewhat unbelieving. After a few seconds, Bai Lian Daozhang asked: "I wonder who Jiang Qianbei's Shixiong is, which great man?"

  "This...” Jiang Feng hesitated, his eyes glanced at Yue Zi Peak, then he said: "This is really inconvenient to say for the time being. I have to go back to the sect first. Once I'm back, the news will naturally spread out. By that time, you should know who it is."

  "Your senior brother has successfully passed the tribulation, he should return to the sect in person. But why didn't your senior brother go back, and instead wants you to pass on the message? Elder Jiang wouldn't be looking down on us because we're injured and our cultivation is restricted, would he?" A somewhat rough voice came over.

  As I looked over, at the back of these people, there was a man and a woman sitting there. The man had a rugged face, tall and muscular build. The woman, on the other hand, was petite and delicate, with a pretty appearance. Jiang Feng also noticed that the two of them were slightly farther away from the others, as if they were intentionally avoiding everyone else. Moreover, before this, they had never spoken to each other, always quietly sitting there with their eyes closed.

  "Are you kidding me? I'm so fed up. Believe it or not." Jiang Feng said, rolling his eyes.

  "If it's not him, then tell me your senior brother's name and where he is now." The woman beside the burly man spoke up.

  Jiang Feng didn't even bother to look at them, turned his head away and said: "Nothing to report."

  "Since you won't say, we'll ask ourselves. We also want to see the skills of our seniors." The burly man said as he stood up. The woman beside him also stood up.

  Jiang Feng subconsciously sensed something was off, and just as he looked over at the couple, he saw them both take a step forward. Their bodies actually floated directly towards him. With just this one step, they arrived right in front of Jiang Feng. This clearly showed that their cultivation was still present.

  The man reached out and grabbed Jiang Feng's arm, pulling him up. Jiang Feng, who was sitting there, quickly flipped backwards while trying to throw the dan medicine in his left hand into his mouth. But before he could complete his plan, his body became immobile. The burly man had already grasped Jiang Feng's right arm and lifted him up.

  "Say your senior's name... Ah..." The burly man's words were not yet finished, when he suddenly let out a startled cry. He also released his grip on Jiang Feng's hand.
