Chapter 14
Great Tribulation of High Heavens
Time passed by in a flash!
Three days later, in the massive Zichen Palace, Lin Clan members, led by Lin Tiannan, gathered together. Everyone had a serious expression on their faces, and there was a trace of inexplicable worry in their eyes.
However, there was more fear!
Because today was the day of the Great Tribulation of High Heavens, and the Lin Clan was going to face the test.
If they could pass the test, the clan would be promoted and receive more resources. The strength of the clan members would also skyrocket. However, if they failed, they would be punished.
Their strength would be significantly reduced if that happened!
Then, they would either fail to recover, be annexed by other forces, or walk toward destruction.
Therefore, all the descendants of the Lin Clan had severe looks on their faces.
This day would determine the life and death of the Lin Clan!
...
In the Zichen Palace, Lin Tiannan sat at the head of the table.
“Grand Elder, is everything ready?”
“Yes!”
“To deal with the great calamity that occurs once every five hundred years, our Lin Clan has already started to prepare for it decades ago. Today, we have brought out all our resources.”
“The Lin Clan has one cultivator who has perfected the Wheel of Life realm, three guardians at the advanced stage of the Wheel of Life realm, and eleven other powerful cultivators.”
“There are a total of 15 Wheel of Life realm cultivators!”
“Also, many elixirs for healing and replenishing spiritual power and various divine weapons have been prepared.”
“When the Great Tribulation of High Heavens descends, we can begin,” the Grand Elder replied in a low voice.
His aged face was also filled with unprecedented solemness.
“Clan leader, just in case, why don’t we invite Lin Wudao back?”
He said tentatively.
Upon hearing this, Lin Tiannan sighed and shook his head.
“No need!”
“This is a matter of the Lin Clan. Lin Wudao has already been expelled from the clan and the Lin Clan. He is no longer a descendant. Therefore, everything in the Lin Clan has nothing to do with him.”
“Moreover, even if we had invited him, I’m afraid he won’t return...”
Hearing this, the Grand Elder could not help but sigh.
“Then, can we invite him to help us as a guardian?”
“Ha. You think he’ll return?”
Before Lin Tiannan could say anything, Lin Tianhe, one of the three clan elders, could not help but sneer.
“I think the clan leader is correct. This is our Lin Clan’s business and has nothing to do with outsiders.”
“I don’t believe our Lin Clan can’t survive the Great Tribulation of High Heavens with our decades of preparation,” Lin Tianhe said with complete confidence.
Boom!
His body suddenly trembled, and a powerful aura was instantly released.
Hiss...
Perfection of the Wheel of Life realm.
Everyone was shocked!
Even Lin Tiannan, the clan leader, could not help but look at Lin Tianhe in shock.
No one had expected Lin Tian He have perfected the Wheel of Life realm. In the entire Lin Clan, no one could match up to this level of strength.
“Since the three clan elders have perfected the Wheel of Life realm, we will be able to survive the Great Tribulation of High Heavens this time,” Lin Tiannan praised.
In the face of such a significant event, he did not bother about Lin Tianhe’s concealment of his cultivation.
He took a deep look, stood up, and walked out of Zichen Palace.
The clan members followed closely behind.
...
Boom!
About two hours later, when everyone was still in a state of panic, a loud thunderclap suddenly rang out in the vast sky.
Instantly, a terrifying bolt of lightning struck, and the mighty force tore the void apart.
Whoosh!
An aura that contained supreme might suppressed everything in all directions!
It was so powerful that everyone could not breathe.
“The Great Tribulation of High Heavens has arrived!”
Everyone’s expression was heavy.
At the same time, Lin Wudao, who was far away in Worriless Manor, also cast his gaze in the direction of the Lin Clan.
“Young master, the Great Tribulation of High Heavens has descended for the Lin Clan!”
“That’s right!”
...
Lin Wudao’s expression was indifferent, and there was no change.
“I wonder what kind of test the Lin Clan will face this time. They can pass it safely if they can get the Easy mode.”
“If they were to draw the Difficult mode, they can barely pass.”
“However, if they were to draw the Nightmare or Hell mode, with the Lin Clan’s foundation and strength, their chances of survival are slim.”
“As for the Death mode, no one will survive,” Han Qingshan said with a sigh.
What?
Lin Wudao was surprised that the Great Tribulation of High Heavens had five modes.
“Since ancient times, which is the main mode for the Great Tribulation of High Heavens?”
“This is entirely dependent on luck!”
“During the Great Tribulation of High Heavens, some people drew the Easy mode, some drew the Difficult mode, and some drew the Death mode. The entire force was annihilated.”
“It’s completely random, and I’m not sure.”
...
Lin Wudao nodded thoughtfully.
He did not care about the Lin Clan’s fate and ending.
He only cared about how many people would die in this Great Tribulation of High Heavens.
Then, he would be able to collect their corpses!
...
The Lin Clan naturally had no idea what Lin Wudao was thinking.
The Great Tribulation of High Heavens that occurred once every five hundred years had descended.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
...
Under everyone’s nervous gazes, five brilliant divine lights cut through the void and finally turned into five falling mysterious light balls.
These five balls of light were used to select the test mode.
All the members of the Lin Clan were qualified to vote. They would have a vote if they sent their spiritual power into the corresponding ball of light.
After the voting, the heavens would reveal the answer!
The ball of light with the most votes would represent the type of test that the Lin Clan would face.
Everyone was very clear about this.
“Let’s start!”
Taking a deep breath, Lin Tiannan took the lead and sent spiritual energy into the light ball on the far left.
Seeing this, the rest of the clan members took action.
“I feel that we should follow the clan leader’s instinct!”
“That’s not necessarily true. It’s completely random. The clan leader’s instinct might be wrong at this time. It would be terrible if he had chosen the Death mode.”
“I think one on the right is better.”
“Hmph, I’ll choose the one in the middle!”
...
Everyone was arguing endlessly.
Very quickly, all the members of the Lin Clan had finished voting.
Next, it was time to reveal the answer.
Everyone was nervous and full of anticipation.
Boom!
A moment later, with a heavy sound, the five balls of light in the air exploded, revealing the test mode each ball of light represented.
However, when they saw the final answer, everyone was stunned.
They all crazily sucked in cold air.
Because this time, the Lin family had chosen the Hell mode!
“How is this...possible?”
Someone exclaimed in disbelief.
Their faces were pale!
“Why is it Hell mode? It’s impossible! That’s impossible!”
“No! I don’t believe this is real!”
“We’re finished! Hell mode!”
“The heavens want our Lin Clan to die...”
...
Sounds of fear and despair rose and fell.
At this moment, all the clan members, including Lin Tiannan, revealed looks of fear and their bodies trembled.
Even Lin Tianhe, who had been the loudest earlier, was now pale with fear.
