Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 1555: Woo Yueyi’s Breakthrough

Shi Hao was also astonished.

It was such a coincidence. Just after sending Woo Yueyi out, she woke up and ended her inheritance from the Selfless Immortal Venerable. After so much refining and transformation, she directly accomplished the most critical breakthrough.

She was about to enter the realm of the Immortal King!

The Hongwu Immortal King was both surprised and delighted.

The joy, of course, came from the fact that his beloved daughter could break through to the Immortal King realm. From then on, the Hongwu lineage would have two Immortal Kings. What a grand event!

This was something he never dreamed of. Though his daughter’s martial arts talent was extraordinary, the Jade Immortal was supposed to be her limit. To become an Immortal King was unimaginable!

But now, this scene was happening, leaving him both surprised and delighted beyond measure.

However, what kind of accumulation does a breakthrough to the Immortal King require?

Otherwise, the energy needed is too great; without the supply of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, the whole person would be sucked dry. At that time, fortune would turn into misfortune, leading directly to demise.

How could it be so sudden?

"Quick, move everything from the treasury here!" He hurriedly ordered. Although this was far from enough, it was necessary to make an effort.

Shi Hao smiled, "Father-in-law, rest assured, Yueyi shouldn’t worry about lacking energy."

She had absorbed the Energy Essence of a quasi-Immortal King, which was no small matter and enough to meet the requirement for an Immortal King breakthrough.

After his explanation, the Hongwu Immortal King finally felt a great relief.

Now the problem was the Immortal Tribulation.

The Immortal King’s tribulation was boundlessly terrifying; if not successfully overcome, it meant nothing but death and decay.

Shi Hao’s expression also grew more serious as the Immortal Tribulation could only be overcome by oneself, which even he had no way to assist with.

At this moment, Woo Yueyi cried out softly and suddenly rushed towards the sky.

With a thundering rumble, dark clouds rolled in, and the heavenly tribulation appeared on cue, pressing down in inky darkness, terrifying beyond measure.

This was the Immortal King’s great tribulation.

The entire Hongwu Immortal Domain could feel this terrifying pressure, making everyone shrink back their necks, as if merely peeking out would result in getting charred and battered.

"What level of heavenly tribulation is this?"

"An Immortal, Immortal King’s great tribulation?"

"Gasp, is someone in our Immortal Realm about to break through to the Immortal King?"

"Heavens!"

"Two Immortal Kings in one domain?"

"How splendid would that be?"

"No, this might not be a good thing!"

"Why do you say that?"

"Haven’t you heard the saying, ’One mountain cannot contain two tigers’? If both Immortal Kings want to take the lead, a battle is inevitable. The Immortal Kings are naturally not afraid, but what about us? When the city gates catch fire, the fish in the moat suffer."

"This!"

Many people felt a rise of concern; if the two Immortal Kings were to battle for power and dominance, how many innocents would suffer?

However, at this moment, the Hongwu Immortal King was anxiously worrying for this second Immortal King. He and Shi Hao also soared into the sky, observing from a distance.

Boom!

The first thunder tribulation descended mightily, but Woo Yueyi was incredibly powerful, proactively launching to meet the heavenly tribulation.

This was not arrogance; she truly had such strength. With one palm strike, the force was terrifying beyond compare.

The first thunder tribulation was instantly neutralized, but the second immediately followed, striking down.

Woo Yueyi’s continuous, graceful cries rang out as she ceaselessly confronted the heavenly tribulations, displaying tremendous strength.

Shi Hao nodded; she had inherited from a quasi-Immortal Venerable and also absorbed this quasi-Immortal Venerable’s essence, even though much of it had been burnt away by the Immortal Venerable’s flames. Its power remained terrifying, and combined with her newfound strength in stepping into the Immortal King realm, it was formidable indeed.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The heavenly tribulation was exceedingly terrifying, but only consisted of nine strikes. Once the ninth strike passed, the power of the heavens immediately withdrew.

The tribulation was over!

The Immortal King was crowned!

The Hongwu Immortal King was overwhelmed with excitement. How could he have imagined that his daughter went out once and returned as an Immortal King?

At most, he could think of Shi Hao achieving Immortal King status, but his daughter, she was expected only to become a quasi-Immortal King. But now, Shi Hao had yet to achieve Immortal King status while his daughter had taken this step first.

Great joy, surprising joy, crazy joy!

Woo Yueyi descended, rushing into Shi Hao’s embrace.

She was also very excited.

Over a hundred years, she had been in seclusion for refining, naturally filled with boundless thoughts of Shi Hao. Now, having achieved Immortal King status, she naturally wanted to share her joy with Shi Hao first.

Oh!

The Hongwu Immortal King watched from the side, feeling a bit downcast, not entirely comfortable.

Alas, his daughter was married now and no longer his close companion.

However, he immediately thought of Shi Hao being not far from Immortal King status as well. By then, the Hongwu lineage would have three Immortal Kings, which was astonishing!

This expectation immediately diminished his sense of loss.

The three returned to the Summit of the Stars, where naturally, a grand celebration would follow.

Meanwhile, Shi Hao went into seclusion.

He could now only combine fifty Bright Jade Immortal Rules, but the limit was ninety-nine, so he still had much room for growth.

Woo Yueyi becoming an Immortal King was an extremely significant event, sensational even across the entire Immortal Realm. So, the Hongwu Immortal King sent out invitations to all Immortal Kings in the Immortal Realm to participate in Woo Yueyi’s celebration ceremony.

This naturally required some time for preparation, and it was set for six months later.

Hence, Shi Hao’s seclusion this time was set for a half-year period.

Six months later, Shi Hao came out of seclusion.

In assembling the Bright Jade Immortal Rules, he had reached a height of seventy-six.

However, the more numerous, the more difficult the combination became, and the time spent was greater too. Shi Hao estimated that to reach the ninety-nine limit, even ten years might not suffice.

There was no time to test his combat power; Shi Hao was immediately pulled to attend Woo Yueyi’s Dao-ascending feast.

This time, it was truly a sea of guests, counting the Immortal Kings not by ones but by hundreds.

Among approximately three thousand Immortal Kings, nearly seven hundred attended, elevating his prestige to the sky.

Primarily because of the truce with the Asura Realm, which granted the Immortal Realm ten thousand years of respite, freeing the Immortal Kings to do as they please at leisure.

Otherwise, how could they be so idle?

If so many Immortal Kings left their posts simultaneously, at least half of the Summit of the Stars and Two-Worlds Passage would fall, resulting in significant incidents.

Woo Yueyi was not only the first in ten thousand years to break through to Immortal King, but also belonged to the younger generation. Thus, her attainment of Immortal King status was of extraordinary significance, prompting so many Immortal Kings to grace the event with their presence.

These Immortal Kings also wished to know how Woo Yueyi took this step.

As they said, the martial arts talent of this young girl from the Woo Family was not rumored to be outstandingly superior, so how did she become an Immortal King?

—Among them were those who had spent time with Woo Yueyi in training camps, wondering how someone who was eliminated after just the first year could now overwhelmingly stand out?

Curious! Strange!

These Immortal Kings also brought their offspring and heirs, including exceptional generations such as Hong Tian and Chang Feng, and even superiors like Huang Tianqing. Yet even he was just a Seven-Star Jade Immortal at present, with some distance from a quasi-Immortal King.
