Chapter 387 - 387: No Breakthrough For You (Part 2)
What was going on with this sudden situation?
Xiang Yu was beginning to panic, as these signs were similar to what one would experience when one encountered cultivation deviation!
While Xiang Yu was feeling bewildered, Han Xin and Lu Bu, who were guarding Xiang Yu, flew over.
They looked at Xiang Yu with confusion and asked, “Xiang Yu, what’s wrong?”
“You don’t look too good. What happened?”
Hearing this, Xiang Yu’s expression turned ugly.”
“Just now, I was adjusting his condition in preparation for my breakthrough, and it was getting better and better.”
“However, 1 suddenly felt something amiss, and actually envisioned the scene of me failing to transcend the tribulation and dying!”
At this point, Xiang Yu’s face turned pale and his body trembled.
He would not allow himself to fail. He had worked hard for thousands of years in order to reach this point!
He could not allow any mishaps to happen!
Although he did not obtain a token, he was still trying to break through to the next realm!
He was 80% confident that he could become a land immortal even without a token. After all, his cultivation foundation was deep and solid.
However, just when he thought that everything would go smoothly, signs of a cultivation deviation had shown up.
This made Xiang Yu, who was originally full of confidence, start to doubt himself.
‘Will 1 really die in the tribulation?’
Seeing Xiang Yu’s wavering confidence, Lu Bu and Han Xin’s faces darkened.
“Why don’t you go talk to the old local deity?”
“Now that he already has the King of Hell Dark Medallion, you can ask him if he’s willing to part ways with the local deity token he no longer needs.”
“Besides, we’ve already betrayed the Netherworld and joined him. It can’t be that he’s not even willing to give us an Immortal Chapter?”
After hearing Lu Bu and Han Xin’s words, Xiang Yu waved his hand and said with a gloomy face, “If he was willing to give it to me, he would have done so long ago.”
“Forget about the Immortal Chapter, I won’t even trust him to guard me.”
“This damned fellow! We shouldn’t have helped him back then, and we shouldn’t have joined him!”
Hearing this, Lu Bu and Han Xin looked at each other.
“What should we do now? How confident are you in succeeding?”
After a moment of silence, Xiang Yu said with a gloomy face, “50-50!”
“If it wasn’t for the sudden cultivation deviation, I would have been 80% confident!”
“Moreover, 1 have a premonition that now is not the time for me to break through. 1 must adjust and stabilize my condition!”
Lu Bu and Han Xin could only nod helplessly.
They had no other choice.
They had offended the Black and White Impermanence Gods, who were connected to the Lord of the Eighteen Hells.
Therefore, they were stuck between a rock and a hard place. Even after joining the local deity, there were not any benefits to be had.
Xiang Yu decided not to act rashly today.
However, just as he closed his eyes again, liquid suddenly splashed down from the sky and landed on his face.
Xiang Yu opened his eyes in anger again and reached out to touch his face subconsciously.
However, when he saw the bird poop on his hand, he was stunned.
He slowly raised his head to look at the dark, blood-red sky and muttered to himself,”
“Heavens! Do you want me to die too?”
“No, I will never die!”
At this point, Xiang Yu’s face twisted.
Then, he closed his eyes again and began to adjust his state.
Elsewhere, Wang Mang had already searched the entire Red Empire, to no avail.
‘It looks like this guy really is undergoing his tribulation in the sea!’
Thinking this, Wang Mang took on his massive form, unfurled his eight wings and soared in the direction of the sea.
The moon was still red, but the blood rain had briefly paused. That being said, while Wang Mang was searching for Xiang Yu, he saw that many people had begun to cough violently.
It was as if everyone had caught a cold. He knew what was going to happen, but there was nothing he could do. The entire world was probably in the same situation.
Wang Mang, could not help but sigh when he thought of this matter.
Soon, he reached the seas. However, frustratingly, he searched from night until dawn, scouring countless sea regions, but still failed to find any trace of Xiang Yu.
“Where are these three bustards hiding?”
At this moment, under the scorching sun, Wang Mang was becoming more and more exasperated.
The weather was pretty good today.
This was the first time Wang Mang had seen the sun appear normally after half a year.
However, Wang Mang was not in the mood to appreciate the good weather.
Just as Wang Mang was feeling dejected, he spotted a huge dark cloud gathering in the distance.
Bingo!
“This is… Lightning tribulation?”
This was likely that damned Xiang Yu was trying to his tribulation, so he immediately activated World Walk and rushed toward the dark clouds in the distance.
A few minutes later, Wang Mang reached the periphery of the region covered by the dark clouds, and spotted an island in the middle of this part of the sea.
The dark clouds were clearly centered around this place, as the sky above this island was basically pitch-black.
Similarly, Wang Mang finally detected the aura of Xiang Yu’s group of three in the vicinity.
After Wang Mang had sneaked onto the island, he saw Xiang Yu sitting cross-legged, as well as Han Xin and Lu Bu, who were guarding Xiang Yu.
Just as Wang Mang was about to make his move, the sound of thunder suddenly rang out in the sky.
The terrifying lightning tribulation condensed in the sky had already descended!
Wang Mang’s face darkened at the sight.
It was already too late for him to stop Xiang Yu from beginning the process!
Fortunately, this guy had just started!
Thinking this, Wang Mang secretly heaved a sigh of relief. At least he was not late!
Then, Wang Mang sneered to himself and muttered in his heart,”
“System, use the Unlucky Card on Xiang Yu again!”
