Chapter 505 - 262: Supreme Divine Format, This Person Must Not Be Allowed to Live

The tribulation clouds roiled, and a Divine Power infused with the Cosmic Will swept across the starry sky.

The tribulation clouds continued to brew, growing at an astonishing speed.

Chen Yu stood tall amidst the stars, his entire body radiating a golden light.

His True God Body was activated to its absolute limit, every inch of his skin brimming with boundless Divine Power.

BOOM—!!!

Divine Thunder boomed across the starry sky. The next instant, a torrent of Divine Thunder swept out from the depths of the tribulation clouds.

The Divine Thunder morphed into a mighty army, charging forth to kill.

Divine Thunder Celestial Soldiers!

Each transformed Divine Thunder Celestial Soldier was no weaker than a True God.

The very first wave was meant to be a fatal blow!

Without a hint of evasion, Chen Yu’s figure blurred as he charged straight into the oncoming tide of Divine Thunder Celestial Soldiers.

He unleashed astonishing power using nothing but the pure strength of his physical body.

Sky Dragon Power swept out in relentless waves, instantly routing the Divine Thunder Celestial Soldiers.

Annihilated with a single blow, they reverted to raw Divine Thunder. Chen Yu, like a ravenous beast, absorbed all the thunder from the destroyed Divine Thunder Celestial Soldiers.

He was using the power of the Divine Tribulation to strengthen his physical body.

His physical body had broken through several times now; he could even easily absorb the Divine Tribulation’s thunder, despite it containing the Cosmic Will.

However, this was only the beginning.

With nine waves of the Divine Tribulation, each one would be more terrifying than the last!

This time, however, he had to endure it head-on. For the sake of forming a Supreme Divine Format, he had to persevere even if it seemed impossible.

This was his only chance.

If he failed to form a Supreme Divine Format during his breakthrough to Tier Three True God, he would never get another chance in any future Divine Tribulation.

He brutally blasted apart one Divine Thunder Celestial Soldier after another. Above the Starry Continent, the purple lightning outshone billions of stars, illuminating the entire cosmos.

In deep space, Gu Yuan stood on his Starry Sky Tower Ship, watching quietly.

This method of undergoing a tribulation completely upended his worldview.

’Not using any Law Abilities and just taking it head-on with his body? That’s completely suicidal!’

’This guy is an absolute madman!’

’I wonder what kind of Divine Format he can form... At this rate, it’ll be a Superior Divine Format at the very least... even a Perfect Divine Format seems highly likely.’

The thought flashed through Gu Yuan’s mind.

As for a Supreme Divine Format, he didn’t dare to even think about it.

Throughout history, across billions of star systems and countless races, those capable of forming a Supreme Divine Format were exceedingly rare.

As far as he knew, only one member of the Human Race had ever managed to form a Supreme Divine Format.

That one Great Emperor of the Human Race from the Central Empire!

Even the Great Emperor of the Human Race from the Daluo Star System, a figure as renowned as the one from the Central Empire, had only managed to form a Perfect Divine Format.

Although both had become Great Emperors, the gap between them was immense.

That Great Emperor from the Central Empire was supreme throughout the entire Mortal World.

Anyone who could achieve the rank of Great Emperor was a prodigy among prodigies!

But to form a Supreme Divine Format was to completely transcend the level of a prodigy.

One emperor fighting three emperors!

The battle record of that Great Emperor of the Human Race from the Central Empire was virtually impossible to replicate.

He once faced a siege by three other Great Emperors without falling into a disadvantage.

That alone showed his terrifying power!

Those with a Supreme Divine Format could be counted on one hand across the entire Mortal World.

The mere possibility of transcending the Great Emperor realm was proof enough of the Supreme Divine Format’s terrifying nature.

...

Time ticked by, second by second.

The first wave of the Divine Tribulation seemed able to conjure an endless number of Divine Thunder Celestial Soldiers.

He would destroy one batch, and another would immediately appear.

His physical body had absorbed too much Divine Thunder.

Chen Yu felt like he was about to burst.

Even with his body working at full capacity to refine the Divine Thunder and grow stronger, he still couldn’t keep up with the rate the Divine Tribulation was producing more.

Feeling his body reach a point of intense saturation, Chen Yu slowed his pace of destroying the Divine Thunder Celestial Soldiers. ’This won’t do,’ he thought. ’I have to slow down, or the later stages will be a nightmare.’

’The damage isn’t too severe anyway. I can take it.’

He could use this lull to refine the power of the Divine Thunder he had absorbed.

As long as the Divine Thunder power was absorbed and his body improved, he would be able to absorb even more of the Divine Tribulation’s power.

As long as he didn’t wipe out an entire wave of Divine Thunder Celestial Soldiers at once, he could drag this out longer.

His physical body was covered in lightning.

Every pore of his skin contained the power of the Divine Tribulation’s Divine Thunder.

’What is he doing?’

In deep space, Gu Yuan saw this and was baffled.

Chen Yu seemed to have given up resisting, allowing those Divine Thunder Celestial Soldiers to attack him.

’Even if his body is tough, to do this shows a complete lack of respect for the Divine Tribulation.’

’With all these attacks piling up, isn’t he afraid he’ll fail to block them and just die?!’

’The chances seem slim, but you can’t rule out that one-in-a-million possibility.’

’If he fails to withstand it, the consequences will be dire!’

Watching closely, Gu Yuan soon discovered the truth of the matter, his pupils constricting. ’This guy is absorbing the Divine Tribulation’s power to strengthen his body?!’

’Absorbing the power of the Divine Tribulation to strengthen his body... This guy is insane!’

’The power of a Divine Tribulation, no less—one that’s infused with the Cosmic Will.’

’Absorbing that into his body... Isn’t he afraid of being attacked from within and without, causing his body to just explode?!’

The power of a Divine Tribulation was devastatingly destructive. If it entered the body, one’s Divine Origin, Divine Kingdom, and even Laws would all suffer grievous harm.

’This act is no different from what a madman would do!’

Having cultivated to this level, he couldn’t possibly be unaware of the consequences.

The price was potentially fatal!

’Either he has the confidence to back it up, or he’s a madman... It looks like he must have some method for absorbing the Divine Tribulation’s power.’

’I wonder if this method can be replicated... If it can...’ At this thought, Gu Yuan’s eyes began to gleam.

He decided that after Chen Yu finished his tribulation, he absolutely had to ask.

’I’ll do it, no matter the cost!’

’I’ll offer him a stalk of the Phoenix Divine Flower, a Cosmic Divine Medicine. I refuse to believe he won’t talk for that.’

Gu Yuan’s resolve hardened.

If this method could be replicated, then his own strength would increase by more than he could ever imagine the next time he underwent a tribulation.

And he could also pass it on to the other elders in his clan.

Over time, the cumulative increase in strength would become so great he couldn’t even fathom it.

He might even be able to break his limits.

...

Using this "slowed-down Tribulation Crossing Skill," the first wave of the Divine Tribulation took a full three days to pass.

Chen Yu’s physical body also completely absorbed the power of the Divine Tribulation, ascending to a new level.

His True God Body became even stronger.

’This is fast, and it even increases my chances of successfully forming a Supreme Divine Format. Excellent.’

Although he had suffered "a few" superficial wounds, they couldn’t harm his foundation.

He could recover completely in an instant.

The first wave of the Divine Tribulation passed.

Immediately after, the second wave of the Divine Tribulation descended once more.

Spears of Judgment, Lances of World-Annihilation!

Facing all sorts of unconventional bombardments from the Divine Tribulation, Chen Yu still chose to meet them head-on.

Shatter, improve.

A repeating cycle!

He didn’t hesitate, even if it meant suffering immense damage!

Besides, his physical body had reached a point where he could rapidly recover even from devastating injuries.

Wave after wave of the Divine Tribulation passed.

A full half-month went by.

And Chen Yu’s Divine Tribulation was finally reaching its end!

Resisting head-on with his body, the pressure on him grew greater with each passing wave.

His True God Body had suffered nearly destructive damage.

However, Chen Yu still held on.

After he endured the final assault of the Divine Tribulation, the clouds dispersed. Chen Yu’s body had been pushed to its absolute limit.

His very skeleton was exposed, but his flesh quickly regenerated.

The moment the tribulation clouds dissipated, a vast, golden Divine Light illuminated the depths of space.

It swept across the starry sky.

Behind Chen Yu, a golden, crystal-like Divine Format materialized.

Bathed in the golden light, the Divine Format grew increasingly stable, its aura spreading to engulf the starry sky.

’Is that... a Supreme Divine Format?!’

Gu Yuan’s eyes bulged as he stared, dumbfounded, at the brilliant Divine Format.

A Supreme Divine Format!

He actually managed to form a Supreme Divine Format!

’I’m actually witnessing the birth of someone with a Supreme Divine Format with my own two eyes.’

The scene felt surreal.

Forming a Supreme Divine Format didn’t just mean he was destined to become a Great Emperor; it meant he had the potential to transcend even that realm.

This step was nothing short of an explosive leap in power.

This wasn’t just soaring to the heavens; this was on the verge of breaking through the cosmos itself.

’This is probably the rise of another Central Emperor...’

The thought flashed through Gu Yuan’s mind.

As long as Chen Yu didn’t die, his ascension to Great Emperor was a foregone conclusion.

...

In deep space, the golden Divine Light shone.

The brilliant Divine Format cast a phantasmal image, its boundless Divine Power blanketing the area.

This monstrous aura suppressed everything!

At this moment, in the depths of the darkness, several figures blended almost perfectly with the Dark Deep Space, drifting within a peculiar cosmic rift.

The figures looked toward Chen Yu’s location, their gazes filled with shock.

"A member of the Human Race actually managed to form a Supreme Divine Format!"

"Damn it, how did he deserve to form a Supreme Divine Format!"

"It’s a fact. We have to accept it."

"This child must not be allowed to live!"

"Eliminate him! He must be eliminated!"

"This guy’s strength shouldn’t be low. I’m afraid we don’t have absolute certainty."

"The man just finished his tribulation; he’s injured. We’ll manifest the Great Nether Race Formation. We must kill him, even if it costs us dearly."

"If someone with this potential is allowed to grow, he will definitely be a disaster for our Nether Race in the future!"

"Yes, I agree!"

"I agree as well!"

"Me too!"

"Then, let’s make our move!"

Having reached a consensus, the figures moved through the cosmic rift, rapidly closing in on Chen Yu’s position.

...

’The Supreme Divine Format... I did it!’

Looking at the brilliant Divine Format, a look of joy appeared on Chen Yu’s face.

Even though he had been highly confident of success, at the moment he truly achieved it, he couldn’t suppress the thrill welling up inside him.

It was impossible not to be excited!

With the Supreme Divine Format formed, his future achievements wouldn’t be limited to just the Great Emperor realm.

’I will surpass the Great Emperors!’

The Supreme Divine Format was one of the keys to doing so!

In fact, it was the most important key of all!

Without forming a Supreme Divine Format, it would have been incredibly difficult just to become a Great Emperor, let alone surpass one.

Theoretically, a Perfect Divine Format was enough to become a Great Emperor!

But that was only in theory.

Attaining the rank of Great Emperor with a Perfect Divine Format was far, far more difficult than doing so with a Supreme Divine Format.

Now, this step was achieved!

This was a monumental leap.

This step was a step toward transcendence!

The light retracted, and the Supreme Divine Format entered his body.

It gathered his Divine Power, Laws, and cultivation base!

After forming the Supreme Divine Format, he felt his strength had increased by several times at least.

He didn’t know if he could take on a Tier Eight True God, but he was absolutely confident against anyone below that rank.

’The toll was too great. I need to recover first.’

Coming back to his senses, Chen Yu assessed the toll this ordeal had taken.

The price of enduring it head-on was not small.

He looked fine on the surface, but in truth, his Laws, Divine Origin, and even his Divine Kingdom had all been affected.

At present, he could only exert half of his total strength—and even that would be a stretch.

It was a good thing he had prepared in advance. If he hadn’t been able to endure it, his attempt to form the Supreme Divine Format would have ended in total failure.

Now that he had formed the Supreme Divine Format, it was all worth it.

’I’m injured, but I just need to recover.’

’It’s not a big deal!’

"Hm?"

But just as he prepared to leave, Chen Yu suddenly seemed to sense something, and his expression changed drastically.
