Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 842 Trash Heavenly Tribulation, why can't you kill him!
"The next one is the Heavenly Tribulation of 500,000 years. Its power is already comparable to that of a Limit Douluo. Be careful."

Xue Di stood on Jiang Ming's shoulder and whispered a reminder.

The previous tribulations were alright; they didn't reach the limit of power, and for Jiang Ming's physical body at its limit, the power below the limit posed basically no threat.

However, this five-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation corresponds to a five-hundred-thousand-year-old ferocious beast. This is already the power of someone who has just entered the Limit Douluo level. We can no longer take it lightly.

"Ah."

Jiang Ming nodded.

The heavenly tribulation wouldn't joke with him. The 500,000-year-old ferocious beast tribulation would be of great benefit to his body tempering, but if he couldn't withstand it, he didn't want to spend another year or two in a wheelchair.

Moreover, under the tribulation of lightning, he might not even have a chance to lie down for a year or two; the possibility of him being completely annihilated is much greater!
He hasn't lived enough yet; if he were to waste his life and die, that would be too much.
Jiang Ming closed his eyes, his aura surging around him.

He is adjusting his physical condition.

Moreover, he is about to use powers beyond his physical strength.

He was at the limit of his physical body, and the 500,000-year heavenly tribulation was also at the limit level. Limit against limit, even if the 500,000-year heavenly tribulation was only the initial step into the limit level, he still had to play it safe.

It's time to use your Martial Soul!
"Tsk, you're already done for? You're supposed to be a powerful figure who could fight me to the death, and you're already chickening out? It's just a 500,000-year tribulation, I easily passed it when I went through my own tribulation back then!"

The evil lord's voice traveled through the iceberg to Jiang Ming's ears.

The Evil Lord's power was frozen by the iceberg, so he couldn't affect the surrounding area, but he could still do some things within the iceberg's range.

For example, transmitting a message to someone on the iceberg.

Unfortunately, Jiang Ming wouldn't allow anyone else to come up the iceberg, so he couldn't use his remaining strength to bewitch one or two simpletons.

"What happened?"

Jiang Ming's eyes remained closed. Hearing Xie Jun's mocking remark, he simply responded with a single sentence.

So what!
The Evil Lord's provocation was so obvious that Jiang Ming remained completely unmoved.

"you!"

The evil lord was speechless, choked by these three words of truth.

The only way to express one's emotions is through the constant contraction and dilation of the pupils in one's large eyes.

Upon hearing the two's brief yet confrontational words, Xue Di's beautiful face revealed a smile.

"Come on, say a few more words, I'm bored."

While the Evil Lord remained silent, Jiang Ming spoke again.

The moment he opened his mouth, he angered the evil lord so much that he didn't want to speak anymore.

"Hey, hey, you called me a coward? Well, you're the coward first, too scared to even speak. And you call yourself the Evil Lord? Really!"

Adjusting his physical condition is something Jiang Ming doesn't need to do at full strength for now.

He could even ask the Snow Empress to help him adjust his physical condition, since he and the Snow Empress were already one soul, which was entirely possible.

"you you you you!"

The evil lord was so angry that his eyes were practically spitting fire!

If looks could kill, Jiang Ming would probably have been torn to pieces by now.

Unfortunately, it's not possible.

Even if the Evil Lord's eyes could shoot fire, they wouldn't ignite inside the iceberg unless it were an extreme form of fire.

"Alright, you've cultivated for 800,000 years. Be more mature, more composed, and more level-headed. You're at least hundreds of thousands of years old. How come your mentality isn't as composed as mine, a young man in his twenties?"

Since the Evil Lord was speechless, Jiang Ming took the initiative to start a conversation.

But the Evil Lord clearly didn't want to fall for it, so he simply kept quiet.

"Yes, please respond!"

Jiang Ming patted the ice under his feet, which was right in the center of the Evil Lord's pupils.

no respond.

"Sigh, Evil Lord, you're about to die, why don't you say a few more words, or perhaps your last words? Maybe if you cooperate a little when I kill you later, I can help you finish your last words."

For example, which promising descendants do you have in the Demon Forest? Your Evil Eye Tyrant clan has a strong bloodline; perhaps hundreds of thousands of years from now, another Evil Eye Tyrant ruler will emerge. Don't you think so?

"Hey, having lived for hundreds of thousands of years, have you ever seen anything particularly memorable? Why don't you tell me? You've been keeping these things bottled up anyway, so tell me, and I can chat with you for a bit."

Jiang Ming's little mouth was chattering away, leaving Xue Didu completely stunned.

Xue Di directly transmitted her consciousness into Jiang Ming's consciousness through the fusion of their souls.

"You really want to chat with him?"

Jiang Ming nodded and answered directly, "That's right, he's going to die soon anyway. When someone is about to die, we should treat them kindly. Talk to them and ease their resentment. If they die with resentment, they won't be able to rest in peace."

Xue'er, you know me. I'm kind-hearted and can't bear to see someone die with their eyes wide open. Besides, the Evil Lord is going to provide me with a 900,000-year soul ring. What's a little chat with him?

"Don't you think so, Evil Lord?"

As he spoke, Jiang Ming even patted the ice surface.

Evil Lord: "."

To be honest, he regretted saying that at the beginning.

Damn it, he just said that Jiang Ming wouldn't dare to use his physical body to withstand the 500,000-year Heavenly Tribulation, and this kid's mouth just spouted something like "dying with his eyes wide open!"
Although he might die with regrets, please don't say it out loud! I only had this feeling before I died, but now it's starting to spread.

This calamity will last for another ten days to half a month!

The evil lord's pupils contracted and dilated rapidly, and it took quite some time for them to gradually calm down.

Finally, the Evil Lord said this.

"Jiang Ming, are you really not going to consider letting me become your soul spirit? If I become your soul spirit, my role will definitely be greater than a simple 900,000-year soul ring! Aren't you at the limit of your physical body right now? You even need to use the tribulation lightning to temper it to be comparable to a god's body?"

If you let me become your spirit, with my soul's blessing, I am very confident that while your physical strength approaches that of a god, I can also bring your soul close to the level of a god!

In this way, even if your divine assessment is extremely difficult, you will definitely pass it with ease!

He still wanted to save himself.

Having lived for so many years, he really didn't want to die!
Moreover, if she really becomes Jiang Ming's soul, Jiang Ming is a successor of a god!
Once Jiang Ming becomes a god, he can also take a shortcut to enter the realm of gods!

It can be said that the two possibilities now facing the Evil Lord have reached an extremely cruel extreme.

If Jiang Ming were to make him a spirit, he would take off on the spot and obtain a ticket to the God Realm.

If we don't let him become soul power, he'll go straight to hell!
There wasn't even a third option left, since the heavenly tribulation had already arrived.

Even if Jiang Ming gives up on killing him, this lightning tribulation will still strike him dead!
Moreover, what he said actually makes a lot of sense.

If Jiang Ming kills him directly, he will only get a 900,000-year soul ring and a soul bone.

But if he becomes a spirit, the benefits he can bring to Jiang Ming will definitely be even greater!
As the second-ranked of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts, he has not lived these hundreds of thousands of years in vain. In particular, his attainments in spiritual power and soul are so great that he dares to say that even Di Tian may not be as strong as him!

"Hmm, keep going, say more, maybe I'll fall for you."

Hearing Xie Jun's words, Jiang Ming nodded in agreement.

He could even sense that the Snow Empress seemed to be wavering. "Jiang Ming, perhaps..."

Xue Di sat on Jiang Ming's shoulders and spoke softly.

Indeed, turning the evil lord into a spirit is the choice that maximizes profits.

"Look, even the Snow Empress agrees with what I said, Jiang Ming. Let me become your soul spirit, and I will absolutely cooperate! Really, I will absolutely cooperate!"

Seeing that even the Snow Empress had been persuaded, the Evil Lord immediately spoke with some excitement.

Seeing the Evil Lord's excited expression, Jiang Ming smiled.

"Absolutely cooperate. Evil Lord, you say absolutely cooperate, but why should I believe you? You almost killed me right there in the Sun Moon Empire! You even chased me all the way to the Valley of Love and Destiny. If I hadn't been lucky, I would have died at your hands. Tell me, why, and on what grounds, should I believe you?"

To be honest, what Xie Jun said was actually very tempting; didn't you see that even Xue Di was somewhat swayed?

As a spiritual beast with 800,000 years of cultivation, he absolutely believed that the Evil Lord had a way to further enhance his soul and spiritual power, even to the point of approaching the level of a divine soul!

No, there's also the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and even Electrolux, one with a true million-year spiritual power, and the other with a true divine soul level.

As long as the evil lord cooperates, even if the soul cannot be fully formed, it can definitely come infinitely close!

According to the Evil Lord, after his physical body underwent the tribulation of lightning, it approached the divine body; after his soul underwent an upgrade, it approached the divine soul; and after absorbing the Evil Lord's soul ring, his soul power cultivation might directly reach the level ninety-nine limit.

In an instant, he could stand at the pinnacle!

It is no exaggeration to say that he is the number one person below God.

But Jiang Ming just didn't want to do that.

Because he doesn't trust the evil lord!
If it were before that competition in the Sun and Moon Empire, or before the last time he went to fight the Evil Lord and the battle was so fierce, given his personality, he would most likely have agreed.

At that time, he and the Evil Lord did not have a direct conflict. Even after the conflict arose in the western suburbs of the Sun Moon Empire, it was not impossible for him to agree.

However, after those two experiences, his mindset has changed.

That incident in the western suburbs of Mingdu marked the beginning of a blood feud between him and the Evil Lord!

While battling the evil lord at sea, his hatred didn't increase, but the consequences made him somewhat afraid.

During that time in Mingdu, he relied on his strength and acted without any restraint in the Sun Moon Empire. At that time, even the most powerful Dragon Emperor Douluo and Death God Douluo in the Sun Moon Empire were no match for him. Not to mention the Soul Masters, he knew the top Soul Masters like Kong Deming and Jing Hongchen all too well.

However, that time, that ambush in the western suburbs! If his clone hadn't been outside and nearby, he really would have been worn down to death by the Soul-Devouring Box!

Is he arrogant?
Of course it's wild!
Since entering Shrek Academy, he has been virtually invincible!
Even though he was a time traveler, and even though his mind was more mature than his physical age, as time went by and as his invincible momentum grew, he became arrogant!
He rose to fame at a young age and dominated his peers, even fighting against himself and the referees, in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament!

Shouldn't they be arrogant?
Actually, things were alright back then, because he still had some self-awareness. At that time, he was only crushing his peers, and there were still people in the world who were stronger than him.

But as he overpowered both the Dragon Emperor Douluo and the Death God Douluo, he knew that his strength had reached the pinnacle of the world!

In his early twenties, he became the strongest!
He was, of course, arrogant and dismissive of everyone.

Then he was locked up by the Soul-Devouring Box, controlled by most of the ninth-level soul masters in the Sun Moon Empire. Soul tool, evil soul master, soul beast.

The Sun Moon Empire used every force at its disposal to kill him!
Moreover, it was just a tiny bit away from success!
That crisis caused a real change in his previously understated but persistent arrogance.

However, things hadn't really changed by then, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to spar with the Evil Lord alone to seek a breakthrough.

Moreover, as the fight progressed, they got carried away and what was originally a friendly sparring match turned into a life-or-death battle.

Then, he clashed with the will of death once again.

That was indeed an accident; after all, no one could have predicted the terrifying act of slaughtering the Ice Sea.

But overall, after experiencing all of this, his heart did indeed calm down, or rather, become more stable.

If it were just him, he might still be able to continue acting recklessly.

But now, not to mention Sister Lexuan and the others, even those who are with me, such as Xue Di, Xiao Yu, Rong Rong, and the elves.

If he dies, these people will perish with him.

Moreover, he was just one step away from becoming a god and achieving his ultimate goal.

A secure and stable life is right here; to gamble at the last minute is a risk that outweighs the potential reward.

So, he refused!
This is not the time to risk your life; there's no need to do so.

After saying this, Jiang Ming stopped talking and focused on adjusting his state of mind.

The next ferocious beast, five hundred thousand years old, is coming soon. Let's get through it first, and then we can talk about other things.

The interval between these heavenly tribulations was longer than usual, a full three days!

Jiang Ming felt incredibly bored after three days.

He even started planning some soul tools on the iceberg.

He is already a level nine Soul Master, but above level nine, there is a level ten Soul Master.

Moreover, because their souls were intertwined, Xue Di could easily understand his thoughts, and the two of them flirted and communicated, which was a kind of enjoyment.

Well, I've certainly had my fill of the "evil lord's" (a term for a man who is overly affectionate

The tribulation clouds grew even heavier, as if the sky were about to collapse. Even those watching from the innermost circle instinctively retreated a considerable distance.

Especially Di Tian!
The previous lightning tribulations were manageable; below the limit, they were all like ants.

But once you reach the limit level, the energy of heaven and earth that you attract will expand significantly.

If the lightning tribulation mistook him for a soul beast undergoing tribulation, then he would truly be doomed!
boom!
The much-anticipated tribulation of the ferocious beast, which has been 500,000 years old, has finally arrived, reaching its maximum power!

If the elders had previously been wary of interference during Jiang Ming's tribulation, such precautions are no longer necessary.

Anyone who dares to interfere at this time will inevitably be targeted by the lightning tribulation!

As for its power, it's like a lightning strike at the level of a Limit Douluo's full strength right from the start. Do you dare to play with that?
That is seeking death!
However, after the tribulation lightning reached its limit, the elders began to worry about Jiang Ming's situation.

Jiang Ming's physical body had reached its limit, and this heavenly tribulation had also reached its maximum power, beginning to pose a danger!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Jiang Ming looked up at the sky and suddenly leaped into the air!
Just like before, it charged straight towards the heavenly tribulation!

As he charged toward the heavenly tribulation, he began to release his soul power!
His golden armor shone brightly, and rings of spirit rings shot into the sky as he leaped!
Four black, three red, and one gold!
Jiang Ming has released his martial spirit!
However, he only released his martial spirit and did not use any amplification-type soul skills.

Releasing the Martial Soul is a precaution, in case there's not enough time to release it during the tribulation.

Moreover, the boost from soul power is also a significant one.

Although it doesn't reach the strength of a physical body, it's still a level 97 soul power! And it's level 97 soul power enhanced by two soul cores! It has a much deeper foundation than ordinary level 97 soul power.

boom!
Jiang Ming ran into a thunderbolt.

The world was as bright as day, with effects similar to those of the previous lightning tribulation.

However, the concentration of lightning elements escaping from the space has almost doubled!

Even the Soul Masters at the Soul Sect level in the first line of defense felt a tingling sensation all over their bodies.

But no one cared about that; instead, they all looked at Jiang Ming in the air as the brightness dimmed slightly.

The evil lord, who was sealed inside the ice mountain, couldn't help but curse inwardly when he saw Jiang Ming standing tall amidst the thunder.

"Trash Heavenly Tribulation! How come you can't kill him?!"
