Chapter 541: Chapter541-The Third Tribulation

That was right. This kind of torment would gradually drive a person insane. Not only would the physical body wither, but even an existence once powerful enough to hold up the heavens with one hand would become weak and powerless under the effects of Celestial Exhaustion.

No matter how powerful someone had once been, they would now become a weakling incapable of even restraining a chicken. With the Divine Soul weakened, they would become vulnerable to all kinds of threats.

Under the effects of Celestial Exhaustion, every aspect of one’s Strength would be comprehensively restricted.

Without power on the same cosmic level, there was no way to break it. The only alternative was to endure it through sheer willpower until it finally passed.

Daniel took a deep breath. He had never imagined that a Cosmic Tribulation could be this vicious. In order to deal with him, the universe had even resorted to its ultimate killing move—Celestial Exhaustion.

Daniel frowned and sighed. "This is going to be somewhat troublesome."

After all, Celestial Exhaustion was different from other Cosmic Tribulations. It would not simply disappear at any moment. He would need time to slowly endure it until its effects wore away.

And no one knew exactly how long that would take.

Under normal circumstances, Celestial Exhaustion lasted at least one year. But for the Cosmic Tribulation Daniel was undergoing, it would require at least two years.

If he were outside the formation, he would have to endure it for an entire hundred years.

It was only because of the grand tribulation formation that the duration had been reduced to two years.

Two years meant that he could not leave the grand tribulation formation again. Even his clones would be affected by Celestial Exhaustion, because this Cosmic Tribulation directly targeted the Origin itself. It was cosmic-level energy, and even Daniel was powerless against it. The only exception was his Starry Sky Behemoth clone, Lexen, which he could still make use of.

Lexen had been cultivating inside the Spacetime Palace all this time, but his current Strength was still unusable.

In other words, the Strength Daniel could truly mobilize right now had effectively fallen infinitely close to zero.

He sighed. "Damn it. This Cosmic Tribulation really hates me that much."

"Still, it’s not completely hopeless. The T7 Oracle-grade clone Grand Oracle Shamir left behind for me is still here, and God Vade and Uriah both owe me favors."

"Besides, Boren and Gison can help me as well. Add Kellen of the Chaos Humans and some of the other Chaos Humans, and as long as I can hold out for these two years, once I endure this, there’ll be almost nothing left capable of threatening me."

Daniel’s eyes flickered. "The fifth tribulation is already this difficult. Future tribulations will only become even more terrifying."

"If I eventually undergo that Cosmic Quantitative Tribulation, the universe will probably want to swallow me alive."

"And if I take another step beyond that and undergo the Supreme Tribulation, the difficulty is simply unimaginable. This universe really has far too much resentment toward me."

With that thought, Daniel decisively explained his current situation to Boren and Gison.

When they heard Daniel’s voice transmission, Boren and Jason could not help drawing in sharp breaths. The tribulations Brother Faustus underwent were on a completely different level from theirs.

Celestial Exhaustion was simply too terrifying. Even Daniel had been trapped by this cosmic tribulation.

After hearing Daniel’s arrangements, the two immediately left.

Boren informed the clone Grand Oracle Shamir had left behind in the Sacred Land of the situation.

Grand Oracle Shamir immediately used the clone to contact the Holy Golden Mountain branch.

He announced that Faustus would be entering secluded cultivation to undergo his tribulation. As a T7 Oracle-grade powerhouse, combined with the vast authority Daniel had granted him, no player dared oppose him.

Naturally, the former Holy Golden Mountain Oracle-grade powerhouses had even fewer objections.

They did not dare object.

Daniel had already beaten them into submission long ago. None of them even dared entertain malicious thoughts anymore.

After that, Boren went to find God Vade.

Gison went to find Kellen and Uriah.

At this point, they were all tribulation-stage powerhouses. Although they were only Tier-1 Oracle-grade, their actual Strength was no weaker than that of Tier-2 Oracle-grade powerhouses, and they could even fight Tier-3 Oracle-grade experts.

...

Chaosverse.

Uriah met Gison.

"What?!" The meat bun in Uriah’s mouth dropped to the ground as she opened her mouth in shock. "Big Brother Faustus wants me to repay the karma I owe him, and he also wants me to bring several Grand Oracle-grade powerhouses as bodyguards? Okay, okay! I’ll prepare to leave right away."

Karma could be either great or small.

Uriah had been troubled over how she could repay the karmic debt she owed Daniel.

Now that Daniel needed her help, she accepted without hesitation.

She immediately reported the matter to her patriarch. The patriarch himself would eventually need to undergo tribulation, and in order to establish a connection with Daniel, he generously dispatched several T7 Oracle-grade powerhouses to serve as Uriah’s guards.

Daniel had made the situation very clear.

The Myriad Races Universe was about to become extraordinarily dangerous and brutal.

All kinds of factions would become entangled there.

Not only would powerful experts and Grand Oracle-grade powerhouses from other universes come searching for opportunities, but factions such as the Eternal Tribulation Palace and the Ultimate Dao Domain Sea would also become involved.

Under ordinary circumstances, weaker Oracle-grade powerhouses would barely even be qualified to participate. Once dragged into the conflict, they would face a nine-deaths-one-life situation.

That was why Daniel had specifically instructed Uriah to bring Grand Oracle-grade guards.

The patriarch was extraordinarily generous, partly because he valued Uriah and partly because of Daniel.

"Uriah, take our race’s supreme treasure with you," the patriarch instructed. "Come back alive."

"Mm-hmm!" Uriah nodded heavily.

Chaosverse, Chaos Humans.

Gison and Uriah found Kellen.

Kellen was also a Tier-1 Oracle-grade powerhouse at this point.

He had undergone his tribulation earlier than Boren and Gison, doing so shortly after Daniel’s tribulation.

He had simply missed the emergence of Transcendent Oracle-grade.

Gison did not explain anything aloud. Just as when inviting Uriah, he directly handed Daniel’s letter to Kellen.

But Kellen’s letter was different from Uriah’s.

Uriah’s letter had only mentioned repaying karma and the changes that were about to occur in the Myriad Races Universe.

Kellen’s letter explained the entire cause and sequence of events.

"Celestial Exhaustion..." Kellen drew in a sharp breath and immediately understood how urgent the situation was. "As long as Faustus can endure these two years, he’ll be fine. I definitely have to help with this."

"However, the Chaos Humans have suffered heavy losses in our recent war against the Heaven-Equaling Universe."

"We don’t have any spare T7 Oracle-grade powerhouses available."

"But I can still bring several Tier-5 Oracle-grade powerhouses."

With that thought, Kellen immediately invited several Tier-5 Oracle-grade experts with whom he had close relationships, and together they set out for the Myriad Races Universe.

Meanwhile—

Boren arrived in the Rune Universe.

He successfully invited God Vade as well.

At the same time, God Vade’s teacher arranged for two T7 Oracle-grade powerhouses to accompany him as guards.

Their destination—

The Myriad Races Universe!

God Vade also needed to repay his karmic debt, while his teacher valued Daniel’s control over the tribulations undergone by cultivators.

If they helped Daniel now, then when his students underwent tribulations in the future, things would become much easier for them.

Faustus absolutely could not be offended.

And when Faustus needed help, they absolutely had to help him—even if doing so required paying an enormous price.

The true terror of Celestial Exhaustion did not lie in the Cosmic Tribulation itself.

It lay in its duration.

Throughout the period in which it remained active, the tribulation-taker’s Strength would be weakened to the absolute limit.

That alone was an extraordinarily dangerous situation.

After all, anyone who had spent enough time out in the world would inevitably have a few enemies.
