Not only the Ninth Emperor Xia, but the other Xia Emperors also had equally remarkable expressions.

The path to becoming a Martial God is littered with corpses, even when someone barely reaches the end of the path, many still end up dying at the final tribulation.

But looking at Xia Tianming, with the Void Cauldron in his possession, he seemed to transcend the tribulation with such ease.

As if it were as simple as eating and drinking.

Could the key to passing the Divine Tribulation truly lie in possessing a Divine Artifact?

"It's terrifying, with Tianming's capabilities now, he could probably kill you and me with just one move."

Xia Qingyang looked fearfully at the purple shockwave and said to Xia Haiwei beside him.

Xia Haiwei remained silent, choosing not to refute.

With his fiery temper, if someone dared to boast about killing him in one move, Xia Haiwei would have long since chopped them in half with an axe.

But when Xia Qingyang said it, he had no retort, which spoke volumes.

Indeed, both of them were no longer on the same level as Xia Tianming at this moment.

Xia Donghai gazed at the figure below, a surge of overwhelming regret filled his mind.

But it was useless.

"Is the so-called Divine Tribulation simply sending the embodiment of heaven and earth to slay the one crossing it?" Xia Tianming sneered, "Could it be that the heavens are so afraid of more people sharing his cake?"

"I say, today it is you who should die!"

"Fourth Sound!"

"Fifth Sound"

Without waiting further, Xia Tianming unleashed two more sounds.

Previously, he could only manage five consecutive releases, depleting nearly all his Spiritual Qi.

But today isn't like the past, at this moment Xia Tianming is on the verge of Divinity Transformation!

The Blood Dragon howled in agony in the sky, rolling over, its mournful cries causing everyone to look at each other.

The Ten Great Xia Emperors suddenly felt redundant, realizing that crossing the Divine Tribulation is so simple, Xia Tianming didn't actually need their presence.

Despite the shift in their mindset, the Blood Dragon was in utter distress.

It was merely an embodiment of primary forces used to handle some barely transformed Celestial Tier Martial Sovereigns easily.

Only prodigies with peerless talent, crushing all others, could barely survive its assault to finally condense a Divine Body.

But it never expected Xia Tianming would play such a rogue!

Not only did he use a Divine Artifact for the tribulation, but the artifact's quality was also extremely extraordinary, at least above upper-grade Emperor Level!

Divine Artifacts are rare, unlike Emperor's Weapons that you can grab in abundance, they require Martial God experts to nurture their Divine Weapons day and night.

Sharpening them over millions of years can they finally become Divine Weapons.

And even then, it's not guaranteed to succeed!

What kind of heaven-defying existence is Xia Tianming? In the Divine Domain, over half of the Martial Gods don't even possess a Divine Artifact, yet how does he have one for tribulation?

If the people in the Divine Domain knew Xia Tianming possessed the Void Cauldron, a bloody storm would immediately sweep through the Great Xia Empire!

Xia Feng and Xia Tianming only knew that Divine Artifacts were precious, unaware of their extreme value.

Even those seasoned Martial Sovereigns believed that Divine Artifacts merely helped understand the path better.

"Boom, boom!"

Afterwards, shockwaves driven by Xia Tianming increased in number, causing the Blood Dragon to roll continuously without the slightest ability to retaliate.

"No! No! No!!"

"Human, stop!"

"Stop now, and I'll let you pass this tribulation!"

The Blood Dragon could no longer endure, though it was part of the embodiment of heaven and earth, it had long gained sentience.

Honestly speaking, after experiencing the beauty of life, who would willingly die?

"Weren't you saying you were going to slay me before? Now that our roles are swapped, you're begging." Xia Tianming sneered, "Also, passing this tribulation isn't up to you, it's up to me!"

"You are my tribulation, but if I kill you, I can still pass it!"

"No! I am part of the heavens, do you truly dare defy against them!" the Blood Dragon roared, madness flashing in its eyes.

"Go to hell, ever since birth I don't believe in the heavens, you say I'm defying, then so be it!"

Xia Tianming continued to strike the Void Cauldron.

Seventh strike, eighth strike, ninth strike!

A total of nine sounds, these shockwaves, combined, were enough to claim the Blood Dragon's life!

"No, I don't want to die!"

Soon, the Blood Dragon was blasted until its skin was torn and flesh gaped, even its Divine Soul was destroyed.

After the smoke cleared, there was no trace of the Blood Dragon left.

The Blood Cloud in the sky dissipated, and the skies around the Great Xia Empire regained their clarity.

The Blood Dragon transformed into shimmering red light, drifting towards the heavens, disappearing after a short while.

Xia Tianming's face was instantly filled with joy.

He could clearly feel that a special presence had congealed within his body.

At this moment, he felt that previous attacks and martial techniques that could threaten him appeared feeble and powerless.

He even sensed that with just a casual punch, he could flatten the Imperial Capital!

Even the Ten Great Xia Emperors around him felt like ants to Xia Tianming.

Truly ants.

"It's done, Tianming became a Martial God!"

"Our Great Xia Empire has produced a Martial God, we're about to advance to the Divine Domain!"

Xia Qingyang's eyes widened, then he excitedly shouted.

Xia Haiwei also looked at Xia Tianming in shock, the eyes of the Ten Great Xia Emperors all turned to him.

But their gaze had changed, holding a reverence never seen before!

"Grandfather, you succeeded!"

Xia Feng also rose into the air excitedly, flying to Xia Tianming's side.

At this moment, Xia Tianming's demeanor underwent an earth-shattering transformation.

Every move he made carried some inexplicable mystery that even a Martial Sovereign couldn't comprehend.

"Not yet."

But to everyone's surprise, Xia Tianming shook his head, denying his transformation into a god.

"I'm not considered to have broken through to become a Martial God yet." Xia Tianming frowned, for although his physical body had grown hundreds to thousands of times stronger, he found that his energy was still operating as Spiritual Power.

"Condense the Divine Body, transform into Divine Power."

"Both must be achieved to truly become a Martial God!"

"But right now, I've only condensed the Divine Body, yet Divine Power hasn't fully transformed."

Xia Tianming looked at his hands, then closed his eyes, deep in thought.

In theory, he should have reached the Martial God Realm by now.

But as no one before him in the Great Xia Empire had ever stepped through this threshold, they knew nothing of the path ahead.

It could be said that at this moment, Xia Tianming is the one who has ventured furthest on the Martial Dao in the history of the Great Xia Empire!

"What's the situation?"

Xia Haiwei also furrowed his brows, but Xia Qingyang intervened to stop him.

He shook his head at Xia Haiwei, signaling to let Xia Tianming think independently.
