"Jiubei, are you saying that we are going to die?" Jingxin couldn't help but worry when he saw Chen Jiu's lack of confidence. He stole a glance in front of Chen Jiu and blushed shyly.
"If this goes on, we will definitely die. Don't you think that the might of the Heavenly Punishment has only just descended?" Chen Jiu looked up and couldn't help but feel a little hopeless.
"How could this be? We are only condensing the Sacred Sky Pillar. Why would the heavens treat us so unfairly? "Jingxin asked in disbelief.
"I'm sorry. This is all because of me. If it hadn't been for me, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way!" Chen Jiu suddenly apologized apologetically, as he knew that he was the root cause of all this.
"How could it be you? Jiubei, you don't have to blame yourself. Even if this had happened because of you, I wouldn't blame you! "Jingxin looked at Chen Jiu sincerely. He was naturally very grateful for Chen Jiu's protection.
"Thank you. Thank you for your understanding. Jingxin, don't worry. I will use my life to protect you and make up for my mistakes!" Chen Jiu promised solemnly. He didn't want to harm Jingxin because of him.
"Jiubei, you didn't do anything wrong. You don't have to treat me like that. I can't bear it!" Jingxin was touched and felt a little embarrassed.
"Alright, Jingxin. Perhaps there is still room for reconciliation. Come into my embrace now. I will think of a way!" Chen Jiu suddenly opened his arms and smiled.
"No, I can't let you be in danger alone!" Jingxin glanced at Chen Jiu and lowered his head. His entire neck turned red. Damn monk! How was he going to let him pass?
"Jingxin, listen to me. Come over quickly!" Chen Jiu chided. However, Jingxin refused to get close to him.
Boom! The Heavenly Tribulation helped Chen Jiu. Another round of Thunder Tribulation surged down. Jingxin was unable to withstand it, so he could only be protected by Chen Jiu once again.
Although there was some discomfort down below, Jingxin still felt very warm as he leaned against this strong embrace.
Cultivators defied the Heavens and fought against the Heavens and the Earth. It felt good to have someone to rely on!
Crack, crack, crack … The Thunder Tribulation rolled like the waves of the sea. It kept hitting Chen Jiu's body, causing his skin to split open and his flesh to crack. His bones and tendons were broken, but he seemed to be unaware of it. He was in a meditative state.
Within the Nine Dragons Ring, Chen Jiu complained, "Old Dragon, save me!"
"Master, there's no need to panic. Although the supreme Immortal Punishment is here, it's not as strong as you think it is!" The giant dragon comforted him out of goodwill and spoke without much worry.
"What? Not that strong? Go out and try it. That kind of power is endless and boundless. It's even more terrifying than Dao power. Even ten thousand of me wouldn't be a match for it! "Chen Jiu complained loudly.
"Yes, the supreme Immortal Punishment is very strong, but it won't really send down a destructive attack. Otherwise, you would have died long ago!" The giant dragon explained. "When you broke through in the past, you did break through the taboo and caused the supreme Immortal Punishment to appear. However, there's a chance of survival in the Heavens and Earth. The supreme Immortal Punishment will at most send down a power ten thousand times stronger to destroy you. As long as you can endure it, you'll be recognized by the Space-Time of the past. This will be of great benefit to your next move!"
"Ten thousand times stronger!" Chen Jiu was tongue-tied. "Then won't I be dead?"
"Master, don't forget that you have an Ultimate Godly Body. This ten thousand times stronger is not enough to destroy you. Moreover, you're cultivating together with Jingxin. She's from the past, so the Heavens and Earth will be merciful to her. Therefore, as long as you continue to cultivate together and resist the Heavenly Punishment, the chances of success are still very high!" The giant dragon reminded him kindly.
"Oh? What are the chances? "Chen Jiu immediately asked.
"At least 80%!" The giant dragon said with certainty.
"80%? That's more like it! "After getting an affirmative answer, Chen Jiu couldn't help but feel much more at ease.
"Master, if there's nothing else, you'd better hurry up and resist the Heavenly Punishment. Otherwise, your body will be destroyed and you won't be able to return to the real world!" The giant dragon continued to persuade him.
"Alright!" Chen Jiu also knew that the situation was serious. Since the giant dragon said that there was no danger, he didn't continue to worry. Instead, he shifted his consciousness away.
"Master, you're on your own now. Under the punishment of an Utmost Immortal, the stronger the living being, the greater the impact they will receive. All I can do to help you is lie to you!" The moment Chen Jiu left, the Colossal Dragon sighed helplessly.
Fortunately, Chen Jiu couldn't hear it. Otherwise, he would have been angered to death by the giant dragon's words. What 80% chance? In fact, the giant dragon knew that if he attracted the supreme Immortal Punishment, the chances of survival would be less than 10%!
"Master, I didn't mean to put you in danger. It's just that you wanted to deceive Fa Shan. You can't do it without truly merging into the past. Who asked you to be so lecherous? How can you not pay a price?" The giant dragon pushed all the responsibility to Chen Jiu and said with self-satisfaction, "With a 10% chance and Jingxin's good fortune, you'll definitely be fine!"
As soon as he came out, Chen Jiu sucked in a breath of cold air from the pain. His soul was trembling. If he had not received a strong guarantee from the dragon, he would not have been able to hold on and would have given up.
Sometimes, stubbornness and confidence were really important. Faced with a broken body with torn skin, broken bones, and torn tendons, and endless heavenly punishment that crushed one's heart, if one did not have a little bit of fighting spirit, how could one survive?
All along, Chen Jiu had always believed in the giant dragon. He had never been wrong. Who would have thought that the invincible giant dragon would lie to him?
"Jiubei, you're finally awake. Are you okay?" Jingxin wasn't hurt much in the man's arms. When she felt him move, she asked with concern.
"I'm fine, Jingxin. Don't worry. I used the Heavenly Divination Technique just now and realized that we won't necessarily die. We still have a chance. As long as we grasp it, not only will we be fine, but our skills will also improve greatly!" Chen Jiu shook his head in pain and pretended to be serious.
"Really? Then what should we do? "Jingxin's eyes lit up. She was very happy that she wouldn't die.
"Let's combine the Saintly Heavenly Pillar with our bodies. We'll use defense as an attack. As long as we survive, we'll be fine!" Chen Jiu immediately gave a solution.
