Chapter 240 – Divine Coffin! Obtained the Class Change Item!

“Senior Schoolmate, what is the background of those five people?”

As the two conversed, Ye Sheng turned his head to look at the fallen five 5th Revolution Ghost Kings and inquired.

The five dared to take action despite knowing his identity; their origins were likely not simple.

Upon hearing this, Jian Mingzi said seriously, “Those five are members of the ‘Divine Coffin,’ a group of cultists, each one a madman. Their doctrine is to purify the world!

To purify every single person in this world!

Though they call it purification, it is practically no different from destroying the world!

Many years ago, they performed a blood sacrifice on an entire city, which enraged the Federation. The Federal Council passed a resolution, defining them as cultists, to be executed on sight!”

As Jian Mingzi spoke, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes. This doctrine placed them almost directly opposite humanity—it was a fight to the death!

“Junior Schoolmate, you must be extra careful if you encounter these rats again in the future. Of course, if you can kill one, kill one!” The fierce look in Jian Mingzi’s eyes vanished as quickly as it appeared.

Ye Sheng nodded. “Divine Coffin? What a peculiar name!”

…

After their conversation, Jian Mingzi left.

He had important matters to attend to.

Ye Sheng also continued his journey, eager to obtain the Celestial Master’s Class Advancement Item as soon as possible.

Especially after this incident, Ye Sheng realized how weak he was. In the Fengdu Ghost Realm, 5th Revolution Ghost Kings were everywhere.

Even dealing with ordinary 5th Revolution Ghost Kings was so difficult for him.

If he encountered truly powerful 5th Revolution Ghost Kings, like Jian Mingzi, he probably wouldn’t even have a chance to fight back.

For a moment, Ye Sheng felt an increasingly urgent desire to step into the 5th Revolution Ghost King Realm!

…

Several days later!

In a region of the Extreme Heat Hell, a 4th Revolution BOSS-level Ghost Creature exploded, and from where it fell, beams of light in various colors rose.

A figure in white robes flashed and appeared in the air above, looking down as he searched among the multicolored light beams for what he needed.

Soon, the white-robed figure’s face lit up with joy. Among the various light beams, he finally spotted a brilliant white beam.

The white beam—this was the glow unique to a Class Advancement Item for his own Class.

“Retrieve!”

Ye Sheng waved his hand, grabbing a white light sphere. As for the other colored light beams, he paid them no mind, not even bothering to pick them up.

With the white light sphere in hand, Ye Sheng opened his palm to look and found it was a fragment of a bell.

The bell fragment was golden, with mysterious patterns flowing across it, and its aura was quite enigmatic. It resonated with the Celestial Master’s Heart within his body, confirming it was indeed the Class Advancement Item for his Class.

“The Class Advancement Item is different every time!” Ye Sheng shook his head and stored it away, then looked into the distance. “Time to return to the ‘Taixuan Jizhen Cave Heaven’ to cross the Thunder Tribulation!”

There was a reason for returning to the ‘Taixuan Jizhen Cave Heaven’ to cross the Thunder Tribulation.

The Immortal Puppet had once instructed him that he could activate the ‘Thunder-Conducting Array’ within the palace assigned to him.

The purpose of this Thunder-Conducting Array was not to weaken the power of the Thunder Tribulation but rather… to enhance it.

At the ‘Ultimate Realm,’ crossing the Thunder Tribulation was too easy.

While this certainly made success almost guaranteed, it also had its drawbacks.

Ordinary Thunder Tribulations could hardly have a tempering effect on a body at the Ultimate Realm anymore.

Thus, the Thunder-Conducting Array was needed to enhance the power of the Thunder Tribulation!

Tempering the body with the Thunder Tribulation!

It wasn’t just a trial; sometimes it was also an opportunity not to be missed.

“Let’s go.”

After obtaining the Class Advancement Item, the purpose of this trip was considered accomplished. Ye Sheng’s mood visibly brightened, and he swiftly made his way out of the Extreme Heat Hell with incredible speed.

…

The return journey went exceptionally smoothly.

With the help of the Teleportation Array, it didn’t take much time.

Ye Sheng hurried back without pause to the ‘Taixuan Jizhen Cave Heaven.’

Boom!

After Ye Sheng entered the palace, the two heavy palace doors behind him slammed shut with a resounding crash.

About half an hour later.

The dome of the palace where Ye Sheng was located actually split open to both sides, revealing Ye Sheng’s figure seated cross-legged within a Formation below.

Crackle.

The Formation flickered with lightning, and amidst the electric arcs, Ye Sheng crushed the Class Advancement Item.

In the next second, low rumbles of thunder immediately echoed in the sky above the Taixuan Jizhen Cave Heaven.

Above Ye Sheng’s palace, Tribulation Clouds as dark as ink gathered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few short breaths, they blotted out a portion of the sky. From a distance, dazzling lightning could be seen snaking through the dark thunderclouds, a terrifying sight.

This was the 5th Revolution Ghost King Heavenly Thunder Tribulation!

Its scale was more imposing than any previous Tribulation Crossing!

The scene of rumbling thunder naturally alarmed many within the ‘Taixuan Jizhen Cave Heaven,’ drawing powerful gazes from all directions.

But most only glanced briefly before losing interest.

Those who could reside within the Great Emperor’s Dao Field were all Experts, among them not a few Saints.

A mere 4th Revolution Ghost Sect member undergoing a tribulation naturally failed to pique their interest.

However, three individuals were startled.

With a loud bang, the doors of one palace swung open, and a figure emerged.

This figure was dressed in a white suit, looking with shock and uncertainty toward the palace where Ye Sheng was.

Especially at the thick Tribulation Clouds above that palace.

“Is he about to undergo the tribulation?” Shu Mingxiu’s expression turned ugly.

Ye Sheng’s progress was too fast!

While he was still using the Resources granted by the Great Emperor to attempt a Realm Break into the ‘Ultimate Realm,’ Ye Sheng was already about to undergo the tribulation, leaving him far behind.

There was no helping it—Ye Sheng was already at the Ultimate Realm himself, so he had no need to linger in the 4th Revolution Domain and could directly break through.

This was something none of the other students in this cohort could match.

Naturally, he was the one progressing the fastest.

“Damn it! How am I supposed to catch up?” Shu Mingxiu clenched his fists. Ever since leaving the Emperor Lord’s palace that day, he had regarded Ye Sheng as a rival, determined to surpass him.

Yet he also understood a principle: falling behind by one step… meant falling behind step by step!

At the same time, the doors of two other palaces also opened.

Gu Qingren and Ruan Fang emerged from their palaces, looking toward Ye Sheng’s location.

“He’s too fast!” Ruan Fang gazed at the Tribulation Clouds above and fell silent for a moment.

Even with the Great Emperor’s Resources, his progress had been rapid, but he still couldn’t catch up to an Aberration like Ye Sheng.

Gu Qingren, dressed in a long gown that accentuated her slender figure, also stared intently at Ye Sheng’s palace. She parted her crimson lips slightly and said, “Fast progress doesn’t mean much. The most important thing is to pass the ‘Trial Mission’ and become the Emperor Lord’s official disciple.”

She knew very well what truly mattered!

…

Boom! Rumble!

The Tribulation Clouds rumbled with thunder, and countless raindrops began to fall from them, striking the palace dome with a crackling sound, growing heavier and more urgent by the moment!

Below, Ye Sheng, clad in a white robe, sat cross-legged within the ‘Thunder-Conducting Array.’

This ‘Thunder-Conducting Array’ was extraordinary—it had been personally set up by a Saint. If activated to its full potential, it could multiply the power of the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation by over a hundredfold!

Extremely terrifying!

Even a 5th Revolution Ghost King sitting within it could potentially be reduced to ashes.

“Come on!”

Ye Sheng looked up, naturally pushing the Thunder-Conducting Array to its limit.

Sensing the external threat, the Heaven-Suppressing Divine Bell activated spontaneously, and a mystical golden divine bell enveloped Ye Sheng’s body.

The level 4 Heaven-Suppressing Divine Bell possessed invincible defense; even if the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation’s power were multiplied a hundredfold, it would likely be unable to harm it.

At that moment, a figure appeared beneath the Tribulation Clouds and pointed a finger.

The golden Heaven-Suppressing Divine Bell shattered instantly, breaking apart like glass.

Ye Sheng looked over and saw that it was Immortal Puppet standing with his hands behind his back, smiling at him.

Immortal Puppet spoke: “Use your physical body to withstand it, temper yourself with the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation! Then advance to the 5th Revolution Ghost King! Do not waste this opportunity!”

“Yes, Senior Brother!” Ye Sheng nodded.

This was guidance from a Saint, something ordinary people could hardly hope to receive. Naturally, he would comply—there was no harm in it.
