Once again, Su Yu attempted to summon the Thunder Hell Prison Vine. 

With Electrolux's assistance, the summoning was effortless. 

In the desolate, gray space, flashes of lightning illuminated the entire area. 

Su Yu took a moment to introduce the Thunder Hell Prison Vine to the other entities present. 

Since they would all share Su Yu's spiritual sea in the future, it was good for them to become acquainted. 

When everything was ready, Su Yu gestured to the Blue Silver Emperor to begin its breakthrough. 

From the Blade of Vitality, an immense life force surged forth, channeled into the Blue Silver Emperor through its contract with Su Yu. 

Although Su Yu could have transferred this power remotely, using the contract strengthened their bond and facilitated the upcoming transformation into a Spirit Soul. 

After all, following its tribulation, the Blue Silver Emperor would become a 200,000-year soul beast. 

Having just absorbed the Thunder Hell Prison Vine's 100,000-year cultivation, Su Yu faced immense pressure. To absorb the Blue Silver Emperor successfully, both it and the Thunder Hell Prison Vine needed to cooperate fully without mishaps. 

As the Blade of Vitality poured an enormous life force into the Blue Silver Emperor, its cultivation rapidly surged past the 200,000-year mark. 

For soul beasts, a tribulation was not a test but an ordeal. 

Once their cultivation surpassed a certain threshold, the tribulation would descend. Surviving it meant becoming a true ferocious beast; failing it meant death. 

The dramatic increase in power that ferocious beasts experienced was a direct result of surviving this trial, not a boost during the tribulation itself. 

Without luck or opportunity, a soul beast would lack the strength to survive this ordeal. 

As the Blue Silver Emperor surpassed the 200,000-year threshold and gained an additional thousand years of cultivation, a tribulation began forming high above the half-plane. 

The oppressive aura of the thunderclouds inspired awe. 

"So, this is a tribulation?" 

It was also Electrolux's first time witnessing a tribulation in the Douluo Plane. 

His ethereal energy body furrowed its brows. 

"This boundary is imposed by the rules of this world," he murmured. 

The Blue Silver Emperor's tribulation finally descended. 

*Boom!* 

A massive bolt of lightning struck down. 

The Blue Silver Emperor, brimming with vitality, gathered its vine-like roots into a long spear. 

*"Blue Silver Tyrant Spear!"* 

The spear shattered the lightning bolt but was destroyed in the process. 

Yet, this was merely the beginning. 

Within the roiling tribulation clouds, terrifying bolts of lightning gathered. 

As the first bolt fell, thousands more followed, relentlessly striking the Blue Silver Emperor. 

Even from a distance, Su Yu's heart raced at the sheer intensity of the tribulation. 

The 200,000-year tribulation was far beyond anything he had expected; even a typical Titled Douluo would likely struggle to withstand it. 

The Thunder Hell Prison Vine began to act. 

Using its unique racial traits, it redirected a significant portion of the tribulation's force toward itself. 

The tribulation clouds seemed provoked by this interference. They churned violently, expanding to envelop both the Blue Silver Emperor and the Thunder Hell Prison Vine. 

Through their contract, a surge of dense life force flowed from Su Yu into the Thunder Hell Prison Vine. 

The contract's existence subtly masked their actions from the tribulation's rules, allowing Su Yu to enhance both soul beasts. 

Of course, failure to survive the tribulation would result in Su Yu suffering backlash through the contract. 

But he wasn't worried. 

Enduring the tribulation and thriving afterward were two separate matters. 

As long as neither soul beast perished outright, the tribulation's dissipation would signify survival. 

Lightning bolts rained down endlessly. 

Even with the tribulation intensified, the Thunder Hell Prison Vine absorbed the majority of the strikes. 

The destructive power of the lightning was overwhelming, but after enduring the initial few bolts and compressing the lightning's energy within itself, the Thunder Hell Prison Vine began absorbing the tribulation lightning more smoothly. 

For the Thunder Hell Prison Vine, the tribulation was not just a calamity—it was a tempering. 

With Su Yu's Blade of Vitality sustaining it, the Thunder Hell Prison Vine greedily devoured the tribulation lightning. 

The Blue Silver Emperor, sensing the reduced pressure, felt an unexpected sense of relief. 

What initially seemed like an additional burden to its tribulation now felt almost insignificant. 

The Thunder Hell Prison Vine's presence appeared to serve as a mere catalyst, redirecting part of the tribulation toward itself. 

The 200,000-year tribulation was lengthy, lasting three full days and nights without pause. 

Throughout, Su Yu felt the raw terror of the ordeal. 

He channeled every ounce of the Blade of Vitality's life energy into the Thunder Hell Prison Vine, bypassing even his martial soul's usual absorption process to infuse it with pure life energy. 

"Still talking tough? Already struggling to hang on?" 

After absorbing three days and nights of the tribulation, the Thunder Hell Prison Vine was on the verge of surpassing the 100,000-year threshold. 

Spurred by Su Yu's taunt, it crackled with renewed determination, ignoring its battered state as it forcibly absorbed every remaining lightning bolt from the surrounding tribulation. 

Even the Blue Silver Emperor's portion of the lightning vanished in an instant. 

Seizing the opportunity, the Blue Silver Emperor caught its breath, rapidly absorbing Su Yu's life energy and requesting the enhancement of his extreme life attribute. 

*Boom!* 

Within the Thunder Hell Prison Vine, a deafening roar of thunder erupted, louder than even the rolling thunder in the skies above. 

Cracks spread across its body as lightning burst forth. 

It seemed ready to explode. 

At that moment, a burst of extreme life energy flowed through their contract, faintly integrating into the Thunder Hell Prison Vine. 

This sliver of life force allowed it to glimpse a thread of vitality amidst destruction. 

Its shattered body began to mend, and the chaotic lightning receded. 

A dazzling purple light illuminated the space. 

*Boom!* 

The Thunder Hell Prison Vine's absorption of the tribulation's power pushed it past the 100,000-year mark, even raising its cultivation by several thousand years. 

High above, a new tribulation cloud began forming. 

This was the Thunder Hell Prison Vine's 100,000-year tribulation. 

The second cloud merged seamlessly with the original tribulation. 

It was as if the tribulation regarded the Thunder Hell Prison Vine and the Blue Silver Emperor as accomplices, escalating its intensity. 

Yet, for the Thunder Hell Prison Vine, which had already absorbed the energy of a ferocious beast's tribulation, this new challenge felt manageable. 

Of course, this was merely an illusion. 

As its body healed, it began to crack once more. 

In his blind confidence, the Thunder Hell Vines were on the verge of bursting apart.

On the brink of explosion, the Thunder Hell Vines finally sensed the danger to its body.

"Su Yu, quickly, the soul spirit transformation!"

This time, the Thunder Hell Vines truly felt the approach of destruction.

Su Yu did not hesitate. The powerful formation before him flared with light as it fused with the contract array manifested in his spiritual sea.

The Thunder Hell Vines instantly agreed.

Under the power of the formation, the Thunder Hell Vines' body turned into a beam of light, merging into Su Yu's body.

A powerful connection formed between them.

At the same time, Su Yu could also feel the explosive force of the thunderous energy.

"This thing still isn't digested?" Su Yu cursed under his breath. The Thunder Hell Vines were a bit of a hassle.

"You digest it yourself. I'm only responsible for refining the soul ring."

"Master, I don't need the soul bone. Instead, let the soul bone craft something similar to the God-Slaying Sword."

Elder Yi said nothing as he extracted the soul bone energy forming within Su Yu's body and began the refining process.

Meanwhile, Blue Silver Emperor continued to endure the heavenly tribulation's force.

Without the Thunder Hell Vines sharing the burden, Su Yu had to absorb the soul ring's energy on his own, while Elder Yi refined the soul bone that was meant to be granted to Su Yu by the Thunder Hell Vines.

The pressure on Blue Silver Emperor grew immensely.

Its body began to crumble under the force of the tribulation, battling with every ounce of strength.

Its vitality was rapidly depleting.

Su Yu fully concentrated on refining the soul ring of the Thunder Hell Vines, but the energy carrying the thunderous force made his meridians tingle with numbness.

Maintaining his focus, his Spirit Blade was pushed to the limit, channeling vitality into his body.

The source of the Spirit Blade, sealed in his spiritual sea by Elder Yi, also began to take effect, preserving Su Yu's physical state.

His blood energy surged, trying its best to shield his internal organs and meridians from the damage of the thunder.

Enduring all the pain, Su Yu continued to refine the essence of the soul ring.

Previously, he would always refine the soul ring's soul power first, delaying as much as possible, and then focus on refining the soul ring's essence to break through the bottleneck by several levels.

But now, he had to refine the essence first, before attempting to absorb the enormous amount of soul power.

Since the Thunder Hell Vines had already fused with Su Yu as a soul spirit, he didn't need to worry about the soul power disappearing.

Boom!

Inside Su Yu's body, thunder crashed against his internal organs and meridians repeatedly. His blood energy infused into them, preserving his life force, while vitality flowed to heal his meridians and organs.

After hours of repeated cycles, Su Yu's physical body was tempered.

Five hours passed before Su Yu finished refining the essence of the Thunder Hell Vines' soul ring.

With the soul ring's essence refined, Su Yu's soul power finally broke through.

It was almost a free level-up, with the accumulated soul power from Dragon Valley, along with some energy absorbed during the essence refining process, causing his soul power to rise to level 55!

But that wasn't the end.

After refining the essence of the soul ring, Su Yu began to absorb the soul power contained within the soul ring itself.

This process was similar to the sacrifices of the Heavenly Dream Iceworm, where energy was sealed and absorbed gradually.

Su Yu was following a similar method, absorbing the soul ring first before gradually unlocking and absorbing its massive energy.

His soul power surged rapidly during this process.

Level 56!

Level 57!

As time passed, Su Yu spent an entire day and night refining the enormous soul power.

On the other side, Blue Silver Emperor was severely wounded.

The heavenly tribulation finally began to near its end.

However, the closer it got to the end, the more terrifying it became.

Powerful bolts of thunder struck down, each one felt like a heavy blow to Blue Silver Emperor's life core.

Yet, despite these devastating attacks, Blue Silver Emperor held on tenaciously.

He demonstrated the resilience inherent to Blue Silver Grass life.

Blue Silver Emperor truly lived up to his title.

Su Yu's soul power had reached level 59 four hours ago, but the last level was stubbornly elusive.

"Old Zi, absorb more of the tribulation's energy!"

Boom!

The final phases of the tribulation came crashing down, each strike cutting through like a blade, stabbing into fatal weak points.

The massive bolts of thunder came down, and Blue Silver Emperor's situation grew more dire.

At this moment, the ethereal figure of the Thunder Hell Vines appeared, drawing some of the thunderous energy into its body.

The thunder was absorbed by the Thunder Hell Vines, and Su Yu received feedback from this, a powerful surge of energy.

Su Yu's internal organs and meridians shattered, his entire body racked with pain.

But at the same time, with this burst of power, the bottleneck that had trapped Su Yu for so long finally shattered.

The ultimate life attribute exploded, the Spirit Blade exerted its force, and Su Yu's broken internal organs and meridians slowly began to heal.

"Great Light Technique!"

After Elder Yi successfully refined the Thunder God's Whip, he noticed Su Yu's condition. An eighth-level light magic spell descended, and the life energy from the Spirit Blade exploded within Su Yu's body, instantly healing his broken internal organs and meridians.

Su Yu's soul power reached level 60, and he sensed Blue Silver Emperor's situation.

"It should be the final tribulation!"

The heavenly tribulation clouds in the sky contracted, gathering into the final bolt of lightning.

The terrifying thunderous energy pierced the heavens.

Boom!

Blue Silver Emperor's body was immediately shattered, and his life core exploded under the final strike of thunder.

Life force continuously surged, resisting the fate of complete annihilation.

However, Blue Silver Grass was too fragile.

Even after evolving into the Emperor form, its body was still delicate.

By sealing the Emperor through belief, it indeed elevated the soul beast's inherent quality to the highest level, but it couldn't completely compensate for its inherent weakness.

Of course, Blue Silver Emperor had shown extremely abnormal vitality in the domain of life.

Perhaps this was the enhancement brought by Blue Silver Grass after its evolution to Emperor, strengthening its vitality rather than its resilience, defense, or destructive power.

Blue Silver Emperor's superiority over ordinary Blue Silver Grass was evident in the way its vitality was triggered and boosted.

This also confirmed that Su Yu's choice was correct.

The core trait of Blue Silver Grass was life!

Blue Silver Emperor held on.

He survived the twenty-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation.

However, his essence was damaged, and even though he didn't disintegrate in the tribulation, he would last no longer than ten years, perhaps even less.

"Su Yu, it's time."

At the last moment, it seemed Blue Silver Emperor had done something. Something disappeared from his life core.

Su Yu's eyes wavered.

That was Blue Silver Emperor's authority.

He had transferred this authority. In the territory of the Sun Moon Empire on Douluo Continent, the most powerful Blue Silver King would inherit this authority and become the new Blue Silver Emperor.

Or perhaps, Blue Silver Emperor had already made his choice, handing the authority over to his intended successor.

Su Yu didn't dwell on this matter too much.

A twenty-hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor, even without his authority, remained a Blue Silver Emperor.

The tribulation could not erase his core essence, and neither could the authority be taken away.

Su Yu carved the transformation formation in the air.

Blue Silver Emperor's life core, along with his shattered body, turned into light and flowed into Su Yu.

"Master, I'll trouble you once more."

Elder Yi, taking advantage of the soul bone granted by Blue Silver Emperor to Su Yu, extracted the energy and began refining it.
