The Legendary Man novel Chapter 661

Chapter 661 Negotiation

Looking at the woman who had gone insane in front of him, Jonathan stretched out his palm and slashed hard at her neck. Nina’s blood vessels were compressed. She only persisted for a second or two before she fainted.

It wasn’t that Jonathan didn’t want to kill her, but he couldn’t and didn’t dare to. According to Lauryn, all the God Realm cultivators from the eight respectable families of Chanaea did not exceed a hundred.

The number was a lot less than expected. Having a God Realm cultivator was the most basic representation of respectable families.

Besides the eight respectable families, although there were rogue cultivators, there were no more than ten of them at most. The most representative ones were Jonathan, Karl, Wilbur, and Joshua.

Those from the secluded sect were not included. They had separated themselves from the secular world from their background and resources.

Based on this calculation, the total active cultivator of Divine Realm in Chanaea did not exceed two hundred. But Chanaea had a vast population of two billion people.

Although it was now the Age of Degeneration, such a vast population with less than two hundred God Realm cultivators showed how difficult it was to be a cultivator.

Breaking through to God Realm was already extremely difficult. It was uncertain if even one out of the two hundred could make it to Divine Realm.

The main reason for this was the Divine Tribulation.

The Divine Tribulation was different from the other tribulations to ascend to become immortal. It was a calamity that focused on the soul and spiritual sense.

When a cultivator was about to break through to Divine Realm, many imaginations would pop into their mind, tugging at their spiritual sense.

These tribulations happened in different ways for everyone, so there wasn’t any rule.

Some saw playmates they used to bully when they were young coming for vengeance, while some saw angels coming to extradite.

Greed, hatred, ignorance, and anger—the illusions were endless. They were ever-changing and hard to guard against.

Once there was someone who spent his whole life in the illusion and successfully entered the Divine Realm.

When he came to his senses, he couldn’t accept that his wife and children, who had been with him for decades, were all imaginary and false. In the end, he ended his life in front of a crowd.

In short, the Divine Tribulation was ominous. That was why most God Realm cultivators stopped cultivating at that point.

To avoid the Divine Tribulation, some cultivators even suppressed their cultivation after reaching the advanced phase of God Realm to prevent them from consummating their cultivation level. They would only try for the Divine Realm when they were near death.

This showed how scary the tribulation was.

The only way to mitigate the Divine Tribulation was simple. It was to go into seclusion.

Former sages and great talents had once said that the Divine Tribulation came from causality.

A person who concentrated on cultivation from the start, avoiding fights, thefts, and making promises or debts would not have to fear the Divine Tribulation.

However, those who had reached God Realm must have survived countless battles and reaped many lives.

It was impossible for them to focus purely on cultivation without greed.

Jonathan had no choice but to make a promise to Nina in exchange for information on Zebedee.

Although he was doing what he did to protect himself, the Divine Tribulation did not care about this.

If Jonathan were to kill Nina now, it would mean trouble for him during his Divine Tribulation.

At that moment, Nina had lost her cultivation and turned into an ordinary person.

However, since she was a cultivator previously, Nina’s body was nourished by her spiritual energy. She wouldn’t get sick that easily compared to others even after she lost her spiritual energy.

Let’s give her a new identity so she can start afresh.
