Heavenly Tribulation

A **Heavenly Tribulation** is a special event that occurs due to the Heaven's Will. It is a result of someone wanting to become an Immortal, having enraged the heavens, or due to other circumstances.

## **Information**

In general, Heavenly Tribulations occur when one tries to become an Immortal. They tribulation taker will have to survive nine strikes of Heavenly Lighting that the Heavenly Tribulation will throw at them, each stronger than the last. Only after surviving all nine strikes will they be allowed to move forward. However, if one has enraged the Heavens, has a special constitution, or has karmic sin, their Heavenly Tribulation may change to become more destructive and powerful.

## **Characteristics**

The eye of the tribulation is the 3 kilometer radius in the center, anyone who enters it while a cultivator is undergoing a heavenly tribulation will be seen as an enemy by the Heavens, regardless if their intentions are to help or harm the cultivator undergoing it. From 3 to 27 kilometer is the zone of Heavens' jurisdiction. The 27 kilometer radius of the tribulation is also called the ascendance zone, where immortals are locked in after they pass their Heavenly Tribulation. Davis Loret can use Fallen Heaven outside of that 27 kilometer radius.

The arrival of the crimson clouds signifies a sinner's tribulation that even the Heavens loathe.

### **Normal Heavenly Tribulation**

The normal heavenly tribulation with no special features.

### **Destructive Heavenly Tribulation**

Heavenly Tribulations experienced by those the heavens wishes to destroy. The prowess of the Heavenly Tribulation is higher than normal. Spreads 30,000 kilometers in range. The power of the tribulation increases by one.

### **Annihilative Heavenly Tribulation**

Experienced by those the Heavens wishes to annihilate and get rid of. Not only is the range it covers vast, able to cover a providence, around 90,000 kilometers in range. The appearance of an Annihilative Immortal Tribulation marks the appearance of an Anarchic Divergent. Nine out of ten times, Anarchic Divergents won't survive this type of tribulation. Only five Anarchic Divergents have survived their tribulation in the First Haven World. The power of the tribulation increases by two.

Annihilative Heavenly Tribulation are extremely bad to the body and soul. At the end of the Annihilative Heavenly Tribulation, Paragon Magical Beasts will appear. However, out of the Twelve Paragon Magical Beasts, only a certain number will appear for the tribulation taker depending on their weakness. It was unheard of for all 12 Paragon Magical Beasts to appear until Davis' immortal tribulation. Utmost, it had been recorded about 6 Paragon Magical Beasts manifesting. It is seen that it is possible to pass an Annihilative Heavenly Tribulation if only 3 or less Paragon Magical Beasts appear.

According to the Celestial Transcendent, the Twelve Paragon Magical Beasts are nothing but remnants will, except the Dragon, who is the only one who retains its full will. According to him, however, where the other Paragon Magical Beast to will it, they'd be able to break free of the heaven's control.

As seen with the Wolf Paragon Magical Beast Heavenly Lighting Manifestation, it seems that the 12 Paragon Magical Beasts seem to be rather enslaved by the Heavens' suppressive curse. It makes them slaves that follow the heaven's will, however, they can resist as shown with the Wolf Paragon Magical Beast during Davis' Annihilative Heavenly Tribulation when it decided to defect and help Davis survive by taking care of the Hydra Paragon Beast. However, the Heaven's backlash caused it to disappear.

### **Immortal King Heavenly Tribulation**

The Immortal King Heavenly Tribulation is the heavenly tribulation all Immortals wishing to become Immortal Kings must go through. The first three strikes are made up of heavenly lighting, afterward, there is a one-minute interval where heavenly wind will try to strike down the target with nine strikes. For that reason, an Immortal King Heavenly Tribulation has twelve strikes, but for certain races, there could be more intricacies or tribulations involved.

## **Types of Heavenly Tribulations**

### **Heavenly Lighting Heavenly Tribulation**

The common Heavenly Tribulation always uses Heavenly Lighting to show its might. Unless other special factors are present, only heavenly lighting will be shown.

### **Heavenly Flames Heavenly Tribulation**

When one has a lot of karmic sin, the heavens will throw at them wisps of Heavenly Flames which can either be destroyed or taken. If one chooses to be burned by the Heavenly Flames, they will be cleansed of their Karmic Sin as the Heavenly Flames purify them.

### **Heavenly Wind Heavenly Tribulation**

Most commonly known for as the Heavenly Tribulation that all Immortals have to go through to become an Immortal King. It is nine strikes of heavenly wind.

## **Heavenly Tribulation Factors**

### **Eighteen Strikes Punitive Tribulation**

A Unique Tribulation Factor that only some species of a particular attribute or anything mildly related to it experience. To receive so many strikes, even if one could match its prowess, they wouldn't necessarily survive such an onslaught. Dark-attributed and Death-attributed wolves seem to have proliferated less due to this type of tribulation, which makes it hard to survive.

## **Trivia**

* Heavenly Tribulations invoke feelings of reverence and fear toward the heavens.
