There were a total of two possibilities for triggering a heaven's calamity.
Firstly, he had committed a heinous crime, and even the heaven and earth could no longer bear to watch, and wanted to erase him with the heaven's calamity. Secondly, he was too strong, and had surpassed the limit of the corresponding cultivation level. He had broken the balance, and the heaven and earth would also send down the heaven's calamity.
But the two were different.
In the case of the former, no matter how strong the victim of the tribulation was, it would be useless. That was because the heaven's calamity would get stronger and stronger, and would only stop when the victim of the tribulation had been killed.
In this world, who could be stronger than Heavenly Dao?
Even the Great Emperor couldn't. Otherwise, the Great Emperor wouldn't have died of old age.
If it was the latter, however, there was still a chance of survival.
