An Overwhelming Urge to Show Off-Trying to Break Through the Tribulation Clouds? Mo Wen: Don't Do Anything Stupid!

"Rumble..."

From within the thick Tribulation Clouds above, waves of terrifying thunderous roars had already begun to sound.

Strands of violent lightning flickered in and out of sight within the Tribulation Clouds, releasing astonishing pressure that swept directly toward Guang Chengzi below.

The aura around Guang Chengzi surged as his mana soared repeatedly, forcefully withstanding that terrifying pressure. He appeared rather calm and composed.

Meanwhile, within the Tribulation Clouds, Mo Wen's sliver of Divine Sense carefully controlled the Thunder Tribulation, terrified that something might go wrong and expose him.

He was also afraid that the Thunder Tribulation would be too powerful and strike Guang Chengzi dead, provoking a Saint.

He was currently performing high-risk work with no idea what reward he might receive. He had to be cautious—more cautious than ever.

As for Guang Chengzi's arrogant demeanor below, he chose to ignore it outright.

As a disciple of a Saint's lineage and the foremost second-generation disciple of the Chan Sect, Guang Chengzi was ultimately exceptionally gifted and of extraordinary origins. Some arrogance was understandable.

"Rumble..."

At this moment, the Tribulation Clouds had fully formed, and the first Tribulation Lightning had begun to gather.

Under Mo Wen's careful control, the first Tribulation Lightning was somewhat weaker than a normal Seven-Nine Thunder Tribulation. It was his way of giving the two Saints below a little face.

Boom!

Before long, the first Tribulation Lightning emerged from the Tribulation Clouds, transforming into a terrifying lightning serpent as it descended from the heavens.

Sensing this, Guang Chengzi finally put away his lofty, domineering expression and cautiously activated his mana, raising a defensive barrier.

No matter what, he knew the outcomes of the two previous Thunder Tribulations suffered by the demon race.

He had finally encountered his Transformation Thunder Tribulation. He did not want anything to go wrong at this crucial moment because of his own carelessness.

If that happened, it would not merely be his own embarrassment; he would also disgrace the Chan Sect and Teacher.

Boom!

In an instant, the first Tribulation Lightning crashed down upon Guang Chengzi.

Violent lightning surged madly. Even though its power had been weakened, it remained incomparably terrifying.

The astonishing force made Guang Chengzi's defensive barrier tremble violently, and dense cracks immediately spread across it.

Guang Chengzi's body jolted, and his expression instantly turned solemn.

However, this was only the first Tribulation Lightning. Though terrifying to Guang Chengzi, he still managed to withstand it.

He even began absorbing strands of lightning into his body to temper his flesh.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

"..."

The Seven-Nine Thunder Tribulation had seven levels in total, with nine Tribulation Lightnings in each level.

The nine Tribulation Lightnings of the first level came at extremely short intervals, raining down one after another as though they wished to finish as quickly as possible and call it a day.

Their terrifying power battered Guang Chengzi's defensive barrier until it swayed on the verge of collapse, nearly shattering several times.

The area around Guang Chengzi had already become a Sea of Lightning.

Terrifying lightning continued to spread, covering an ever-widening area as if it intended to engulf all of Kunlun Mountain.

Even so, the nine Tribulation Lightnings of the first level ultimately failed to injure Guang Chengzi.

In fact, Guang Chengzi gained a slight insight. He repeatedly drew the residual force of the Tribulation Lightning into his body, causing his aura to begin soaring.

"Good!"

"To use Tribulation Lightning to temper his body so quickly—he truly is my disciple!"

Seeing this, Yuanshi could not help but laugh loudly.

Saints cared about nothing more than a breath of pride and a shred of face, did they not?

Guang Chengzi was bringing him glory, so naturally he was delighted.

"Second Brother, this Guang Chengzi truly possesses extraordinary aptitude!"

"In this elder brother's view, he may even have a chance of surviving an Eight-Nine Thunder Tribulation!"

Taiqing nodded slightly, seemingly pleased to see the first disciple of the Profound Gate Three Teachings pass the Transformation Thunder Tribulation.

"Hahaha!"

"Eldest Brother overpraises him!"

"Though I dare not say that my disciple can compare with the disciple of Eldest Brother's Human Sect, he was nonetheless carefully selected by me!"

"Compared to those furred, horned, damp-born, egg-born creatures under Third Brother's tutelage, he is far superior!"

"My disciple should have no problem passing this Seven-Nine Thunder Tribulation!"

"Eldest Brother, why don't we return to the Three Purities Hall to rest for a while and wait until the Thunder Tribulation is over before investigating its secrets?"

While praising himself, Yuanshi glanced toward Tongtian, his words carrying a trace of mockery.

Naturally, he had not forgotten the purpose of petitioning the Heavenly Dao this time.

Thus, he smiled faintly at Taiqing, seemingly intending to retreat into the Three Purities Hall and investigate the Transformation Thunder Tribulation in secret.

In his view, with two Saints like them present, even if Guang Chengzi encountered any problem, they would have more than enough time to save him.

"Very well!"

Taiqing glanced at the Tribulation Clouds overhead, then nodded slightly and headed toward the Three Purities Hall together with Yuanshi.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

"..."

By this time, Guang Chengzi had already begun facing the second level of Tribulation Lightning.

The power of this level was naturally more terrifying than the first. Strands of Destructive Power mixed within the violent lightning, forcing Guang Chengzi to repeatedly activate the mana within his body and continuously reinforce his defenses.

At the same time, he noticed that Yuanshi and Taiqing had already returned to the Three Purities Hall.

This stirred an inexplicable sense of disappointment within him. It seemed that Teacher and his senior uncle did not value his tribulation as much as he had imagined.

By rights, should they not at least wait until he had passed the Transformation Thunder Tribulation before returning to the Three Purities Hall?

"Have I not done well enough?"

Guang Chengzi muttered to himself. His aura immediately shook, releasing an even more terrifying presence.

At the same time, he slowly raised his head and looked toward the Tribulation Clouds above.

"Though this Tribulation Lightning is terrifying, regrettably, it poses no threat to me!"

"Since that is the case, I shall break through these Tribulation Clouds and directly pass this Transformation Thunder Tribulation, letting the Myriad Races of the Primordial World witness the might of a Chan Sect Disciple!"

"..."

An idea arose in Guang Chengzi's heart. He wanted to draw the attention of more powerful beings and make them marvel at his imposing presence.

With that thought, the corners of his mouth curled upward slightly, and the defensive barrier around him abruptly expanded.

He began moving forward, stepping against one Tribulation Lightning after another as he made his way, step by step, toward the Tribulation Clouds in the sky.

"Senior Brother is mighty!"

"Senior Brother is domineering!"

"Senior Brother's might shall shake the Myriad Races!"

"..."

Seeing Guang Chengzi's actions, the Chan Sect Disciples could not help but feel a surge of pride. They shouted loudly, seemingly cheering him on.

"Hm?"

"What is this guy trying to do?"

"Big brother, just undergo your tribulation—don't do anything stupid!"

"Didn't they say Chan Sect Disciples were all well-behaved?"

"Don't go learning how to court death from that Long-Arm Ape!"

"..."

Within the Tribulation Clouds, Mo Wen's Divine Sense naturally sensed this scene.

It gave him quite a fright. He feared that Guang Chengzi was about to do something stupid and imitate the Long-Arm Ape in courting death.

If that happened, would he not be put in an extremely difficult position?

What if he could not suppress the anger in his heart and defended himself properly by striking Guang Chengzi half to death? Who would bear the responsibility then?

With that thought, his Divine Sense trembled. He once again activated the Tribulation Clouds and sent down the third level of Tribulation Lightning.

This time, he did not deliberately weaken the Tribulation Lightning. Instead, he intended to let Guang Chengzi experience its terror and retreat in the face of difficulty.
