Why Does This Tribulation Lightning Seem a Little Weak? The Demon Emperor and Saints All Appear!

"Rumble..."

In the Honghuang South, thunder rumbled continuously through the scorching Mountain Range Outskirts.

Kong Xuan raised his head and gazed at the thick Tribulation Clouds overhead, unable to stop his body from trembling.

Though his strength was far from weak, beneath that terrifying pressure, he actually felt a trace of helplessness.

"Nine layers of Tribulation Clouds!"

"The Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation!"

"I only devoured a few demons. Did it really have to be this ruthless?"

"How is this a Transformation Thunder Tribulation? This is practically Heavenly Punishment!"

"I've only been born for such a short time. Does heaven truly wish to destroy me?"

"..."

Kong Xuan roared inwardly.

However, with powerful demon experts watching him covetously not far away, he did not dare make a sound.

If they discovered his weakness, would those fellows not become even more pleased with themselves?

Within the Tribulation Clouds, Mo Wen also sensed Kong Xuan's body trembling slightly, and he could not help but grin inwardly.

It seemed the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation was quite intimidating.

Even Kong Xuan, whose vicious aura soared to the heavens, had been frightened into trembling.

But there was no need to worry. He had no intention of killing him.

This Thunder Tribulation might have been a tiny bit grander in scale, but wasn't there still him, the Thunder Tribulation Controller?

If he had not feared being noticed by the hidden experts lurking in the dark, he might have already transmitted his voice to Kong Xuan and told him to relax.

"Rumble..."

At that moment, the first Tribulation Lightning began to condense within the Tribulation Clouds.

The terrifying lightning radiance contained astonishing Destructive Power as it rapidly gathered and transformed into an enormous Thunder Dragon.

"Roar..."

The Thunder Dragon was lifelike, as though it had developed intelligence, and its low roars echoed across heaven and earth.

Then, the Thunder Dragon's body shuddered as it thrust itself out of the Tribulation Clouds and looked down at the grave-faced Kong Xuan below.

"It's coming!"

"Is the first Tribulation Lightning already this terrifying?"

"I'm done for..."

Kong Xuan could not help swallowing, his lips trembling slightly.

Then, a fierce madness surfaced in his eyes. Astonishing Five-Colored Light emerged around him and completely enveloped his body.

"Boom!"

The Thunder Dragon within the Tribulation Clouds crashed down, instantly striking the defensive barrier around Kong Xuan.

The instant the violent lightning radiance collided with the barrier, it explosively spread outward, annihilating all the surrounding grass and trees and turning the area into a terrifying Sea of Lightning.

At the center of that Sea of Lightning, Kong Xuan's body suddenly shook, and an extremely shocked expression appeared in his eyes.

"Something's wrong!"

"Is this really the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation?"

"This power... it seems... it doesn't seem nearly that terrifying!"

In his shock, Kong Xuan could not help looking up through the terrifying Sea of Lightning toward the thick Tribulation Clouds in the sky.

What was going on?

Just moments ago, he had been prepared to risk his life, even prepared to perish.

Yet after the Tribulation Lightning struck, its power was nowhere near as terrifying as he had imagined.

Could it be that the Heavenly Dao pitied him, the Phoenix Race Crown Prince?

Or was some powerful expert secretly aiding him?

Or perhaps it was his mother's blessings?

Within the Tribulation Clouds, Mo Wen's Divine Sense trembled slightly, as though he had already sensed Kong Xuan's confused expression, equal parts nervous and astonished.

This little fellow probably had a head full of question marks right now, didn't he?

Still, Mo Wen restrained his urge to reveal himself and show off, then began condensing the second Tribulation Lightning.

He only hoped Kong Xuan could restrain himself as well and not charge into the clouds to seek death.

That way, he could successfully bring down a Thunder Tribulation and see what rewards were in that gift package!

"He actually withstood the first Tribulation Lightning so easily?"

"Could Kong Xuan have concealed his true strength?"

"Even I might not be able to do so with such ease, would I?"

In the distant sky, the Demon God Shang Yang revealed a trace of shock.

She had not expected Kong Xuan to withstand the first Tribulation Lightning of the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation so easily.

Judging from the might the Tribulation Lightning had displayed just now, she vaguely felt that even she might not have been able to block it so effortlessly.

"Rumble..."

At that moment, another Tribulation Lightning extended from the Tribulation Clouds and blasted toward the still-confused Kong Xuan below.

Kong Xuan had no time to think further. He immediately activated the power within his body and fully reinforced the defensive barrier around himself.

This Tribulation Lightning was even more terrifying in scale than the first, forcing him to become tense once again.

"Boom!"

The second Tribulation Lightning plummeted at high speed and smashed viciously into Kong Xuan's defensive barrier.

The violent impact made the entire earth tremble.

Kong Xuan's defensive barrier also shook violently at that moment, and fine cracks finally appeared across it.

"This... it's still this weak?"

"Could it be that the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation is simply like this?"

Kong Xuan was shocked once more. This second Tribulation Lightning was indeed somewhat stronger than the first.

Yet for him, it still remained within the limits of what he could endure.

It immediately gave him the illusion that the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation had always been like this.

Of course, that thought only flashed through his mind.

He was not a fool. Naturally, he knew there had to be some reason behind this that he could not comprehend.

However, since he could not figure it out, there was no use overthinking it.

But he absolutely could not miss such an opportunity.

Thus, he directly activated his power, drawing in strands of the Tribulation Lightning's might to temper his physical body.

"Buzz..."

As the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation condensed bolts of Tribulation Lightning and blasted them toward Kong Xuan, astonishing buzzing sounds suddenly rang out nearby.

"?"

"So many powerful experts have actually come?"

"Could they all be here for Kong Xuan?"

"These fellows really are enthusiastic!"

Within the Tribulation Clouds, Mo Wen's Divine Sense stirred as he immediately sensed several astonishing auras rapidly approaching.

This made him grow cautious, afraid of revealing some flaw and having his whereabouts discovered.

At that moment, Taiyi was the first to appear.

"He withstood it so easily?"

"Are the Five-Colored Lights around Kong Xuan truly that terrifyingly defensive?"

Seeing Kong Xuan easily withstand the Tribulation Lightning, Taiyi's expression became extremely astonished and grave.

After Taiyi spoke, several auras radiating astonishing Saint's Might rapidly arrived from afar as well.

Taiqing, Tongtian, Yuanshi, and Jieyin appeared one after another.

The Three Pure Ones exchanged glances, and a trace of complicated emotion surfaced in each of their eyes.

To outsiders, the three brothers had arrived together in unity, their presence imposing.

Only they themselves knew that cracks had already formed between them.

Jieyin, who arrived last, wore a grave expression. He directly cupped his hands toward the Three Pure Ones. "The three of you did not come here for the Son of Yuan Feng as well, did you?"

"This child has an affinity with my Western Teachings and should become a disciple of my Western Teachings. I fear you have all made this trip for nothing!"

Jieyin had not expected the Three Pure Ones to appear simultaneously over a single Kong Xuan.

With this, taking Kong Xuan away would not be so easy for him, so he intended to speak first and contend for him.

Otherwise, after Kong Xuan passed the Transformation Thunder Tribulation, he might be jointly shut out by the Three Pure Ones.
