Tribulation Clouds Gather at the Demon Race's Periphery! Can't Even Withstand a Single Bolt of Tribulation Lightning?
In an instant, that wisp of Mo Wen's Divine Sense merged into the Light Screen condensed from lightning.
At the same time, ripples spread across the Light Screen.
Immediately afterward, Mo Wen felt that wisp of his Divine Sense merge into an exceedingly profound power, connecting to the Heavenly Dao Might.
His mind trembled, and a trace of enlightenment suddenly arose within him.
His Divine Sense instantly appeared in the skies east of the Primordial World, concealed within a mass of pitch-black thunderclouds.
Below the thunderclouds lay the outskirts of the Demon Race.
Atop a towering spirit tree, a Demon Bird a full ten thousand zhang in size suddenly raised its head toward the sky.
"Is this... a thundercloud?"
"No, it's Tribulation Clouds!"
"This is my Transformation Thunder Tribulation!"
"Hahaha... I've finally welcomed my Transformation Thunder Tribulation!"
"..."
The enormous Swallowing Heaven Sparrow froze for a moment before immediately spreading its vast wings and letting out a long cry toward the heavens.
For a time, every living being throughout the Demon Race's territory was alerted by the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow's earthshaking cry. They all turned their heads to look toward the skies over the Demon Race's outskirts.
"Thunder tribulation?"
"It's actually the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow's thunder tribulation!"
"That Little Fellow is far too lucky, isn't he? I've waited for twenty-eight hundred years without seeing one, yet that fellow only waited several hundred years before thunder tribulation descended?"
"Shh... there's another one over there who has waited a full three thousand years. Don't let him hear you!"
"..."
For a time, noisy discussions rose from all corners of the Demon Race.
There was shock, surprise, envy, and naked jealousy.
Demon Emperor Palace!
Di Jun and Taiyi, seated high within the great hall, both revealed traces of surprise.
"The Transformation Thunder Tribulation has finally appeared!"
"For three thousand years, how many of our Demon Race people have been unable to increase their strength!"
"..."
After confirming that it was the Transformation Thunder Tribulation, Di Jun abruptly rose to his feet and looked toward the skies over the Demon Race's outskirts, a complicated expression appearing on his face.
The Demon Race was born in all manner of forms.
Ever since the Heavenly Dao issued its Imperial Decree, countless Demon Race people had failed to welcome thunder tribulation and transform, their strength improving only slowly.
Now that he had suddenly sensed the might of thunder tribulation, even he, the emperor of the Demon Race, could not help but feel a trace of emotion.
"Eldest Brother need not be angry!"
"Ever since the Heavenly Dao issued its Imperial Decree, no Transformation Thunder Tribulation has descended upon the Primordial World. Even Saint disciples have been waiting!"
"Now that thunder tribulation has suddenly appeared in our Demon Race, it shows that the Heavenly Dao favors our Demon Race. Our Demon Race is destined to dominate the Primordial World!"
Taiyi looked at Di Jun with a smile, seemingly believing that the first Transformation Thunder Tribulation appearing in the Demon Race was deliberately arranged by the Heavenly Dao.
With this, the Demon Race's momentum naturally rose by several degrees in its struggle against the Witch Race.
"Hahaha!"
"Second Brother speaks true!"
"How can those simple-minded Witch Race members who do not cultivate the Primordial Spirit be mentioned in the same breath as our Demon Race!"
"Once that Swallowing Heaven Sparrow boy passes his tribulation, I imagine all the Demon Race people will welcome their Transformation Thunder Tribulations..."
Hearing Taiyi's words, Di Jun also burst into laughter.
If not for the sake of appearances, he would surely have gone to the Demon Race's outskirts to observe this first Transformation Thunder Tribulation.
Kunlun Mountain, Three Purities Hall!
Taiqing, Yuanshi, and Tongtian opened their eyes almost at the same time.
Their gazes all turned toward the Demon Race.
"Thunder tribulation?"
"A Transformation Thunder Tribulation has appeared in the Demon Race?"
"The first Tribulation Transcender is actually only a Heavenly Immortal Junior?"
"Could it be that the opportunities of Mystic Gate disciples cannot even compare to those of a Heavenly Immortal Junior?"
"..."
Sensing that the one undergoing tribulation this time was merely a Heavenly Immortal Junior, traces of anger could not help appearing on Yuanshi's face.
As a Saint, which one of the disciples under him was not a being of extraordinary talent and exceptional aptitude?
By all reason, if the Heavenly Dao sent down a Transformation Thunder Tribulation, should it not first appear at the sacred grounds of them Saints of the Heavenly Dao?
And could the Fortune of those disciples of his truly be inferior to that egg-hatched Heavenly Immortal?
"Could it be that this Transformation Thunder Tribulation truly is not under the control of the Heavenly Dao?"
"Otherwise, why would it choose such a Junior and send down the first Transformation Thunder Tribulation?"
Taiqing's brows knitted tightly as well, as though he had fallen into deep thought.
"Eldest Brother, Second Brother!"
"Though this Swallowing Heaven Sparrow's cultivation is weak, it has ultimately received the first Transformation Thunder Tribulation. It should possess a thread of Primordial World Fortune and may enter Little Brother's sect!"
Tongtian laughed loudly, directly reaching out to open a Spatial Rift. He stepped into the void, seemingly intending to rush straight to the Demon Race and take that tribulation-crossing Swallowing Heaven Sparrow into his sect.
"Eldest Brother, aren't you going to rein in Third Brother?"
"Other than a few innate beings, everyone under that Jie Sect is covered in fur and horned, born damp or hatched from eggs!"
"If this continues, will it not throw the traditions of our Profound Gate Three Teachings into disorder?"
"..."
Seeing this, Yuanshi could not help revealing a trace of displeasure.
"Forget it, forget it!"
"Third Brother's actions this time will ultimately exact a price from him in the future. There is no need to concern ourselves with him!"
Taiqing shook his head slightly and once more looked toward the Demon Race, seemingly having already sent out his Divine Sense to investigate the Transformation Thunder Tribulation.
At this moment, it was not only the Saints of the Profound Gate Three Teachings who were paying attention to this matter.
At Western Mount Sumeru, Nuwa Palace, the Witch Ancestral Land, and even the depths of the Nine Hells... powerful experts and Great Powers from every side sensed it.
They all extended their Divine Sense toward the Demon Race.
This concerned the strength of their juniors or their respective forces, even the Fortune of the Primordial World itself. They could not help but take it seriously.
As countless powerful figures focused on this thunder tribulation, the patch of thunderclouds above the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow began expanding at a terrifying speed.
In an instant, those thunderclouds had turned into a vast black mass, blotting out the sky and sun as though they intended to shroud the entire heavens.
"Rumble..."
Startling bolts of lightning flashed within, releasing deafening roars.
At the same time, a terrifying pressure burst from the thunderclouds and swept fiercely down toward the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow below.
"What powerful pressure!"
"Worthy indeed of a Transformation Thunder Tribulation!"
"Come!"
The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow was brimming with vigor, roaring again and again as though awaiting the baptism of Tribulation Lightning.
The Heavenly Dao had once issued an Imperial Decree: Tribulation Lightning could temper the body. This was a Heavenly Dao Blessing!
Boom!
Very soon, a startling bolt of lightning gathered within the thunderclouds overhead.
The lightning rapidly transformed into a thunder serpent, descending from the heavens with wisps of Destructive Power, as though it would annihilate everything below.
"Something's wrong!"
"Why is the might of this thunder tribulation so terrifying?"
"It shouldn't be!"
"My cultivation is only at the Heavenly Immortal realm!"
"How could it be like this?"
"Raaah..."
The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow had only just realized how terrifying the thunder serpent was, but before he could react or summon any treasure, it came whistling down and struck him viciously.
In an instant, darkness filled his vision, and his enormous body plummeted sharply toward the ground below.
The astonishing lightning enveloped his body and frantically invaded him, scorching the feathers all over him black as he let out waves of miserable cries.
"Master, save..."
At that moment, the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow instinctively cried out.
Sensing this scene, Mo Wen's Divine Sense, hidden within the thunderclouds, suddenly felt a trace of guilt.
This truly had not been his intention. He even had the urge to reveal himself and say "sorry" to the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow.
He had merely wanted to test the might of the thunder tribulation and, while he was at it, give the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow a grand gift.
He had not expected this fellow to fail to withstand even a single bolt of Tribulation Lightning. That should not have happened!
This first bolt of Tribulation Lightning was the weakest one. If he could not even endure this, there was no need to mention the remaining lightning bolts.
It seemed that his first attempt at sending down a thunder tribulation had been utterly botched.
