Countless bolts of tribulation lightning came crashing down like flashes of lightning, giving Ye Xiwen no time to dodge. Nor had he intended to evade them. Though the God King Tribulation was terrifying, it was precisely because of that that it was ideal for tempering his fleshly body, transforming it into a God King Dharma Body of unprecedented strength.
At the same time, he charged downward toward the barrier and allowed the tribulation lightning to scour him.
Most of the tribulation lightning struck Ye Xiwen directly, but a considerable portion landed upon the barrier, bombarding the sturdy boundary until it shook madly.
Ordinarily, a barrier like this could never be shaken by a God King Tribulation, because it had been set up by an expert far beyond the Initial Stage of the Seal King Realm. Yet Ye Xiwen's God King Tribulation was anything but ordinary, forcibly shaking the barrier.
Cracks began to appear across the barrier, like glass struck by a heavy blow, spreading into dense spiderweb-like fractures.
And those fractures continued to deepen.
Under the baptism of the tribulation lightning, Ye Xiwen was also completing his transformation bit by bit. It came as naturally as water flowing into its channel. He had long since surpassed the combat strength of the Seal King Realm; now, he was merely bringing his cultivation and realm up to speed. It was nothing remarkable.
After a long while, Ye Xiwen finally opened his eyes. Above his head, the Heavenly Origin Mirror erupted with a blood-colored radiance, and a figure that was neither quite dragon nor quite carp flew out. It was the Golden-Backed Dragon Carp King. Over these ten years, it too had devoured vast amounts of Silent Extinction Immortal Qi and had long completed its transformation.
Now was the time to use it.
