Black and white lightning intertwined like two immense serpents stretching for thousands of miles.
Gao Xian did not know the name of this tribulation lightning, only that it was at the thirteenth-tier level.
Compared to the twelfth-tier Destruction Divine Thunder, the interwoven black-and-white lightning was like taiji itself, where the ultimate yin and ultimate yang thunderbolts merged and gave rise to endless transformations.
It so happened that Buddha Lord Bliss was present when he triggered the lightning tribulation, and Buddha Lord Bliss's aura drew forth the even more powerful Taiji Yin-Yang Tribulation Thunder.

To kill Buddha Lord Bliss, he had also expended a million years of lifespan.
With only several tens of thousands of years of lifespan remaining, it should have been utterly impossible for him to survive the lightning tribulation. Fortunately, he had slain Buddha Lord Bliss before everyone, cowing all cultivators in the human realm in one stroke.
