Heavenly Punishment Reappears!

"Hmm?!"

Just as Xia Ping was circulating the Pure Yang Indestructible Art, constantly consolidating his cultivation and mastering his surging power, he suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart.

Rumble.

Above the sky, dark clouds gathered, and the power of thunder faintly brewed within them. It felt as if an existence from the netherworld was staring right at him, shrouding a radius of several dozen miles.

A terrifying aura permeated the surroundings, stimulating every cell in his body, while his sixth sense signaled a dire threat.

"What's going on? Is this a lightning tribulation?!"

Xia Ping was startled. He recalled that when he first fused with the Hell Golden Crow Bloodline, he had encountered a shocking lightning tribulation; a single strike of thunder was enough to instantly flatten a small mountain.

If it hadn't been for the defensive system of Yanhuang University back then, he would have been charred to a crisp long ago.

Now that he had awakened one hundred Hell Golden Crow Cells, it seemed he had touched upon a heavenly taboo, triggering a lightning tribulation meant to strike down a monster that shouldn't exist in this world.

Xia Ping sensed the thunderous power brewing in the sky. Although it wasn't as terrifying as the first time, he estimated there were at least nine layers of tribulation, each one stronger than the last.

If they struck down, even an ordinary grandmaster would be obliterated, leaving not even bones behind.

But as if misfortune wasn't enough, it came in pairs.

The system spoke: "Host, please be advised: the Soul-Devouring Beast avatar has successfully condensed and is emerging from the Heavenly Demon Graveyard. It even possesses the power to control Evil Demons; it may soon dispatch an army to hunt you down."

It reminded Xia Ping.

What?!
