Was even the five-nine heavenly tribulation already this formidable?
Rumble...
In that flash of lightning, nine massive heavenly lightning bolts descended from the ink-black clouds overhead toward Qiao Huizhu's head.
Qiao Huizhu likewise deployed her supreme-grade spirit artifact.
Open...
The Ironwood Shield burst open with a roar.
This time, however, it failed to hold.
The heavenly lightning struck with a boom, punching straight through the defenses formed by the Ironwood Shield.
Of course, the Ironwood Shield had consumed more than half the lightning's energy, but the remaining power still struck Qiao Huizhu hard enough to make her vomit blood.

Yet even then, the black clouds overhead did not disperse.
They continued gathering heavenly lightning.

"Ice Essence Talisman..." He Pingsheng roared. "Ice Essence Talisman!"
The Ice Essence Talisman was a third-grade talisman.
The shield it formed upon activation would certainly be able to block the sixth wave of heavenly lightning.
However, it needed to be activated in advance.
With Qiao Huizhu's current divine sense, she could not possibly activate it without at least ten breaths.
Fortunately, the sixth wave of heavenly lightning was still brewing.
"Open..."
Several breaths later, Qiao Huizhu activated the third-grade Ice Essence Talisman.
"A six-nine heavenly tribulation. Such extraordinary talent!" In the air, the Nascent Soul Realm woman gazed at the tribulation clouds and said calmly, "If I recall correctly, the last six-nine heavenly tribulation in Redstone City was a hundred and sixty-four years ago!"
The difference between a five-nine heavenly tribulation and a six-nine heavenly tribulation was far more than a single level.
They were as far apart as heaven and earth.
The difference lay neither in spirit roots nor in talent.
It lay in fortune.
It lay in the favor of the Heavenly Dao.
Rumble...
The heavenly tribulation rained down
