The poor Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness hadn't eaten cooked food in ages; the aroma of roasted meat wafted out, and his mouth watered as he spoke.
When Yang Zhen turned around, the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness was hurriedly wiping his mouth. Upon seeing Yang Zhen's gaze, he glared at him and said, "I mean, what is this thing you've roasted? It smells quite delicious!"
"Cumin flavored, crunchy!" Yang Zhen glanced at the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness, shook his head, and said, "But you can't eat it yet."
Upon hearing that the meat couldn't be eaten, the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness stopped drooling and instead became curious about the array Yang Zhen had inscribed.
"Young man, what kind of formation is this? It can actually convert the power of thunder and lightning in the heavens and earth. It's truly a masterpiece."
Everyone has their own area of expertise; even the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness, though a Great Emperor, doesn't know everything.
Take the concept of array formations as an example. Yang Zhen's current mastery of array formations is almost on par with that of programmers on the Blue Planet. A truly Niu Bi programmer, while not necessarily able to do whatever they want, can create a world by typing out a network environment and a keyboard.
Yang Zhen felt this way now, able to do whatever he wanted. All sorts of formations, through the changes in the Heaven and Earth True Runes, could achieve true versatility.
With an expression of enjoyment on his face, Yang Zhen, under the astonished gaze of the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness, brought out a grand chair and sat down leisurely.
The Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness was completely panicked.
Has the world changed to this extent?
Despite being World-Destroying Heavenly Punishment, heaven-crushing being, Yang Zhen calmly sat down and even started grilling meat.
That's not all. Look what this bastard is doing. He's lying on a very comfortable-looking chair, holding a large palm-leaf fan, swaying it back and forth, fanning himself, and casually controlling a magical array with his hand gestures.
In mid-air, terrifying shockwaves surged and churned, and endless lightning connected heaven and earth, crashing down to the ground like long black rivers.
The land was a scene of devastation, a veritable wasteland, truly aptly describing the black soil emitting bluish smoke.
Everyone stared in disbelief at the terrifying scene before them, looking up at the black clouds where the World-Destroying Heavenly Punishment, like a rain of lightning, nearly shattered the entire world.
"This... this is incredible..."
"My God, I never imagined that I would witness such a horrific scene of destruction in my lifetime. This is an apocalyptic catastrophe."
" The Great Emperor! It must be the Great Emperor undergoing tribulation! If it's not the Great Emperor, Laozi dare to rush up and shout 'I'll punish you with lightning!'"
Everyone around shuddered and stared at the burly, bearded man with strange expressions.
The bearded man's face was flashing with excitement, and he trembled with excitement. His hair stood on end due to the power of the lightning, as if his faith would be shattered if it weren't for the Great Emperor undergoing tribulation inside.
The Shameless Cat let out a "ooh" and jumped onto the bearded man's shoulder, saying, "Kid, I'll remember you. Listen up, if a kid named Yang Zhen comes out later, you'll have to go up and have a couple of drinks with him."
The bearded man was startled. Upon seeing it was the Shameless Cat, he curled his lip and said, "Who do Laozi have here? It's just you, Shameless Cat. You're just as notorious as Yang Zhen. But cheeky as you may be, do you really think everyone is stupid? If Yang Zhen survives his tribulation in this situation, what's wrong with Laozi taking a sip?"
Oh my!
That's incredible!
The Shameless Cat looked completely bewildered. Are all guys this impulsive nowadays?
Laughter erupted from the surroundings, which temporarily eased the tense atmosphere.
Dark clouds gathered, and the thunderous lightning seemed to have been enraged by something, becoming increasingly violent.
Yang Zhen stretched, tossed the roasted meat to the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness, and a determined look flashed across his face as he said, "Fellow villager, the meat's cooked for you. The responsibility of protecting the Dharma rests on your shoulders now."
"Cube Forest, you're holed up again, can't even wash yourself."
Looking at the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness with his mouth Liu You, Yang Zhen had a strange feeling that he had entrusted himself to the wrong person.
"Little chick, why are you standing up?"
Seeing Yang Zhen stretch and arch his back, the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness's face immediately showed surprise.
Yang Zhen waved his hand and said, "It's a tribulation after all, you should at least show some respect. Take advantage of the current loosening of the restrictions here, don't just sit around, hurry up and catch up. If you miss this opportunity, you'll have to work hard for another ten years!"
Upon hearing this Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness hurriedly tried it out, and his eyes immediately gleamed.
When two tigers fight, one will surely be injured.
Under this World-Destroying Heavenly Punishment, the restrictions on heaven and earth were actually weakened considerably.
Nowadays, let alone arching, they can even shoot upwards and break through.
roar--!
A series of earth-shattering roars echoed, as if thousands of ferocious beasts were howling.
Seeing that Yang Zhen was about to rush out, the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness hurriedly said, "Kid, just do it for show, don't take it too seriously. Power is a fickle thing, just cultivate it slowly. There's nothing wrong with being low-key. Just don't anger the World-Destroying Heavenly Punishment again!"
In the eyes of the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness, Yang Zhen's tribulation this time was almost nothing to worry about.
With that strange formation in place, plus the odd restrictions here, Yang Zhen could easily pass through the tribulation while lying down.
However, Yang Zhen insisted on giving a "gift," which the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness understood, since only by undergoing the baptism of thunder could one gain even greater power.
However... what almost made the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness choke was that Yang Zhen seemed to ignore his words.
Under the utterly bewildered gaze of the Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness, Yang Zhen descended below the surface, took a deep breath, and roared with his hands on his hips, "Come on, little brother, let's have some fun! We meet again, don't we? You're such a coward! Don't you have anything more powerful?"
The voice was deafening. The Great Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness, who had just been thinking about how to persuade Yang Zhen to keep a low profile, staggered and then coughed violently.
I choked!
"Come on, little bro..."
"Ah, little brother..."
A series of sounds, like the roar of a primordial Primordial Wilderness, surged out in all directions.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Zhen burst out of the ground, flipped 360 degrees in mid-air, and even did a grandmaster's dance, before fiercely raising his middle finger towards the sky.
The endless bolts of lightning that were about to strike suddenly shuddered and withdrew, replaced by a roar that pierced the Nine Heavens.
roar--!
Aww--!
We don't know if it was because of anger, but this earth-shattering roar even cracked a bit towards the end.
A terrifying, overwhelming flame burst forth from the sky, roaring and crackling, before transforming into a Heaven and Earth Ferocious Beast.
A black, Heaven and Earth Ferocious Beast!
My goodness!
When Yang Zhen appeared, everyone was stunned. They stared blankly at Yang Zhen in mid-air, at the black Heaven and Earth Ferocious Beast in the sky, and then... looked at the offerings beside them!
The next moment, almost everyone made a synchronized movement: collecting the offerings!
"Really... really is Yang Zhen?"
Who would have thought that the person who caused such a commotion was actually Yang Zhen, and not some Great Emperor!
Everyone's faces showed shock and utter bewilderment.
That would be incredibly embarrassing for him.
The offerings were so numerous and plentiful; how could they possibly be collected all at once?
The Shameless Cat roared, its eyes blazing, and said, "This is outrageous! Taking back tribute? Hey you, did you bring the audio-visual stone? Write it down! Damn it, I'll settle accounts with them later!"
