Lightning Tribulation roared in mid-air, and Yang Zhen stood proudly alone on the cloud. Streams of violent True Essence surged forth, like raging dragons, converging on Yang Zhen. In an instant, thunder roared and True Essence surged like a tide.
Yang Zhen no longer had a single intact panel on his body. With his Void Refinement Realm stage, he had managed to withstand nearly half of the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning Punishment. The sheer terror of this feat is unimaginable.
Elder Wang and the others fled in all directions, but no matter where they ran, terrifying thunder roared in mid-air and crashed down on the four of them. Yang Zhen was already covered in blood from the blast, and the fate of the other four was predictable.
The old woman's last tuft of strong hair on her head had also disappeared, leaving her bald and looking unusually comical.
Elder Wang's teeth were clenched in fury, and with a roar, streams of True Essence surged from his body to contend with the lightning that was falling from the sky.
The other two were not so lucky. With a cry of pain, they fell from mid-air, crashing into the ground and creating a huge crater.
Even so, the Heavenly Tribulation did not overcome the two of them. Every now and then, a terrifying bolt of lightning would strike, causing the two to tremble all over. A burning smell would rise up, making everyone gag.
The Shameless Cat sniffed and exclaimed, "Smells delicious!"
After realizing the source of the fragrance was two experts at the Void Refinement Realm, he immediately gagged, his face turning pale as he cursed, "Damn it, they're weak but still try to show off, they deserve to be struck by lightning!"
In the other direction, where the magic array was located, petals continued to fall slowly from the sky. Suddenly, a seven-colored ray of light appeared in mid-air, shining brightly even under the blazing sun, a truly magnificent sight.
Everyone looked up in shock, staring dumbfounded at the unbelievable scene before them.
On one side, thunder roared, as if it were the end of the world. Yang Zhen, with his proud spirit, exuded boundless vitality. His internal power surged wildly as he used the thunder to cultivate the Dragon-Elephant Prison-Shaking Body.
On one side, a rainbow of colors shone brightly, and a shower of flowers fell from the sky, their fragrance filling the air. It seemed to contain a Dao Rhyme power, leaving people in awe.
A strange phenomenon of yin and yang appeared in mid-air, two completely different phenomena vying for brilliance, resembling yin and yang!
Bai Xuan and Ye Zhiming were completely stunned, staring blankly at everything that was happening before them, muttering to themselves, "This... even the celestial phenomena erupting in the Spirit Road are nothing more than this."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhiming's eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light, and he said to Bai Xuan with great interest, "Tell me, what would happen if we brought Yang Zhen into the Spirit Road?"
Bai Xuan's eyes widened suddenly, he opened his mouth, and then burst into laughter, saying with equal interest, "I suddenly really want to see those people's expressions. No, I must persuade Yang Zhen to go to the Spirit Road. I don't know why, but I suddenly have a feeling that the Spirit Road is almost tailor-made for people like Yang Zhen. Haha, those people usually look down on everyone, but if Yang Zhen goes, he will definitely surprise them."
Ye Zhiming's eyes lit up. He glanced at Yang Zhen in mid-air, then at the hazy, indistinct array, and muttered to himself, "This is going to get interesting, really interesting. Damn it, maybe that bastard Lin Tianli will go too. If he sees that Spirit Maiden Hua has recovered her Spirit Root, I wonder if he'll be so angry he'll vomit blood!"
" Lin Tianli!" Bai Xuan uttered the name slowly and deliberately, his eyes flashing with anger. "If it weren't for this bastard back then, we would have been the ones who reached the pinnacle of Spirit Summit!"
Ye Zhiming chuckled and said, "It's nothing, just a Spirit Road breakthrough. I heard that even Lin Tianli, who reached the Spirit Summit, didn't gain anything. How easy is it to gain any enlightenment at the Spirit Summit?"
Bai Xuan laughed heartily, full of vigor, and said in a clear voice, "If it were so easy to comprehend, how could the Spirit Road attract so many geniuses to gather here? You and I would have no goal to cultivate!"
Ye Zhiming nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "How confident are you this time?"
Bai Xuan's eyes narrowed, and he sneered, "At least if I see Lin Tianli again, I won't just stand by and watch our people fall one by one!"
Ye Zhiming revealed a wild smile and said, "Then let's go and have another go at those bastards?"
"Good!"
The two were full of vigor and high spirits; already extraordinary and refined, they appeared even more flamboyant at this moment.
Suddenly, someone exclaimed, "Gentlemen, did you hear anything?"
These words immediately caused quite a stir.
Thunder roared across the sky, deafeningly loud, and Yang Zhen's occasional furious roars pierced through metal and shattered rocks. Coupled with the wails and curses of Elder Wang and the others, the scene was incredibly noisy.
Even so, many people still heard a strange sound.
Like the tinkling of a spring, the sound is clear and melodious, echoing intermittently in the air.
"It's that seven-colored glow, and there's even a sound coming from within it... Could this be the legendary Heavenly Sound Grand Chant?"
" Heavenly Sound Grand Chant?"
Everyone gasped in shock, exclaiming, "Impossible! It's just repairing a Spirit Root, how could it trigger such a magnificent celestial phenomenon as the Heavenly Sound Grand Chant?"
"That's right, the sound came from the seven-colored glow. I could hear it clearly; it was indeed Heavenly Sound Grand Chant!"
"It's Tower Master Hua! She defied fate and actually succeeded?"
"What kind of Spirit Root has been formed that has caused such a rare celestial phenomenon as the Heavenly Sound Grand Chant?"
Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, Yang Zhen suddenly roared from the location of the Heavenly Tribulation thunderclouds. His entire body seemed to explode, with blood gushing out in all directions, like a rain of blood falling down.
At the same time, Yang Zhen clenched his fists at his sides, Heavenly Wrath, and shouted, "Open it for Laozi!"
boom!
A deafening roar shook the heavens and earth, drowning out the Heavenly Sound Grand Chant. Behind Yang Zhen, a ferocious dragon-elephant beast appeared lifelike, its eyes blood-red, roaring to the Heavenly Wrath just like Yang Zhen. Its deep, deafening roar echoed throughout the heavens, and terrifying forces swept outwards in all directions.
Rumble!
Thunder continued to rumble, and the Heavenly Tribulation grew increasingly fierce, yet it could not strike Yang Zhen. It seemed that even the lifelike dragon and elephant shadows could not get close enough to him.
Amidst the clear distinction between Yin and Yang, Heavenly Tribulation and the Heavenly Sound Grand Chant, with their seven-colored rays of light, divided the world into two parts. As the Heavenly Sound Grand Chant grew louder, the Lightning Tribulation suddenly shifted its position like a snake, abandoning Yang Zhen and charging wildly towards Elder Wang and the others.
"Aaaaaaah!"
Elder Wang's teeth were clenched so tightly his eyes were practically bulging out, and amidst his roars, he looked as if he were about to cry.
The other three were in the same boat, especially the old woman with a shiny scalp, who watched the Heavenly Tribulation rush towards the four of them with a look of despair, her lips turning blue with anger.
This is outrageous!
This is absolutely outrageous!
Originally, it was Yang Zhen's Heavenly Tribulation. That bastard had committed countless sins, and for some reason, he attracted Heavenly Tribulation. This was supposed to be a great thing, but unfortunately, the four of them stumbled upon it and were even implicated by that bastard Yang Zhen.
That's fine, but Yang Zhen, a Nascent Soul Realm, even if he had just broken through to the Void Refinement Realm, was nothing more than an ant. In the face of the Heavenly Tribulation, he had absolutely no chance of survival.
But...
But... why?
Why did Yang Zhen not only successfully cultivate his Void Realm by taking advantage of the Heavenly Tribulation and condense a terrifying-looking dragon-elephant, but also successfully escape the Heavenly Tribulation?
Even escaping the Heavenly Tribulation isn't unacceptable, so why?
Why did the Heavenly Tribulation suddenly become displeased with the four of them?
"Run!" Elder Wang roared, "Run!"
Yang Zhen grinned, his body still covered in blood, yet he had already been rejuvenated by the lightning's baptism. He looked at the four with a sly grin and said, "Hey, don't be in such a hurry to leave!"
