Lin Heng was struck squarely by the first bolt of heavenly lightning.
This prompted many cultivators from Four Seas and Eight Wastelands who were at odds with him to hurl sarcastic remarks.
However, the mockery stopped abruptly before it could escalate further.
That's it?
Lin Heng's calm yet disdainful voice immediately silenced the cultivators watching the tribulation.
Everyone turned to look at Lin Heng.
Beneath the thunderclouds lay Lin Heng, who had just been struck by lightning.
He reappeared before everyone's eyes after the explosion.
Upon seeing this, those who had been making sarcastic remarks couldn't help but widen their eyes.
He was struck on the head by lightning, yet he's completely unharmed?
Look closely, don't look at things like brains exploding.
Even her hairstyle wasn't messed up at all.
This scene shocked them.
"Could this be a fake?"
"Holy crap! Since Lin Heng arrived in the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands, so many people have been protecting him, and now even the heavenly lightning is protecting him?"
"Don't rush, this is just the first bolt of heavenly lightning, maybe it's just an appetizer?"
The surrounding chatter had not yet subsided.
'Boom!'
Amidst the churning thunderclouds, a golden light once again descended from the sky.
Its awe-inspiring divine might commanded the submission of all living beings in heaven and earth.
The cultivators around who had not yet reached the Eternal Ages Cosmic Origin Realm all lowered their heads, not daring to face the power of the heavenly lightning.
Despite their curiosity, they only dared to slightly raise their heads and glance ahead.
The speed of lightning is extremely fast.
It had just landed from the thunderclouds.
In the blink of an eye, it struck Lin Heng again.
However, this time was the same as before.
Lin Heng simply stood there, without showing the slightest sign of defensiveness.
This caused everyone watching to pause in surprise.
Could it be?
When Lin Heng just endured the first bolt of heavenly lightning.
It wasn't that he didn't realize what was happening.
Or was it intentional, letting the lightning strike him?
This is heavenly lightning used for tribulation.
Is Lin Heng really that confident?
The question continued to echo in everyone's minds.
A loud bang interrupted everyone's thoughts.
The lightning struck Lin Heng once more.
The explosion shook the very air.
Now look below Lin Heng.
The aftershocks of the explosion caused the sea to boil, creating thousands of layers of waves.
The peaceful sea revealed its ferocious face.
Beneath the waves, a dark whirlpool, like an ancient behemoth, swallowed countless sea creatures whole.
Lin Heng was above the vortex.
After the explosion, everyone looked over.
"How could this be? He withstood two bolts of heavenly lightning with his bare body and is completely unharmed?"
A chorus of exclamations rose and fell.
Lin Heng stood proudly in mid-air, raised his hand and patted his shoulder; he didn't look like he had been hurt at all.
The fact that Lin Heng's situation had come to the attention of the people in the Heavenly Star Sea Region finally brought them a sigh of relief.
Dijiang chuckled softly.
"It seems that the master has some knowledge of this Lei Jie."
"Could it be that the old master also survived this Lei Jie back then?"
After Dijiang finished speaking, Tian Wu picked up where he left off and said:
Have you all forgotten?
"Before breaking through to the Eternal Ages Cosmic Origin Realm, the old master left alone for a period of time."
"When the old master returned, he had already reached the Eternal Ages Cosmic Origin Realm."
The Twelve Ancestral Witches would naturally not forget this memory.
Thinking of this, all Twelve Ancestral Witches laughed.
"It seems the old master left alone to undergo his tribulation."
"We still firmly believed in our old master's words, thinking that he broke through at the exact moment he left. It seems that he said this on purpose so that we wouldn't worry."
"If the old master truly survived this Lei Jie, then it must have been mentioned in the inheritance passed down to him. In that case, there's no need to worry about the master's tribulation."
They were all very clear about what Mu Chen did.
If you really are considering grooming a successor.
That would definitely involve taking all aspects into consideration.
Since the successor must carry on his path of cultivation.
They will inevitably suffer the same Lei Jie.
Given this, how could Mu Chen not have made preparations for his successor?
The group, who had been filled with worry, were now completely relaxed.
If Mu Chen can survive, how could Lin Heng still be in danger?
Look again towards the space where Lin Heng is.
Just as the Twelve Ancestral Witches were speaking...
Several more bolts of lightning struck down from the sky.
Nine bolts of heavenly lightning had struck Lin Heng in total.
Without exception, Lin Heng endured all of them with his bare body without suffering any harm.
This kind of tribulation also opened the eyes of those who watched.
Who doesn't know the terror of undergoing tribulation?
Which one didn't unleash all their prepared resources from the very beginning?
Who would dare to take a direct hit like Lin Heng did?
'Boom!'
Within the thunderclouds, thunder continued to fall.
It seemed that Lei Jie and Lin Heng were locked in a fierce battle.
The frequency and speed of the lightning strikes were both slightly faster than before.
A series of bolts of lightning struck down.
Less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Thirty-nine bolts of lightning have already struck.
After Lin Heng used his body to withstand the thirty-ninth bolt of heavenly lightning.
The numbness and slight pain in his body made Lin Heng realize that he probably couldn't continue using his body to undergo the tribulation.
Lin Heng then formed a set of hand seals.
Then, six beams of light shot out from his palms.
Immediately following below Lin Heng, six beams of light of different colors flashed simultaneously from different locations.
The six beams of light shot into the sky simultaneously.
As the beam of light rose to an altitude of 10,000 meters, the rays began to connect with each other.
Soon, a hexagonal light array appeared and enveloped Lin Heng within it.
Seeing that Lin Heng had finally used the formation.
Hermoz, watching from afar, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course, he wasn't worried about Lin Heng.
"Fortunately, this guy finally managed to use the formation."
"If it were truly all the heavenly lightning, he would withstand it with his own body."
"I even wonder if, after his breakthrough, his body will be able to withstand attacks from top-tier spiritual treasures."
Although he was tens of thousands of miles away from the place where Lin Heng was undergoing his tribulation.
However, the aura emanating from there allowed Hermoz to clearly sense the terror of Lin Heng's Lei Jie.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Lin Heng withstood the first thirty-nine heavenly lightning bolts with his own body.
That doesn't mean the heavenly lightning is weak.
Even Hermoz could make a clear judgment.
Even if we were to switch him with Lin Heng's position.
Whether one can withstand thirty-nine bolts of heavenly lightning with their own body is a question.
Dasiwoba, standing to the side, shook his head helplessly.
"This is most likely related to Lin Heng's five-layered universe."
"After all, reaching our level is about competing with the power of the universe."
"The stronger the universe, the stronger one's own power."
Lin Heng possesses five layers of the universe.
Even though I'm only at the Indestructible Realm right now.
"But judging from his past combat prowess..."
"It has long surpassed the Imperishable Realm Great Perfection by a considerable margin."
"Perhaps some of the help Mu Chen left for him was among it."
"But if he himself wasn't strong enough, how could he have done that?"
