- Chapter 451: The Attracted Lightning Robbery_2
Seeing that the fourth tribulation lightning was noticeably weaker, Lin Yi couldn’t help but recall a certain saying prevalent among the lore of Huaxia, which speaks of the crucial points as three, six, and nine. He supposed that this heavenly tribulation might follow the same logic.
In the current cultivation world, nine is considered the supreme number. Normal human cultivators would face nine tribulation thunders during their crossing, with the power of three, six, and nine being much stronger than the others.
However, this animal transformation tribulation only had five tribulation thunders, thus making the fifth one the strongest.
Lin Yi surmised that since his Creation Method comprised ten levels in each realm, it could be possible that he might have to face ten tribulation thunders during his crossing.
White Painting weathered the fourth tribulation lightning with sheer determination, resulting in worsening injuries and a bloodied top of the head.
The sight of White Painting induced a sense of dread in the three guardian beasts and Zhi Ling—crossing the tribulation was truly horrifying.
Within the storm clouds of the heavenly tribulation, the fifth tribulation thunder was slowly forming. The clouds became even darker, obscuring the surrounding light and casting an oppressive, gloomy pallor over the sky.
The thunder and lightning stirring within were intensifying, with massive bolts occasionally streaking across the clouds, accompanied by deafening roars.
At this moment, Lin Yi activated the Eye of Emptiness once more, observing the thunder and lightning laws nestled within the clouds. This time, he saw a more comprehensive law, thereby gaining greater insights.
As his understanding of the thunder and lightning laws deepened, the thunder and lightning element within his golden core became more active.
Eventually, the movement of the thunder and lightning grew stronger, even merging with the wind element at the periphery, forming a thunderstorm. This made the automatic running speed of the golden core accelerate continuously.
Witnessing this internal phenomena, Lin Yi couldn’t help but be somewhat amazed. Nevertheless, he wasn’t overly concerned. It wasn’t a deliberate action, but a state formed naturally by the internal elements—likely due to the effect of crisis prediction.
The gestation of the fifth tribulation thunder took a very long time, causing the three spirit beasts waiting at the side to grow restless. The Golden Ape, in particular, scratched its head in annoyance, “This damn thunder is too slow, it’s like waiting for death.”
Suddenly, the thunder and lightning activity grew more intense, indicating that the final tribulation thunder was about to strike.
At this moment, Lin Yi shouted downwards, “White Painting, you must succeed in crossing the tribulation! I am still waiting to see whether you transform into a little girl or an old granny.”
White Painting turned its head, nodded, and gazed at the storm clouds above. It opened its mouth and roared, as if declaring war on the heavenly tribulation.
Following this roar, the fifth tribulation thunder struck. This bolt of lightning was more than twice the size of the third, and the destruction it radiated was palpable.
The descent of this thunderbolt made Zhi Ling, out of fear, jump onto Lin Yi and hide tightly in his pocket.
Seeing this, the Golden Ape also intended to come over, but was ruthlessly pushed away by Lin Yi. “You’re a big ape, stop leaning towards me, endure it yourself.”
The light from the fifth tribulation thunder almost lit up half the sky, making it hard for the three spirit beasts to even open their eyes.
However, Lin Yi and Zhang Dao Xuan weren’t greatly affected, their eyes glinting with spiritual light, as they watched White Painting’s tribulation crossing.
During its descent, however, this bolt of lightning unexpectedly forked and headed towards the summit where they were located.
Seeing this, Zhang Dao Xuan hastily activated the array. However, the moment this bolt separated from the fifth tribulation thunder and met the array’s resistance, it transformed into thunder and lightning elements and passed through the array’s shield.
The defensive array was meant to shield against damaging spells, and wouldn’t block the entry of certain elements, such as the five elements that could be absorbed from the outside within the array.
Unless it was a completely sealed array that prevented any external elements from entering.
“Everyone be careful.” As a special soul body, Zhang Dao Xuan naturally saw these elements and warned with a solemn expression.
This was his first time seeing a tribulation thunder fork during a tribulation crossing. They didn’t do anything to assist White Painting, Lin Yi had just shouted a little — could it have triggered the heavenly tribulation’s punishment mechanism?
However, even if someone aids the person Crossing Tribulation, it will only make the power of Heavenly Tribulation stronger, the range will not change at all, let alone, dividing a thunderbolt to pursue the helper.
Zhi Ling was too frightened to cringe in her small pouch, and the three spirit beasts hid behind Zhang Dao Xuan.
Observing the rapid rotation of the Golden Core within his body, Lin Yi guessed something, “Master, don’t worry, this might be an opportunity.”
After speaking, he faced the Thunder and Lightning Element transformed by the minor tribulation thunder. The Thunder and Lightning Element quickly entered his body, shaking him so violently that he felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
Then, these Thunder and Lightning Elements were completely absorbed into the Golden Core and transformed back into tribulation thunder, merging with the Thunder and Lightning Element within.
The Thunderstorm formed from the Thunder and Lightning and Wind Element gradually subsided, and the rotation of the Golden Core returned to normal.
Seeing this, Zhang Dao Xuan’s face showed a trace of surprise. He did not expect that this young man would comprehend Heavenly Tribulation, causing the tribulation thunder to split and absorb a minor tribulation thunder. It was simply unbelievable.
“Master, let’s discuss it later. Let’s watch White Painting’s Crossing Tribulation first.” Lin Yi didn’t need to deal with the minor tribulation thunder. The automatic rotation of the Golden Core would make it merge with the Thunder and Lightning Element inside faster.
Zhang Dao Xuan nodded, his gaze turning to the island bathed in thunderclaps.
By this point, White Painting had thrown out all of his defensive magical weapons and spiritual artifacts and constructed multiple layers of vine shields in front of him using Wood Element Soul Power.
However, under the fifth thunderbolt, these defenses were destroyed with a single blow, including the multilayered vine shield, which could only hold up for a brief moment.
Soon, the final tribulation thunder struck the Spiritual Power Shield, White Painting’s last line of defense.
When the shield was shattered, the lightning struck White Painting’s body, and a scream of pain echoed out.
The white scales on his body flipped over from the impact, revealing the flesh underneath. Especially the top of his head, it sank under the persistent lightning strike, as if he was going to be slashed to the bottom of the earth.
White Painting roared, a light flashed from inside his body, a green inner core burst out from its mouth, emitting dazzling light, heading towards tribulation thunder.
It also twisted its body, following the inner core and met the tribulation thunder. With violent vibrations, Heavenly Tribulation erupted with thousands of beams of light, then vanished into thin air.
The thunderclouds of the Heavenly Tribulation in the sky also disintegrated instantly, returning the Secret Realm to its usual tranquility.
On the small island below, White Painting’s massive body lay there, its fate unknown, and its breathing weak.
Zhang Dao Xuan’s figure flashed, disappearing from the mountaintop. The next moment, he appeared on the small island, gathering all the surrounding Spiritual Energy immediately.
Lin Yi also grasped the Teleportation Mantra, brought the three spirit beasts with him, and teleported to the small island together.
At this moment, White Painting’s body was severely injured, almost no place was unscathed and most of its scales had been peeled off, revealing the charred flesh underneath blasted by lightning, especially the large chunk of flesh missing from the top of its head, it was a terrible sight.
Seeing this, the Green Giant Python was devastated, continuously nudging White Painting with its head, as if intending to wake it up.
The normally lively Golden Ape was silent at this moment, and the White Deer was trembling.
Lin Yi was not sure whether White Painting had successfully Crossed the Tribulation as it was his first experience and the enormous light produced by the collision of those two energies made it impossible for him to see what was happening inside.
Moreover, as the Eye of Emptiness had just observed the Thunder and Lightning Laws while the fifth tribulation thunder was forming, he did not have enough strength left to use the Eye of Emptiness to watch White Painting’s Crossing Tribulation.
Just then, White Painting’s wounds were healing at an extremely fast speed, and its body began to undergo a tremendous transformation. First, the missing flesh at the top of its head regenerated quickly, and two white horns slowly emerged from the two places struck by lightning…
