YM778.TV Chapter 203 - 28 Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulationi
Yan State.
The Northwestern area.
The junction of Jinlan River and Wujin Forest.
Wang Ba looked around, within a radius of more than ten miles, there was no sign of human habitation.
To the southeast were vast desolate hills and ravines.
To the north was Jinlan River where the currents were so fast that no one dared to approach it.
To the southwest lay the Three Danger Lands outside Jiantao Station.
This place was isolated and hidden, and it was a place where normal cultivators would hardly come.
“This is the place!”
Wang Ba took a deep breath and immediately set up an Array Plate nearby. Although it was just a Class I array plate, it was better than nothing. After that, he summoned all six Mountain Moving Apes and Wu Monkey King. Being in a strange place for the first time, the Mountain Moving Apes were scratching their heads, looking around curiously.
Only Wu Monkey King took one glance around and then obediently went to Wang Ba’s side.
Wang Ba gently patted Wu Monkey King, and then commanded the Spirit Beast Collar, calling over all six Mountain Moving Apes.
Then, he stored the Lifespan into Wu 1 first.
Immediately after, Wang Ba pulled away the other Mountain Moving Apes and Wu Monkey King, watching Wu 1 nervously.
His heart was in turmoil.
The time had finally come to test his hypothesis!
To be honest, he had quite a concern about the Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.
Even though the word ‘minor’ was in its name, it was still a type of Thunder Tribulation, which cultivators feared the most in their cultivating journey. Normally, the Thunder Tribulation would only appear when a cultivator was transitioning from the Foundation Establishment realm to the Golden Core Realm.
Usually, this kind of Thunder tribulation would only have nine thunders.
People commonly refer to it as the ‘One-Nine Heavenly Tribulation’.
It was the weakest type of Heavenly Thunder Tribulation that cultivators could encounter.
However, the Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulation generally only had one thunder.
Once the heavenly thunder descended, either you survived or died.
Even though it was less powerful than the weakest Heavenly Thunder Tribulation of cultivators, it struck at a Spirit Beast that hadn’t even reached Class II.
No wonder the Mountain Moving Apes were rare. The chances of survival were really low. Many adult apes died before they could reproduce.
However, the more they faced such situations, the greater their potential became. Their combat power far exceeded that of ordinary spirit beasts of the same rank.
In all honesty, Wang Ba had examined all the books in the Beasts Room, and creatures that experienced Thunder Tribulation at Class I were few and far between.
He quickly let go of his thoughts.
Wang Ba then turned his attention to Wu i.
Wu i looked confused, apparently not understanding what was going on. However, soon after the Lifespan matured, it seemed to realize that something was wrong.
It roared uneasily twice and started to pace back and forth restlessly at a nearby distance.
The other Mountain Moving Apes were also restless as if sensing impending calamity.
Wang Ba noticed that the atmosphere was getting heavier.
Pressure emerged from the bottom of his heart, making him feel suffocated.
At the same time, Wu Monkey King was the first to raise its head and look at the sky.
Feeling the same sensation, Wang Ba also raised his head and looked up. Above Wu 1, a small dark cloud was steadily gathering!
Within the dark cloud, visible flashes of lightning were quickly brewing! “Hiss!”
Feelings of celestial might above its head intensified Wu t’s natural furiosity.
Baring its yellow teeth, it opened its mouth to howl at the sky!
Just at this moment!
Boom!
As though sensing a provocation,
A heavenly thunder, the width of a water snake, emerged abruptly from the cloud, directly striking Wu 1!
This thunderbolt instantly split Wu 1 open, charring its skin. A hint of a meaty aroma even began to disseminate!
However, much to Wang Ba’s relief, Wu 1, although badly injured, not only did not die but even appeared excited as it roared at the dark cloud.
It seemed to be saying, “Try it again if you dare!”
Wang Ba thought it was funny, but soon he turned his attention to the sky with a serious expression.
“That’s not right! Why haven’t the thunderclouds dispersed yet?!”
“Instead… the force inside them has become stronger?”
“Isn’t Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulation supposed to have only one thunder? Could it be that because I helped Wu i with the Lifespan Breakthrough, the Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulation has also changed?” As he was pondering, the thundercloud in the sky started to rumble.
Boom!
The second heavenly thunder fell in an instant, striking Wu 1 once again!
“Hiss!!!”
Wu 1 screamed painfully!
Its skin and hair burst open, flesh and blood tore apart, exposing the stark white bones beneath!
Wang Ba couldn’t help but twitch at the sight.
It was terrifying!
So this was a Thunder Tribulation? The horrific power was completely beyond a cultivation base of his early-stage Foundation Establishment realm!
Even standing at a distance, he could feel the residual aftershock from the thunder striking Wu 1, which left him feeling suffocated.
Fortunately, it was finally over. Despite looking dreadful after surviving two rounds of tribulation, the intense life force emanating from Wu 1 left Wang Ba somewhat astonished.
Clearly, Wu 1 had made it!
However, Wang Ba’s expression changed again shortly after.
“Again?!”
The black clouds in the sky hadn’t dispersed yet!
In the flickering lightning and rolling thunder, another, even stronger, heavenly thunder directly hit Wu i!
The life force that had just risen was instantly shattered!
Even the Spirit Beast Collar around Wu l’s neck was completely destroyed! However, to Wang Ba’s astonishment, even if Wu 1 had been hit by three consecutive heavenly thunders, even if there was hardly any flesh and blood left on its body, Wu i still bore its teeth and howled at the sky!
Such defiance!
That was the primal nature of the Mountain Moving Ape!
But Wang Ba finally managed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Because the dark cloud in the sky had finally dissipated, and the sky was clear once again.
He quickly walked to Wu l’s side.
From Wu l’s body, he felt a very pure vitality awakening again, and the flesh and blood on Wu l’s body were growing quickly.
This is the characteristic that all things have, everything has two sides.
In the thunder that represents absolute destruction, there is actually the most pure life force hidden.
As long as one overcomes tribulation, there will be gains.
For example, freedom…
Wu 1 suddenly opened his eyes, his fierce eyes filled with viciousness and cunning!
He immediately lunged at Wang Ba!
However, Wang Ba remained calm, as if he was not surprised.
On one side, a faster figure rushed out.
The figure was small, but it directly knocked Wu 1, who had just passed the Minor Heavenly Thunder Tribulation and was brimming with vigor, advancing to a Class II beast, to the ground with a single punch!
It was the Wu Monkey King!
There was a rare fierce and solemn look on its face, baring its teeth at Wu 1.
Wu i roared and stood up. The powerful strength in its body made it confident, not caring about the Wu Monkey King at all, and then charged up at once.
However, what met it was a nimble dodge by the Wu Monkey King, and then its leg shook.
The ground instantly shook!
Wu 1 was caught off guard, and his body lost balance. The Wu Monkey King seized the opportunity, directly threw it over the shoulder and heavily smashed it to the ground!
Bang!
The ground shook again!
Dusting clouds lifted into the sky.
Immediately after, the Wu Monkey King pummeled Wu l’s unhealed chest with
a flurry of punches, just like rain drops.
Blood spattered, and several bones even broke!
It was a completely one-sided beatdown!
This finally made Wu 1 react.
It would be killed if the beating continued!
Hurriedly, Wu 1 bowed his head to the Wu Monkey King.
Wang Ba watched the whole process from the side, and was even more satisfied with the Wu Monkey King.
Although Wu 1 had just passed the Thunder Tribulation and was injured and not yet at its peak.
But there was a huge gap between the two in terms of battle consciousness and the use of spells.
He feared that even if Wu i restored itself for a while and reached its peak state,
it would still be no match for the Wu Monkey King.
Indeed, it was the Spirit Beast he had chosen wisely.
He immediately walked up, and added a new Spirit Beast Collar to Wu i.
With the restriction of the Spirit Beast Collar, Wu 1 immediately calmed down again.
Wang Ba was not angry either.
Wu l’s reaction was just too normal.
Although the Spirit Beasts have spirits, they are after all in the category of
beasts and naturally act according to their instincts.
Without the control of the Spirit Beast Collar, and not having much contact with Wang Ba, its master, Wu 1 naturally chose to attack Wang Ba.
Wang Ba then put it into the Spirit Beast Bag.
Afterwards, he continued to infuse Lifespan into the remaining Mountain Moving Apes.
In the sky, dark clouds gathered and there was thunderous rumbling again.
Outside of Canglan City.
Zhao Feng beckoned gently.
A sword-light soundlessly fell into his hand.
Far in the sky, a cultivator exuding an eerie aura stared at Zhao Feng in shock.
It seemed to be shocked at Zhao Feng’s power.
However, he did not have a chance to speak anymore.
The next second, his body instantly split open and fell to the ground like shattering cloth.
On the city wall of Canglan City, Liu Yaodong looked at Zhao Feng killing the invading Demon Cultivator with a shocked expression, his eyes full of admiration and awe.
Even though he had watched Zhao Feng take action many times over the days, even though every time he did not see how Zhao Feng made his move, the battle would have already ended.
But every time he saw this scene, he could not help but be awed by Zhao Feng’s unfathomable cultivation realm and shocking combat ability.
They were simply too powerful!
At least so far, of all the Master Cultivators he had seen, none had escaped from Senior Zhao’s hand!
And what’s more, he only used one sword stroke!
Suppressing the shock in his heart, Liu Yaodong saw Zhao Feng turning around and walking towards him, and hurriedly walked up respectfully:
“Senior, you’ve worked hard, these Demon Cultivators should not dare to come again, I heard that you have scared them all the way to the south.”
Zhao Feng did not care about Liu Yaodong’s flattery, and asked: “What about the affairs of the Linglong Ghost Market?”
Liu Yaodong quickly replied: “I have asked someone to sort out a Market Entering Order, once we’re inside, I will take Senior to Stage II.”
Zhao Feng nodded slightly at this.
Then, he prepared to return to his cultivation room in Canglan City.
However, at this moment, it seemed that he sensed something, and Zhao Feng’s figure suddenly stopped, he then turned his head to look at the horizon, his eyes serious.
Liu Yaodong did not understand and also looked in the direction Zhao Feng was looking, but he could not see anything.
“Senior…”
“Someone is Crossing Tribulation, but… it’s very strange.”
Zhao Feng carefully sensed it, but could not help but frown.
Since parting ways with Wang Ba, he had not walked the path of body snatching but had reconstructed his real body with the Soul Nurturing Bead.
Even though this made the difficulty of advancing to the Golden Core Realm greater due to the need for a large amount of resources to strengthen the Soul Nurturing Bead.
But because of this, Zhao Feng’s sensitivity to changes in the world and nature was extremely sharp.
Just now, he vaguely sensed that not too far from here, it seemed like there was a Heavenly Thunder Tribulation taking place.
However, what made him feel strange was that this Thunder Tribulation seemed incredibly weak, unlike the kind that would occur during the Foundation Establishment to Golden Core breakthrough.
This made him curious.
After all, he had reached the limit of the Foundation Establishment Realm now, and if he wanted to break through to the Golden Core Realm next, he would have to experience the Thunder Tribulation.
If he could feel it from a close distance in advance, it would be quite beneficial for him.
With this in mind,
He did not hesitate, and with one word to Liu Yaodong, he immediately turned into a sword-light and flew towards the distance.
