Chapter 093: A Sea of Lightning Descends
Heaven-Shaker · 第093章 雷海降世
This was a sea of lightning, a hundred zhang in size, with endless majesty climbing ever higher. Ten thousand arcs of light danced like a writhing mass of serpents, each bolt of lightning terrifyingly fierce.
"It's actually solidified into a sea of lightning!" Countless people were greatly alarmed. This was meant to kill Yang Tian; even a martial artist at the peak would be struck dead.
"Does heaven forbid the existence of techniques that refine lightning tribulation?" many murmured. The power of the lightning tribulation was too great.
"Haha, this is divine punishment... divine punishment!" Li Hongtao laughed, his heart filled with delight.
"Brother Yang will definitely be fine." Yun'er prayed silently. Qing Yuan and the others remained silent; during tribulation, no one could disturb, as it might increase the tribulation's power.
"Is it coming?" Yang Tian slowly stood up, his entire body turning silver-white, lightning flickering around him. His aura was terrifyingly strong, his vitality incredibly formidable.
"So strong!" After a few moments of silence, Yang Tian's expression gradually turned grave. The energy contained in the sea of lightning was too vast, especially the purple lightning tribulation at its center, which made his scalp tingle.
"Let me see how formidable the ninth heavenly lightning is!" Yang Tian closed his eyes. The dormant blood energy within him suddenly burst forth, a river of blood floating above his head, and the visions around him grew increasingly astonishing.
If Yang Tian's blood energy had previously been like a spark, now it was like a flame on a candle. His entire being was terrifyingly powerful, crimson blood energy constantly spilling into the void, each wisp twisting the vacuum as it passed.
"Such formidable strength!" Many showed surprise, feeling some hope that Yang Tian could survive this great calamity.
Boom! The long-brewing sea of lightning finally erupted. Fierce waves of air howled forth, shattering countless vacuums, like thousands of troops and horses galloping. Ten thousand lightning arcs cascaded down from the clouds, their might terrifying.
"Kill!" Yang Tian shouted, his stored essence, energy, and spirit reaching their peak. His loose black hair danced wildly, his eyes flashed like lightning, and an invisible domineering aura climbed skyward.
Boom! The entire river of blood solidified into a great sun, its scorching temperature rising. The energy within the sun was violent, nearly burning the vacuum away.
"What martial technique is this?" Countless were astonished. They sensed Yang Tian's internal energy rapidly depleting—this was a powerful martial technique!
Chi! The great sun rotated through the void, fiery waves shooting out, charging directly into the sea of lightning. A shocking collision erupted, blinding rays interweaving, exceptionally dazzling under the dark night.
"Explode!" Yang Tian roared, his hand suddenly clenching. The entire great sun burst violently, countless flames soaring into the sky, blasting a void zone within the sea of lightning.
"So strong!" Many stood up. Now that the sea of lightning was shattered by nearly half, Yang Tian's prestige in their hearts grew ever more unattainable—he might become an invincible hero in the future!
"No, the sea of lightning is recovering... recovering!" Someone noticed the detail, their heart trembling. The sea of lightning was repairing itself; the void zone blasted open was actually surging with lightning—an unbelievable sign.
"Impossible! The lightning tribulation can absorb energy?" Qing Yuan was furious, roaring at the sky. Such a thing had never been heard of; this was meant to kill Yang Tian.
"Haha, this is divine punishment! How can divine punishment be resisted by humans? Yang Tian must die!" Li Hongtao laughed, wishing Yang Tian would die right then.
"Shut your damn mouth!" Qing Yuan turned back and cursed, his fierce expression silencing Li Hongtao, who dared not retort.
Xing Hao and the other two remained silent, silently praying for Yang Tian.
"What's going on?" Frantically swallowing a handful of pills, Yang Tian did not hesitate to summon the Golden Crow Divine Furnace. The one-inch furnace body suddenly expanded to thirty zhang.
Blazing flames burned, divine patterns rotated on it, endless firelight filled the vacuum. The furnace treaded the void, emitting a matching might.
"That's the Sun Divine Furnace!" Someone was greatly shocked, having seen the Sun Divine Furnace in ancient texts.
"No, it's an imitation of the Sun Divine Furnace, a Dao artifact!" Another retorted. The Sun Divine Furnace was a divine object; Yang Tian could not activate even a trace of its power.
"Yang Tian actually obtained a Dao artifact from the treasure vault!" Those who had seen Yang Tian's battle spoke up; Yang Tian had not possessed a Dao artifact before.
"How is that little beast so lucky?" Li Hong's face darkened. He sat down on the ground and fell silent.
"Go!" Yang Tian lightly commanded. The Golden Crow Divine Furnace shook violently, like a mountain, attacking into the sea of lightning.
Rumble! The blazing flames within cascaded down like layers of fire descending upon the void, colliding with the sea of lightning. Harsh sonic booms resounded across the sky!
Each layer of fire had formed over countless years, evolving from the lowest flames to now, incredibly powerful. Countless flames charged out from within, reducing the might of the sea of lightning.
"It's recovering again!" After a while, someone cried out in alarm. The sea of lightning was absorbing the surrounding ancient energy, as if it had gained intelligence.
"Does heaven forbid the appearance of heaven-defying techniques?" many whispered.
"Damn it!" Yang Tian's face darkened. His blood energy was nearly depleted, but the lightning tribulation's power was recovering. He directly recalled the Golden Crow Divine Furnace.
"Must I use my physical body to resist?" Sitting cross-legged, Yang Tian touched his arm. The might contained in the sea of lightning was too formidable; he was not confident of withstanding it.
He frantically swallowed ancient pills. The energy in the sea of lightning was nearly fully restored; he had little time left and needed to recover to his peak state.
Many regretted it. Yang Tian's talent was too astonishing; he could have become an emperor-level expert in the future. If he died under the lightning tribulation, it would truly be heaven's envy of talent.
The sea of lightning surged violently, exceptionally dazzling under the pitch-black sky. The energy generated within pressed down continuously.
Rumble! The sea of lightning moved, tearing through the sky, diving down from the void like a thunderstorm. Ten thousand lightning arcs fell, striking toward Yang Tian's entire body.
Bang bang! Yang Tian suddenly opened his eyes. A silver-white light burst from his skin, shooting into the sky. He charged directly into the sea of lightning, tearing it apart with his bare hands, crimson blood energy spilling into the void.
"Too ferocious! Yang Tian tore open the sea of lightning!" Someone showed shock. Such a physical body was too powerful, able to rival the divine bodies of sacred lands.
Bang bang! After persisting for a few breaths, Yang Tian's skin began to crack. Lightning arcs crazily attacked his body.
"Ao wu..." Xiao Bai, who had been vigilantly watching from Yang Tian's chest, suddenly leaped out, appearing outside the sea of lightning in an instant. Its fur stood on end, making it look like a little hedgehog.
A white shadow darted out, untouched by lightning, drawing many gazes. Extremely fervent stares locked onto the tiny beast; it had just passed through the sea of lightning without being attacked by the tribulation.
"What kind of beast is this?" Gu Mo's eyes blazed with extreme fervor. The beast had traversed the sea of lightning without any harm.
"It must be a heavenly exotic!" Gu Mo roared repeatedly. The furry little beast had not provoked the lightning tribulation's attack.
"Why wasn't Xiao Bai attacked by the lightning tribulation?" Qing Yuan was greatly shocked. Xiao Bai's origin was too mysterious.
Countless lightning bolts rolled within his body. Yang Tian's bones were breaking, like a Milky Way cascading onto him, instantly drowning his body.
"Ah—" Suddenly, Yang Tian let out a beast-like low roar. Unbearable pain spread across his face; he felt as if his entire body was melting.
"Brother Yang..." In the distance, seeing Yang Tian's pained expression, Yun'er shed tears. Crystal droplets rolled down. She knew Yang Tian's resilience; for him to show such pain, he was enduring unimaginable harm.
Yang Tian's entire body was drenched in blood, bathed in a bloody light. He was enduring unimaginable agony.
A few drops of life-giving water poured onto his body. Yang Tian's vitality had just recovered a bit when it was crushed again by the lightning tribulation. The sea of lightning was actually absorbing the surrounding ancient energy!
