Chapter 244: Undergoing Tribulation Again!
【After returning to the Hope Zone, you spent a week adjusting your condition to its peak.】
【One week later!】
【Xuanyuan Tianji and Chen Shu stood together in the distance, their gazes grave as they looked at you.】
【Chen Shu, who did not know the reason behind it, could not understand why everyone was so tense when you were merely undergoing a tribulation.】
【Beneath the Tribulation Clouds, there was no expression on your face as your white hair fluttered.】
【Very soon, the Lightning Tribulation for breaking through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm descended.】
【Facing these bolts of tribulation lightning, your expression did not change at all, and you dealt with them easily.】
【One bolt, two bolts, nine bolts!】
【The Heavenly Venerable Lightning Tribulation ended, and you successfully broke through to the Nine Tribulations Heavenly Venerable Realm.】
【The instant you broke through, half of your hair turned black again.】
【A vast amount of vitality filled your body, making you appear even more spirited and vigorous.】
【Next, you knew that what you were about to face was the most terrifying Chaos Divine Lightning.】
【Although this was not your first time facing it, a trace of tension still remained in your heart.】
【BOOM—】
【As the first bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning descended, you officially began undergoing the Ninefold Chaos Lightning Tribulation.】
【Three days later!】
【Covered in blood, you looked at the Tribulation Clouds above your head, and the corners of your mouth could not help rising.】
【This time, you had not expected that after making full preparations, you would forcibly withstand six bolts of Chaos Divine Lightning.】
【It was only after the seventh bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning descended that your Fleshly Body dissipated within the Lightning Tribulation.】
【However, because your Soul Power was powerful enough, it did not dissipate within the Lightning Tribulation.】
【You consumed one strand of Undying Soulflame, and your Fleshly Body, which had only just dissipated, began reconstructing itself at a speed visible to the naked eye.】
【In an instant, you appeared before Chen Shu and Xuanyuan Tianji’s eyes, perfectly intact.】
【“This...”】
【Chen Shu widened her eyes and looked at the scene before her in disbelief.】
【In that instant just now, she had clearly sensed that your aura had completely disappeared. Yet in the next second, you had reappeared before her eyes in perfect condition.】
【“This is the Divine Power he cultivated.”】
【Xuanyuan Tianji spoke from the side and explained in a calm tone.】
【After a long while, the eighth bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning descended.】
【As expected, you were once again swallowed by the Chaos Divine Lightning. After holding on for a period of time, your Fleshly Body dissipated again, leaving only your primordial spirit to endure the Chaos Divine Lightning alone.】
【In the end, you consumed Undying Soulflame once more to reconstruct your Fleshly Body, and just like that, you endured until the final bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning.】
【Now, you still had not used the Xuanhuang Shield, and there was still one strand of Undying Soulflame left in your Soul Sea. In your view, this Tribulation could already be considered a success. No matter what, you would be able to easily survive the next bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning.】
【BOOM—】
【After a tremendous rumble, you instinctively raised your hand to prepare to block the Chaos Divine Lightning. However, you discovered that the Chaos Divine Lightning had not descended.】
【You frowned and looked toward the Tribulation Clouds above your head.】
【With just one glance, your pupils suddenly contracted.】
【You did not know when it had started, but the Tribulation Clouds above your head had almost covered the entire Hope Zone, and their intensity was still growing fiercer.】
【The Tribulation Clouds shrouded the sky, and darkness descended.】
【Not long afterward, you heard a sound similar to shattering glass.】
【At the same time, you, Xuanyuan Tianji, and Chen Shu abruptly looked upward.】
【You discovered that the outer barrier of the Ancient Emperor Ruins had already been shattered by the Tribulation Clouds, revealing the appearance of Qingxuan Realm.】
【Seeing this, you inwardly cried out that things were bad.】
【You knew what the shattering of the barrier meant.】
【In the distant Heavenly Emperor City, that Immortal Lord-level eldritch being would sense all of this and rush over.】
【Suddenly, you turned sharply toward Xuanyuan Tianji and shouted at the two of them.】
【“Leave quickly! The Eldritch Race is coming!”】
【You told Xuanyuan Tianji and Chen Shu that the commotion caused by your Tribulation here was too great, and it would definitely be noticed by the Eldritch Race.】
【“Then what about you?”】
【Xuanyuan Tianji frowned and asked you in return.】
【You raised your brows slightly and told her that you had your own method of leaving. During the Tribulation, no one else could attack you.】
【Hearing this, Xuanyuan Tianji immediately took Chen Shu and left the Ancient Emperor Ruins without another word.】
【Xuanyuan Tianji’s current cultivation had already completely caught up to Chen Shu’s.】
【You watched the two of them leave. In the end, you said one final sentence to Xuanyuan Tianji, asking her to take Chen Shu to the former site of the Bai Family in Heavenly Emperor City and wait for you there.】
【After the two of them had gone far away, you looked at the Tribulation Clouds above your head with a mocking expression.】
【“You cannot stop me!!!”】
【It was as though a consciousness within the Tribulation Clouds heard your words, and a terrifying aura surged toward you head-on.】
【However, you discovered that the final bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning still did not descend for a long time.】
【Just like that, you watched the Tribulation Clouds above your head gather power for three entire days.】
【At this moment, the Tribulation Clouds had already covered everything within a thousand-li radius of the Ancient Emperor Ruins. Even from the distant Heavenly Emperor City, one could sense a hint of it.】
【During these three days, the Immortal Lord-level Sinister Man of the Eldritch Race had long since arrived.】
【“Tsk, tsk, tsk...”】
【“With such a terrifying aura, even someone in the Immortal Realm would not be able to withstand it. I truly cannot understand what is so different about you, little wretch, that even heaven and earth cannot tolerate your existence.”】
【“Sigh~ What a pity. Such delicious Blood Prey will be wasted just like this.”】
【Not far away, the Immortal Lord-level Sinister Man kept muttering to himself, his face filled with regret.】
【Standing at the center of the storm, you completely ignored the words of the eldritch Immortal Lord. Right now, you had only one goal: to survive this final bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning.】
【Over these three days, for some reason, an ominous premonition had risen in your heart.】
【You felt that relying on the Xuanhuang Shield might not be enough to survive this Lightning Tribulation. You might even need to consume your final strand of Undying Soulflame to have a chance.】
【“It is here!”】
【In the next second, Chaos Divine Lightning surged toward you like a torrential downpour.】
【This terrifying aura left you with no courage to face it head-on. You directly brought out the Xuanhuang Shield to resist it.】
【“Oh? It is actually the Xuanhuang Shield!”】
【The Sinister Man looked at the Xuanhuang Shield in your hand, and a trace of anticipation flashed through his eyes.】
【The Xuanhuang Shield transformed into a protective barrier that completely guarded you, while the terrifying aura of the Chaos Divine Lightning surrounded you tightly.】
【CRACK—】
【CRACKLE—】
【Not long afterward, you saw a crack appear on the Xuanhuang Shield before you.】
【A moment later, more and more cracks appeared across the Xuanhuang Shield. Seeing this, your heart leapt into your throat.】
【You knew that your previous guess had not been wrong. This Xuanhuang Shield could not fully withstand the ninth bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning.】
【For some reason, you did not know why, but it was as though the Heavenly Dao refused to allow the existence of the Immortal-Demon Body, as if it were some taboo between heaven and earth, and it was frantically trying to obstruct you.】
【CRACKLE—】
【In an instant, the Xuanhuang Shield was covered densely in cracks, as though it might shatter at any moment.】
【Suddenly, you thought of something and took out a fragment.】
