Chapter 670 - 294: Thirty-Six Celestial Spirits Array, An Unexpected Windfall_5
The Earth Immortals of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect didn’t think Lin Xuankong was weak; the techniques and Treasures Lin Xuankong displayed today had far exceeded their previous estimations. None of the Earth Immortals present believed they could do better than him. However, while Lin Xuankong was strong, the Thirty-Six Celestial Spirits World-Suppressing Array was equally terrifying! How could the full-powered attack, built up by thirty-six Celestial Tribulation Creatures forming the Array, be weak?
Even the Five Elements Wanderer of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, who had always flattered Lin Xuankong, at this moment, suppressed the fear rising from deep within his Divine Soul and reluctantly lifted his head, waving furiously at Lin Xuankong. "Tributor Mu, as long as the green hills remain, there will be wood to burn. These thirty-six Celestial Tribulation Creatures are truly terrifying, and the Array they’ve formed has caused even me, a Fifth-Grade Earth Immortal, to lose my Heart Spirit. Their attack, built up over the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, must be equally frightening. Hurry and escape; if you don’t, there really won’t be another chance! With your unparalleled talent, Talent Bloodline capable of attracting such a terrifying Celestial Tribulation, and your Artifact Refining Technique that reigns supreme in the Central Divine Dynasty, how can you not quickly grow again? With such talent and means, what is this failure in Crossing the Tribulation? At worst, wait another ten or eight years, make more adequate preparations, and then cross the Celestial Tribulation effortlessly!"
The First Grand Elder of the Five Elements Immortal Sect never missed an opportunity to flatter, but even in his flattery, he was convinced that Lin Xuankong could not possibly overcome this enhanced, double-layered Celestial Tribulation. It was unavoidable. The Thirty-Six Celestial Spirits World-Suppressing Array formed by these thirty-six Celestial Tribulation Creatures had truly terrified every Cultivator and Earth Immortal present!
Hearing these shouts, Lin Xuankong’s eyes, however, showed a trace of heroism. I still have many trump cards unused. How could I possibly retreat now? If I were to escape and my Realm dropped to the Early Stage of Initial Tier Earth Immortal, then even with my Vigorous in Old Age Life Plate and the sixtyfold enhancement from being Old and Wise, it would take at least several decades to re-cultivate my Cultivation to the Late Stage of First-Grade Earth Immortal! The great crisis of the Profound Yin Demon Sect is at most a year away. How could I afford to waste any time!
At this moment, the sky suddenly brightened. Then, from the central position of the thirty-six Celestial Tribulation Creatures, the terrifying Thunderball—which had been continuously growing larger and was composed of hundreds of Divine Thunder Roots—suddenly plummeted towards Lin Xuankong! This Thunderball, though also five hundred zhang in diameter and appearing no different in size from the previous Soul-Extinction Celestial Thunder Thunderballs, was covered in runes that were tens of thousands of times more complex. These runes were formed from innumerable bolts of lightning, and each individual Rune Thunder pulsed with terrifying power, as if a single one striking the ground could annihilate the entire Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect!
Seeing this, Sect Leader Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, the three Grand Elders Sui He, Qing He, and Cang He, the two Crane Ancestors, and Grand Elder Five Elements Wanderer of the Five Elements Immortal Sect—all of whom could barely lift their heads—turned pale.
"It’s over! This time it’s really over," Sect Leader Li shook his head repeatedly, his pupils shrinking to pinholes. "The terrifying power within this Thunderball... I fear even I, a Fifth-Grade Earth Immortal, would be reduced to pulp, my Golden Core shattered!"
"It’s not just Fifth-Grade Earth Immortals who can’t withstand it," the Five Elements Wanderer also shook his head. "Even if I used the Supreme Treasure Talisman of the Five Elements Immortal Sect to forcibly raise my Realm to Sixth Grade, I still might not withstand such a terrifying Thunderball!"
The Great Crane Ancestor, feathers bristling just as before, urgently and repeatedly shouted at Lin Xuankong, "Run, run, run! Tributor Mu, what are you looking at?" The Great Crane Ancestor was so extremely anxious that he was practically jumping up and down. If he weren’t worried that approaching Lin Xuankong might trigger a backlash from the Celestial Tribulation and summon another thirty-six Celestial Tribulation Creatures, he might have flown over, grabbed Lin Xuankong, and fled...
Little Crane Ancestor hugged his crane head with his wings, a human-like grieving expression on his crane face. "We thought today we witnessed several miracles unseen in the Central Province Divine Dynasty Immortal Realm for hundreds of thousands of years; it was an honor for us old folks! Who could have imagined we’d have to watch the greatest hope of our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect being snuffed out by the Celestial Tribulation! Alas, Tributor Mu, Tributor Mu, what on earth are you thinking? How can a First-Grade Earth Immortal possibly withstand such a horrifying attack with just a Third-Grade Immortal Artifact?"
