The Prodigies War
chapter-1809

The lightning tribulation had come and was about to fall.

Lin Xun walked out of Emperor Yu Palace and looked up at the sky. He saw that the tribulation clouds were thick, and there were terrifying lightning of various shapes rolling in them. They emitted a breath of destruction that was shocking.

At this moment, Yu Yunhe and the others could only stay in Emperor Yu Palace. They didn't dare to go out at all. The calamitous aura made their hearts tremble and they couldn't calm down.

Boom!

With a roar that shook the nine heavens, a thunderbolt that was as deep as the sky and earth howled and fell from the sky above.

This was the tribulation of a Saint-King, which was terrifying. From the ancient times to the present, no one knew how many experts had suffered from this calamity and had gotten their soul scattered in the end.

However, generally speaking, the first level of a tribulation was often the weakest.

But in Lin Xun's eyes, the tribulation lightning bolts that fell from the sky were like a thick galaxy. The thunderbolts turned into a waterfall that was pouring down from the nine heavens, illuminating the mountains and rivers of the sky!

"Heavens!"

Yu Yunhe and others were dumbfounded.

This was just the beginning, yet the power of the tribulation was so terrifying, so didn’t that mean it would only become more and more horrifying as time went on?

They had also witnessed other people’s Saint-King’s tribulations. In fact, when some big figures in the Yu Clan underwent their tribulation, they, the younger generation, would watch it happen.

But they had never seen a tribulation as terrifying as the one in front of them!

Undoubtedly, the Saint-King tribulation induced by Lin Xun was very unusual.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time..."

Lin Xun was calm as he rose up without any cover and fought the lightning with his bare hands.

A heavenly tribulation was both a time of crisis and an opportunity. Tribulations were conceived by heaven, representing the will of the great way of the heavens, and were regarded as a punishment from the heavens.

This can be seen from the term "tribulation (劫).” This term was composed of the two words "go (去)" and "force (力)", so the meaning was self-evident. That is, it was to remove a person’s cultivation.

If a cultivator lost their cultivation, they will naturally die.

Hence why it was a tribulation!

The force of the heavenly tribulation was often carried out by lightning bolts, which were also very particular.

Lightning was the source of destruction and the beginning of vitality. It was the thunder that accompanied destruction with a glimmer of vitality.

In spring, when lightning moved, vitality flourished and all things revived. What was interpreted as the way of "life" was contained in lightning.

Heavenly tribulations were also like this.

If one couldn’t survive, they would be destroyed with their soul scattered.

On the other hand, if one survived, a glimmer of life could be seized, and one could break through and produce earth-shaking changes like nirvana.

Bang, bang, bang!

The silver thunderbolts of the tribulation were as terrifying as a galaxy falling, and they hit Lin Xun, splashing a series of dazzling sparks on him and roaring dully.

He interpreted his own dao and dharma, turned into a great abyss, and actually swallowed and absorbed all the lightning that bombarded him. They melted into him and were used to temper his skin, tendons, bones, blood, and qi.

Lin Xun's figure was bright, like a crystal clear gem, with twisted arcs of lightning flashing on his skin.

That destructive power was incredibly terrifying, but it couldn’t hurt him at all!

Soon, the first level of the lightning tribulation was completely offset.

Yu Yunhe and the others took a breath of cold air, and their jaws almost dropped to the ground. How is this possible?

But before they could react, the second level of the tribulation had already poured down.

Boom! Boom!

This time, it was a purple lightning tribulation. It had condensed into the flowers of the Great Dao that were densely packed, blazing, and gorgeous as they floated down from the sky.

Every thunderbolt flower was branded with the will and laws of destruction. They were incredibly beautiful and terrifying!

Not to mention Yu Yunhe and the others, even the cultivators who were watching in different areas of the Great Yu Secret Realm were in a trance and felt incredulous.

Because they had never seen, let alone heard of such mysterious thunderbolts!

Lin Xun stood in the air, took a deep breath, and deduced his own dao. He transformed into something that resembled a great abyss that spanned the void, deep and immeasurable. He ran at full power, as if to swallow the sky and the earth.

As soon as the purple thunderbolt flowers fell, they bloomed densely in the abyss, and the stamens spewed out wisps of other terrifying purple thunderbolts. The destructive power contained in them made Yu Yunhe’s and the others' scalps turn numb, and their souls almost came out just from looking at them from afar.

That was the will of heaven condensed to the extreme, and the ultimate means of a heavenly punishment!

In an instant, hundreds of stamens in the abyss bloomed, and purple thunderbolts flowed, causing the entire abyss to tremble and echo violently.

But in the end, Lin Xun resisted it!

His breathing was like thunder and lightning, and his aura was like a boiling furnace, maintaining the stability of the entire abyss.

These were thunder tribulation flowers that would make any Saint King despair, but after blooming to the fullest, they withered and disappeared in the abyss.

The trace of vitality released by them was also absorbed by Lin Xun. They melted into him, strengthening his body and soul!

"Brother Lin...is too fierce..."

Yu Yunhe and the others were sweating profusely, and their souls were just beginning to recover.

A Saint-King Tribulation was extremely terrifying. Even the top dazzling figures in the world were all very careful when they were going through the tribulation. Many of them used magical formations to protect themselves or borrowed secret treasures from their sect to help them resolve it.

Even so, only a small number of them could survive this tribulation.

However, Lin Xun was completely different.

His Saint-King Tribulation was incredibly powerful, unprecedented, and unheard of. This was enough to make anyone despair, but he was fine, overcoming the tribulation as if he was simply eating and drinking a meal!

"Even if an old monster was reincarnated and began cultivating again, they would not be so powerful..." Yu Yunhe and the others sighed.

Boom!

The tribulation did not stop and instead became more and more intense. In the three thousand miles of sky, the tribulation clouds were as dark as ink, and the tribulation bolts were like dragons as they rolled, roared, and glowed with different lights.

In the end, there was a green tribulation thunderbolt that turned into a phantom of a god, pointing to a lightning spear as it broke through the air!

At that moment, countless cultivators in the Great Yu Secret Realm were shocked and trembling with fear. Did the tribulation lightning evolve into the image of a god?

There were also rumors on the Ancient Nebula Road that in ancient times, there was a peerless genius who overcame a tribulation, provoked the jealousy of the heavens, and triggered the tribulation lightning of the gods to descend. Anyone who touched it would die.

And now, this illusory legend had come true!

"Who is going through the tribulation?"

"Could it be Lin Daoyuan?"

"It must be him! Earlier, he had suppressed the top talents of the Nine Major Worlds by himself, so he is extremely powerful. Isn't he the same as the legendary ancient peerless genius?"

Countless astounded and shocked voices sounded one after another as they guessed at the identity of the person going through the tribulation.

Unfortunately, they were too far from the scene, and the forbidden arrays of the Nine Cauldron Mountains were blocking them, so they couldn't see the appearance of the person going through the tribulation at all.

At this time, Lin Xun was fighting fiercely with the green thunderbolt tribulation phantom.

Boom!

The thunder roared, and the sound of the dao shook the sky.

The thunderbolt tribulation figure, who was like a god, held a thunderbolt spear in its hand as it soared through the sky, drawing the power of destruction of the heavens, like the incarnation of the will of heaven.

Lin Xun, unarmed, fought with it. He was like a great abyss swallowing the sky, and his dao was like a furnace that suppressed the world, looking down on the powerful.

For a moment, there was chaos under the sky, and the turmoil seemed to be the end of the world.

Puff!

Not long after, Lin Xun was pierced through the shoulder by a spear, and blood splattered. He ignored it and stretched out his arm to twist it violently.

The abyss roared, and with one grab, it tore off the arm of the god's phantom, and the thunderbolt splashed like a waterfall.

This arm also turned into pure and surging lightning, which was swallowed by Lin Xun and tempered inside and outside of him.

"Again!"

Lin Xun's cold eyes flashed like lightning, and his fighting spirit was blazing.

The god's phantom flashed, and the broken arm was reborn, making a thunderous sound as it attacked again. It was as if it was enraged, and it became more and more terrifying.

Even though Lin Xun fought hard, in the end, his body became riddled with blood, cracks, and torn flesh.

Muscles exploded, revealing crystal-clear bones that looked like divine gold.

Seeing his serious injuries, Yu Yunhe and others were sweating coldly, and their hearts were hanging in their throats. According to legend, the peerless genius who had caused the phantom of the god's thunder tribulation to descend was dead!

Can Lin Xun survive?

As soon as this thought came to their minds, they saw Lin Xun whistling like a dragon in the sky, as the abyss behind him covered him. With a bang, the phantom of the god was completely swallowed up!

"This..."

Yu Yunhe and others were shocked and speechless.

The third thunderbolt tribulation had disappeared at this point.

After swallowing up the entire phantom of the god that was transformed by the thunderbolt tribulation, Lin Xun’s aura was undergoing earth-shaking changes even though he was seriously injured.

The surging vitality of the tribulation was undoubtedly the most precise and wonderful power in the world. After being gradually refined by Lin Xun, it turned into a power to break through!

"Did they make it?"

In the Great Yu Secret Realm, all the other cultivators were in a trance as their hearts and gallbladders trembled.

The first of the three heavenly tribulations acted like a galaxy falling from the sky, magnificent and boundless.

The second had condensed into the flowers of the Great Dao, blooming to the fullest with incredible destructive power.

The third had turned into the phantom of the god, which was the most terrifying. It was rumored that a peerless genius in the ancient times had suffered from this tribulation.

Now, the three thunder tribulations had ended, but these cultivators didn’t know whether the person who survived the tribulation was dead or alive.

But soon, there was a cry of surprise——

"No, why is there more?"

"The heavenly tribulation is not over yet!"

Above the sky, the storm clouds not only did not dissipate, but they also became more condensed. The colorful lightning was dazzling and unmatched, as if they were brewing the strongest killing weapon.

Witnessing such a scene, everyone was stunned and in disbelief.

From the ancient times to the present, no matter who had passed the Saint-King Tribulation, it all ended after three lightning tribulations, but now, an accident had appeared.

Even if the Saint-King tribulation only consisted of three parts, they were all extremely powerful and far beyond ordinary comparison.

However, no one had ever heard of something else happening after someone had actually passed the three levels of a Saint-King tribulation!

"Unprecedented, unheard of..."

Many people took a breath.

Such a shocking change could only prove that the person who passed the tribulation was far too heaven defying, and that the power they controlled and the path that they sought may have touched a taboo area!

At this time, without giving Lin Xun time to completely repair himself, the fourth tribulation descended.

Boom!

The monstrous red thunderbolt tribulation turned into a copper furnace, breaking through the sky and falling down. The copper furnace was as big as a sacred mountain, steaming with endless red lightning tribulation divine fire, and the light it released dyed the world into a blood-red color.

Everyone who saw this scene was dumbfounded.

A heavenly tribulation had turned into a furnace!

Throughout the ages, who had ever seen this in the world?

In an instant, Lin Xun was suppressed in the red thunderbolt copper furnace, and the rumbling sound was endless, shaking the world.
