“Say, who is that kid? Not only did he fend off cultivators from two top clans, but he also won the great blessings of Five Elements Holy Island!”
The cultivators started to speculate about Lin Xun’s identity.
“Does it matter? I only want to know what kind of good blessing the kid won from Five Elements Holy Island.”
“I heard that it is an ancient scripture left by a saint.”
“It is said that Five Elements Holy Island gives birth to saint elixirs and the human boy has taken them all!”
Yu Xiaosheng’s and Lin Lang’s faces grew darker and darker as they listened on. Who the hell leaked the news?
The two only joined forces to snatch all the treasures from Lin Xun without anyone else knowing about it.
They never thought that the news about Lin Xun would have already spread all over the world!
“The Wind Falcon Clan!”
After eavesdropping for a long time, Yu Xiaosheng and Lin Lang were finally certain that the Wind Falcon Clan had leaked the news.
Speaking of which, the Wind Falcon Clan might not be the strongest among the major clans in Spirit Burial Sea in terms of strength. But, in terms of being well-informed, the Wind Falcon Clan was no doubt ranked first!
The clan was born spies as they had mastered unique secret techniques that allowed them to come and leave without a trace.
Yu Xiaosheng and Lin Lang were not surprised to learn that the news had been leaked by the Wind Falcon Clan.
The only thing that gave the two a bit of a headache was that many people had directed their attention onto Lin Xun and planned to snatch the blessings from him.
That would no doubt add a lot of trouble to Yu Xiaosheng and Lin Lang.
“We must move quickly and kill that kid before anyone else!” Lin Lang said through gritted teeth.
“Let’s go!” Yu Xiaosheng drew a deep breath.
He realized that the situation was serious and called for immediate action.
The two were as swift as the wind as they carefully searched for traces of Lin Xun. However, along the way, they found that there was more than one group of cultivators looking for Lin Xun!
It made them more anxious.
The others might not know, but they knew very well what was on Lin Xun!
Before long, beast roars rang in the distant mountains and forests, full of discomfort and unease. The ground quaked as if countless creatures were fleeing.
“Heavens, what is that? Could it be that there is a heaven-defying monster challenging a tribulation? The aura of the tribulation is too frightening...” Exclamations sounded from the nearby mountains and forests from time to time. Many experts noticed an abnormality as soon as they came to the area, and all turned to look in the same direction.
There, a mountain stood alone, thick black clouds scudding above and blotting out the sun. It was strangely silent. A terrifying and oppressive aura spread out as though about to destroy the world.
All beasts felt so uneasy and restless that they wildly fled.
Even the cultivators who had just arrived at the area were staring aghast at the scene. Who is overcoming a tribulation? Why is the aura so oppressive and terrifying?
“It’s the Chaos Cave Lightning Tribulation of the Heaven Ascension Stage, but…the visions are too terrifying. Even the Saints of ancient times have never triggered such a lightning tribulation...” Saint Yu Xiaosheng palpitated when he saw the black tribulation clouds gathering in the sky.
“Is this vision recorded in ancient books?” Saintess Lin Lang’s eyes glinted strangely.
“No.” Yu Xiaosheng shook his head.
Saintess Lin Lang’s expression changed. The Dragon Whale Clan held many ancient books handed down from ancient times. Among these, many were records about the Great Dao tribulations.
However, Yu Xiaosheng admitted that he had never heard of such a lightning tribulation!
“Look, there is a figure standing at the peak of the mountain!”
Yu Xiaosheng’s eyes glinted coldly as he peered at the distant mountain. “It’s the human boy! Is he the one overcoming the tribulation?”
“It must be him. I have fought against him before. I’m certain he is at the Perfect Spirit Sea Stage!” Saintess Lin Lang gritted her teeth, eyes flashing with hatred.
“The Perfect Spirit Sea Stage?” Yu Xiaosheng was shaken when he heard about Lin Xun’s cultivation level, realizing that the problem was serious. Saintess Lin Lang was incredibly strong and could kill a Spirit Sea cultivator as easily as slaughtering a chicken, yet the human boy was able to take a part of the dao scripture from her hands.
”You must also realize that this is a monster-like guy. If we allow him to grow, he will only become an enemy of you and I in the future!” Saintess Lin Lang drew a deep breath, assuming a solemn expression. “Now, can you imagine how terrifying his strength will be if he survives the tribulation?”
“That boy—we must use this opportunity to get rid of him!” Yu Xiaosheng’s voice was thick with murderous intent as he paused between each word. Previously, he only wanted to take away Lin Xun’s blessing, but now, he wanted to eliminate a great enemy on his future cultivation path.
He knew very well that someone like Lin Xun would be capable of suppressing them all if he was allowed to rise!
Boom!
Suddenly, a rumble of thunder shook the world like the deafening roar of the god of thunder, stinging their eardrums.
All the beasts and creatures whimpered and shivered across the mountain area. There was a supreme might that subdued them.
Even the cultivators around the area felt their hearts trembling and their bodies stiffening from the indescribably oppressive aura.
Suddenly, a flash of splendid purple lightning ripped through the black clouds, illuminating the sky and earth.
From afar, it looked like a mighty purple dragon breaking out from the depths of the dense, dark clouds to destroy the world!
Many cultivators paled from the power alone.
That heavenly tribulation…
…it was too unbelievable and terrifying!
“It’s that human boy!”
“It turns out that he is the one who triggered the lightning tribulation!”
“Heavens, he hasn’t ascended to the Heaven Ascension Stage, yet he was able to kill so many Heaven Ascension experts of the Blood Lion Clan and Dragon Whale Clan. He is simply...too abnormal.”
“He really is abnormal. Look at the power of the lightning tribulation. Have you ever seen something like that before?”
In the nearby area, bursts of exclamations rang out. The cultivators from every single clan started to panic when they identified who it was.
Many people’s eyes were swirling with murderous intent, and they were itching to take action. The human boy would be exposed to attacks without someone’s protection during the tribulation.
Even if the tribulation was successful, Lin Xun would be extremely weak afterwards, and it was the best time to launch an attack!
“There are great treasures on the kid. We should take this opportunity to kill him!”
Many cultivators had the same thought. Take advantage of the opportunity to kill Lin Xun and snatch his treasures!
……
On the peak of the mountain.
When the purple lightning descended upon the world, Lin Xun, who had his hands clasped behind his back, finally moved!
Shua!
He didn’t retreat nor evade, but instead soared into the sky like an illusory hornless ice dragon. His body radiated a pure and dazzling brilliance as he charged into the rolling tribulation clouds!
“Is that kid going to force his way through the lightning tribulation?
“Does he want to die?!”
Many cultivators exclaimed in horror.
The rare lightning tribulation sent a chill down many people’s spines even from afar, but Lin Xun didn’t hesitate to face it head-on!
Boom!
The first bolt of lightning struck down, and purple light roamed and intertwined, illuminating the mountains and valleys.
Lin Xun was completely bathed in it, sparkling like crystals. He forcibly withstood the impact without suffering the slightest injury.
His amazing feat stunned many people.
How strong was his physique to be able to survive the lightning tribulation?
Faintly, Lin Xun’s blood and qi could be seen pulsing out of his body like dragons and surging like raging waves!
It was pure physical strength, a release of his physical potential. Once exerted, he could crush experts of the same cultivation level with his physical strength alone.
Boom!
Not long after that, the second heaven tribulation descended, turning into a thunderstorm, a rain of light, but it was all formed from the purest lightning!
The thunderstorms raged and poured down like a waterfall, drowning Lin Xun. The sky and the earth had become an expanse of pure purple like a sea of purple lightning.
“What...What kind of tribulation is that? Why is it so terrifying?“ someone remarked after swallowing saliva with difficulty.
“Is he dead?” Many people’s eyes went wide.
Thud! Boom! Boom!
It was the sound of a beating heart, but it sounded like the vibration of a divine drum, making everyone’s ears buzz.
Then, to everyone’s astonishment, Lin Xun emerged from the sea of thunderstorms. His body grew brighter and sparkled more after being cleansed by the flashes of light and rolling thunder. Even his pores were glowing.
His physique was rapidly being transformed. His skin was becoming more and more smooth and flawless like glass.
“Physical transformation!”
Everyone was shocked to find that Lin Xun’s physique was improving after the second tribulation lightning!
“We must kill him! We absolutely can’t let him successfully pass the tribulation...”
The murderous intent of Yu Xiaosheng and Saintess Lin Lang intensified. The lightning tribulation was terrifying and had never been seen in ancient times, but Lin Xun was coming out unscathed. Not only that, but he also used the lightning tribulation to transform his body and physique. He was an abnormal monster!
If such a person grew up, who in the same generation could suppress him?
Boom!
The thunderstorms in the sky endlessly tempered Lin Xun’s body as though they were being controlled, causing rainbows to circulate around him and illuminating the mountains like a godly being.
In the end, the second lightning tribulation fell silent.
Without a second of hesitation, Lin Xun soared into the air and rushed into the sea of dark tribulation clouds.
His entire body was glowing like glass, and his black hair glistened as it danced in the air. His expression was resolute, calm and detached.
Boom!
Before Lin Xun neared, the third lightning tribulation struck from the depths of the clouds. The sky collapsed, the ground split and the world quaked from the ear-splitting eruption of a purple-gold thunderbolt!
Undoubtedly, the third lightning tribulation was even more terrifying. The instant it struck, Lin Xun plunged from mid-air. When he looked up, he was coughing up blood, hair disheveled and face deathly pale!
