Chapter 487: 487
Once everyone else was killed, the tribulation clouds began to churn intensely, and countless bolts of lightning gathered .
“What?! That was just a warm up? Now it’s serious?!” Long Chen’s expression involuntarily changed .
Originally, he had thought he had gotten a lucky break and would pass this tribulation easily . But now he realized just how excessively wrong he had been .
Those thunderbolts had just been the prelude before the tempest . This was the real lightning tribulation . Long Chen had an urge to curse over and over again .
That previous intensity had been able to annihilate Xiantian experts . Just how powerful did his lightning tribulation have to be?
What he didn’t realize right now was that soul cultivators’ physical bodies were just too weak . Their own tribulation lightning was the weakest of all tribulations . If their own tribulations were on the same level as other cultivators, then this world wouldn’t have any soul cultivators .
Life was fair . Soul cultivators possessed abnormal Spiritual Strength, but their weak physical bodies were their fatal weak point .
The Heavenly Daos had taken into consideration that soul cultivators’ tribulation lightning couldn't be very strong . But that weak lightning tribulation, which had just been a warm up, had still been something they hadn’t been able to bear .
Long Chen had even been celebrating, thinking he had ended up benefiting because of the pavilion master . The tribulation lightning had been adjusted to his level .
But as soon as he was killed, the tribulation lightning changed, going from a kitten to a fierce tiger .
“Fuck, fine! Come at me! I just knew you would try to make life difficult for me! I’m already used to it . ” Long Chen roared up to the sky .
This was already his third tribulation . Each time, his tribulation was filled with endless destructive will . That was completely different from other people’s tribulations .
For other people, the tribulation was just a trial . But Long Chen’s tribulation only had one goal, and that was using its full strength to kill him .
BOOM!
A thick bolt of lightning descended from the nine heavens . This thick bolt of lightning enveloped Long Chen and dozens of meters around him .
His clothes burst apart, and a berserk energy spread in all directions, with Long Chen at the center .
RUMBLE!
The ground seemed like water, and a huge ripple spread from a terrifying energy .
Where that ripple passed, whether it was mountains of buildings, they were instantly destroyed . That berserk energy truly leveled the Wind Spirit Pavilion .
Any remnants that had survived Long Chen’s combination attack with Little Snow were now instantly destroyed .
As for Long Chen, within that thick bolt of lightning, his skin was splitting apart, blood pouring out . Even with his physical body, he wasn’t able to endure this fierce attack . Just the first attack was enough to injure him .
“Fuck, just keep coming! You goddamn bastard heavens, if you think I’m displeasing, then come smite me!” roared Long Chen crazily .
The pain had stepped on his nerves, causing his fury to soar . There are so many bad people in this world, but you don’t smite them . Instead you come to target me . When did I ever provoke you?!
Although heavenly tribulation didn’t have any emotions, Long Chen could sense its will . It wanted to completely annihilate him, refusing to allow him to exist in this world .
That was a kind of Heavenly Dao, a kind of law . It was a will that could not be defied . It wanted Long Chen dead, so he shouldn’t even think about living in this world . That infuriated Long Chen .
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM…!
As if it had been provoked, the lightning crashed down even harder . The entire world trembled . The might of the heavens could not be opposed .
Long Chen coughed up a mouthful of blood . His injuries had reached the point that it was almost possible to see his bones, but Long Chen still clenched his teeth and laughed crazily .
“Keep coming! You idiot heavens, you blind ass heavens, you-!”
BOOM!
The thunderforce made Long Chen cough up even more blood . However, he wasn’t afraid . He was focused entirely on using his own thunderforce to devour the thunderforce invading his body .
Long Chen possessed his own thunderforce, thunderforce that had also come from tribulation lightning . However, there was a qualitative difference between it and the current thunderforce attack him . The power difference was immense .
He needed to devour this attacking thunderforce bit by bit, gradually increasing the strength of his own thunderforce .
It was like a tiger cub trying to devour an elephant ten times its size . It was extremely difficult .
But he was gratified to find his original thunderforce was extremely voracious . No matter how much he fed it, it still didn’t get full . Furthermore, as he fed it, it continuously grew larger .
Within Long Chen’s blood, countless violet runes were beginning to grow . Those were his core thunderforce runes, and as he devoured more and more thunderforce, they also continuously grew stronger .
Now, Long Chen didn’t need to deliberately feed them . They would just automatically devour the thunderforce that invaded his body .
He was covered in blood, but he didn’t stop cursing . In fact, he began to curse even louder . Since he wasn’t able to reach and hit the heavens, the best thing was to get some satisfaction from his mouth .
However, he was actually cheering inside . His thunderforce was growing stronger and stronger, something he urgently wished for .
Thunderforce was very rare, and was capable of blocking Spiritual Strength . It was his greatest trump card when he ran into soul cultivators .
After all, soul items were outer forces, and it was much more reliable to use his own strength . So thunderforce was something he urgently needed .
Unfortunately, he was always too busy and had no time to use his spiritual qi to nourish his thunderforce . So this lightning tribulation was also an opportunity for him .
Although he rarely used thunderforce, that was only because he didn’t have any high class Battle Skills that could control thunderforce . As for the Lightning Finger he had come up with, it was only useful against some experts .
But against supreme experts, it was useless . The time it took to activate was too long, and true experts would see through that opening in a glance .
So although he didn’t use his thunderforce often, it didn’t mean that thunderforce was useless . It was simply that he didn’t have any good ways of using it .
However, Long Chen still wanted to raise it . After all, there were still many chances for him to obtain higher class Battle Skills in the future, but chances to increase his thunderforce were rare .
In order to not waste this chance, he could only bitterly endure this pain, not using his spiritual qi to block .
Another benefit of doing this was that it would temper his physical body . However, this method was extremely crazy and cruel .
It was a good thing for him that he had been able to continuously use his old thunderforce to temper his body .
Because his thunderforce runes existed in his blood, even if he didn’t deliberately activate them, they would help strengthen his body gradually, expelling impurities from his body . Otherwise, he wouldn’t possess such a strong physical body now .
Unfortunately, Long Chen hadn’t had any time to deliberately temper his body, and so there were still many impurities in his body . Those impurities couldn’t be expelled by his passive thunderforce tempering . They would have required Long Chen to circulate his thunderforce to its full strength to be expelled .
Although Long Chen appeared in a terrible plight right now, he was actually borrowing this berserk thunderforce to expel the impurities in his body .
This tribulation lightning was of great help to him . However, that didn’t mean the lightning tribulation had good intentions towards him . These results were because of Long Chen’s own hard work .
If he hadn’t found a way to nourish thunderforce in his own body, then he probably would have long since died to tribulation lightning .
BOOM!
Long Chen once more coughed up a mouthful of blood . The bones in his shoulder were now visible .
Furthermore, the tribulation clouds in the sky suddenly shrunk into a ball . The tribulation clouds of ten thousand miles shrunk to less than a hundred miles .
Once the tribulation clouds gathered together, the world immediately became quiet . Heaven and earth were deathly silent . It was as if time had frozen .
Long Chen suddenly felt all his hair stand on end . An intense sensation of death enveloped him .
“I just knew it wouldn’t be this easy . ” Long Chen viciously spat on the ground . His two stars circulated, and from his primal chaos space, a pure life energy poured into his body .
His horrifying wounds healed in just a breath’s time . However, the price was that the forest of trees in his primal chaos space withered .
Long Chen had already planted a forest in his primal chaos space, which he used as storage for life energy . They were what he relied on to heal himself .
But he hadn’t expected that in order to completely recover, the entire forest would die . All their life energy had been used up .
What he didn’t know was just what terrifying realm his physical body had reached . Even a small cut on his body required a huge amount of life energy to heal .
As for just now, his entire body had been covered in wounds . He had been fortunate he had planted enough trees, or he wouldn’t have even been able to fully recover .
This was not within his expectations . Other than the medicinal field, he had filled the entire primal chaos space with trees . He had thought that with that many trees, he would be able to instantly recover several times . But now, he had run out after just one healing .
But he also couldn’t care about that too much at this time . He looked up at the lightning clouds in the sky . A terrifying pressure was locking onto him .
RUMBLE!!!
The tribulation clouds were constantly trembling, as flickering lightning lit up the world .
Suddenly, two huge lightning pythons shot out of the clouds . Those lightning pythons seemed to be living creatures . They were three thousand meters long, and a terrifying pressure came from their bodies .
They let out fierce roars as they charged at Long Chen .
“Fuck, what kind of monsters are these?!”
Long Chen’s heart trembled . He sensed immense pressure from these lightning pythons . The lightning had somehow transformed .
A huge lightning blade appeared in his hand as he closely stared at the two lightning pythons .
