Facing the three bolts of crimson lightning that looked like three red serpents gliding through the air, Jiu Shen’s silver hair danced wildly and his clothes fluttered vigorously as he waited for the three serpent-like bolts to strike him down. He could sense that the strength behind these three streaks of bloody lightning had weakened terribly, and with his Seamless Deity Physique, he should be able to survive even if he was struck by it.
Jiu Shen wasn’t doing this out of madness. He just wanted to see whether he could use these bolts of lightning to temper himself. Although his supreme physique was the best he had seen and needed no further enhancement, he wanted to exceed his limits to tap the full potential of his supreme physique. These actions might be crazy in the eyes of others, but to Jiu Shen, he treated it as a form of tempering.
Zapp!! Zapp!! Zapp!!
The three bolts of blood-red lightning struck his body, making Jiu Shen’s senses turn numbed that he almost lost his grip on his Baleful Dragon Sacred Sword. His body convulsed under the intense electric current that flowed within his body like a violently coursing river in the midst of a storm. Despite the numbing sensation he felt, Jiu Shen’s figure remained hovering above the sky like a deity that refused to bend even under the extreme punishment of the God Exterminating Divine Eye.
His embroidered robes was now a mess with cuts and torn pieces, but the imposing aura that he emitted didn’t even diminish. With a grim smile on his handsome face, Jiu Shen lifted his head to look at the God Exterminating Divine Eye with an unyielding expression.
“Hahaha! God Exterminating Divine Eye, your strength truly disappointed this Heavenly God! Come! Show me everything you’ve got!” Jiu Shen suddenly remembered his adventures during his younger years. Didn’t he experience these kinds of dangerous situations before? Even so, he was still able to survive everything and he even managed to increase his strength during those times.
Thinking about that, Jiu Shen’s expression bloomed into a splendid smile. He was no longer worried about the might of the God Exterminating Divine Eye.
The huge eye glaring at Jiu Shen suddenly trembled as if it was furious at the latter’s arrogance. And as a supreme existence feared by everyone in the Primordial God Realm, how could it bear Jiu Shen’s insulting words? After that, it suddenly closed its eyelid as if it was preparing for an even stronger attack.
Jiu Shen could feel an even more dangerous energy fluctuation coming from the God Exterminating Divine Eye, but he remained standing tall and straight like a divine spear!
Numerous streaks of blood-red lightning continuously struck his majestic figure. Each bolt of lightning was capable of turning a 9th-rank Saint realm expert into ashes, but it only made Jiu Shen tremble because of the wild electric currents that circulated within his body. Other than that, he embraced the streaks of bloody lightning that continuously struck his body.
Jiu Shen controlled his true essence and guided the currents of lightning to strengthen his physical body and spiritual power. And to his amazement, it was indeed able to increase his strength by a tiny bit. Although it was only a small increase in power, this still made him pleasantly surprised since he thought that it would be hard to temper his Seamless Deity Physique.
“It seems like I can also temper myself with the help of the tribulation lightning. In that case, give me more!!!” He shouted loudly as his body quivered.
Within Green Wood City, some experts chose to move closer to continue watching the scene. They’ve heard Jiu Shen’s every word as he faced those bolts of blood-red lightning, and they also saw his proud and heroic figure that remained hovering straight and erect amidst the violent lightning that unendingly hit his body.
Seeing this, everyone was visibly moved and they unconsciously clenched their fists as they gaze at Jiu Shen’s silhouette with a look of veneration and worship. Who wouldn’t admire such an iron-willed man?
Xia Xinyue who was among those people that were looking at the scene felt her maiden heart stirring violently without her knowing it. She gazed at Jiu Shen’s figure with unblinking eyes, saving this scene in her memory.
“Lord Sect Master…” Xia Xinyue’s voice was filled with unconcealed admiration and there was also a tinge of tenderness. She felt her eyes becoming cloudy and hazy as she looked at this man with complicated emotions.
“Who is this exalted expert? Is he a 10th-rank God realm cultivator?”
“This man is too strong! He is still alive even after being strike dozens of times by that bloody thing! Just who is he?!”
Because of the great distance between them, everyone couldn’t clearly see Jiu Shen’s face, and they only knew that he was a man because of his voice. However, they could not help but revere him at the bottom of their hearts.
Jiu Shen’s body was now bloodied and had numerous cuts and torn muscles, but even with that being the case, he still tightly held his Baleful Dragon Sacred Sword with both his hands while glaring disdainfully at the God Exterminating Divine Eye that had closed its eyelid a few minutes ago.
At this moment, the eyelid of the God Exterminating Divine Eye suddenly sprung open, producing an archaic and ancient aura that made the onlookers’ legs turn into jelly with its oppressive might. Purple veins can be seen on the bloodshot God Exterminating Divine Eye.
The blood-red bolts of lightning in the sky suddenly turned into deep purplish red as their figures slowly changed into flashes of dragon-like lightning.
Roaarrr!!
Roaaarrr!!
Rooarrr!!
The sky was filled with draconic roars as the dragon-like lightning bolts surrounded Jiu Shen’s lone figure like a pack of hungry wolves staring at their prey.
Facing this scene, Jiu Shen laughed contemptuously, causing his wounds to open up. His whole body was now covered by blood, and only his pair of golden eyes remained untainted by his injuries. “Come! You’ve made me wait for too long! Is this your final attack?! Hahaha! Bring it on!”
The pupil of the God Exterminating Divine Eye flashed with rage as it instantly controlled the dragon-like lightning bolts to attack Jiu Shen.
Roooarr!!
Roooarr!!
Roooarr!!
Sonorous dragon cries echoed in the air as flashes of dragon-shaped lightning assaulted Jiu Shen’s trembling figure which chilled the onlooking crowd’s hearts. They believed that Jiu Shen wouldn’t be able to survive this onslaught even with his might. Everyone felt that it was such a pity for an expert like him to fall in this kind of situation.
“What a pity! No one can survive in this kind of destructive power. Sigh.”
“Even so, I will never forget this unyielding man. Alas, even such a strong figure couldn’t escape death…”
Baaaannnggg!!!
An earth-shaking explosion rang out and enumerable debris of huge rocks burst into the air after the flashes of dragon-shaped lightning struck Jiu Shen mercilessly.
Everyone inside Green Wood City covered their ears with panicked looks to prevent their eardrums from breaking.
The earth trembled for several minutes before everything settled down, but the shock in everyone’s heart didn’t recede.
Is he still alive? No one knows…
