Chapter 255 - Collectively Trigger the Lightning Tribulation
At this moment, in the Nine Peaks’ Cultivation Square.
A terrifying suction force appeared on the bodies of the disciples, as if a water source had finally appeared in the dried-up riverbed. Without them having to control it, their bodies could not help but absorb the gathered spiritual energy.
Everyone’s aura was also rising at a speed visible to the naked eye. In an instant, a large amount of spiritual energy was consumed, and the sight in the square became clearer.
Thousands of disciples sat cross-legged in the square. The spiritual energy gathered by the grade nine spirit gathering array was rapidly decreasing, and there was even a faint sign that the supply was in short supply.
At this time, even if Su Xing did not speak, Zhuang Changhe also understood the meaning of opening the spirit gathering array.
Body tempering techniques, in addition to improving a cultivator’s weak physique, would also greatly improve the quality of one’s spiritual energy.
To put it bluntly, the more condensed one’s spiritual power was, the less spiritual power there would be in one’s body when it was condensed and compressed.
At this moment, the disciples of the mysterious Heavenly Sword sect were like a sponge. After being squeezed dry of a large amount of water, they would burst out with the characteristic of absorbing water when they encountered water, and there was only one consequence of absorbing a large amount of spiritual power, and that was..
Boom!
The sky above the Nine Peaks’ Cultivation Square suddenly darkened.
The sky, which was originally filled with starlight, was suddenly filled with rolling thunder. In the next moment, dark clouds covered the sky, and the sea of clouds surged like a tide.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Just as the sky darkened, the sound of explosions came from the cultivation field.
“They are breaking through…”
Even the experienced and knowledgeable Zhuang Changhe could not help but be shocked by the scene before his eyes.
That’s right! Everyone was guiding the spiritual power in their bodies to make a breakthrough, and it was done by thousands of people at the same time.
The shock in the eyes of the eight chiefs became even more intense.
What was going on?
More than three thousand disciples had made a breakthrough at the same time, and there were already a few people who were about to make a breakthrough. This was something that had not happened in the hundreds of years of the Eastern Wastelands!
At this moment, the situation had changed.
The surrounding spiritual energy was boiling, and the wind and thunder were roaring in the sky. Lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled. It was as if an ancient beast was stirring in the clouds, eyeing them like a tiger eyeing its prey.
“Eh? The Heavenly Dao Lightning Tribulation has been triggered!”
Su Xing, who had sensed the abnormal phenomenon at the first moment, suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly, and a puzzled look appeared on his face.
“It’s just a breakthrough. How could it trigger the Heaven and Earth Thunder Tribulation? It doesn’t make sense.”
He wasn’t worried about the impact of the Thunder Tribulation on the disciples, but rather, he was curious about the origin of the heavenly tribulation.
As everyone knew, apart from transcending the tribulation and ascending to the next realm, the rest of the cultivators would not trigger the Thunder Tribulation unless they were freaks. After the first body tempering, although the talents of the disciples had improved a lot, they would definitely not reach the stage where they could trigger the heavenly tribulation.
Under the questioning, Su Xing asked the system.
“System, why would the heavenly tribulation be triggered?”
The system kindly reminded, “Because thousands of people from the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect are transcending the heavenly tribulation at the same time, and the aura they are emitting has attracted the attention of the Heavenly Dao here, that’s why the Heavenly Tribulation is triggered. If there are fewer people who have broken through individually or individually, then the Heavenly Dao would not trigger the heavenly tribulation.”
After receiving the system’s explanation, Su Xing already had some understanding.
All the disciples of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect present had broken through, but none of them were enough to trigger the heavenly tribulation. However, the commotion caused by the collective breakthrough of thousands of people was too great, and even the Heavenly Dao of the Eastern Wastelands had noticed it.
And the so-called heavenly tribulation was just a test that was being sent down.
Since it was a test, then it could not be wasted. It was better to make the best use of everything.
Reaching out to stop Zhuang Changhe, who was about to help, Su Xing explained the situation to the eight chiefs.
At this moment, they could not help but feel worried. Although they had Su Xing’s guarantee, the terrifying heavenly might was not a joke. If they were not careful, the remaining seedlings of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect would all turn into dried weeds.
“Sect Leader, don’t worry. It’s just a mere heavenly tribulation. It’s no big deal.”
“Even if they can’t withstand it later, I can destroy this heavenly tribulation with a single slap. Let’s just wait and see!”
After Su Xing said this calmly, his gaze swept across the disciples of the Blackheaven Sword Sect.
At this moment, although the heavenly tribulation had already begun to condense, the disciples were unusually calm. It was as if they had already sunk into deep meditation. Everyone was motionless and did not feel the impending heavenly tribulation.
After obtaining Su Xing’s assurance, Zhuang Changhe sat back on the armchair. However, his gaze would occasionally look at the tribulation clouds in the sky, and occasionally stop at the disciples in the arena. Clearly, he was still a little worried.
“All of you should come over too. Since elder Su Xing has said that it’s fine, we should believe him!”
Hearing Zhuang Changhe’s words, the eight chief thrones also retracted their gazes.
The shock and joy they felt when they saw the group of disciples beginning to break through had been washed away by the arrival of the heavenly tribulation. As the chiefs of the eight peaks, the disciples below were all their disciples, a few of them were their personal disciples. When they saw this scene, their hearts were filled with anxiety.
However, since Su Xing said that he had a way, they naturally did not doubt it.
In other words, since things had come to this, what could they do.
That was the heavenly tribulation. With their cultivations, if they forcefully participated in it, not only would they not be able to save anyone, they might even have to throw themselves into the heavenly tribulation.
Therefore, no matter what, they could only trust Su Xing!
Trust this legendary figure of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect!
At this moment, Su Xing moved.
He drank a mouthful of wine unhurriedly and walked to the edge of the high platform.
In the sky, lightning surged and black clouds roared, as if they were facing a furious beast.
It was as if the end of the world.
Rumble, a bolt of lightning tore through the sky like a silver dragon, reflecting the scene under the sky.
On the high platform.
Su Xing raised his head to look at the sky. His green robes fluttered in the strong wind, and his expression was calm but indifferent!
The aura on his body was restrained to the extreme as he quietly watched everything in front of him.
As expected, Ye Youji became the first disciple to break through.
It was as if a fuse had been lit. After he broke through, batches of disciples from the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect also broke through one after another!
For a moment, the scene caused a surge of breakthrough.
In the sky.
The lightning tribulation had already condensed to a certain degree, and the terrifying pressure seemed as if it would descend at the next moment.
At the same time, the disciples of the Blackheaven Sword Sect had already broken through.
“Mm, it’s not too late,” Su Xing smiled.
He had already made a plan. If everyone had not broken through before the heavenly tribulation descended, he would have no choice but to stop the lightning tribulation. However, relatively speaking, they would also have less opportunities. However, now that all the disciples had broken through… then, they would have to rely on themselves..
“All disciples, listen up! Form the Tiangang primordial formation and welcome the baptism of the heavenly tribulation together!”
“Next is the baptism of the heavenly tribulation that is extremely important to all of you. If you can survive it, it will be of great benefit to your cultivation. However, if you are not strong enough, remember not to act tough. Immediately exit the formation. I will save him!”
“We will follow elder Su Xing’s instructions!”
After the breakthrough, everyone woke up. When they heard Su Xing’s instructions, they stood in their respective positions and sat down cross-legged to chant the incantation of the formation.
After experiencing the tempering just now, Su Xing had already reached an extremely high position in the hearts of the disciples.
All of the disciples of the mysterious Heavenly Sword sect did not show any fear when facing the terrifying lightning tribulation. Instead, they all revealed an eager expression.
Powerful, too powerful.
After tempering and breaking through, only they knew how much stronger they had become.
If they were compared to a small stream in the past, then they were now like a great river with rolling waves. The two were not on the same level.
If they were to fight with their previous selves, they would be able to kill their former selves in less than three moves.
Using a single sentence to describe their current state was like a completely different person.
Since it was a crucial baptism, they had to persevere even if they had to clench their teeth. They did not want to miss such a good opportunity to become stronger.
The disciples sat cross-legged in their respective positions. They looked at each other and saw the raging flames in each other’s eyes.
Come on!
Let the storm come even more fiercely!
