Ace Of Terrans Chapter 697 Test Of The King (2)

Chapter 697 Test Of The King (2)

Shi Lang tolerated three lightning strikes and was still amidst the tribulation. Yet the people from all sides have begun noticing him. Emperor Hell Fla sighed and said, "This tribulation is harder than most emperors even face. Yet he stands tall on his feet after three lightning bolts. What a genius!"

Tian Long nodded and said, "You are correct, Elder Xi. However, he is not a genius. He is a monster working his way up the ground for as long as I have known him."

The people were surprised, and Tian Long continued, "He belongs to the sa lower world as I do. Soon after my ascension, demons barged into the bridge that connected the two worlds. They prevented any talent from rising and ascending to the Immortal Realm. Gradually, the spiritual energy of my ho world was also exhausted.

Only after eons did this kid run into Spiritual energy and, by chance, found a set of techniques that allowed him to cultivate. Not only did he cultivate alone, but he also enabled his entire species to follow the path of cultivation. They secured a strong foothold in the lower realm. His effort and strength are not because of his talent but his persistent effort.

If he were a normal genius, he would not channel his body with a sword intent to wash out the demonic energy. If he were a normal genius, he would not be able to fight with people in higher realms. He is a spark of change."

At this mont, a lady appeared beside Tian Long. The people were shocked as they did not sense her movent. The sovereign was taken aback, but then he cald down and asked, "What are you doing here, Raksha?"

The lady smiled seductively and replied, "He needs to face the tribulations alone. My presence around him will make it difficult for him."

Tian Long nodded and asked, "What do you think? Will he make it through?"

Raksha raised her brow and said, "I believe he will."

Tian Long asked again, "How do you have so much trust in him?"

The lady chuckled, saying, "Because he has never let down."

Tian Long suddenly had the urge to cough up blood. Beside him, Zither Soul could not help but chuckle. Raksha gazed at her and said, "It has been a long ti, Sister Moon."

Fairy Moon Jade smiled and nodded, "It has been long, indeed. I see that you have grown stronger."

Raksha nodded, and they conversed with each other. Tian Long endured the twitch at the corner of his mouth as he observed Shi Lang preparing to face the fourth bolt of lightning. The terran was tired, and facing those three bolts was no joke. He was even forced to release his sword to fend off the attack.

If there was any good news, then it was the fact that he was not injured after three attacks. Any injury by the lightning bolt ant he lost his fighting capability. He took out a few pills from his space ring and swallowed them without much thought.

He did not use dicine to heal his wounds, but he prepared spirit rejuvenation pills to help him withstand the onslaught of the heavenly tribulation and back-to-back battles. Shi Lang was just one of those people. He did not treat himself as so invincible entity. He knew his limitations and was always prepared for the rainy day.

The terran stood on the ground as he watched the fourth bolt of lightning rushing at him. He said, "Shura body."

His body began to glow with golden light, and as the light struck him, his body was flung away. The terran groaned as he bounced on the ground and left pits behind him. When he finally ca to a stop, he mumbled, "I need to strengthen my physique even more. I can only take one more attack."

As he groaned and grumbled, the Terran stood up, and the fifth lightning bolt fell down the sky. The impact of this bolt was even stronger. However, Shi Lang did not bounce on the ground. He was struck in a pit. The fifth bolt subsided, and the people observed a few feet deep pits on the ground.

Shi Lang made so effort and climbed out of the pit, only to face the wrath of the sixth bolt of lightning. The terran yelled, "Shura Fist!"

He punched at the bolt of lightning while the golden glow on his body faded away. The impact of the strike sent the Terran flying for a few ters. As Shi Lang landed on the ground, he coughed up blood. He was injured. Earlier, he channeled the energy of his fist. The attack managed to reduce more than half of the sixth bolt.

However, Shi Lang still sustained so damage, making him cough up blood. His body was fine, but the impact of the attack had shaken his internal organs. The terran sat on the ground, trying to sense and regulate his condition. He took another bottle of spirit pills and replenished his energy while channeling the spiritual energy through his organs.

...

In the distance, Tian Long said, "The final phase of the tribulation is about to comnce."

The two people beside him nodded, and Raksha asked, "What do you an?"

Fairy Moon Jade replied, "There are three phases of the tribulation. The first one tests your resolve. The second one tests your physique, and the third phase tests your soul and comprehension of dao rules.

Shi Lang easily passed the resolve, but in the second phase, he struggled and had to use his trumps. Now, the third phase will push him to the limits. His immortal soul will be checked, and while he defended his immortal soul, his body will be left defenseless. The heavenly lightning will rampage inside his body, destroying it in parts.

Raksha frowned and asked, "Anything we can do?"

Tian Long shook his head and said, "You cannot. If you tried intervening now, the heavens will co after you, and do you think he can withstand the burden of a golden lightning?"

Raksha shook her head and replied, "He is still too weak. It will not be long, but I guess, this ti, he is in a bind."

Tian Long nodded and said, "The heavenly tribulations are a bind for everyone."

Raksha rolled her eyes at him and said, "You need to speak about yourself and not the others. Are you the nanny of the world?"

Tian Long clenched his fists, and Fairy Moon Jade chuckled softly. Emperor Hell Fla was scared to his core. He did not know who this young lady was and why she was so familiar with the two people. He could not even sense any spiritual fluctuation in her body, which confused him even more.

Shi Lang finished eating his pills and healing his internal organs. The terran wanted to stand up when a streak of red and golden lightning fell on his forehead. His body was covered with sparks, and his skin slowly turned red.

The lightning transford into a snake in his soul sea, which charged at Shi Lang. The terran stood in his soul sea with a sword in his hand. The sword was his dao armant as he fended for himself.

The battle was not quick. On the contrary, Shi Lang did his best to defend against the snake. This beast of lightning was testing his dao comprehension. Shi Lang could not take offensive action against him. Dao was not to wage wars.

While he struggled inside his soul sea, outside, the battle affected his physical body. His skin was flaked in many spots and bleeding—a do of lightning around Shi Lang shot rays of lightning at him.

After fifteen minutes, the lightning was exhausted, and the lightning do vanished. However, the test was not yet over. The eighth strike of lightning befell him in quick succession.

In the soul sea, the terran had no ti to breathe. This ti, the lightning condensed into the form of a five-headed snake. Shi Lang sighed and entered another battle. His immortal soul was injured. He was not invincible, and there was still room for him to improve his understanding of the dao rules, and because of that room, he suffered the damage.

However, the terran was sure there was no perfect dao comprehension, only the most suitable one in this world. The crux of this test was not to showcase the flawlessness of his foundation but to show his belief in the path he had chosen to walk.

His physical body was damaged, his muscles were electrified, and the wounds beca bigger. His clothes were torn and reduced to ashes. Shi Lang fought with the lightning hydra for half an hour before the effects subsided.

Tian Long looked at the sky and said, "I do not know if he could manage this."

Raksha followed his gaze, and they found a lightning dragon swarming among the clouds. She said, "I trust that he will survive this. He will not give up. Do not worry; do not Jinx him, old man Long, or I will beat you purple."
