Li Chen was well aware that his body could no longer withstand a complete thunderbolt. If it were the sa as before, even a single bolt would likely shatter his already cracked body into pieces.
By then, no matter how strong he was, death would be the only path left.
His body shattering into pieces was not sothing that couldn’t be restored, but it’s important to rember that Li Chen was not alone here.
He couldn’t guarantee that after his body was shattered by the heavenly tribulation, the Divine Wind Wolf wouldn’t take advantage of his misfortune.
"A single smallest Thunder Fork can make take that final step, so this ti, I must withstand every bit of this heavenly tribulation. If I let any of it through, I’ll be in danger." Li Chen inhaled deeply.
His current state was like walking a tightrope. If the heavenly tribulation was slightly stronger, it would strike him down directly. On the other hand, if there were no heavenly tribulation at all, like using the Heavenly Dao Pearl for defense, he wouldn’t be able to complete the final tamorphosis and would remain stuck at the half-step Heaven Following Realm.
Neither of these outcos was sothing he wanted to see.
"Bring it on!"
At this mont, the azure lightning descended once more, and this ti the heavenly tribulation reached the thickness of an adult’s body, looking terrifying beyond asure.
It was several tis more formidable than the previous lightning.
If he couldn’t resist this lightning, it would equate to a tribulation failure for Li Chen. If that happened, his injuries would be irreparable, and he would likely die here.
He did not want to fail, nor did he want to die.
"Therefore, this ti, I must completely withstand it no matter what!"
"Law of Destruction—Wordless!"
A black-gray blade light soared into the sky. Within this blade light, Li Chen’s Law of Destruction was contained. Feeling the power of the lightning, Li Chen used his powerful willpower to forcibly control the range of the Law of Destruction within this blade strike.
It prevented the tribulation lightning from being completely dispersed while also avoiding being destroyed by it, which would lead to a tribulation failure!
Two completely different destructive forces collided in the sky above the forest.
"Boom!!"
The violent aura whipped up airwaves, causing leaves to dance across the entire sky.
Li Chen’s sharp eyes locked onto a small lightning arc that was disbanded by the Law of Destruction but had not completely disappeared. With a flash, he crossed the space to stand in front of that lightning arc.
"Sizzle——"
Red Moon’s blade touched the lightning arc.
The lightning arc flowed along Red Moon and surged into Li Chen’s body.
"Finally... succeeded."
Li Chen’s eyes slowly closed as an unprecedented feeling of strength surged through his entire being.
In the instant the tamorphosis from the Heavenly Realm was completed, Li Chen’s body began to repair itself at an exaggerated speed.
This repair speed even surpassed the rate of his hyper regeneration cells when he was at a low rank.
From the tribulation until now, Li Chen’s body had long been riddled with holes and cracks.
But once Li Chen’s advancent was complete, those lightning strikes that nearly destroyed his body turned into streams of vitality, nurturing his body anew.
Lightning is a mystical force representing destruction. However, when destruction reaches its peak, it can give birth to new life.
Every tribulation a martial artist undergoes is a rebirth.
Although Li Chen had initially used Spatial Power to catch up with that lightning arc, defying expectations, he found himself suspended mid-air, rather than plumting back down.
"Empty..."
In a mont, countless insights arose in Li Chen’s heart. Many previously incomprehensible problems in the Envy Heaven Realm were instantly resolved, becoming crystal clear.
But in his mind, there were no distractions, reaching a state of ’emptiness’.
No joy, no sorrow.
The heavenly tribulation had not concluded.
Li Chen’s heavenly tribulation was never that simple, but now, Li Chen had crossed the threshold of the Envy Heaven Realm and truly stepped into the Heaven Following Realm.
In just a few short years, from his ascension to now, less than three years had passed, and he had beco a true Heaven Following Realm powerhouse. If this speed were known, it could shock anyone.
Even among ascenders, those who could cultivate in the lower realm to the point of ascension are considered extrely talented, and it’s rare for anyone to achieve such speed.
Over these three years, Li Chen was not only cultivating but also accumulating, waiting for the mont of tamorphosis.
Now, he realized that his tamorphosis had truly begun.
The thunderclouds still rumbled above, seemingly brewing an even more powerful heavenly tribulation to completely obliterate this anomaly.
But when Li Chen looked up again, his eyes turned calm.
His blood-red long hair reverted to black, and his pupils, though retaining a bloody hue, were as tranquil as a serene autumn lake.
"Boom!!"
Watching the lightning strike once more, Li Chen nonchalantly extended a hand.
"Sizzle——"
The lightning landed on Li Chen’s palm, and not a single drop of blood was shed. This lightning, even more terrifying than before, was effortlessly absorbed by Li Chen.
At the sa ti, Li Chen’s Silver Body continuously evolved under the baptism of lightning, evolving towards a higher realm!
Early Silver Body Realm, Middle Stage...
Skin, flesh, tendons, bones...
Initially, Li Chen’s Silver Body had only evolved to the skin level, but this ti, aided by the baptism of lightning, he managed to evolve his Silver Body directly to the level of blood.
"Boom!!!"
Even fiercer lightning fell, as if the tribulation cloud was thoroughly infuriated by Li Chen.
The azure thunder, at this mont, took on a hazy violet hue.
Yet in the face of this lightning, Li Chen didn’t dodge or evade. Instead, he enveloped his arms with True Yuan and, facing the furious lightning, punched back with his fists.
"Boom!"
The lightning was shattered once again.
No blade was used, nor any sophisticated sword technique. With just a pair of fists, the mighty lightning was broken apart by Li Chen.
Within Li Chen’s body, the last few copper-glowing bones were completely baptized, turning into silver light.
"Silver Body Realm’s Silver Bone tempering is complete. Now, only the blood remains."
Clenching his fist, Li Chen, who had completed the silver bone tamorphosis, felt an explosive surge of terrifying power within him.
This power had nothing to do with True Yuan; it was purely the strength of his physical body.
Skin for defense, flesh for strength, tendons for outburst, bones for the overall body.
After completing the silver bone tempering, Li Chen’s physical body had reached a state of supre strength. If he were to evaluate his strength now...
He believed he could easily pin down the likes of that old-faced man from before!
Truly fierce!
The heavenly tribulation clouds lingered in the sky, but as if restricted by so force, they could no longer summon lightning.
After a brief pause, they finally, though unwillingly, dissipated.
Li Chen gradually returned to the ground and only then looked to the side.
There lay the severely injured Divine Wind Wolf King.
Noticing Li Chen’s gaze, the Divine Wind Wolf King suddenly felt a chill run through its body.
