Chapter 839: Chapter 845: Speculation Chapter 839: Chapter 845: Speculation Boom—
The first Tribulation Thunder, thick as a bucket, crashed down with a rumble, aiming directly at Da Qing below.
And at this ti, Da Qing had already transford into his spirit turtle true form, resembling a small mountain with a vast body; his thick shell exuded a full sense of security.
Crack!
Faced with the blindingly fearso Tribulation Thunder, Da Qing withstood it with his physical body alone, and he seed unhard at a glance.
The Turtle Clan, not adept at attacking, possesses an exceptionally strong talent for defense; ever since his contract with Li Zhirui, Da Qing had focused almost all of his energy on fortifying his defenses.
Da Qing shook his head. Judging by the intensity of the Tribulation Thunder, he should be able to resist the second and third strikes with his physical body, primarily, and spells and Divine Powers secondarily.
As for the subsequent strikes, whether he could continue this strategy would depend on developnts yet to unfold.
Bang!
Half an incense stick’s ti later, the second Tribulation Thunder roared toward Da Qing, and the clanspeople watching from afar only heard a violent collision that made one involuntarily cover their ears.
Yet Da Qing stood immovable like a mountain, steadfast in the midst of the Thunder Tribulation.
“What terrifying physical strength!”
Not only Nascent Soul Cultivators like Li Chengshuo but also the Fourth Order Spirit Beasts that had co to watch, exclaid in amazent.
From their position over a dozen miles away, they could feel the terror of the Tribulation Thunder; had they been standing there, they might have needed to exhaust all asures just to survive the strikes.
While Da Qing rely stood there, doing nothing, and with his physical body alone, he continuously withstood two strikes of Tribulation Thunder!
If one observed Da Qing’s expression closely at this mont, they would find he was not as relaxed as the crowd imagined, because he keenly sensed that the intensity of the Tribulation Thunder was increasing too quickly!
When the third Tribulation Thunder struck, Da Qing’s guess was confird.
Boom, Boom, Boom—
Yet Da Qing’s unguarded actions seed to have angered the Thunder Tribulation; the subsequent three strikes of Tribulation Thunder relentlessly and continuously plumted down.
Da Qing’s gaze grew intense as he stirred the Mana within his body, gathering all the surrounding Wood Qi to form black Wooden Shields, one overlaying another, ultimately constructing an impenetrable giant bell, encasing him completely.
Before facing the Tribulation, Da Qing had also chosen within the Sea of Laws the Law he intended to cultivate in the future—the Bedrock Wood Law.
As the na suggests, this is a Law that focuses on defense.
It also shows that Da Qing has always been progressing in accordance with Li Zhirui’s plans.
Although Da Qing had not yet broken through to the Fifth Order, he had already mastered a part of the Bedrock Wood Law, so his spells and Divine Powers carried a hint of its properties.
In other words, the Wood-attribute Skills and Divine Powers cast by Da Qing beca even more resilient.
As for the Thunder Vine Spirit Seeds that Li Zhirui had given him, Da Qing was not keen on using them; he wanted to attempt to overco the Thunder Tribulation on his own.
Of course, Da Qing was not an obstinate stickler; if he encountered difficulties, he would use them as needed.
The Wooden Shields, under the impact of the Tribulation Thunder, shattered one by one, but they seed infinite, remaining in place until the energy of the three strikes of Tribulation Thunder was completely depleted, never revealing Da Qing.
“Da Qing is almost certain to overco this Thunder Tribulation in his current state,” Li Chengshuo said softly, filled with surprise and delight.
Da Qing’s breakthrough signified that both Li Zhirui and the strength of the Li family would increase!
Da Qing had smoothly transcended the sixth and seventh Tribulation Thunders without a scratch, but the cost was a depletion of nearly seventy to eighty percent of his mana.
Luckily, Da Qing had prepared Rejuvenating Treasure Pills beforehand. After swallowing a few, the once empty Dantian quickly brimd with mana.
The might of the eighth Tribulation Thunder was slightly beyond Da Qing’s expectations, managing to breach his defenses and reach him.
However, the remaining energy was not much different from the second Tribulation Thunder, so Da Qing did not set up defenses and instead directly withstood it with his physical body.
But this also served as a wake-up call for Da Qing; he must give his all to confront this final Tribulation Thunder! He couldn’t let his guard down due to the previous ease!
Several Rejuvenating Treasure Pills were kept in his mouth in advance, and a handful of Thunder Vine Spirit Seeds were tightly grasped in his hand. His mana poured out like a flood to construct the strongest defense.
When the ninth Tribulation Thunder took shape amidst the endless clouds and cleaved down from the Tianqiong, its pillar-like size left all cultivators dumbstruck.
“Why is this last Tribulation Thunder so terrifying?”
Through observations from nurous Golden Core clansn’s Tribulation Transcendences, the Li family was no longer ignorant about Thunder Tribulation. They deduced a sowhat reliable conclusion—the power of each subsequent Tribulation Thunder was about twenty percent stronger than the last.
The last Tribulation Thunder might differ a bit, but it would at most be thirty percent stronger.
Of course, if one carried a significant amount of Karmic Force, the reliability of this conclusion would significantly diminish.
To say Da Qing had no Karmic Force was impossible; no one could be without it—it’s just a matter of how much, whether it’s bad or good karma.
But Da Qing did not bear too much negative karma; it couldn’t be the reason for such a drastic change in the Thunder Tribulation.
Tribulation Thunder… it might as well be called a Thunder Column; when it struck, the world turned into a silver-white expanse, and most of the onlookers couldn’t even keep their eyes open.
Upon seeing the ninth Tribulation Thunder erge, Da Qing knew sothing was wrong and activated all the Thunder Vine Spirit Seeds without hesitation. Regardless of whether his ridians could handle it, he refined a massive amount of Precious Pills to recover mana and frantically strengthened his defenses.
He had made a series of preparations; if these were unable to block the Tribulation Thunder, the last line of defense would be his physical body!
And Li Zhirui, having just finished cultivating and rushing over, witnessed this scene and couldn’t help but frown.
He thought back to many years ago, when he was at the Southern Edge Comrce Association, breaking through to the Divine Transformation, and there was a sudden change in the Thunder Tribulation.
During the final Tribulation Thunder, the clouds absorbed nearby Spiritual Energy, giving birth to an even stronger Tribulation Thunder.
Li Zhirui had managed to transcend due to his resolute determination and a bit of luck.
“One or two tis might be coincidence, but if similar situations continue to occur, it would an there’s a trendous secret hidden behind it,” Li Zhirui murmured to himself.
But then he rembered that the next in the family to break through to Divine Transformation would be either Jiang Fengwu or Xiaoqing…
“It looks like I’ll need to warn them in advance, to prepare for unexpected situations; otherwise, failure is very likely,” he thought.
After all, neither Jiang Fengwu nor Xiaoqing had physical bodies as tough as Da Qing’s, nor comparable defensive abilities.
Crack, crack—
Under the barrage of the Tribulation Thunder, the Thunder Vines quickly withered, and the Wooden Shields began to shatter at a rapid pace.
Yet, the imnse Tribulation Thunder, despite so diminishnt after the onslaught, was still astonishingly large!
