The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 515 - 298: Want a Few More Shots?

But the thirty-fourth strike of Heavenly Tribulation that Nangong Zhen faced still glead brightly; where was there any God Slaying Thunder! A similarly bright idea flashed through everyone’s minds: it turns out that the tribulations of Nangong were not limited to just four layers!

This strike of tribulation thunder was also absorbed by the Illusion Fish Formation. The forms of the more than twenty goldfish in the array beca clearer and clearer, with scales now countable. However, Nangong Zhen silently sighed to himself: "As expected."

In his early years, he had committed many wrongdoings. He could conceal these from Guangcheng Palace and others, but not from the cosmos. When it was ti for Crossing Tribulation, the cosmos would co to settle accounts with him! What he had to deal with now was at least the Fifth Level Heavenly Tribulation.

Only Nangong Zhen himself knew that this Illusion Fish Formation was a Magic Artifact he had obtained from an ancient immortal’s Cave Mansion, with very strong defensive power. The gigantic tree at his side had been given precious ti to rest and imdiately seized the mont to regrow its vast canopy. "This tree was almost split dead, can it still be useful later?"

As if responding to her question, fruits suddenly began to appear in the dark green shade of the tree. In just a few breaths, the tree bore ten shimring silver fruits.

"This... this big tree has really borne fruit. Is it planning to use the fruit to block the thunderstrike?" Ning Xiaoxian gaped in shock.

Changtian couldn’t help but laugh: "You have quite the imagination. These fruits are likely the result of the big tree absorbing the power of the previous thunder strikes, and Nangong Zhen will surely use the sa thod against them."Indeed, as soon as he finished speaking, two silver fruits automatically flew into Nangong Zhen’s hands, and he squeezed them casually, turning two flashes of thunder into silver snakes that clung to a newly taken out Magic Artifact.

The Magic Artifact that Nangong Zhen took out this ti was the renowned "God-beating Whip"! Though it is nad a whip, it actually has the shape of a club. This one certainly wasn’t the weapon used by Jiang Ziya in "Fengshen Yanyi" and wasn’t limited to only being able to strike Gods and not humans. However, it was ivory-yellow throughout, divided into twenty-six sections, each section having four Fu inscriptions, amounting to a total of eighty-four Fu inscriptions, many with marvelous uses.

He was the Sect Leader of a grand Immortal Sect. Although the Sect could not cross the tribulation for him, they could provide him with the best Magic Artifacts, exploiting loopholes in the Heavenly Dao. This was like how many companies and individuals nowadays try every ans to pay less tax, which isn’t called tax evasion but rather "tax avoidance."

The fortieth thunderstrike arrived. The current tribulation thunder was like a barrage, leaving no breathing space. In just this quarter hour, Ning Xiaoxian felt she had witnessed many wonders; there were so many shapes of lightning - electric snake style, rolling style, spherical, arboreal, and even in the forms of letters from various countries - but the power was increasingly trendous, and their color increasingly fierce.

The entire Wild Valley was perated with a dangerous aura. With this strike, waterwave Illusions in the air surged like tempests, and among them, over ten goldfish suddenly could not bear the pressure, bursting apart and imdiately disappearing. But everyone knew that the formation could not hold on much longer.

Five more strikes of Heavenly Tribulation! If he could withstand these, Nangong Zhen would be considered successful.

The forty-first strike landed, shattering the Illusion Fish Formation; the waterwaves, goldfish, and rocks all turned into re bubbles, obliterated by the lightning without a trace left.

The forty-second strike landed, turning the big tree instantly into char. The remaining eight silver fruits automatically leaped into Nangong Zhen’s arms. Everyone’s eyes widened, ready to see how he would survive these last three terrifying strikes.

The forty-third strike of Heavenly Tribulation followed the forty-second sneakily but took the form of a huge Battle Axe, with Thunder Prison roaring all around it. Such power caused Ning Xiaoxian, standing five hundred feet away, to feel palpitations. She had shed her Mortal Body, but had never seen such a fearso scene. Changtian, sensing sothing, transmitted his clear voice through the flashes and roars of thunder to her ears: "Rid yourself of the Six Desires to find serenity; aspire to regard the Bright Moon on the Elixir Platform."

The Six Desires refer to the cravings for life, death, hearing, sight, taste, and sll. Her shock at the thunder strikes was exactly due to her inability to see through the desire for life and death. The fourteen words he uttered with infused Divine Skills truly struck her like evening drum and morning bell, resonating deeply within her heart.

Ning Xiaoxian imdiately awoke from the terror of the cosmic might, and while her complexion was still pale, her eyes beca much more resolute.

At this point, Nangong Zhen no longer kept secrets and flicked a purple light-entwined inkstone from his sleeve to et the colossal Thunder Axe coming down from the heavens. The inkstone, which would have ordinarily been admired as a top-notch piece that was smooth to the touch and sharp upon grinding, was now for Nangong simply a hope to block the strike of thunder from above.
