321: Mahayana!

In reality, because of Feng Ming's interference, this Lightning Tribulation seemed more like Feng Ming's than Zhang Bai's.

Feng Ming remained seated cross-legged in mid-air. Within the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder in his body, a finger-thick bolt of white lightning had already begun to manifest as if it were solidifying.

Looking at this newly appeared white lightning, Feng Ming was also somewhat confused about the situation. Had the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder undergone a qualitative change, or had a completely new bolt of lightning been born within him?

In fact, Feng Ming wasn't even sure if this lightning would vanish after the Lightning Tribulation ended. This wasn't just him worrying over nothing; when the second wave of the Lightning Tribulation disappeared, this white lightning had also rapidly dissipated, only reappearing when the third wave struck.

Zhang Bai's Lightning Tribulation did not exceed Feng Ming's expectations. Back at Wangyue Spring, when he used the Nine Dragon Thunder Tribulation Formation against North Desert's group, he had already experienced a similar situation.

Therefore, Feng Ming had some experience in helping Zhang Bai withstand the Lightning Tribulation.

Soon, the third wave of this Three-Nine Lightning Tribulation finally dissipated.

Just as Feng Ming feared, the white lightning within the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder also rapidly faded. Within just a few breaths, the white lightning had completely vanished, as if it had never existed.

This left Feng Ming feeling empty inside, with a sense of melancholy loss.

At the same time, Zhang Bai's excited voice rang out from below, "I've broken through! Hahaha... I've broken through! Is this what the Mahayana Stage feels like? Amazing, this is absolutely amazing!"

Feng Ming looked down and saw Zhang Bai's body emitting ripples of golden light—it was precisely the golden light of the Mahayana Stage!

Seeing Feng Ming look at him, Zhang Bai said excitedly, "Feng Ming, thank you! I'm a man of my word—from now on, you're my big brother!"

"Damn, who would've thought that for such an important Lightning Tribulation, someone would actually help me tank the lightning? This is just too great."

"Holy shit, what is that?" Zhang Bai had just finished speaking when his expression suddenly changed.

Almost simultaneously, Feng Ming also sensed an even more terrifying fluctuation of divine thunder gathering in the sky.

Looking up, he saw a total of four bolts of lightning striking down toward him at the same time.

At this sight, let alone the others, even Feng Ming himself was dumbfounded!

"Holy shit, isn't the Lightning Tribulation already over? Why is there more? What's going on?"

This scene also shocked everyone else. Everyone looked bewildered, and the gaze of Jiang Shuwan's group fell upon Zhao Peng.

It couldn't be helped; among these people, Zhao Peng seemed to have the most knowledge.

Lu Qianqian should have known, but she hadn't arrived yet. Jiang Shuwan was a concubines daughter who was not favored in the Jiang Family, so she certainly wouldn't understand these things.

Relatively speaking, Zhao Peng's knowledge should be more comprehensive. Facing everyone's questioning gazes, Zhao Peng also felt a massive headache.

"I'm telling you, don't look at me! This business of forcibly tanking someone else's Lightning Tribulation is a once-in-a-century occurrence. I don't know what's going on either!"

"Don't you guys have contact with the outside world? Quickly try to contact them and ask about the situation!"

Jiang Shuwan immediately prepared to contact Feng Da, but Feng Mian, who was beside her, said, "It's probably too late to ask. There's a delay in our communication with the outside world. Once a Lightning Tribulation starts, it won't stop and it moves fast. By the time Feng Da finds the information, the tribulation will probably be over."

Jiang Shuwan's heart tightened upon hearing this, but she still sent a message to Feng Da to try anyway—what if there was still time?

At this moment, it wasn't just them; the other Cultivators within the Trial Grounds were also stunned, and they began to discuss it one after another.

"Damn, what's the deal? Wasn't it a Three-Nine Lightning Tribulation? Isn't it already over? Why is there more?"

"I'm saying, could it be a punishment from the Heavenly Dao against Feng Ming? Who told him to forcibly interfere in someone else's Lightning Tribulation?"

"That's entirely possible. This divine thunder clearly looks stronger than the previous ones. No wonder everyone has a tacit understanding not to interfere in others' Lightning Tribulations. Who could withstand this punishment?"

"Now there's a good show to watch! Sigh! Feng Ming does have strength, but it's a pity he overdid the posturing. He's really hit a steel wall this time!"

Inside Quiet Garden.

Jiang Qinghe's face changed drastically when he saw the scene on the light screen, and even Steward Jiang beside him pointed at the screen, trembling.

"This... this is the Six-Tribulation Heavenly Punishment. What should we do?"

Jiang Qinghe shook his head. "There's no way. No one can block a Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation. Even if I went there, it would only make things more uncontrollable and might even affect the entire Trial Grounds. That Feng family kid has overplayed his hand this time."

Steward Jiang hurriedly asked, "But Master, is there really no other way?"

Jiang Qinghe fell silent for a moment before saying, "It's not that there's no way at all, but we don't actually know the specifics of Feng Ming's strength."

"Do you remember the Feng Lei we mentioned before?"

"Senior Feng Lei?" Steward Jiang was startled.

Jiang Qinghe nodded. "During his lifetime, Senior Feng Lei once nurtured a bolt of Purple Heaven Divine Thunder! This Purple Heaven Divine Thunder is a divine thunder as powerful as the Undergoing Tribulation divine thunder!"

"If Feng Ming also obtained this divine thunder when he received the Legacy, then there's still hope for this Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation!"

Hearing this, Steward Jiang worriedly said, "The Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation is a punishment from the heavens. The difficulty of the tribulation exceeds one's own tribulation point. Can it really be blocked with just one bolt of divine thunder?"

What was the so-called Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation? It was a Lightning Tribulation sent down as punishment from the heavens. Take Feng Ming for example: if he needed to undergo a tribulation, he should have experienced a Three-Nine Heavenly Tribulation like Zhang Bai. But now that a Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation had been triggered, the power of the Lightning Tribulation would increase to a Six-Nine Lightning Tribulation.

And the Six-Nine Lightning Tribulation was the tribulation prepared for those in the Mahayana Stage breaking through to the Immortal King Realm. Thus, it was also called the Six-Nine Divine Thunder Tribulation!

Of course, there were even higher-level Lightning Tribulations later on, but because few people ever passed them, no one paid much attention to them.

After all, the strongest person in the entire Bright Moon Dynasty at present was King Haoyue, an Emperor Realm expert.

As for those further up, it was said that Grandmist Lightning Tribulations existed, but they were too distant—no one had seen them, and no one dared to even think about them.

All parties were working hard to send news into the trial grounds, but time waited for no one, especially this Lightning Tribulation—once it started, it wouldn't stop!

At this moment, in the sky, four thick bolts of lightning instantly struck Feng Ming's body. This time, Feng Ming truly understood the meaning of the word 'terrifying'.

The four waves of the Lightning Tribulation fell simultaneously, instantly rushing into his body and enveloping the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder within him.

At the same time, Feng Ming also sensed that the bolt of white lightning within the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder had re-emerged.

But at this moment, he could no longer afford to worry about this white lightning.

The power carried by these four bolts of lightning falling from the sky was countless times stronger than the previous Three-Nine Lightning Tribulation. The moment the divine thunder struck, Feng Ming felt as if a weight of ten thousand catties had been pressed onto his body, leaving him unable to move.
