157: Strongly overcome the tribulation! Lin Xuan breaks through the Saint Realm!

Purple Violet Emperor Palace

A beautiful woman with a dignified and luxurious demeanor calculated with her fingers, her expression changing drastically: "Hmm? A chaotic void... quickly investigate which heaven's favored one this is!"

...

Heavenly Secret Pavilion

This most mysterious and dominant force, renowned throughout the entire continent for its heavenly mystery calculations, found their usually proud heavenly mystery techniques failing one after another at this moment...

"Strange, I can't deduce any information about this person, only a chaotic void..."

...

However, when the powerhouses from all sides used their deduction techniques, they only saw a chaotic void.

The heavenly secrets were completely obscured, and no one could glimpse the true appearance of the tribulation transcender.

...

Lin Family

Looking at the terrifying blood-red tribulation cloud above, Lin Xuan slightly furrowed his brow, exuding an unstoppable momentum.

The next moment

"Boom!"

The first scarlet lightning bolt struck down with a roar, as thick as a water bucket. Wherever it passed, space was torn to shreds.

At the same time, it was accompanied by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, capable of incinerating everything, which surged towards Lin Xuan like a tidal wave.

And facing this terrifying Red Lotus Karmic Fire Tribulation, Lin Xuan didn't dodge or evade, instead directly using his Physical Body to withstand it!

"Bang!"

The moment the lightning struck Lin Xuan, faint golden patterns appeared on the surface of his body.

The "Nine Revolutions Golden Body Art" circulated to its extreme, forcefully dissolving this terrifying lightning bolt.

This was an Emperor-level Body Refining technique that Lin Xuan had signed in for a month ago. Now, a month later, Lin Xuan had already cultivated it to the minor completion stage.

Coupled with his already incredibly powerful Physical Body and surging vitality, even directly withstanding the first Red Lotus Karmic Fire Tribulation caused him no significant harm.

"Refreshing!"

Lin Xuan laughed heartily, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.

He could feel that although the Red Lotus Karmic Fire Tribulation was terrifying, with each strike endured, his Physical Body underwent subtle changes, becoming even more resilient and powerful.

The second and third lightning bolts fell one after another, each more powerful than the last.

But Lin Xuan withstood them all purely with his Physical Body!

This was truly terrifying!

Indeed, at this moment, the members of the Lin Family were basically frozen in place, all stunned by Lin Xuan's audacious actions and powerful Physical Body...

"Hiss—"

"Young Master's Physical Body is simply invincible..."

"Directly withstanding the legendary Red Lotus Karmic Fire Tribulation, something I wouldn't even dare to dream of, Young Master actually did it, and without much harm!!!"

...

Even Lin Changxiao and the other two, who had lived for over ten thousand years, were too shocked to speak at this moment...

After a long while, Lin Changxiao's voice drifted out, "It seems... this old man can still protect the Lin Family for a few more years..."

...

By the fifth strike, the lightning was as thick as a house. The moment it struck, the entire mountain peak was razed to the ground.

When the dust settled, Lin Xuan still stood tall, only his clothes were shattered, revealing his muscular upper body.

On his bronze-colored skin, the golden patterns became even more distinct, flowing like living things.

The sixth Lightning Tribulation clearly took longer to brew.

The blood-colored tribulation cloud churned, gradually condensing into the shape of a giant Red Lotus.

When the lightning struck, it was no longer simple lightning, but a scarlet pillar of fire. The temperature was so high that even the air was burned into nothingness.

"This Lightning Tribulation already possesses the power of a Great Saint Realm Lightning Tribulation." Lin Xuan's expression was solemn, and he finally summoned his 본Life Spirit Sword (natal spirit sword) - Holy Abyss.

Lin Xuan stood holding his sword, his entire Aura suddenly changing, like a sharp sword unsheathed.

"Heaven Split!"

The holy abyss sword unleashed a brilliant sword light, colliding with the scarlet fire pillar in mid-air.

A terrifying shockwave spread out, uprooting trees within dozens of miles, and cracks appeared on the ground.

The fire pillar was cut open by the sword, but the residual power still sent Lin Xuan flying back a hundred zhang, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"What a powerful Lightning Tribulation!" Lin Xuan wiped away the blood, his eyes burning with even more intense fighting spirit, "Again!"

The seventh Lightning Tribulation followed closely, this time transforming into nine scarlet lightning snakes, attacking Lin Xuan from different angles.

Each lightning snake contained destructive power, and fine cracks appeared in space wherever they passed.

"Sword Shadow!"

Lin Xuan's figure was like lightning, his sword light transforming into several Clones, striking at the nine lightning snakes.

Each clash triggered deafening explosions, forcing the Lin Family Cultivators watching from afar to retreat once again.

When the last lightning snake was destroyed, Lin Xuan's sword-holding hand was trembling slightly, his tiger's mouth split open, and blood dripped down the sword body.

The eighth Lightning Tribulation did not give Lin Xuan a chance to rest.

Within the blood-colored tribulation cloud, a giant sword completely condensed from lightning slowly formed. The sword tip pointed directly at Lin Xuan's location.

"This is... the Sword of Heavenly Punishment?" An old Cultivator with extensive knowledge exclaimed, "Legend says this Lightning Tribulation form is only encountered by those who defy the heavens!"

The moment the giant sword struck down, the world seemed to fall silent.

Lin Xuan took a deep breath, his spiritual energy circulating wildly within his body, all injected into the holy abyss sword.

"God Evasion!"

A dark red sword light condensed to the extreme shot up into the sky, directly confronting the Sword of Heavenly Punishment.

The two forces were locked in a stalemate, tearing black cracks in space.

"Break for me!" Lin Xuan roared, his sword light suddenly surged, forcefully splitting the Sword of Heavenly Punishment in half!

"Rumble!"

Amidst the earth-shattering explosion, Lin Xuan was sent flying by the aftermath, crashing heavily into the mountain.

When he struggled to climb out, he was covered in blood, his Aura weak to the extreme, but the fighting spirit in his eyes had not diminished in the slightest.

At this moment, the ninth Lightning Tribulation was brewing.

The blood-colored tribulation cloud contracted to the extreme, actually transforming into a hundred-zhang long blood-colored lightning dragon. The dragon's eyes contained power capable of destroying the heavens and earth, and a sea of fire transformed from Red Lotus Karmic Fire permeated the surroundings.

"This Lightning Tribulation... even exceeds the power of a Saint King Realm Lightning Tribulation..." Lin Xuan smiled bitterly, but there was no intention of retreating.

He took out a few precious pills and swallowed them. His injuries recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The lightning dragon roared, and the entire Southern Nether Continent trembled.

Countless Cultivators looked up at the sky in horror, as if the end of the world had arrived.

"Come on!"

Lin Xuan plunged the holy abyss sword into the ground and quickly formed hand seals, "Heavenly Evolution Sword Array, rise!"

Thirty-six spirit swords flew out from his storage ring, forming a profound array in the air.

Each sword flickered with different colored light, echoing each other, forming a sturdy barrier.

This wasn't all. Lin Xuan then bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a mouthful of essence blood: "Spatial Law ·So close yet so far away (Within Reach, Yet Worlds Away)!"

The essence blood transformed into strange runes, forming a thin spatial barrier around him.

This was the spatial Law he had comprehended during the Heavenly Emperor Grand Ceremony. Although it was only a superficial understanding, it played a huge role at this moment.

The lightning dragon finally plunged down, space crumbling inch by inch wherever it passed.

The Heavenly Evolution Sword Array only held for three breaths before collapsing with a roar, all thirty-six spirit swords turning into dust.

The lightning dragon's momentum did not decrease, crashing into the spatial barrier.

The Law of So close yet so far away (Within Reach, Yet Worlds Away) greatly slowed the lightning dragon, but it was still slowly approaching.

"Boom!"

The world was filled with a white light. The dazzling light temporarily blinded everyone.

When the light dissipated, the lightning dragon was gone, only Lin Xuan was kneeling on one knee, his Aura extremely weak.

But the blood-colored tribulation cloud in the sky began to dissipate, and a ray of golden sunlight penetrated the clouds, shining on Lin Xuan.

He succeeded!

As the Lightning Tribulation ended, an extremely pure energy of heaven and earth descended from the sky, injecting into Lin Xuan's body.

His injuries rapidly recovered, and the spiritual energy within his body began to undergo a qualitative change, transforming into higher-level Saint Yuan power.

When Lin Xuan stood up again, his entire temperament was completely different.

Every move and gesture carried an extraordinary and refined charm.

More strangely, a faint Red Lotus mark appeared on his brow, with faint fire light flowing within it.

"Red Lotus Karmic Fire tempering..." Lin Xuan felt the changes in his body, revealing a hint of a smile, "It seems this risk was worth it."

At the same time, throughout the Southern Nether Continent, countless forces sent out scouts to search for the mysterious heaven's favored one who had transcended the Red Lotus Karmic Fire Tribulation.

The major dominant forces even directly sent emissaries with generous terms, hoping to recruit this future peerless powerhouse.

But they were destined to be disappointed...
