159: Crossing the Tribulation (Part 2)

Although the world-ending divine lightning was dim, it still struck towards Li Haotian with undiminished force.

This time, Li Haotian did not use the Spirit Essence Sword to block it; instead, a bell shimmering with immortal light appeared above his head and fiercely crashed into the divine lightning.

The divine lightning was actually dispersed by this sudden collision.

The fourth Celestial Tribulation was passed safely, only the Celestial Tribulation energy in the sky became even more concentrated.

...

In the Ten Thousand Beasts Sea, due to the Chaos World-Ending Celestial Tribulation, no one was audacious enough to come and disturb Li Haotian's tribulation.

They merely observed Li Haotian's tribulation from a great distance, among them were many Loose Immortals and Loose Monsters.

Looking at the Celestial Tribulation above Li Haotian's head, they were surprised to find that the strongest Heavenly Tribulation they faced during their Loose Immortal tribulation couldn't compare to his first one.

Furthermore, Li Haotian's attacks were simply something they couldn't withstand.

"Who is this person? To actually undergo tribulation here?"

"He should be from one of the Four Great Springs or Five Great Heavenly Gates, otherwise, it's impossible to have such powerful combat strength."

"Unclear, but I haven't seen him. It's also possible he's an old monster cultivating in seclusion within a large Cave Heaven."

"Forget it, this isn't something we can get involved in. Let's just watch from afar here."

"Yes, his attack has already surpassed a Nine Tribulation Loose Immortal. He shouldn't be an unknown figure."

"Let's watch, let's watch. If there's a bargain to be had, we'll take it. If not, we'll retreat. Anyway, we won't participate in this Celestial Tribulation, it's too terrifying."

"What he holds in his hand should be an Immortal Artifact of middle-grade or higher, its power is very strong."

"Yes, that's right, the power is indeed very strong. If we could get it, passing the next Celestial Tribulation would be foolproof."

...

They didn't dare to approach the Celestial Tribulation, but if Li Haotian died and the Celestial Tribulation dispersed, they would definitely swarm forward and snatch all of Li Haotian's treasures.

But if Li Haotian successfully passed the Celestial Tribulation, they would also see if there was an opportunity.

If Li Haotian was weak, they would attack without hesitation. If Li Haotian was still powerful, they would turn around and leave.

This is the Immortal World, the Immortal World where the strong prey on the weak.

Li Haotian didn't pay attention to them. Even if he was very weak by then, Mu Mu and Xiaotian would take him away.

He believed in Mu Mu's speed and Xiaotian's methods, their combat power was absolutely Wushuang.

Three hours later, Li Haotian looked up at the sky. The world-ending divine lightning in the Celestial Tribulation gathered again. At this moment, the incredibly powerful fifth divine lightning had already struck down.

Holding the Spirit Essence Sword, Li Haotian pointed at the divine lightning and shouted, "Five Swords of Guiyuan, unite, kill!"

The sword light flew out and struck the divine lightning. The divine lightning dimmed a little, but its power remained.

Seeing that his single sword strike didn't have much effect, Li Haotian struck out with another sword.

"Seven Swords of Guiyuan, seven swords unite, slash!"

Countless sword qi fused, condensing into a giant sword light, which once again struck towards the divine lightning descending from the sky.

"Boom!"

As the divine lightning approached Li Haotian, it was struck by the giant sword light and instantly dissipated.

At this moment, his heart felt a little despair, because this was only the fifth Celestial Tribulation.

According to the Nine-Nine Celestial Tribulation, he still had seventy-six more Celestial Tribulations.

Honestly, Li Haotian didn't know how many more strikes he could withstand.

Under this powerful divine lightning, Li Haotian murmured, "Could it be that my first tribulation is going to end in failure?"

In the distance, Xiaotian was dumbfounded. He didn't expect Li Haotian's attack to be so powerful. This could already be comparable to a True Immortal Peak, right?

It naturally knew that this was definitely not Li Haotian's strongest attack, because at this time, Li Haotian's life-bound magical treasure and life-bound Sword Embryo had not yet been used.

"Boss, there are still four Celestial Tribulations left, you must hold on!" Xiaotian suddenly shouted loudly.

Li Haotian, who was originally despairing, heard this and couldn't help but look towards Xiaotian.

"Xiaotian, you mean this Celestial Tribulation only has nine stages?"

Xiaotian quickly said, "Boss, this is the Chaos World-Ending Celestial Tribulation. It has rules; only nine stages can appear. If you endure through the nine stages, you will successfully pass the tribulation."

Li Haotian felt a little excited in his heart. He didn't expect that only four Celestial Tribulations were left. This was manageable.

With the means he possessed, he could definitely endure the remaining four stages, even if the power of each stage increased by a hundredfold.

Dark clouds rolled in the sky, the entire sea surface raged with strong winds, and under the dark clouds, it was like the end of the world, which sent shivers down the spines of many onlookers.

If they were to face such a Celestial Tribulation, they would probably perish without even a single exchange.

Li Haotian was quite formidable, with Wushuang combat power, destroying one Celestial Tribulation with two sword strikes.

Four hours later, the sixth world-ending divine lightning struck down with a roar.

A powerful pressure bore down on Li Haotian. This time, the divine lightning was thicker than a bucket and looked extremely terrifying.

Li Haotian's expression remained unchanged. He coldly watched the descending divine lightning and suddenly drew his sword.

"Eight Swords of Guiyuan, eight swords unite, kill!"

Centered around the Spirit Essence Sword, it was as if eight sword lights appeared around it. The eight sword lights instantly merged into one enormous sword light, which, driven by the Spirit Essence Sword, slashed towards the descending Celestial Tribulation.

"Slash!"

"Crack!"

The originally powerful divine lightning was actually cut into two sections. As a result, the divine lightning dimmed significantly, half of it disappeared along with the sword light, and the other half continued to attack Li Haotian.

"Soul-Suppressing Bell, block it for me!"

The Soul-Suppressing Bell above his head suddenly grew larger and slammed into the remaining divine lightning.

"Boom!"

"Buzz!"

The divine lightning was blocked by the Soul-Suppressing Bell more than ten meters away from Li Haotian, unable to advance another step.

Not long after, the divine lightning energy dissipated and vanished.

Li Haotian gasped for breath, and two Elixirs went directly into his mouth, transforming into surging energy that restored Li Haotian's magic power.

In the dark clouds, a vortex-like bolt of lightning continuously condensed, causing the surrounding onlookers to retreat repeatedly.

"This, is this really a Celestial Tribulation that a human can withstand? Perhaps even the Twelve Loose Immortal Tribulations are not as good as it."

"Yes, it's not like we haven't seen the Twelve Loose Immortal Tribulations. They are not even one percent, or even one thousandth, of this Celestial Tribulation. If I were to face such a Celestial Tribulation, I wouldn't be able to withstand even one strike."

"That person is so powerful, and he's also a Sword Cultivation. I wonder if he can pass such a powerful Celestial Tribulation?"

"Didn't you hear what that monster over there said? He only has three Celestial Tribulations left. We just don't know if they can withstand these three Celestial Tribulations."

"They should be able to, right? At least the Celestial Tribulation hasn't attacked him yet, and hasn't even touched the hem of his clothes."

"As long as he resists the Celestial Tribulation in this state, he should be able to pass this kind of Celestial Tribulation, right?"

"Wait, a Celestial Tribulation with only nine stages... I seem to have thought of something."

"Quickly tell us, quickly tell us, so we can broaden our horizons."

"Yes! Quickly tell us."

"Okay, then I'll tell you. Actually, the Celestial Tribulations at the peak of tribulation are all Nine-Nine Celestial Tribulations, but there are two types of people who are different. The Celestial Tribulations they face are not normal Nine-Nine Celestial Tribulations."

"One type is people with deep sins. They generally need to pass the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning Celestial Tribulation. This is a heavenly punishment, also known as a heavenly curse. This type of Celestial Tribulation only has nine stages and is extremely terrifying."

"The other type is the current Chaos World-Ending Celestial Tribulation, also known as the Chaos Divine Lightning Celestial Tribulation. Those who undergo this type of Celestial Tribulation are all exceptionally talented individuals. Because they are envied by heaven, this world-ending Celestial Tribulation is sent down."

"The power of the two types of Celestial Tribulations is similar, but the people they target are different. It seems we have witnessed a monstrous genius undergoing tribulation."

Everyone else suddenly understood. So there was such a saying about Celestial Tribulations. It seems that in the future, one must commit less slaughter. It would be bad if they were targeted by the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning Tribulation when undergoing tribulation.
