"Boom boom boom... The
Dragonblood Legion counterattacked immediately, each move ruthless and life-or-death. The figures copied by the Heavenly Dao were shattered one after another.
When those figures were shattered, pure thunder power surged into their bodies, and strange divine radiance appeared behind their heads.
"The Divine Radiance of the Realm King has appeared. They are about to step into the Realm King Realm." Someone cheered.
Facing such a terrifying tribulation, the Dragonblood Legion still succeeded—the Dragonblood warriors were simply too strong.
"Come help me."
Xia Chen shouted. His situation was different from others'—his opponent's talismans were endless, and he simply couldn't win. Without help, once his talismans were exhausted, he would surely die.
"Boom boom boom... Gu
Yang, Li Qi, and Song Mingyuan all attacked at the same time, attacking another Xia Chen. But with a flick of his hand, billions of talismans appeared.
"Damn."
Gu Yang, Li Qi, and Song Mingyuan were so terrified that they hurriedly retreated. At the very moment they retreated, billions of talismans exploded, the powerful impact sending the three of them splattering blood wildly.
"Where did he get so many talismans?" Gu Yang and the other two exclaimed in alarm. If they hadn't retreated fast enough, billions of talismans could have killed them.
"Ssshh"
Just as billions of talismans shattered, a sword aura slashed down. With a loud bang, the Xia Chen that the Heavenly Dao had copied was shattered by Yue Zifeng's sword.
"Whew."
Xia Chen thanked Yue Zifeng and took the opportunity to absorb all the thunder runes. When the runes were absorbed, divine light also flowed behind his head, and he too stepped into the Realm King realm.
"Everyone, don't just sit idle. Help the others." Gu Yang shouted loudly, because he could see that many powerful beings, no matter how desperately they tried, could not take down another version of himself.
Situations like Xia Chen's have appeared elsewhere too, and others need to help.
"Rumble rumble rumble...
At that moment, a group of figures charged in from the Ninth Heaven. It was none other than the beings of the uncharted realm. Their figures had been copied by the Heavenly Dao, and behind them were endless thunder monsters.
"Boss, our armor still needs more thunderous power." Guo Ran couldn't help but exclaim.
He knew their tribulation was complete. Although they had advanced to Realm King, the spirit of the armor and divine weapon had not yet fully awakened.
"Dragonblood warriors stay, everyone else, withdraw from the tribulation." Long Chen shouted.
Upon receiving Long Chen's order, the academy disciples, War God Hall disciples, and Xinghe Sect experts all withdrew.
They had already completed their tribulation and stepped into the Realm King realm. Now, all they needed was the final step—igniting the Realm King divine radiance.
However, to ignite the Realm King's divine radiance, the heavenly tribulation must be completely over. Because of the participation of beings from the Uninhabited Realm, their tribulation has been extended.
"Kill!"
As the two-headed black pythons of the heavenly tribulation attacked, Gu Yang and the others immediately charged forward, delivering the fiercest and most ruthless strike.
Meanwhile, the two-headed black python trapped by Lei Ling'er was anxious. If they were killed by these thunder beings and their runes absorbed by others, they would be doomed—they would never advance to Realm King in this lifetime.
"Boom boom boom... The
two-headed black python launched a furious attack on Lei Ling'er's barrier, but it still couldn't budge it in the slightest.
"Bastard, if you've got guts, let us out and fight." The two-headed black python roared in fury.
"Puff puff puff... The
Dragonblood warriors continuously slew the thunder monsters and beings from the uncharted realm. After absorbing their thunder essence, they were delighted to discover that the lightning contained a large amount of chaotic laws. Their armor and divine weapons were rapidly illuminating.
"Buzz buzz buzz... The
swords of the Dragonblood warriors began to glow. These swords suddenly showed signs of life. They finally awakened their weapon spirits and became true immortal divine weapons.
Seeing this, the Dragon Blood warriors cheered, and Xia Chen and Guo Ran were so moved they were almost in tears.
Although he believed this path was definitely feasible, he remained uneasy. Now, under the influence of the heavenly tribulation, using its power to make the divine weapon develop self-awareness and give birth to a weapon spirit, this far-fetched step had truly succeeded.
"Buzz buzz buzz buzz... The
armor and divine weapons of the Dragonblood warriors flashed wildly. This was the sign of the awakening of the artifact spirit. Once the armor awakened, it vanished in an instant, merging into the Dragonblood warriors' bodies.
However, although the artifact spirits have awakened, they are not yet true divine weapons; they require the Dragonblood Warriors to continue nurturing them with their souls.
After all, artifact spirits have just been born and are still very inexperienced, requiring careful care. They are like small flames that one day will grow into true immortal divine weapons.
The Dragonblood warriors' armor and divine weapons gradually awakened, leaving only Guo Ran's armor, because his armor was not just one, but over 360 pieces.
Fortunately, there were so many beings that Gu Yang and the others no longer needed the power of thunder. When they helped Guo Ran kill him, he kept absorbing the thunder power.
His armor flickered continuously, absorbing endless thunder. When Gu Yang pierced through the python's body with a spear, the thunder runes burst forth, and Guo Ran's golden armor suddenly lit up.
"It worked, it worked!"
Guo Ran shouted excitedly. The two-headed black python copied by the Heavenly Dao was killed. Guo Ran's battle armor instantly saturated, all components on the armor activated, and all the artifact spirits awakened.
At that moment, the entire armor felt as if it were a part of Guo Ran's body, and the feeling of sharing the same bloodline made him feel unusually familiar.
"Boom!"
At that moment, the gate to the uninhabited realm above the Ninth Heaven suddenly collapsed with a thunderous crash, and the world returned to its original state.
"The heavenly tribulation is over!"
People exclaimed in shock—the terrifying tribulation had finally ended.
"Wait, Senior Brother Long Chen hasn't even crossed the tribulation yet?" Someone exclaimed.
"Their King Realm Divine Radiance hasn't been lit up either." The others also sensed something was wrong.
If the tribulation ends, the Realm King radiance behind the Dragonblood warriors' heads will be lit up, marking the recognition of the Heavenly Dao and the true advancement to Realm King.
Now that the tribulation had dispersed, everyone's Realm King Divine Radiance showed no movement. For a moment, everyone was stunned. What was going on?
"Rumble rumble...
At that moment, the ground began to shake uncontrollably, and everyone's expressions changed instantly.
This time, the earth's trembling was not localized, but the entire world was shaking, with powerful figures gazing into the distance.
"Oh my, that's rightWhat? Someone exclaimed.
When people looked toward the horizon, they saw endless darkness—jet-black tribulation clouds surging in from all directions.
After the tribulation clouds passed, the entire world went dark, as if the apocalypse had arrived.
"Buzz buzz buzz...
At that moment, countless nameplates lit up at their waists. They all took out their nameplates, and for a moment, everyone's faces turned shocked.
They received urgent news from the sects: the entire area where the major sects were located was shrouded in terrifying tribulation clouds. The violent pressure shattered the laws of the grand formation, suspected to have been attacked by unknown forces.
These powerful beings watched the slowly surging, gradually devouring the light of the tribulation clouds. They knew that the so-called unknown attack was actually the supreme pressure of the tribulation clouds.
"Gulp"
People swallowed hard, sweat silently dripping from their foreheads.
"This heavenly tribulation has already covered the entire Nieying Heaven." At that moment, a voice rang out, startling Bai Zhantang and the others.
"Hall Master, what brings you here?"
They hadn't expected the Hall Master to personally arrive.
The Hall Master did not answer, his eyes fixed on the endless tribulation clouds, a trace of seriousness flashing in his gaze:
"This is the world-ending calamity. Long Chen is in danger."
