Chapter 128: On the Brink of Death

Translator: 549690339

This is the power of Heavenly Might!

It strikes directly at the soul!

Shaking the very depths of the soul.

Just as the Azure Thunder Python’s mind erupted and its soul trembled, the Tribulation Thunder Pillar had already thundered down upon the space above its head.

The Azure Thunder Python’s complexion drastically changed as it roared up to the sky, its palms furiously striking out with all its might. This force condensed its entire body’s strength into a full-power blow.

Accompanied by its full-force attack, countless powers of thunder from Thunder Lake transformed into a vast river, surging towards the Tribulation Thunder Pillar.

Boom!

The might of the Azure Thunder Python’s palms clashed with the thunderous power of Thunder Lake against the Tribulation Thunder Pillar.

Heaven and Earth trembled.

A terrifying wave of air swept across countless miles.

One after another, the towering ancient trees were uprooted.

Some mythical beasts that couldn’t escape in time were scattered, like droplets of water splashed aside.

Under the force of the heavenly tribulation, these ordinarily formidable beasts were so fragile.

Even Yang Xiaotian, who had already retreated time and again, was almost blasted away by the astonishing blast.

Luckily, Yang Xiaotian had already circulated his True Yuan to protect his body, and his legs were deeply rooted into the earth. Even so, Yang Xiaotian still shook violently from the blast.

Yang Xiaotian’s thick True Yuan was dispersed by the impact of the blast.

One must know that Yang Xiaotian cultivated the Primordial Dragon Art, the highest level of cultivation technique from the Ancient Dragon Clan, condensing the strongest Dragon’s True Essence. Yet, before this blast, it was still so fragile.

And this was just a very small portion of the aftershock of the divine tribulation.

Having withstood the shock of the aftershock, Yang Xiaotian felt his whole body in pain, and the scene from just moments ago still made his heart palpitate.

All these days, he had been unwaveringly consuming Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water to cultivate, tempering his viscera and strengthening his physique. However, under the previous blast, his entire body had felt like it was about to fall apart.

Such is the terror of Heavenly Tribulation.

If such a small fraction of the aftershock was this terrifying, one can imagine how strong the tribulation force directly faced by the Azure Thunder Python was.

Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help looking towards the direction of Thunder Lake.

He saw that the center of the hundred-mile-wide Thunder Lake had been blasted out into a massive hole, scattering the countless gathered thunder powers everywhere.

The entire Thunder Lake had received unimaginable damage.

And the Azure Thunder Python had disappeared without a trace.

A thump sounded in Yang Xiaotian’s heart. The strike by the heavenly tribulation thunder just now hadn’t killed the Azure Thunder Python, had it?

With such a horrifying force, being completely obliterated wasn’t impossible.

As Yang Xiaotian thought this, the surface of Thunder Lake quaked, and a giant beast slowly emerged—a sight of the Azure Thunder Python.

Apparently, having borne the strike of the tribulation thunder, the Azure Thunder Python had been blasted into the bottom of Thunder Lake.

The re-emerging Azure Thunder Python’s once bright dragon scales were now dull and without luster, blackened in many places, and its body suffered grievous injuries.

Just as Yang Xiaotian thought the Azure Thunder Python had narrowly survived the Divine Tribulation, the voice of the Medicine Cauldron echoed, “It’s still early days yet, that was just the appetizer.”

An appetizer?

Yang Xiaotian was stunned.

Suddenly, the clouds of tribulation thunder that had dispersed above the Nine Heavens began to gather once more.

Yang Xiaotian was shocked.

Could it be?

“You think Divine Tribulation is so easy to transcend? The next wave of tribulation thunder will be twice as strong as the previous one,” the Medicine

Cauldron said.

Twice as strong!

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaotian was terrified.

He had already experienced the horror of the previous thunder tribulation. If it were to be twice as powerful, how terrifying would that be?

The Azure Thunder Python was already injured from the previous thunder tribulation. Could it withstand the next strike?

“How many more instances does the Divine Tribulation have before it ends?” Yang Xiaotian asked.

“For a Divine Beast such as this, it generally must face the Three Thunder Tribulation,” Medicine Cauldron replied.

Three thunders!

It had already endured one thunder strike; thus, there were two more to come!

“And the last thunder strike will be the strongest,” Medicine Cauldron said. “That’s why I said, this Azure Thunder Python’s chances of successfully transcending Divine Tribulation are slim! Based on its current condition, unless something unexpected happens, it can only survive the first two strikes.”

At that moment, the thunderclouds above the Nine Heavens expanded with terrifying speed. With each expansion, the lightning within grew stronger.

The terrifying Heavenly Might enveloped Thunder Lake and its surroundings.

The heavenly might just now was already horrifying, but this time, it’s even stronger.

Yang Xiaotian felt as though a great mountain was pressing down on him, rendering him utterly unable to breathe.

Just as Yang Xiaotian was about to retreat, the Medicine Cauldron spoke, “Do not retreat! Circulate your Dragon Essence and guard your mind closely!”

Following the instructions, Yang Xiaotian fiercely guarded his mentality and vigorously circulated his Dragon Essence. A series of True Essence Dragons coiled around his body, emitting an overwhelming aura of dragon might.

As if sensing the dragon might emanating from Yang Xiaotian’s body, the heavenly might became increasingly stronger and heavier.

But Yang Xiaotian persisted, refusing to retreat, and his own dragon might grew stronger as well.

Suddenly, the Tribulation Thunder from the Nine Heavens struck down once more.

Heaven and Earth brightened for an instant.

The astonishing thunder pillar rotated and in the blink of an eye, it was above the Azure Thunder Python’s head. This time, the pillar was thicker, the lightning more intense, and its speed faster.

When the Tribulation Thunder struck, it was like an explosion in the Azure Thunder Python’s mind, causing turmoil in its soul.

However, this time it was prepared. The moment the Tribulation Thunder came crashing down, it opened its mouth and spat out a colossal Thunder Hammer.

This colossal Thunder Hammer, bursting with lightning, seemed poised to blast through the Heavenly Capital itself.

“A Divine Artifact?!” Yang Xiaotian exclaimed when he saw the huge Thunder Hammer.

The Medicine Cauldron expressed surprise, “I didn’t expect this Azure Thunder

Python to actually possess a Divine Artifact.”

The might of a Divine Artifact was incomparable to that of any Holy or Imperial Artifacts.

The Thunder Hammer spewed forth heavy lightning, clashing against the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Pillar.

A massive boom resonated, carrying for untold distances.

The Thunder Hammer was blasted away.

Waves of air spread out across the sky.

The ground was ripped up layer by layer.

The tsunami-like waves of air rushed towards Yang Xiaotian.

Yang Xiaotian once again intensified the True Dragon Essence.

Even so, when the wave of air surged towards him, Yang Xiaotian was still blasted into the air. His clothes were blown to shreds, and he crashed hundreds of meters away before hitting the ground and continuing to retreat dozens of steps before coming to a stop.

Yang Xiaotian felt as if his organs had been jumbled, his body nearly falling apart.

And the Azure Thunder Python was once again slammed into Thunder Lake by the thunder pillar.

The hole in Thunder Lake was blown even wider.

The entire Thunder Lake was shattered into pieces.

A long time passed without any sign of the Azure Thunder Python emerging.

At this moment, the thunder clouds above the Nine Heavens began to gather once again.

This time they condensed even faster, preparing to strike the Azure Thunder Python at the bottom of Thunder Lake.

The Azure Thunder Python had no time to use the Thunder Hammer; it opened its mouth, and a heaven-shaking roar erupted as countless thunderous musical notes flew out.

It was unleashing its Innate Divine Ability.

At the same time, a piece of armor appeared on the body of the Azure Thunder Python.

This piece of armor, endowed with astounding might, covered its entire body.

Indeed, it was another Divine Artifact.

Boom!

The Tribulation Thunder of the Nine Heavens shattered the Azure Thunder Python’s Innate Divine Ability and struck it directly.

Earth-shaking thunder resounded.

The Divine Armor on the Azure Thunder Python was blasted apart.

Thunder Lake was completely destroyed, reduced to nothingness.

The Azure Thunder Python lay at the bottom of the crater, barely clinging to life.

“Has it made it through?” Yang Xiaotian wondered, looking at the barely breathing Azure Thunder Python.

Thanks to the Divine Armor, the Azure Thunder Python had managed to hold on to its last breath.

Just as Yang Xiaotian was about to approach, a whooshing sound was heard. A figure crossed the sky at an extremely fast speed, arriving above Thunder Lake in the blink of an eye.

Upon seeing this figure, Yang Xiaotian tensed up, daring not to move an inch.

Who is this?

“Martial Saint Peak!”
