Chapter 577 At the Time of the Tribulation, the Person Who Returned

Thunderous lightning rumbled in the sky, and the lightning serpent and lightning python swarmed in the clouds.

Anyone could tell at this moment that this phenomenon was clearly not the lightning before an ordinary storm.

"It's a heavenly tribulation!" Ye Hongjian cried out in alarm. She looked at the youth standing there and then at the Tribulation Cloud that was gradually forming a vortex. It was obvious that the center of the Tribulation Cloud was facing Xu Han!

"He broke through! How can he break through?" Chu Chouli, who was at the side, said anxiously. Obviously, he knew more than everyone else.

"What exactly is going on? Why would someone surnamed Xu attract a heavenly tribulation? Is he about to ascend to the Immortal Realm?" Fang Ziyu didn't know why, but he asked anxiously.

Ye Hongjian raised her eyebrows, shook her head, and said, "It's not the Earth Immortal Realm, it's the Great Evolution Realm."

"Then how could it attract heavenly tribulation?" Fang Ziyu was even more puzzled.

Ye Hongjian did not answer her. Instead, she turned her head to look at Chu Chouli beside her and said, "Big Brother Chu, I think you should have told us everything you know."

…

"Heavenly Tribulation?" Li Moding killed the purple monster in front of him with a single saber strike. He wiped off the bloodstains on his face and looked at the tribulation clouds surging in the sky above Horizontal Imperial City in surprise.

The iron ball wrapped around the monster was still being sent into Horizontal Imperial City by the black-armored soldiers at the gates. The battle between Cui Ting and Du Pingce was still inextricably linked, and Horizontal Imperial City was in a mess.

"Today's Heng Imperial City is even more lively than I imagined." Marotta coldly glanced at Li Moding , whispered, even at this time, Li Moding is still difficult to hear the slightest emotion fluctuation from the mouth of the royal brother who hasn't seen for 30 years.

"Royal Brother!" Li Mo cauldron cut down the monster again, he looked at marotta again said: "This is not the way, we have to open the city to break the enemy, otherwise drag on, even if defended the horizontal imperial city, the people in the city also have to die."

Hearing this marotta indifferently glanced at Li Mo ding, his eyebrows at that time gushed out a bit of disappointment: "can't you see? They just want to lure us out of the city."

"So what? Could it be that his 50,000 strong army really be comparable to the 250,000 strong army in our hands? What are you waiting for?" Li Moding was puzzled.

Marotta heard, and sighed, he turned to look at the two people fighting in the horizon, mouth spit out two words: "immortal."

…

More and more monsters wreaked havoc in Horizontal Imperial City, and the soldiers who were sent to encircle and exterminate these monsters retreated step by step.

Each of these gigantic monsters possessed a cultivation level close to the Great Evolution Realm, and their combat strength was powerful. They were unafraid of death, so how could ordinary soldiers possibly be their opponents? Du Pingce's attack was stopped by Cui Ting. The development of the situation was gradually out of control. The once prosperous Heng Imperial City had now turned into a purgatory in the mortal world. There were pieces of flesh and corpses everywhere, and the cries of the people could be heard everywhere.

Perhaps this scene was too tragic. A golden light suddenly shone from the Longyin Mountain south of the Horizontal Imperial City, and the voices of Brahma singing overflowed, lingering around the walls of the Horizontal Imperial City.

The golden Buddhist light overflowed. Wherever it passed, the wreaking havoc monsters suddenly quieted down. All of them stopped moving, just like the wooden puppet without a lead.

The soldiers who had been forced to retreat by the monster were also stunned when they saw this scene, and they didn't know why for a moment.

At this moment, three figures bathed in golden light walked out from the top of the mountain of the Dragon Hidden Temple. They were surprisingly three high-ranking monks of the Dragon Hidden Temple. They weren't bitter, didn't listen, and weren't wise!

The citizens of the city also came back to their senses. They all knelt down towards the three figures standing out of thin air and shouted, "Thank you, Saint Monk! Thank you, Saint Monk!"

Only then did such a voice spread throughout the Royal City, and another cold voice suddenly rang out, suppressing the shouts that filled the sky.

"You've finally made your move." The voice said.

Black Qi suddenly surged out from the horizon. The black Qi condensed into a figure in front of Master Buku. Although he couldn't see his appearance clearly, a cold aura enveloped the city walls of Hengroyal City when the figure appeared.

"Shen Wushuang, it really is you!" Master Bu Ku frowned and said in a deep voice.

The black figure known as Shen Wushuang narrowed his eyes and said, "Why would a master say this? My Lunar Temple has been ordered to monitor the world since ancient times. The Four Directions Alliance is the last straw that will sustain the world. Someone from the Divine Realm naturally has to keep a close eye on the master."

At this point, the black figure paused for a moment, then said regretfully, "I don't want Master Ku to be the abbot of the Dragon Hidden Temple and break the law. He really disappointed someone."

"I know that Master Bu Ku is out of kindness, but the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao has its own limits. If Master interferes, he will touch the taboo of this world. If he is willing to stop now…"

The black figure's words were interrupted by the leading monk.

The 70-year-old monk glanced at the black figure and bowed towards him.

"It's the biggest taboo to not save a monk from death."

As soon as he finished speaking, the black figure's narrowed eyes immediately revealed a thick smile. However, he said regretfully, "In that case, someone like Shen couldn't help but make a move on Master today."

"Please." The old monk said softly without changing his expression.

The golden light behind him shone brightly, and a giant Buddha statue appeared at that time.

When the black figure saw this, the black gas behind him surged out, rivaling the golden Buddhist light and dividing the world.

He knew that from today onwards, the Quadripartite Covenant would be reduced to a piece of waste paper. This was a good start for him.

…

The heavenly thunder that had been brewing on the dome for a long time finally descended.

The lightning body was ferocious, like a knife, cutting open the heavens and the earth, illuminating the heavens and the earth.

It landed at an astonishing speed.

Xu Han's eyes widened as he looked at the lightning tribulation.

There was not the slightest bit of fear in his thunder-shining pupils. He laughed loudly, "Come on!"

This was the lightning tribulation that Mo Chen Zi had used his life to defend him outside the Exquisite Pavilion. Now that this person had passed away, he had to face those hardships and those people who had tried their best to kill him.

"My life is here. If you want it, come and get it!"

He shouted madly, as if venting, as if he was taking an oath.

Boom!

The lightning tribulation finally landed on Xu Han.

The power contained within the Heavenly Thunder was no longer something that could be described simply as strong or not. It was something that surpassed Xu Han's current level of comprehension.

Even though he had been mentally prepared for this lightning tribulation, when the lightning snake landed on his body, Xu Han's expression couldn't help but change drastically.

With just a slight contact, his internal organs were completely damaged. Although the powerful self-healing ability brought by the Immortal Realm's physical body allowed him to quickly repair the damage to his physical body, its speed was far less than the enormous destructive power of the lightning tribulation.

"A mere Great Evolution Realm cultivator who dares to face the heavenly tribulation is no different from courting death!" Seeing this, Wu Mingqiu, who was suppressed by Xu Han, sneered coldly. Although they were also affected by the lightning, it was mostly because Xu Han's cultivation had yet to reach the Immortal Realm. The lightning tribulation was restricted by certain rules, and it could not be considered too powerful. In addition, they were experts who had been in the Immortal Realm for many years, so this kind of aftershock did not cause them much substantial damage.

Hearing this, Xu Han ignored Wu Mingqiu. His expression sank as he gritted his teeth and activated the sword intent in his body. His cultivation, which had already reached the Great Evolution Realm, allowed him to condense a vast amount of sword intent within his body, but such a sword intent was still insignificant in front of the might of Heavenly Thunder.

The sword intent was instantly crushed and continued to wreak havoc in Xu Han's body.

Xu Han was not annoyed by this result.

He activated his right arm and began to absorb the lightning energy crazily. More than half of the lightning energy surged along Xu Han's right arm. A portion of the lightning energy was poured into the seventh Demon Cave, and more of it flowed along Xu Han's arm towards the three immortals who were restrained by him.

The expressions of Wu Mingqiu and the others who still had time to mock Xu Han changed. Although the power of the Heavenly Lightning wasn't as strong as when they arrived at the Immortal Realm, they were also restrained by the demon arm, unable to display their full strength. Rolling heavenly lightning instantly landed on their bodies along their arms, and cries of alarm and sorrow sprang out from the mouths of the three immortals, completely disappearing from their previous immortal demeanor.

Xu Han knew that although Heavenly Lightning was unable to seriously injure the three of them, it was enough to make them suffer. They were temporarily unable to flip the storm, and Xu Han had enough time to resist the lightning tribulation.

Although the sword intent's mighty strike did not cause any substantial damage to the heavenly lightning, it caused its wreaking havoc within Xu Han's body to slightly halt. This stagnation gave Xu Han the opportunity to absorb more than half of the heavenly lightning power with his right arm, while the remaining portion was still enough to endanger Xu Han's life.

He had already expected this, so he thought to himself, "Starlight!"

The starlight left behind by the watcher in his body moved in response, gushing out from his body, directly shaking the remaining thunder power in his body.

The power of heavenly thunder was incomparably vast, but the power of starlight was similarly indestructible.

The power of the collision was so terrifying that it was almost unimaginable. Xu Han's organs, which were already on the verge of being damaged, were completely damaged by this collision. If it was an ordinary person, they would have died on the spot by now. However, Xu Han was able to hang on to his Undying Realm fleshly body for a breath of time.

Then, he gritted his teeth and recited the incantation of the "Great Dragon Elephant Seal" in his heart. He circulated it and drove the powerful force that the two collided with into his chaotic body.

However, at this moment, the second bolt of lightning had already been brewed and was about to land on Xu Han.

Sensing this, Xu Han gritted his teeth and raised his head. He looked at the surging Tribulation Cloud without the slightest bit of fear in his heart.

Master Wei once said that the more frightened he was, the angrier he would be.

He could feel the rage from the sky from the tribulation cloud, but he could also feel the fear behind the rage.

"Are you afraid of me!" Xu Han laughed arrogantly. Blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth and covered his entire chin. His appearance was both ferocious and terrifying.

"Since the Linglong Pavilion, you've been afraid of me!"

"Then come! Kill Xu Han today!"

"If you let me live one more day, I'll be stronger. If you can't kill me…"

"One day, when I step into the Immortal Realm, you will die!"

He shouted loudly. This kind of words seemed to have really reached the ears of some great figure in the dark. The tribulation clouds in the horizon surged even more violently, and the second bolt of heavenly thunder finally descended at that moment.

…

"Xiao Han!" Seeing the thick lightning engulfing Xu Han's body, Ye Hongjian's heart burned with anxiety.

She forcefully slapped the barrier that was opened by demonic power, trying to charge into it, but with her cultivation, it was like a fantasy.

Even though she had been frustrated countless times before that her cultivation couldn't keep up with Xu Han's pace and couldn't really help him, this time, this feeling was unprecedentedly turbulent and made her feel unprecedentedly regretful.

Although the people beside them did not speak, their ugly expressions had clearly displayed the gloominess in their hearts.

"How long can he last?" However, at this moment, an extremely calm voice suddenly sounded from behind the crowd.

Everyone's hearts trembled as they subconsciously looked back.

However, the scene in front of them stunned them again. Dozens of black-robed figures were already standing behind them. They were lined up, their faces covered in black robes were obscured by the shadows of their hoods, but strands of strange auras kept spreading out from their bodies.

That aura was indescribably powerful, but it was extremely uncomfortable. It was as if he was suddenly naked in the ice and snow. The chill was bone-chilling and lingering.

Almost out of instinct, Ye Hongjian and the others frowned in response to such an uninvited group of guests. The true essence of sword intent in their bodies also started to circulate. Xu Han's situation was already worrying. Even if they risked their lives, they would still be able to increase Xu Han's risk by half.

However, the group of black-clothed people did not seem to sense the killing intent emanating from Ye Hongjian and the others, and their conversation continued.

"The third or fourth path. With the cultivation of the Great Evolution Realm, it's not easy to accomplish this."

"What three or four? At this moment, his internal organs are all damaged. I don't think he will be able to withstand this lightning tribulation."

"Everyone, your words are wrong. Since the people in the sky are afraid of him and have prepared nine lightning tribulations for him, then I think it is naturally meaningful to prepare nine lightning tribulations. This child is extraordinary and cannot be measured by common sense."

The group of people exchanged words with each other, turning a blind eye to Ye Hongjian and the others, to the mighty heavenly tribulation, and to everything that had happened in Heng Imperial City.

They were like a group of spectators sitting below the stage, commenting on a play.

"Who are you?" Ye Hongjian did not like their attitude, much less any possible unfavorable effects on Xu Han caused by their existence.

At that time, the group of black-robed people seemed to have finally noticed the existence of Ye Hongjian and the others. They all turned their heads and looked at where Ye Hongjian and the others were. Following their actions, that strange aura was transmitted to Ye Hongjian and the others even more clearly.

Although she could not see their appearances clearly, Ye Hongjian could clearly feel that they were looking at her. It was also not a good experience. It was like walking on the night road, the sound of footsteps drifting from behind was like the sound of drops of water echoing in the courtyard when one was sleepy, causing one's heart to go cold.

Ye Hongjian even had an illusion at that time, as if the dozens of figures standing in front of her were not real existences, but some dead souls.

The black-robed men did not respond to Ye Hongjian's question. They stood silently for several breaths before reaching out to remove the hoods on their heads.

At this moment, the third lightning tribulation finally descended.

With these words of lightning, everyone finally saw the black-robed man's appearance clearly.

Although most of the faces were extremely unfamiliar to them, there were still a few that they knew…

As a result, cries of alarm rang out from the crowd.

"Headmaster…"

"Meng Liang…"

"Master…"

"Grandfather…"
