Chapter 52 - Passing the Tribulation (2)

Who could guarantee that the Zheng would be able to withstand the lightning tribulation? In this Mainland, there were countless spirit beast that died from being unable to endure the lightning tribulation, and if the little Zheng was unable to withstand the power of the lightning tribulation, then it would be him. Even if Little Zheng was not at his strongest, he would not be able to watch the little Zheng die from being struck alive.

The little Zheng suddenly jumped down from Xia Xuan's body and roared at the sky as if he was declaring war against the heavenly tribulation. With regards to the Zheng's actions, the thunder tribulation seemed to be very angry.

"Quick, run." Xia Xuan had yet to react to the meaning behind Deicide's words, the entire Imperial Palace was enveloped in a blinding light, causing him to be unable to see anything clearly.

After a short moment, a "boom" sound rang, and the light disappeared. Xia Xuan had already flown out dozens of meters, as his entire body lay on the ground, pain spread across his entire body, while the little Zheng was enveloped by a light pillar.

The Lightning slowly dissipated, and the little Zheng was already lying on the ground. Tiny electric snakes would occasionally scurry out from its body, and it was hard to imagine how such a small and exquisite Zheng was able to withstand that tribulation of lightning.

"Wake up, this is only the first lightning tribulation. There are still more to come." Deicide's voice immediately startled Xia Xuan. If the first wave of tribulation lightning was so strong, then what would happen next?

Xia Xuan anxiously crawled up from the ground, looking at the thunder snake rolling black clouds in the sky, a sense of nervousness and fear rarely appeared in Xia Xuan's heart.

Another pillar of Lightning light came slashing down. Even though there was nothing to be seen in the strong light, Xia Chen heard a roar, and used his Zheng like body to make a behemoth sound. Hearing the roar that should not have been made by the little Zheng, Xia Xuan's heart ached. If the one undergoing the tribulation was him, Xia Cha would probably feel pain in his heart.

After an unknown period of time, as if he was already used to the strong light, the nervousness in Xia Xuan's heart increased. At this time, Deicide's voice sounded: "Quickly, go save him."

Hearing Deicide's voice, Xia Xuan immediately unleashed his terrifying spiritual energy, and rushed into the midst of his tribulations in a flash. In the darkness of the world, the little Zheng was struggling to resist the power of the Lightning, but its small and thin body was already trembling nonstop, as though it was unable to hold on any longer. Just at this moment, a figure hugged it, and the endless Lightning cut into the figure, tearing apart Xia Xuan's skin and flesh.

The glass-coloured binocular looked at the figure, only to see Xia Xuan clenching his teeth and perspiration trickling down his face. When the sweat fell into the little Zheng's eyes, it was unknown whether it was tears or sweat.

"Little Zheng, don't be afraid. Take this." Xia Xuan forced out a smile, and passed a blood colored bead to the little Zheng.

The little Zheng looked at Xia Xuan, tears streaming down its face, and then bit down on the blood bead.

"Don't cry, I will protect you." Xia Xuan wiped the tears off the little Zheng with a slight smile, then fainted while the little Zheng was staring at the binocular.

Seeing Xia Xuan unconscious, the little Zheng immediately swallowed the pearl and the blood colored spiritual energy immediately gushed out from his body. The little Zheng let out a loud roar and the lightning pillar was actually immediately scattered by it.

After lifting Xia Xuan to the side, the little Zheng flew into the air again and roared at the sky, the huge roar actually dispersed the dark clouds, revealing the tumbling thunder snake inside. Another pillar of light descended, enveloping Imperial Palace within it once again.

After an unknown amount of time, he could vaguely hear the sound of thunder rumbling. A blinding light entered from the gaps between his eyes, pulling Xia Xuan's consciousness back into the darkness.

Without moving his eyelids, Xia Xuan slowly opened his binocular, but the glaring light immediately caused Xia Xuan to close his eyes.

"Don't lie down now that you're awake. Your son is undergoing his tribulation." An old voice suddenly sounded, causing Xia Xuan to jump in fright. Although Xia Xuan had just awakened, there shouldn't be anyone that wouldn't know about him. The owner of this old voice should at least be a set of seventh rank Xuan Lord, right?

Squinting his eyes, he looked to the side and saw a white-haired, shrivelled up Old Man looking at him. Although Old Man was old, the binocular was not turbid.

"Beiquan Empire, I never thought that I would be able to invite you out." Xia Xuan said as he looked at Old Man.

"It's too noisy. Young people are full of energy." Old Man stared at Lei Zhu, speaking like he was a wise man.
