Chapter 388: No Breakthrough For You (Part 3)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
[Ding! Congratulations! Successfully used the Unlucky Card!]
Wang Mang heaved a sigh of relief.
Wang Mang guessed that this Xiang Yu might not have done anything after he used the first Unlucky Card, which was why nothing big had happened.
However, things were different now!
Xiang Yu had started the breakthrough process, and would not be able to stop it.
There was no way that this fellow would be fine this time!
Thinking this, Wang Mang began to observe the situation. He was unable to do anything at this point, as the lightning tribulation had already begun.
Tribulation lightning meant for someone breaking through to the land immortal level was not something he could deal with at his current level.
At the same time, Xiang Yu, who was transcending his tribulation, suddenly sensed something, and his originally confident face suddenly revealed a look of fear.
The strange feeling from yesterday had appeared again.
The moment this feeling appeared, a sense of unease washed over him, and he was terrified that it would affect his tribulation.
If he failed to transcend the tribulation, he simply did not dare to imagine the consequences.
However, there was no going back now. Bolts of tribulation lightning had already begun to descend continuously.
When the terrifying lightning bolts struck him, Xiang Yu became even more frightened. This was because the tribulation lightning was too powerful! When it struck his body, it seemed like his body would be blown to pieces. Intense pain wracked his body.
Of course, Xiang Yu was no ordinary person. Even if the tribulation lightning had become more terrifying, he still gritted his teeth and endured it.
This was because if he failed to transcend the tribulation, it was very likely that he would die!
Therefore, he absolutely would not allow himself to fail!
However, at this moment, a terrifying vision manifested itself in Xiang Yu’s mind again…
The scene of him dying during the tribulation reappeared!
This lingering shadow was like a film that kept replaying in his mind. At the same time, there seemed to be all kinds of evil voices whispering in his ears.
“Obediently accept your fate! It’s impossible for you to break through to the land immortal level.”
“You are destined to die here. Don’t struggle in vain.”
“Hurry up and die! Why struggle so hard against the inevitable?”
“You will die! You will definitely die! You’ve already seen your ending!”
These nightmarish voices, along with the constantly replaying scene of him dying, tormented his mind.
Xiang Yu’s expression was like that of a madman. His eyes were bloodshot as he soared into the sky and roared angrily, “1 won’t die! 1, Xiang Yu, will never die!”
Xiang Yu roared in rage. His hair was disheveled, and under the lightning tribulation, he looked even crazier.
However, the killing intent in his eyes was especially obvious. He shouted angrily, “Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a halberd emerged from his body, which he grasped tightly.
Then, as if he had gone mad, Xiang Yu rushed into the sky with the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd.
As the bolts of lightning struck him, Xiang Yu kept stabbing the black clouds in the sky like a madman.
It was as if Xiang Yu was competing with the heavens.
Wang Mang was completely stunned by this scene.
F*ck!
This was crazy!
This guy was really fighting the lightning tribulation!
However, this did not mean that he could escape the fate of being struck by lightning.
Furthermore, more and more lightning energy gathered within the dark clouds, as if they had been provoked by Xiang Yu.
Thanks to the Unlucky Card, Xiang Yu’s luck value was temporarily reduced to o!
The heavens naturally sensed this. Similar to back then, when Wang Mang killed Liu Xiu, the heavens seemed to be conscious, and struck with a vengeance!
Xiang Yu was in such a state now.
At the same time, Lu Bu and Han Xin, who were guarding Xiang Yu during his tribulation, could not help but look worried when they saw the crazed Xiang Yu.
They were a posse, so if Xiang Yu failed to transcend the tribulation, it would be a heavy blow to them.
What was even more unbelievable was that Xiang Yu seemed to have fallen into a state of cultivation deviation!
This should not have happened, as Xiang Yu’s cultivation foundation was the sturdiest within their group of three. In fact, it could be said that within the Netherworld, Xiang Yu’s cultivation foundation was the strongest among the half-step land immortal-level experts too!
Therefore, seeing him in this sorry state frightened them. If even Xiang Yu could not transcend the tribulation, then they had no hope of doing so either!
Of course, they did not know that under normal circumstances, the lightning tribulation would definitely not be this intense.
All of this was due to the two-fold cause of the Unlucky Card, as well as Xiang Yu angering the heavens with his actions.
When Wang Mang saw Xiang Yu’s foolish behavior of cursing at the heavens, he gloated inwardly.
Xiang Yu had successfully provoked the heavens!
“Xiang Yu, oh Xiang Yu! Now you know how dangerous it is to offend me, right?”
“The only outcome of those who go against me is death!”
