Chapter 905 Windfall!
Both Jiang Chen, as well as the spectating Xingyi in the distance, now looked at the white-colored lightning around Shun Long's hand with incredulous looks on their faces, their expressions very similar to Bai Longtian's, as the same question that he had just asked lingered on their minds.
Even though Xingyi herself wasn't participating in the spar, she could clearly sense even from a distance away the unique aura that Shun Long's lightning was emitting, which greatly resembled the aura of the heavenly tribulation's.
Of course, any Dao King who had already undergone their heavenly tribulation would be able to easily tell right now, that there was an extremely strong resemblance between the white lightning around Shun Long's hand and the heavenly tribulation itself!
Meanwhile, a faint smile slowly formed itself on Shun Long's lips as he lowered his gaze to examine the white-colored lightning crackling around his right hand, as the faint crackling of thunder started to grow even more pronounced with every passing second, almost as if the white lightning was gradually growing stronger alongside it!
A moment later, Shun Long finally turned his gaze towards Bai Longtian and the others before answering with a content smile
''I'm not sure if 'it' already has a name, but if I had to give it one... I would probably call it the 'Dao of Heavenly Tribulation'. I did have to sacrifice quite a bit to get it, but it really was worth it in the end.''
Bai Longtian and the others had already somewhat expected this answer, yet they still couldn't help but feel their minds buzz greatly the moment they took in Shun Long's words and realized the implications behind them! Although they had already guessed that Shun Long's white lightning was somehow connected to the heavenly tribulation he had faced earlier, hearing him actually confirm it was an entirely different matter altogether!
After all, how terrifying was the heavenly tribulation? How many dazzling Nascent Soul stage cultivators had fallen to it throughout the countless years, failing to truly breakthrough to the Dao King realm and becoming nothing more than ashes drifting throughout the endless river of time?
As for people like Shun Long who possessed the bloodline of one of the most terrifying legendary magic beasts in the entire 'Immortal Dimension', it was simply impossible to estimate how much stronger he would get!
Still, despite its benefits, there was a reason why most bloodline cultivators would very rarely, if ever, choose to use this technique to boost their strength.
After all, this technique could only be used once, before a person completely exhausted the blood essence in their heart.
After using this technique, a cultivator's bloodline would immediately go dormant within their body, as if it suddenly entered hibernation, and it was unknown how long it would take to wake up again.
If one was lucky, it could only take a year, but if they were unlucky, it would be impossible to estimate if and when they could use the power of their bloodline again!
Still, although Shun Long felt it was a pity that he would temporarily have to sacrifice the power of his bloodline, since it was one of his strongest trump cards, he wasn't too worried about it in the end!
After all, he knew of a certain way to make sure that the bloodline within his body would wake up sooner rather than later. At the very least, he wasn't the slightest bit afraid that he wouldn't be able to use it again in the future!
Of course, back then, Shun Long had no other choice but to rely on the power of his bloodline to deal with the golden roc, so he didn't really have any other choice. That was how terrifying that final bolt of heavenly tribulation had been. His goal at that moment had simply been to stay alive! He had never expected that in the very end, he would suddenly end up getting insights into the lightning of the heavenly tribulation itself.
In the end, comprehending this 'Dao of the Heavenly Tribulation' was nothing short of an unexpected windfall!
