Chapter 32 - Despise the Heavenly Thunder, Overcome the Tribulation Strongly!

Chapter 32: Despise the Heavenly Thunder, Overcome the Tribulation Strongly!Murong Qianxue gazed in disbelief at the thunderous calamity clouds, feeling as though she were in a dream despite her strong resolve.

“Heavenly Tribulation, how can this be…”

The Primordial Spirit avatar of the Supreme Elder showed some fluctuations, evidently affected by the Heavenly Tribulation. He formed a protective barrier with a wave of his hand to shield himself and then spoke slowly, “It is rumored that certain extraordinary geniuses with unique constitutions, whose incredible talents provoke envy from the heavens, will face various trials on their path of cultivation…”

Murong Qianxue, somewhat incredulous, looked at him and asked, “Are you suggesting that my junior brother might possess such a constitution?”

The Supreme Elder suppressed his astonishment and nodded, “It seems likely. If he can successfully overcome this thunderous tribulation, he will likely experience a remarkable transformation.”

Murong Qianxue turned her gaze towards Gu Liuyun in the distance. For some reason, images from the illusion crossed her mind. She tightened her grip on the Azure Serenity sword, her eyes reflecting concern.

Meanwhile, Gu Liuyun had halted his sword manipulation, realizing he needed to stop to prevent involving his senior sister and the Supreme Elder. Heavenly Tribulation was best faced alone. The presence of others could amplify its power and increase the number of lightning strikes. However, he was forced to stop as the calamity clouds had locked onto him. To continue fleeing would mean immediate descent of the tribulation lightning.

Gu Liuyun took a deep breath and adjusted his state to its best, ready to confront the Heavenly Tribulation. The calamity clouds grew thicker, and the lightning strikes became more frequent.

A thunderclap erupted without warning, and a tribulation lightning bolt struck Gu Liuyun. He shouted, channeling his spiritual energy, and his Crimson Heart Sword transformed into a gust of wind, rushing to meet the incoming lightning.

The clash caused the tribulation lightning to dissipate, and the Crimson Heart Sword was flung into the distance. Gu Liuyun was momentarily stunned; blocking the attack had been surprisingly easy. The power of this tribulation lightning appeared weaker than expected. Before he could ponder this further, the next tribulation lightning arrived.

Gu Liuyun noticed that the Crimson Heart Sword was still at a distance. The next tribulation lightning struck him forcefully, causing him to cough up blood.

“Junior brother!” Murong Qianxue, witnessing Gu Liuyun’s condition, felt her heart tighten and instinctively moved to rush to his side.

“Don’t worry, that young man is fine. It seems the tribulation lightning here isn’t as formidable as those of the Heavenly Tribulation Realm,” the Supreme Elder reassured, shaking his head as he pointed to the calamity clouds.

Murong Qianxue, having practiced Taoism for less than thirty years, had never witnessed the true power of a real catastrophe. However, she knew she had to trust the Supreme Elder’s words and do her best not to interfere with her junior.

On the other side, Gu Liuyun wiped away the blood from his mouth. Although in intense pain, he looked up to the sky and laughed.

“Hahahaha, is this the Heavenly Tribulation of the Body Training Realm?”

“The power is far worse!”

“Come again!”

Indeed, Gu Liuyun had already noticed the differences in this tribulation. While his previous life’s cultivation had never reached the Heavenly Tribulation Realm, he had witnessed several occasions of strong individuals facing their tribulations. Some accomplished sect leaders invited spectators to showcase their strength during these tribulations.

Gu Liuyun’s previous sect, which focused on physical cultivation, was particularly fond of such displays. The Elder cultivators in that sect had fiery personalities and were eager to demonstrate their power to the world. During each tribulation, they would invite numerous onlookers.

Gu Liuyun had thus seen many tribulations and was well aware of the true power of a genuine Heavenly Tribulation. However, he noticed that the thunder tribulation in his current body-forging state was significantly weaker. While the power of this thunder tribulation was not to be underestimated by most practitioners at this level, Gu Liuyun’s unique attributes and the skills of his two main combat professions and his minor profession gave him a considerable advantage. Coupled with the Crimson Heart Sword’s enhancement, his resilience was more than double that of a cultivator at the same level.

When the first tribulation lightning struck him earlier, it caused 500 points of damage, which he easily shrugged off.

The calamity clouds in the sky seemed provoked by his arrogance, and a bolt of lightning fiercely descended. However, Gu Liuyun, unyielding, beckoned his Crimson Heart Sword from afar and once again unleashed the Tai Pan Gale Sword. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ N0ᴠᴇFɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Though the Crimson Heart Sword was shattered again, the tribulation lightning still did not harm Gu Liuyun in the least. Seemingly influenced by emotion, the calamity clouds accelerated the descent speed of their lightning bolts.

“”

Five consecutive tribulation lightning strikes rained down without pause, and the world was filled with the light and sound of thunder.

Gu Liuyun, unfazed, grabbed the Crimson Heart Sword and relentlessly struck back, pounding each thunderbolt as if emulating the previous generation’s elder. After dispersing the five tribulation bolts, he breathed heavily. However, he did not let his guard down because lightning was typically the most fearsome in the last tribulation.

His health was less than 500 points, insufficient to withstand the final strike, but he remained composed. He had a surplus of spiritual power, and five sword shadows had gathered behind him. He was confident in facing the last challenge. The robbery clouds in the sky continued to churn as if signaling the calm before the storm.

“”

Finally, after a prolonged buildup, the last and exceedingly powerful terminating thunder struck down.

“The Heaven-Scorching Sword of Tai Pan!”

Gu Liuyun yelled as the sword shadows behind him shot into the sky, transforming into five enormous golden spirit swords, ruthlessly colliding with the thunder of the end!
