Surrounded by the dark ocean, Hao Ren didn't know where the altar would appear after it rose up.
However, he knew that the location of the Heavenly Tribulation was set by the East Ocean Dragon Palace and kept it a secret. Otherwise, it would be a disaster if enemies came to disturb Zhao Kuo at the critical moment.
In the sky, thunderclouds rolled, and the dark clouds seemed to be pressing down on the ocean. Occasionally, lightning flashed, and the surface of the ocean turned silver.
This kind of momentum, this kind of boundless sea, not even the shadow of land could be seen. If it was a timid mortal, he would probably be scared out of his wits!
A platform rose from the altar where Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu were standing. Today's Heavenly Tribulation Array Formation needed Dragon King Zhao Guang to host it!
For a moment, the wind blew, and the ocean waves were shocking.
Zhao Yanzi was a bit unsteady, and she immediately grabbed Hao Ren's arm. Afraid that she would fall from the edge of the altar into the ocean, Hao Ren held her hand tightly.
Her palm was warm, but her fingertips were a bit cold.
Boom!
A lightning bolt flashed across the sky!
Even though Hao Ren had never experienced something like this before, he knew that the Heavenly Tribulation was coming!
Zhao Yanzi was a bit nervous, and her grip on Hao Ren's hand tightened.
Lightning bolts flashed in the clouds, and the atmosphere on the huge altar where tens of thousands of dragon cultivators gathered was getting more and more intense.
Pa!
The first lightning bolt fell from the clouds!
It was as thick as an arm and as purple as jade!
"Ninth Heaven Eighteen Lightning!" Premier Xia who was standing beside Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi murmured.
"Is it very powerful?" Zhao Yanzi asked him anxiously.
"Very powerful, far more powerful than the Wind Fire Lightning Tribulation we expected," Premier Xia said with a frown.
"Can Third Uncle pass it?" Zhao Yanzi asked immediately.
Premier Xia stared at the center of the altar and didn't answer. It seemed like he didn't hear Zhao Yanzi's question.
The purple lightning struck down from the sky and went straight for Zhao Kuo's head, who was in the middle of the altar!
Zhao Kuo remained in his meditative posture, not moving at all. With a grunt, he used his body to block the first Heavenly Tribulation!
When he reached peak Qian-level, his body was almost indestructible!
The moment the first bolt of lightning struck, the dark clouds in the sky turned into a torrential downpour!
The huge white jade altar produced a light green barrier of light, blocking the rain outside.
"The first one isn't difficult, but it gets harder as you go on." Premier Xia said, "Each lightning bolt is twice as powerful as the previous one. There are 18 Heavenly Lightning Bolts in total!"
Hao Ren calculated and found that each Heavenly Lightning Bolt was twice as powerful as the previous one, which meant that the last Heavenly Lightning Bolt would be 100,000 times more powerful than the first one!
100,000 times! Just thinking about it was terrifying!
Zhao Yanzi's math wasn't as good as Hao Ren's, but she knew that each of the 18 heavenly lightning bolts was more powerful than the previous one. Therefore, she frowned and bit her lips, and her breathing became a bit irregular.
While they were talking, the second Heavenly Lightning Bolt struck down!
It was twice as powerful as the first Heavenly Lightning Bolt! Not only was the lightning energy thicker, but the lightning bolts were also brighter than before!
Zhao Kuo sat still and let the Heavenly Lightning Bolt hit his body from the top of his head. His body glowed for a moment before returning to normal.
"Third Lord is indeed the No.1 Cultivator in the mortal world. Instead of fighting the Heavenly Tribulation head-on, he is absorbing the power of the Heavenly Tribulation to accumulate strength for the next one!" Premier Xia said in a low voice.
Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi clenched their hands and stared at Zhao Kuo who was in the middle of the altar. It was their first time witnessing the Heavenly Tribulation, and this Heavenly Tribulation was so important that they felt like they could rely on each other.
Boom!
The third Heavenly Lightning Bolt arrived!
It lit up half of the sky!
Hao Ren had thought about using his lightning cultivation technique to help Zhao Yanzi's Third Uncle absorb the power of the lightning bolts. Now that he saw the power of the Heavenly Lightning Bolt, he knew that it was impossible!
It wasn't just the Heavenly Lightning Bolt; it was the power of the heavens!
Cultivation was about changing one's fate. It was fine if one only wanted to travel freely in the mortal world. However, if one wanted to challenge the laws of heaven and earth and compete with the sun and moon, one had to go through the tests of the Heavenly Tribulation!
Zhao Kuo continued to sit motionlessly, quietly waiting for the third bolt of lightning to strike his body!
However, this time, his body swayed a little!
Premier Xia's frown deepened. "18 Heavenly Lightning Bolts … It's not easy …" he thought.
Bang!
The fourth Heavenly Lightning Bolt was as thick as a pillar, and it struck down from the clouds in the sky like a deafening thunder!
This time, Zhao Kuo, who had been cultivating with his eyes closed, finally opened his eyes!
The Heavenly Lightning Bolt hit his Baihui Acupoint, passed through his spine, and went straight to the altar on the ground!
The remaining power of the Heavenly Lightning Bolt made the engravings on the altar light up a little!
Zhao Kuo stretched his arms and roared into the sky, "Hahahahaha! Awesome! Again! "
As if the heavens were responding to Zhao Kuo's reaction, the fifth Heavenly Lightning Bolt struck from the sky without giving him any chance to rest!
Zhao Kuo took it head-on with his body!
The lightning bolt struck his body, but it didn't even leave a scratch on his green robe! However, his eyes lit up instantly as if he could see through everything, and he looked into the distance!
Bang!
The ocean in the distance was stirred up waves that were dozens of meters high, and this was only the light emitted by Zhao Kuo's eyes!
"Good! Again!" Zhao Kuo yelled and returned to his arrogant self!
The sixth Heavenly Lightning Bolt was as thick as a house, and it struck from the sky to the ocean!
The powerful lightning power submerged Zhao Kuo's entire person within!
Zhao Yanzi looked at the center of the altar from a distance, and her breathing was a little short. She held Hao Ren's hand, and her fingertips began to sweat.
When the lightning energy dissipated, Zhao Kuo, who was sitting in the center of the altar, was still intact!
No.1 in the mortal world! At this moment, Hao Ren couldn't help but admire him!
If it were the simplest 4-In-9 Heavenly Tribulation, Zhao Kuo would have passed it a long time ago! However, Zhao Kuo's wish was to change the world! Even if he went to the Heavenly Realm, he didn't want to be the last!
The Ninth Heaven Eighteen Lightning, the most powerful Heavenly Tribulation, was the ultimate test for him!
Even a Heaven Immortal would be killed by such a Heavenly Tribulation if he was careless!
Dang! Zhao Kuo picked up the black iron tri-point sword beside him, stood up, and looked up at the sky. "Again! Again!"
The seventh Heavenly Lightning Bolt turned into seven lightning bolts, and they came from seven different directions!
Zhao Kuo waved his Killing Tribulation, and a black light flashed and struck down all seven Heavenly Lightning Bolts!
He was so proud that he would fight the Heavenly Tribulation!
Zhao Yanzi's Third Uncle stood in the wind with his long robe fluttering in the wind, and his tri-point sword flashed in the lightning bolts, making him look like a god descending from the heavens!
The eighth Heavenly Lightning Bolt flashed down from the clouds and turned into thousands of lightning balls, attacking Zhao Kuo from all directions!
Hao Ren calculated silently and found that the power of the eighth Heavenly Lightning Bolt was 128 times that of the first Heavenly Lightning Bolt!
Therefore, each of the lightning balls that looked weak actually had the power of the first Heavenly Lightning Bolt! Zhao Kuo looked relaxed, but it wasn't easy for him!
In the center of the altar, he wielded the black iron tri-point sword that weighed 6,500 pounds, and it looked like an impenetrable light net. The lightning balls hit Zhao Kuo's tri-point sword, and they made muffled noises that deafened Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi.
Even so, Zhao Yanzi didn't cover her ears. Instead, she watched the situation on the altar anxiously.
Tens of thousands of soldiers stood on the edge of the altar, and they wouldn't move without orders. Therefore, the altar that was the size of several football fields became Zhao Kuo's stage!
The ninth Heavenly Lightning Bolt struck down! It split into nine directions and shot toward Hao Ren with the power of wind and fire!
Instead of a few thick ones, they were extremely sharp as if they could pierce through anything!
The hundun lightning bolt could break all five elements! Even though Zhao Kuo was at peak Qian-level and had a black iron weapon, he didn't dare to be careless!
The first move, block! The second move, collapse! The third move, push! The fourth move, lift! The fifth move, charge! The sixth move, point! The seventh move, throw! The eighth move, stir!
Even with the heavy weapon, Zhao Kuo was still agile, and he destroyed the eight lightning bolts that the ninth Heavenly Lightning Bolt had split into!
The last move, Huashan Splitting!
The lightning bolt that was as thick as a river was split into two by Zhao Kuo's tri-point sword!
The tri-point sword was the weapon of the legendary Water God, Gonggong! Zhao Kuo's attacks were really powerful! It took a lot of strength to knock down the Heavenly Lightning Bolt!
Hao Ren was about to cheer when he saw everyone's excitement. In the center of the altar, Zhao Kuo put the tri-point sword aside, covered his chest with his left hand, and spat out a mouthful of blood!
"Third Uncle!" Zhao Yanzi yelled anxiously.
At this moment, lightning bolts flashed in the clouds, and the tenth Heavenly Lightning Bolt struck!
The tenth Heavenly Lightning Bolt had 512 times the power! Hao Ren immediately calculated the corresponding power in his mind!
Including this one, there were nine more Heavenly Lightning Bolts, and it seemed like Zhao Kuo wouldn't be able to make it! Hao Ren clenched his fists, worrying about Zhao Kuo's safety for the first time.
Although Zhao Kuo was fierce and impolite, he wasn't a bad person. On the contrary, he was definitely a straightforward man!
Boom! The tenth Heavenly Lightning Bolt with 512 times the power struck from the sky!
Zhao Kuo picked up the tri-point sword and prepared to fight!
Once the Heavenly Tribulation was triggered, it couldn't be stopped halfway! It was like the path of cultivation. Once you stepped on it, you had to move forward bravely! Even if you had to go through many obstacles, there was no turning back!
Dang! Zhao Kuo's tri-point sword made a huge noise on the ground of the altar.
With blood on the corner of his mouth, he looked up at the sky calmly.
The Heavenly Lightning Bolt that had accumulated to its maximum power struck Zhao Kuo's head with pure white light!
Zhao Kuo waved the tri-point sword and blocked it! There was no way to dodge the Heavenly Tribulation!
Zhao Kuo, who had his head held high and his chest puffed out, was engulfed by the lightning in the blink of an eye!
Zhao Yanzi grabbed Hao Ren, and her fingernails dug into his palms. Her pink lips were bitten by her own teeth, and she left a deep mark on them.
When the lightning bolts disappeared, Zhao Kuo was on one knee in the center of the altar. Beside him were the broken pieces of the tri-point sword. Both of his arms were covered in blood!
In the sky, the eleventh Heavenly Lightning Bolt was ready to strike!
Knowing that Zhao Kuo couldn't make it, Zhao Guang yelled, "Heaven and Earth Array Formation, open!"
His voice was like a huge bell, and his order spread to every corner of the altar.
"Yes!" The tens of thousands of soldiers standing guard around the altar answered in unison. It was a shocking scene!
"Damn the heavens! I'm going to kill you!" At this moment, Zhao Kuo suddenly flew high into the sky with his torn clothes!
Roar … With a long roar, Zhao Kuo turned into a black dragon in the high sky!
