It was clearly daytime, but the outside world was dark.
Xiao Chen walked out of the Blue Dragon Palace. This place was far from the Profound Domain battlefield. However, it should not be the Tianwu Domain, as Xiao Chen had never been here before.
Xiao Chen looked at the sky. Demonic clouds covered the sky, making it dark.
Relying on his sharp senses, Xiao Chen looked in the direction of Kunlun Mountain. Sound could no longer transmit the battle there.
Xiao Chen only vaguely sensed some auras, which still made his heart tremble. A battle that would decide the life and death of the Kunlun Realm was taking place there.
If no miracle happened, the Kunlun Realm's defeat was only a matter of time.
The Demonic God was practically immortal. Even after half of its body was destroyed, it could still recover perfectly. The ordinary cultivators of Kunlun Mountain also faced the Demon Race cultivators who had overdrawn on their lifeforce. A peak battlefield versus an ordinary battlefield.
No matter which side won, they would immediately feed back to their allies, quickly ending this bitter battle.
Since Xiao Chen arrived in this world, he had never experienced such a miserable scene. Even the bloodshed that he experienced on the Emperor's Road could not compare to a thousandth of this battle.
Friends who were alive and well in one moment might die in the next. The scene of life and death was playing out at every moment.
It was destined that there would be no winner in this battle. The Demons were just pitiful bugs that the Dark Church kidnapped. From the moment they offered their souls to the Demonic God, they were destined not to betray him.
The Thunder King's transformation into something that was neither human nor ghost was clearly not what he wanted. After ten thousand years of scheming, in the end, he was still the loser.
Pitiful, lamentable, and even more hateful.
Far away from the battlefield, Xiao Chen's anxious heart calmed down for a rare moment. In that instant, he thought of many things.
The death of the Cyclic Astral Lord was a great shock to Xiao Chen. The man who once used the Oath Stone to threaten him was dead.
The person died, and the person who made the oath died. Naturally, the restrictions were no longer there.
However, Xiao Chen did not feel relaxed at all. As he looked at Kunlun Mountain in the distance, many scenes flashed in Xiao Chen's mind.
Many people had placed their lives on the line to bet on him.
This time, he could only succeed; failure was not allowed.
With a light tap of his feet, Xiao Chen soared into the sky and scanned the surroundings, searching for a suitable location.
A moment later, he landed on a mountain and sat down cross-legged.
It was not easy for the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation to break through to the ninth layer. That was already the limit of strength allowed by the Heavenly Dao of this world.
After the seventh layer, every breakthrough brought Xiao Chen an experience that was engraved in his bones.
When he recalled it, other than the pain, there was only one word that came to mind.
"Sky Dome Immortal Lord, don't laugh at me if I die from the Cultivation Technique you created."
Before starting, Xiao Chen teased himself to relax.
Then, the smile on his face disappeared and was replaced by a serious expression. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
Just like eating and drinking, the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation circulated naturally in his body. He had practiced this Cultivation Technique day and night.
He was already extremely familiar with it. Even when he was unconscious, his body would automatically move. He was simply too familiar with it.
Xiao Chen drove his Veritable Essence Energy and circulated it in his meridians. The lightning-attributed Spiritual Energy in the surroundings quickly gathered in Xiao Chen's body.
After one great cycle, Xiao Chen's surroundings started flickering with crackling electric light.
Logically speaking, he should have stopped at this point. That was already sufficient.
However, it was clearly not possible to break through now. Xiao Chen calmed himself and opened up new meridians. With every increase in the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation's layer, more meridians would flow.
The so-called breakthrough was opening up new meridians, lengthening the time it took to complete a great cycle.
When cultivating, one would absorb more energy, and their speed would be faster.
This was originally a rather difficult process. However, Xiao Chen had two years of accumulations, so it was not difficult.
What was rare was that after opening the various meridians required for the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation's tenth layer, a lightning tribulation would descend.
Only by truly enduring it could one be considered to have broken through to the ninth layer. Otherwise, it would all be for naught. The more dangerous part was using the lightning tribulation to activate the scarlet dragon seal.
Time ticked by. When Xiao Chen opened the final meridian, tribulation clouds appeared above his head.
"Boom!"
A bolt of purple lightning tore through the sky and landed on Xiao Chen's body.
"It's starting."
Xiao Chen opened his eyes and silently endured the lightning tribulation. Following that, bolts of lightning descended continuously.
As the lightning ravaged his physical body, Xiao Chen guided the lightning tribulation's energy to charge at the scarlet dragon seal in his dantian.
The scarlet dragon seal was half the size of a palm, but it was like a vast and boundless sea. The lightning tribulation's energy was like a drop of dew. When it charged over, it did not cause any waves.
Xiao Chen was not in a rush. Based on his experience, the lightning tribulation would slowly grow stronger.
This matter could not be rushed. Using the lightning tribulation's energy was an extremely risky thing to do. In the past, Xiao Chen did his best to block the lightning tribulation's energy from his physical body. This time, he did his best to absorb it into his body.
If he was not careful, the lightning tribulation's energy might go out of control and explode in his body. Without any surprises, Xiao Chen would be blasted into smithereens on the spot, not even leaving a scrap behind.
"Boom!"
After about seven minutes, a Divine Dragon palace materialized by lightning descended. A huge pressure immediately crushed the mountain Xiao Chen sat on.
"Rumble …" Before the lightning arrived, the mountain crumbled.
Xiao Chen tensed up. As the lightning descended, countless sparks flew on the surface of his body. His body, which was already numb from the pain, felt like it would fall apart.
With a strong will, Xiao Chen endured and guided the lightning tribulation's energy to circulate in his meridians.
"Rumble …!" The lightning tribulation's energy was like an unbridled wild horse, quickly galloping around. Xiao Chen found it extremely taxing to control it.
"Bang!"
This time, the scarlet dragon seal, which had not reacted all this time, finally shook for a moment.
It only shook for a moment, not even for a second. If Xiao Chen had not been watching closely, he would have thought that he saw wrong.
However, Xiao Chen did not notice that the instant the scarlet dragon seal shook, countless scarlet molecules separated from the dragon seal and merged into his blood vessels, healing and recovering his physical body. It separated from the Dragon Mark and melted into his blood vessels, healing and recovering his physical body.
Xiao Chen laughed loudly and reared his head back, shouting, "Darn heavens! Again!"
Ten thousand bolts of lightning flashed and gathered together, turning into a ferocious venomous lightning snake that bit at Xiao Chen.
Before the first wave passed, another wave came. Xiao Chen was like a small boat in the waves, drifting about in this berserk lightning tribulation.
Ten thousand bolts of lightning flashed and gathered, turning into a ferocious venomous lightning snake that bit at Xiao Chen.
The scarlet dragon seal shook for an increasingly longer period of time. All the signs indicated that the scarlet dragon seal could truly be touched.
All of a sudden, the storm of thunder and lightning stopped.
The entire place turned quiet. Is the lightning tribulation over? No, it is brewing an even more ferocious lightning tribulation, the final lightning tribulation.
Suddenly, a sword tip emerged from the clouds. The sound of ten thousand horses galloping resounded in the clouds.
"The lightning tribulation turned into a ferocious weapon!"
This startled Xiao Chen. This was his first time seeing tribulation lightning materialize into a weapon. It made him feel like he had committed a sin and was placed on the execution platform by the Heavenly Dao.
Oh no! Even if I can endure this lightning tribulation, I cannot draw it into my body.
Sharpness. Other than the berserk power, the lightning tribulation this time also had a sharp edge to it.
"Whoosh!"
The lightning ferocious weapon arrived in an instant, so fast that Xiao Chen could not react in time.
The sword blade pierced through Xiao Chen's head without a drop of blood.
I'm fine?
However, in the next second, Xiao Chen's expression changed drastically. This lightning tribulation was targeting his physical body. It completely ignored his defenses, wanting to explode in his body.
The lightning ferocious weapon that entered Xiao Chen's body shrank as it descended.
When the electric light shone out, Xiao Chen's entire body turned transparent. His internal organs, flesh, and bones were all clearly visible.
This was gathering the power of lightning, continuously compressing the tribulation lightning's energy. At the end of the compression, Xiao Chen would explode, instantly vaporizing.
In reality, this time, it was not the right time to make this breakthrough.
If not for the scarlet dragon seal slowly strengthening Xiao Chen's bloodline in secret, Xiao Chen's physical body would not have been able to last until now.
With Xiao Chen's physical body, he would not be able to last until now. The Purple Thunder Divine Incantation only had twelve layers. The danger of the final three layers far surpassed his expectations.
Xiao Chen watched helplessly as that lightning ferocious weapon slowly compressed and condensed in his body.
The lightning ferocious weapon turned into a small dot. Its light was already as resplendent and dazzling as the sun. However, there was no earthshaking explosion.
Without a sound, the last bolt of tribulation lightning exploded just like that.
Before Xiao Chen could think, his flesh, flesh, and bones vaporized on the spot.
Only a coiled Blue Dragon image remained, surrounding the scarlet dragon seal.
"Whoosh!"
It seemed like something in the scarlet dragon seal woke up. The Blue Dragon image opened its eyes.
That was a pair of cold scarlet eyes, lonely and proud. It looked like it was outside the world, looking down on everything under the heavens.
"Interesting. To think that this barren land managed to find a successor who matches my temper. The secrets on you are extraordinary. You shall be the one! "
