Normally, when a cultivator broke through to the Tribulation Stage, the first Heaven's Retribution would only descend after ten years.
However, at the same time that everyone got the chicken dinner together, they also attracted the Heavenly Punishment that made cultivators tremble in fear at the mention of it.
What was more frightening was that the Heaven's Retribution was very fierce. One could imagine how terrifying the Heaven's Retribution was.
"I'll take my leave first …"
Sun Wukong looked up and saw the Tribulation Cloud rolling, lightning flashing, and thunder rumbling. The power brewing was like a scene from the end of the world. He swallowed his saliva, put away the Golden Cudgel with the Vermilion Bird's skeleton, and ran away from the cultivators who broke through to the Tribulation Stage.
Feng Hao looked at Sun Wukong, who was running away, and was surprised. He was also thinking about whether he should run away first, in case the Heaven's Retribution sensed him and struck him.
The Heaven's Retribution was the power of heaven and earth. Even with Feng Hao's current cultivation, he couldn't control it. It was a power that belonged to the Lord of the World.
If it was in the Boundless World, Feng Hao could condense or dissipate the Heaven's Retribution with just a thought.
But in this foggy place, Feng Hao wasn't so ridiculously strong.
Therefore, in order to be safe, Feng Hao also moved a few kilometers away, but he could still see everything with his naked eyes.
"… I regret my decision to offer my soul essence."
Nan Realmspirit looked at Feng Hao with resentment.
As the Lord of the World, was this how he should act when facing the Heaven's Retribution? Shouldn't he show off and destroy the Tribulation Cloud with his bare hands?
Why did he choose to run away?
Nan Realmspirit's emotional fluctuations appeared in Feng Hao's mind, and his mood suddenly became bad.
"Can you resist the power of the Heaven's Retribution?" Feng Hao stared at Nan Realmspirit.
Uh!
Nan Realmspirit was stunned. Ever since he became Nan Realmspirit, his cultivation had long surpassed the Tribulation Stage, but he had never experienced being struck by lightning.
But Nan Realmspirit also knew that the power of the Heaven's Retribution ignored cultivation. The stronger the person was, the more terrifying the power of the Heaven's Retribution would be.
"Ha, ha!"
Nan Realmspirit laughed dryly and said softly, "I can't …"
"Hehe …"
Feng Hao chuckled and cast a gaze of contempt at Nan Realmspirit. Those who do what they know they can't do most likely don't live long.
If he hadn't known his place and acted rashly in the Great Thousand Worlds, he wouldn't have been able to grow from a mere disciple of the Feng Clan to the Lord of the Great Thousand Worlds.
He had experienced too much in his life.
Even now … he was still walking further and further on this new path. He didn't even know what the end of this path was.
However, the only thing he could do now was to restore his cultivation base and understand this world well.
Crack!
Another bolt of lightning struck down, a bolt of lightning as thick as a forearm struck down on a Qi Practitioner that was trying to escape, turning him into ashes without leaving a single trace behind.
This scene made the Crossing Calamity Cultivators even more panicked. It felt like there was no way out.
The smart Qi Practitioners sealed their acupoints with a secret technique and suppressed their Tribulation Stage cultivation. As expected, they didn't feel the dazzling heavenly might anymore.
They were overjoyed, but before they could share it with the others, a bolt of lightning struck down from the Nine Heavens Tribulation Clouds without giving them any face.
With a 'puff' sound, the Qi Practitioner was turned into ashes that flew away.
"This is too terrifying. I want to break my own meridians. At least I can live like this …" Some Qi Practitioners had a mental breakdown.
Although their cultivation base had increased, their Dao Hearts were unstable. They broke their own meridians and became living cripples.
When Feng Hao saw this scene, he shook his head slightly. Survival of the fittest wasn't wrong.
The weak didn't deserve sympathy.
As a member of the Origin Returning Sword Sect, they had strong mental fortitude. Not only were they not afraid, but they also split up to resist the lightning.
Sun Wukong came over and stood beside Fenghao. He blinked his Fiery Eyes of Gold and said, "Gusu, this kid should be able to overcome the tribulation successfully …"
"Seems like your impression of him isn't bad. This brat's talent isn't weak. Now that he ate the Vermilion Bird meat, his talent isn't any weaker than those with innate divine bodies. If he succeeds, he has the chance to become the number one sword cultivator in the Southern Region."
Feng Hao was also filled with anticipation for Gusu Ziheng's performance. If Gusu Ziheng didn't die and successfully passed the tribulation, Feng Hao felt that Gusu Ziheng might be able to take on the position of the Southern Region Overlord.
More and more heavenly punishments mercilessly descended. More and more dream-chasing Qi Practitioners were turned into wisps of green smoke. It was as though they had never been to this world before.
At the same time, Gusu Ziheng finally felt a vast amount of heaven and earth energy locking onto him mercilessly. It was like he was being stared at by the sharp eyes of an eagle.
Other than the unbearable pressure, it was more of a psychological burden. No one knew if this lightning tribulation would be able to destroy his soul.
"Young Sect Lord, you can do it …"
The people of the Origin Returning Sword Sect had an expression that was unafraid of death. They were also resisting the lightning tribulation.
Luckily, they weren't instantly turned into ashes. But the feeling of being struck by lightning was something they didn't want to experience again.
However, the first wave of tribulation wasn't over yet. The first wave was merely the appetizer …
At this moment, Gusu Ziheng also withstood the first wave of lightning tribulation. He had an expression of joy on his face. Just when he thought the lightning tribulation was over, an even greater pressure bore down on him from above. Even his breathing became labored.
"Is the game over yet? I just broke through to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm. Why do I have to undergo tribulation now? This isn't fair …"
Kala!
The lightning tribulation wasn't polite at all. It directly turned the cultivators who were complaining into ashes.
Luckily, the strength of the heavenly punishment depended on the cultivator's foundation, as well as various other factors. At this moment, there were some outstanding cultivators who had already successfully withstood the third wave of lightning tribulation. There were no more lightning tribulations after that.
And for those cultivators who didn't die after experiencing the lightning tribulation, their aura and foundation would become even more stable. They would be completely different from those who had just broken through to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.
This was a substantial benefit.
"Very good, there are still people who succeeded in their tribulation."
Feng Hao heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that there were surviving tribulation transcendence cultivators. After that, he waved his hand. Those cultivators who succeeded in their tribulation could sense Feng Hao's powerful will. Although they were shocked, they still obediently 'reported' to Feng Hao.
They had a rough idea in their hearts. Feng Hao had even killed the Vermilion Bird of the Southern Realmspirit and even subdued the Divine Soul of the Southern Realmspirit. The height he stood at now was countless times higher than them.
"Junior pays respect to senior …"
The four cultivators who succeeded in their tribulation clasped their fists and bowed, "Senior, do you have any instructions?"
Feng Hao surveyed the four of them and was extremely satisfied with their talent and courage. He then spoke in a light voice, "I have no instructions. Just watch carefully!"
Feng Hao was still slightly concerned about Gusu Ziheng. This brat's talent was truly very high. Whether or not he could pass the lightning tribulation was the most important …
