When the lightning that was flickering on River Styx's body dissipated, River Styx was still completely unharmed, and his aura had become even stronger. Everyone was dumbfounded. Could it be that the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning was fake? Three lightning bolts struck down at the same time, but they were actually unable to cause any damage to River Styx. Instead, they caused River Styx's aura to become even stronger. This was truly illogical.
The third round, five bolts of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning. The fourth round, seven bolts of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning … The twenty-third round, forty-five bolts of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning. The twenty-fourth round, forty-seven bolts of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning … Round after round of tribulation lightning struck down, and the number of bolts of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning increased, and the might of the lightning bolts also became stronger and stronger. The barren land below River Styx was only slightly affected, but it still turned into a piece of charred land.
After forty-nine rounds of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning, River Styx was still sitting cross-legged in the air, completely unharmed. On the contrary, the aura around his body was much stronger than before. It was as if he wasn't undergoing tribulation, but rather, he was undergoing a baptism. The more bolts of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning struck down, the stronger River Styx became.
Such a scene obviously made everyone who was waiting to watch a good show exclaim in surprise. Although Heaven's Punishment was powerful, River Styx seemed to be even more powerful. This scene was far too different from what they had imagined. Could it be that River Styx would be able to pass through Heaven's Punishment unscathed? Could it be that Heaven's Punishment was always so disappointing?
Heaven's Punishment in the sky seemed to have sensed everyone's thoughts. The tribulation clouds rolled, and the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning disappeared. What replaced it was countless bolts of gray lightning. The countless bolts of gray lightning formed a new sea of lightning. Although it was far smaller than the sea of lightning formed by the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning, its might was far from what the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning could compare to.
Everyone was stupefied. What kind of lightning is this? It looked ordinary, but its power made everyone tremble in fear. They felt as if they could feel the end of their lives from these gray thunderbolts. They felt an endless aura of destruction drifting between heaven and earth. All living things in the world could feel it. They either avoided it or ran away.
Many people did not know the origin of this gray thunderbolt, but the Saints and some ancient mighty figures who had heard about it in the Purple Cloud Palace knew about it. During the preaching, Hongjun Daozu once said that the Purple Cloud Heavenly Thunder was the head of all thunderbolts in the Great Desolation. Above the Purple Cloud Heavenly Thunder, there was also the Chaotic Heavenly Thunder. The Du Tian Thunderbolt used by the real body of Pangu, summoned by the Twelve Zu Wu, was a type of Chaotic Heavenly Thunder.
The gray thunderbolt in Heaven's Punishment at this time was also a type of Chaotic Heavenly Thunder. It was called the Destructive Heavenly Thunder. As the name suggested, it was a Heavenly Thunder that could destroy everything. No wonder the world was filled with the aura of destruction when this thunder appeared. Seeing the changes in the tribulation clouds of Heaven's Punishment, everyone gasped. Of course, there were some who were gloating.
Under the tribulation clouds, River Styx saw the changes in the tribulation clouds. For the first time, his face became serious. This Destructive Heavenly Thunder was different from the Purple Cloud Heavenly Thunder. River Styx had to pay attention to it. River Styx felt a deep sense of danger from it. His blood and Qi surged around him. Obviously, he was making the final preparations to face the Purple Cloud Heavenly Thunder.
Above the Celestial Court, Haotian and Yaochi stood on the golden bridge of Yaochi Fairyland. They looked at River Styx passing the tribulation with a serious face. Yaochi said with a worried face, "Haotian, what do you think is the probability of River Styx passing the tribulation successfully this time?"
Haotian said with a serious face, "If it's just Heaven's Punishment, I'm afraid River Styx will have a very high probability of passing the tribulation successfully. However, I'm afraid those Sages will not sit by and do nothing. In this way, the probability of River Styx passing the tribulation is basically zero."
Hearing this, Yaochi suddenly became worried. She turned to Haotian and said, "What about the marriage between Yaoji and Liu Er? If River Styx dies, I'm afraid the lineage of Blood Sea will be hard to protect. Those Sages will not leave any threat alive. Liu Er will bear the brunt of it. If Yaoji marries him, she will not be able to escape death. "
Haotian naturally knew this. He said with a more serious face, "I know. If River Styx really can't escape this tribulation, I will stop the wedding even if I will be laughed at by the whole world. Even if Yaoji hates me, I will not hesitate. Look, someone is about to take action." Yaoji looked in the direction of the voice. Someone appeared outside Heaven's Punishment.
Outside Heaven's Punishment, a figure suddenly appeared. Everyone looked over. After seeing who it was, they could not help but observe a moment of silence for River Styx. Although River Styx had great strength in the Great Desolation, he did not have a good relationship with any of the Sages. Even Houtu had fallen out with River Styx. The person who came this time was Sage Zhunti, one of the Seven Sages of the Great Desolation.
Obviously, Sage Zhunti did not just come here to watch. If he wanted to watch, he could have just sat in Holy Mountain in the West. There was no need for him to come here. Looking at the smile on Zhunti's face, it was obvious that Zhunti was up to no good. Since Zhunti came here, how could he be as good as River Styx?
Zhunti looked at River Styx who was under Heaven's Punishment and said with a smile, "Daoist Friend River Styx, this time when Heaven's Punishment descended, why didn't you invite us to watch the ceremony? You are so stingy. Poor Way came uninvited. Please forgive me, Daoist Friend. The destructive power of the Thunder of Destruction is extraordinary. You have to be careful. If you feel weak, just say the word and the Poor Way will definitely help you."
Seeing how Zhunti spoke in such a dignified manner, everyone could not help but admire Zhunti. It seemed like a generous speech, but in fact, there was a hidden evil intention. Everyone knew that the Thunder of Destruction could only be withstood by the person. If others interfered, it would only increase the power of the Thunder of Destruction. As a Sage, how could Zhunti not know this?
People with discerning eyes understood what Zhunti meant. He meant, "River Styx, you have to be careful. What you have to face is not only the Thunder of Destruction, but also him outside the Thunder of Destruction. If River Styx showed signs of weakness, he was ready to attack River Styx. Even if he did not attack, with Zhunti standing there, he would distract River Styx's attention. He was really sinister."
On the Sacred Island of the Blood Sea, Liu Er, Kong Xuan and Black Tortoise looked anxious. Obviously, they were worried about River Styx. Especially after Zhunti appeared, they became more flustered. Liu Er shouted, "Damn it! Zhunti is a Sage. How dare he try to interfere with our teacher's Thunder of Destruction at this time? If I could get out, I would have fought with him for 300 rounds."
Kong Xuan also looked worried, but compared to Liu Er, he was much calmer. "Senior brother, the Blood Sea has been closed by our teacher. We can't go out. Besides, our teacher is worried that we will go out and block the Sages for him, so he closed the Blood Sea. Even if we go out, it will be of no help, and we will only distract our teacher. What's more, our teacher's Self Separation has not shown up yet. It should not be a problem for him to block Zhunti."
Having said that, Kong Xuan was not confident. After all, if Zhunti came, would Summon be far away? What's more, other than the Two Sages of the West, there might be other Sages. However, the three of them had no other choice. They could only hope that River Styx had other arrangements. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Under the Divine Punishment, River Styx just stared at the Divine Thunder of Destruction in the tribulation clouds. Other things could not distract him at all. Even though Zhunti stood outside the Divine Punishment, staring at him covetously and saying some malicious words, River Styx turned a deaf ear to him. He completely ignored the existence of Zhunti and Zhunti. In his eyes, there was only the Divine Thunder of Destruction in the sky.
"Boom …" There was a loud noise in the tribulation clouds. A Divine Thunder of Destruction broke free from the sea of thunder and turned into a Chaotic Thunder Beast. It pounced straight at River Styx. Its power was astonishing, and it had already begun to understand the mystery of Primordial Chaos. If one had to describe it, it was equivalent to a casual attack from a newly ascended Primordial Chaos expert. Even so, it should not be underestimated.
What's more, this was the Divine Thunder of Destruction. Its power was secondary. The Profound Meaning of Destruction mixed in the Divine Thunder of Destruction was the most terrifying. Although the Divine Thunder of Destruction was a tribulation thunder, it already contained the power of the Dharma. If struck by it, an ordinary Early-stage Primordial Chaos expert would be seriously injured, if not killed.
When the Divine Thunder of Destruction fell, River Styx still sat cross-legged. Blood qi surrounded him like a silkworm cocoon, protecting River Styx completely. Moreover, this blood qi was constantly growing. Finally, it was like a blood shield in front of him, blocking the Divine Thunder of Destruction.
However, the power of the Divine Thunder of Destruction was obviously not something this blood qi could block. It only resisted for a few breaths before it was destroyed by the Divine Thunder of Destruction. However, River Styx was indifferent. He watched as the Divine Thunder of Destruction struck his body without any resistance.
This time, River Styx obviously could not face the Divine Thunder of Purple Cloud like he did before. As soon as the Divine Thunder of Destruction entered his body, River Styx's whole body suddenly became charred black. Blood mist burst out from his body. His expression became extremely distorted as if he had suffered a great injury. However, his whole body was charred black, and no one could see his distorted face clearly.
