Empress: My husband is too strong, I can only lie down and relax.

Chapter 288 Heavenly Thunder Sword, a Tribulation of Life and Death!

"What, what's going on?!"

"This clearly doesn't look like a holy tribulation!"

At this moment, the other two holy kings were greatly surprised.

There are too many Saint Realm experts in the Dao Palace, and they are used to seeing their juniors undergo tribulations and advance to the Saint Realm.

Even when Ji Lingchen and his three companions were undergoing the Saint Tribulation, they only attracted a lightning tribulation that stretched for three hundred miles.

Moreover, its aura was far inferior to the lightning tribulation before them.

The stronger the lightning tribulation, the higher the talent of the person undergoing the tribulation.

Then what about Gu Jiancheng's Saint Tribulation, which is comparable to the Saint King Tribulation?

"Moreover, this is probably even stronger than a typical Saint King Tribulation!"

Shangguan Lin gasped.

Ji Lingchen even prepared for two years to overcome the Saint King Tribulation, and only succeeded with the help of the Saint Refining Pool and ancient restrictions.

But now, what is Gu Jiancheng relying on?

He didn't even have anyone to protect him.

Are we going to rely on those three already injured Holy Kings?

Perhaps, their current combat strength is not even as great as Gu Jiancheng's!

"Everyone else, enter the Langhuan Space!"

At this moment, Yun Shuiyao appeared and brought Yang Jian and the others into the Langhuan Space to heal their injuries.

Gu Jiancheng's tribulation was extraordinary; even the aftershocks would possess the power to annihilate anyone below the Saint King realm.

"The three seniors need not worry. My husband dares to undergo tribulation at this time because he has enough confidence!"

After Yunshuiyao finished speaking, she returned to the Langhuan Space.

At this moment, Gu Jiancheng's clone also shot directly into the sky.

The main body and the clones began forming hand seals together.

In the blink of an eye, ancient restrictions appeared above Gu Jiancheng's head.

"This is... an ancient restriction?"

Upon seeing this, the three Holy Kings, including Shangguan Lin, all gasped in surprise.

No wonder Gu Jiancheng dared to activate the tenth layer of the magic array in the Sacred Pool. It turns out that, like Ji Lingchen of the Ji family, he also has an ancient restriction protecting him.

"Ji Lingchen dared to forcibly undergo the Saint King Tribulation because of the ancient restrictions, but that was still due to the inherent formation of the Saint Pool itself. I wonder how effective the ancient restrictions set up by Gu Jiancheng will be?"

One of the holy kings frowned.

What they didn't know was that Gu Jiancheng's mastery of ancient restrictions probably surpassed that of the entire Ji family.

After all, Gu Jiancheng had comprehended the ancient restriction in front of the Gate of Boundaries. The Fixed Character Secret, one of the six secrets of the ancient gods, was itself derived from the inheritance of the ancient restriction.

Gu Jiancheng had mastered the Secret of Fixed Characters to a profound degree, so ancient restrictions were naturally no problem for him.

This is why Gu Jiancheng dared to be so confident and dared to undergo tribulation here.

Not only that, Gu Jiancheng also summoned all 500,000 silver horned ants, which transformed into a dome above his head, forming the second barrier to face the calamity.

Even at this point, Gu Jiancheng did not stop his actions. He raised his hand for the third time, and the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron soared into the sky, hovering below the ant swarm.

Since Yunshuiyao no longer needed the Saint Pill, Gu Jiancheng cleared all the system's affection points at once to upgrade the quality of the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron.

At this moment, the Dharma Image Cauldron's divine aura was restrained and contained, yet its grade had already reached the astonishing Saint King level!

With these triple protections, even though this tribulation was extraordinary, Gu Jiancheng was confident that he could withstand it all!

Click!

Just as Gu Jiancheng had finished preparing everything, the tribulation lightning above his head finally gathered.

Arcs of lightning, like oars, condensed within the vortex, and in an instant, they transformed into a ten-foot-thick silver lightning dragon that suddenly pounced down from the tribulation clouds!

"S!"

"This is... the manifestation of lightning tribulation!?"

"What's going on? The first lightning tribulation alone has such power?"

"It looks even more terrifying than Ji Lingchen's Saint King Tribulation!"

For a moment, all three Holy Kings gasped.

Such a calamity befalling a sage was something they had never even heard of before!

"Get out of the way!"

However, Shangguan Lin led the two of them and left the ancient ruins directly.

The terror of Gu Jiancheng's tribulation lightning far exceeded his imagination. Given their current injured state, they might not even be able to handle the aftershocks of the tribulation.

boom!

Just as the three retreated below the basin, the lightning dragon formed from the first lightning tribulation finally crashed into the ancient restriction that Gu Jiancheng had set up in advance.

In an instant, countless ancient runes appeared on the restricted dome, shimmering with dazzling light.

This is a simplified version of the Boundary Gate. Faced with the lightning tribulation transforming into a dragon, the rising restriction was not instantly destroyed.

Although cracks continued to appear, the power of lightning was still forcibly dispersed throughout the entire barrier.

Gu Jiancheng naturally wouldn't waste such extremely pure lightning energy. He activated the power of burning heaven and frantically extracted lightning power from the ancient restriction and incorporated it into his body.

Buzz!

And so, after three full breaths of lightning tribulation, the lightning dragon finally dissipated under the sky along with the ancient restriction.

But this first tribulation of lightning actually passed just like that!?

In fact, she had never even met Gu Jiancheng.

This is a bit outrageous.

But at this moment, the second lightning tribulation seemed unwilling to give Gu Jiancheng any chance to breathe, and it condensed again at an extremely fast speed.

This time, however, the silver dragon formed from lightning actually became two!

The terrifying pressure had almost doubled!

"A second lightning tribulation? This is terrifying!"

The three holy kings couldn't help but gasp.

Now, they are absolutely certain that Gu Jiancheng's Saint Tribulation is even more terrifying than Ji Lingchen's Saint King Tribulation three months ago!

Will Gu Jiancheng really be able to successfully overcome the tribulation?

Meanwhile, Gu Jiancheng's clone was already busy setting up new ancient restrictions.

But it was destroyed instantly by the power of the falling lightning after only one layer was set up.

Now, Gu Jiancheng's ancient restrictions are no longer able to truly resist the power of the lightning tribulation.

boom!

At this moment, the two silver lightning dragons had already rushed into the ant swarm.

The ant king and queen, using the power of the horned ants, controlled a colony of 500,000 ants to frantically resist the lightning tribulation.

Although they are not absolutely tough on their own, they can use the power of the group to decompose all the lightning tribulation energy as much as possible.

One in 500,000 of the lightning tribulations, so it's naturally not that terrifying.

In an instant, the ant colony was swallowed up by the thunder dragon, and at the same time, the ants also enveloped the thunder dragon, doing their best to prevent the others from falling.

At this moment, Gu Jiancheng also raised his large hand and continued to frantically devour the lightning that had been split apart by the ant colony.

Even so, after only five breaths, a large number of golden ant colonies fell from the sky.

'Although they will not perish, they will fall into a coma.'

After ten breaths, even the king and queen ants could not hold on any longer.

Seeing this, Gu Jiancheng quickly recalled all the ants.

The fact that the ant colony could withstand the second heavenly tribulation for ten breaths was already beyond Gu Jiancheng's expectations.

During this time, the clone continued to set up ancient restrictions.

Thus, when the second lightning tribulation descended, less than one-third of the energy remained.

The fall into the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron only caused the cauldron to tremble slightly for a moment.

Thus, Gu Jian also withstood the second lightning tribulation.

They still didn't touch Gu Jiancheng at all.

At this moment, Shangguan Lin and the other two looked at each other, at a loss for words.

Gu Jiancheng was all alone, yet he endured two heavenly tribulations in succession.

Even without the help of their family or protectors, it's already a miracle that they've managed to hold on until now.

"This child is indeed terrifyingly strong!"

"As long as he doesn't perish, his achievements will surely surpass those of Ji Lingchen!"

The two holy kings could no longer hide their excitement.

"There's a third one, and it's the most terrifying one!"

But Shangguan Lin's expression was more solemn than ever before.

Now, after two consecutive lightning strikes, the tribulation clouds above have not dissipated.

This means that Gu Jiancheng's tribulation, like Ji Lingchen's, consisted of at least three lightning tribulations.

Moreover, the third one will be even more terrifying!

hum!

At this moment, a buzzing sound suddenly arose within the vortex of tribulation clouds.

Immediately, almost visible to the naked eye, all the lightning arcs converged towards the center, and the power of the lightning continued to grow stronger, eventually even turning golden!

The next moment, a sword tip slowly emerged from the vortex of lightning.

It was covered with ancient totems, seemingly carrying the power of the Heavenly Dao. The golden lightning arcs that formed the lightning sword, even though only a part of it was revealed, caused Shangguan Lin and the others to change their expressions drastically.

"It's one thing for lightning tribulation to take human form, but first it was a lightning dragon, and now it can even transform into a sword!?"

"I have never heard of such a form of tribulation lightning before!"

The two holy kings gasped in astonishment.

"This tribulation lightning is extraordinary; it seems to carry the power of the Heavenly Dao Laws, and is indeed a Heavenly Dao Thunder Sword!"

"Could it be that Gu Jiancheng cultivates some heaven-defying technique, which is why the Heavenly Dao is determined to kill him?"

At this moment, Shangguan Lin couldn't help but say in a deep voice.

This tribulation lightning was no longer meant to temper cultivators; it was intended to kill Gu Jiancheng!

Even a Saint King at the third level would probably be unable to withstand this Heavenly Dao Thunder Sword!

Now, all Shangguan Lin can do is pray that Gu Jiancheng can survive the tribulation.

Just as everyone was marveling, the Heavenly Dao Thunder Sword had fully manifested.

The entire sword was three thousand feet long, and its dazzling golden lightning light illuminated the dark basin as if it were daytime.

The golden arcs of lightning spread and filled the entire basin; even the residual power of the lightning leveled the ancient ruins there.

Beneath the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron, Gu Jiancheng's expression also became extremely solemn.

He knew that his tribulation to become a saint would not be easy to overcome, but he really did not expect that even the Heavenly Dao Thunder Sword would be brought out.

The power of the Heavenly Tribulation combined with the laws of Heaven.

Even the slightest blessing from the laws of Heaven would grant this tribulation invincible power.

Fortunately, he upgraded the Myriad Forms Cauldron in advance; otherwise, he probably wouldn't have had any chance at all!

Thus, when the Heavenly Dao Thunder Sword descended overhead, Gu Jiancheng also pushed the power of the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron to its limit.

The Myriad Manifestations Cauldron instantly expanded, transforming into a colossal structure thousands of feet in size. Its myriad manifestations power seemed poised to engulf everything. In the next instant, it collided heavily with the Heavenly Dao Thunder Sword!

hum!

boom!

In an instant, the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron and the Heavenly Dao Thunder Sword clashed together, creating waves and surging tides.

The aura surged like a tide, instantly engulfing the entire basin.

Even the three holy kings standing outside the basin were forced back by the shockwave.

Keep in mind, they had already used their Saint King aura to resist, but they were still forced back.

This shows just how terrifying the aftershocks of this Heavenly Tribulation were.

But Shangguan Lin couldn't care less about that now. He suppressed the surrounding dust and looked at the center of the basin, only to find that the Heavenly Dao Thunder Sword was constantly suppressing the ancient cauldron.

This magical artifact actually withstood the Heavenly Thunder Sword!?

"This magical artifact, Jian Cheng, is extraordinary!"

"It seems to be a Saint King's artifact!"

Upon seeing this, the two holy kings couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"This is no ordinary Saint King artifact, but Jian Cheng's cultivation is limited, and he may not be able to unleash the true power of this artifact!"

"Relying on external aids might not be enough for him to survive this tribulation!"

But Shangguan Lin shook his head.

As expected, even though the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron was of sufficient quality, it was still constantly suppressed by the Heavenly Dao Thunder Sword, falling like a mountain.

Gu Jiancheng continued to inject energy into the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron, but there was still no sign of stopping.

There is absolutely no way to shatter this third lightning tribulation sword using the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron!

All he could do was use the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron to absorb as much Heavenly Dao Thunder Sword power as possible.

Finally, the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron was about to descend upon them.

Gu Jiancheng directly unleashed the power of the Heavenly Overlord Body and the Rising Dragon Transformation, causing the Nine Heavenly Seals to rise instantly. Carrying Gu Jiancheng's full combat power, they heavily slammed against the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron.

hum!

In an instant, the Myriad Phenomena Cauldron trembled violently.

But after only a breath's pause, the cauldron fell again, and Gu Jiancheng's full-force Heavenly Nine Seals collapsed after only a moment!

At this moment, the Heavenly Thunder Sword has only 50% of its power remaining.

Gu Jiancheng focused his gaze, and with a wave of his hand, the Crimson Sky Sword materialized directly in his grasp.

This time, he really has to give it his all!
