Die!
It was a battle of life and death. Lin Xun fought alone in the kingdom of lightning with bolts of lightning incessantly exploding, dancing and flying past him.
Every inch of his flesh and blood was restoring and healing at incredible speed. His strength returned to its peak state and soared even more!
Clang!
The Broken Blade flew out of its sheath, emitting a clear cry and water imago power, and displayed Star Gather and Moon Catch of the Heavenly Yuan Blade Art to its fullest.
Stars streaked down from the air wherever Broken Blade passed, crushing the raging lightning. Each one was filled with the terrifying aura of destruction.
Immediately, a bright divine moon rose into the sky, radiating sacred brilliance. All lightning bolts were completely obliterated before they neared.
Compared to the past, Star Gather and Moon Catch were distinctly different in terms of power. After being brought to its fullest and marked with the dao ripple of water, its power also underwent earth-shaking changes.
Attacks of that level could easily slaughter Heaven Ascension cultivators!
Through the course of the battle, Lin Xun’s understanding of the two arts greatly deepened, especially after the tempering and cleansing of the tribulation lightning.
The power exerted from his every movement could be called earth-shattering!
“Burning Sun!” Lin Xun roared.
The Broken Blade slashed through the air, erupting with dazzling and brilliant light.
A scorching sun appeared, seemingly emerging from below the blade, and it burned fiercely while releasing the power that could wipe out the world!
It was Burning Sun—the third move of the Heavenly Yuan Blade Art!
Lin Xun had previously attempted to comprehend the mystery and profound meaning of Burning Sun, but found it too complicated. Although he had grasped a little knowledge, he couldn’t display it.
However, under the fatal threat of lightning tribulation, Lin Xun unleashed his unprecedented potential and performed the move for the first time!
Suddenly, the scorching sun exploded, incinerating all nearby lightning tribulations!
The unbelievable power shocked even Lin Xun.
It’s so strong! It’s stronger than both Star Gather and Moon Catch! Its overbearing aura of destruction looks capable of burning all objects in the world!
Rumble!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut the lightning tribulation soon reappeared like it had been angered! Its power and might were several times more terrifying, and it brought out thousands of ancient tablets, each one flashing like lightning. The aura alone was enough to make people break down.
Die!
Lin Xun howled, blood and qi vaporizing from his body. He had survived to this stage, so how could he stop now?
He fought bravely, and whenever he sustained serious injuries, he consumed the fruit of the Treasure Lantern King Ginseng. He had never thought to give up.
This was destined to be a life-and-death battle. It was not only difficult, but full of deadly dangers. Other cultivators, including top geniuses, likely wouldn’t be able to withstand as far as Lin Xun did.
In truth, if Lin Xun didn’t have the Treasure Lantern King Ginseng to recover his strength, he also wouldn’t have been able to survive. The lightning tribulation was too bizarre and abnormal. It wanted to eliminate him completely!
Boom!
After an unknown amount of time, ancient tablets no longer appeared within the kingdom of lightning. Instead, they all started to blur before taking the shape and form of lightning again.
Kacha!
Meanwhile, Lin Xun felt a shackle had been broken in his body. His cultivation base instantly soared to a whole new level.
Breakthrough!
In the sea of qi was a chaos cave being formed. It was chaotic like a cave dwelling of the great chaos void. It was mysterious like the embryonic form of the world. It was vast and boundless and overflowing with pure aeth power!
All the powers that Lin Xun had grasped were gathered in the chaos cave—water imago power, martial arts and cultivation origin.
The chaos cave was incessantly roaring and producing brilliant light filled with the aura of the great dao.
Imprinted with martial arts and cultivation techniques, it was constantly expanding and shining brightly!
Faintly, there seemed to be some sacred chanting echoing inside the cave as if ancient sages were meditating inside.
Rumble!
In the end, a mysterious Dao platform emerged within the cave, shining luminously like glass.
Heaven Ascension Dao Platform!
A Dao platform built from the foundation of an extremely talented cultivator. It was the embodiment of the ultimate elevation of one’s cultivation!
It should be mentioned that the average Heaven Ascension cultivator could only condense their cultivation into a dao platform when they reached the perfect Heaven Ascension Stage, so as to strengthen and temper their foundation.
However, Lin Xun was very different. He had successfully formed a dao platform in the initial Heaven Ascension Stage. He was destined to walk a transcendental path!
Yu Xiaosheng and Lin Lang had been selected as Saint and Saintess respectively because they surpassed their peers when they broke through to the Heaven Ascension Stage and built a dao platform of their cultivation. It represented their transcendent foundation and potential.
However, Lin Xun was different from them.
His Heaven Ascension Dao Platform gave birth to three rays of sacred and pure white light.
Heaven Ascension Sacred Light!
Even in ancient times, very few people had been able to achieve this step, because it represented that one’s foundation had already been tempered to the pinnacle level. It was the highest achievement in the cultivation stage!
The Dao produced one; one produced two; two produced three; three produced all things!
The Heaven Ascension Dao Platform represented a cultivator’s cultivation. The origin cultivation corresponded to ‘one’ and the three rays of Heaven Ascension Sacred Light corresponded to the wonder of ‘three’ producing all things!
It was the embodiment of the strongest path!
The experience greatly enlightened Lin Xun.
The chaos cave called Heaven Ascension Cave was imprinted with his cultivation, knowledge, foundation, imago power, martial arts, techniques and origin power.
All those powers built the Heaven Ascension Dao Platform, which was the embodiment of his cultivation. The stronger the platform, the greater the power a cultivator could mobilize.
Heaven Ascension Sacred Light symbolized that he had reached the extreme pinnacle of the path he had taken. It represented one of the strongest paths in the world!
“This is the elevation after reaching the ultimate stage of perfection. As soon as I set foot in the Heaven Ascension Stage, I already possessed a Dao foundation that others can’t match. I wouldn’t have achieved this if I hadn’t suppressed the breakthrough till now…” Lin Xun said thoughtfully.
He had become a great cultivator of the Heaven Ascension Stage. His blood and qi were pulsing around his body like molten lava, and his bones were booming and crackling, constantly reorganizing and transforming.
It was the change after the breakthrough. It was as though he had smashed down an obstacle of life and undergone a transformation. His solid foundation and potential had all been turned into the driving force for transformation.
Instantaneously, the injuries he had suffered earlier were completely healed. A divine glow shrouded his body, and the Dao Rpple lingered around him. A ray of blood and qi shot out from the top of his head like a beacon, piercing through the layers of clouds and heading straight for the great sea of lightning tribulation!
The scene was too unbelievable. His severely damaged body had been completely transformed, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes. His flesh and skin had become crystal clear and almost translucent like polished white jade. Every part of his body was glowing and flowing with terrifying life force and power.
His spirit had also grown ever stronger. Stars were orbiting in the mind-sea under the illumination of the divine moon.
That was the Heaven Ascension Stage!
Now that Lin Xun had established himself in this stage, he could pry into the mysteries and wonders of the Great Dao and absorb the essence between heaven and earth.
Although he was only at the initial Heaven Ascension Stage, he felt invincible. At that moment, he was as luminous as jade. His clothes were stained with blood, but he had a superior and invincible air around him!
He had suppressed his breakthrough several times in the past. But now that he had finally overcome the tribulation and stepped into the Heaven Ascension Stage, his cultivation base had erupted like a suppressed volcano.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis ultimate foundation after the extreme elevation would no doubt shock the world!
Boom!
However, to his surprise, the silent lightning tribulation exploded once again.
The sky crumbled, and the ground quaked. The power was more terrifying than before!
A chain of tribulation lightning flashed out of the clouds, flowing with the aura of supreme order and law.
Lin Xun froze. Before he could react, the chain of lightning lashed his body and tore open his skin!
Even so, he was severely wounded, and his newly formed Heaven Ascension cave was almost destroyed!
Pu!
His figure plunged miserably from the sky. How would he have expected such a terrifying blow to strike him after he passed the lightning tribulation?
If he hadn’t broken through to the Heaven Ascension Stage and gained unparalleled powers compared to the past, that blow would have obliterated him from the world!
So painful!
He felt too helpless and furious. His body was badly mutilated from the terrifying power of destruction, but there was nothing he could do except watch himself fall.
Fortunately, after the blow, the lightning tribulation seemed to have exhausted all its power. It dimmed and blurred and began to recede.
……
Half an hour had passed since Lin Xun was swept into the depths of the tribulation clouds.
During that period, the cultivators were very restless and horrified. Thunder incessantly rumbled in the depths of the clouds, and lightning constantly erupted with mighty powers. It made them realize that Lin Xun was most likely still resisting. But if any of them was in the tribulation clouds instead, they would have died already.
The human boy still isn’t dead! He’s too terrifying! It simply defies the heavens!
At that moment, Lin Xun’s figure staggered and fell like a sandbag in the depths of the tribulation clouds.
He was mangled beyond recognition, and his skin was scorched!
He coughed up blood.
Everyone realized that he was still alive and broke out in an uproar.
He’s not dead!
That guy didn’t die and is coming out alive from the tribulation clouds!
The miracle astonished all the cultivators. They couldn’t imagine how Lin Xun could fight against such a terrifyingly powerful lightning tribulation and still survive!
