Chapter 583 - 190: True Monarch Wangchuan!
Sensing the thunder tribulation, everyone in the Celestial Talisman Sect came out to witness.
"This... is this a thunder tribulation?" A Qi Refining Disciple sensed the oppression from the sky and couldn’t help but exclaim.
Although the suppression of the thunder tribulation was targeted solely at Zhou Xun,
the feeling that the entire sky was about to collapse was nothing short of terrifying!
"More than that, this is a Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation!" An elderly man with graying hair looked at the sky and said with a complicated expression.
This indicated that someone was attempting to reach the Nascent Soul Realm,
which was a Nascent Soul, blessed with a thousand years of longevity, akin to a Land Immortal, watching as the winds rise and the seas change!
To an old cultivator like him nearing the end of his life, it was his lifelong aspiration.
Though he didn’t hope to reach such a realm in this lifetime, even reaching Core Formation was a luxury, but to witness the birth of a True Monarch Nascent Soul with his own eyes,
was truly a life without regrets!
Soon, this commotion also drew Cao Feiyu, Li Daniu, Wenn Yue, and others out to witness,
"It’s a thunder tribulation!"
"It seems Daoist Brother Zhou has already passed the Mana Barrier, with only the thunder tribulation and the final Heart Demon Tribulation left!" Cao Feiyu appeared full of envy.
The Celestial Talisman Sect was an ancient sect that had once flourished, and naturally documented the formation of the Nascent Soul, so he understood the process of Nascent Soul formation!
"With Brother Zhou’s abilities, overcoming the remaining two tribulations should be a breeze, seems like I’ll have one more True Monarch elder brother!" Li Daniu chuckled.
...
Zhou Xun looked at the tribulation clouds in the sky, but he was full of confidence!
The thunder tribulation to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage was undoubtedly formidable, with 80% of cultivators falling before the tribulation.
However, the cultivation technique Zhou Xun practiced was thunder attribute, and he had also practiced the Divine Thunder Body Tempering Technique, giving him certain resistance to thunder tribulations,
not to mention magical treasures, he was confident he could withstand the earlier ones with just his physical body!
Moreover, his lifebound magical treasure was the Thunder Pool,
this treasure could absorb all kinds of thunder element power to strengthen itself, naturally making it the nemesis of various divine thunders,
the tribulation thunder, though destructive, also belonged to the divine thunder category, thus also within the absorption scope of the Thunder Pool,
for ordinary people, this thunder tribulation was a tribulation to break past the Nascent Soul, but for Zhou Xun, it was instead an opportunity.
Originally, he had controlled the Thunder Pool to absorb a trace of tribulation thunder’s power,
which allowed Zhou Xun to stand out among Core Formation Cultivators,
now if he could absorb all of the tribulation thunder’s power,
who knows to what level the power of his Thunder Pool would be elevated.
He stepped out with a stride, and in a flash, appeared sitting cross-legged above his cave mansion, quietly awaiting the arrival of the thunder tribulation.
At that moment, the sky was densely packed with tribulation clouds, lightning continuously flashing, and an immense sense of oppression rushed towards Zhou Xun.
"Finally, it’s coming!"
Zhou Xun laughed faintly, not fearing the overwhelming tribulation clouds in the slightest, looking extremely calm, as if admiring flowers in a courtyard,
then his mouth slightly opened, and a square Thunder Pool, entirely blue and purple with flashing lightning, appeared in front of him!
Go!
Zhou Xun made a hand seal and pointed towards the Thunder Pool,
with a flash of light, the Thunder Pool instantly expanded to over a dozen feet in size, floating above Zhou Xun’s head.
Simultaneously, the tribulation clouds in the sky seemed to sense Zhou Xun’s nonchalance, lightning flashing as if enraging,
just at that moment!
"Boom——"
A flash of lightning, a mighty thunder roar echoed.
A purple thunderbolt descended with a thunderous crash, about as thick as a barrel, incredibly fast, arriving in the blink of an eye!
This thunder directly locked onto Zhou Xun’s position, and Zhou Xun had a feeling that even if he tried to escape using the Thunderbolt Wings, this thunder would follow.
It wouldn’t let him escape!
"But why should I escape?"
His eyes slightly narrowed, then soon relaxed.
"Thunder Pool!"
Zhou Xun softly called out, his mind prompted, the Thunder Pool abruptly rose high, directly meeting it!
The barrel-thick lightning struck directly onto the Thunder Pool,
but an astonishing scene occurred, the Thunder Pool, like a big mouth, devoured the tribulation thunder at once, with no noise thereafter,
only the rumbling sounds from within the Thunder Pool could be heard!
It was as if some intense struggle was happening internally!
The tribulation thunder possessed spirit and, unwilling to be confined within a human magical treasure, struggled desperately,
Zhou Xun had painstakingly absorbed this thunder into the pool, how could he let it have its way freely, sitting calmly in the void, continuously making hand seals, directing them towards the Thunder Pool,
the Thunder Pool then emitted radiant lights, continuously refining it,
soon, the Thunder Pool restored tranquility.
"Indeed, just as I anticipated, the Thunder Pool truly can devour and refine tribulation thunder,"
"But this is only one bolt, I don’t know how many it can devour!"
As for completely devouring all nine bolts of the thunder tribulation, Zhou Xun did not hold such extravagant hope!
Soon, it seemed Zhou Xun’s action of devouring the tribulation thunder angered the heavens,
only to hear a loud rumble, the entire sky turned even darker, lightning concentrated more tightly than before, releasing an aura of utter destruction,
almost as if to strike down and kill the one who insulted the thunder tribulation below!
"Boom!"
The second bolt of tribulation thunder crashed down, its power several times greater than the first,
but Zhou Xun easily handled it, repeating his tactic, using the Thunder Pool to devour it!
And then the third bolt, the fourth bolt...
...
On Celestial Talisman Island, cultivators watched in amazement as Zhou Xun rode the Thunder Pool, showing expressions of shock.
Ordinary cultivators faced thunder tribulations with avoidance, fearing being turned to dust by a single misstep, unlike Zhou Xun who went against the heavens!
"Daoist Brother is truly extraordinary, to be able to turn the thunder tribulation to his own use, perhaps only those recorded in the Ancient Classics possessed such boldness!"
