"bring it on!"
Xiao Chen stood up. At this moment, he also felt the terrifying lightning tribulation in the sky. Every cultivator who breaks through to the Golden Core stage needs to undergo lightning tribulation to temper the Golden Core grade in order to completely stabilize at the Golden Core stage.
However, after the Golden Core stage, the tribulation lightning will only be triggered when breaking through a major realm, except for the Tribulation Transcending stage.
"However, the spiritual energy has long since dissipated, yet a lightning tribulation still arises? That's strange."
Xiao Chen shook his head helplessly, after all, this was not something he should be thinking about. Soon, Xiao Chen broke through the formation and flew towards the sky.
A cultivator at the Golden Core stage can already rely on their own cultivation to move at a terrifying speed. If Xiao Chen wanted to go to Fengli Kingdom, it would probably only take him a few minutes.
"bring it on!"
Looking at the raging lightning in the sky, Xiao Chen said with a firm gaze. A bright red aura emanated from Xiao Chen's body, making it look from a distance as if Xiao Chen was covered in blood.
But in reality, this is the sign that the Ironclad Technique has been mastered. During his seclusion, Xiao Chen casually mastered the Ironclad Technique, so even if a missile hit Xiao Chen, it wouldn't cause much damage.
However, Xiao Chen did not want to master it. What he wanted was to use the power of the lightning tribulation to cultivate the Iron Armor Technique. Once he mastered the Iron Armor Technique, he could withstand the attack of a nuclear bomb. Only then could Xiao Chen be considered invincible.
As the first lightning bolt struck, Xiao Chen began to fully activate the Iron Armor Technique, causing the color of his body to become even more vibrant.
boom!
The lightning struck Xiao Chen directly, but it did not kill him immediately.
"Suck it!"
Xiao Chen roared, and dense lightning power coursed across his body, seemingly destroying his physical form while simultaneously aiding his cultivation.
Xiao Chen's physical body was also on the verge of destruction and rebirth. The destruction came from the lightning tribulation, while the rebirth was rooted in the cultivation within Xiao Chen's body.
The first bolt of lightning did not kill Xiao Chen. Soon, the second lightning tribulation struck again, and Xiao Chen chose to withstand it as well. At this moment, Xiao Chen could sense that he had reached his limit.
"Damn it, I have no limits!"
Xiao Chen roared, and at that moment, a faint golden light burst forth from Xiao Chen's heart, quickly spreading throughout his entire body. The lightning tribulation that had previously brought Xiao Chen to the brink of ecstasy was now kept at bay by that golden light.
"The Ironclad Technique is now complete!"
Xiao Chen said excitedly, "This means that I will no longer be afraid of nuclear weapons and will truly have the power to protect myself on Earth."
Rumble.
A continuous stream of lightning bolts fell from the clouds, but Xiao Chen remained completely unafraid.
"It's time to end this."
Xiao Chen calmly looked at the lightning tribulation, but his hand grasped a Xuan-rank peak longsword he had summoned, the Xuanjia Sword!
"Draw your sword and strike!"
Xiao Chen said calmly, then swung his Xuanjia Sword. The terrifying sword energy directly cut away the world-destroying lightning tribulation. That's right, it cut away.
Even the clouds that had been there before were cut away by Xiao Chen. After seeing the vast starry sky outside, Xiao Chen couldn't help but shake his head. The sun had not returned.
"Oh, how terrifying!"
Huang Ziren stood in the leader's seat, looking at the scene in the distance with a solemn expression on his face. If it were him, he would definitely not be able to do this, or rather, he would not even be able to match one percent of his strength.
"Find this person and bring him under our control. Even if we can't win him over, we absolutely cannot make enemies; we must be on good terms with him."
Huang Ziren turned to his subordinates and gave the order. As the leader of a country, even though the governors of various provinces had betrayed him, his foundation was still very solid.
"Yes, leader!"
Upon seeing this, the other ability users immediately went down and headed towards the direction of the lightning tribulation.
Lin Yichen, Qin Bajiao, and An Fengyuan naturally followed after seeing Xiao Chen appear. In an instant, all the major forces in the Dragon Kingdom rushed towards Guangshi.
As for foreign forces, under the deterrence of the Dragon Kingdom, they naturally dared not go there, but they also carried a trace of curiosity.
"The cultivation level of the Golden Core stage is terrifying."
Xiao Chen landed lightly on the ground, the surrounding area already reduced to ruins due to his tribulation.
As for the snow demons from before, they had long been struck dead by the lightning tribulation. All the beings within the lightning tribulation would be considered as being along with those undergoing the tribulation.
This is why some powerful cultivators always seek out desolate places when undergoing tribulation, firstly for safety, and secondly to avoid harming innocent people.
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Chen collected all the crystal cores within a five-kilometer radius. Although he couldn't use them himself, he could still bestow them upon any destined person (his harem) for cultivation. Recruiting a subordinate for himself wouldn't be a bad thing.
Since Xiao Chen is so cautious, he would definitely leave restrictions on the other party to prevent them from betraying him. People like Lin Fan have long been restricted by Xiao Chen. If they develop any rebellious intentions towards him, the restrictions can kill them.
"Someone's coming."
Xiao Chen sensed something and looked into the distance. After breaking through to the Golden Core stage, Xiao Chen's divine sense had been terrifyingly enhanced. He could only detect things within a one-kilometer radius before, but with the help of the Star Tempering Divine Technique, things within a two-and-a-half-kilometer radius were now completely visible to him.
As Xiao Chen's thoughts settled, several winged superhumans slowly descended from the sky, their brows furrowing upon seeing him.
Even though the tribulation lightning had dissipated, a faint trace of lightning still lingered in the area. If an ordinary person were here, they would surely die. However, Xiao Chen appeared to be unaffected, which clearly indicated that he was the one undergoing the tribulation.
Thinking of this, a superhuman stepped forward and politely asked, "Are you the one who underwent tribulation earlier?"
"Yes, it's me. What can I do for you?"
Xiao Chen wasn't a ruthless killer, he said calmly.
"Let me introduce myself first. I am Wan Dejiang, a subordinate of Governor Mo Shangyang of Guangdong Province. I have been ordered to come here to invite you."
Wan Dejiang was interrupted by Xiao Chen before he could finish speaking.
"I'm sorry, I won't join any faction. Please leave."
Xiao Chen refused without hesitation. "Are you kidding me? I'm already invincible, and you want me to join your ranks? Are you out of your mind?"
"Sir, are you really not going to reconsider? Our Guangdong province is quite powerful!"
Wan Dejiang said with a gloomy face. Obviously, Mo Shangyang had given him a strict order to invite Xiao Chen to their base!
"You'd better leave before I get angry, or I won't care about Mo Shangyang."
