At this moment, the originally clear sky suddenly became shrouded in mist, and in an instant, thick dark clouds gathered.
Amidst the rolling dark clouds, flashes of lightning could be faintly seen, and an inexplicable sense of oppression and murderous intent permeated the world.
Countless strange birds took flight in the nearby mountains and forests, and countless ferocious beasts fled in panic. Before this, no one had ever known that so many creatures could be hidden nearby.
The Mermaid Queen found it difficult to breathe and her face paled slightly: "What on earth is going on?"
Mikado Baiqing, who was standing to the side, said in a deep voice, "He is about to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation."
"Transcending the Heavenly Tribulation?" The Mermaid Queen was somewhat surprised.
“Indeed, this is an inevitable stage for mortals who wish to become immortals.” Mikado Baiqing gazed at the figure in the distance, a hint of something inexplicable in his eyes, lost in thought.
"I've heard that the Heavenly Tribulation is a life-or-death struggle. Will Brother Zu be in danger?" After all, the Mermaid Queen lived in a cultivation world thousands of years ago, a world that was extremely powerful and had many legends about Heavenly Tribulations.
“There is indeed some danger, but don’t worry, he should be able to handle it. Let’s leave here first to avoid being affected by the lightning.” As Mikado Baiqing spoke, he grabbed the mermaid queen’s arm and flew away to a distance.
"Can he really handle it?" The mermaid queen was worried and seemed to want to get comfort from Mikado Baiharu beside her.
"Let's take a look first." Mikado Baiharu gazed at the figure in the distance, his face flickering in and out of the light from the lightning.
Of course, she didn't tell the Mermaid Queen the truth. Facing the Heavenly Tribulation was indeed a matter of life and death. Those who faced the tribulation often needed to prepare various elixirs and magical treasures in advance to deal with it. Sometimes, they also needed the protection of their elders or Daoist partners to barely get through it.
But now, Zuan is completely unprepared and suddenly encounters a calamity.
If anyone else were in this situation, they would definitely be doomed.
Of course, given Zaun's strength and his endless stream of ingenious methods, he would have had a high probability of succeeding in his tribulation in that previous fragmented time world.
But now in this Heavenly Court world, the power of tribulation lightning has increased by more than one or two times.
At this moment, Zu'an also noticed something amiss. He felt that the energy in his body had reached a critical point, and he seemed to be out of place with the surrounding space. It was as if too much energy had accumulated in his body and was about to break through the space next to him at any time.
Looking up at the tribulation lightning in the sky, he could clearly feel a strange attraction between himself and the lightning, as if it could fall down at any moment.
"Tribulation..." Zu An had often seen similar scenes in novels before, and had even witnessed Zhao Hao undergoing tribulation in person, so he naturally understood the current situation.
But why does the pressure of this tribulation lightning seem to far exceed that of the tribulation Zhao Hao underwent?
Looking around, the entire sky was filled with calamity clouds, and even the majestic Kunlun Mountains in the distance could not be seen.
Is it because the person undergoing tribulation is too powerful, or because this world is too powerful?
He didn't have much time to think about the problem, because the first lightning bolt had already struck.
A white bolt of lightning descended from the clouds, a bolt thicker than a tree, and appeared directly above Zaun's head in almost no time.
Zuan had been secretly preparing for this, and with a single punch, he shattered the lightning bolt.
He dared not use the Tai'a sword because Mi Li was still inside. Heavenly lightning has a natural restraint on souls, and he worried that if the tribulation lightning injured Mi Li, it would be too late to regret it.
As the lightning dissipated, Zu'an felt pure and refined primordial energy flowing into his body, seemingly the energy contained within the lightning.
A sudden realization dawned on him: facing the tribulation lightning during the heavenly tribulation was indeed dangerous, but danger also meant opportunity.
The process of resisting the tribulation lightning is actually about seizing the special energy within the tribulation lightning to temper the body.
Before this, he had even considered using the Faraday cage again to avoid the heavenly tribulation, but now it seems that although that method was clever, it also meant losing the most important opportunity in the tribulation.
As he was pondering, another wave of tribulation lightning descended, this time with nine thick, bright bolts of lightning striking him simultaneously.
The Mermaid Queen gasped in surprise, for the lightning was so dazzling that it almost instantly engulfed the area where Zaun was.
Mikado Baiharu, however, was much calmer than her, coldly watching the scene in the distance.
A huge, dark crater appeared in that area. The nearby trees had long since turned to ashes, and even the stones on the ground had been turned into lava by the powerful lightning.
But in the very center of the pit, there still stood a tall figure.
Mikado Baiharu suddenly blushed and spat lightly.
I have to admit, this guy has a really good physique...
It turned out that Zuan had just withstood the simultaneous bombardment of nine heavenly lightning bolts, and his clothes had been reduced to charcoal, leaving large areas of his skin exposed to the air.
The Mermaid Queen blushed as well, but she was more worried about another issue: "How many rounds of tribulation does one usually face when undergoing a heavenly tribulation?"
She didn't understand why she asked the demon saintess, as if she subconsciously felt that the other party knew these things.
"That's not necessarily true. Some people only need to go through one round of tribulation lightning to transcend tribulations, while others need to go through nine or even more rounds. Normally, the more rounds of tribulation lightning one experiences, the stronger the tribulation lightning, and the higher the upper limit of one's future cultivation will be. Of course, there are also those who are utterly wicked and cannot be tolerated by heaven and earth, so they will be subjected to more rounds of heavenly lightning to completely destroy them." Mikado Baiqing answered very naturally, as if he already knew about these things.
The Mermaid Queen breathed a slight sigh of relief: "Thank goodness, Brother Zu has accumulated good deeds throughout his life and made great contributions to the world. He certainly won't be condemned by heaven and earth."
