Myth Beyond Heaven

Rumble—

A beam of purple light suddenly flashed among the black clouds, followed by a bright streak of purple lightning. From one streak to three, five, one hundred, and turned into countless lightning converged together to form a humongous lightning domain with the Ancestral Land at the center.

The expressions of the clan elders were solemn. Just looked at the lightning flashing in the sky, their souls were involuntarily shaking. This Heaven Tribulation was obviously different from what they had experienced before.

Mortals cultivating to become divine beings would inevitably meet heaven's wrath. Aside from the nine palaces that possessed special inheritances passed through the generations to aid their descendants into instantaneously ascending to the heavens, be it humans, demons, beasts, or spirits, if one wished to break through to the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm, they would need to submit to the punishments of the heavenly law. At worst, they would meet a violent end.

In the Azure World, there were small numbers of practitioners that could successfully step into the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm throughout thousands of years of history. Most of them were either hiding somewhere or stopped meddling with worldly affairs like Tianqi Zongwei of the Sky Qilin Clan and tried to find an opportunity to ascend to the Divine World.

Huoyun Yurou was an exception. Because the Fire Cloud Rat Clan had been suppressed throughout the years, she had to take the mantle and lead her clan to survive. She simply had no time to relax and find an opportunity to make progress on the profound path.

"Purple-colored one?" Yun Lintian looked at the sky with a hint of surprise. The purple-colored lightning was the pinnacle of all lightning. It was even stronger than the golden-colored one. Yun Lintian's current strength was insufficient to summon it even with the help of the Beyond Heaven King's Crown.

On the side, Linlin's eyes flashed with splendor. Her heart was flushed with excitement every time the lightning flashed. It was as though she had returned to her home grounds.

As the black clouds started expanding lower, so too did the lightning region. And as the lightning region became lower and lower, the might of heaven grew heavier by the moment, pressing heavily on the hearts of everyone.

Rumble—

An earth-shattering crack suddenly echoed from the sky while a bolt of lightning streaked across as if it wished to split the heavens above into halves. A clear purple ray of lightning started condensing within the lightning region and began to emit horrifying sounds.

As the lightning region hung lower and lower, the light of the Heaven Tribulation Lightning that condensed in its midst also grew richer and richer. All of the brilliance and atmosphere were firmly concentrated on Huoyun Yurou's body.

Crackle! Bang!

All of a sudden, rays of lightning exploded as startling thunder roared through the sky. A streak of Heaven Tribulation Lightning ripped the black clouds apart, striking straight toward Huoyun Yurou.

Boom!

The lightning mercilessly struck down on the protective barrier, creating a visible crack in it.

Huoyun Zhu and the other elders glanced at each other with unsightly expressions. Just the first strike had already reduced the protective formation's power by half. Undoubtedly, the formation would be shattered in the next strike at this rate.

"Everyone! Pour everything we have into it. We cannot let the barrier break." Huoyun Zhu shouted. Her aura rose to the maximum, causing gravel and trees around her to shatter into pieces.

Yun Lintian frowned slightly and quickly moved around, injecting the best grade Profound Stones into the formation's eyes. In the next moment, the cracks in the barrier immediately healed, returning to their original appearance.

Huoyun Zhu looked at Yun Lintian with gratitude. Her clan was too poor right now. She could not afford to enhance the formation. Just by activating, it was already the limit.

Crackle! Bang!

Another thunderous explosion suddenly rang out across the sky as two streaks of lightning struck down Huoyun Yurou at the same time.

Boom—

This time several cracks appeared on the barrier like spider webs. Even with the help of the Profound Stones and all the elders could not resist it.

"No!" Huoyun Zhu exclaimed in horror. Her heart was hanging in her throat as she saw three thick Heaven Tribulation Lightning condensed in the sky.

Crackle!

Before anyone could react, three streaks of purple lightning descended, destroying the formation's barrier, and went straight to Huoyun Yurou.

At this moment, Huoyun Yurou's eyes snapped open. Red fire and white mist instantly appeared around her and formed a thick barrier.

Boom—

The three bolts of lightning ruthlessly struck Huoyun Yurou's barrier, and all the fire and white mist dispersed immediately.

"Ugh!" Huoyun Yurou spat out a mouthful of blood, and her expression turned pale. This Heaven Tribulation Lightning was an entirely different level from the previous one. She still had another four rounds to go. How could she survive then?

"Matriarch!" Huoyun Zhu and the other elders shouted in unison. However, they knew that it was impossible for them to intervene.

Seeing this scene, Yun Lintian knew it was time for him to act. After witnessing the power of heavenly laws, Yun Lintian couldn't help shaking a little. Honestly, he wasn't confident at all.

"Leave it to me, Big Brother Yun. You need to prepare for the later rounds." Linlin suddenly jumped out of Yun Lintian's shoulder and transformed into her true form. She looked at the furious sky in excitement.

At this moment, another four Heaven Tribulation Lightning started to condense. It merely took half a breath's time before they suddenly struck down on Huoyun Yurou once again.

Huoyun Yurou looked at the incoming lightning streaks in terror. Her face was pale as a white sheet as he tried her best to conjure a new profound defense.

"Scram!" Linlin roared loudly as she jumped into the Heaven Tribulation Lightnings directly.

Yun Lintian was shocked and was about to execute Shadow Step to take her away. He was interrupted by Hongyue's voice. "She will be fine. Just wait and see."

Yun Lintian halted his movement and stared at Linlin with anxiety. He took a stance, preparing to rescue her at any moment.
