Chapter 1172

Longhu's breakthrough was very important, so all the teleportation portals to the Saint Region were closed. The old bull could only pull the carriage into the Saint Region.

While he was at the periphery, Zi Chen had already sensed an oppressive aura in this area.

As he moved forward, Zi Chen saw some Earth Prime cultivators loitering around.

…

Two hundred miles to the east of the Wuji Sect, there was a huge formation platform. Lu Peng had spent hundreds of years building this platform. It was specially designed for peak Human Prime cultivators to undergo their tribulations.

This platform was called the Tribulation Platform.

After the Tribulation Platform was built, at least a hundred humans and beasts had successfully undergone their tribulations there.

After a thousand years, Earth Prime cultivators of the Wuji Sect popped up one after another. There were now more than four hundred of them.

To the Everlasting Sect, this was a golden age. In just a thousand years, they had produced over four hundred Earth Origin experts. But to the Martial Heaven Continent, this was a golden age. In just a thousand years, the Earth Origin experts of the various large powers had also appeared.

Around the Tribulation Platform, Lu Peng had set up a total of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine formations. This was a chain formation that was closely connected. Once it was activated, it would have a strong defense.

At this moment, there were a hundred Earth Prime cultivators guarding the Tribulation Platform. There were more than a hundred Earth Prime cultivators hiding in the dark.

Lu Peng was personally in charge of the formation. Zhang Haotian, who had comprehended the Law of Killing, had hidden himself in advance. Wang Qiong led people to command one side, while Elder Gui guarded another.

The barbaric dragon and flying tiger guarded one side.

The devil ape and Su Mengyao guarded the other side.

In addition to the four sides, there were also powerful Earth Prime cultivators guarding the other eight sides.

This formation was much more spectacular than the last time when Su Mengyao was undergoing her tribulation. However, no one was confident.

The phenomenon caused by Longhu's tribulation had attracted many Earth Prime cultivators. Moreover, those major forces had already arrived.

Although Su Mengyao had made a prediction in advance and said that this tribulation would be more frightening than dangerous, it was just a prediction. It didn't mean that there would be no danger.

On the Tribulation Platform, Longhu had already released his aura, but the tribulation didn't appear.

Suddenly, the sky darkened and black clouds began to surge.

Wang Qiong glanced at the sky and transmitted his voice, "Longhu is about to undergo his Tribulation. Send out the order to kill anyone who tries to come within three hundred li of this place."

As soon as Wang Qiong finished speaking, all the Earth Prime experts in the Wuji Sect moved out. At this moment, there was no Earth Prime expert left in the Wuji Sect.

The Everlasting Sect's Earth Origin Beasts began to clear the area. Anything that they could sense was chased away. Those who didn't cooperate were immediately killed.

It seemed that they were too afraid of the Wuji Sect. These Earth Prime cultivators said that they were here to watch Longhu's tribulation. Their attitude was very good. They immediately retreated and watched from hundreds of miles away.

In less than fifteen minutes, the Boundless Sect's Earth Prime had completely cleared the area.

Suddenly, one of the burly men saw an ox cart coming, and he couldn't help but frown. He rushed forward and shouted at the same time, "This is a restricted area, no one is allowed to enter, violators will be killed without discussion."

Old Ox glared at him with his pair of ox eyes.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and leave."

Another burly man came forward and shouted. He flipped his hand, and a long sword appeared in his hand. The sword emitted a terrifying aura. It was actually an Earth Weapon.

Old Ox spat fire from his nose and said angrily, "Earth Weapon, do you think I don't have one?"

As he spoke, Old Ox was about to transform and pull off his horns to fight with the other party.

A soft cough stopped Old Ox. The curtain was slowly pulled open, and a young man walked out of the carriage.

The moment they saw the young man's appearance, the two Earth Prime cultivators' expressions changed drastically. They were both in disbelief.

"You … you are …" The two stared at Zi Chen in front of them in shock.

"What's the situation now?" Zi Chen glanced at the two and asked indifferently.

"It's the sect master, it's really the sect master."

The two of them were clearly very agitated. However, very quickly, vigilance appeared on their faces. One of them turned to Zi Chen and coldly said: "You look very much like my sect leader, but we need proof."

His words were forceful, and his attitude was firm.

Zi Chen laughed at himself, "I haven't returned for a thousand years. I didn't expect that I would need to verify my identity after returning."

The two looked apologetic, but their faces were firm.

Zi Chen pointed at the burly man with the Earth Weapon and said, "Your true form should be a Herculean Tiger Ape, and your master should be Longhu, right?"

The burly man was surprised and immediately asked, "How did you know?"

"If Longhu didn't appear in time, you probably wouldn't have the chance to break through to the Earth Prime level," Zi Chen said indifferently.

The burly man's expression changed, and then he cupped his fists and bowed to Zi Chen, "Hu Li greets the sect master."

That year, Zi Chen and the Spirit Devouring Rats entered a small world and encountered a Herculean Tiger Ape. Just as Zi Chen was about to kill it, Longhu appeared and made it recognize him as its master. It was then that Zi Chen's army of beasts started to grow.

The other man saw this and immediately bowed, his expression respectful and excited.

"Sect Master, did you come back because you knew that Master broke through?" the burly man asked excitedly.

Zi Chen was the backbone of the Wuji Sect. Even if he was only at the peak of the Human Prime level, everyone still felt a sense of security when they saw him.

Zi Chen nodded and asked, "What's the situation now?"

"Master is still on the Tribulation Stage. Lord Wang Qiong asked us to clear the stage. It should be that Master is about to undergo his tribulation. Everyone has made arrangements and is now waiting for Master to break through. Oh right, Sect Master, you're back. Should we inform Lord Wang Qiong?" the burly man said.

Zi Chen waved his hand and said, "Since you've arranged everything, there's no need. I'll just wait and see. You can go."

"Yes." The two Earth Prime cultivators left.

Zi Chen stood at the edge of the carriage and looked into the sky. His eyes suddenly turned gold and silver.

The princess's voice suddenly came from the carriage. "This time, they're determined to deal with the Wuji Sect. They're using all kinds of methods."

The two-colored light in Zi Chen's eyes disappeared. A trace of gloominess appeared on his calm face. He snorted and returned to the carriage.

"Let's go."

As soon as Zi Chen finished speaking, the old bull continued forward. However, the space around the old bull began to distort. Then, the old bull and the carriage disappeared from everyone's sight.

After clearing the stage, two days passed. Longhu's tribulation finally arrived.

Black clouds instantly blocked the sky. It was so dark that one couldn't even see their own fingers in front of them.

The moment the sky turned dark, ripples appeared in the void in all directions. It was as if something was moving in the void.

Suddenly, the pitch-black world suddenly brightened up. Silver light streaked across the sky, and countless lightning bolts rolled in the pitch-black clouds like lightning dragons.

"Rumble."

Thunderous explosions sounded in the sky. This was the sign that Longhu was about to undergo his tribulation.

On the Tribulation Stage, Longhu looked up at the sky. The power of the laws around him gathered towards him.

This was a law that no one had ever seen before. It belonged to Longhu Supreme and was a special law of heaven and earth.

At this moment, the special law was attached to him.

Everyone in the Wuji Sect was on guard the moment the thunder sounded.

The thousand-year agreement allowed the Wuji Sect to usher in a thousand years of peace. However, the first battle after a thousand years was very likely to happen today. Once it happened, it would be the most terrifying battle since the Wuji Sect was established.

"Be careful. Be alert." Wang Qiong calmly commanded.

There were many strange things in the world. He didn't expect to clear the stage in two days to drive everyone away.

The black clouds pressed down, and the pressure was suffocating. Fortunately, they weren't the target of the tribulation.

"Boom!"

The pitch-black world lit up again. Then, there was a thunderous boom. A bolt of divine lightning broke through the clouds and struck toward the dragon and tiger below.

The first bolt of divine lightning fell. It contained a mysterious power of laws. It was Longhu's first tribulation, the divine lightning of laws.

Longhu threw his head back and roared. He leaped into the air, opened his mouth, and swallowed the bolt of lightning in one gulp.

Hundreds of miles away, many Earth Prime cultivators stared at Longhu. The first bolt of divine lightning contained the power of laws. It was far beyond their expectations.

"Boom." "Boom."

As soon as Longhu swallowed the tribulation lightning, two more claps of thunder came from the sky. Then, two more bolts of divine lightning appeared and fell.

Longhu was bathed in lightning. His golden Qi was drowned by the silver lightning.

After the three bolts of divine lightning, Longhu was unscathed. The people in the distance were extremely shocked.

At this moment, most of the Earth Prime cultivators were attracted by Longhu. They didn't notice that there were some other waves in the surging power of laws.

"Boom." "Boom."

The fourth and fifth bolt of divine lightning fell. Then, two more bolts fell together, causing the people in the distance to exclaim.

Longhu was still in the sky, motionless. He allowed the divine lightning to fall on him and ravage his body. At the same time, he was also absorbing the lightning to refine his strong body.

There were nine bolts of divine lightning. Now, five had fallen. There were four left.

Longhu's tribulation speed was unexpectedly fast. This made the people hiding in the dark change their expressions. They had no choice but to act in advance. This made the ripples in the void more obvious.

Some Earth Prime cultivators already sensed it. They released their spiritual senses to investigate, but unfortunately, they didn't find anything. They thought it was an illusion.

The dark sky was illuminated by the silver light on Longhu's body.

The lightning tribulation in the sky fell again, but this time, it wasn't two bolts. Instead, it was three.

The three bolts of lightning were like three thunder dragons. They intertwined with each other and released a powerful destructive force. They rushed toward Longhu below.

Longhu still didn't activate the formation. He blocked it with his body.

This time, the three bolts of lightning fell and knocked Longhu back. Blood splattered in the air. Longhu was injured.

Of the nine bolts of divine lightning, Longhu easily passed through eight. There was only one left.

The first eight bolts weren't strong at all. It was obvious that the last one would accumulate a lot of power.

The ninth bolt of divine lightning didn't fall. This confirmed the people's guess.

Just as the sky lit up and the ninth bolt of divine lightning was about to fall, the people hiding in the dark knew it was time to act.
