Chapter 238

"Boom!"

A bolt of heavenly lightning struck down from above Zi Chen's head. It was as though five bolts of lightning had struck him. A destructive aura rippled as the power of lightning wreaked havoc.

The expected scene of Zi Chen being crushed by the lightning did not happen. Golden light overflowed from Zi Chen's body as streaks of golden lightning circled around his body, blocking the attack for him.

"It's indeed Heavenly Lightning Striking the Body. Zi Chen, you have to survive it. The benefits in the future will be great." Ah Mo sent a voice transmission to Zi Chen with an excited tone.

In the past, the Limitless Sect dominated the southern region, but no one had heard of a True Essence Realm cultivator experiencing a lightning tribulation.

Although Zi Chen's talent wasn't high, he had cultivated a terrifying Perfect Body. Now that he was about to experience a lightning tribulation, his future achievements would be limitless.

"Got it."

Zi Chen had already opened his eyes. His eyes flickered as a powerful aura filled his body. After refining a 0,555-year-old ice lotus, his strength had become even stronger and his Perfect Body was even more terrifying.

"Boom!"

The second bolt of heavenly lightning struck down with a terrifying aura. The light barrier around the Lightning Dominion was like a decoration in front of the heavenly lightning. It was instantly pierced through and the heavenly lightning struck.

Peng!

Zi Chen clenched his fists and flew up into the sky. His Perfect Body was completely revealed as golden light blinded one's eyes. He brandished his fist and smashed at the second bolt of heavenly lightning.

"Dong."

With a loud bang, the world trembled. The lightning in the Lightning Dominion became even more violent. The second bolt of heavenly lightning wreaked havoc, but it was shattered by Zi Chen. The powerful Perfect Body was very terrifying.

The heavenly lightning was dispersed, turning into energy that scattered in all directions. Zi Chen sucked it into his body.

Then, he circulated the supreme mystic manual and refined the heavenly lightning energy.

"Boom!"

The lightning was terrifying. Each bolt was stronger than the last. When the third bolt of lightning struck down, the world emitted a blinding light. Zi Chen punched out as his body shone with golden light. Exuberant lifeblood surged into the sky and shattered the third bolt of lightning with a boom.

"This Perfect Body is too terrifying. It actually dispersed the heavenly lightning." Ah Mo was extremely shocked in the Taiji diagram.

"Boom!"

There were no clouds in the sky for thousands of miles. All the heavenly lightning seemed to have appeared out of thin air. There was no need to accumulate power at all. The fourth heavenly lightning quickly fell. It was even more powerful and had a destructive aura. It caused the space to tremble as it fell on Zi Chen's head.

"Peng!"

This time, the perfect body, which had always been successful, was injured. Zi Chen's figure flew backward, and cracks appeared on his fist that was emitting golden light.

"The fourth Heavenly Thunder already injured me slightly. I wonder how many there are in total." Zi Chen looked up at the sky with a solemn expression. The Heavenly Thunder was far more terrifying than he had imagined.

The heavens and earth trembled as a destructive aura appeared. The fifth bolt of lightning descended, causing the space to tremble.

"Boom."

When the lightning struck, Zi Chen used his Perfect Body to block it. Following that, blood splattered. His fist was injured, revealing eerie white bones. The protective light shield around Zi Chen also shattered. Boundless lightning energy entered his body and began to wreak havoc in his body.

Each bolt of lightning was stronger and faster than the last.

"Boom!"

Just as the fifth bolt of lightning fell, the sixth bolt of lightning appeared. It was even stronger and more powerful. Before Zi Chen could react, it struck Zi Chen's head. Boundless lightning energy entered his body, almost splitting the top of Zi Chen's head. However, there was still a bolt of lightning energy that entered his sea of consciousness and converged with his will.

Zi Chen could not help but cry out in pain when his will was attacked by the lightning. The Heavenly Thunder was attacking his will, surging with a destructive aura. However, if he was baptized by the lightning, Zi Chen's will would be strengthened again.

Heavenly Thunder Tempering Body was not only tempering the body, but also the will.

However, there was half blessing and half disaster. It was up to him to see if he could avoid this calamity.

"Hum."

Zi Chen gritted his teeth and persevered. He kept circulating his cultivation technique. The True Qi in Abdomen was mobilized again, filling the surface of his body.

His eyes were abnormally bright as he looked at the sky. An unyielding fighting spirit rose in his heart.

"Zi Chen, you have a Perfect Body. It's just a single lightning tribulation. It's not worth mentioning. Once you survive it, your strength will increase greatly. Moreover, you will be able to cultivate the Yin-Yang secret art and become a well-deserved monster." Ah Mo encouraged from the side.

"Boom!"

The seventh bolt of heavenly lightning landed on Zi Chen's body. The terrifying energy caused Zi Chen's body to be covered in blood. White bones were exposed in many places. The scene was very frightening.

"Ha."

Zi Chen gritted his teeth and persevered. He activated the Innate True Qi in his body. With a loud shout, he went against the sky and rushed towards the eighth bolt of lightning.

"Boom!"

Thunder boomed, and the entire Thunder Region trembled. Zi Chen was struck down by the eighth bolt of Heavenly Thunder, smashing into the ground. His entire body was charred black, like a piece of charcoal, accompanied by a faint trace of life.

"Zi Chen, you have to persevere. It's just a single lightning tribulation. Once you survive it, you will truly transform. At that time, you will see the true terror of a Perfect Body." Ah Mo shouted from within the Taiji diagram.

"Zi Chen, hope is in front of you. The Yin-Yang secret art is beckoning to you. Only when you break through to the True Essence realm will you become a true monster."

Zi Chen's charred body trembled slightly as if he was replying to Ah Mo's words.

In his heart, a steady stream of life energy was replenishing. Zi Chen's life aura also became more and more vigorous.

Hum.

Zi Chen's body trembled as rays of golden light appeared once again, breaking through his charred skin. His pitch-black eyes once again became bright and resplendent.

"Come on, the ninth bolt of lightning."

Zi Chen's fighting spirit surged again. His heroic spirit soared into the sky, emitting an unyielding fighting spirit.

At this moment, the ninth bolt of lightning fell.

"Boom!"

The last bolt of lightning exploded, but the sound covered the entire Lightning Territory. It was as if this bolt of lightning was the only thing left in the world. It fell from the sky, flashing with silver light. It was dazzling and had an aura of destruction as it went straight for Zi Chen.

Zi Chen's body emitted a brilliant golden light. His entire body soared into the sky like a golden sun, rushing towards the ninth bolt of lightning.

"Boom!"

The lightning collided with Zi Chen, and an unparalleled aura erupted. Terrifying energy continued to wreak havoc. The silver light and golden light continued to be entangled in the air. Then, the silver light overshadowed the golden light and directly swallowed Zi Chen.

Peng!

A pitch-black figure fell from the sky. It was like a charred body, emitting black smoke. It smashed into the Lightning Territory without a sound.

The world was silent. The first Lightning Tribulation had disappeared. Even the Lightning Territory had stopped raging.

The first Lightning Tribulation had nine bolts of lightning. After the nine bolts of lightning fell, the world returned to calm.

Everything was silent.

"Zi Chen." Ah Mo's roar sounded from the Taiji diagram. With a flash of light, Ah Mo appeared.

He saw the charred corpse on the ground. It was completely silent.

"Zi Chen, you can't die," Ah Mo shouted.

"You have a Perfect Body. A mere first Lightning Tribulation is nothing. Are you going to be knocked down just like that?"

Zi Chen had already turned into charcoal. His body was emitting black smoke. There was no sign of life, but Ah Mo was still shouting.

"Zi Chen, don't forget about the hatred of the Nimbus Martial Ancestor. The Grand Elder is watching you from the sky. He's waiting for you to avenge the Nimbus Martial Ancestor."

Ah Mo shouted, trying to awaken Zi Chen's thoughts.

"And Lin Xue. She's also waiting for you."

"Su Mengyao's fate is unknown. How can you die now?"

Ah Mo was roaring at the charred corpse, but the charred corpse was indifferent. There was no sound.

The Lightning Tribulation was terrifying. It had an endless aura of destruction, but it was also accompanied by a rich vitality. Ah Mo did not believe that Zi Chen would die.

He was trying to awaken Zi Chen's thoughts that were about to die.

Ah Mo shouted loudly, his voice echoing over and over again.

"Pop."

Zi Chen's charred body suddenly made a sound. Although it was very soft, it reached Ah Mo's mind.

"Zi Chen, wake up quickly."

Ah Mo shouted loudly, his face filled with ecstasy. Spiritual senses surged out. He knew that Zi Chen's thoughts were still alive.

"Pop."

Another sound was heard. The charred body trembled slightly as a golden light seemed to appear.

"Zi Chen, Lightning Tribulation has completely transformed your Perfect Body. You have broken through to Quintessential Essence. You are a true monster."

"Hum."

Suddenly, a rich vitality appeared. It was like a huge storm that appeared out of thin air. The rich vitality surged out from the charred corpse and spread in all directions.

The charred corpse was nourished by the vitality. Zi Chen's aura gradually became stronger. This was a sign that he was about to recover.

"Peng."

When the boundless vitality reached a limit, a loud sound was heard. The charred body exploded completely. A naked man appeared from within. He was surrounded by a golden light, like a golden sun that bloomed with endless golden light.

The Lightning Tribulation had a terrifying aura of destruction, but it was also accompanied by vitality. This vitality allowed Zi Chen to reconstruct his body and complete another transformation.

This was a true transformation. From Innate Stage to Quintessential Essence, and after going through the Lightning Tribulation, it formed a Perfect Body.

At this moment, Zi Chen could be considered a Perfect Body.

"Perfect Body. This is the Perfect Body."

Zi Chen clenched his fists and felt a terrifying energy hibernating in his body. He had an illusion that if he punched out now, he could even shatter a mountain.

In addition to the changes in his Perfect Body, Zi Chen's consciousness also became golden. After the baptism of the Lightning Tribulation, his consciousness became stronger.

If Zi Chen's consciousness could extend dozens of meters before, then after the baptism of the Lightning Tribulation, Zi Chen's consciousness increased several times.

It was almost comparable to the consciousness of those monsters.

At the same time, the True Qi in Zi Chen's Abdomen had also successfully turned into Quintessential Essence.

The golden Lightning True Qi turned into Lightning Quintessential Essence. It became purer and richer.

"True Qi turning into Quintessential Essence is the true beginning. The Lightning Tribulation Technique has taken shape. In the future, it will be continuous Lightning Tribulation. Now, I can cultivate the Yin-Yang Art."

Ah Mo was very happy that Zi Chen had survived the first Lightning Tribulation, but his voice was a little low.

The Yin-Yang Art was a cultivation technique that sought a way out of a dead end. Every breakthrough was a narrow escape.

"You have to be careful. You must make Yin and Yang compatible. Yin and Yang must be balanced." Ah Mo warned again.

The Yin-Yang Art represented the compatibility of extreme Yin and extreme Yang. The two extreme energies could coexist. This cultivation technique was very powerful, but once cultivated, it was a narrow escape.

Back then, the Wuji Sect had also selected a group of talented geniuses to cultivate the compatibility of Yin and Yang. However, none of them could achieve the old master's achievements.
