Zongzheng Liuning let out a loud shout, and then, under everyone’s gaze, he raised the Heaven-Overturning Seal and charged straight up into the sky.
Judging by his demeanor, it was clear he intended to take his Heaven-Overturning Seal and actively confront the heavenly tribulation head-on.
No one had expected such a bold and heroic move.
Countless people felt deep admiration for Zongzheng Liuning’s audacity.
“Wow! No wonder he’s Zongzheng Liuning, facing such a powerful heavenly tribulation, he still dares to take the initiative to attack. Such momentum is truly overwhelming!!”
“Yes! I always thought Lord Zongzheng was incredibly powerful, but now seeing him undergo his tribulation, he’s directly become an idol in my heart!!”
“In the future, I want to be just like Lord Zongzheng and overturn that heavenly tribulation!!”
At this moment, Zongzheng Liuning’s momentum was indeed formidable, and his charge toward the tribulation was especially exhilarating.
If anyone could fight the heavenly tribulation, probably no one would back down.
However, this didn’t mean they could actually defeat it.
As Zongzheng Liuning charged toward the tribulation, it reacted instantly.
Originally, the lightning power was only a few hundred meters thick.
Sensing Zongzheng Liuning’s provocation, it instantly swelled to a thickness of ten thousand meters.
The lightning not only illuminated the entire world but also gave everyone a sense of utter annihilation.
That blinding white light made people feel as if anyone caught within it would be vaporized.
Struck by it, and there would be no chance of survival—certain death.
Thus, many cried out in alarm.
“Ah! Lord Zongzheng, be careful!!”
“No!!”
Even Zongzheng Liuning himself now sensed a tremendous threat.
The Heaven-Overturning Seal in his hand was instantly enlarged, and he thrust it upward with all his might.
“Boom, rumble!!”
In an instant, the sound of thunder resounded throughout heaven and earth.
Many felt their ears stinging and their eyes nearly blinded by the flash.
Instinctively, numerous people closed their eyes and covered their ears.
Thus, many also missed the scene where Zongzheng Liuning, using his Heaven-Overturning Seal, directly overturned that ten-thousand-meter-thick bolt of lightning.
Having withstood the ten-thousand-meter-thick lightning, Zongzheng Liuning stood completely unharmed, his heroic spirit soaring.
“Again!!”
He shouted loudly and once more charged toward the tribulation clouds high above the nine heavens.
Judging by his appearance, it seemed as if he intended to fight his way up to the very heavens themselves.
The tribulation clouds above clearly perceived Zongzheng Liuning as a threat, so they struck down with lightning even more rapidly.
The incredibly powerful lightning descended like endless falling raindrops, continuously attacking Zongzheng Liuning.
Among them, the ten-thousand-meter-thick lightning served as the main force.
Other lightning bolts acted as support, relentless and unceasing.
It felt as if the entire world was targeting Zongzheng Liuning, intent on annihilating him.
Yet, Zongzheng Liuning rose to the challenge, bravely pushing upward against the lightning onslaught.
One had to admit, Zongzheng Liuning like this was exceptionally domineering and inspired countless people.
Especially at this moment, Zongzheng Liuning had already withstood numerous lightning strikes and reached the very edge of the tribulation clouds.
“Get back down there!!”
Zongzheng Liuning roared in fury, and then he slammed the Heaven-Overturning Seal heavily onto the tribulation clouds.
The sensation was clearly one of trying to disperse the tribulation clouds.
If the tribulation clouds scattered, then he would have successfully crossed this heavenly tribulation.
Many realized this point, so they stared intently at the clouds in the sky, hoping to witness Zongzheng Liuning magnificently overcome this tribulation before everyone’s eyes.
However, beautiful thoughts often meet cruel reality.
Zongzheng Liuning’s Heaven-Overturning Seal did indeed come close to dispersing the tribulation clouds.
But they quickly coalesced again.
Not only that, but they also rose higher and higher, their power growing increasingly intense.
That formidable pressure even left many struggling to breathe.
Everyone sensed that the tribulation clouds had become stronger.
This made many people’s expressions turn serious.
Even Zongzheng Liuning calmed down at this point, staring intently at the heavens above.
Meanwhile, his heart was filled with anxiety.
His earlier defiant charge upward had already consumed a great deal of his strength.
And striking the clouds had concentrated his most powerful blow.
He had originally believed that under his strongest attack, the tribulation clouds above should have dissipated.
Who would have thought they would become even more formidable instead?
Zongzheng Liuning hardly needed to think to know what would happen next.
Thus, he focused completely, preparing to face the even more powerful heavenly tribulation.
Under everyone’s gaze, the tribulation did indeed undergo a new transformation.
Within the tribulation, the lightning palace they had seen before appeared once more.
This time, the palace was even grander than the one seen when Ye Wushuang underwent his tribulation.
Its imposing presence pressed down so heavily that everyone fell into utter silence.
The appearance of the lightning palace silenced all other sounds in the world.
Dare not speak loudly, for fear of disturbing the celestial beings above.
The next moment, celestial beings did indeed emerge from the lightning-formed palace.
These celestial beings were creatures formed from lightning.
One of them stood nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine zhang tall, even taller than the lightning creature Ye Wushuang had encountered during his tribulation.
Moreover, he wielded a strange weapon, resembling a general on a battlefield.
Seeing the weapon in the lightning creature’s hand, Ye Wushuang widened his eyes slightly.
He realized the weapon held by this lightning-formed creature looked somewhat familiar.
This weapon resembled the legendary Nine-Tooth Nail Rake.
And the Nine-Tooth Nail Rake was famously the weapon of Marshal Tianpeng in the heavenly court legends. Now, it appeared in the hand of this lightning-formed creature.
This made Ye Wushuang very curious whether there was any connection between this lightning creature and Marshal Tianpeng.
However, this tribulation belonged to Zongzheng Liuning, and Ye Wushuang couldn’t casually interfere.
Although the lightning-formed creature possessed some intelligence, it didn’t seem particularly pronounced, appearing more driven by combat instinct.
Thus, Ye Wushuang chose to observe and see just how different this nine-thousand-nine-hundred-ninety-nine-zhang lightning creature truly was.
Others, however, felt differently; they didn’t perceive anything particularly unusual about this lightning-formed creature.
It merely seemed slightly taller than the lightning creature they had seen before.
Whether short or tall, it still had to be fought. So neither the others nor Zongzheng Liuning felt any fear toward this nine-thousand-nine-hundred-ninety-nine-zhang lightning general.
That was until Zongzheng Liuning prepared to charge at him—the lightning-formed creature suddenly, just like a human, unleashed his divine ability.
“Waters of the Heavenly River, heed my command!”
“Summon wind and rain, overturn rivers and seas!!”
