Chapter 196 - 10,000-Cultivators Array Formation
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
The Heavenly Lightning Bolt with 13,000 times the power of the first one had broken the second last core defense layer of the array formation and was crashing toward the people on the altar.
Wood, fire, earth, metal, and water!
The Heavenly Lightning Bolt had broken the layers of wood, fire, earth, and metal. Only the last and most crucial water-elemental defense array formation was left.
The five elements created each other. Since the Heavenly Lightning Bolt had broken four of them, the core of the array formation was damaged.
Seeing the blue light shield beginning to shake, everyone gritted their teeth and transferred all their energy into the altar!
Hao Ren had thought that the power of the lightning would be cold in the pouring storm. However, when the Heavenly Lightning Bolt was above his head, he sensed the burning pressure from it through the last layer of the array formation.
Its temperature was as high as ten thousand degrees, hot enough to burn people into ashes instantly!
If it had not been for the protection of the water elemental defense array formation, all of them would have been burned into ashes!
Even the purple-robed elders couldn’t open their eyes at this dazzling Heavenly Lightning Bolt.
Zhao Yanzi squatted next to Hao Ren, tightly holding his arm.
Life or death, they were in it together!
The blue defense array formation shook violently; it could collapse at any moment!
Crack! Crack… The altar that was as big as several soccer fields began to crack all over and started to shake violently!
The Heavenly Lightning Bolt was crashing against the altar with tens of thousands of pounds of force!
If it weren’t for the Nature Essences that tens of thousands of cultivators injected into the altar, it would have been shattered into debris by the first wave of the strike.
Hao Ren put all of his Nature Essence into the altar and felt his arms go numb.
This was the power of the Heavenly Lightning Bolt!
It was not an ordinary Heavenly Lightning Bolt, but the Heavenly Tribulation from the Ninth Heaven!
Under the support of the Nature Essence from everyone present, the last layer of the blue defense array formation was humming and blinking, managing to withstand the 18th Heavenly Lightning Bolt.
Bang! Bang!
Occasionally, some soldiers were bounced off the altar by the power of the Heaven Tribulation as its power was spread onto the people on the altar.
The power of this final Heavenly Lightning Bolt was 13,000 times more powerful than the first Heavenly Lightning Bolt. If it were distributed evenly to each person, each of them would have to withstand the full power of the first Heavenly Lightning Bolt!
It was natural that the weaker cultivators couldn’t bear the pressure.
More importantly, not everyone could withstand the power of the lightning bolt that could break all five elements.
Pale-faced, the elders could barely manage it, but the soldiers were bounced off one by one!
The power of the final Heavenly Lightning Bolt above the blue array formation didn’t disappear. The power of this Heavenly Tribulation was awe-inspiring!
“Premier Xia, take Zi and Ren out of here!” Zhao Guang turned his head and shouted!
In this critical moment, the Heavenly Lightning Bolt could crash down at any moment, and everyone under it would probably die!
After all, it was against the natural law for them to help Zhao Kuo withstand the Heavenly Tribulation.
“Yes! Your Majesty!” Pale-faced and exhausted, Premier Xia stood up and hurried toward Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi.
“Dad! I won’t go!” Zhao Yanzi yelled.
“Behave!” Zhao Guang raised his hand and pushed her aside without touching her.
Premier Xia hurried over and helped Zhao Yanzi up. “Princess, please go with me!”
He looked at Hao Ren who was still injecting his Nature Essence into the altar and said, “Fuma, please go with me. Leave it to His Majesty!”
Seeing all the generals and elders who were still supporting the altar with pale faces and the soldiers who kept coming back onto the altar after being bounced off, Hao Ren shook his head and said, “No, I won’t go! You take Zi with you!”
“Your Majesty, please retreat!” Suddenly, Lu Qing raised his head and shouted at Zhao Guang on the high platform.
Others seconded his plea, shouting, “Your Majesty! Please retreat! Your Majesty! Please retreat!”
“No, I won’t!” Zhao Guang placed his hands that were covered by the green energy back on the altar. “I will fight with you!”
Zhao Kuo, with blood all over him, took several deep breaths before struggling to stand on his feet. “Brother! Let me go out and die with the Heaven Tribulation!”
If Zhao Kuo were wiped out by the Heavenly Lightning Bolt, the entire Heavenly Tribulation would end, and the other people wouldn’t die with him.
His brother was on one side, and tens of thousands of the elite cultivators of East Ocean were on the other. Zhao Guang was in a dilemma.
“We are willing to block the Heavenly Tribulation for Third Lord!” the twelve generals in golden armors suddenly shouted together.
“We are willing to block the Heavenly Tribulation for Third Lord!” the 12,000 soldiers also shouted, and their voices repeatedly echoed in the altar!
The stunning scene set everyone’s heart on fire!
Zhao Kuo was the Supreme Commander in the East Ocean Dragon Palace. The generals and the soldiers had been fighting alongside!
“Ok! We will face life and death together!” pressing against the bloody wounds on his chest with one of his hands, Zhao Kuo stood up and placed his other bloody hand on the altar.
The blue array formation was instantly covered in a red mist!
He was putting his dragon blood and vital essences into the array formation!
Even after being struck by 17 Heavenly Lightning Bolts, Zhao Kuo still possessed some Nature Essence.
The array formation that was on the verge of collapsing was strengthened by what he did, and it began to push back against the last Heavenly Lightning Bolt!
The morale was greatly boosted!
With blood-red eyes, Zhao Kuo continued to inject his blood into the altar!
The engravings on the milky white altar began to turn pink!
The array formation above the altar hummed louder, releasing dazzling blue light and blocking the white Heavenly Lightning Bolt.
Zhao Yanzi took the opportunity to run back to Hao Ren before placing her small hands onto the altar.
Without her Dragon Core, she still possessed a tiny but of Nature Essence. Moved by what he saw, Hao Ren circulated his Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll to its limit, feeling like his weak remaining power was being absorbed bit by bit by the engravings of the altar.
This Heavenly Lightning Bolt with 13,000 times the power of the first one was in a tough battle against the array formation consisted of the power of more than ten thousand cultivators!
It was a long and hard moment!
Everyone gritted their teeth, not daring to relax a little bit!
Boom!
The deadlock lasted for a long while before the Heavenly Lightning Bolt exploded in the air abruptly!
Seconds later, the blue array formation also shattered into pieces!
A huge crack also appeared in the middle of the altar, turning it into two parts!
Only the elders and generals were able to stand; the 12,000 soldiers all fell to the ground.
This battle exhausted all of their Nature Essence. If their enemies launched a sudden attack, they would all die!
Of course, they had chosen a spot in the deep sea and kept the location a secret; no enemy would come and attack them!
Boom! As if the Heaven was resentful of the defeat, after the 18 Heavenly Lightning Bolts, another small lightning bolt was released by the clouds!
Everyone was astonished since this small lightning bolt struck directly toward Zhao Guang, Zhao Kuo, and Zhao Hongyu!
The Heaven was punishing them for blocking and interfering with the Heavenly Tribulation!
“Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll, absorb!” Hao Ren who stood near them suddenly lifted his hands subconsciously.
