Chapter 645: 645

The Huo family expert had assumed the heavenly tribulation had ended . He was just about to attack Long Chen when he sensed something was wrong .

The others were all looking up at the sky in horror, their eyes filled with shock .

When he raised his head as well, he saw the tribulation clouds had been concealed by countless lightning monsters . The lightning monsters blocked the clouds, making him think that the clouds had already scattered .

Each one of these lightning monsters was over three hundred meters long . There were wolves, tigers, leopards, jackals, etc .

These weren’t true Magical Beasts . They were merely what thunderforce had transformed into . And yet, the endless destructive aura released from them made it seem like they could destroy the entire world .

“What kind of heavenly tribulation is this?!”

The five Sea Expansion experts were all appalled . Even when they had undergone their tribulations, the thunderforce itself had only been slightly stronger than this . Furthermore, no lightning monsters had appeared .

The lightning pythons had already been extremely shocking to them . But now that they saw these lightning monsters, they all turned numb .

“Is it because we exposed our auras?” guessed one of them .

“That’s absolutely impossible . We didn’t use any of our true abilities . There’s only one possibility: this lightning is all because of Long Chen, and we’re only being implicated,” said the Huo family elder .

“But how is that possible? How could a Xiantian tribulation menace Sea Expansion experts?!”

RUMBLE!!!

The lightning monsters didn’t give them time to ponder that question . They began to surge down .

BOOM!

A Celestial smashed apart one of them, only to be knocked back, wildly vomiting blood . Even Celestials could only destroy one lightning monster at a time, and they would be heavily injured as a result . These lightning monsters were too terrifying .

The most terrifying thing was that the black clouds in the sky were like incubators for these monsters . An endless stream of them came crashing down on the Corrupt path’s experts .

“AHH! No!”

One of the lightning monsters slipped through into the midst of the Corrupt disciples . Even with five Sea Expansion experts and six Celestials, they were unable to block these endless lightning monsters .

As soon as one of them slipped through, it underwent a violent slaughter of the Corrupt disciples . Miserable screams rang out incessantly .

Long Chen was also surrounded by lightning monsters . Lei Long devoured them frantically, but there were too many, and some of them still managed to reach Long Chen . His saber released blood-red waves; any lightning monsters would be killed with a single slash of his saber .

Having frequently had to deal with thunderforce, Long Chen had long since become accustomed . He had an extremely high resistance to it, so while the Celestials couldn’t block the backlash, Long Chen could essentially ignore it .

Furthermore, Lei Long had already grown past three thousand meters . It was becoming more and more terrifying . The lightning monsters might be powerful, but they didn’t know how to defend . They were devoured one by one .

Long Chen only had to handle any that slipped through . In comparison to the Corrupt path, he had it extremely easy .

The Corrupt path was in a complete mess now . There were too many lightning monsters and too many Corrupt disciples, causing their defensive perimeter to be too large to defend .

Lightning monsters would occasionally manage to slip through . By the time a Sea Expansion expert could destroy it, hundreds of Corrupt disciples would die .

In less than an incense stick’s time, there were less than ten thousand Corrupt disciples remaining .

Furthermore, they continued to be slaughtered . The Corrupt experts’ expressions were incomparably gloomy . This time, they really had brought disaster upon themselves . If this continued, how were they supposed to give an explanation to the sects that had participated?

“Everyone, work together and endure! This is definitely the last wave!” ordered a Sea Expansion expert furiously .

Seeing his elite disciples be turned to dust, he was incredibly anxious but also helpless to do anything .

These lightning monsters were too powerful . Each one of them could be compared to a half-step Sea Expansion expert . Furthermore, they were formed from thunderforce, making them even more terrifying .

The Sea Expansion experts didn’t dare release their true power to fight . Handling a few dozen lightning monsters at one time was already each of their limits .

As for the six Celestials, they had truly been abandoned by the heavens . They no longer received any protection from the Heavenly Daos . They were ruthlessly attacked by the lightning monsters, constantly vomiting blood .

Fortunately, they had their Heavenly Dao Recovery . They could use their core energy to heal . Otherwise, they would have already died .

This heavenly tribulation was too terrifying . In just a few more minutes, the Corrupt disciples numbered no more than five thousand .

However, with fewer people, it became easier for them to defend . Their defensive perimeter shrank, and it was no longer so taxing .

BOOM!

Suddenly, the lightning monsters disappeared, which made the Corrupt experts sigh with relief . Some disciples directly collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath . They had finally managed to escape with their lives .

The Corrupt experts saw Long Chen standing in the distance, his saber resting on his shoulder . He was smiling at them . That smile… it could only be described as wretched, incredibly wretched . Just looking at it would make a person feel like they might explode .

“Long Chen, hand over your life!!” One of the Sea Expansion experts was just about to charge at him .

Long Chen waved his hand to him and then pointed his finger at the sky, winking .

“What?”

When they looked at the sky, they were all filled with despair . The tribulation clouds had yet to scatter . They were gathering together, and endless lightning runes were condensing . A terrifying pressure fell on all of them .

“Is there ever going to be an end?!” roared an unwilling Celestial .

Long Chen sneered . Just this was enough to make them mad? He had started undergoing this annihilation tribulations since Blood Condensation, and he hadn’t even complained .

Well, the main point was that complaining didn’t have any use .

Good things should be shared with others . The true tribulation began now .

RUMBLE!!!

The explosive rumbling coming from the sky was the only sound that could be heard . The heavenly might made even the Sea Expansion experts’ expressions change . They sensed mortal danger .

Suddenly, nine figures appeared in the sky . It was nine human-shaped lightnings .

Their faces weren’t clear, but they had a pair of wings on their backs, and they were three meters tall . They made everyone feel endless terror .

One of those human-shaped lightnings shot toward the Corrupt path . A lightning prong actually appeared in its hands, which it stabbed down .

One of the Sea Expansion experts slammed his hand toward it, and as a result, he was sent shooting back, vomiting a mouthful of blood .

Any disciples unfortunate enough to be behind him ended up being smashed apart by the impact . A long line of death appeared in their midst, as the Sea Expansion expert only managed to stabilize dozens of miles away .

Hundreds of Corrupt disciples had died from this one exchange . That was more than a tenth of their number . There was no way around that, as they were too gathered together . They didn’t even have a chance to dodge .

Following the first human-shaped lightnings, the other eight also flew down . What made the Corrupt path the most infuriated was the fact that only one went after Long Chen . The other eight charged into their midst .

PFFT! A Celestial exchanged blows with one, and as a result, he was sent flying, cracks appearing all over his body . He had been just the slightest bit away from instantly dying .

“Don’t look after the ordinary disciples anymore! Focus on protecting the Celestials!” cried one of the Corrupt experts . He began a fierce battle with one of the human-shaped lightnings .

The ordinary disciples despaired . They had been pitilessly abandoned .

In just a few breaths’ time, those ordinary disciples were all slaughtered . The five Sea Expansion experts and six Celestials were doing their best against the eight human-shaped lightnings, but they were still in a dangerous situation .

“We can’t continue like this . If we don’t go all-out, we’ll also die,” roared one of the Sea Expansion experts .

But if they did release their full power, the lightning tribulation would immediately sense them and release even more terrifying lightning tribulation based upon their cultivation base .

Long Chen was in the Meridian Opening realm attacking the Xiantian realm, which drew down Xiantian tribulation . In other words, if the Sea Expansion experts were sensed by the tribulation, it would send down tribulation for when they attacked the realm even higher than Sea Expansion . They were only at the early Sea Expansion realm, and such a heavenly tribulation would definitely kill them .

One of the laws of heavenly tribulation was that it wouldn’t allow experts to interfere, or it would attack them . But if the people interfering were not stronger than the person undergoing tribulation, the tribulation would still be set to the power level of that person .

In other words, amongst all these Xiantian experts, Long Chen’s power was at the peak . Otherwise, an ordinary Xiantian tribulation would not be even close to this level .

Long Chen was also fighting a fierce battle now . These human-shaped lightnings were too terrifying . But with Lei Long’s assistance, it still wasn’t extremely dangerous for him .

Furthermore, his high resistance to lightning was something that even Sea Expansion experts could not hope to match .

So those Sea Expansion experts were battered and bruised, but he was still fine . The only thing that made him depressed was that Lei Long was unable to devour the human-shaped lightning . It could only help him fight it .

Finally, a Sea Expansion expert once more vomited blood from being struck by a human-shaped lightning and was about to die . In his desperation, his aura erupted and an illusory sea appeared behind him .

“Die!” He was finally unable to endure it . If he still didn’t release his full strength, he would definitely be killed .

BOOM!

His punch sent the human-shaped lightning flying . But in that instant, everyone’s expressions changed, including Long Chen .
