War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

2311 Time Stopped

Beneath the Tribulation Clouds.

Many people shook their heads and sighed when they saw Duan Ling Tian facing the Tribulation Lightning. His flaming self paled in comparison to the lightning that was like a falling meteorite from space.

“The differences between both of them are too wide!”

“I don’t think Duan Ling Tian will be able to overcome the 80th lightning bolt even when he’s uninjured, let alone now that he’s severely injured!”

“I agree. The 80th lightning strike from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation is really powerful. It’s many times stronger compared to the previous lightning bolts!”

Someone sighed. “It’s pitiful that a genius is going to die just like this.”

“How can you say it’s a pity? He’s not one of us after all. He’s a human and doesn’t deserve our pity!”

Everyone believed Duan Ling Tian would not survive the 80th Tribulation Lightning from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation.

...

Meanwhile, Ke’er and Duan Si Ling were so frightened when they saw Duan Ling Tian charging headlong toward the Tribulation Lightning that seemed like a meteorite from space. Their faces turned pale and they quickly closed their eyes, unable to watch the scene before them.

Gan Ru Yan, on the other hand, gazed at that purple figure solemnly.

Peng Lai who was standing nearby had an expression of respect on his face as he watched Duan Ling Tian.

...

Huang Wen Jing closed her eyes as well. She could not bear to continue watching. She made a promise to Duan Ling Tian inwardly. ‘Don’t worry... As long as I, Huang Wen Jing, am around. Nobody will be able to hurt them!’

“Brother Ling Tian!” Huang Qi Ling closed both his eyes in pain. He had tightly clenched his hands into fists that his fingernails had cut into his flesh, but he was not aware of it at all. He was too absorbed in self-loathing and blamed himself for being too weak to help his friend.

...

“Hah!”

“Die!”

Yun Fu Ye, the Vice Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace, and Shi Nan Feng, the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace, smirked as they stared at Duan Ling Tian intently. It was as though they were afraid they would miss the scene of Duan Ling Tian being struck dead by the Tribulation Lightning.

As for the people from the Three Palaces and Six Halls, most of them were watching unemotionally. They might hold a hint of respect for Duan Ling Tian, but in their opinion, he was not worthy of mercy because he was human.

...

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of thunder continued to reverberate in the air from the Tribulation Clouds.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was getting closer and closer to the 80th lightning bolt. In just a blink of an eye, he was only 100 meters away. He could close this distance in just seconds.

“Come! I’d like to see how strong the 80th lightning bolt is!”

Duan Ling Tian released all his Saint Origin that resonated strongly with heaven and earth, causing the golden flames that surrounded his body to burn even more brightly, accentuating his dragon scales. He looked like a fire god.

Due to the strong connection between Duan Ling Tian’s Saint Origin and heaven and earth, he seemed to have become one with the universe. It made him seem like he was not part of this world.

Nevertheless, such a magnificent scene paled before the 80th Tribulation Lightning from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation!

So what if one had a strong connection with heaven and earth? The Tribulation Lightning from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation represented the power of heaven and earth! If the heavens wanted one dead, one would definitely die!

The Heavenly Tribulation happened when one committed an act that went against the will of Heaven. To succeed in overcoming the Heavenly Tribulation meant one had to go against the will of Heaven!

After Duan Ling Tian released his Saint Origin through the 99 Saint Veins, he looked coldly at the lightning bolt near him. Suddenly, he cried out, “Go!” He quickly cast his Divine Ability, the Otherworldly Celestial. A few clones appeared instantly. He and the clones, wielding the Thousand Inscription Swords, charged toward the lightning bolt.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

It was blindingly bright as Duan Ling Tian and his clones approached the lightning bolt. Whether it was Duan Ling Tian or his clones, none of their faces showed fear in the face of death.

...

When everyone saw Duan Ling Tian and his clones who were wielding Thousand Saint Inscription Swords were only 50 meters away from the 80th lightning bolt, all of them thought to themselves, “Duan Ling Tian is going to die!”

When Duan Ling Tian and his clones were about to collide with the lightning bolt...

Time seemed to have stopped.

Boom!

A loud noise could be heard from the Tribulation Clouds.

...

Above the Tribulation Clouds.

The Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan and his master, the grey-clad old man, watched in shock as the golden flame bird that was flying in and out of the colorful Auspicious Cloud suddenly let out a strange noise before it suddenly exploded, causing the air to turn turbulent.

When they regained their senses after a while, they discovered the bird had disappeared.

“How fast!” Naturally, the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan did not think the bird had vanished. He knew that its speed was so fast that he was unable to catch its movement.

Even the grey-clad old man could only vaguely catch the movement of the bird as it flew down the Tribulation Clouds at the speed of light. “This speed...” His eyes widened in shock as though he had just seen a ghost. It had been a while since any expression could be seen on his face. To think it was a golden flame bird that managed to elicit such an expression from him.

...

Under the Tribulation Cloud.

It seemed as though time had stopped at this moment.

Swoosh!

The golden flaming bird flew down before it collided with Duan Ling Tian and his clones.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian felt as though he was being held by a vast force, it caused him to lose control of his clones immediately. ‘What’s happening?’

The crowd watched as Duan Ling Tian and his clones that were wielding Thousand Inscriptions Saint Swords seemed to be shrouded by a bird-shaped golden flame that seemingly appeared out of thin air. Following that, they saw Duan Ling Tian and his clones colliding with the lightning bolt, resulting in dazzlingly bright light. The lights were a mixture of gold, white and purple.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

A series of deafening explosions rang in the air as mushroom clouds began to appear and a shockwave began to spread out.

Although the people prepared themselves, many of them, especially those with a lower cultivation base, were blown away by the shockwave!

Heavy wind began to blow and howled, causing the robes of the people present to flutter wildly. All of them squinted, trying to take a look at what was happening.

“I don’t know... The moment Duan Ling Tian collided with the tribulation lightning, he seemed to have cast a Divine Ability that shrouded him in the shape of a giant bird!”

“The bird looks identical to the bird that flew up to the Tribulation Clouds earlier...”

“Don’t tell me the bird that flew up to the Tribulation Clouds earlier has something to do with Duan Ling Tian?”

Many people were stunned by what they saw and they could not help but discuss Duan Ling Tian and the golden bird among themselves.

“This will only occur when two forces of similar strength collide!” An elder from the Azure Sheen Hall murmured. His voice was not loud but many heard it since the scene was completely silent.

Many people sneered and jeered.

“Two forces of similar strength? Don’t you think you’re thinking too much? Duan Ling Tian has already exhausted all his strength. How could his strength now be as strong as the 80th lightning bolt?”

“That’s right! Based on Duan Ling Tian’s current condition, even if the last Divine Ability he cast is extraordinary, I don’t think he’ll be able to overcome the 80th Tribulation Lightning!”

“The shockwave earlier must be a result of Duan Ling Tian being killed!”

“My Divine Consciousness can’t enter that area at all... I think we’ll only be able to see once the force from the collision disperses. Moreover, I agree. I think Duan Ling Tian is dead as well!”

As they continued their discussion, they were still staring intently at the area where Duan Ling Tian and the tribulation lightning collided. However, due to blindingly bright gold, white, and purple light, they could not see with their naked eyes nor use their Divine Consciousness to sense what was going on in that area.

...

Ke’er murmured to herself, “Brother Tian...” She had opened her eyes and looked at the tri-color lights that seemed to contain vast power. Her face was pale and her heart was throbbing in her chest.

“Daddy!” Duan Si Ling cried out when she saw this. She felt the same way as her mother.

“That bird earlier...” Gan Ru Yan and Peng Lai saw the bird that seemed to appear out of thin air even though Ke’er and Duan Si Ling did not see it. Was this not the bird that acted as Duan Ling Tian’s protector while he was in closed-door cultivation?
