Chapter 76: Devouring the Heavenly Tribulation

  Lei Hao swung his dragon-slaying sword, and a fierce aura burst out from his body, charging fearlessly into the tribulation clouds, drawing the heavenly tribulation's energy onto himself.

  All that could be heard was a dull 'boom' sound, a lightning bolt as thick as a water bucket illuminated the gloomy void in an instant, and heavily smashed onto Lei Hao's head.

  Lei Hao's hair evaporated in an instant, and the power of the thunderbolt recklessly charged into Lei Hao's body, but before it could cause any damage to his body, it was suppressed by Lei Hao's spiritual power in his dantian.

  "I'm telling you, it's really infuriating! Don't you know how much I hate being struck by lightning?" Lei Hao spat out a mouthful of saliva, scolding somewhat gloomily. But at this moment, Lei Hao's heart was filled with some doubts - the power of this tribulation thunder was far from matching the pressure of the heavenly tribulation. Was it really just a case of 'thunder loud but rain small'?"

  It was like the lightning before a rain, and after this bolt of lightning, countless bolts of lightning as thick as water buckets poured down on Leihao's body like rain, each one trying to outdo the others. Although none of them could cause any harm to him, Leihao still held his Dragon Slayer sword, concentrating all his energy on being vigilant.

  The shock brought to Lei Hao by the heavenly tribulation was too profound, and although the tribulations before him were nothing, Lei Hao still had some doubts in his heart.

  As more and more of the power of the lightning was suppressed by Lei Hao in his body, a purple half-solid object like an internal elixir slowly appeared on the hands of his primordial spirit in his dantian. His primordial spirit kept pinching out strands of incantations to stabilize this half-solid object.

  Moreover, Lei Hao discovered that when the power of the lightning robbery wandered in his physical body, it also vaporized all the impurities in his physical body. At this time, Lei Hao's divine consciousness clearly saw that his flesh and blood were becoming more and more crystal clear, and that kind of fragrance, like a treasure from heaven, was even smelled by himself.

  The energy contained in Lei Hao's body at this moment, just a small piece of it would be enough to let the little demon who had never cultivated before break through to the middle stage of the Inner Dan realm, of course, on the premise that he wouldn't be blown up by the huge energy.

  "If this calamity is just like this, then it's not a bad thing." Lei Hao thought to himself.

  Nor did he know how long he had been struck by lightning, and when the numbness of Lei Hao's body was somewhat dispelled, a sudden burst of thunder and lightning broke out in the midst of the tribulation cloud, with a swift and fierce strike that shook Lei Hao's body.

  Unprepared Lei Hao was directly struck by this thunderbolt and heavily smashed into the East China Sea from high altitude.

  On the desolate small island, Lei Da Niu and his brothers only saw Lei Hao falling fiercely into the sea like a meteor, creating waves dozens of feet high, and they all thought Lei Hao was heavily injured by the heavenly punishment.

  "Big Tiger, Wolf Tooth, let's go save our leader!" Lei Daniu shouted loudly, and prepared to charge out of the magical shield.

  Just then, Lei Hao's figure burst out of the sea surface and saw Lei Daniu's movement. He immediately shouted: "I'm fine, don't come out."

  "TMD, I knew it. Easy things won't happen to me." Lei Hao's face was somewhat solemn, no wonder he had always felt that the previous thunderbolts were not worthy of the pressure of this heavenly tribulation, it turned out that the previous wave of thunderbolts was just an appetizer!

  Lei Hao casually tore off the tattered cloak hanging on his body, and with a bare back, he held the butcher's knife and flew into the sky once again.

  After splitting those rolling thunderbolts, the tribulation clouds in the sky seemed very calm, as calm as a ordinary dark cloud, but the purple dragon claws exposed from the tribulation clouds made Lei Hao feel somewhat fearful.

  Lei Hao remembered that during the Tribulation of the Dragon Slaying Formation, the last one to descend was a bolt of tribulation lightning resembling a divine dragon. At that time, both Tui Long and Lei Hao had used their full strength to overcome that bolt of tribulation lightning; now, there were so many bolts of tribulation lightning in the shape of divine dragons...

  "This is going to be fun." Lei Hao gripped the hilt tightly, his eyes slowly burning with a fierce battle intent.

  After a moment, a slow-moving Thunder Dragon descended from the thunderclouds, its purple scales as large as millstones reflecting a chilling light. Two pupils, each as big as half a house, were filled with violent meaning.

  Looking at the giant Thunder Dragon, Lei Hao grasped his sword with both hands and leaped up. "Split the Earth." With a loud roar, Lei Hao unleashed a breathtaking slash that shook the earth.

  A blade of energy almost identical to that of the Dragon Slayer shot out, similarly flying slowly towards the Thunderbolt Divine Dragon.

  Lei Hao didn't have time to see the outcome of this strike, as a Thunderclap Divine Dragon flew out from the Thundercloud.

  "Po Lang" let out another loud roar and Lei Hao swung his knife with great force.

  ……

  An hour later, Lei Hao panted with a somewhat dull Dragon Slaying Sword, constantly gasping for air, his upper body's muscles, like they had been hacked by knives and axes, were covered in sweat droplets.

  Lei Hao couldn't remember how many knives he had chopped out, only that with his Golden Immortal-level strength, he was now exhausted to the point of collapse.

  "Come on, bring it on! Use every trick in the book!" Lei Hao bellowed at the top of his lungs.

  A sudden and intense turmoil in the clouds, yet there was no movement, instead it seemed to be dissipating.

  Exhausted and enraged, Lei Hao's eyes locked onto his opponent as he sneered, "Are you done? Now it's my turn!" The pent-up anger that had been building up inside Lei Hao finally erupted.

  Lei Hao relaxed his body, and with great difficulty, he pinched a few hand seals before shouting loudly: "Hmph, Fa Tian Xiang Di!" A purple light flashed by, and Lei Hao's body began to grow non-stop. Half a breath later, Lei Hao had transformed into a giant who stood with one foot on the Eastern Sea and his head in the void, like the four pillars that held up the sky.

  "Tuer Long" Lei Hao let out a loud shout, and the entire world between heaven and earth produced a rumbling sound.

  The Dragon Slaying Knife shook several times before starting to constantly change in length and width, quickly transforming from a large knife of one zhang two wide eight chi into an enormous battle knife that was half the height of Lei Hao.

  Lei Hao swung his hand and grasped the hilt of the knife, raised it and hacked at Jie Yun in a flurry of chaotic slashes.

  The dissipating dark clouds suddenly burst out with flashes of lightning, striking Tulong and sending him flying.

  "Ah, you dare to resist?" Lei Hao's anger was unrelenting, his hands releasing the Dragon Slayer as he opened his mouth wide, a massive suction force emanating from his throat.

  Ji Yun burst out with a series of intense lightning again, but this time it had no effect. After a stalemate for several breaths, he was swallowed by Lei Hao in one gulp.

  "Boom!" Lei Hao let out a thunderous belch after which he could no longer maintain his divine connection with heaven and earth, his body began to shrink and condense. After reverting back to his human form, Lei Hao's body swayed before plummeting down from the high altitude.

  By his side, Tú Lóng let out a soft hum and quickly flew under Lei Hao's body, gently lifting him up.

  "Thanks a lot, old chap." Lei Hao patted the blade of Tulong's sword with great difficulty, this time he really had used up all his strength.

  The dragon-slaying knife handle curved and nodded in response at that time.

  At this time, in Lei Hao's dantian, a dim and faint primordial spirit was making a small face, gritting its teeth to deal with the floating gray cloud on his territory. The primordial spirit's small hands constantly pinched out mysterious and obscure hand seals, and purple magical powers continuously rushed towards that gray cloud.

  But grey clouds kept flashing with lightning, blocking the purple magic outside.

  The primordial spirit persisted for a while without effect, then suddenly became enraged. A pair of chubby little hands rapidly cast out strands of magical power, but instead of charging into the gray shadowy clouds, they formed a cocoon-like object outside the clouds, enveloping the gray shadowy clouds inside.

  When the 'cocoon' is thick enough, it slowly wraps around the gray cloud. Facing this 'cocoon', the gray cloud bursts out with flashes of lightning, but can't push this 'cocoon' away.

  When the 'cocoon' tightly wrapped in grey clouds, Lei Hao's divine consciousness beckoned with one hand, and it was summoned to his feet. After a few chaotic stomps with his chubby little foot, his small face looked much better.

  "Head, head, are you alright?" Tulong supported Lei Hao as he had just returned to the small island, and Lei Wei's brothers were about to surround them.

  The extremely vigilant dragon slayer issued a series of warning sharp knife howls, while a few somewhat dim knife auras kept flashing around Lei Hao's body.

  "It's alright, Tulong, these are all my brothers." Lei Hao struggled to get up, patted the blade of Tulong's sword and said softly.

  The dragon-slaying sword shook slightly before charging straight into Lei Hao's body.

  Lei Hao stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

  "Are you alright?" Lei Da Niu hastily stepped forward and supported Lei Hao, asking with a worried face.

  "It's nothing, nothing, just a bit of a letdown." Lei Hao said with a smile.

  "Not yet, but if you return to the cave in this state, we'll be scolded by Big Sister until our faces are covered in blood." The restored human form of Lie Ya opened a pair of small eyes and looked up and down at Lei Hao.

  Lei Hao beckoned with his hand, and the puzzled Lie Ya honestly leaned in.

  Lei Hao raised his large hand and slapped it forcefully on the head of the fierce beast, saying with a sigh: "I think you were more pleasing to the eye when you were a pig, what do you guys think?"

  "Agreed." Lei Daniu said with a mischievous grin on his face.

  "Agreed." Lei Dahai said with a sinister smile on his face.

  "Agreed." All the brothers said loudly.

  "My wife disagrees." Fang Ya's eyes flashed with tears and said loudly.
