577: Soaring Dragon In The Clouds

Soaring Dragon In The Clouds

Zhong Yue nearly spat out a mouth of blood in shock, he exclaimed, "What? This is just the first level of Lightning Tribulation?" 

Before he could even recollect his thoughts, the Leizhe dragon god has already galvanized into actions. The dragon's claws along with its body was over a thousand feet long, it was like a moving mountain ridge purely formed by the lightning totem patterns.

Thunder rumbled as it moved, it slashed a claw down at Zhong Yue with great power!

The dragon claw has five fingers, although formed by the lightning totem patterns, they were imbued with the power of the five elements, each finger resembled one of the five elements as it slammed down!

Zhong Yue yelled, he changed into the Fuxi True Form and slithered from the dragon claw a fine line away from impact!

Unexpectedly, Zhong Yue did not wield the two sabers, and have decided to focus on one only. He clenched on the heavy Metamagnet Divine Saber while moving along the dragon's huge body, waving the saber up and down incessantly at it.

Shua, shua, shua, shua, shua—

Saber rays rained on the Leizhe dragon god from its head to tail!

However, despite the divine saber's incredible weight and sharpness, it dealt little to none damages on the Leizhe dragon god. It couldn't even penetrate through its scales and left only faint marks on it.

The dragon scales were filled with marvelus totem patterns, unlike anything he have seen before, they were stronger and more profound. When the Metamagnet Divine Saber slashed on the scales, the lightning totem patterns would burst out into lightning flowers that blocked and unloaded the saber strike before it reaches to the scales.

"Of course!", Xin Huo answered insouciantly, "This lightning Leizhe dragon god is the end of the first level of Lightning Tribulation, kill it and you can proceed to the Lei Zhe lightning loch of the second level Lightning Tribulation. One after another, you will eventually reach to the 49th Lei Zhe lightning loch; after that, only will you be considered as passing through all the Lightning Tribulations. The Lei Zhe lightning loch constitutes the heaven and earth, while the Leizhe dragon god is the manifestation of the will of nature. Defeat it, succeed in the first level Lightning Tribulation, and you have the recognition of the heaven and earth!"

"The Leizhe dragon god is the will of the heaven and earth?", Zhong Yue inhaled deeply.

Meanwhile, the Leizhe dragon god had swung its tail in a full circle and coiled its body together. Its head rose high above and turned around, blasting out endless lightning rays from its mouth down on Zhong Yue!

In the lightnings, Zhong Yue muffled a deep groan, his body was charred like a human size charcoal, and was lashed away by the dragon's tail!

This is just the first level and its so strong already! And Xin Huo still said I can manage 40 levels, looks like he has overestimate my strength! The first level alone has almost… wait a second!

Zhong Yue had tumbled in mid-air for some distance before coming to a stop. He quickly bowed and cast the [Worshipping of Gods]. The Solar Divine Saber has turned into an altar and lifted him up while the gods emerged around the altar, bowing toward Zhong Yue. Right away, his prowess was raised a level higher and he surged it all into the Metamagnet Divine Saber.

Energy forces rippled in and out of the divine saber in great force, the divine saber grew stronger and heavier, that even the gravitational force around was distorted.

Zhong Yue yelled and the slashed the saber toward the incoming dragon.

Xin Huo must have knew I would strengthen myself within the lightning burner, he knows that my prowess will steadily increase in the Lightning Tribulations. That's why he said I can manage 40 levels of Lightning Tribulations! If he said I can, then it means that I will surely be able to kill the first level's Leizhe dragon god!

Krong—

The Leizhe dragon god raised its claw against the saber, while Zhong Yue surged all of his power into the weapon. His muscles were even teared open with blood sprinkling to the surroundings.

Zheng—

Surprisingly enough, the Metamagnet Divine Saber has shattered the dragon claw!

But before Zhong Yue could be happy about it, two bright lightning rays were shot out from the dragon's eyes and bore through his mortal body. The impact force sent him flying backward, but he dashed forward again as soon as he landed!

Meanwhile, Xin Huo was still talking, "Do you know where does the Leizhe Clan of the eight sovereign races originate from? The first Leizhe dragon was exactly an innate god that was born from the heaven and earth; nurtured by the worshippings of livings, imbued with the wills of the heaven and earth, and comes within the lightning storms! His arrival in this world was concomitant with the birth of a galaxy, one that brims with the strongest lightnings in this universe. He stands on his own and is one of a kind. Other than him, all the other Leizhe dragon gods are either his descendants, or innate gods from the Lei Zhe Galaxy! If conditions allow, you should visit the Lei Zhe Galaxy at least once. It is a truly wonderful place to visit, its power is beyond what words can describe, you can only feel it for yourself. As long as there are livings still worshipping on the lightnings and thunders, the Lei Zhe Galaxy will grow bigger and stronger unceasingly. It's even more exciting to have the Lightning Tribulations there!"

Just as Xin Huo spoke, Zhong Yue had clashed over a hundred times with the Leizhe dragon god already.

The Leizhe dragon god was strong but still couldn't have avoided injuries, after all, it was Zhong Yue that it's fighting with!

Suddenly, Zhong Yue yelled loudly and his mortal body enlarged to over 10,000 feet tall. But with the sudden increase in size, the many wounds on his mortal body were amplified as well!

He has utilized the power of heaven and earth, it was the Heavenly Dharma level's state of extremity!

Within the Lei Zhe lightning loch, thunders rumbled even louder, and the lightnings were absorbed into his mortal body and Yuan Shen. This time, he has actively siphoned the lightning energy around to boost his strength.

His turned his mortal body to 30,000 feet tall along with the Metamagnet Divine Saber. He raised his hand and brought the 30,000 long Metamagnet Divine Saber down in a slashing motion, cleaving through the dragon scales into its body.

The dragon god opened its mouth, blasting out lightning fires, and sent Zhong Yue high up into the sky. Then, the lightning dragon clenched its claw and struck at him!

His mortal body bent like a fully drawn bow with lightning rays piercing out from the back of his body!

Zhong Yue's Heavenly Dharma state of extremity was broken away and he shrunk back into his usual size. Meanwhile, the dragon god raised its claw and poked toward his forehead, a killing blow!

Zhong Yue quickly opened his mouth, and he cast out the Nine Revolving Inner Core. The Tai Chi Force Field was opened and trapped the dragon god in it.

Roar—

But the inner core force field was placed on the verge of shattering apart in just a loud roar from the lightning dragon god,.

Zhong Yue dashed forward, he cast the Metamagnet Divine Saber and the Solar Divine Saber out. Together, the two divine sabers lunged forward like two dragons, while moving like a shear.

The shear dragons have reached to the dragon god's neck when it broke free from the inner core force field!

"Die!", arms grew out from Zhong Yue's body and he clenched on the sabers, forcing out all of his strength into the shear dragons!

Suddenly, thunders rumbled within the dragon god's mouth. Zhong Yue's skins cracked and the seven apertures of his head were trickling out blood. If it wasn't that Zhong Yue had trained for a month's time in the lightning burner, this alone could have killed him!

Muscles were falling off from his body especially his palms, they were only left with the bones.

The top of his head was cracked open, exposing his skull in barely in the air. There were also sounds of cracking coming from his body as the totem patterns on his bones were shattered.

The roarings continued, and his bones were on the verge of fracturing!

"DIE!", Zhong Yue shouted loudly, the twin sabers have finally decapitated the dragon god. Its huge head fell down and disappeared in the lightning loch.

"Did I win?", Zhong Yue was overjoyed, his arms atrophied into ashes and he fell into the lightning loch after the dragon head. He didn't even have the strength to grip on the two divine sabers anymore, the sabers were separated in mid-air and crashed some distance away from him.

Zhong Yue bathed inside the lightning loch, he allowed the lightnings to penetrate into his mortal body, scorching his muscles and nerves. 

Zhong Yue lied in the lightning loch and thought, Shame, I didn't defeat it on my own… Feng Xiaozhong… it's your skill that has truly defeated the Leizhe dragon god, it's you that won this Lightning Tribulation, not me…

"Brat Yue, you smell good.", Xin Huo leaped out, wiping slobber from his mouth as he looked at Zhong Yue's cooked body, "What a shame I am without a mortal body, I cannot eat and taste anything. How about… you let me control of your mortal body for a while and let me taste your cooked meats?"

Zhong Yue muttered something inaudible as a sign of protest while speeding up recovering his injuries.

Soon after, his mortal body was fully healed. He consumed a few pieces of divine herbs to recover his lost prowess and refine his inner core.

"Cast!"

After that, Zhong Yue cast out the two divine sabers and repair them.

"Hmm? The sabers, they feel so much lighter…", Zhong Yue clenched on the two sabers and swung them freely through the air.

Before, although he could have cast the two sabers, he still struggled to wield both of them in his hands. But now, not only that he could wield the two divine sabers in his hands, they were far too light to wield!

"Are the Golden Origin Water in them frittered away during the battle?", Zhong Yue mumbled curiously.

"No, it's you who became stronger!", Xin Huo laughed as he said, "In the Earth Order Era, the Lightning Tribulations are a means for the Fuxi cultivators to train themselves. Every level of the Lightning Tribulation means a huge improvement. Do you know why?"

Zhong Yue shook his head.

Xin Huo laughed, "This is because the Fuxi Celestial Race has the blood of Leizhe in them. You Fuxi are naturally gifted with the lightning elements in your body. The Lightning Tribulations are much like a path to death for the other races, but they are in fact, golden opportunities to awaken the Leizhe blood in them!

"You have made past the first level of Lightning Tribulation, a little part of the Leizhe blood in your Fuxi bloodline is awakened, leading to the increase in prowess and advancement in your mortal body. Of course the sabers would appear light to you now."

"I see.", Zhong Yue was dawned. He took out the copper lamp, entered the mini Six Paths Reincarnations in it, and soaked the divine sabers in the Golden Origin Water again.0

Meanwhile, Xin Huo was looking curiously at the sabers, he asked again, "Brat Yue, these two soul weapons you have forged, are they really sabers?"

"Without doubts!", Zhong Yue assured.

Xin Huo scratched his head frantically and said, "Then why can the sabers turn into the Shaohao Bell, into the altars, into the [Tai Chi Art], even the [Dragon Shears]?"

"Because of the word 'Yi'.", Zhong Yue laughed loudly. He pulled the two divine sabers away and walked out of the Six Paths Reincarnations into the Lei Zhe lightning loch. He raised his head up and saw another Lei Zhe lightning loch forming above him, while the one he was in started to disperse.

"Yi, Fuxi, changes. This is what Fuxi Haoyi has taught me. It's the same concept that can be applied to the soul weapons."

He strode into the second Lei Zhe lightning loch while saying casually, "There appears a dragon in the field, it leaps into the abyss when necessary and soars into the sky when given the opportune, but it is only the heaven that can contain it. The humans are no different than the dragons, we can change accordingly, and so are the sabers. This is, my attainments in the 'Yi' word."
