Chapter 413 Equal Thunder Tribulation
Chapter 405: Equal Thunder Tribulation
[Tai Shi Shen] had no intention of refusing what [Chuan Zong] asked for.
He opened his mouth and said:
"Master, it is my disciple's duty to help you overcome the calamity. Please just give me instructions."
[Chuan Zong] immediately replied:
"You should practice here and don't leave. Wait for me to completely digest the legacy of the Ten Vajra Buddhas!"
The [Heavenly Tribulation Dragon] Dharma body of the [Chuanzong] Patriarch has almost completely devoured the remains of the great Buddha.
The flesh, blood and magic power in this relic's body had long since disappeared, leaving only a thin layer of skin.
At this time, [Chuanzong] exerted his sixth-level magic power and swallowed the remaining Buddha skin in one gulp.
Then, the fluctuations of magic power surrounding him suddenly intensified, as if endless light was shining out from his body, illuminating the surrounding space brightly.
His [Heavenly Tribulation Dragon] Dharma body seemed to have reached unprecedented perfection at this moment. Golden Buddha light flowed on the dragon scales, which was both majestic and sacred.
What this [Ten Directions Vajra Heavenly Buddha] combines is the [Vajra] Great Way. The essence of these great ways has all been transformed into precious resources for [passing on the lineage], causing its cultivation to soar again.
As his cultivation level increased, a strange sense of Dharma emanated from the [Abyss of the Great Dao].
This magical power enveloped the innate [Heavenly Tribulation] Avenue in the [Void Master Dragon Great Wall].
Gradually, this stream of Dharma profoundly changed the structure of the Great Dao of Heavenly Tribulation, added some strange things to it, and completely changed the Great Dao of Heavenly Tribulation.
And the changes brought about by these things were all added to [Chuanzong].
A tremendous and powerful disaster has come!
In the [Qintian Hall], calamity energy was overflowing, and the newly appointed Shenxiao [Tribulation Ancestor] was also able to sense it immediately!
The calamity energy enveloped the body, and disasters occurred. The calamity energy caused by these changes and the sixth-order [Heavenly Tribulation] magic power possessed by the real person [Chuanzong] were born from the same source and were extremely similar.
For Chuanzong, a powerful being who plays with fate, this calamity energy is the source of his magical powers.
When the calamity energy came, it immediately revealed its true form as the [Heavenly Tribulation Dragon] and tried to devour and control the newly generated calamity energy.
For a moment, the surging sixth-order magic power fluctuations flowed through the [Qintian Temple].
[Tai Shi Shen] hid in a corner of this cave, holding up the [Tai Su Zhan Yun Banner] and [Yuqing Tai Su Yuanshi Qing Yun], and exerted his strongest defensive magic to the maximum to resist the chaotic invasion of magic power.
Suddenly, an extremely thick black bolt of lightning emerged from nowhere and struck the [Heavenly Tribulation Dragon] fiercely.
The power of this thunder is extremely strong. It is the genuine magic power of the Taoist Ancestor, a sixth-level thunder tribulation!
When it struck [Chuanzong], it immediately chopped the sixth-level Taoist into pieces!
That nearly eternal sixth-order Dharma body couldn't even withstand this thunder!
[Heavenly Tribulation] Daozu was injured by the heavenly tribulation. How bizarre it was, and it was also beyond the expectation of [Tai Shi Shen]!
He became even more cautious, and tried his best to gather his own magical power, compressing his protective measures again and again to conceal his body!
I’m afraid of provoking this terrifying sixth-order thunder!
Although [Tai Shi Shen] possesses two great defensive treasures, the Banner and the Qingyun, ordinary [Pillar] cultivators cannot break his defense.
But this black lightning far exceeded his endurance limit!
At this moment, [Chuan Zong] suddenly let out a long roar and said:
"Yuanchu, take out all your protective measures and help me receive the thunder!"
"Help me survive the disaster!"
What's going on?
Want to strike me with lightning?
[Yuanchu] was quite surprised by the requirement of [passing on the clan lineage] and didn't understand its true meaning!
But out of trust in his ancestor, he also made sufficient preparations and tried his best to deal with the thunder tribulation.
And the next second, another thick purple-black thunder appeared.
This bolt of lightning did not strike towards [Chuanzong], but followed the connection of luck and struck towards [Tai Shishen] who was huddled in the corner of the cave!
As for the escape technique of [Taishi Body], if one uses it with all his strength, he can actually avoid this thunder in time.
However, since he had been given the mission of [Inheriting the Family Lineage], he could only hold up his own defense and resist with all his might.
The thick purple-black lightning, like a punishment from heaven, fiercely penetrated Tai Shi's body.
The [Yuqing Taisu Yuanshi Qingyun], which contains the [Taisu Zhanyun Banner] and is extremely solid in nature, is enough to withstand the bombardment of thunder and will not be injured.
However, the power of the thunder was too strong. It pressed against Qingyun and hammered Taishi's body into the center of the cave, nearly ten miles away, and almost buried him alive.
The lightning that [Tai Shi Shen] experienced was far less powerful than the sixth-order divine lightning that injured [Chuan Zong].
This bolt of lightning only had the power of the peak of [Pillar] and did not exceed the upper limit of the defense of [Yuqing Taisu Original Celebration Cloud].
Therefore, although he was unable to dodge and was hit quite badly, he was unharmed.
But when [Tai Shi Body] just flew out of the center of the earth, another thick bolt of lightning suddenly struck him head-on and hammered him into the cave again.
Before he could catch his breath, the third bolt of lightning came and struck again!
For a moment, thunder continued to strike, as if a terrifying bridge of thunder was built between heaven and earth.
[Tai Shi Shen] didn't know when the thunder would strike, so he simply stopped struggling and lay obediently in the center of the earth, silently enduring the bombardment of the thunder.
[Tai Shi Shen] Under the continuous bombardment of thunder, it was like a small boat in the wind, or like a salted fish on the chopping board.
For some reason, a feeling of nostalgia came over me.
To be honest, being struck by lightning is a traditional skill of the thunder magic practitioners of the Shenxiao Palace.
For any Divine Thunder Cultivator who has managed to achieve enlightenment, the number of times he has struck others with lightning is definitely less than the number of times he has been struck by lightning himself.
At this moment, when [Tai Shi Body] was bombarded by this thunder tribulation, he actually felt for a moment that he had returned to the second or third stage, and was actually quite relaxed.
He did not have any of the tension and fear that other cultivators experienced during the thunder tribulation, and he even seemed to enjoy it a bit!
However, this enjoyment only lasted for two hours before it completely disappeared!
This terrifying thunder of the fifth-level [Pillar] comes every thirty to fifty seconds, with no sign of stopping or weakening!
After being hacked by Yan so many times, [Tai Shi Shen] also felt the pressure increasing!
Each of these thunderbolts is a full-force attack at the peak level of [Pillar]!
Even with the extremely strong defense of [Tai Shi Body], it still requires a considerable amount of mana to resist it.
If other fifth-rank cultivators were to try, they would probably not be able to withstand a few strikes and would perish on the spot. He saw that the thunder tribulation showed no signs of stopping, so he further increased his mana output, withstood the bombardment of thunder, flew out of the cave, and landed beside the founder of the [Chuanzong].
His own [Jie Zu] was quietly regulating his breathing, recovering from the wound caused by the lightning.
[Yuanchu] couldn't help but said:
"Ancestor!"
Boom! A bolt of thunder!
"What on earth is this thunder tribulation?"
Boom, another thunder!
"What exactly is the charter?"
Boom boom boom!
[Yuanchu] was bathed in this crazy thunder bombardment. Every thunder bombardment made him take a break, making it difficult for him to even speak normally.
After hearing the difficult question asked by [Yuanchu] and watching him being struck by lightning, [Chuanzong] felt quite embarrassed.
In essence, his own disciple was suffering for him.
It just opened its mouth and said:
"My calamity of unity with the Dao, which originates from the Great Dao of Heavenly Tribulation, has a great restraining effect on me."
"This calamity is called [Equality Calamity], and its effect is also quite strange."
"Under this [Equal Tribulation], I call upon the power of the innate [Heavenly Tribulation] to inflict disasters on others, amplifying the power of their disasters, and it will backfire on me equally."
“If it were inflicted upon me, the power of this backlash would be the peak sixth-order [World-destroying Thunder Suppression]. Even with the power I devoured from the Buddha, I would not be able to completely resist it.”
"I was struck by a bolt of lightning and it took me a long time to digest and recover. I couldn't fight continuously."
"Fortunately, this terrifying calamity energy has some power that I can control."
"I can use the connection of luck to transfer this terrible disaster away."
"If you were to bear the power of this thunder tribulation for me, then the power of this thunder tribulation would be reduced to the limit of your cultivation."
"Considering your cultivation level, the power of this [Pillar]-level lightning strike is still bearable."
"You can carry it for me for a while until I recover from the injury."
The ancestor of [Chuanzong] calculated accurately. In this Shenxiao Palace, the only one who can easily block the [Pillar] thunder tribulation is [Yuanchu].
Therefore, he had already reserved [Yuan Chu] to take the blame for him.
Then, Chuan Zong spoke again:
"Back then, when I was promoted to the sixth-rank Dao Ancestor, I made a great wish to specifically target the cultivation and calamity of all the cultivators of all ranks in the entire Lingshan Temple system."
"Now, in the [Lingshan] temple system, no matter what kind of Buddhist monks they are, or even mortals, they will encounter huge thunder disasters blocking their way during their practice."
"The entire Lingshan Temple system is vast, with a large population, and the number of these cultivators is difficult to count. At any given time, there are countless cultivators who are undergoing promotion."
"And I have countless thunders blocking my way, enough to slow down the cultivation process of the entire [Lingshan] temple system."
"Even the disasters of the six-level great Buddhas can be affected by me, adding a lot of power."
“However, under that [Equal Tribulation], all the thunder tribulations imposed on the [Spiritual Mountain] cultivators will be equally reflected on my head, and the power will be increased to the level of the sixth-order [World-annihilating Thunder Town].”
"Now, I already owe this [Equal Tribulation] 1.2 million [World-Destroying Thunder Suppressions]."
"If I rely on my own abilities to avoid this [Equality Tribulation], I feel that it is impossible."
"I can only let you digest it for me first."
[Inheriting the Lineage] The ancestor's voice was faintly visible amid the roar of thunder, as if he was chanting some ancient spell, or guiding the power between heaven and earth.
As he groaned, the originally violent and chaotic thunder began to show a strange pattern, as if being pulled by an invisible line, and falling one by one precisely on the location of [Tai Shi Shen].
It was only thanks to Chuan Zong's understanding of the path of luck and the path of disaster that it was able to transfer the thunder disaster to at this critical moment. Hearing this, Yuan Chu couldn't help but ask again:
"Master, why don't you transfer this thunder to Master [Peng Hua]?"
"He is practicing the innate great way of thunder and lightning, and his control over thunder and lightning is far superior to mine!"
"If it is handed over to him, with his ability, he should be able to deal with even a level six thunder attack!"
In response to Yuanchu's request, Chuanzong shook his head slightly and explained:
"Although your ancestor [Peng Hua] has the innate [Thunder] avenue and his control over thunder and lightning is unmatched, his avenue is fundamentally different from my [Heavenly Tribulation] avenue."
"My [Equality Tribulation] is a special disaster based on the [Heavenly Tribulation] avenue. Its backlash force needs to be shared by beings who are also involved in the [Heavenly Tribulation] avenue in order to reduce my burden."
“Although you haven’t directly merged with the Great Dao of Heavenly Tribulation, as a disciple of the Divine Sky Palace, you practice thunder magic and have a destiny connected to mine, so you can bear this thunder tribulation for me.”
“And that Thunder Ancestor [Peng Hua], whose cultivation is at a higher level, has completely avoided the disaster of the Hedao. He can be said to be free from disasters and troubles, but he is unable to share the burden with me!”
"If not, why should I make things difficult for you?"
[Chuanzong] This terrifying disaster of Hedao is also powerful beyond imagination.
If it really had to digest this horrific thunder tribulation on its own, it would be completely unable to do so. The only way out is to transform it into Taoism.
"Although this calamity is dangerous, it is also a necessary step on my path of cultivation. Once I survive this calamity, my cultivation will surely reach a higher level, which will be of great benefit to my Shenxiao Palace and you."
"Just be patient and resist. If you can't bear it anymore, just tell me directly."
After saying this, the founder of [Chuanzong] closed his eyes and concentrated, and began to repair his own injuries with all his strength. At the same time, he guided the power of the thunder tribulation and transferred it to [Yuanchu] continuously through the connection of luck.
[Yuan Chu] gritted his teeth, used all his strength to activate his magic power, maintained his defensive abilities, and resisted the continuous bombardment of thunder and lightning.
At this moment, the voice of ancestor Peng Hua came from the side:
"Yuanchu, I will teach you the Thunder Ancestor Seal, a secret technique that I discovered after I merged with the Dao."
"With the help of this [Thunder Ancestor Seal], you can try to use the power of this thunder tribulation to further refine your own magic power."
"My [Thunder Ancestor Seal] is the prototype of [Suppression Law], and it is also the highest inheritance of my Shenxiao Palace's Thunder Law."
"With your qualifications, you should be able to master it quickly."
After the Grandmaster finished speaking, a beam of magical power entered directly into Yuanchu’s mind.
In an instant, he fell into a new round of seclusion.
