Chapter 619: Dual Heavenly Tribulation

"I never expected this guy to be so powerful; he can actually unleash such a defensive divine ability with his bare hands!"

Qiongqi poked its head out from one of Zhang Nuo's shoulders, its eyes filled with shock! If it were Zhang Nuo before he had fused the Nine Divine Seas, it would have been impossible for him to produce a defense using only cultivation techniques!

"Even if he can produce a defense, I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand the power of the Heavenly Tribulation. Master, do you really want to let the Wolf King perish?"

Xuanjin also poked its head out from the other side of Zhang Nuo's shoulder, looking at Zhang Nuo with a suspicious expression.

"Let him suffer a bit first to reduce some of the power on him; otherwise, we won't have any chance at all while the Wolf King is at his peak!"

With his gaze never leaving the Wolf King, Zhang Nuo said indifferently.

At this moment, the celestial phenomena changed abruptly. Ten thousand bolts of thunder fell from the sky, and the white lightning that tore through the firmament instantly shattered the defense the Wolf King had set up!

"Human brat! Why don't you come over and help!"

This was only the first bolt of heavenly thunder, yet its power was already this great. The Wolf King had barely managed to resist it, but the second wave of attacks would be even more violent than this one. Even if he were to use his previous defensive methods, it would be impossible for him to withstand it!

Zhang Nuo watched the Wolf King with an expressionless face, as if all of this had nothing to do with him!

Boom!

The second wave of heavenly thunder descended. This time, there was no suspense at all. The Wolf King let out a heart-wrenching roar, and his entire body was struck by the heavenly thunder! In the end, he couldn't even maintain his human form and reverted directly to his original shape!

"Awoo!"

A wolf howl filled with fury rang out. The long fur on the two-headed Wolf King's body stood on end, and the four extremely long canine teeth extending from his mouth flashed with a soul-chilling cold light! A pair of resentful eyes stared fixedly at Zhang Nuo! Just as he was about to say something, another bolt of heavenly thunder suddenly descended!

This time there was no suspense at all; the two-headed Wolf King was blasted to the ground. His massive body was like a pile of mud, his four limbs scratching at the ground incessantly!

"Is it time yet?"

Seeing this scene, Qiongqi was terrified that the Wolf King might perish!

"Don't be impatient. If he died so easily, he wouldn't be worthy of being the Wolf King!"

Zhang Nuo remained motionless, his hands behind his back, watching the dying two-headed Wolf King on the ground!

When the fourth wave of heavenly thunder fell, the two-headed Wolf King indeed reacted a little. However, this time, a charred smell began to emanate from the Wolf King's body. His lifeless eyes looked at Zhang Nuo with resentment, and a trace of longing actually appeared!

However, Zhang Nuo did not make a move and still stood to the side watching, seemingly not concerned with his life or death at all!

Boom!

Amidst a bolt of heavenly thunder, countless heavenly fires fell. In an instant, the area around the two-headed Wolf King turned into a sea of fire. The raging flames reduced everything around the ground to ashes; even the stones were not spared!

This time, a cold sneer appeared at the corner of Zhang Nuo's mouth. It seemed the Spirit Power within the Wolf King should be nearly exhausted. If one more strike were to come, he might truly perish!

Thinking of this, he took a step forward with one foot, and in an instant, his entire person appeared right in front of the Wolf King. With a light flick of his robe sleeve, a five-colored glow enveloped the Wolf King and brought him back into his body!

"Hell Butterfly! Immediately devour the part of the Wolf King that has not fused with my soul. Be quick, otherwise, we won't be able to do anything once this guy recovers his strength!"

"Yes, Master!"

A low chirp came from within his body; the Hell Butterfly could fully accomplish this. At this moment, the two-headed Wolf King was floating quietly in Zhang Nuo's dantian. The milky-white soul on his body was drawn out by the Hell Butterfly, and then the little fellow opened its mouth slightly, devouring the soul bit by bit!

Having taken the Wolf King back into his body, the subsequent Heavenly Tribulation would naturally fall upon Zhang Nuo! He raised his head to look at the sky composed of raging flames and lightning. With a movement of his Divine Sense, his Flying Sword and numerous Magic Treasures flashed out of his body simultaneously! Without anyone to guard him, it was indeed somewhat dangerous for him to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation alone!

But now, Zhang Nuo had no other choice! After a few waves of the Heavenly Tribulation, the Magic Treasures in front of Zhang Nuo had all become dim and lusterless. He frowned; at this rate, he might perish before all the Heavenly Tribulations were finished!

Looking inward, he saw that the Hell Butterfly was still carefully separating the soul of the two-headed Wolf King that had not fused with Zhang Nuo's soul! This was a delicate task; even if Zhang Nuo was anxious, there was no way to rush it!

After a few more waves of the Heavenly Tribulation, Zhang Nuo's body was also struck by the residual heavenly thunder several times. However, given the toughness of his physical body, these minor injuries meant nothing! What truly made him feel fear was that the power of these few bolts of heavenly thunder was clearly much greater than before, even giving him a feeling of being doubled!

This was not a good thing. Because the two-headed Wolf King had been trapped in an underground cavern, the Heavenly Tribulation had not appeared. After such a long time, it was normal for him to be struck by the Heavenly Tribulation as soon as he came out. However, Zhang Nuo's Heavenly Tribulation was also supposed to appear during this period. In other words, once the power of the two Heavenly Tribulations merged, the consequences would be severe!

Things were developing in a direction Zhang Nuo did not want to see. After receiving a few more waves of the Heavenly Tribulation, he finally confirmed this point in his heart!

When the Heavenly Tribulation reached one-fourth of its progress, the thunder pillars descending from the sky were as thick as several dozen zhang. Such immense power was something even a cultivator at the Late Void Refinement Stage might not be able to withstand! Judging by the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, it had even climbed from a Five-Nine Middle Heavenly Tribulation to a Seven-Nine Great Heavenly Tribulation!

His heart turned over abruptly! Zhang Nuo gritted his teeth slightly! Man proposes, but Heaven disposes; in the end, the two Heavenly Tribulations had merged into one!

With a flip of both hands, several Array Disks appeared. Zhang Nuo did not hesitate at all to activate them all. Countless rays of light were seen shrouding the region within a hundred miles. On the other hand, Zhang Nuo let out a low shout. The space behind his body constantly twisted and deformed. After a few transformations, a Divine Sense vision appeared!

Bright Moonlight Essence, heaven-defying Spiritual Qi, and the phantom images of the Four Great True Spirit Sacred Beasts looked full of power! At this moment, the heavenly fire in the sky rolled for a while, transformed into the appearance of an ancient strange beast, and dove down toward Zhang Nuo!

Within the Divine Sea vision, ten thousand rays of Moonlight Essence shot into the sky. The holy and gentle light contained immense power, and it instantly collided with the ancient strange beast transformed from the heavenly fire!

After a loud boom, the two turned into countless rays of spiritual light and scattered in mid-air! After this strike, Zhang Nuo felt a bit more confident; at least with the Divine Sea vision, he could hold on for a while longer!

Three days later, ten thousand miles away from where Zhang Nuo was undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation, several cultivators stopped in mid-air, but not a single one dared to approach! The lowest cultivation among these people was at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, and the highest had advanced to the Golden Core Middle Stage.

This was the first time they had seen a Heavenly Tribulation with such immense power!

"Fellow Daoist Sun, in your opinion, what level is this Heavenly Tribulation?"

An old man wearing a gray robe, whose cultivation was only at the Spirit Severing Late Stage, asked a middle-aged man in a green robe beside him after looking up at the sky for a while.

"According to my judgment, this Heavenly Tribulation should have the power of a Seven-Nine Great Heavenly Tribulation!"

The green-robed man, who was also at the Spirit Severing Late Stage, seemed to have more knowledge than the old man. After pondering for a moment, he spoke slowly!

"A Seven-Nine Great Heavenly Tribulation!"

Many of the surrounding cultivators shifted their gazes to the green-robed man!

"Fellow Daoist Sun, could it be that the one undergoing the tribulation here is a senior at the Great Accomplishment Stage?"

"That's right! Otherwise, how could a Great Heavenly Tribulation appear?"

The voices of the crowd discussing grew louder and louder. The green-robed man ignored them and pointed to the celestial phenomena in the distance, saying:

"Fellow Daoists, have you ever seen the Heavenly Tribulation of a Refining Void Stage cultivator that would appear this terrifying? The heavenly thunder has almost condensed into a solid form, and the heavenly fire is also very blinding. I believe I am not mistaken!"

The green-robed man was very confident! He said this, noncommittal toward the questioning voices around him.

"According to what Fellow Daoist Sun said, if the cultivator undergoing the tribulation here is really at the Great Accomplishment Stage, then who could it be?"

At this time, a cultivator wearing a yellow Daoist robe on the side asked.

"This, Sun does not know. The current Immortal Domain is full of hidden talents; even if one or two people have advanced to the Great Accomplishment Stage, it is possible!"

"Could it be Lord Human Emperor? It is rumored that this Lord Human Emperor advanced to the Refining Void Stage in just a few hundred years!"

Another middle-aged cultivator said tentatively.

"That shouldn't be! Even if Lord Human Emperor's talent is extraordinary, it is impossible to advance to the Great Accomplishment Stage in such a short time!"

The man surnamed Sun shook his head slightly!

Just at this moment, at the place where Zhang Nuo was undergoing his Heavenly Tribulation, ten thousand bolts of lightning flashed in the sky, and a pillar of light several miles thick, formed by the condensation of heavenly fire and heavenly lightning, plummeted down! That terrifying momentum was as if the sky itself had collapsed! Even cultivators standing ten thousand miles away felt their scalps go numb!

Some people even cried out in alarm!

Boom!

When the pillar of light descended, the earth shook, and a powerful shockwave leveled the ground for thousands of miles around Zhang Nuo! Even some mountain peaks were reduced to nothingness! Let alone any living creatures!

"This... what level of Heavenly Tribulation is this?"

After witnessing this scene, an old man's face changed in shock, and it took him a long time to utter a single sentence!

The cultivators nearby had the same doubts in their hearts; judging by the force of that strike just now, it possessed the power of at least an eighth or ninth Great Heavenly Tribulation. If these people dared to approach, they might be blasted into smithereens by the residual power of the Heavenly Tribulation!

Zhang Nuo sat cross-legged on the ground, a trail of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. As the number of Heavenly Tribulations increased, he felt more and more that something was wrong. With every Heavenly Tribulation that fell, the power of the tribulation seemed to be climbing; judging by this last strike, it was already far beyond what he could withstand!
