Chapter 142: Making the Examiner of the Divine Throne Trial Feel Threatened Once Again

Directly threaten the examiner?

Qian Yunhe couldn't help but sigh inwardly — young people these days were truly remarkable! The next moment, she received the notification that the fourth trial was complete.

"I can undergo divine rank condensation now!"

Qian Yunhe said with considerable excitement.

After waiting so long, she could finally become a god.

Even though it felt a bit unreal — less than ten minutes in total, speed-clearing all four trials!

And the one who helped her reach this point was merely a level 300 professional.

A professional who hadn't even completed six advancements had helped her speed-clear a Mid God's divine inheritance trial in ten minutes!

That sounded fantastical just hearing it.

But that was the truth.

For the divine rank condensation, Lu Zheng simply gave her a Mid God's divine core, plus the effect of the 'Divine Power Blessing' skill.

Two hours later, Qian Yunhe successfully inherited the divine throne of the Mid God 'God of the Forest'!

With this, the Daxia Alliance finally had a presentable fighting force besides the High God Wu Tuohai.

At least for now, a fighting force at the Mid God level was still quite decent.

After completing the divine inheritance, Lu Zheng sensed that the eight Zerg Evil Gods' divine kingdom dungeons had already been fully cleared.

He checked the quest progress.

Out of a hundred billion kill targets, the completion count had reached twenty-four billion — just barely a quarter.

Still quite a ways off!

Just as Lu Zheng was considering whether to return to the Insect Nest Plane to taunt Sandra into intensifying her invasion of this world, he suddenly received a message from Wu Tuohai.

'Urgent! Come to the 【Endless Thundercloud】 dungeon!'

Nowadays, there was only one thing that could make Wu Tuohai seek his aid — Xuanyuan Wuji's Thunder God trial had encountered danger.

Without hesitation, Lu Zheng immediately teleported to the 【Endless Thundercloud】 dungeon located in the East Sea.

This dungeon did not belong to the Daxia Alliance; strictly speaking, it didn't belong to any place at all.

Basically no one would enter it.

On one hand, it was above the East Sea, very far away; on the other, the thunder inside was extremely terrifying — anyone below Saint level who entered would meet only one fate.

Reduced to ash by the thunder! Only Saint-level professionals would venture inside to search for treasures or slay monsters.

And this wretched place was the trial dungeon for the Main God-level divine throne, the Thunder God.

To be precise, the true trial ground was the dungeon's core area — within the thundercloud storm.

Truthfully, Lu Zheng had not anticipated an accident in Xuanyuan Wuji's inheritance trial.

He felt everything should have gone smoothly.

After all, they had dispatched the current sole strongest force — the High God Wu Tuohai — to help Xuanyuan Wuji with the divine inheritance.

Especially since Wu Tuohai was a subordinate god directly under the Thunder God, wielding the power of thunder — he should absolutely be able to help Xuanyuan Wuji pass all the trial contents.

A Main God-level inheritance trial consisted of seven stages in total.

The first six had indeed been passed very smoothly with Wu Tuohai's help.

But the seventh — the final one — even Wu Tuohai was powerless.

One could even say that precisely because of his involvement, this final trial had become nearly impossible to complete.

Lu Zheng rushed quickly into the thundercloud storm and saw Wu Tuohai. "What exactly is the situation?"

Lu Zheng asked rapidly.

Wu Tuohai hurriedly replied:

"The seventh trial's content is to endure the test of thunder striking the crown. Starting from level 400 energy intensity, all the way up to the highest level that can be sensed within the thundercloud storm. In other words, because of my involvement, the highest-level thunder strike test was raised to level 788! One bolt per level — at level 700 and above, I can take at most forty-some strikes before my divine core would shatter."

"Even though I am a deity who controls thunder, this Main God-level thunder is far too high-level. I can reduce some of the thunder power's destructiveness, but I can't tank it head-on."

Lu Zheng laughed upon hearing this:

"So you're this certain I can tank it?"

Seeing Lu Zheng's nonchalant demeanor, Wu Tuohai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and laughed as well.

"You definitely can't tank it, but that Kui Ox summon beast of yours certainly can. It's a divine beast with a thousand percent affinity for thunder — I told you it was more suited to inherit the Thunder God's throne! Alright, the thunder has already reached level 447 now. Hurry up and release it, let it go in and tank a few!"

But Lu Zheng shook his head and said, "That would be too wasteful. I'll tank it myself! Actually, I can tank it too!"

As his words fell, Lu Zheng flew directly above Xuanyuan Wuji's head.

"Senior, leave the rest to me!"

Lu Zheng said calmly.

Upon seeing Lu Zheng appear, Xuanyuan Wuji didn't harbor the slightest worry that Lu Zheng couldn't handle it — he simply breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed onto the ground.

"I knew you kid could definitely do it — it's in your hands now!"

Seeing this state, Lu Zheng seriously suspected that this old fellow had already found himself a young, pretty girl beforehand and overexerted himself.

How did he look so wilted!? Wasn't getting struck by lightning a few dozen times quite exhilarating! Lu Zheng thought about it, then directly transformed, taking the form of the Kui Ox, and flew toward the eye of the thundercloud storm — the very place where the thunder descended.

Because he felt it wasn't satisfying enough.

As for the transformation, it was to better absorb this energy.

This involved the issue of passive skill trigger priority.

If Lu Zheng maintained human form, the first priority was the passive 'Death Evasion,' which directly eliminated half of the thunder energy.

The second priority was the skill 'Mana Annihilation,' which absorbed even the remaining half of the energy entirely.

The third priority was the comprehensive Super Armor skill — namely, the spell damage reduction effect.

Even if thunder at level 600 or 700 later descended and could break through Mana Annihilation's effect, the remaining energy would mostly be blocked by the Super Armor.

The energy absorbed by Lu Zheng using the Thunder Marsh Domain skill was too little! But now, after Lu Zheng transformed into the One-legged Ox, all One-legged Ox skills have increased priority.

The first triggered passive was the Thunder Marsh Domain, so Lu Zheng could convert all thunder energy into his own! And as Lu Zheng quickly approached the eye of the thundercloud storm, that thing seemed to suddenly sense danger, beginning to rapidly and continuously release thunder.

Starting from the previous 448 level, over a hundred bolts were released in a single breath.

Although the thunder energy caused no harm to Lu Zheng, its repulsive force halted his upward ascent momentum.

The thunder that surged to 574 level didn't kill Lu Zheng; the thundercloud storm continued to go crazy!

Again, over a hundred bolts of thunder were released in a single breath, the highest level reaching 689, which is the attack strength of Peak Mid God level! Lu Zheng continued to fly upward.

The highest level, 788, the final bolt of thunder fell.

Lu Zheng still wanted to go up and have a look.

At that moment, a baby face actually condensed on top of the thundercloud.

It fiercely said: 'The assessment is already over! Don't come near me again!!'

Lu Zheng once again made the examiner of the Divine Throne Assessment feel a huge threat! Thanks for support! (End of chapter)
