Chapter 1097

Gu Yang’s aura rose to a new level . The runes around him began to charge against the heavenly tribulation .

This was a provocation, a defiant action . It was a kind of contempt for the Heavenly Daos . In the view of outsiders, such action was pure suicide .

But Long Chen had to make sure each warrior of the Dragonblood Legion had the courage to fight against the heavens . Otherwise, there was no way for them to cultivate a heart that would never waver .

The Dragonblood warriors had long since grown accustomed to this, treating heavenly tribulation like it was nothing . Compared to the heavens, they revered Long Chen far more . In their eyes, Long Chen was even stronger than the heavens .

The heavens only gave them an ordinary body, ordinary talent, and an ordinary fate . But Long Chen had changed everything about them . They were full of reverence and grat.i.tude toward Long Chen .

Furthermore, after fighting for so many years, they had long since grown accustomed to this kind of style of being unafraid of heaven and earth . Under the Dragonblood warriors’ guidance, the Dragonmark warriors also began to toss aside their understanding of cultivation and fight against the Heavenly Daos alongside them .

The Dragonmark warriors had trod the line between life and death several times now . Their wills were firm enough, but they still possessed an innate reverence for the Heavenly Daos and didn’t dare to fight back . What Long Chen wanted was to temper their wills .

Rumbling filled the world as the lightning tribulation continued . Everyone could sense a kind of anger . The heavens were angry and wanted to destroy them .

All the Dragonmark warriors were pale, their hearts almost leaping out of their bodies . That wasn’t because they lacked courage, but because of the terror that formed in the depths of their souls .

As for the wood cultivators, they were even more terrified . The pressure coming from the heavens made it so they didn’t even dare to move . They were relying entirely on the others to block the lightning tribulation .

The lightning was still growing stronger . The lightning swords transformed to become lightning spears and then lightning hammers that grew bigger and bigger . After two hours, the lightning hammers were several meters long . When they smashed into the Dragonmark warriors, they coughed up blood .

On the other hand, the Dragonblood warriors were still fine . That was the difference . Although they were both rank four Celestials, the Dragonblood warriors’ physical bodies were several times stronger than the Dragonmark warriors’ . That was the difference created by experiencing bitter tribulations several times .

“Not bad, but do you think this is enough? Are you going to collapse just because of this?” Long Chen frowned at the pale Dragonmark warriors .

“Boss, we can keep going!” cried a Dragonmark warrior with an ashamed expression .

They all saw that while it felt like their combat power was rapidly catching up to the Dragonblood warriors, making it so they felt like they weren’t much weaker, this tribulation revealed that there was still a large gap between them and the Dragonblood warriors .

“I don’t want you to keep going, I want you to attack! What are you afraid of? Didn’t I already say that if the heavens collapse, I will hold them up? Go all-out attacking! No defending at all!” shouted Long Chen .

The Dragonmark warriors were still in defensive postures despite now daring to fight back . Nevertheless, they didn’t dare to take the initiative to attack .

But hearing this, they clenched their teeth . If they died, then they died . It was time to go all-out .

The Dragonmark warriors took on an att.i.tude as though they had accepted that they would die today . They unleashed all their power, attacking the lightning . But after just the first attack, they found that the weather seemed to have improved . Enduring the lightning also became easier .

“Gu Yang, continue,” said Long Chen .

Gu Yang walked the path of a body cultivator . His aura was the strongest, and heavenly tribulation loved that aura the most . So Gu Yang’s provocation was the most effective .

The lightning tribulation was unleas.h.i.+ng lightning based on Gu Yang’s cultivation base . As a result, those rank four Celestials were unlucky . They were enduring the tribulation of a rank five Celestial .

But as everyone went all-out attacking, any lightning that appeared would be instantly blown apart, and the resulting lightning runes filled the air . A sea of lightning runes had piled up . Bathed within those lightning runes, everyone felt their bodies being purified and strengthened .

The wood cultivators were also bathed in the lightning runes . Although they didn’t need to bear any attacks, they found that they were starting to become unable to bear it . They felt like they were about to die .

Suddenly, a lightning chain flew out, pulling them out . Those wood cultivators flew to Long Chen’s side .

Once they were beside Long Chen, they suddenly found that the terrifying thunderforce surrounding them was isolated . They relaxed, and as a result, they collapsed on the ground .

A huge lightning dragon swam around Long Chen . The lightning attacks falling toward Long Chen were all devoured by it . It was like a giant umbrella, protecting all of them .

“Many thanks, senior apprentice-brother Long Chen . ”

Those wood cultivators felt so emotional that they were about to cry . Just now, they really had felt like they were about to die .

“You still have some remaining thunderforce in your bodies . Don’t blindly dispel it . All objects have things that restrain them and things that boost them . Thunderforce restrains you because of your wood attribute, but it can also be beneficial . Use it to provoke your wood attribute original runes . When they sense the danger, they will instinctively draw out your spiritual yuan to strengthen themselves, allowing them to grow an extra time . This is an opportunity the heavens have bestowed only to you, so don’t waste it,” said Long Chen .
