Chapter 1495: Lightning Covers the Land

Sha Guangyan, Peng Wansheng, and Ye Qingkuang had summoned all the power they had at their disposal. They couldn’t hold back at all.

Light flowed around their divine items as they attacked once more. They were intent on killing Long Chen in one breath.

Long Chen let out a furious roar, and green light soared from his scales. Wielding his saber with both hands, he charged out at the three of them.

The collisions of divine items caused the world to alternate between light and dark. As they crazily fought, the torrent of lightning exploded around them.

The people in the distance could only vaguely see four figures within the lightning. That terrifying pressure had completely twisted s.p.a.ce and made it seem like what they were seeing was illusory.

No one dared to even blink an eye. They were afraid of missing even an instant of this scene. In this kind of terrifying barrage, one of them could die at any moment.

“Long Chen’s too terrifying. If Empyreans are monsters, then Long Chen is a monster amongst monsters. He’s not at a disadvantage even one against three,” praised the white-robed elder beside Zheng Wenlong.

“Be careful. If you say the wrong thing, you might lose your life,” warned Zheng Wenlong.

The white-robed elder’s expression changed slightly. He had actually forgotten that saying the wrong thing within the domain of this tribulation could be sensed by the Heavenly Daos and invoke karma. Ye Qingkuang’s master was a good example of that.

The white-robed elder shut his mouth. He didn’t even dare to send spiritual messages and simply watched.

As for weaker experts, they couldn’t even speak under this terrifying pressure. The huge Eastern Xuan City was silent.

The four of them were crazily fighting in the lightning. Sha Guangyan and Peng Wansheng’s hearts shook. As they fought, Ye Qingkuang was growing stronger. This five-colored tribulation lightning was tempering him rapidly. He had already gained the aura of a Soul Transformation expert.

His aura was still chaotic and fluctuating, but his power was now soaring. Although he couldn’t match Long Chen, he could still manage to block him with their help.

Long Chen’s heavy attacks were all blocked by him. It was only because of Ye Qingkuang that the other two could fight against Long Chen. They thanked their luck that they had saved Ye Qingkuang back then, or without him, they wouldn’t have been able to survive.

Five-colored lightning surrounded Long Chen. It had formed a set of armor around him, preventing him from being injured by the torrent of lightning falling from the sky.

As for Sha Guangyan, Peng Wansheng, and Ye Qingkuang, they were forced to divert a part of their energy to resist the lightning.

As a result, both sides ended up having their advantages and disadvantages. They fought for a full two hours without determining a victor.

“d.a.m.nit, how can he have so much spiritual yuan?! He clearly isn’t absorbing energy from heaven and earth to replenish it!” Sha Guangyan ground his teeth.

It wasn’t just Sha Guangyan who was confused by this. Considering there were three Empyreans with their manifestations in full bloom, all the energy of heaven and earth was sucked dry by them. Long Chen couldn’t absorb energy to replenish his spiritual yuan.

His divine ring was active, but it was focused on resisting the suppression of their three manifestations. It wasn’t absorbing any energy from the world. According to reason, Long Chen’s spiritual yuan should have run dry an hour ago.

Even the three of them who were absorbing all the energy in the air were using more energy than they were replenis.h.i.+ng. They didn’t even have half their spiritual yuan left.

BOOM!

Just as the three of them were growing anxious about this, an explosive sound came from the sky. They saw that the cross-shaped crack Long Chen had cut into the sky had exploded due to some energy. It had formed a huge hole in the sky.

Countless five-colored figures began to descend from the sky. They were terrifying lightning beasts. There were drakes, phoenixes, wolves, insects, tigers, leopards, essentially anything that existed.

Flying ones, swimming ones, running ones, they were all present. Some of these were beasts that no one had ever seen or even heard of.

Each of these lightning beasts was as large as a mountain. They charged toward the four of them.

Sha Guangyan was the first to be struck. He was sent flying by Long Chen into the mouth of a lightning python.

“Break!” A roar came from within the lightning python’s mouth, and its head exploded. Sha Guangyan flew out.

However, his face was a bit pale with fright. When he had been devoured, he had entered a strange s.p.a.ce with endless lightning chains coming to bind him. If he hadn’t had a divine item to break those lightning chains, he might have been bound.

This lightning python was just one of the millions of lightning beasts that had appeared. He had almost died to just one. This five-colored lightning was truly worthy of being the legendary annihilation lightning.

They were Empyreans, and every time they underwent tribulation, the heavens would pamper them. The heavens would send down powerful but gentle lightning to expel the impurities in their bodies and make sure their advancement was as perfect as possible.

To them, heavenly tribulation was like a gentle mother. But today, it had become an evil stepmother who wanted them dead. The four of them had no choice but to focus on blocking these lightning beasts.
