Chapter 739: Crushing Pressure (1/2)

~shua~shua~shua~

The embers sped up, and soon it was as if a tide of embers was drowning King Hong. In less than three seconds, the man was completely covered in embers and looked like a flowing red man without any features.

Adviser Liu didn't know if this was good, but in the current situation, he could only think bad. His heart shuddered, and he just hoped that some miracle would happen.

~Crack~

All of a sudden, a resounding crack was heard and King Hong's fist, that had been frozen in one place started to move.

”It's… it's rising!” Hua Wu Shouted.

~Huala~

The aura of King Hong appeared again, but this time, it had transformed. Previously, the dauntlessness in his aura was like a secondary factor, but now it seemed to have fully assimilated within it.

”BEGONE!” King Hong's voice echoed.

~BOOM~

The tribulation bolt was forcefully dissipated by the King and it disappeared.

~shua~

Wind started to stir as the spirit Qi in the air became volatile.

”Wha-what's happening?” Hua Wu was concerned.

”Are… are the tribulation clouds angry?” Hua San was in a similar state.

”No,” It was at this time that Lin Mu spoke.

”It's time…” Lin Mu muttered.

~HONGLONG~

The spirit Qi in the air started stirring as a vortex formed above the King. Since the fire attribute spirit Qi was concentrated and was present in the highest amount, the air was tinted fire red.

The spirit Qi started to pour into King Hong at a rapid pace as his cultivation base rose.

~KACHA~

An audible crack was heard and the moment it did, a heavy pressure exuded from King Hong's body.

”HE BROKE THROUGH!” Hua Wu exclaimed.

”Qiqiang broke through…. QIQIANG BROKE THROUGH!!!” Adviser Liu said out loud with joy.

But this was merely the start of the change. The pressure exuding from the man kept on increasing and soon it reached a state where it was getting uncomfortable for Hua San, Hua Wu and Adviser Liu.

Seconds passed by and after about two minutes, it was hard for them to even breath.

”This… ugh…” Hua Wu grunted in slight pain.

Lin Mu was the only one who was fine in all this and noticed their state. King Hong's aura was still increasing and he had already broken through to the Nascent soul realm. But the spirit Qi infusion was far from over.

”Come over to my side!” Lin Mu called.

The three men heard him and hesitated since they were supposed to be Dharma protectors.

”Come on, your work is over. If you stay there, you will just get injured.” Lin Mu spoke again.

They nodded their heads and went over to Lin Mu in the next second.

~shua~

Lin Mu took out the formation array controlling plate and tapped on it a few times. Hundreds of runes appeared in the air in the next moment as the entire formation array was revealed.

”Let me make it a bit more accommodating.” Lin Mu said before waving his hands in the air.

Runes started to fly around and arranged themselves into a different format. The Tribulation attenuation formation had already been broken earlier due to the increased power of the Tribulation and thus Lin Mu was basically recycling the remnants.

While his skill was not enough to make a tribulation attenuation formation on his own, he did have enough skill to remake it into something of a defensive formation. Tribulation attenuation formations fell into a defensive category of formations any way and the complexity only came from the fact that they needed to process tribulation lightning.
