Chapter 277 - 230 : Celestial Tribulation (1/2)

Arthur nodded to Curtis and shook his body, causing the chains around him to emit clicking noises before they finally broke. It was a very easy process since they have been weakened for a long time now and he has been holding them off from shattering.

If it was any other creature, no matter how powerful they are, breaking the chains isn't doable, only the victim of them is able to get rid of them.

”*sigh*... this is but the beginning, you don't even know the amount of trouble you brought onto yourself.”

The copy wasn't particularly pleased about Arthur's actions, from his point of view, the downsides of breaking the chains far outweigh the advantages.

The damnable chains that have been bugging Arthur were finally released, they began falling to the flaming abyss only to be swallowed by a small spatial tear that appeared out of nowhere.

This spatial tear was the beginning of the storm, thousands upon thousands of spatial tears appeared all around Arthur, clear some of the dark fog and causing the weather to become gloomier than ever before and much more turbulent, much like the South of the Underworld.

In just a few seconds, the dark fog, which was supposed to be resistant against all types of attacks, was totally gone as it was absorbed by the countless spatial tears which stretched to all corners of Astria.

Fortunately, their power was severely reduced the further they were from the source, Arthur, so the damage they caused to the other continent is very minimal, almost negligible.

The area around Arthur, Curtis, and the three Divine Beasts became clear for ten seconds before ominous dark clouds clustered above them with sounds of the thunder resounding from afar.

A heavenly pressure pressed down on them, suffocating even the three beasts, as coupled with Curtis' chains, they were unable to properly defend and were rendered motionless, dumbly staring at the dark clouds with unease and fear.

”If it was anyone else, I would call them unlucky to have called the Celestial Tribulations but in your case, it shouldn't be too hard to defend against it even if it had abnormal power, your body is way stronger than you could imagine, a pity though...”

Arthur's bones crackled and moved on their own, some healing instantaneously and others becoming tougher, all his pores absorbed Nether Energy and Mana like crazy, creating a white whirlpool, barely visible, above him.

His severe wounds and bloody wounds were recovering with a mind-numbing speed, in barely twenty seconds, he already had full Health, Mana, and Nether Energy.

There were no signs of the previous backlashes, especially in his arm, his eyes were emitting a brilliant blue light and his hair became much longer.

It was not only in that area that had dark clouds shrouding the sky, The sky covering all of Astria became gloomy and dark, the clouds brought an overwhelming pressure that forced more than half of the population to its knees.

...

In the Eastern side of the world, someplace hidden away inside the forest in the Itas Continent, there were several large figure wearing red robes running away toward the same direction.

”Hurry! It will surely notice u-”

The monster didn't even finish his words before a thick bolt of red thunder descended from the heavens, smiting him on the spot and turning him into black dust that soon dispersed in the air.

The others became scared shitless as they run with their fastest speed, trying to hide from the dark clouds above. These monsters were none other than the evil cult that appeared on the Eastern Continent, the same ones Jackob fought in the past.

They belonged to Bucama's race, they all had a savage aura around them, were despicable and evil from nature and were detested by everyone, even the devils.

Red bolts of thunder kept following everywhere, some hit their targets and some missed by a hair-width. In only a minute or so, more than half of the fleeing monsters were turned into nothingness.

The rest somehow managed to reach their destination, they entered a cave underground and activated countless red crystals as they jumped inside an enormous pool of blood, not daring to even raise their head in fear.
