Chapter 468 - Chapter 468: Chapter 165 Shame (2/2)

yet within the hearts of the few, a wave of regret was incessantly spreading.

…

…

fortunately, though the heavenly tribulation was powerful, it had its limits.

and the event that lin jing had been worried about did not occur.

after engulfing the nearby mountain range, the clouds of tribulation had ceased expanding, no longer growing.

instead, the tribulation clouds continued to intensify in a different manner.

the air grew more and more condensed with a potent atmosphere, and even the surrounding pressure of heaven and earth became increasingly intense.

even the blue-robed cultivators, who hadn’t entered the range of the heavenly tribulation, were affected by this terrifying pressure.

they had only endured this pressure of heaven and earth for a short while before they could no longer bear it and retreated dozens of miles away.

they only dared to look on at lin jing’s side from a far distance, not daring to get close.

at that moment, the power of the tribulation lightning had fully accumulated.

continuous muffled rumbles emanated from the tribulation clouds above.

suddenly.

a bright blue light flashed across the sky…

a thunderous “boom” sounded.

a blue lightning bolt, hundreds of feet thick, struck down, enveloping lin jing and the entire mountaintop.

before that, lin jing had activated his overlord body, covering himself with a layer of golden light to resist the heavenly tribulation.

this first lightning bolt had come fast and left just as swiftly.

soon, the first bolt of lightning dissipated.

in the aftermath, the ground near lin jing was completely scorched black.

even the very summit where lin jing stood had a layer sheared off by that first strike of lightning.

yet, there was not a single scratch on lin jing’s body.

the blue-robed cultivators, who had witnessed the first bolt of lightning, were left dumbfounded.

such was the power of the first bolt of lightning.

wouldn’t the subsequent bolts then be several times stronger?

if it were they who faced it, they would likely be severely injured by this first lightning strike.

……

at this time, lin jing, looking up at the sky, saw the thunder within the tribulation clouds tumbling unceasingly.

clearly, the second bolt was garnering strength.

right then, lin jing sensed it.

another bolt of lightning had descended upon xu ye’s location.

this lightning bolt should be xu ye’s sixth.

the lightning strikes befalling xu ye were much faster than lin jing’s.

and so, after waiting a little while longer,

lin jing’s second bolt of lightning finally descended.

this second bolt was also blue.

only, it was much thicker than the first bolt.

in the face of this second lightning strike, lin jing, aside from operating the overlord divine physique, did not take any defensive measures.

of course, there was also a formation that took on some of the damage from the lightning strike for lin jing.

shortly after, the third bolt arrived…

it was still a blue lightning strike.

this third bolt finally made lin jing feel some pressure.

after the third strike, the color of the lightning within the tribulation clouds in the sky changed.

it turned red.

countless red electric arcs, accompanied by a “rumbling” sound, churned nonstop within the clouds.

after a moment, the rumbling sound suddenly choked.

lin jing’s heart went on alert immediately, he looked up quickly while operating the overlord divine physique, ready to withstand the incoming bolt.

indeed.

just as the golden light on lin jing’s body reached its peak, a red lightning bolt, hundreds of feet thick, struck down in response.

the red lightning was incredibly fierce.

the moment it contacted the formation set up to aid lin jing in his tribulation, it directly shattered it…
