151 The Birth Of The King Of Beas (1/2)
Fang Lan's eyes flashed with excitement as he was looking at the tribulation cloud in the sky. He has been waiting for this day for so long.
The day where he could fight side by side with the young master and the others. The day where he could actually fight in the frontline rather than the back.
Meanwhile, Ling Wei was flying around and paying attention to everything around. He knew how sneaky and annoying these demon beasts were. As such, he was on high alert and making sure that none of them came near Fang Lan to cause trouble no matter what.
How powerful was the 1st heavenly tribulation of a Martial Saint powerhouse? Fang Lan had no idea. He only knew that people of different power levels would experience different heavenly tribulations.
Since he was much more powerful than ordinary 1st Tribulation Martial Saint, his 1st heavenly tribulation would surely be strong.
Furthermore, Fang Lan has never seen anyone passed a Heavenly tribulation before. However, he knew that the 1st tribulation Martial Saint would only get one strike of Thunderbolt while a 2nd tribulation Martial would get two and so on.
Even though it was only one strike, it wasn't a regular lightning strike.
It wasn't something that an ordinary Martial Saint could handle head-on without any defensive weapons or treasures. Many Martial Saints failed to pass that single lightning strike.
Nonetheless, Fang Lan was confident he could pass it. He has seen Ling Lei and the others went through worst. They've never gone through heavenly tribulation but instead Heavenly punishment which was much worst. It was as if the Heavens itself was trying to annihilate them.
Rumble!
Suddenly, like the hammer of the thunder god, a white thunderbolt shot straight down extremely fast from the sky.
”Come now!” Fang Lan laughed and bravely braced himself against the white thunderbolt.
That single white thunderbolt was as thick and as long as an ancient pine tree. It also contained enough power to render any powerful warrior to ashes.
The white thunderbolt struck at Fang Lan's head furiously as though it was trying to destroy him. Meanwhile, He unexpectedly stood still while looking at the white thunderbolt coming straight at him with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
Boom!
With a deafening blast, the white thunderbolt heavily struck upon his body. At the same time, his body was completely covered by numerous white arcs of lightning like a cloak.
”Hahaha! Here I thought it was going to hurt. That damn thunderbolt felt more like a mosquito bite.” Shouted Fang Lan at the sky after passing the 1st tribulation.
He didn't even use any treasure or his true Qi energy but rather used his powerful draconic body to take on the thunderbolt.
With his powerful body that was even harder than steel, Fang Lan wasn't afraid of a little white thunderbolt the least bit.
While Fang Lan was celebrating the fact that he had easily passed the first tribulation and officially became a 1st tribulation Martial Saint, he suddenly stopped and his face became serious because he realized that even after he had passed 1st Heavenly tribulation, the tribulation cloud didn't disappear.
”Rumble!” Instead, the heavenly tribulation cloud grew stronger and larger as a golden brilliance permeated like sun rays, strangely emitting some light to the otherwise dark sky.
Boom! Boom! Boom!” The arcs of lightning flashed into the dark cloudy sky again and again as the thunder and lightning bolts grew stronger, ready to turn this world into ashes.
”Ohh shit! I thought it was supposed to be one strike. How come there's more.” Blurted out Fang Lan as he was looking at the sky with a serious expression on his face.
Suddenly, the dark sky looked like a dam that has been broken as countless golden lightning bolts rain down on Fang Lan like it was judgment's day.
The magnificent bolts of lightning looked like a golden ocean pouring down while trying to drown Fang Lan along with everything near him.
”Boom! Boom! Boom!” The area nearby got penetrated instantly as dozens of gigantic trees exploded into smithereens. There were even a few dozens of large pits on the ground where the lightning bolts have fallen.
After taking the full onslaught of the ocean of golden Lightning bolts, Fang Lan's draconic body was riddled with holes with blood gushing out of them.
It was as if his body has turned into a sieve. One could even see the other side through the bloody gaping holes in his body.
At the same time, a burning smell could be found emanating from his body. It seemed as if he had reached his limit
Seeing the damage taken by Fang Lan, Ling Wei became worried as he quickly flew towards him while asking: ” Brother Fang Lan, are you ok?”
”It seems like you are facing a Heavenly Punishment instead of a Heavenly Tribulation. I'm coming to help you.” He added.
”I'm fine and stay away. Trust me, I got this.”Fang Lan said in quivering voice while he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He clutched onto his chest with his right hand as if he was trying to stop the blood from gushing out the bloody hole in his chest.
The reason Fang Lan stopped Ling Wei from helping him was that he felt a terrifying power that was sleeping deep within his blood was about to awaken as he was in that life and death situation.
As such, he wanted to risk it all and faced the heavenly punishment alone to see if he could awaken that power. It had the nagging feeling that If he didn't awaken this power today with the help of the Heavenly Punishment, then it might take a very long time before he got that chance again.
Meanwhile, the tribulation cloud continued to roll nonstop in the sky. Obviously, it was charging to launch its third attacks.
