Divine Brilliance - Chapter 1192
Chapter 1192: Hard To Believe
Zong Shou was shocked when the white lightning landed. He had never seen such tribulation lightning before.
However, he had once read a large part of the Common People’s Path books and recognized right away what it was.
Jiuxuan Back to Hiding God Asking Lightning, testing the soul, activated through energy.
He was stunned. He remembered that Xi Zi mentioned it in the book before.
…This lightning is the top in the world and even he couldn’t face it.
Xi Zi left it before he entered End Realm. What he meant was that even then when he hadn’t passed his End Realm Tribulation, he wasn’t willing and wasn’t able to take this tribulation head on.
Zong Shou clenched his fists, his fingertips etching into his flesh. At this moment, he also heard Zhu Zi’s voice spread over coldly.
“I crafted this God Heart Asking Lightning to punish the evil in the world and promote kindness. Although it isn’t completed, it can question evil in the world. If one is purely good and righteous one will live and will benefit from it. However, if one is evil, one will die. Gan Emperor, since you are the Saint Ruler, you should be someone who is kind…”
Those tens of thousands of steaks of righteous energy forced over. In front there was Li Biexue locking onto him such that he couldn’t avoid it. He could only wave his sleeves and toss out all his protector beasts to prevent them from facing the tribulation too.
In his heart, he was furious. The lightning decided based on energy but people like Jin Buhui who lived so well but due to him being slandered and hated by people, he was also surrounded by vengeful energy.
How could that God Heart Asking Lightning differentiate between good and evil? How was there anyone in the world which was purely good?
Litt Gold and the others were easily handled and he could just toss them aside. Xiaori and Xiaoyue hid in the Black and White Dharma, so they were okay. Only Jin Buhui’s yin soul wasn’t so easily thrown out.
At this moment, righteous energy filled with place and spread through the sky. The blood red Spirit Slaughtering God Light still didn’t scatter. Jin Buhui’s soul was originally already broken and even if this person was proper and didn’t fear the Confucians, however, once he left his protection, he would be struck and wouldn’t be able to reincarnate.
Just as he was hesitating, the white light entered his body. It spread through all his bones and limbs and into his Soul Ocean.
Every corner, every gap, and every hole was filled.
Zhu Zi’s voice continued, “If you really are the Saint Ruler, then you will be perfectly fine and you will benefit from this, take it as my apology. However, if you die, then you deserve it. How can someone with evil thoughts be said to be Saint Ruler?”
Zong Shou felt a lot of pent up frustration in his heart. Pretty much all of his strength was being retracted to face the explosiveness of the tribulation power.
His thoughts quickened and he controlled those twelve Copper Men.
They could twist the laws of the world so would they be useful on the tribulation power?
At this moment, he didn’t bother if it was or not, he had to give it a try. As long as he didn’t want to die here, he had to go all out to face the final explosion of this tribulation.
Li Biexue also stopped, fear appearing in his eyes.
Zhu Zi called it the God Heart Asking Lightning, however with his tribulation, he could naturally see that the core was the Jiuxuan Back to Hiding God Asking Tribulation Lightning.
That tribulation power was something even he had to avoid and he didn’t dare to take head on.
With his late End Realm strength, it wasn’t that he couldn’t but that if he did he would be heavily injured.
Zong Shou would die and the wings would no longer have a Master. However, if Li Biexue couldn’t stay alive it would be for nothing. Qingxuan and Taihuang were looking not far away, so he had to be fully focused in this battle.
He shook his head and he calmed back down. He didn’t care about who Zong Shou died to, he just had to get that item. At most, he would just wait for a while more, it was okay…
His eyes were cold and mocking. This Zhu Zi really spent so much effort to protect the Confucian Faction name and to ensure that they were the orthodox religion.
Dying to the lightning was the worst thing. Zong Shou was the hero of the world with shocking talent but dying to this lightning, that was truly amusing and a sad thing.
Just as he was thinking about this, he was stunned and looked over in surprise.
That lightning had already entered his body for two breaths. However, it still showed no signs of exploding out.
The white colored electricity currents circled Zong Shou like a snake. However, like it couldn’t find a target, it flowed around.
Ignited by the 30,000 righteous energies, a white pillar surged into the air.
It was white but there was gold within. It was so pure white that it was painful to the eye. It was 1,000 feet thick and had a dragon and phoenix wrapped around it.
The dragon was 10,000 feet long, the horns were vicious, and it had five legs and nine claws. It was a Fire Phoenix with a purple gold crown on it, its body covered in red flames.
Heaven and Earth were caring for him, turning into the form of the strongest God Beasts in the world to protect his luck.
As it was being offended and struck, the dragon roared and the pheonix cried out.
10,000 of the 30,000 streaks of energy were being smashed and destroyed by the roars and cries.
Zong Shou was really shocked. The lightning was already in his body and had rotated dozens of times but there were still no signs of it exploding.
Not only did it not explode but there was a warm current flowing through his meridians and bones.
His Celestial Power which was half used up instantly recovered. His injuries were also healing at a shocking rate.
Not only were his injuries healing but they were also strengthening. Li Xin interrupted him and he was unable to complete the final step to the Indestructible Body. Now, he was able to step out easily and complete it smoothly.
His Soul Ocean was also strengthening and expanding. The inner Heaven and Earth in his body was also becoming more and more complete.
It wasn’t just cultivation, but the Dao Word in his core also expanded. Many patterns, many talismans were added in.
Many Daos and Laws that Zong Shou had never come into contact with had surprisingly appeared in his mind, he grasped all of their mysteries.
Such a situation, did…
The legendary Jiuxuan Back to Hiding God Asking Lightning was not threatening on its own. Instead, it helped increase one’s tribulation. However, the prerequisite would be that one could pass the test.
Then, did he safely pass it? Which was why the lightning power didn’t explode?
He was stunned and then he understood, thinking back to the Black Qilin.
Xiaori ate good energy to live while the Black Qilin ate evil energy.
When both of them neutralized one another, what was left was naturally the pure kindness energy that Xiaori couldn’t swallow.
So, that was the case? This was really the will of the heavens…
Zong Shou didn’t feel much joy. Instead, he sighed.
Zhu Zi did what he did today after much planning. However, he had pushed the Confucian Faction and their ideals to an irrecoverable position!
Confucian teaching talked about the needs of men. It discussed morals and the way of ruling. Which was why it was able to spread down for tens of thousands of years and was the biggest religion.
However, why was it hated by the heavens?
The lightning couldn’t find a target, so after washing Zong Shou’s body, a portion spread outwards.
Jin Buhui’s soul which was in his sleeves was first to get hit.
Zong Shou was shocked and instantly tossed aside his thoughts. He wanted to retract the lightning power but then he thought about something.
He was prepared to use Xiaoyue’s evil swallowing power to swallow all evil.
Moments later, he allowed the lightning power to inject into Jin Buhui’s soul.
In just a breath, surprise appeared in his eyes. His cultivation increased but he wasn’t happy, Instead, he felt sad for the fall of the Confucian Faction. Their theories weren’t totally wrong. At this moment, Jin Buhui’s soul was being recovered by the lightning. Zong Shou was instantly delighted and was on cloud nine.
The heavens had eyes and didn’t give up on him!
The pure white King Energy shone in the air. Phoenix and Dragon roared like they were venting out the anger in their hearts. Flames spread in the sky and a storm blew.
10,000 streaks of righteous energy were being dissipated. The 20,000 remaining trembled, barely holding on as the pure white King Energy forced down upon them.
Another ball of white energy from within Zong Shou’s sleeves surged into the sky.
It was also pure white and flawless. It was righteous and there was a slight purple to it, resonating with Zong Shou’s pure white energy. Although the energy pillar was small, it didn’t lose its glow.
Jin Buhui’s soul body also appeared beside Zong Shou. Looking around at a loss, his eyes were filled with confusion.
He had been in deep sleep in his sleeves and only now did he wake up.
He noticed that the sense of weakness in his mind was gone. Instead, he felt really warm and was stronger than even when he had his physical body.
Pretty much at the same time, the Confucian Temple, the three saints of the Confucian Faction.
Zhu Zi spat out a mouthful of fresh blood which dyed the robe in front of his chest.
His eyes lost color and his energy became chaotic, causing his body to be painful like knife cuts.
The pain of his body was far from his soul which felt like it was being slashed by 1,000 blades and torched by an intense flame.
An indescribable regret and a sense of fear spread about in his chest.
At this moment, dozens of Confucian Faction people sat around, their chests dyed with blood and their eyes filled with disbelief.
