Chapter 371: Tribulation Again!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mike had also prepared countless potions to recover his energy and divine power. He did not know how many tribulations he would have to go through to break through to the divine-tier.
However, based on his previous speculations, the number of tribulations he would have to go through would be quite high. It was also possible for him to go through 40 to 50 tribulations. Moreover, the power of the tribulations could be several tens of times stronger than before. Therefore, no matter how much he prepared, he still did not feel that it was sufficient.
During these three years, another incident had happened, which made Mike completely determined to break through to the divine-tier and fly out of the world to search for the dragon head.
A huge meteorite had actually penetrated through the barrier, flying towards the ground. Although a few heaven-tier experts had worked together to smash it into smithereens, this incident was like a symbol. From then on, every few months, a meteorite would fall from the sky. Moreover, the size of the meteorite was getting bigger and bigger. It was becoming more and more difficult for the people below to stop it.
Another month had passed. Mike had finished all the preparatory work. He and the four beasts were also in their best condition. He picked a good day and was ready to break through.
Mike floated under the barrier and started to draw his divine power to attack the legendary realm with all his strength.
A tremendous amount of divine power was released under the barrier. The divine power around Mike was surging, and he trembled, on the verge of breaking through to the divine-tier.
Kelly was drinking tea with the Dark High Priest. Suddenly, she raised his head and looked to the north. Her eyes were filled with excitement.
“What’s wrong? Master Kelly, I’ve never seen you like this.”
Kelly had already regained her composure. She took a step forward, turned around, and said to the Dark High Priest, “Mike is currently breaking through the divine-tier shackles. However, I saw that the time for him to break through had yet to come, and he seems to be breaking through in a hurry. He’s would definitely be in danger, so I’m going to lend him a hand.”
The Dark High Priest’s pupils constricted, and he smiled sheepishly.
“Master Kelly, are you making fun of me again? No matter how talented that disciple of yours is, he has only recovered for less than 200 years. You said that he’s already starting to break through the divine-tier shackles. Could it be that he already has the strength of heaven-tier 10-star?”
Kelly nodded and said, “Dark High Priest, if fate permits, we’ll meet again in the future.”
When the Dark High Priest saw Kelly disappear from his sight, he could not help but feel a little desolate.
“As for me, out of a hundred disciples, there are actually more than ten who have betrayed me.”
The Dark High Priest lowered his head and looked at his chest. There was a penetrating wound there. It was precisely the wound caused by his second disciple back then. That sword had pierced through the Dark High Priest’s heart. Every time the Dark High Priest was agitated, he would feel a chill all over his body.
The Dark High Priest shook his head, picked up the wine on the table, and began to drink cup after cup.
Mike’s Qi and divine power continued to rise, and soon he arrived at the first opening.
The weather changed, and a huge whirlpool appeared above his head. Dark purple lightning was brewing in it.
Mike frowned. He could feel that the lightning was more than ten times stronger than the strongest lightning he had experienced last time. Moreover, the lightning did not seem to give him a chance to think, it only took about ten seconds from the time it appeared to the time it fell.
Mike did not dare to be negligent. He urged his divine power with all his strength and turned it into a divine shield to block between him and the lightning bolt. With a rumble, the lightning bolt exploded and landed heavily on Mike’s divine shield.
Mike staggered, he barely stabilized his body and suppressed the surging energy in his body. He looked at the second lightning bolt with a solemn expression.
However, he had no way to avoid it now. He could only push his divine power to the limit and use his physical body to withstand the lightning.
The lightning passed through Mike’s body. Mike instinctively screamed, but things were different from what he had expected. The intense pain that he had expected did not appear, instead, his body became hot and did not respond anymore.
The aroma of roasted meat wafted through the air. Mike gave a bitter laugh. He knew that a part of his flesh had been roasted by the hot lightning.
Mike did not have time to think. He bit the energy pill that he had hidden in his mouth in advance. A warm current quickly flowed through Mike’s body, gently healing every damaged part of Mike’s body.
The fourth, fifth, and sixth lightning landed on Mike’s body almost at the same time. Mike used all his strength to activate his divine power defense. The lightning rumbled on Mike’s body, but Mike repelled it with his divine power tenaciously.
Mike panted heavily. In order to resist the three bolts of lightning, the divine power in his body had been consumed by one-third in an instant.
Mike was secretly shocked. He knew that with this method of consumption, he would have no more divine power in his body after another 20 to 30 bolts of lightning. At that time, the real trouble would begin.
Mike frowned. He looked at the seventh, eighth, and ninth bolts of lightning that were about to fall. He sighed, consumed a handful of pills to recover his divine power, and took a defensive stance.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three bolts of lightning suddenly fell. Mike used all his strength to block them. After the three bolts of lightning disappeared, Mike found himself in mid-air. At this moment, his whole body was aching, and he did not have the strength to move a finger.
He supported himself to get up. Looking at the Lightning in the sky, he roared angrily,
“Come on, god! You can’t kill me!!”
Mike pushed the Law of Perfection, the Great Wilderness Qi Refining Technique, and the Carefree Travel technique to the extreme, mending his body, divine power, and mental power with all his strength. He quietly waited for the next attack.
However, this time, Mike miscalculated again. This time, four lightning bolts came at once. Mike used all his strength, but only managed to resist three of them. The other lightning bolt hit Mike directly, causing his body to convulse.
Kelly flew to the boundary of the Otherworld. Two figures appeared, one in front and one behind, and stopped him.
“Master Kelly, what are you doing?”
Kelly’s expression did not change. He had long expected that someone would jump out to stop her. She looked at the two people.
The space twisted. Countless blue light beams shot at these two people. The two could not dodge in time, so they could only take these attacks head-on.
The blue light flashed and illuminated the world.
The two of them were shocked. They released their spiritual power, but they found that their spiritual power could not penetrate the light beams, let alone track Kelly.
The two of them were shocked and angry.. They could only angrily resist the light beams until they could not hold on any longer, and they disappeared.
