Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 233: Thunder Tribulation Descends, the Terrifying Divine Might of the Eye of the Hell King

Yes, you heard it right. Faced with the descent of Thunder Tribulation, the hearts of the group of Foundation Building geniuses were not filled with mockery or cheers, but with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

The reason for this is that although the cultivators fear Thunder Tribulation, they also understand that for the creatures in the world, as long as they do not do anything to anger the heavens, Thunder Tribulation is merely a test, not complete destruction.

Moreover, the heavens are fair, and there will be rewards after the test.

Just like the Forty-Nine Heavenly Tribulations for the promotion to Gold Core, it is both a tempering and a great opportunity.

After all, thunder is the pivot of yin and yang, commanding the foundation of all things.

Besides its destructive aspect, it also represents rebirth.

The souls of Yin spirits need to undergo the baptism of thunder in order to transform from yin to yang, which is the best manifestation of thunder's creation.

Similarly, only through the tempering of Thunder Tribulation can a trace of opportunity for creation be nurtured, allowing the Gold Core to fully condense.

The reason why a Supreme Grade Law Weapon can transform into a Law Treasure and give birth to a trace of spirituality is also a manifestation of thunder's creation.

Because of these reasons, the geniuses welcome Thunder Tribulation.

The earlier Thunder Tribulation arrives and the stronger its power, the more the geniuses like it.

Of course, only the top-notch geniuses of the major sects would like Thunder Tribulation.

This is similar to the exams in the previous life. For the academically challenged, it is a difficult journey through hell. If the exam results are not ideal, it not only affects their mood and increases their burden, but they will also be educated by their parents and teachers. Therefore, academically challenged students are afraid of exams.

On the contrary, for the top students, exams are a summary of their learning and the best way to receive praise from their parents.

In this world, Thunder Tribulation is similar to exams. For ordinary cultivators, it is the gate to hell. Once they can't withstand it, not only will they not be educated by their parents and teachers, but their mood will also be affected. The grand Thunder Tribulation will directly strike them dead.

This death crisis makes many cultivators from small sects and independent cultivators treat Thunder Tribulation as a mortal enemy.

Some people, even if they have reached the conditions for Core Formation, dare not undergo Core Condensation because they fear Thunder Tribulation.

Ignorant Monster Cultivators, as well as demonic cultivators and ghosts who are vulnerable to thunder, tremble all over at the sound of thunder.

Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Zhong Cang. In the Hongxuan World, the gap between people is sometimes even greater than that between humans and dogs.

As the top genius, Zhong Cang naturally has no fear of Thunder Tribulation.

"Poof!"

Breaking through the roof, Zhong Cang appeared directly on top of a tall building. Looking up at the sky, Zhong Cang found that the current Thunder Tribulation was still in the gathering stage.

Endless dark clouds and thunder were continuously converging from a far distance. In just a few breaths, the range of thunder and dark clouds expanded to several miles in diameter.

Many people were trembling under the pressure of the thunder's might, but Zhong Cang, who was at the center, showed no signs of fear.

Activating the Eye of the Hell King, Zhong Cang's eyes instantly turned black and white. These two eyes were like broken glass beads, giving people a sense of fragility.

Through these broken yin and yang eyes, Zhong Cang's narrowed gaze discovered that the countless dark clouds that had gathered had more than a hundred intersecting black cracks.

At the first sight of these cracks, Zhong Cang understood.

"I can kill these thunderbolts... that's right, although thunderbolts are mighty, they are not eternal. On the contrary, their lives are extremely short. When thunderbolts shine brilliantly and fall from the sky, that is their most glorious moment, but also the moment of their demise. This is their death."

"The dark clouds in the sky will also disperse within a few hours under the sun's rays. Dissipation is the death of the dark clouds!"

"Inhale... exhale..."

After discovering the weakness of the thunderbolts, Zhong Cang did not use the Extreme White Ancient Gold Sword Qi, a powerful weapon.

He just took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

"Exhale..."

With Zhong Cang's breath, a white mist was expelled from his mouth.

Under the influence of the mirage dragon, the mist quickly condensed into more than a hundred small swords. These mist swords automatically absorbed the spiritual energy of the water system between heaven and earth and rapidly grew in size.

At the same time, they merged with the strong wind and swiftly slashed towards the sky.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

More than a hundred mist swords soared into the sky, attracting the attention of many people.

However, looking at the illusory mist swords and the majestic power of heaven and earth, they did not understand the significance of Zhong Cang's actions.

"What is he doing?"

"Resisting the heavenly tribulation?"

"Using mist swords to resist? Are you kidding me? I could blow them away with a gust of wind, let alone the heavenly tribulation!"

No one refuted these words. Many people could feel that these mist swords were not a spell that Zhong Cang used with great effort, but rather a breath turned into a sword.

With such perfunctory means, it was easy to imagine how weak the power of these mist swords was.

Not to mention Foundation Building, even some Qi Refining cultivators believed that they could destroy these mist swords with their own abilities.

And the power of Thunder Tribulation was stronger than Foundation Building.

Therefore, many people felt that these mist breath swords could not pose the slightest danger to Thunder Tribulation.

They were not even qualified for detection.

In this situation, they naturally wondered about the meaning behind Zhong Cang's actions.

And just when they were puzzled, the accumulation of thunderbolts had been completed, and a massive thunderbolt was about to strike from the high sky.

At the same time, those more than a hundred illusory mist breath swords, with the help of the wind, ascended to the high sky.

However, at this moment, no one cared about them anymore, knowing their weakness.

Everyone's gaze was fixed on the central thunderbolt, wanting to see how Zhong Cang would withstand it.

At the same time, some elders from Gold Core were able to speculate the level of Thunder Tribulation based on the size of the thundercloud.

"A radius of three kilometers, this is a Nine-Threes Thunder Tribulation."

"It's only second to the Forty-Nine Heavenly Tribulation of Core Formation... Zhong Cang has really comprehended something extraordinary."

"By the way, how did he comprehend it?"

"Don't tell me, even I am puzzled. He hasn't walked the path of invincibility yet, but he broke through in advance. I haven't even heard of such a thing."

"Alright, stop arguing. Thunder Tribulation is still very powerful. Although the Nine-Threes Thunder Tribulation cannot kill that little monster, it can force him to reveal some of his trump cards effortlessly. From the trump cards he has shown, we can speculate what he has comprehended."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, silently waiting for the arrival of Thunder Tribulation.

They didn't have to wait too long, as the thunder was about to strike soon.

However, before the thunder struck, something that shocked them happened.

Those illusory mist swords slashed onto the sky full of dark clouds just before the thunder was about to strike.

"Chi La..."

The mist swords formed by breath seemed to have no power at all, floating lightly.

But it was these mist swords that killed the dark clouds.

Yes, the vast dark clouds filled with endless thunder and the majestic aura of heaven and earth were cut apart by the lightly floating mist swords.

There was no intense collision, no grand sound. The mist swords went up and easily split the dark clouds that covered the sky into more than a hundred pieces.

Then, the split dark clouds disconnected from the connection with heaven and earth and quickly dissipated.

"?!?!"

"Impossible!"

"What happened?"

"Hiss..."

The mist swords dissipated along with the collision with the sky full of dark clouds.

However, even though their forms dissipated, the scene of splitting the dark clouds left the countless people present in shock.

Even the Gold Core Perfected Beings had their gazes narrowed and their minds and bodies shocked by these mist swords.

Some Foundation Building Perfected Beings even collapsed directly to the ground because they couldn't accept this terrifying scene, muttering to themselves incessantly:

"This doesn't make sense. How can mist swords be able to split the dark clouds?"

"This is not xianxia..."

"There is no will attached, no hidden divine power. Why? Why can a sword like this split the clouds of Thunder Tribulation?"

Their mental defenses were shattered, and they even felt like their worldviews had been overturned.

In reality, simply splitting the dark clouds and enduring the Thunder Tribulation wouldn't affect these people much.

Although they didn't like Zhong Cang, both the Tianhai Immortal City and the other major sects in the Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain acknowledged one thing - Zhong Cang was very strong.

Even if he couldn't walk the path of invincibility, he was still the most outstanding genius.

Therefore, no matter who it was, they all believed that Zhong Cang had the ability to split open the sky filled with dark clouds.

However, what they thought of as splitting open was the clash between the sword that split mountains and seas and the thunder, ultimately tearing apart the clouds of the Thunder Tribulation.

Now, relying on some ethereal misty swords, he had split the Thunder Tribulation, which overturned their common sense.

After their common sense was overturned, some people were filled with confusion, unable to understand, while others...were afraid.

Even the clouds of the Thunder Tribulation, radiating endless divine might and filled with infinite lightning, couldn't evade the strikes of the misty swords. Those Foundation Building geniuses didn't have the confidence to withstand it.

And it must be known that these misty swords were formed by Zhong Cang simply exhaling a breath.

With such a presence, he had as much as he wanted. In this situation, how could Foundation Building cultivators not be shocked and afraid?

"I simply can't understand..."

Zimo: "Hehe, in the past, although there was a gap between me and him, I could still see where the gap was, and knowing that, there was a chance to catch up and surpass. But now, can't even understand it anymore?"

Not only Zimo, even the perpetually tipsy Fat Taoist He Gao, at this moment, didn't have his carefree and unrestrained demeanor. Instead, he had a solemn expression and sighed with a bit of dejection, saying:

"...he is already a class above us!"

"It's over."

"Everyone, I'm a bit worried. It's really possible that our Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain will be breached by this monster."

"..."

Our own domain, breached by foreign geniuses. In the past, anyone who said such things, whether they were ordinary cultivators or the peerless geniuses of major sects, would be met with angry stares from everyone.

Some hot-tempered individuals might even curse or attack these people.

But at this moment, all the people could respond with was...silence.

And silence represented acquiescence.

It could only be said that the terrifying Eye of the Hell King had struck a heavy blow to the young generation of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain.

Of course, the one who suffered was the Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain, while Zhong Cang at this moment was only invigorated.

In the past, there was a poet immortal who, with a single utterance, was half of the flourishing Tang Dynasty.

And today, with a single breath, Zhong Cang not only annihilated the thunderclouds that filled the sky, but also, because of this unfathomable ability, suppressed the young generation of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain, leaving them with no desire to compete against him.
