Chapter 342: Chapter 303: Destruction Thunder Tribulation, Heart Demon World

As Jiang Zuo’s physical body transformed, his resistance to the Tribulation Thunder instantly skyrocketed.

The fifty-sixth bolt of Tribulation Thunder was considerably stronger than the fifty-fifth. However, due to his body’s transformation, it actually inflicted less damage on Jiang Zuo than the previous one.

As Jiang Zuo refined more of the special Tribulation Thunder Power into his flesh, the metallic luster on his body grew increasingly intense.

The Tribulation Thunder became more and more terrifying, yet the damage it dealt to Jiang Zuo was gradually diminishing.

By the time the sixty-fourth bolt of Tribulation Thunder descended, Jiang Zuo’s entire body was enveloped in a faint golden glow.

Not only that, but in this state, Jiang Zuo could unleash vast swaths of terrifying golden lightning with a mere wave of his hand.

Even a late-stage Three Flowers Realm Cultivator would be instantly turned to ash if they were so much as grazed by it!

Golden Thunder Tribulation Body!

At the same time, after enduring eight of these special bolts of Tribulation Thunder, the Sword Pill was also completely revitalized.

The Sword Pill’s sharpness had increased dramatically, and it could now release some Tribulation Thunder Power. Jiang Zuo felt that once it fully absorbed this fortuitous opportunity, it could undergo its own tribulation and advance to become a fifth-rank Spirit Treasure.

After the sixty-fourth bolt of Tribulation Thunder, the sky temporarily grew calm.

’The Divine Power Thunder Tribulation is coming!’

Jiang Zuo looked up at the pitch-black clouds slowly rotating in the sky, gathering power for what was to come.

The deeper one’s foundation, the stronger the Divine Power Thunder Tribulation.

Jiang Zuo cultivated all five elements simultaneously, something unprecedented in the Cultivation Realm. There was simply no point of reference for what his Divine Power Thunder Tribulation would be like.

The Thunder Tribulation had yet to descend, but Jiang Zuo could already feel an unprecedented sense of suppression.

’My Divine Power Thunder Tribulation is going to be incredibly terrifying!’

Just as this thought flashed through Jiang Zuo’s mind, thumb-sized black droplets began to gently fall from within the pitch-black clouds.

’Black rain?’

’Isn’t this supposed to be the Divine Power Thunder Tribulation?’

Jiang Zuo stared at the scene, momentarily stunned.

But in the next instant, his expression changed dramatically.

He watched as the black droplets suddenly exploded in mid-air, transforming into five-colored Tribulation Thunder that blasted furiously down toward him!

Metal! Wood! Water! Fire! Earth!

Tribulation Thunder, representing the colors of the five elements and carrying an unprecedentedly violent power, bombarded Jiang Zuo!

Moreover, it wasn’t just a single black droplet; all the black droplets in the sky, and the endless stream still falling, were doing the same!

’This Celestial Dao... it has no intention of letting me pass this Thunder Tribulation!’

Jiang Zuo was filled with shock and rage.

A Divine Power Thunder Tribulation was supposed to carry some of the Divine Power from a Dao Fruit within its bolts.

Enduring this tribulation, sensing and absorbing that Divine Power, was the foundation for a Cultivator to master their own Divine Techniques.

But no matter how strong it was, the Dao Fruit’s Divine Power within a tribulation should never be powerful enough to drive one to despair.

However, the Divine Power of the Dao Fruit carried by the tribulation before Jiang Zuo was not only stronger than a Divine Technique from the late Dao Fruit Realm...

...it was even more terrifying than the self-detonation of a Dao Fruit!

In truth, starting from the fifty-fifth bolt, the Thunder Tribulation was already beyond what any Three Flowers Realm Cultivator could withstand.

No matter how talented, any other Cultivator should have already failed their tribulation at that point.

It was only because Jiang Zuo’s physical body and Cultivation Technique were heaven-defying, and because he possessed a divine artifact like the Beast God Tree Thunderstruck Wood...

...that he not only survived the final eight bolts of Tribulation Thunder, but also ushered in the Divine Power Thunder Tribulation.

And this Divine Power Thunder Tribulation had dropped all pretenses.

Jiang Zuo was certain that if he hadn’t just refined the final eight bolts of Tribulation Thunder and achieved the Golden Thunder Tribulation Body...

...even having passed the sixty-fourth bolt, he would have been instantly blasted to ash by this Divine Power Thunder Tribulation.

"Golden Thunder Tribulation Body!"

"Black Tortoise Primordial Body!"

"Water Curtain Celestial Splendor!"

"Nine Flames Reincarnation Technique!"

...

As the terrifying Tribulation Thunder filled the sky and surged toward him, Jiang Zuo found himself truly in a sea of lightning.

With no way to evade it, Jiang Zuo unleashed every single Cultivation Technique and method he had at this moment.

The Thunderstruck Wood hacked wildly, striking at the bolts of Tribulation Thunder.

BOOM!!!...

Despite Jiang Zuo pouring out all his strength and unleashing power that far surpassed that of a Three Flowers Realm Cultivator—power that even a Dao Fruit Realm Cultivator couldn’t match...

...as a series of deafening explosions rang out, Jiang Zuo felt as if he were being bombarded by one nuclear bomb after another.

His body burned fiercely as endless power ravaged it from the outside.

Jiang Zuo couldn’t afford to worry about anything else. He desperately channeled this power into his Qi Sea and refined it into his physical body.

But the sheer amount of Divine Power Thunder Tribulation was too terrifying.

Jiang Zuo felt that compared to this, the previous sixty-four bolts of Tribulation Thunder combined were like a firefly in the light of the sun—utterly insignificant.

Jiang Zuo could feel his physical body rapidly dissolving amidst the Divine Power Thunder Tribulation.

Had his body been even slightly weaker, he would have been turned to ash long ago.

「In the distance.」

An old man and a young man watched the faint flashes of lightning in the distance, their hearts pounding with terror.

"Such terrifying Tribulation Thunder!"

"I feel like if I were so much as grazed by it, my soul would be scattered to the winds!"

The young Cultivator couldn’t help but say, his body trembling slightly, after the Divine Power Thunder Tribulation began.

He was a great distance away, but he could still clearly sense the terrifying, destructive aura within the Tribulation Thunder.

That Tribulation Thunder seemed intent on destroying everything.

"No wonder this senior sought such a remote place to undergo his tribulation. He must have had a premonition. Coming to a place with such thin Spiritual Qi was an attempt to weaken the power of the Tribulation Thunder!"

"If he had tried to face this in a place with dense Spiritual Qi, it would likely be even more hopeless!"

The old man’s eyes were wide with amazement, utterly breathless at the spectacle.

"Grandmaster, do you think that senior can survive such a terrifying Thunder Tribulation?" the young Cultivator couldn’t help but ask.

"I don’t know. From ancient times to the present, even the greatest of geniuses can fail their tribulations."

"What’s more, this person’s Thunder Tribulation is far too terrifying. It’s beyond what any normal person could possibly withstand."
