Chapter 480 Last Defense
As the vortex on the clouds accumulated energy, Krune also prepared his side.
"Light Spirit, I will leave the Fire, Water, and Wind Tribulation for you. Just make sure they are out. The rest will be up to me."
Light Spirit immediately agreed.
"Very well. You better know what you are doing."
The Purple Lightning, which was resisted only half of the Tribulation's power, then increased in strength. The Purple Lightning Barrier outside Krune suddenly became a lot sturdier. The entire force of those three tribulations was barred outside.
Krune was satisfied with those three Tribulations disappearing. After that, he looked up in the sky and knew that it was time.
"Feifei, I hope your Energy Transfer Formation on the Shields can resist it."
Right after, all Krune's 38 Kaleu Tribulation Shields came out at once and formed three layers of protection above him. However, Krune didn't have more Spiritual Energy to divert for them, let alone Purple Tribulation Lightning. Compared to when Krune uses them in battle, they were quite weak without the energy and elements to support them. However...
'Hehe. Energy to increase their resistance? I have loads of it!'
Suddenly, Krune completely stopped to resist the Earth Tribulation! His Elemental and even Chaos Meridians then connected with the Shield's Energy Transfer Formation. Immediately, Krune started to absorb the entire Earth Tribulation Power and transfer it to the Shields just like he does with his Purple Tribulation Lighting.
This is quite a risky move since the Earth Tribulation is not under his control. Krune is having to force this transfer, which is quite hard even for him. This is an Earth Tribulation of a Void Breaking Realm Breakthrough, after all. Also, the Kaleu Tribulation Shields are a Lightning Compatible Equipment. So it was even harder to use the Earth Tribulation to reinforce it.
Seeing that, Light Spirit couldn't help but laugh.
"Hahaha! You are crazy!"
However, he had to admit that it was the best solution now that Krune was almost without any energy left.
Krune's Kaleu Tribulation Shields then started to shine yellowish. The Tribulation Power, which tried to escape, was then forced to stay by Krune's wills in each one of them.
Finally, the Tribulation Lightning first bolt came down.
Boom!
Waves of energy spread everyone, but it did not get even close to Krune. Then the next ones arrived one after another.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...
As mentioned before, the number of Lightning Bolts was a lot high than the Luvile Universe. That is because Normal Tribulation Lightning is weaker than Light Spirit's one. The higher amount was there to compensate for that lack of power.
Krune's Shields were resisting at first, but then they started to lose the power protecting them. Once a Shield was about to run out of Earth Tribulation energy, Krune immediately recovered it. He had made three layers of protection with then, and the first one was almost gone.
Then came the second layer, which had time to gather even more Earth Tribulation Energy. However, the Lightning Bolts got even stronger. Not Long after, the second layer also disappeared.
The Lightning Bolts continued for a while longer until finally, they stopped. However, Krune knew what that meant. The last lightning bolt was about to come down. It was always the strongest one, much more powerful than the previous attacks.
Nevertheless, Krune didn't care.
The Tribulation clouds started to reduce in size, but at the same time, the vortex in the center charged with even more energy. The Cloud Vortex wasn't even black anymore, it became utterly blue and white due to the amount of Tribulation Lighting Power inside.
It was then that it came down.
Boom!
Krune's last layer of Kaleu Tribulation Shields blasted away almost instantly. However, that was Krune's strongest layer that had accumulated Earth Tribulation power for the longest time. Thanks to that, over 50% of the power of the Lightning Bolt was consumed. As for the rest, they hit Krune's Wisp Core head-on!
A crater immediately opened, and the wave of energy blasted everything in over a kilometer radius. One must remember that this place is the Holy Land. Everything here is hundreds if not thousands of times more resistance due to the Godly Energy. For a crater to appear shows just how powerful that last strike was.
Right after that Lightning came down, the Tribulation Clouds started to dissipate. All the other Tribulation Powers also scattered as if they had never been there. Soon, the area was once more back to normal. Of course, normal if one didn't count the damage caused by the Tribulations.
Suddenly, a Wisp began to float out of the destruction. Not only that, but Krune seemed to be okay even after being hit by the remaining power of the Tribulation Lightning Bolt.
Krune looked at everything around him and couldn't help but feel scared.
"Fortunately, I had left the Chaos Energy from before the breakthrough for the last moment. Otherwise..."
It was then that Light Spirit remembered.
"Oh! Now that you said that, you really separated that Chaos Energy. I was wondering where you got the power to fend off that last strike. In the end, you didn't use it until the very end."
Krune laughed while he confirmed that. He used everything at once in that last moment to create an energy barrier focused right above him.
Krune then released Heavin once more, who quickly took control of the Parrot Puppet.
"Is it over? Uh? How come you look so ragged? It was supposed to be an easy breakthrough, no?"
Krune returned to his human form while smiling bitterly. Through a Divine Sense message, he then explained everything that happened in his breakthrough.
"Holy Shit! I was almost killed with you, and I didn't even know? Why do you have to always make things so complicated?"
Light Spirit agreed with Heavin.
"Indeed, you should stop trying to kill yourself at every breakthrough. Suicide is not good for health."
Krune's mouth twitched.
"Fuck you! Do you think I wanted it? I was also waiting for a common tribulation. Even I don't know how this happened at all!"
Light Spirit chuckled before changing the topic.
"Anyway, we should leave now. There are plenty of cultivators and demon beasts looking at us with their Divine Senses at the moment. I don't know about you, but I used almost all the Tribulation Lightning Power stored."
Heavin heard that and immediately spread his Mental Energy. Sure enough, there were around 20 to 30 spectators. It wouldn't take long for them to come for Krune either. They all saw that he is a wisp, so things wouldn't be good if they decided to attack.
Krune agreed with Light Spirit and immediately expanded the Tribulation Lightning Layer. Light Spirit used almost all the Tribulation Lightning Power, but not all of it. If it was only for the layer and Tribulation Lightning Movement, there was enough for it.
Suddenly, Krune disappeared from everyone's Divine Sense like magic. Right after, he selected the direction that had the least amount of spectators. Everyone was taken aback when Krune vanished, quickly coming over to see what happened.
But only three of them, two Demon Beasts and one Cultivator, saw a flash of Purple Lightning passing by them. They thought about pursuing it, but they immediately gave up right after. It was just too damn fast!
Those three were also in the Void Breaking Realm, which was one more reason why Krune selected their direction. It was better to not risk passing close by Divine Path Realm ones. In the end, no one was able to do anything with Krune.
Krune flew for two hours or so before finally stopping. On the way, he also used Spirit Stones to recover his energy as fast as possible. Fortunately, no one seemed able to follow him. Heavin's Mental Energy is different from Divine Sense. Even if the enemy has much higher cultivation, he can still see them.
Krune then found a place to hide again and started to properly recover his energy. At the same time, Light Spirit recharged his Tribulation Lightning.
"You two, don't forget that the next one to make a breakthrough is me, alright?"
Krune nodded.
"Don't worry. Just give me some time to recover my energies and repair my Kaleu Tribulation Shields."
Heavin didn't mind it.
"No problem, I will use this time to check the differences in our Divine Soul."
