Boom!

A thunderbolt pierced through the thick layers of clouds, unleashing a ten-thousand-zhang burst of lightning that made even the void tremble.

The thunder tribulation had arrived!

Li Qing stood solemnly, raising his hand and striking out with a single palm.

The ten-thousand-zhang thunderbolt shattered instantly, transforming into a shower of crackling sparks that filled the sky.

Li Qing casually shook his slightly numb hand, his gaze fixed on the center of the dense cloud layer.

In the next moment, seven golden thunderbolts, each a thousand zhang long, plunged straight down, striking directly at him.

"Golden Firmament True Lightning? It’s appearing this quickly?" Li Qing’s tone carried a hint of gravity.

This was only the initial wave of lightning; far more terrifying heavenly thunder would undoubtedly follow.

Yet even these seven Golden Firmament True Lightning bolts posed little challenge to Li Qing. With a sweep of his wide sleeves, he effortlessly dispersed the seven bolts of lightning.

Rumble!

The clouds churned violently, and an ocean of condensed golden lightning crashed down with overwhelming force.

As he watched the world-destroying sea of golden lightning, Li Qing’s expression grew even more solemn.

The heavenly tribulation was unavoidable; he could only face it head-on.

As the sea of Golden Firmament True Lightning descended, Li Qing didn’t retreat. Instead, he charged forward to meet it.

In an instant, his clothes were reduced to ashes, leaving only his flawless fleshly body, radiating a faint, precious light, to roam through the sea of lightning.

Heavenly thunder crashed against his body as if baptizing him. Li Qing ceased resisting and instead sat cross-legged within the sea of lightning, enduring the refining power of the thunder.

He circulated the Dao Tribulation Limitless Sutra, a technique he had created himself, harnessing the destructive force of the heavenly thunder to temper his fleshly body and elevate his body refinement level.

Wave after wave of Golden Firmament True Lightning crashed against Li Qing’s body like surging tides.

With each retreat of the golden lightning, Li Qing’s fleshly body subtly grew stronger. He didn’t even flinch, calmly suppressing the pain with unwavering composure.

After a long while, the golden sea of lightning gradually faded, eventually vanishing completely.

Li Qing reopened his eyes, but almost immediately, layers of violet mist began to permeate the dark, cloud-covered sky.

"Violet Void Divine Lightning!"

Having witnessed others undergo the divine transformation tribulation, Li Qing recognized the impending thunderbolt.

His expression turned solemn, abandoning any arrogance as he finally activated the vast mana within his body.

In the blink of an eye, the violet mist coalesced into a massive net of violet lightning, ensnaring Li Qing completely.

He couldn’t escape. The Violet Void Divine Lightning formed an all-encompassing net that relentlessly entangled him.

When the lightning net made contact with his fleshly body, even Li Qing’s formidable physique was scorched, finally succumbing to the thunder’s assault.

This was the Violet Void Divine Lightning, the highest-level thunder tribulation typically encountered by lower realm cultivators in the divine transformation realm during their tribulation crossing.

Faced with such terrifying heavenly thunder, even Li Qing couldn’t emerge unscathed. This was heavenly thunder capable of annihilating divine transformation cultivators!

Moments later, Li Qing’s mana surged. He unleashed a series of powerful hand seals, shattering the lightning net.

"It’s only been a short time, and already the Violet Void Divine Lightning has appeared. What’s next?"

The answer came in the form of a ten-thousand-zhang-tall sea of violet lightning!

Boom!

A chill ran down his spine. He hadn’t expected a sea of lightning condensed from Violet Void Divine Lightning to materialize so abruptly.

Abandoning any remaining arrogance, he immediately activated the three heavenly spirit fires within his body.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three spiritual flames of different colors materialized above Li Qing’s head and shoulders, blazing fiercely like three ethereal lotus blossoms.

But this wasn’t enough. Li Qing channeled the Primordial Energy of Heaven and Earth, summoning a torrent of it with a wave of his hand. The surging energy converged, fully empowering the three heavenly spirit fires.

In moments, the flames intensified, burning even more fiercely.

Having reached the divine transformation realm, Li Qing could now fully unleash the three heavenly spirit fires within him. Reinforced by the Primordial Energy of Heaven and Earth, they could incinerate all things in existence.

Boom!

The sea of Violet Void Divine Lightning descended directly, engulfing Li Qing at its epicenter.

Waves of violet lightning surged forth, pouring over his body like liquid thunderous magma. Cracks appeared across his flesh, seeping crimson blood.

He was injured!

But this was to be expected. No cultivator in the lower realm could likely withstand the Violet Void Divine Lightning with their bare flesh and emerge unscathed.

Terrifying lightning pierced his skin, penetrating deep into his flesh and even scorching his bones.

Agonizing pain drilled into his core. Li Qing’s brows began to twitch, and he let out a low growl:

"Treasure, come!"

As the word fell, three streams of spiritual light shot forth from Li Qing’s body.

These were his three most vital treasures: the Primordial Chaos Peerless Hammer, the Wind-Thunder Silver Wings, and the Immortal Slaughtering Sword!

Now facing the most terrifying heavenly tribulation in the world, he had unhesitatingly unleashed these three treasures.

Among them, the Primordial Chaos Peerless Hammer was his lifebound magical treasure, constantly nourished by true essence within his dantian qi sea. Its power had long surpassed the limits of a nascent soul cultivator’s lifebound magical treasure.

Though it still couldn’t compare to a spirit treasure, it wasn’t far off.

The Wind-Thunder Silver Wings and the Immortal Slaughtering Sword were both spirit treasures, capable of withstanding the quenching of heavenly thunder and imprinting natural dao patterns upon themselves.

The Primordial Chaos Peerless Hammer floated and sank within the violet sea of lightning, enduring countless thunderbolts without sustaining any substantial damage, its surface spiritual light only dimming slightly.

The Immortal Slaughtering Sword remained as peerlessly independent as ever, its slender blade standing unwavering amidst the sea of lightning, enduring the relentless thunderbolts.

Most astonishing of all were the Wind-Thunder Silver Wings. These silver-purple bone wings soared and danced through the sea of lightning, even drawing behind them a trail of ten-thousand-zhang thunderbolts in pursuit.

As a spirit treasure of the Wind-Thunder Dao, the Violet Void Divine Lightning not only failed to harm it, but seemed to enhance its extraordinary aura.

With three spirit treasures activated, the pressure on Li Qing suddenly eased, allowing him to finally breathe a sigh of relief.

He focused on regulating his breathing while simultaneously healing his injured body.
