Chapter 173: Overcoming the Great Disaster

Chapter 173: Undergoing Tribulations Continuously

The Third Heaven!

Dark clouds pressed down, rolling and churning, as a new round of lightning began, illuminating the sky. Laws of Thunder cascaded down like a waterfall, vast and endless.

“This is going to kill me, going to kill me…” Lin Fan cried out, feeling a bit dizzy.

There was simply too much of it; lightning appeared in the form of waterfalls, thousands of them, surging from the void, like countless Celestial Rivers crashing down on him.

In an instant, he was struck so hard that blood flowed from his seven orifices, and blazing electric arcs erupted from him. Even a hard divine metal would shatter if it came here.

Everyone couldn’t help but wonder, was this still giving people a way to survive?

“Kill!”

At this moment, Lin Fan let out a long roar. Standing beneath the waterfalls, he had no retreat. His precious techniques circulated frantically, reaching their Peak, as he fully exerted himself to resist.

Even so, his hair was disheveled, blood splattered, and large areas of his body were charred black by the electricity. His battle robe had long since been destroyed, charred and flaking off, a truly tragic sight.

But he didn’t dare to wear his Celestial Silkworm Garment; otherwise, such a treasure would attract an even greater Lightning Tribulation, which would be incredibly terrifying and truly impossible to deal with.

“Charge through, no need to endure layer by layer and wait for it to disappear on its own!”

Lin Fan muttered to himself. His Unique Cave Heaven opened, and he fully unleashed his innate Divine Ability, empowering himself to be immune to all Laws. He charged towards the sky, leaping over numerous obstacles.

In an instant, he successively passed through several layers, ascending to the Fifth Heaven with irresistible force. Even the injuries sustained during this process healed.

Many people were surprised by this scene. They had thought Lin Fan would struggle greatly, spending a long time in each Heaven and suffering severe injuries, but the outcome was not as expected.

“Transforming all Laws into Life Laws, his primordial Divine Ability is truly powerful. Undergoing Tribulation like this, there’s a high probability he will pass through, even breaking through all Nine Heavens,” an Elder said with shock.

“Boom!”

However, upon reaching the Sixth Heaven, it was no longer so simple; a creature actually appeared, a golden great alligator, blocking Lin Fan’s path.

The next moment, the massive Alligator Ancestor opened its blood-filled mouth and pounced towards him, accompanied by endless lightning, overwhelming the sky and earth, intending to bite through his Physical Body.

This made Lin Fan’s hair stand on end; it was too bizarre and too sudden. For a creature to appear already at the Sixth Heaven, it couldn’t be targeting him, could it?

One must know that he was only at the Array Formation Realm. Even if a creature evolved from lightning were to appear, it should only do so in the final stage.

Could it be… because he was Undergoing Tribulation too quickly, he had provoked the heavens, causing a more difficult tribulation to descend?

But no matter what, at this point, there was only one option: to fight.

“Boom!”

Lin Fan unleashed his power, his combat strength still at its Peak. A True Dragon emerged behind him, roaring continuously, striking the golden Alligator Ancestor and resisting the lightning.

This was an intense battle, a life-or-death trial, allowing no room for even the slightest carelessness.

For a time, beast shadows clashed in the sky, roaring incessantly, engaging in a grand decisive battle! The scene was terrifying!

In the end, Lin Fan was like a War God, bloodstains on his fists, fighting with broad, sweeping movements, he shattered the Alligator Ancestor’s head and blasted it to death.

However, he himself suffered damage in this battle. His muscles were cracked, continuously bombarded by dense lightning, and his skin was like dry, cracked earth, peeling off in chunks.

He couldn’t continuously use his innate Divine Ability; he could only use it at intervals, otherwise it would be too abnormal, and even the heavens wouldn’t tolerate it.

“Eh? There’s Life Qi in the lightning, containing the essence of heaven and earth, which can nourish the entire body.”

Lin Fan was startled. After the Alligator Ancestor was killed, it transformed into a shower of light and scattered onto his body, absorbed into his flesh and blood.

At this moment, his charred Physical Body was nourished, like spring sunlight after rain, shedding large patches of cracked old skin and growing new, flawless and pure flesh.

Moreover, a surge of Origin Qi was nurtured within his body, making his essence, Qi, and spirit even more refined and brilliant, yielding great benefits.

Indeed, as long as one survived the Lightning Tribulation, a comprehensive transformation could occur. He became even more eager to ascend to the highest point.

After a brief rest, Lin Fan’s injuries improved and he quickly recovered, his entire body glowing. He continued to charge into the sky, breaking through the sea of lightning, and arrived at the Seventh Heaven.

“Dong!”

Suddenly, as soon as he ascended, he was attacked. A large bell flew rapidly, suppressing him from above. The bell’s roar affected even his Primordial Spirit, threatening to tear it from his body.

This was extremely terrifying, a formidable Magical Artifact. Symbols were even engraved on the bell’s wall, revealing a “Wu” character, dazzling and piercing.

“Could it be… that the imprint of Wu Zhong’s Bell has also come?!” Lin Fan was greatly alarmed, feeling a strange sense of dread.

Unfortunately, only one character was visible; another ancient character on the bell’s body was blurred and indistinct.

But he knew more, and he could still deduce that it was highly likely the Dao trace left in the heavens and earth by that bell.

“Dong!”

The bell rang loudly, shattering all obstacles, even twisting space and time. Its power was incredibly terrifying.

“Damn it, this is an Immortal King artifact, how did I encounter it!”

Lin Fan couldn’t help but curse. Even though he knew this was just an imprint, it was not something a Cultivator at Array Formation Perfection could contend with.

Heaven wants me dead!

However, even now, he still dared to throw a punch, attacking the large bell. This was a kind of belief, and also a desire for survival, a firm belief in himself!

Fortunately, the large bell was not unconquerable, its power was not as strong as imagined, suppressed to the same level, otherwise he would be in a coffin.

Even so, this battle was arduous, a bloody struggle that lasted a long time. Lin Fan relied on his tenacious vitality to barely endure it, forcing it to retreat.

But at this moment, lightning erupted again, catching him off guard, shattering his bones and breaking his Physical Body, almost killing him.

“It’s bad, with such severe injuries, how will he pass the remaining two Lightning Tribulations!” someone exclaimed.

“Junior… Brother!” Yue Chan looked incredibly nervous and anxious, but there was nothing she could do.

Once the Heavenly Tribulation began, it couldn’t be stopped. It was either death or passing through; there were only these two outcomes.

Others also couldn’t interfere, otherwise they would undergo the tribulation together, with even more unpredictable consequences.

“Holy Healing Heavenly Light!”

Lin Fan gritted his teeth and once again used his immortal bone to heal his injuries. A green light shone, intercepting endless Origin essence, full of vitality.

In an instant, his bones reshaped, broken flesh regenerated and healed together, and his essence, Qi, and spirit all recovered, returning to their Peak.

“Hoo…”

He took a deep breath. Fortunately, he had an extra bone; no matter how severe his injuries were, as long as he didn’t die, one healing spell would immediately make him better.

With a whoosh, he leaped to another layer of Heaven, entering a brand new Domain. But this time, no creatures or weapons appeared; instead, it began to snow.

This made him pause. Goose-feather snow fell from the sky. Although it carried a chilling Qi and was bone-chillingly cold, he could still endure it, and it didn’t seem so dangerous.

“No, this snow is strange!” Suddenly, Lin Fan became alert, noticing something unusual. This was the Eighth Heaven, how could it be easy?

“Crack!”

Soon, when the snowflakes fell on Lin Fan, not only did lightning erupt and the cold Qi was pressing, but they were also incredibly heavy, like an ancient divine mountain crashing down.

“Pfft!”

Lin Fan was sent flying, coughing up large mouthfuls of blood. Every snowflake was bizarre; they looked ordinary, but their force was terrifyingly immense.

“It’s indeed not that simple!”
