Chapter 570: Rolling Heavenly Thunder

In that instant, a powerful and terrifying pressure erupted from within Xiao Fan, constantly shooting out in all directions!

*Boom*…

*Rumble*…

Waves of powerful and terrifying air currents shook the surroundings; the commotion from Xiao Fan's every Breakthrough was always massive.

Previously, when he made the Breakthrough from the Tongtian Realm to the Xuandan Realm, it was inside a Secret Realm, so it hadn't caused any commotion.

But this time in Kyushu, his Breakthrough was not recognized by the heavens and earth!

Waves of terrifying pressure surged, causing the Arena to crumble and nearby buildings to collapse one after another.

Or rather, at this moment, the ground in Longwu City was cracking and buildings were collapsing; if things worsened, by the time Xiao Fan successfully completed his Breakthrough, the entire city would be destroyed along with it.

"Is this… the end of the world?!"

"Quick, run!"

"My god… how can it be so terrifying!!"

The surrounding onlookers immediately fled, ignoring the city's no-fly rule as they escaped through the air!

They had no choice; it was too dangerous.

The Heavenly Thunder hadn't even descended yet, but the terrifying Aura emanating from Xiao Fan alone was enough to shock them to their cores!

In the Arena, Yuan Jingtian was dumbfounded…

He was a thousand feet away from Xiao Fan, yet he was pushed back dozens of feet by the pressure Xiao Fan had just generated before he could barely steady himself!

"This… how can he!" Yuan Jingtian looked at Xiao Fan in disbelief.

The other party was a Prodigy to a hair-raising degree!

"Jingtian, leave." City Lord Ming Long of Longwu City sent a voice transmission, gesturing for Yuan Jingtian to go first.

Xiao Fan's Heavenly Tribulation hadn't even descended yet, and there was already such a terrifying commotion.

What if the Heavenly Tribulation actually descended?

He estimated that everything within dozens of miles around the Arena was basically doomed to destruction!

What was most infuriating was that only his City Lord's Manor was around the Arena; the buildings being destroyed all belonged to him!

This made City Lord Ming Long's face turn ashen; he planned to activate Longwu City's grand Formation to block the Heavenly Thunder.

In fact, City Lord Ming Long didn't realize that the reason Xiao Fan chose to Breakthrough now was partly because he was no match for Yuan Jingtian, and partly because no one lived in the immediate vicinity, so he dared to risk it.

If he broke through in a densely populated area, it would surely result in a massacre, which was not something he wanted to see.

Life was worthy of respect.

"All City Lords, pour your spiritual power into this Magic Array to block the Heavenly Thunder!" City Lord Ming Long shouted, chanting a mantra to activate the defensive Formation of Longwu City.

Fortunately, the Arena area was not far from the entrance of the City Lord's Manor.

This allowed Longwu City's defensive Formation to exert its maximum power.

In the Yihuang Province, all large cities have such defensive Formations for emergencies!

City Lord Ming Long had forgotten how many centuries it had been since he last used this Formation, yet he ended up using it today.

City Lord Du Ling and the others from Linze City gaped in surprise; no one expected Xiao Fan to choose to Breakthrough during the competition.

Furthermore, the commotion it caused was so terrifying that it made them all feel their hair stand on end, trembling and wanting to flee…

Hearing City Lord Ming Long's voice, City Lord Du Ling snapped out of his shock. A white light screen appeared before him, enveloping the surrounding dozens of miles with Xiao Fan at the center.

City Lord Du Ling and the city lords of the other sixty-three cities began to continuously pour spiritual power into it to activate and maintain the Magic Array.

City Lord Ming Long was in charge of the eye of the Formation, controlling the Magic Array.

The experts from the Longwu City Lord's Manor also took action, including the old man who had previously presided over the competition; they all poured spiritual power frantically into the Formation!

Xiao Fan was currently sitting cross-legged, no longer having the energy to listen to the surrounding sounds.

From the moment the Five Elements Spirit Pill shattered, spiritual power five times beyond his own limit emerged, causing his Golden Core to swell five times its size instantly!

"Ah!!"

Xiao Fan shouted loudly as the Heavenly Thunder within the Thunderclouds was about to strike down.

*Swish*

This Heavenly Thunder was incredibly terrifying, as thick as a water vat, striking down upon Xiao Fan like a thunder Dragon.

A Heavenly Tribulation cannot be avoided, and no one can interfere with it, not even Zhangsun Ning with her Yuding Realm cultivation.

By now, she had already moved far away from the sky above Xiao Fan, appearing dozens of miles away, watching Xiao Fan within the Formation.

"Such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation. Whether you can survive it depends on your own fortune," Zhangsun Ning murmured to herself.

A Heavenly Tribulation is the punishment of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, an execution of those who might pose a threat to the heavens!

The power of this Heavenly Tribulation descending on Xiao Fan was only at the Pi Hai Realm.

With Zhangsun Ning's strength, she could indeed block these lightning bolts.

But if she intervened, the Heavenly Thunder would instantly escalate to the Yuding Realm or even stronger!

When that time came, let alone Xiao Fan, even she would surely die!

This bolt of Heavenly Thunder struck Xiao Fan instantly!

Unlike ordinary lightning, its power was ten thousand times greater, determined to execute Xiao Fan between heaven and earth.

Struck by this thunder, Xiao Fan's entire body trembled; he knew the Heavenly Thunder was terrifying, but he hadn't expected it to be this fearsome.

Xiao Fan's brow furrowed and his face turned ashen as his clothes were reduced to ashes by the Heavenly Thunder.

Now naked, with his muscular physique exposed, he sat cross-legged within the Formation, waiting for the next bolt of Heavenly Thunder to fall.

Because of the interference from the previous Heavenly Thunder, the shattering of Xiao Fan's Golden Core was delayed by half a step!

"Shatter for me!"

Xiao Fan shouted once again!

For a Xuandan Realm Cultivator, as long as the Golden Core does not shatter, the Divine Soul will not perish.

But to reach the Yuanhun Realm from the Xuandan Realm, the first thing one must do is shatter their own Golden Core!

Thereby condensing one's Primordial Spirit, emerging from the Golden Core like a butterfly from a cocoon!

*Rumble*

Another bolt of Heavenly Thunder fell, thicker and even more terrifying than before!
