Chapter 1175: Breakthrough, Peak Immortal King
The old devil never thought that he would actually become someone else’s cultivation tool!
Especially to him, the heavenly tribulation that was extremely important to his life had actually become someone else’s cultivation tool.
Just thinking about it made him feel extremely aggrieved. What was even more aggrieved was that even if this was the case, he could only let it be and had no way to fight back.
At the very least, Lu Xuan could guarantee that he would not die immediately. It was better to be alive than dead. At this moment, it was vividly displayed.
At this moment, the old devil’s heart was filled with endless regret. Why did he choose to come here to undergo the tribulation? From his point of view, Lu Xuan’s terror was already not inferior to that of the Seven Great Demon Kings from hell.
At this moment, in the sky, there was another burst of wind and thunder. The originally thunder-filled sky actually transformed into a sky full of weapons. Knives, spears, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks, all sorts of eighteen types of weapons fell down.
Countless people in the distant Zhao province saw this scene and were almost scared to death. Although heavenly tribulations weren’t very common, it wasn’t as though they had never heard of heavenly tribulations.
This kind of mutated heavenly tribulation that transformed into weapons was something they had never seen before.
“Is this the heavenly tribulation of the celestial lord?” An immortal king felt cold sweat dripping down his back as he asked.
They had never seen such a terrifying heavenly tribulation before. It was so powerful that it seemed as though it could destroy the entire world.
What was even more terrifying was that the 18 types of weapons transformed from the lightning tribulation weren’t as simple as just transforming into weapons. Each of the weapons contained a supreme martial art as they directly cleaved down.
Each of them was equivalent to the might of a peak-stage immortal king cleaving down with all his might.
One could very well imagine how terrifying this was. Even for an existence like the old devil who was close to breaking through to the imperial lord realm, this was an extremely terrifying heavenly tribulation.
In the air, Lu Xuan didn’t hesitate at all. He was extremely clear about what the Imperial Heavenly Tribulation was. He had experienced it in his previous life.
The cultivation base of this old devil was much weaker compared to his previous life when he was at the same cultivation level. The intensity of the heavenly tribulation wasn’t comparable to the one Lu Xuan faced back then. No wonder the old devil didn’t cause much of a commotion in his previous life, most probably, he was killed by the heavenly tribulation of the Emperor Lord.
These eighteen types of weapons transformed into all sorts of martial arts and directly rained down with boundless might. This meant that Lu Xuan had to face the simultaneous attacks of many immortal kings.
How could ordinary immortal kings face the attacks of many immortal kings at the same level? Hence, they had no hope of becoming imperial lords in this life. On the other hand, those who could become imperial lords were definitely not ordinary immortal kings. They had to be the cream of the crop among immortal kings, freaks among immortal kings.
Even if they were ordinary immortal kings, in the eyes of ordinary cultivators, they were already freaks. They were already the chosen ones.
But at the level of imperial emperors, they were still far from enough!
Fortunately, Lu Xuan was already prepared. The primal chaos heaven-suppressing bell above his head suppressed everything and allowed him to make his move calmly.
“Boom!”
Lu Xuan shattered a saber-shaped lightning bolt that was loaded with terrifying saber intent. Moreover, he absorbed the lightning power within into his body.
In the next instant, Lu Xuan appeared in another place and once again shattered a lightning bolt that was loaded with blade’s will.
“Army obliteration seven slashes!”
Lu Xuan shouted loudly and blasted out an army obliteration seven slashes. Instantly, thousands of lightning bolts were shattered into pure lightning power and were immediately absorbed into Lu Xuan’s body.
But at the same time, thousands of terrifying attacks directly blasted into Lu Xuan’s body, causing his body to be covered in blood.
Although Lu Xuan’s fleshly body was incomparably tyrannical, he wasn’t a peak-stage immortal king after all. Each of these attacks was equivalent to a full-force attack from an immortal king. Tens of thousands of attacks landed on Lu Xuan, causing him to suffer heavy injuries in an instant.
But in the next instant, Lu Xuan recovered to his peak and once again joined the battle. He had already developed his innate born taoism aptitude to the immortal king level. Not only was his strength shocking, his recovery ability was also shocking.
Even if Lu Xuan didn’t use the phoenix regeneration technique, just the recovery ability of his born taoism aptitude was already shocking enough.
As long as he had a single cell, he would be able to be reborn sooner or later!
Lu Xuan’s figure in the sky, fighting against the heavenly tribulation, was like a god in the eyes of countless people. Even the immortal kings felt reverence for him.
“How terrifying. If he can survive, there would probably be another invincible king in this world!”
“Yes, an invincible king!”
“Such a character might not appear even once in a hundred thousand years!”
The group of Immortal Kings nodded in agreement. Even among immortal kings, there were differences in strength. and other than peak-stage immortal kings, there was another level that very few people could reach, and that was the unrivalled immortal king level.
That was an existence that stood above peak-stage immortal kings and was unrivalled even among immortal kings. Such an immortal king was simply a weapon of mass destruction on the battlefield. Other than the celestial lord, there was basically no other opponent.
In fact, there was another name for them, the celestial lord couldn’t be killed!
Even for an existence like the celestial lord, there was no way to directly kill an unrivalled king!
Such an immortal king was hard to come by even in a hundred thousand years. One of them was almost a seedling of a future celestial lord. The last time such a character appeared, it seemed to be because of the son-in-law of the Shi clan, the lifelong immortal king.
Although Lu Xuan had yet to cultivate to the peak-stage of the Immortal King realm, he was already filled with such energy.
Lu Xuan didn’t know what the people below thought of him. He was merely absorbing the energy from the heavenly tribulation unceasingly. The lightning energy from a random heavenly tribulation was at least equivalent to thousands of immortal essence pills, or even thousands of immortal essence pills.
It was a free gift. How could Lu Xuan let it go? Even if it was a fleece of the Heavenly Dao, he would still take it.
Under such circumstances, his cultivation was improving at a speed visible to the naked eye. Lu Xuan was also immersed in this rare battle.
He could fight with all his might. He did not have to worry that it would affect living beings, and he did not have to worry that the other party was too weak and would be killed by him with a slap. He also did not have to worry that the other party was too strong and that he was not his opponent.
He could use all his strength to fight.
Lu Xuan’s body was blasted apart and recovered. He was blasted apart again and again, and even his divine kingdom was blasted apart several times.
Time ticked by, a total of ten days passed. Under this heavenly tribulation, Lu Xuan, who was undergoing the tribulations unceasingly, suddenly let out a long howl.
The cultivation strength in his body increased frenziedly, it was as though he broke through a certain limit in an instant, entering another level.
Lu Xuan stopped his actions and exhaled a breath of air. He finally broke through, from the late-stage of the Immortal King Realm to the peak-stage of the Immortal King Realm.
After several hundred years of cultivation, he reached perfection and climbed to the peak of the heavenly realm. He was truly only below the imperial emperor.
