Zhang Yi"s spear was also now in the holy rank and could greatly diminish the lightning strength of the tribulation and so Zhang Yi"s new technique would only have to take away some of the tribulation"s attacking power so that he could survive quietly.Zhang Yi naturally hoped that he might be seriously injured again, but he was confident of surviving after creating this technique, after which the next tribulation would take dozens of years and Zhang Yi did not know if a celestial tribulation could have a stronger attack than that the divine realm.
So after leaving his mental energy world, Zhang Yi became invisible and left the sect and then teleported as far as possible from any sect, a celestial tribulation with the force of divine realm would draw the attention of the whole divine plane if not it was well hidden and far away from all sects.
After preparing Zhang Yi began cultivating and within minutes arrived at the Realm of Emptiness, soon after a huge cloud of spiritual energy began to form near him, even Zhang Yi was startled by the force of this cloud that looked like a hurricane sucking all over the spiritual energy hundreds of miles near where he was.
Zhang Yi then used the dragon scales that increased his defense by 6 times, then used the tortoise s.h.i.+eld technique to increase his defense by three times, and lastly used the celestial armor technique that increased his defense by 2 times and the attack power of this tribulation was almost halved.
Zhang Yi also took the holy-rank spear he had as an a.s.set to survive this celestial tribulation and soon used his new defensive technique of the s.h.i.+eld of chaos to try to diminish the offensive power of this tribulation.
Just before the celestial tribulation began Zhang Yi saw something he could never imagine happening, the clouds that formed the celestial tribulation began to form a barrier below and around where Zhang Yi was.
After being surprised, Zhang Yi realized that the attacking power of this tribulation could destroy part of the terrain they were in even after Zhang Yi defended himself from most of the tribulation"s attack power.
So the heavenly tribulation seemed like a conscious being and decided to create a barrier around it so as not to harm the divine plane, Zhang Yi naturally liked it because it would be so much harder for the divine realm elders to realize this tribulation happening.
Even though it was unexpected for Zhang Yi for something like this to happen, soon after the first lightning bolt of the water laws fell on him, Zhang Yi was afraid when he saw the power of this tribulation.
The lightning weakened long after pa.s.sing through his celestial armor, but far more than half of the attacking power remained, it seemed that just as Zhang Yi expected the difference in cultivation and the supreme understanding of the laws was not enough to take half of the power of tribulation attack.
And that was just the first lightning bolt and then it would only get stronger after going through the celestial armor. Zhang Yi didn"t want to risk it and soon used his spear, just as Zhang Yi hoped a legendary holy-rank spear can withstand much of the heavenly tribulation.
Then the tribulation still hit him hard, but with all his defense Zhang Yi still managed to get through the first tribulation without being hurt, he can"t even use the s.h.i.+eld of chaos in that first tribulation.
But seeing how much qi he lost to resist this heavenly tribulation Zhang Yi decided that it was better to fully use this technique and thus preserve a little more qi, so the second lightning bolt of tribulation fell on Zhang Yi with the laws of wood.
Again the celestial armor can take away much of the tribulation"s attack power, soon after Zhang Yi used his s.h.i.+eld of chaos to know exactly how strong his defensive technique was.
As the lightning of the tribulation fell on the s.h.i.+eld of chaos, a huge light began to appear as the two forces faced each other, not even Zhang Yi expected this kind of situation, but he did not lose concentration and continued to use his s.h.i.+eld of chaos.
The laws of time and s.p.a.ce as Zhang Yi hoped could better resist and disrupt the tribulation, but the other 8 laws, including the wood element laws, helped to reduce the attack power of this tribulation.
When the lightning struck through Zhang Yi"s s.h.i.+eld of chaos he used the spear only to realize that much of the lightning had disappeared after pa.s.sing through the chaos s.h.i.+eld, so only with the spear can he defend himself from tribulation.
It surprised even Zhang Yi who was the creator of this technique, the effectiveness of the s.h.i.+eld of chaos was that the laws he used in that s.h.i.+eld lost owners.h.i.+p of the laws and turned into defensive energy to protect Zhang Yi.
In addition, he used only mental energy to control this technique and the laws of the environment, yet spending almost nothing of his qi and mental energy, it seemed that this technique, as well as the celestial armor technique, was much more effective against attacks of laws.
Part of the spiritual lightning bolt of the tribulation was in the s.h.i.+eld mixed with the energy of chaos and so the attack power diminished greatly, Zhang Yi was very happy because it meant that it was much easier to survive the tribulation in this way.
The other lightning bolts of the tribulation fell on Zhang Yi and grew stronger and stronger, the fifth lightning bolt with the metal laws managed to pa.s.s through the s.h.i.+eld of chaos, the spear and spent a lot of Zhang Yi qi before disappearing without hurting him.
Luckily Zhang Yi was smart and since the first lightning had pa.s.sed he had already used a qi recovery pill that was active all the time, so the last lightning struck Zhang Yi with the lightning laws.
Tore through his celestial armor and lost much of his power, and then through his chaos s.h.i.+eld losing even more power, Zhang Yi"s holy-rank spear had much more resistance to this lightning and could handle much more than before.
Even with all this lightning striking too hard on Zhang Yi, he activated all of his remaining defensive techniques to the full and yet the lightning hurt him while he spent too much of his qi.
Zhang Yi didn"t take any chances and even losing more when he used his supportive domain technique that healed him while the lightning hurt him more and more, Zhang Yi also took a wound healing pill while willingly holding on to the last lightning.
After the lightning pa.s.sed Zhang Yi was very injured, but this time was much better than last time and he still had qi to recover more from his injuries, Zhang Yi was still afraid after this heavenly tribulation.
He could not imagine how anyone other than himself could survive this powerful tribulation with the force of a divine realm warrior and Zhang Yi was sure that at least the third level of the divine realm was the force of this heavenly tribulation.
If he had not created a new defensive technique as strong and effective against the lightning of tribulation as this he would surely have died in this celestial tribulation, in the next tribulation he would have to reach the peak understanding in at least two laws to risk reaching the Emperor realm.
After all, now he had someone"s attack strength on the peak of the emperor realm because of the essence of the phoenix flame, but once he reached the emperor realm the essence of the phoenix flame would no longer increase his attack strength and so was not very useful for him to hurry to reach the Emperor realm and die in the celestial tribulation.
This time after a few hours he can recover enough and then teleported away from this place and into his mental energy world, shortly after Zhang Yi left three divine realm elders appeared where he had the heavenly tribulation.
These warriors had felt a great concentration of spiritual energy in this place and much destructive power and so came as fast as they could using the laws of s.p.a.ce.
