Chapter 663: Chapter 663 – Enemy’s Attack
With a rumble, the virtual shadow of the divine weapons appeared in all directions but was suppressed by a s.h.i.+ning ancient sword.
As time pa.s.sed, both Chen Heng and the ancient sword transformed, emitting shockingly powerful auras. Compared to before, as they were transforming in this mighty lightning tribulation, they absorbed the laws and Dao rhymes that emerged from the lightning tribulation to strengthen their bodies continuously, enabling their foundations to reach a new level.
This was an extremely shocking tempering. Although they looked somewhat miserable now, they would obtain incredible gains after this tribulation was over. Their Dao paths would advance even further, obtaining even more shocking transformations.
In reality, this great tribulation had already reached the point where it was about to end.
“How shocking! He has transcended this great tribulation.” People in the surroundings sighed softly as they felt the changes in the lightning tribulation and could already predict what would happen next.
Now that the lightning tribulation had come to this point, and the most powerful moment had already pa.s.sed, they only needed to endure it slowly and transcend it. Based on Chen Heng’s preparation and performance, this process would not have any problems. It would be over very quickly.
“That divine sword is amazing. It was not at a disadvantage when it collided with the heaven-cleaving sword’s virtual shadow.” Some people looked at the ancient sword in Chen Heng’s hand and sighed, “After this disaster is over, the Hao Hua Sect will have one more supreme Heavenly Venerate and a Legacy Holy Weapon.”
As they spoke, the people around looked at the group of people from the Hao Hua Sect in the distance and could not help but feel envious. The Legacy Holy Weapon was a t.i.tle for a divine weapon at a supreme Heavenly Venerate level. Only the personal weapons of those supreme Heavenly Venerate were qualified to be owned and pa.s.sed down. Moreover, not every supreme Heavenly Venerate level could have a Legacy Holy Weapon pa.s.sed down.
This was because a divine weapon would have to undergo a tribulation if it wanted to reach the level of a supreme Heavenly Venerate. Only after nine consecutive armed tribulations could one reach a supreme Heavenly Venerate level.
This condition was already a hindrance to many people. After all, one had to rely on oneself to overcome the tribulation. Therefore, although the supreme Heavenly Venerates were amazing, they must be peerless powerhouses with unparalleled talent to cultivate to that level continuously.
However, their weapons might not be able to do so. Even with the support of the supreme Heavenly Venerate, the weapon spirits of many divine weapons could only transcend the seventh armed tribulation. Even the number of divine weapons that pa.s.sed the eighth armed tribulation was rare.
It could not be called a Legacy Holy Weapon but was only an ordinary holy weapon. Therefore, although it was also rare, it could not sustain the holy land’s inheritance.
In this world, one also needed a Legacy Holy Weapon to be truly called a holy land and have the inheritance of immortals G.o.ds. Although the Hao Hua Sect was also known as one of the holy lands in the past, there was not a single Legacy Holy Weapon in it. Even holy weapons were very rare.
However, today, that ancient sword would transform into a Legacy Holy Weapon after this tribulation. The Hao Hua Sect finally deserved the name of the holy land. It was not only a Legacy Holy Weapon but also a supreme Heavenly Venerate who had just been promoted, having a long life and extremely powerful Qi blood.
“The Hao Hua Sect is going to rise…” The people around sighed as this thought flashed through their minds.
Everyone present could see the rise of the Hao Hua Sect.
This living supreme Heavenly Venerate was an incomparable power in the current cultivation world. No one could compare to him as long as the immortals and G.o.ds who existed in the legends did not appear.
In the distance, the people of the Hao Hua Sect also understood this point and were smiling brightly. Even the most gloomy people were also very happy and excited.
The tribulation before them had gradually declined. Finally, after half a month, the absolute power of this tribulation was about to decline and gradually come to an end.
“Finally, it is coming to an end?” Chen Heng thought as he looked up at the sky and watched the lightning fade away.
This great tribulation had lasted for more than a month. After such a long time, even though Chen Heng had acc.u.mulated a lot, he could not help but feel a deep sense of exhaustion, as if his entire body had been hollowed out. Although his aura was still powerful, his divine power and spirit had been exhausted, and he was close to the end of his life.
Fortunately, the lightning tribulation in the sky finally pa.s.sed and slowly dissipated. Once again, a dense purple power of creation appeared in the sky, containing many runes that emerged like living creatures.
In reality, this was pure Power of Laws, which was also the best reward for cultivators. It was the greatest natural creation, which was precious even to Chen Heng. It could make his cultivation more stable and make the divine power in his body grow, becoming more complete and powerful. Even if the G.o.ds of the world of G.o.ds came, they would probably be jealous and fight over it, not to mention Chen Heng.
And now, it was time to reap the rewards. A faint smile appeared on Chen Heng’s face as he looked at the power of creation before him. Then, he charged forward and absorbed it, using it to recover his body.
His aura slowly spread in all directions during this process, like a supreme G.o.d. It was exceptionally terrifying and powerful, giving people a sense of terror. Feeling the terrifying rhyme, the Heavenly Venerates gathered in the surroundings were shocked.
Fortunately, this feeling came and went quickly. Chen Heng hid his aura and did not reveal it completely to the outside world. Otherwise, this continent would probably collapse and would not be able to bear its unparalleled aura.
He sat cross-legged in the void quietly, absorbing the power of the purple natural creation to evolve his Dao Principles, digested his gains from the lightning tribulation and silently improved himself. The surrounding powerhouses looked at Chen Heng enviously.
The power of the purple natural creation was so enormous and shocking that he would be able to transform from a mortal with no cultivation base into a peerless Heavenly Venerate if he could absorb all of it. One could see how terrifying it was.
Such a natural creation moved everyone. However, even so, no one dared to have any evil thoughts. On the one hand, the scene of Chen Heng attacking earlier still appeared before them. His power was undefeatable. Even if they dared to attack, they would probably die, not being able to withstand a sword strike from him.
On the other hand was the mechanism of the heavenly tribulation itself. The great tribulation originated and ended with the cultivator himself, locked on from the beginning to the end. The power of creation after the great tribulation was also locked on to a certain extent.
If Chen Heng was unwilling to share it, he could make the power of creation dissipate with a single thought. The others would not be able to obtain it at all and could only be envious.
However, they never expected that someone still made a move under such circ.u.mstances where no one could make a move. Then, after the great tribulation had pa.s.sed and everything had dissipated, a change began to appear in the air. A pair of eyes appeared, hidden in the void.
There was no mercy in the pair of eyes, only absolute indifference, and ruthlessness. It was as if there was not the slightest bit of humanity. It was filled with a sense of superiority as if he was an immortal G.o.d.
He appeared in mid-air and looked forward. Then, his gaze gradually focused on Chen Heng. Sensing the aura on Chen Heng’s body, this pair of eyes looked inexplicable, as if he was thinking.
Chen Heng silently sat cross-legged in mid-air. He absorbed various Gen Qi from the outside world, using it to recover his strength and replenish the divine power that was already exhausted.
This process should not have been too unexpected. After all, the supreme Heavenly Venerate of this world was extinct. Even if there were Heavenly Venerates left, they could not pose any threat to him. Even if other holy lands brought out holy weapons to obstruct his path, it would be useless.
Under a situation where the situation was a foregone conclusion, there should not be anyone making a move. It was just that Chen Heng was wrong. Deadly killing intent appeared and charged toward Chen Heng at a certain moment.
Chen Heng’s sharp spiritual aura surged and leaped crazily, reminding him. Destiny started to burn, and the Mark of Destiny was also illuminating, showing him a corner of the future, indicating something. Chen Heng was startled awake and quickly moved instantly.
A terrifying power appeared before him and attacked him. The timing of this attack was great, happening at the weakened stage after Chen Heng transcended the tribulation when his entire body’s divine power and spirit were exhausted, and his prowess was feeble.
The attack was exceptionally ruthless, cutting off his physical body and divine spirit as if it wanted to destroy Chen Heng from this world. Moreover, its power was terrifying. Based on Chen Heng’s senses, it wasn’t weaker than when the great tribulation was at its peak.
Bang!
Chen Heng attacked at such a critical moment. His body emitted immortal light, and dense runes circulated his body, sustaining it. Meanwhile, the ancient sword shone beside him. Chen Heng quickly borrowed its power to support his body. Then, after a short period of sublimation, it erupted with its most powerful attack.
Bang!
A terrifying collision sounded and exploded. The s.p.a.ce before him was completely smashed into a void. Countless pieces flew everywhere, causing a terrifying impact on this world.
Chen Heng’s body was also sent flying. Unfortunately, he was completely unable to block it, and his entire body was almost smashed into pieces.
