Chapter 1667: True City-Level Carpet Bombing
Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu
The Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Combined Magical Treasure was a complete set of Eighth Stage equipment.
Since it was a life-bound magical treasure, its strength and quality definitely surpa.s.sed those of ordinary magical treasures.
And because it was a combined magical treasure, its strength and quality were definitely improved even further after it was a.s.sembled.
Theoretically speaking, even if the ‘Impregnable Holy City’ was only at the Eighth Stage beginner level, as long as it was provided with enough spiritual energy, it would be able to defend against attacks at the peak of the Eighth Stage when in its combined state.
As long as there was enough spiritual energy, Lightning Palms of this level wouldn’t be able to break through its defense.
Unfortunately, Song Shuhang’s realm was only at the Fifth Stage, and even with his eight cores, he could only provide a limited amount of spiritual energy.
Besides… he was poor and had no spirit stones. So he had no way to go about burning spirit stones to supply the Holy City with spiritual energy.
“In the end, it still comes down to me being too poor,” Song Shuhang said sadly. “If only I had brought in Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword…”
Now that it was fully charged, Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword could definitely fend off these Lightning Palms.
However… Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword would be considered foreign a.s.sistance in the end. If it were to become involved in the heavenly tribulation, the power of the tribulation would increase by several times, and everyone who was transcending the tribulation would simply die faster.
“Crack, crack~”
The sound of metal being distorted echoed. Yet, the Dragon Scale s.h.i.+elds were successfully able to block the two Lightning Palms, and the aftermath of the clash between the heavenly tribulation and Dragon Scale s.h.i.+elds was blocked by the Impregnable Holy City.
Song Shuhang and Li Yinzhu below were safe and sound.
Song Shuhang exhaled slightly.
This time, he was completely unprepared for transcending the tribulation.
One of his trump cards, the virtuous lamia’s ‘flat imperial hat’, hadn’t been recharged yet—he really needed to ask the ‘Almighty Merchant’ if there was a quick way to recharge it.
With no extra spirit stones on his person, he couldn’t support the Impregnable Holy City in its Eighth Stage Mode for long.
Since he had no spirit stones, the ‘G.o.d Slaying Cannon’ that Senior White Two had given him back then was also useless.
The Inner World, his life-saving trump card, was always inaccessible when he was in the ‘Heavenly Tribulation Realm’.
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword could not be brought over and used.
It was just one hit after the other.
“Virtuous Giant Sun!” Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s loud roar could be heard from the side.
At the next moment, a dazzling light of virtue erupted from its body, turning into a small sun.
The over 300 Lightning Palms that were heading towards it all exploded.
The light of virtue dissipated, and Sage Monarch Melon Eater maintained a hands-clasped posture, not receiving any injuries.
Its strength had improved a lot compared to a few months ago!
The benefits of abandoning its old body and gaining a ‘pure virtuous body’ were beyond one’s imagination.
❄️❄️❄️
After Sage Monarch Melon Eater destroyed the over 300 ‘Lightning Palms’ with the Virtuous Giant Sun, another loud boom sounded in the sky.
In the next moment, all the clouds in the sky that Song Shuhang and Sage Monarch Melon Eater could see with their naked eyes gathered together.
In the end, the tribulation clouds turned into a big hand that covered the sky.
Tribulation lightning condensed in this big hand, turning into a crackling Lightning Palm.
In this Lightning Palm, there was the power of the five tribulation elements, the weird temptations of the inner demon tribulation, and even a faint feeling of s.p.a.ce being cut. Not only that, there seemed to be a series of ‘laws’ that had condensed and merged into this ‘Lightning Palm’.
Song Shuhang gulped.
This Lightning Palm was roughly the size of a city.
Compared to this Lightning Palm, Song Shuhang’s body wouldn’t even be equivalent to a speck of dust.
Was this a joke? If this thing were to smash down, it would be no different from a city-level carpet bombing, which could erase a city without a problem.
Even an ‘enhanced heavenly tribulation nuclear bomb’ was not comparable in power to this Lightning Palm.
Moreover, in terms of how shocking it was visually, this supergiant Lightning Palm was 1,000 times worse.
It showed why the Eighth and Ninth Stage heavenly tribulations had to be transcended in a special s.p.a.ce. If a heavenly tribulation of this level were to appear in the main world, it would simply be a doomsday-level catastrophe.
Sage Monarch Melon Eater solemnly said, “The time has come for me to go all out.”
It changed its body, reverting to its small island-sized body.
However, compared with the ‘Lightning Palm’ in the sky, Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s body was still tiny.
Sage Monarch Melon Eater said, “This level of power should be equivalent to a full-power strike of a full-fledged Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender. Generally speaking, this kind of attack shouldn’t even appear in the Ninth Stage heavenly tribulation.
“…Unless the one transcending the tribulation was a cultivator who possessed Ninth Stage combat power while in the Eighth Stage as only then would someone encounter a heavenly tribulation of this level.
“Moreover, even if it was that kind of character, this attack would only appear at the end of the heavenly tribulation as its final strike. It appears that the heavenly tribulation today is quite enthusiastic.”
Sage Monarch Melon Eater was definitely not that kind of peerless genius… At least, it felt that its current strength had yet to reach the Ninth Stage.
I’m afraid that the enhanced heavenly tribulation is about to reveal its sharp claws
As expected, the heavenly tribulation was cruel beyond imagination.
Soon after, Sage Monarch Melon Eater prompted Song Shuhang, “I’m not sure whether I’ll be able to resist this attack. Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song, go all out!”
Song Shuhang responded, “I feel that… even if I try my best, it won’t matter much.”
Having said that, Song Shuhang did not panic when faced with this City-Level Carpet Bombing.
Having died so many times, his tenacity and composure had truly risen to a great degree.
He didn’t give up, and he was still thinking about a solution.
Song Shuhang asked, “Fairy Waiting for a Promise, if you have enough power of virtue, would you be able to block this attack?”
Fairy @#%× sang, “Of course I chose to forgive her~”
“…” Song Shuhang.
Hmm, although it sounded completely unrelated, Song Shuhang could roughly understand what she meant.
She likely meant that if she did have enough energy, then it was possible.
“Rumble!”
In the sky, the City-Wide Lightning Palm came cras.h.i.+ng down.
“Virtuous Giant Sun!” Sage Monarch Melon Eater roared as light of virtue exploded out from its body.
The small sun of virtue rose once again.
The volume of the small sun continuously increased, and in a short time, it was half the size of the supergiant Lightning Palm in the sky.
Giant Lightning Palm vs Virtuous Giant Sun.
The violent shock wave almost sent Song Shuhang and others flying.
“d.a.m.n, it’s over!” Suddenly, Sage Monarch Melon Eater shouted in the air.
“?” Song Shuhang.
Sage Monarch Melon Eater gritted its teeth, and said, “I was disturbed by a weird voice. This isn’t an inner demon, what is this…?”
In the next moment, it was pressed down by the heavenly tribulation Lightning Palm.
The Lightning Palm broke through the small sun of virtue, completely crus.h.i.+ng it.
What followed was the small island-sized Melon Eater and the giant Lightning Palm falling from the air.
“Fairy Waiting for a Promise, ready your virtuous possession mode,” Song Shuhang said.
All-in! If we win, we live; if we lose, I’m ready to write a will.
