Chapter 738 - 738 Dire Straits
Shun Long"s body trembled violently the moment the crimson bolt of Heavenly Tribulation pierced through his head, before a wave of indescribable pain a.s.saulted him.
As soon as the red lightning bolt entered his body, Shun Long"s entire spiritual s.p.a.ce shook and was almost instantly brought to the verge of collapse, as the crimson lightning bolt plunged directly inside his spiritual sea.
Shun Long could feel a soul tearing pain ripping him apart, as his spiritual sea didn"t even have enough time to raise waves of spiritual power to attack the crimson bolt of Heavenly Tribulation before he was attacked directly.
Shun Long could sense his vast spiritual power that had even exceeded that of a peak rank 9 Dao King"s being depleted at a terrifying rate, as the crimson lightning bolt wreaked havoc inside his spiritual sea.
Forget about the fact that Shun Long only had 50 percent of his spiritual power left intact since he had already dealt with the previous set of 9 bolts of white lightning previously, even if he was at his peak state, the chances of surviving the a.s.sault of this crimson bolt of Heavenly Tribulation would have been less than 10 percent!
Inside the "Stone of Time", Little Black and Little Silver could both sense Shun Long"s predicament, but both the black dragon and the silver-winged panther remained completely silent, as they endured with red eyes.
The slightest distraction could easily push Shun Long to his own death.
However, there was nothing that the 2 magic beasts could do, as with every pa.s.sing moment, Shun Long"s situation became even grimmer and grimmer.
His aura was rapidly turning weaker while his spiritual power was being "eaten" away by the crimson lightning bolt.
A few moments later, Shun Long"s spiritual sea was only left with less than 20 percent of his spiritual strength, but the crimson bolt of Heavenly Tribulation that had already endured the "Time Siphon" and the effects of the "Monarch"s Domain" previously, had more than 70 percent of its original power left.
""Master... if you die today... I swear on my life that I will definitely ascend to the Immortal Dimension and kill old man Ji myself before I come to accompany you! Together in life, together in death!""
A horrifying aura of anger and killing intent erupted from Little Black"s body at that moment, making Little Silver who was watching the black dragon from afar tremble in terror.
Shun Long could hear Little Black"s indistinct voice in his head, but he couldn"t hear what the black dragon was saying clearly, since his head felt muddled from the pain.
His spiritual power inside his spiritual sea was finally completely depleted, allowing the crimson bolt of Heavenly Tribulation to directly attack his soul.
Forget about the soul of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, even a peak Dao Emperor"s soul would instantly crumble the moment they were attacked by a bolt of Heavenly Tribulation directly!
The crimson bolt of lightning was like a hungry magic beast that had finally smelled blood, as it arrived in the center of Shun Long"s "empty" spiritual sea almost instantly, heading straight towards his soul.
Without the spiritual power inside Shun Long"s spiritual sea to block its way, there was nothing else to stop the red bolt of Heavenly Tribulation as it collided directly with Shun Long"s soul.
Shun Long could instantly feel his soul being shaken by a nearly unstoppable power, as a soul-tearing pain that was even worse than before filled his mind.
However, it was at the same time that the crimson bolt of Heavenly Tribulation had touched his soul, that the "Stone of Time" inside Shun Long"s spiritual s.p.a.ce suddenly reacted.
The "Stone of Time" trembled momentarily, before a blinding blue and golden light exploded outwards and covered Shun Long"s spiritual s.p.a.ce in the blink of an eye.
Shun Long could feel the pain in his soul disappear almost instantly, as the terrifying power of the crimson lightning bolt seemed to have suddenly vanished, as if it had never existed in the first place.
Instead, of pain, Shun Long could feel a wave of nourishing energy appear within his spiritual s.p.a.ce, as it started to quickly strengthen his soul even further.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
Meanwhile, the moment that the crimson lightning bolt disappeared from Shun Long"s spiritual s.p.a.ce, the enormous white cloud of Heavenly Tribulation above the King"s Palace started to rumble once again, almost as if it had just been provoked.
This time the rumbling sound was much worse than before, as countless sparks of purple lightning started to appear on the surface of the white thundercloud, rapidly converging together as they quickly formed 9 gigantic bolts of purple lightning!
""P-P-Purple lightning?"" A young man who had just broken through to the Dao King realm a while ago and was now standing behind the Northern Sovereign and the other experts, couldn"t help mutter in a disbelieving voice as he stared at the scene above the King"s Palace.
Neither the Northern Sovereign nor any of the experts around her dared to speak at that moment, as they all stared at the 9 bolts of purple lightning with looks of incredulousness and even fear in their eyes.
It was almost as if the Heavens could no longer permit Shun Long to live and had decided to exterminate him today.
At that moment however, the "Stone of Time" inside Shun Long"s spiritual s.p.a.ce seemed to have reacted to this as well, as a horrifying aura that was even more powerful than the 9 bolts of purple lightning exploded outwards from the depths of Shun Long"s soul, as it shot to the skies to meet the 9 bolts of purple lightning!
Under the Northern Sovereign"s and the other experts" disbelieving eyes, the 9 bolts of purple lightning seemed to tremble, before the ma.s.sive thundercloud of Heavenly Tribulation quieted down, as it started to slowly disappear from the sky above the King"s Palace.
