Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 867 - 368: Shocking Reversal

A scorched silhouette barreled toward Sword Ancestor and his companions, gaze overflowing with lethal killing intent.

That obscure form was none other than Fan City, who had clung to life through pure fortune.

Fan City now sensed his spirit utterly shattered, convinced no escape remained for him.

The final notion surging in his thoughts was to wipe out Sword Ancestor and the rest, forcing Ning Qi to endure that isolating agony!

Yet, he remained oblivious that Ning Qi had already identified him.

Furthermore, Ning Qi detected lingering Thunderous Power from his tribulation inside Fan City’s frame and felt immediate joy.

This leftover thunder proved a priceless gem!

Though Ning Qi had conquered the Heavenly Tribulation himself, he hadn’t forgotten Sword Ancestor and his group.

Sword Ancestor and the others, as Integration stage experts native to the Mountain and Sea Realm, would transform into realm guardians if they survived the tribulation under the Mountain and Sea Realm’s rule-formed thundercloud?

Should tensions arise between him and the Mountain and Sea Realm afterward, their bond with Sword Ancestor and the others would grow awkwardly strained. Would they find themselves torn between loyalties to the realm and Ning Qi, unsure whom to obey?

Thus, Ning Qi sought the perfect timing for their tribulation.

Merely pinpointing an ideal tribulation instant wasn’t sufficient; Ning Qi also needed to free Sword Ancestor and the others from the Mountain and Sea Realm’s dominance completely.

Spotting the remnant thunder on Fan City’s body sparked an inspiration in Ning Qi.

He could harness this remnant thunder to alter Sword Ancestor and the others’ Celestial Tribulation entirely, sparing the exhaustive effort of his own ordeal!

Indeed, a surge of firm assurance filled Ning Qi.

Post-alteration, he might even seize command over the tribulation thunder.

Up high in the forward sky.

Sword Ancestor Qi Keqing and his allies ceased holding back their realms, as diverse rule powers within them surged toward their minds, triggering instant shifts across the world.

Abruptly overhead, vast Mountain and Sea Realm rules converged, weaving thick layers of ominous clouds across the heavens.

Even freshly formed, these ominous clouds boomed with thunder the moment they materialized.

Countless lightning streaks tore through the clouds, flashing intermittently and casting glows on the faces of those below.

Witnessing Sword Ancestor and his group facing tribulation, crowds underneath scattered in haste to distant spots.

"Have these people gone mad, choosing a group tribulation?"

Typical cultivators tackling Harmonization Tribulation usually retreat to isolated spots to avoid harming bystanders.

Yet here, dozens soared skyward, set on facing tribulation right in this location.

Did they ignore how such collective summoning amplified the thunder tribulation’s ferocity far beyond solo attempts?

Sword Ancestor and his companions harbored doubts too, but Ning Qi’s voice transmission prompted their unwavering faith in him.

Ning Qi’s directive to tribulate now meant he held unshakable certainty!

Even amid their tribulation, they fixed hostile stares on the incoming scorched figure.

The foe’s immense cultivation and aura dwarfed everyone there, his killing intent nearly solidifying in the air.

No need to mention it—this wretch was the pursuer of Ning Qi who’d miraculously endured.

Post-Ning Qi’s tribulation, unable to slay him, the foe now targeted them instead.

Still, puzzled why Ning Qi spared him to let them tribulate, Sword Ancestor and the others lingered in confusion.

"Kill!"

A chilling cry of slaughter burst from the frenzied Fan City’s lips.

He’d planned a straight assault on Sword Ancestor and the rest but abruptly glanced at the thundercloud.

In that instant, Fan City sensed something extraordinary.

Somehow, the thundercloud from their group tribulation struck him as insignificant.

Not merely from his late Harmonization cultivation, but because Ning Qi’s Thirty-six Layers of Thunder Tribulation had left residual thunder in his body.

Against the thunder lingering inside him, this tribulation thunder paled utterly!

Even more startling, Fan City felt a profound resonance with the tribulation thunder from its first emergence.

Dark clouds blanketed the sky thickly, lightning serpents coiling wildly, yet a peculiar human-sized void hovered above him, as though all thunder shunned his presence.

Like myriad birds flocking to the phoenix, commoners beholding the sovereign.

This bizarre shift swiftly altered Fan City’s intent. Thrilled beyond measure, he rocketed upward.

The heavenly roar swelled fiercer, instantly tinting the lightning with diverse hues.

Fan City marveled as his involvement propelled the tribulation’s might into a soaring ascent.

"Haha, die, all of you die!"

Fan City cackled maniacally; from his burned husk exposing crimson flesh, boundless Thunderous Power erupted.

These thunder streams burst from him like mini dragons, merging into the overhead dark clouds.

At once, all onlookers clearly observed the sky’s dark clouds gaining a blood-red sheen, tainted by Fan City’s slaughterous aura.

Fan City emerged as thunder’s sovereign, positioning himself at the tribulation’s core!

Lightning danced across his scorched form, immersing him in a thunderous ocean.

This twist stunned not just Sword Ancestor and the tribulating group, but drove spectators to flee the zone at top speed.

"Oh no, the previous thunder tribulation is back!"

Be it in the Realm of War’s Outer Domain or Inner Ring Middle Domain, the trio of supreme Immortal Sect leaders, freshly eased by the thunder tribulation’s end, all paled dramatically.

How could the thunder tribulation return?

Even the three Ancestors guarding the Realm of War from the two Spirit Realms stirred.

Yet as mere watchers, distant from the chaos, they grasped none of the precise happenings.
