Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1872: 483 (3)

Within Lu Changsheng, his essence, Qi, and spirit surged fiercely, while his heart pounded like a demonic drum—dong dong dong—conveying an aura of unyielding power.

Yet right then, ominous clouds swiftly assembled overhead in the Great Dream Marsh.

The once clear blue expanse above transformed in an instant into utter darkness, profound and foreboding as a bottomless void, where thunderous flashes twisted and churned.

His eyes snapped open, Lu Changsheng unleashed two rays of golden brilliance, gazing upward at the vault of heaven.

Heavenly Tribulation!

Though separated by vast oceans, a tribulating force had fixed upon Lu Changsheng, weighing down his form and soul, rendering escape impossible.

"Is this the Heavenly Tribulation?"

He had observed the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale endure its own trial by lightning.

But now, facing it himself, the sensation proved utterly distinct.

"Is this my husband’s Heavenly Tribulation..."

Hong Lian fixed her gaze on the gathering storm of thunder above, whispering inwardly.

As a Nascent Soul True Lord, she had endured her share of Heavenly Tribulation.

That very ordeal made her all too aware of its terrifying might.

Despite her firm belief in Lu Changsheng's ability to triumph over the trial, and her conviction that he would prevail, the sight of those tribulation clouds swelling with purple bolts weaving together still stirred a trace of worry in her.

...

"Boom!"

A massive bolt, thick as a barrel, thundered downward straight at Lu Changsheng.

Drawing from the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale's ordeal, he refrained from channeling the Great Dream Marsh's Sea Eye to disperse the tribulation's fury, opting instead to grip the Five Directions Tribulation Stone and soar upward, confronting the Heavenly Tribulation directly.

"Boom boom boom!"

The initial strike of Heavenly Tribulation crashed onto him, yet Lu Changsheng emerged unscathed.

In that instant, his flesh seemed to receive an unfathomable cleansing, elevating swiftly in potency.

Beyond that, the Yin Yang Magic Power circulating inside him appeared to undergo deeper purification and honing!

"Just as I thought, Heavenly Tribulation serves as both a disaster and a trial, yet it also offers recompense, a boon from the heavens!"

Lu Changsheng's eyes gleamed with resolve as he stowed the Five Directions Tribulation Stone, his dark locks whipping in the wind while he stood tall and defiant before the roiling tribulation clouds.

The next wave of Heavenly Tribulation crashed over him.

He made no move to evade or shield himself, letting the lightning scour him fully.

"This..."

"Foregoing Tribulation Transcending Treasures and Magical Treasures alike, harnessing Heavenly Tribulation to temper body and magic power..."

Hong Lian understood well that directly confronting the Heavenly Tribulation during its crossing could bring manifold advantages.

However, such an approach demanded far greater endurance and raised the stakes of survival.

It amounted to a perilously bold strategy!

Reflecting on Lu Changsheng's string of remarkable achievements, though, Hong Lian held her tongue, simply observing in silence.

After a handful of breaths, the second bolt of Heavenly Tribulation began to fade.

Lu Changsheng remained erect amid the fading thunder, his frame bearing scorch marks.

Still, the Healing Divine Light from his Nine Treasures Ruyi Bone radiated from his torso, mending the wounds visibly, as he persisted in his proud stance toward the heavens, his vital energy surging skyward without faltering—in fact, his presence grew even more formidable.

"Boom!"

The third Heavenly Tribulation arrived in a blaze of glory, vast and awe-inspiring like a surging wave of lightning, swallowing the space around Lu Changsheng and instilling dread in any onlooker.

Such ferocity would force a Core Formation Cultivator to unleash everything at their disposal, but Lu Changsheng welcomed the onslaught bare.

Nevertheless, amid the relentless barrage, Lu Changsheng winced and inhaled sharply, activating the "Brahman Demon True Saint Technique" to ward off and divert some of the thunder's wrath.

After all, bearing it purely with bodily might risked harm that could impair the rest of the crossing.

Besides, the thunder's impact stung fiercely!

Save for those early days when he acquired the "Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture" and wielded Seven Luminaries Sword Qi to purge magic power of Elixir Toxicity, when had Lu Ancestor ever braved such torment?

"When heaven assigns a duty to this man..."

Contemplating the gains from the Heavenly Tribulation, Lu Changsheng clenched his jaw and pressed on, relying on his physical prowess to withstand it.

The toll showed in his blackened, fissured skin.

"Buzz!"

The Nine Treasures Ruyi Bone erupted in radiant glow, as Healing Divine Light coursed through every limb and organ, mingling with the undying material and vital essence within, restoring his wounds completely in mere breaths while shedding the layer of burned tissue.

Having swallowed a pill from Lou Mountain True Monarch, Lu Changsheng braced for the fourth Heavenly Tribulation.

Now, his Chaos Body's core fused actively, with the Flawless Heavenly Fragrance Body's traits fully engaged, striving to diminish the tribulation's intensity.

In truth, he couldn't hope to defy the fourth strike with mere flesh alone, so a modest reduction changed little.

Yet the dilution proved minor, the force still dwarfing the previous by multiples.

Recognizing he couldn't depend on body alone, Lu Changsheng clutched the [Five Directions Tribulation Stone], invoked his Magical Treasure [Yin Yang Chart] to offset some thunderous might, then absorbed the rest through his physique in the trial's embrace.

He noted his Yin Yang Chart had seemingly advanced several tiers amid the Heavenly Tribulation's tempering.

"This Heavenly Tribulation truly presents a golden chance!"

Grimacing through the agony wracking him, Lu Changsheng endured as the Nine Treasures Ruyi Bone knit his injuries, then he took two additional pills, unleashed his Chaos Body to further blunt the trial, readying for the fifth.

Originally, he planned to employ Magical Treasures for aid in the crossing.

But sensing the profound rewards of Heavenly Tribulation, he resolved to bear as much as feasible with raw strength.

"Boom boom boom!"

The fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth...

As Heavenly Tribulation's might escalated, Lu Changsheng had no choice but to equip Third Rank Armor.

Even then, his body suffered punctures, blood spraying as the armor crumbled.

Were it not for the [Nine Treasures Ruyi Bone], his ample stock of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, and potent Heavenly Spirit Medicines, he would never venture such a reckless stand against the strikes.

"Boom boom boom!"

Upon the ninth tribulation's approach—like a doomsday sun sprawling across the firmament, crashing down from above to raze all in its path—the Great Luo Sword Embryo materialized in Lu Changsheng's grasp.

He had witnessed the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale's trial, reduced to bare bones by the Heavenly Tribulation before regenerating via undying material.

But dare Lu Changsheng mimic that?

One false step here spelled immediate doom.

This crossing had already yielded ample boons; no sense chasing fleeting extra refinements from the baptism.

The Yin Yang Diagram Plate whirled overhead, Third Rank Magical Robe cloaking him, sweeping sword radiance clashing skyward, his left hand clasping the [Five Colors Tribulation Stone], while the Nine Treasures Ruyi Bone in his chest thrummed with vigor, unleashing boundless life force.

"Boom boom boom!!!"

The cataclysmic Heavenly Tribulation that rent heavens and shattered earth consumed Lu Changsheng, warping the surrounding void.

"Crack! Crack! Crack——"

From the seventh Heavenly Tribulation, the Five Directions Tribulation Stone had begun to falter, fissures appearing.

By now, with power rivaling a Nascent Soul Middle Stage assault, the Tribulation Transcending Treasure shattered outright.

Furthermore, the fresh Third Rank Magical Robe Lu Changsheng wore disintegrated beneath the Heavenly Tribulation.

Despite maxing out his Chaos Body and Brahman Demon True Saint Technique, his form ended up fully scorched, crackling with ruptures, flesh torn, blood flowing, bones snapping, as he plummeted into the Great Dream Marsh.

"Successful!"

Though Lu Changsheng appeared utterly battered, his condition had never felt better.

Inside, undying material ceaselessly honed his tissues, etching deep into marrow, while mana condensed and purified manifold beyond its prior state, and the Nine Treasures Ruyi Bone in his chest had evidently transformed profoundly amid the Heavenly Tribulation's immersion.

Yet the greatest revelation lay in his physique advancing to Fourth Rank, essence, Qi, and spirit weaving into a heavenly forge, awakening the body's hidden trove, akin to a Demon King's emergence, birthing an innate divine ability for his frame!
