Weisheng Xingyu used the Life Plate to resurrect the Wood Dragon, but it cost him 150 years of his lifespan. The Wood Dragon gratefully pledged his loyalty. Just as everyone's spirits lifted, the final wave of the Thunder Tribulation reappeared. Weisheng Xingyu consulted the Life Plate again and divined a favorable omen for the Wood Dragon.

They thought that the Wood Dragon elder was about to die just after coming back to life.

"Wood Dragon elder, Elder Weishang has divined another hexagram for you. The hexagram reveals great fortune and blessings, so you can rest assured that you will be safe and unharmed!" Huaikong smiled and then shouted towards the sky where the Wood Dragon was glaring angrily at the eye in the firmament.

As soon as the words fell, countless eyes bearing immense divine power emerged in the sky, and then gradually closed one after another.

Click—

The space around the Wood Dragon shattered once again.

The Wood Dragon’s Dragon Body trembled!

The Dragon Scales formed by the Cyan Dragon Celestial Body shattered entirely at this moment, just like in the scene when he died before.

"Is it really great fortune?"

The Wood Dragon’s Demon Power fully erupted to resist the fragmentation and pressure of space, but the pressure felt exactly the same as when he died before.

This made him a little skeptical of Huaikong’s words.

As for Weishang Xingyu.

He was trusted!

After all, Weishang Xingyu had just saved his life.

Wen Ping watched this scene, seeing the countdown system appearing before his eyes again, his brows knitted tightly, then looked at Weishang Xingyu, "Are you sure it’s great fortune?"

Weishang Xingyu quickly put away the Ancient Coins and Life Plate, confidently got up, and then looked in the direction of the Wood Dragon, "Sect Leader, rest assured, the hexagram shows great fortune. That Wood Dragon Elder will surely pass this tribulation safely, perhaps without a scratch..."

The last word "hurt" wasn’t finished yet.

Under the pressure of space, the Wood Dragon’s tail burst and was crushed into pieces by the space fragments, and the damage continued.

The Wood Dragon’s Dragon Body was collapsing section by section.

"Wasn’t it great fortune?"

Weishang Xingyu’s confident expression vanished suddenly.

Wen Ping interjected, "This is exactly like the process when the Wood Dragon died just now. If I remember correctly, in 13 breaths, the Wood Dragon’s Dragon Body will explode into a sky full of blood and flesh again."

"12 breaths."

"11 breaths."

As Wen Ping counted down, Weishang Xingyu grew anxious.

With one hand he took out the Life Plate, then leapt up and transformed into a dazzling rainbow, tapping fiercely on the Life Plate, causing it to spin while rapidly chanting, with Sanskrit-like sounds pouring forth from his mouth.

Above the firmament, a terrifying force roared down onto the Life Plate, then transformed into an aurora shooting towards the half-collapsed Dragon Body of the Wood Dragon.

As the aurora entered his body, the Wood Dragon suddenly let out a resounding dragon roar, and his rapidly collapsing Dragon Body began to slowly recover at this moment.

The pressure from space abruptly halted!

"It’s blocked!"

Huaikong was both surprised and delighted.

Wen Ping, seeing this scene, couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction, saying, "This is indeed Life Technique, altering destiny is no empty boast, even to the point of blocking an annihilation-level celestial punishment."

Immediately, everyone from the Immortal Sect began to cheer for Weishang Xingyu and the Wood Dragon.

"Go Elder Weishang!"

"Go Elder Wood Dragon!"

Cheering voices echoed without end.

But Weishang Xingyu wasn’t happy hearing this.

Because his lifespan was depleting!

The Life Technique he wielded was called Source God Aurora, one of the top ten forbidden techniques in Life Techniques.

It could block all fatal disasters!

But the cost was the consumption of lifespan.

Using it once consumed a hundred years of lifespan!

In a blink, he had already used up two hundred fifty years of lifespan!

As time progressed, although the Source God Aurora blocked the collapse and pressure of space, it began consuming his lifespan on top of the already depleted hundred-year lifespan.

He could feel his lifespan draining away.

One year.

Two years.

Three years.

...

Every breath was consuming three years of lifespan!

"I..."

"What kind of great fortune is this!"

How could great fortune be so perilous?

This must be a great misfortune instead!

Though Weishang Xingyu thought this inwardly, he dared not voice it aloud.

Because he had just confidently told all the elders, including the Sect Leader, that his hexagram reading was great fortune, and as long as the Wood Dragon was in tribulation, it would ensure his safety.

This would overturn his own words.

Not only would it be a slap to his own face.

But it would also belittle Life Techniques!

"Live for me!"

Weishang Xingyu roared, as the Source God Aurora continued to shoot into the Wood Dragon’s body, and the Wood Dragon’s Demon Power erupted again, beginning to gather the Demon Body.

But this was confronting celestial punishment, so with the combined effect of the Source God Aurora and Demon Power, the Wood Dragon’s Dragon Body couldn’t recover much. On the contrary, having sensed the Wood Dragon’s resistance, the heavens slowly began to enhance the power of the annihilation-level celestial punishment.

Click—

Subtle sounds of space breaking came one after another, as the Dragon Body the Wood Dragon had painstakingly restored was crushed to collapse again.

Thus, this process persisted for a full fifty breaths!

Weishang Xingyu’s face darkened.

Another hundred fifty years of his lifespan were gone!

It was then that Wen Ping’s voice came, "Just hold on for another 27 breaths, and the last wave of the Wood Dragon’s Demon Immortal Thunder Tribulation will be over."

"26 breaths."

As Wen Ping counted down, the Wood Dragon began to let out waves of unyielding roaring dragon cries.

Weishang Xingyu also gritted his teeth, with blood flowing and bearing it. He felt his lifespan continuing to be drawn out, his body growing ever weaker.

His hair, once jet black, was now half-white.

"10 breaths."

"9 breaths."

Wen Ping continued to count.

When only five seconds remained, Weishang Xingyu spat out a mouthful of blood onto the Life Plate, eyes turning dark, he plummeted down like a kite with a broken string.

Having expended four hundred and sixty-six years of lifespan already, his body could no longer endure.

"Elder Weishang!"

Huaikong was taken aback, transforming into a whirlwind and rushing towards Weishang Xingyu, then catching him as he fell towards the ground.

Without Weishang Xingyu’s Source God Aurora protection, the crushing space around the Wood Dragon shattered massively, squeezing the remaining Dragon Body into space fragments, causing rapid collapse, losing a hundred meters of Dragon Body in an instant.

"1 second!"

But the countdown of Wen Ping also reached its end, and the annihilation-level celestial punishment abruptly halted, as the space fragments which had been endlessly crushing the Wood Dragon began to recover slowly, making crackling sounds.
