The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3199 - 3194: The Might of Six-Nine Tribulation Thunder_1
Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
A collective sigh of relief swept through the crowd as they processed those words.
In truth, the overwhelming power Yang Chen exhibited during his clash with the Heaven’s Tribulation had weighed heavily on them. The sheer force was so immense that many felt any attempt to oppose him would be futile.
However, his statement allowed them to regain their composure.
What cause did they have for alarm? Even if Yang Chen managed to survive this ordeal by some stroke of luck, he would undoubtedly be left in a state of near-death exhaustion. Surrounded by a series of lethal formations designed to suppress and execute him, they were confident he would find no path to escape.
Yang Chen was well aware of the schemes brewing in the minds of these powerful figures. Ignoring them, he kept his focus locked on the firmament, maintaining a calm demeanor as he awaited the arrival of the forty-nine thunder tribulations.
As the forty-nine thunder tribulations began to descend, Yang Chen sensed that the intensity was still within a manageable range for his current state.
While the initial thirty-nine tribulations had been formidable, he was confident in his ability to neutralize them without much struggle.
However, the forty-nine thunder tribulations demanded his full attention. He knew that treating them with the same indifference as the previous rounds would lead to a disastrous outcome.
Being naturally cautious, Yang Chen acted immediately as the forty-nine tribulations struck, manifesting the Deathly Silent Black Wind.
The pressure from these forty-nine strikes was palpable, yet by utilizing the Deathly Silent Black Wind, he managed to achieve a flawless defense.
This stage did not yet require him to exhaust his ultimate trump cards.
But the atmosphere shifted drastically when the fifty-nine tribulations emerged.
Yang Chen observed a violent transformation within the Sky Thunder Pool. The destructive power of the tribulations surged, intertwining in the air and filling him with a sense of impending danger.
Reacting instinctively, Yang Chen increased the density of the Deathly Silent Black Wind, preparing himself for a more brutal confrontation.
The fifty-nine tribulations fell with blinding speed.
Yang Chen commanded hundreds of currents of Deathly Silent Black Wind to rise simultaneously, meeting the celestial lightning in a fierce collision.
Even though the Heaven-separated Realm experts present were intent on his demise, they could not help but acknowledge his terrifying prowess. Each clash with the tribulation sent shockwaves through their souls, making them realize the staggering gap between their own strength and Yang Chen’s.
During the early phase of the fifty-nine tribulations, the Deathly Silent Black Wind alone sufficed. However, as the intensity peaked in the later stages, he was forced to summon the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword to maintain his defense.
As the fifty-nine tribulations finally faded, they were replaced by the even more harrowing sixty-nine tribulations.
Even before the sixty-nine tribulations fully manifested, the atmospheric disturbance stretched across hundreds of billions of miles. The sky itself changed color across a vast expanse, reacting to the gravity of Yang Chen’s trial.
Powerful cultivators across the entire Star Domain Interface could feel the massive disturbance, though they remained ignorant of its true cause.
“This sixty-nine tribulation is truly formidable...” Yang Chen muttered, his heart racing as he stayed on high alert.
Suddenly, the first bolt of the sixty-nine thunder tribulations shattered the heavens and roared downward.
As it descended, the surrounding fabric of space buckled under the sheer weight of the tribulation. Spatial fractures tore open everywhere, and the appearance of black holes made it seem as though the end of the world had arrived.
This was merely the opening strike, yet its pressure alone was enough to warp reality!
Yang Chen met the challenge by launching his own counterattack.
Combining hundreds of strands of Deathly Silent Black Wind with the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword, he clashed head-on with the first bolt of the sixty-nine tribulations.
With a series of deafening cracks, Yang Chen’s combined forces gained the upper hand, successfully shattering the first strike.
Nevertheless, Yang Chen realized that this victory was narrow. If the second strike arrived and he continued to rely solely on these techniques, he feared a gruesome death would be inevitable.
The sixty-nine tribulations moved with relentless speed, denying him even a moment to recover. The second bolt was already crashing down like a streak of lightning.
As it fell, Yang Chen immediately thrust the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword forward while using the Deathly Silent Black Wind as a protective shroud.
Then, he shouted.
“Five Elements Sky-turning Finger!” With a single finger, he struck out. The attack merged with the distorted second layer of the thunder tribulation and the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword, dissolving the threat instantly.
The third layer followed immediately!
Yang Chen utilized two fingers of the Five Elements Sky-turning Finger for the third layer, three fingers for the fourth, and four fingers for the fifth.
By the time the sixth layer arrived, the weight of the pressure on Yang Chen had become immense. Realizing he had no choice, he unleashed his Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm, fearing he might otherwise be consumed by this sixth-level lightning.
Fortunately, given his current Cultivation in the Heaven-separated Realm, his mastery of the Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm had reached new heights. He struck with a massive palm, colliding violently with the sixth-level thunder.
A colossal vibration shook the world, completely ravaging the surrounding space.
The power of Yang Chen’s Five Elements Sky-turning Palm remained extraordinary, overpowering the sixth-level thunder tribulation and tearing it to shreds.
Yet, without a second to breathe, the seventh layer arrived with a rolling, thunderous roar.
“It’s too fast!”
Yang Chen thought back to his previous encounters with such trials.
The closer one got to the final bolt, the more the tribulation behaved like a wild, unpredictable storm.
Facing the seventh layer, he gritted his teeth and repeatedly deployed the Five Elements Sky-turning Palm.
This time, however, he did not stop at one; he unleashed three palms in rapid succession.
Yang Chen sensed that two palms would no longer be enough to stop the onslaught.
Three Five Elements Sky-turning Palms soared into the sky, crashing into the seventh layer of the thunder tribulation. Amidst the chaotic energy, the seventh layer was finally broken.
Then, with no pause at all, the ferocious eighth level descended.
Sweat poured down Yang Chen’s face. Despite his vast array of skills, dealing with these back-to-back thunder tribulations was becoming incredibly draining.
He knew that a standard Five Elements Sky-turning Palm would likely fail against the eighth level.
Taking a deep, cold breath, Yang Chen realized he had to tap into more potent techniques.
He closed his eyes briefly, then opened them as he began an incantation.
“Ten Thousand Law Dao Embryo, Open!”
Strengthened Five Elements Dao Intent!
The Five Elements Sky-turning Palm was unleashed once more. This time, however, it was infused with the empowered Life and Death Dao Intent, descending like a massive, celestial mountain!
Compared to the palm, the eighth-level thunder tribulation looked like a mere thread. The two forces locked together, but the strengthened Life and Death Dao Intent quickly overwhelmed the lightning.
The eighth-level thunder tribulation was successfully dissolved.
This display left the Heaven-separated Realm experts in a state of shock, their eyes wide with burgeoning fear.
Yang Chen had already survived eight stages of the sixty-nine thunder tribulations; only the final one remained.
His talent was too monstrous; none of them felt capable of restraining him. He was now just one step away from fully overcoming the sixty-nine tribulations!
This final bolt would determine whether they would have to commit to a life-or-death struggle with him.
Feeling the rapid depletion of his Ten Thousand Law Dao Embryo, Yang Chen’s brow furrowed.
Given the current strength of his Ten Thousand Law Dao Embryo, going all out against the ninth thunder wouldn't be the issue.
The real problem, however, was clearly not the ninth thunder itself!
