Chapter 208: Chapter 31: Attack of Lin Xiwen!_1
Boom!
Thick lightning struck down without hesitation, landing directly on the body of Wu Monkey King.
The flashes of lightning illuminated the whole world, reminiscent of dusk.
Wu Monkey King’s body seemed to have been stained a mysterious dark silver color by the lightning.
Crackle!
There were sounds of crackling all over Wu Monkey King’s body.
Amidst the lightning strikes, his flesh rapidly disintegrated into burnt pieces.
But amid the lightning, Wu Monkey King stood tall and fearless, just as before. He sat on the ground, allowing the lightning to baptize him.
“That was the fourth one…”
Not far off.
Wang Ba was silently counting the number of lightning strikes.
Wu 1 and the others could pass through the first three thunder tribulations, so of course, Wu Monkey King didn’t have any problems.
Even the wounds on his body were stimulated during the tribulation and rapidly recovered.
However, the power of the fourth tribulation was drastically greater, and even Zhao Feng, who was observing from the side, couldn’t help but wear a serious expression.
“This thunder tribulation is almost as powerful as the first one of the Golden Core Tribulation.”
Wang Ba worried significantly more.
Cultivators who cross tribulations can still rely on the help of spells and Magic Tools.
However, when Wu Monkey King crosses tribulations, he only has his physical body to depend on.
The difficulty can be imagined.
The key point was that Wu Monkey King is merely a Class II, middle grade beast. Even though its flesh was sturdy, it was slightly pushing it for it to withstand a Golden Core Tribulation-level thunder tribulation entirely with its physical body.
But at this point, it was impossible to stop the tribulation. It was either success or death.
Wang Ba could only hope that the tribulation would stop at this point.
But since Wang Ba had strengthened the Wu Monkey King to a Class II, middle grade beast, the trials of the tribulation naturally became harsher accordingly. Very soon after the fourth tribulation ended, the dark clouds didn’t disperse but instead amassed a more shocking strength.
This time, the Wu Monkey King didn’t continue to sit.
He stood up, his palms pushing upward as though propping up the sky.
All the tranquility in his eyes had disappeared, replaced with stubborn defiance and ferocity engrained deep in the bloodline of his Mountain Moving Ape lineage!
“Hiss!”
The fifth thunder tribulation struck down directly!
Like a silver whip, it detonated with a rumble!
However, Wu Monkey King stood his ground, not retreating but instead advancing in the face of this remarkable tribulation!
At the moment the tribulation struck Wu Monkey King, blood and flesh flew about, releasing an aroma of burnt flesh!
Underneath all the gory mess, one could vaguely see the glint of lightning coursing through his skeletal frame.
Despite experiencing this heavy attack and the weakening of his vital strength to barely a flicker of a candle flame, Wu Monkey King’s eyes still sparkled with an intense divine light!
“Catch this!”
At this moment, Zhao Feng suddenly tossed something towards Wu Monkey King.
Wu Monkey King extended his hand, which was only a skeletal frame at this point, to awkwardly catch it. After glancing at it, he immediately swallowed it without hesitation.
Wang Ba took a brief glance and only managed to see that it was an ebony pill. He had no idea what it was.
“What is that…?”
“It’s the inner core of a Thunder Python.”
Zhao Feng, while still watching Wu Monkey King, answered without even turning his head back.
“Thunder Python!? Class III Spirit Beast!”
The comers of Wang Ba’s eyes promptly widened at the disclosure.
Class III refers to the Golden Core stage.
And the inner core of a Class III Spirit Beast, that is equal to the Golden Core of a true human Golden Core master.
Such a valuable item, Zhao Feng gave it away without hesitation.
With the item already consumed by Wu Monkey King, Wang Ba had no opportunity to decline even if he wanted to.
“Senior brother, this is too valuable…”
“No need for formalities, most things I’ve received before were used to exchange for materials for the Soul Nurturing Bead’s promotion. Otherwise, I could have given you some.”
Zhao Feng said.
Wang Ba understood upon hearing this since advancing the originally Class III Soul Nurturing Bead further would undoubtedly require massive resources for a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.
However, he didn’t have the capacity to be courteous now. The clouds in the sky continued to loom without signs of dispersing, and were gathering strength once again.
“The sixth one!”
Zhao Feng’s face had turned into a very somber expression.
The exacting pressure stored within the thunderclouds sent a chill down his spine.
And Wang Ba became increasingly worried.
Fortunately, the Class III Inner Core seemed to be working, and Wu Monkey King was recovering from his injuries extremely quickly.
Within an eye’s blink, fresh flesh grew upon the bones revealed.
However, Wu Monkey King remained silent. The light in his eyes, though, grew brighter and brighter!
Akin to dazzling stars!
In the sky, within the long-accreting thunderclouds, countless thunder sounds roared.
“Hiss!”
Suddenly, Wu Monkey King struck the ground with both palms, creating a fierce tremor. Beneath his feet, the rocks shattered and rose, forming a towering pinnacle that propelled him high into the sky as if he was riding atop a soaring mountain!
He roared towards the sky!
With his arms stretched wide, he beat his chest!
Then he flexed his legs and shot towards the thundercloud!
At the same time, within the thundercloud, a thunderbolt finally tore through!
Lightning rays instantly flooded the small ape as it leapt high into the sky.
The flickering lightning resembled nothing less than a great pool of lightning.
Wang Ba was intently watching the sky.
Meanwhile, Zhao Feng, also looking at the sky, seemed to be subtly touched by something.
Very soon.
The lightning pool gradually started dissipating.
A silhouette, bathed in lightning, fell from the sky.
Zhao Feng activated a thought, turning into a streak of sword-light. In a flash, he managed to catch Wu Monkey King, although he touched the electrical discharge enveloping Wu Monkey King’s body, causing him to briefly feel numb.
He immediately looked at Wu Monkey King in astonishment.
Wang Ba hurried over when he saw this, hurriedly asking, “Senior brother, what happened?”
“He’s fine, still alive, but just faint for now.”
Zhao Feng ran mana through his body, quickly dissipating the numbness.
He then placed Wu Monkey King, virtually burned black all over, almost unrecognizable, down. He couldn’t help but exclaim again:
