Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 102 - Summoning The Heavenly Tribulations

Just as he got that mysterious power, his mind was full of ways to use it. basically, he had a huge library of spells, like cultivation techniques, and strangely enough, both were similar in principle.

He had to circulate his energy through his body. the more it rotated, the stronger his attacks would be. Unlike cultivators, dragonairs used their blood vessels to circulate energy, and the heart was the place where it gathered, like a dantian for cultivators.

As he got the simple principles right, the scope of using his energy escalated to new heights. He had long experience in experimenting, and now he had the chance to do it on a genie pig.

The moment the barrier around him shattered, he felt the distasteful aura of that bronzed pillar, looking at him like a god was looking at mortals. That aura didn't faze him, neither did it make him feel fear, unlike everything logical, he felt great excitement, anticipated to use his new strength, test his theories in mind, upon that test subject.

The giant glanced at him with his endless eyes, before a huge, shriek like laugh came from him. Arthur didn't know how such a giant laugh, but that meant there was a head somewhere, and he had to kill the head so the whole pillar would disintegrate.

Like him, this giant pillar was a manifestation of some sort of strength, however Arthur didn't know what was that strength. He had some speculations, as this seemed to be a special kind of earth based strength, the metal strength.

"Finally, I got tired living inside your illusion, that damned spell you treacherously used when I killed you. Come, whoever you are, come and fight papa."

Arthur didn't know what was going on, as he was told this was a piece of memory, stored solely to test the heir candidate. He didn't know this huge giant was living still, and he waited for the day to fight him, so he could be set free.

"Fine, I will grant your wish, come and taste defeat at my hands," Arthur refused to show weakness, as he retorted back to the giant pillar, who laughed again, like he heard some sort of a joke.

"Really? You?! By your mighty self then? Come, come and rub my back, it's the best thing you can do."

Arthur wasn't offended by these words, as he knew that the real owner of this huge strength died at the hands of that giant. However, he didn't intend to use the same way as that old master did, or else he would face the same disastrous defeat.

"Let the sky wither with lightning!"

Suddenly, Arthur channeled all the strength inside his body. feeling the mighty strength roaming around his body, he smiled, as he was confident, so confident of his victory.

The pillar owner didn't understand Arthur's words, as they weren't part of the spells dragonairs used. He had all the right to be startled, as Arthur wasn't fighting the same way usual dragonairs would fight, he was fighting using his own old techniques.

The moment he felt the strength inside his body would go out of his control, he controlled it to exit from both of his claws, heading towards the sky. The moment these energies exited his body, it was manifested into two little dragons, golden silver in color, moving very fast towards the sky, like two lightning bolts themselves.

The moment they touched the sky, the sky shook, and the place suddenly dimmed. The pillar moved its huge body, like he was observing the sudden change in the sky. Before he could understand what was going on, a huge amount of lightning descended from the sky like huge serpents, aiming directly towards that bronze pillar.

"Boom!"

It wasn't only the huge body of the pillar, but the whole world shook with the massive lightning falling down from the sky. Once the lightning descended, Arthur didn't stand by and watch, as he muttered:

"You live a very peaceful life here, without any heavenly tribulations at all. Taste some of any cultivator has tasted to get part of the strength you got. Let the doors to the heavens crack, let the heavenly punishment descend, testing everyone, testing everything, ruling supreme above all!"

He was now like a crazy mage, screaming nonsense to anyone who would hear him, however he knew what he was doing. As he screamed those words, the sky shook again, more massive this time, as the amount of the lightning got thickened, and their color changed from silver white to dark silver, to orange, to yellow, to gold, to red, and finally to become pitch black.

Arthur didn't plan to end it here, as he wasn't satisfied by the screams and roars of that pillar, while his whole huge body was now withering under the effect of this mighty thunder.

"Heaven isn't merciful, heaven isn't just, heaven isn't kind, show me the bitterness in this world's laws, the supreme edict that rules everything, ruin it all, let the punishment descend, let it be no living under the heaven without being tested, I challenge you, I dare you, to prove me right, and prove my right in ascending!"

This was the mantra used by cultivators to summon heavenly tribulations back in his days. no cultivator could ascend a step without being mercilessly tested.

The stronger the cultivator, the mightier the test. if the cultivator skipped the tribulations one time, the next tribulation would be more severe than usual, it would be considered a punishment.

And Arthur, standing here summoning all this disaster, was asking for this punishment. As for him, a soul that was bathed literally under tribulations, he wasn't tested at all, not like that huge pillar, who was now swaying left and right, screaming like he never did before, out of pain.

In fact Arthur didn't know if summoning the tribulations here would work or not, but as he noticed more similarities between this world and his previous one, he developed this conclusion, that this world wasn't that different at all.

Despite no one having ever summoned tribulations before, this seemed quite bizarre to the dragon spirit which was now observing everything happening from inside Arthur's dragon body. He never saw someone fight in this way ever before, nor heard of an ability to summon these dreadful, never to be seen before, lightning.

The lightning kept hitting the bronze pillar non-stop. Arthur knew heavenly tribulation was guided towards the pillar, as it was the only metallic object here, and thus he took all the toll of the lightning, striking it heavily, without showing any mercy.

Arthur could help the pillar, if he stepped into the area around him, but he didn't do that, obviously. He just waited on the side, watching that pillar being struck one time after another, without any way to hide or evade these strikes.

The more lightning fell, the more damage that pillar had.. Arthur did watch quietly on the side for a while, and when the tribulation was about to end, he started to act.
