Chapter 1060: Chapter 549: Exotic Thunder Tribulation (2)

Xue’Er exerted all her strength, guiding these frenzy thunder serpents along specific meridians, allowing her physical body to experience an unprecedented baptism from the tribulation thunder.

However, the terror of the True Spirit Thunder Tribulation was just beginning to reveal itself.

Amidst the thunder clouds, seemingly enraged by the actions of the Tribulation Fox, they churned violently, the thunder deafening, several purple thunderbolts interwoven crazily within the clouds, condensing into an even larger thunderstorm, like arrows of heavenly punishment, carrying the momentum to destroy all living creatures, bombarding towards Xue’Er.

Xue’Er let out a low shout, her Spiritual Power boiling throughout her body, the Ice Fox Domain expanded once more, gathering more cold air around her, forming a more robust Ice Shield.

With a "boom!" the enormous thunderstorm struck against the Ice Shield around Xue’Er, this collision was more intense than the previous one, the Ice Shield under the impact of the thunderstorm trembled violently, the frost covering its surface quickly melted and then rapidly froze again, as if engaging in a life-and-death struggle against the thunderstorm.

Xue’Er clenched her teeth tightly, enduring the torment of dual pain from inside and outside, with a wave of her jade-like hand, a Spirit Talisman appeared out of thin air, on which powerful Spiritual Qi fluctuations circulated, radiating brilliant Spirit Light, quickly resonating with the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, forming a dazzling light shield.

This talisman was prepared by Li Mu for her protection before Xue’Er’s Tribulation Crossing - a Tier Six Thunder Talisman.

With a loud "boom," the purple thunderbolts struck down but encountered an invisible barrier upon touching the light shield, being dissolved one by one by the radiant Spirit Light upon it, the thunder light scattered, turning into specks of starlight, dissipating into the Void.

Taking advantage of this brief opportunity, Xue’Er took a deep breath, the Spiritual Power within her surged, interweaving and colliding with the Celestial Thunder Power inside her, quickly restoring her Status.

Seeing this, Li Mu frowned tightly, a trace of unease creeping silently within his heart. The True Spirit Thunder Tribulation had just started, and Xue’Er was already forced to use the Thunder Talisman.

"Things are looking grim! This True Spirit Thunder Tribulation is extremely fierce, carrying an ominous aura, it’s unlike any ordinary one!"

It was uncertain when Master Qingyang had quietly appeared beside Li Mu, gazing at Xue’Er on the Tribulation Crossing Platform with a look of solemnity, giving a hint.

"How is this thunder tribulation different from the usual Six-Nine True Spirit Thunder Tribulation, Elder, have you identified the origin of this thunder tribulation?" Li Mu frowned, staring up at the gathering thunder clouds, asking with concern.

Master Qingyang pondered momentarily, his eyes profoundly fixated on those ceaselessly churning thunder clouds, and said: "This thunder tribulation is indeed incomparable to any ordinary Six-Nine True Spirit Thunder Tribulation, I’m suspecting it’s an Exotic Thunder Tribulation!"

"The Six-Nine True Spirit Thunder Tribulation is an ordeal sent down by the Heavenly Dao upon the Transformed Demon King when breaking through to the True Spirit Realm, divided into six minor tribulations and nine major tribulations, totaling fifteen stages, each stage is a thorough baptism of their body and soul, Demonic Body. However, the tribulation thunder that Xue’Er is currently experiencing seems to have assimilated other Dao Principles, making this thunder tribulation transcend the conventional domain, becoming an extremely rare Exotic Thunder Tribulation." There was a trace of gravity in Master Qingyang’s words.

"Exotic Thunder Tribulations, as the name implies, are thunder tribulations containing special Attributes and Powers different from ordinary lightning, they are often closely related to certain special Laws or the bloodlines of powerful beings in Heaven and Earth, their occurrence heralds the extraordinary nature of the Tribulation Responders." After pausing for a moment, Master Qingyang continued to explain: "Exotic Thunder Tribulations are numerous and hard to enumerate entirely, but generally, they can be divided into three major categories: Primordial Power Evolution Tribulation, Law Mutation Tribulation, Bloodline Awakening Tribulation. Xue’Er is from a mixed bloodline of the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox and Snow Fox, if I’m not mistaken, she’s facing a Bloodline Awakening Tribulation right now."

"The Bloodline Awakening Tribulation is one of the most perilous and mysterious Exotic Thunder Tribulations." Master Qingyang’s voice became exceptionally solemn, reminding Li Mu: "It not only tests the tribulation crosser’s physical body and divine soul, but it also thoroughly baptizes and reshapes the roots of their bloodline. During this process, the tribulation responder will feel the call and impact from all the powers in their ancestral bloodline. Each bolt of thunder might evoke ancient powers hidden within their bloodline and might drive them to the brink of frenzy and destruction."

As Master Qingyang’s words fell, the thunder clouds in the sky seemed to respond to his judgment, becoming more frantic and restless, within the thunderstorm, purple electric arcs began to flicker with eerie red light.

The next moment, a scarlet red thunderbolt struck down towards Xue’Er.

With a "crack," a crisp sound echoed.

The light shield formed by the Thunder Talisman in front of Xue’Er started trembling violently upon contact with the scarlet red thunderbolt, its radiant Spirit Light rapidly dimming, seemingly under an indescribable pressure, cracks like spider webs rapidly spreading out.

With a "poof," the Spirit Taming Talisman shattered on the spot, the scarlet red thunderbolt struck heavily against Xue’Er’s fragile body.

"Ah!"

Xue’Er let out a miserable cry, her body stiffening, the red thunderbolt penetrated, the Demon Essence inside her ignited like a boiling pot of oil, the terrifying Thunder Power intertwined with the frenzy Demon Essence, seemingly about to tear apart her body and Divine Soul together.

Xue’Er was directly forced to her original form, a large six-tailed Demonic Fox with snow-white fur curled up on the Tribulation Crossing Platform, surrounded tightly by scarlet red thunder light, appearing rather desolate.

The momentum of the next thunderbolt intensified even more, the entire sky seemed shrouded by an atmosphere of utmost oppression, the thunder roared as if heavens and earth were collapsing, the purple thunder clouds interspersed with more red light, indicating a more violent lightning strike approaching.

At this critical moment, seemingly sensing its master’s severe injury, the necklace around Xue’Er’s neck suddenly radiated dazzling light, the ’Ice Crystal Lotus’ emerged to protect its master, releasing endless Power of Ice, instantly fusing with the Ice Fox Domain around Xue’Er, forming an indestructible Ice Barrier.

This barrier not only withstood the terrifying thunderbolt about to fall but also enfolded Xue’Er tightly within, as if erecting a temporary Ice Palace, isolating all harms.

Seeing the appearance of this Master-Protecting Dao Artifact, Master Qingyang’s pupils contracted involuntarily as he glanced at Li Mu, acknowledging that this item was his creation.

Master Qingyang chuckled wryly and indicated, "Sect Master, you truly have put a lot of heart into Miss Xue’Er. It seems you’ve already foreseen the dangers of this thunder tribulation and prepared this life-protecting item for her in advance."

Upon hearing this, Li Mu looked complexly towards Xue’Er on the Tribulation Crossing Platform, his eyes filled with insurmountable worry, he voiced solemnly: "How could I not plan for her? However, this Exotic Thunder Tribulation is beyond my expectations, even ’Ice Crystal Lotus’ can only temporarily secure a sliver of opportunity for her."

"Sect Master," Master Qingyang frowned and indicated: "Over-relying on artifacts is not beneficial for her Tribulation Crossing, this tribulation thunder possesses the power to temper her bloodline, capable of stirring the bloodline power within her."

The reminder from Master Qingyang made Li Mu struggle indecisively, hesitating and anxious, he knew that relying excessively on artifacts during Tribulation Crossing was unwise, yet, he couldn’t bear to watch Xue’Er perish under the thunder tribulation.

Master Qingyang sighed, turned towards Xue’Er within the ice barrier, and voiced a reminder: "Miss Xue’Er, this tribulation you need to face head-on to cross successfully, excessive reliance on artifacts can lead to endless problems. Your bloodline contains boundless potential, only through the baptism of tribulation thunder can it awaken, thereby overcoming this ordeal!"

Within the ice barrier, upon hearing Master Qingyang’s call, Xue’Er’s heart trembled, the resilient will, temporarily suppressed by pain and despair, ignited instantly, she immediately realized that if she wanted to truly surpass herself, achieve greatness, she must not avoid confrontation, nor excessively rely on Li Mu.

Xue’Er’s eyes abruptly opened, within her pupils flashed an unprecedented decisive intent, forcefully maneuvering the chaotic Demon Essence within her to suppress the rampant tribulation thunder power inside.

"Ah——!"

Xue’Er roared deafeningly towards the sky, breaking out from the ice barrier, the six tails unfolded, her fur gleamed with silver white and eerie red light in the intertwining of thunder light and cold air, like six sharp Ice Blades intertwined with endless Thunder Power.

In an instant, Xue’Er was enveloped by countless thunderbolts, countless thunderbolts penetrated the snow-white fur, leaving shocking charred marks, her skin and flesh split open, blood and lightning intertwined, forming a tragic yet magnificent image.
