The peak of Great Black Mountain had been swallowed by a sea of lightning.
This was lightning tribulation from the heavens.
At this moment, the battle between the utmost powerful beings in the void had come to an end.
The geniuses who were heading to Great Black Mountain stopped as well.
Everyone looked at the top of Great Black Mountain in shock.
"Was it attracted by the ripening of the thunderstruck wood fruit?"
"The thunderstruck wood fruit is natural. Even if it's a divine foundation item, it shouldn't attract a lightning tribulation!"
"What happened?"
No one knew what was going on.
Previously, Zheng Kaishan had sent a message to the entire city, asking all the geniuses below the Foundation Establishment Realm to rush to Great Black Mountain. However, he only said that a divine item like the thunderstruck wood fruit had appeared on the peak.
Therefore, most of the people present did not know what was going on.
Qin Yiren and the demon slayer team, who were at the edge of the mountain, stopped in their tracks.
Other people might not know what was happening on the mountaintop, but Qin Yiren did.
Lin Feng was at the peak of the mountain. The young master of the demon race was there. Mr. Chen, the traitor from the Heavenly Dao Association, and Xiao Jianguang were there as well.
However, at this moment, the lightning seemed to be heading toward them.
Even though the terrifying lightning had yet to spread to their bodies, they could feel the terrifying energy that was about to destroy everything from a distance.
Under such circumstances, could Lin Feng, a mere early-stage Qi Gathering Realm cultivator, still survive?
In the next second, Qin Yiren's eyes turned even redder and her eyes were wide.
"Lin Feng..."
As soon as she finished saying his name, Qin Yiren headed straight for the top of the mountain. Even though the area was filled with demonic beasts, it had already turned into a sea of lightning.
Slash... Rumble!
However, Qin Yiren was struck by one of the lightning bolts as soon as she got close to it. She staggered for a moment before falling to the ground.
Fortunately, the demon slayers quickly helped Qin Yiren up.
This was only the tip of the iceberg, but even Qin Yiren, a genius in the Qi Gathering Realm, was knocked unconscious by the lightning.
One would imagine that Lin Feng, who was at the center of the lightning storm, had been reduced to nothing but ash.
At the foot of Great Black Mountain, the paragons were only stunned for a moment. In the next second, they continued their climb to the mountain peak.
They did not know that there was someone at the top of the mountain, but at this moment, the top of the mountain had turned into a sea of lightning. Whether it was the lightning attracted by the divine object or something else, it meant that something extraordinary had really appeared on the peak of the mountain.
In the void outside of Zhongzhou City, Great Zhou's strongest and the demon race's strongest stopped fighting for a moment. In the next second, the three strongest members of the thunderbird clan turned around and retreated without hesitation.
"Retreat!"
"If the young master isn't dead, it means he has succeeded!"
"Elder Zheng, Elder Su, hurry up and save your human geniuses. If you're late, I'm afraid that nothing will remain of them!"
As the three supreme experts were retreating, they still managed to mock them.
The young master of the thunderbird clan was also at the top of the mountain, but they could not care about that at this moment.
If Lei Ming had succeeded, he would have probably escaped.
If he had not, he would have probably turned to ash in the face of the lightning storm.
They were rather decisive as well. Since things had already come to this, there was no need for them to continue getting entangled with the supreme beings of the human race. They immediately retreated.
Zheng Kaishan and Su Xun looked at each other, but they did not chase after them. Instead, they strode straight to Great Black Mountain at the same time.
Su Xun even spoke to Qin Shang.
"Qin Shang, I'll leave these three birds to you. Kill them for me!"
Qin Shang naturally knew that his daughter had already escaped from the mountain peak. Therefore, he was not in such a hurry. He could only nod and chase after the three powerful demons.
At this moment, the sea of lightning on the mountain peak showed no signs of dissipating. The lightning was already extremely majestic.
Bolts of lightning struck down, enveloping the entire mountain peak. A large number of demonic beasts had already died due to the lightning.
At this moment, only a few level seven demonic beasts and the young master of the thunderbird clan, Lei Ming, were still alive.
On the other hand, none of the humans had died yet.
Mr. Chen, an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, was using his own cultivation base to withstand the bombardment of the lightning bolts.
However, he was like an arrow at the end of its flight. At this moment, he was battered from withstanding the lightning, and his cultivation base had been greatly exhausted. He was only holding on bitterly.
There was also Xiao Jianguang. Although he was only at the great circle of the Qi Gathering Realm and had wasted a lot of his cultivation in his battle with Lin Feng, he was actually relying on his spiritual longsword to withstand the lightning.
However, at this moment, neither the demons nor humans could move. Not only was the paralyzing effect of the terrifying lightning extremely strong, but if they moved, they would attract even more lightning.
The lightning was still concentrated at the center. A ball of incomparably dazzling lightning could be seen. It was impossible to see if Lin Feng had really been reduced to dust.
However, within this incomparably dazzling lightning sphere, Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes and allowed the bolts of lightning to strike his body. It did not seem to affect him all that much.
The lightning did not seem to do much damage to him. On the contrary, he could even see the energy of the lightning being absorbed into his body.
To be more precise, the Five Thunder brands were absorbing the energy of the lightning and strengthening themselves.
He had confessed to Qin Yiren, the school belle, five times in public. Even though the last two times had an audience of demons, it still counted.
The Five Thunder Technique included the Thunder of Fire, Cleansing Aquatic Lightning, Thunder of Earth, Thunder of Wood, and Golden Lung Thunder. He now had all five thunder techniques.
They were respectively branded on five of his internal organs. With his inner sight, he could clearly see that the five thunder techniques were emitting terrifying fluctuations.
This lightning tribulation made his lightning technique stronger.
At this moment, his five internal organs and qi palace had actually formed a channel that was independent of his meridians.
In his qi palace, the ordinary spiritual power of the five elements had already filled the entire qi palace.
He was already at the middle stage of the Qi Gathering Realm, and he was even moving towards the later stage.
This was all because of the lightning tribulation.
As the five brands absorbed the lightning energy, they became greatly saturated. The extra energy was transformed into ordinary spiritual power of the five elements, so his qi palace was full.
Moreover, in his qi palace, in addition to the ordinary five elemental spiritual power, there were also lightning bolts, which were also divided into five colors and five attributes.
This was the five elemental lightning spiritual power.
He had really gathered lightning-attributed spiritual power in his qi palace.
Now, he could really be treated as a genius with a lightning attribute spiritual root.
Just as he had expected, with the convergence of five thunder techniques, he practically gave birth to a lightning attribute spiritual root.
Moreover, this elemental lightning power was even stronger than the ordinary five elemental spiritual power.
At this moment, with a single thought from Lin Feng, a bolt of lightning soared into the sea of lightning on the mountain peak.
Boom!
In the next second, a level seven demonic beast nearby that was struggling to withstand the lightning storm was struck to death! It would have been able to hold on, but suddenly its aura completely dissipated!
Lin Feng grinned.
He was only testing the waters. Even if the level seven monster was not at its full strength and distracted by the lightning, it still helped to prove the might of this lightning-attributed spiritual energy.
After all, other than the item manipulation technique, he did not learn any other spells. The attack just now was purely a spiritual energy attack.
Lin Feng's mind buzzed.
In an instant, the five spiritual small swords appeared beside him and immediately shot out in all directions.
