War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

The blindingly bright flash happened to block the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan’s sight as he peered past the Tribulation Clouds.

At the same time.

Boom!

As soon as the dazzling purple and white light flashed, a deafening and earth-splitting thunderclap sounded in the air. Then, the people present on the scene saw a bolt of lightning as thick as an adult’s arm struck from the Tribulation Clouds toward Yuwen Hao Chen, the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace.

“It’s the lightning strike!”

“The first lightning strike is here!”

Many people said the same thing when they saw the bolt of lightning. However, their eyes widened in shock when they saw that before the lightning strike could land on Yuwen Hao Chen and before he had a chance to deflect it, another dazzling purple and white light flashed in the sky. It hurt the eyes of many people with a lower cultivation base.

Boom!

Another deafening and earth-splitting thunderclap sounded in the air as though it could destroy heaven. Quickly following that, a lightning bolt as thick as an adult’s arms struck as well. This bolt of lightning was similar to the one that was heading for Yuwen Hao Chen.

“What’s happening?”

“Why is the second bolt of lightning striking when the first bolt of lightning hasn’t even had a chance to strike Lord Palace Master?”

“I don’t think this is the second lightning bolt. It seems similar to the first one. I wonder what’s happening…”

“Is it possible that the first strike contains two lightning bolts?”

“That’s impossible! The Celestial Ascension Tribulation has a total of 81 lightning bolts. Each strike would follow one after another… If the lightning bolts come so fast one after another, the Celestial Ascension Tribulation would be over very quickly. Would there be a need for us to wait for a few days?”

You’re right… However, what’s with this situation?”

Not only were the few Vice Palace Masters of Wandering Saint Palace confused, but even Shi Nan Feng, the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace, and the other Vice Palace Masters and Vice Hall Masters from the Three Palaces and Six Halls were confused as well. They could not comprehend what was happening.

Up above the Tribulation Clouds.

The Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan finally managed to look at what was happening. Naturally, he saw the two lightning bolts that appeared one after another as well. Similarly, he was confused. After all, he had passed the Celestial Ascension Tribulation and knew that the second lightning bolt would only appear an hour after the first strike. Moreover, the second lightning bolt would be stronger and thicker in size! This completely contradicted his knowledge of the Celestial Ascension Tribulation. “Master, why are there two identical lightning bolts?”

“Well, isn’t it common to have two identical lightning bolts if there were two people facing the Celestial Ascension Tribulation at the same time?” The grey-clad old man replied knowingly to the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan. His seemingly all-seeing eyes peered through the Tribulation Clouds and landed on a purple figure…

Under the Tribulation Clouds.

The high-ranking officials of the Three Palaces and Six Halls were still shocked over the second lightning bolt when they were further shocked because the second lightning bolt did not strike at Yuwen Hao Chen. Instead, it struck a figure standing in the distance.

Peng Lai suddenly cried out, “Watch out, master!”

Duan Ling Tian was completely engrossed in his new comprehension of heaven and earth was woken up by Peng Lai’s cry. As soon as he regained his senses, he could feel as though he was the target of something. “This is…” He was shocked and baffled when he saw a lightning bolt as thick as an adult’s arm striking at him. The lightning bolt was like a ferocious dragon that was attacking him. At this moment, many thoughts flitted through his mind.

What’s wrong with this lightning bolt?’

It’s not striking at Yuwen Hao Chen?’

Isn’t he facing the Celestial Ascension Tribulation?’

What’s happening?’

The lightning bolt had almost reached him at this point…

No! It can’t strike here. It’ll endanger Ke’er, Si Ling, and Gan Ru Yan! Since its target is me, I’ll have to bring it away!’ Duan Ling Tian instantly mobilized his Saint Origin and cast the movement Divine Ability, the Golden Crow’s Wings. A pair of flaming wings instantly sprouted from his back. However, the Golden Crow’s Wings were different from how it usually looked. It was a much darker gold before. This was due to the Sun Force leaving his body.

Nevertheless, when Duan Ling Tian mobilized his Saint Origin, it seemed to resonate strongly with heaven and earth.

It seems like my ability to comprehend heaven and earth has reached its peak after rising so rapidly. I thought I had hit a bottleneck, but it’s actually the limit. Based on the way my Saint Origin resonates with heaven and earth, I feel that my comprehension of heaven and earth is no different from Yuwen Hao Chen’s comprehension three years ago! I can’t believe my ability to comprehend heaven and earth has risen so quickly to the limit!’

The quick rise of Duan Ling Tian’s comprehension of heaven and earth made him feel as though he was cheating or given a cheat while playing a game. After all, he had just broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, but his ability to comprehend heaven and earth had been raised to its limit in less than a day! Normally, it would take someone who had just broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage tens of years to several thousand years just to reach this stage. However, it had only taken him a few hours! It was only natural that he was amazed by his progress!

Duan Ling Tian wondered to himself, ‘Is it due to the Sun Force that left my body?’

However, his thought was quickly interrupted by the incoming lightning bolt.

Golden Crow’s Wings!’ Duan Ling Tian flapped his wings and flew far into the distance with just a thought.

It even feels different when I cast the Divine Ability, the Golden Crow’s Wings. The process is much smoother and seems more natural. It seems like I can cast it easily with my Saint Origin!”

Naturally, now that Duan Ling Tian’s ability to comprehend heaven and earth had been raised to its limit, his Saint Origin had improved as well. Previously, he merely felt a slight connection between his Saint Origin and heaven and earth. However, currently, he could sense the strong resonance between his Saint Origin and heaven and earth!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Thunder continued to ring in the sky as the lightning bolt followed Duan Ling Tian closely.

When Duan Ling Tian led the lightning bolt away from Ke’er, Duan Si Ling, and Gan Ru Yan, he discovered there was another identical lightning bolt. However, that lightning bolt was making its way to Yuwen Hao Chen. “There’s another lightning bolt?” At the same time, he saw Yuwen Hao Chen lifting his hand and releasing his Saint Origin that resonated strongly with heaven and earth, easily destroying the lightning bolt that was approaching him.

“T-this lightning bolt that’s following after me doesn’t seem like it belongs to Yuwen Hao Chen… It seems like it belongs to me! How’s this possible?” Although Duan Ling Tian found this hard to believe, he had no choice but to accept what was presented before him.

When Duan Ling Tian was certain he had gone far enough that it would not endanger Ke’er and the other two ladies, he finally stopped moving. His gaze turned cold as he lifted his arm. Like a dragon charging out, he released his Saint Origin which seemed as endless as the sea. He cried out, “Break!”

Duan Ling Tian’s Saint Origin which seemed as vast the sea easily overwhelmed the lightning strike.

The two lightning bolts were easily destroyed by Yuwen Hao Chen and Duan Ling Tian. They made it seem so easy that it seemed as though they were having fun doing it.
