Chapter 171 The Scapegoat
Chapter 171 The Scapegoat
Originally, this guy's goal was everyone present!
Seeing that the thunder tribulation was about to descend.
All the Soul Formation realm powerhouses present were well aware of the consequences of staying by the side of this thunder tribulation.
Once the green thunder tribulation arrived, it would be a huge blow to cultivators below the Nascent Soul realm peak!
Moreover, with the thunder tribulation about to descend, it would be difficult for the Soul Formation realm powerhouses present to consider anyone's life other than their own.
"Everyone, release your attacks towards the sky, resist the thunder tribulation, otherwise the situation will be dangerous!"
Informing everyone present to shift their focus to the thunder tribulation instead of Chu Qianqiu and the others.
Several generals from the Falling Star Empire had already taken the lead, using their attacks to resist the first wave of damage that the thunder tribulation could cause.
And others could only do the same.
Now, their top priority was to save their own lives, find a way to resist the first wave of thunder tribulation, and then quickly control the starships and leave this dangerous place.
As for this Transcending Tribulation kid, he was undoubtedly doomed now.
They didn't want to bother with such a desperate person anymore, so they would first find shelter.
...
"Boom—Boom—!!"
The thunder tribulation roared, and the sky turned upside down.
The cultivators poured their lifelong strongest attacks onto the dome of the sky at this moment.
And the three huge spiritual energy starships also deployed a defensive formation to help their cultivators resist the first wave of damage from the thunder tribulation.
The green thunder tribulation, like a mad snake, roamed within a radius of three thousand meters, and within those three thousand meters, it could punish at any time according to the will of heaven.
In an instant, centered around Chu Qianqiu, countless surges finally approached.
Thousands of thunder tribulations fell together, targeting the core area where the three starships were located.
All the cultivators from the Misty Cloud Sect and the Falling Star Empire were resisting with all their might. Many were seriously injured and many died in this thunder tribulation, but fortunately, many managed to hold on.
"It's a good thing we have three spiritual energy starships supporting us. The starships' defensive formations can help us withstand a lot of damage!"
After the first wave of thunder tribulation, the four generals of the Falling Star Empire were all relieved.
They were fortunate to have the starships, otherwise this thunder tribulation would have caused heavy casualties.
The other slightly injured cultivators also breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they had narrowly escaped death.
As for the seriously injured cultivators, they were immediately sent back to the starships to avoid being harmed again.
"Everyone, follow orders, control the spiritual energy starships, and leave this place quickly!"
"We'll let these three go today!"
After the attack of the first thunder tribulation, the generals of the Falling Star Empire knew that there would definitely be a second wave of thunder tribulation, so they quickly prepared to retreat.
As experienced individuals, they knew that the thunder tribulation at the Nascent Soul realm would descend every ten minutes.
So within these ten minutes, they had to retreat, otherwise they would face a second wave of even stronger heavenly attacks.
"Heh, since you're all here, do you think you can leave?"
Surrounded by the three starships.
At this moment, Chu Qianqiu, who was in the midst of Transcending Tribulation, suddenly opened his eyes and startled everyone present with a loud voice.
"What the hell, why can this guy speak?"
"Isn't he in the midst of Transcending Tribulation? Why can he open his eyes?"
Seeing that the damn guy they wanted to kill was now opening his eyes and even chatting during Transcending Tribulation, all the cultivators present were shocked and felt as if they had been struck dumb by lightning!
What's going on with this guy?
According to reason, all cultivators in Transcending Tribulation must enter a state of meditation. Otherwise, if their Dao heart is unstable and they fail in Transcending Tribulation, the consequences will be quite severe!
But this person, not only did he not enter a state of meditation, he even had the audacity to chat with them, as if it were a casual conversation. Isn't he crazy?
And most importantly!
Just now, the Heavenly Tribulation... didn't strike him at all!!
Another cultivator exclaimed in shock.
Some people suddenly realized that during the Heavenly Tribulation just now, it seemed that besides this Transcending Tribulation guy, everyone else present had been struck!
This guy himself is Transcending Tribulation, so why is it that he wasn't struck by the lightning, but all of us bystanders were!
This is outrageous! Why wasn't he struck by the lightning!!
...
Everyone went crazy, staring at Chu Qianqiu's face as if they wanted to kill him right now.
The generals of the Falling Star Empire were also the same.
Of course, after hearing the news that this kid wasn't struck by the lightning, the generals' angry expressions turned into confusion.
"What are you saying?"
"He wasn't struck by the lightning?"
"That's impossible!"
"It's true, General! I saw it with my own eyes!"
"Don't bullshit me! Eat shit!"
Seeing that the generals didn't believe them, the surrounding cultivators swore repeatedly that they couldn't have been mistaken.
The other powerful members of the Misty Cloud Sect also nodded. They were closer to those three just now and saw it too.
"This... I've never seen a Transcending Tribulation person not being struck by lightning!"
"Could it be that this kid is related to the Heavenly Dao? Does he have the privilege of not being struck?"
The generals were still in a daze.
Chu Qianqiu suddenly burst into laughter, pointing at the sky, telling them to open their eyes wide.
"Don't leave, the next wave of Heavenly Tribulation is about to descend."
"Why not take a good bath in this Thunder Pool!"
He said, and everyone looked up again and found that it was indeed true.
The Heavenly Tribulation that had just dissipated was gathering again, and in less than half a minute, the second wave of Heavenly Tribulation was about to arrive.
"General, what's going on?"
"Isn't the Heavenly Tribulation supposed to descend only once every ten minutes!?"
"It's only been half a minute!"
The imperial cultivators, who couldn't believe it, hadn't even had time to activate their starships to escape, and their faces were already ashen.
The generals were also stunned, never having seen such a thing happen before, completely losing their ability to respond.
"This... this?"
"Why isn't the Heavenly Dao playing by the rules?"
"Wait, the power of the lightning seems to have suddenly increased several times!"
"What a powerful pressure... even I feel afraid!"
"This is no longer the Heavenly Tribulation of the Nascent Soul stage, it's the Soul Formation stage!"
"The Heavenly Dao is actually angry... this, this is impossible!"
In the moment when those generals were stunned, an even more terrifying Heavenly Tribulation had already arrived, indiscriminately landing on the bodies of all the ants present, except in Chu Qianqiu's direction.
The screams of agony didn't even have time to spread, and many cultivators who couldn't dodge in time turned into dust on the spot, quickly starting their next phase of life.
As Chu Qianqiu looked at this apocalyptic scene, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed. He thought that the Heavenly Dao was really powerful, actually helping him strengthen his attack.
"This Heavenly Tribulation did come for me, but it couldn't find my exact location, so it struck others instead."
"And because it couldn't find my location, the Heavenly Dao was once again provoked and turned all its anger into an even more powerful Heavenly Tribulation, accelerating its descent."
"Without any surprises, these enhanced versions of the Heavenly Tribulation will once again pass me by..."
"I actually used the Heavenly Tribulation to wipe out this group of unlucky bastards!"
