“This guy is incredible!”
On the city tower, everyone watching Lin Yun face the thunder tribulation was astonished.
Even from a distance, the descending Taijin Thunder Tribulation felt terrifying.
Yet Lin Yun confronted it head-on, shattering the lightning!
“Daddy’s amazing!” Lin Kexin cheered with delight.
The citizens below the tower were equally stunned by the spectacle.
Most had never witnessed such a scene. They felt that if the lightning struck them, it would reduce them to nothing!
But Emperor Huoyun, standing on the tower, showed no joy.
He knew the true terror of the Taijin Thunder Tribulation lay ahead!
On the distant hill:
After Lin Yun shattered the second bolt, the smile vanished from his face, replaced by shock.
“Compared to the first, this second bolt’s power was a huge leap!” Lin Yun exclaimed.
“Master, each bolt’s power increases significantly,” the artifact spirit reminded.
Rumble!
A silver-white bolt, like a towering pillar, struck fiercely at Lin Yun—the third bolt!
Boom!
Lin Yun swung his sword to meet it, the clash of sword light and lightning earth-shattering, leaving the distant crowd in awe.
“It’s getting harder to endure!” Lin Yun’s expression grew grave.
Though he blocked it, it wasn’t as effortless as the previous two.
Lin Yun now felt immense pressure.
Boom!
Crack!
Moments later, brilliant lightning tore through the sky again. The fourth bolt descended, relentless despite Lin Yun’s strain.
Like a colossal pillar, the lightning streaked across the heavens, striking Lin Yun with dazzling, terrifying force.
“Come on!”
With no retreat possible, Lin Yun roared and met it with full force.
Rip!
The lightning clashed with Lin Yun’s attack.
This time, Lin Yun couldn’t shatter it.
Instead, his attack was overwhelmed, and the lightning surged toward him.
The frenzied lightning struck, tearing at his body, its energy ravaging every particle.
Lin Yun’s skin charred, his clothes turned to ash, his hair and body hair incinerated.
He looked utterly battered, his body stinging with pain.
Yet, he endured the fourth bolt.
“The power increase with each bolt is insane!” Lin Yun marveled, his pressure mounting.
The fourth bolt had pushed him to his limit, and the fifth would be even stronger!
Lin Yun knew he no longer had confidence in succeeding, his heart sinking.
But he had no choice—five more bolts awaited, and he had to endure!
After the fourth bolt, a buzzing sound emanated from the clouds above, lightning intertwining as the next bolt brewed.
On the distant city tower:
“It seems Lin Yun’s reached his limit. He’s in serious trouble now!” Immortal Bingyi’s gaze locked on the distant hill.
Emperor Huoyun said nothing, but his worry and tension deepened.
Everyone could see Lin Yun was in grave danger.
Rumble!
Crack!
After a brief silence, thunder roared again. A bolt descended in a dazzling display, far thicker and more powerful than before.
The fifth bolt of the Taijin Thunder Tribulation!
“Come on!”
Lin Yun stomped and surged upward, unleashing everything to meet it.
Since he couldn’t escape, he’d face it head-on!
When the bolt struck, Lin Yun’s attack collapsed instantly. Blood sprayed from his mouth, and he plummeted, crashing onto the hill.
Hitting the ground, Lin Yun felt his muscles torn, bones cracked, and organs damaged. Terrifying lightning coursed through him, causing unbearable pain.
Above, the massive dark clouds buzzed again, signaling the sixth bolt’s formation.
At that moment, the crowd on the city tower and below focused on Lin Yun.
“Lin Yun’s down!”
“He’s badly injured. The sixth bolt will be even stronger, and he hasn’t stood up. He might not make it…”
On the city tower:
“This Taijin Thunder Tribulation is extraordinary. I faced nine bolts in my tribulation, but they weren’t Taijin. The fifth bolt’s power nearly matches my eighth or ninth. Lin Yun…” Emperor Huoyun’s worry intensified.
“He might stand, but how can he face the sixth bolt? It’s too difficult,” Immortal Bingyi sighed, shaking his head.
The guests at the millennial celebration gasped, speculated, and wondered if Lin Yun could rise.
Amid their guesses, Lin Yun struggled to his feet on the distant hill.
On the hill:
As Lin Yun stood, another thunderclap roared. A brilliant bolt, with devastating force, struck toward him!
“Here it comes again?” Lin Yun looked up, emotions mixed.
He could tell the sixth bolt’s power far surpassed the fifth.
With his current physical state, Lin Yun’s recovery was rapid, and his injuries had mostly healed in moments.
But his condition was poor, and the sixth bolt’s escalating power brought immense pressure.
Yet he had no choice but to face it!
Boom!
The sixth bolt struck Lin Yun.
“Daddy, you have to hold on!” Lin Kexin shouted.
“Lin Yun!”
His friends and allies held their breath.
“This is bad!” Emperor Huoyun’s face paled.
Under the sixth bolt’s terrifying assault, Lin Yun was thrown back, blood gushing.
Despite his full resistance, he seemed insignificant before the sixth bolt.
Bang!
Lin Yun crashed onto the hill again, blood streaming, face ashen, body feeling broken, his injuries now critically severe.
