Beast Taming: Sharing Pets' Abilities-Chapter 466 - 465: Weathering the Heavenly Tribulation

Chapter 466: Chapter 465: Weathering the Heavenly Tribulation

Only by overcoming this lightning tribulation can his Golden Core be perfected, and only then can Gu Yuan be considered a true Golden Core Great Cultivator!

It seemed that the thunderclouds in the sky sensed Gu Yuan’s current status, as the thunder and lightning flashed for a moment before suddenly,

Rumble——!!!

A dazzling deep blue bolt of lightning struck out from the thunderclouds, striking straight towards Gu Yuan.

This bolt of lightning was as thick as a house and over thirty zhang long. As it appeared, the surrounding void was filled with countless tiny streaks of lightning.

The sky was illuminated in a blue-white brilliance within a radius of hundreds of li, dazzling the eye.

A pressure so overwhelming that it made one’s chest constrict and breathing difficult poured out and spread, even the cultivators observing from dozens of li away could sense the terrifying power of this lightning.

Facing this strike, Gu Yuan’s expression remained unchanged, he merely circulated his mana, preparing to withstand it head-on.

It wasn’t arrogance; Gu Yuan could feel the power within this bolt of lightning.

Though indeed terrifying, an ordinary Golden Core Great Cultivator struck by it would perish on the spot, their soul dissipating. However, Gu Yuan himself had achieved the prototype of the Thunder Skill Great Divine Technique, Chaos Divine Thunder.

The power of this lightning was indeed great, but essentially it was merely at the level of the Purple Sky Divine Thunder. To Gu Yuan, it posed no threat at all.

Rumble! Rumble!

The lightning first fell on Yu Qiubai’s cave mansion, easily piercing through the layers of restriction power and penetrating the rock ceiling above Gu Yuan.

Then, it fell on Gu Yuan’s head.

The next moment, with crackling sounds, as countless tiny blue lightning flickered, Gu Yuan was enveloped in the lightning, crazily devouring this bolt of lightning.

If this had happened before his Core Formation, this bolt might have posed some threat to Gu Yuan, but now, it posed absolutely no threat to him.

In fact, for Gu Yuan, who had achieved Core Formation, this terrifying bolt of lightning was nothing more than a tasty snack.

Not long after, all the destructive and blazing lightning surrounding Gu Yuan’s body was completely devoured by him.

On the surface of Gu Yuan’s Golden Core, a faint blue light flashed and then receded.

At this point, the thunderclouds above seemed to have sensed the earlier situation, triggering a "furious" reaction.

The thunderclouds churned, thunder and lightning surging.

Countless bolts of lightning gathered, transforming into a deep blue and purple-red thunder pillar pressing down.

Simultaneously, pure white celestial flames ignited on its surface, twisting the air wherever it passed.

Compared to the previous lightning, this thunder pillar was already approaching the prototype level of Great Divine Techniques in nature, its power increased by at least tenfold.

Facing this strike, Gu Yuan took it seriously, immediately deploying a series of seemingly fragile, yet tough and daunting protective layers using the Heaven and Earth Devouring Divine Techniques above his head.

Although the Heaven and Earth Devouring Divine Techniques were not a prototype of Great Divine Techniques, they were infinitely useful, capable of devouring enemy attacks.

Yet solely relying on the Heaven and Earth Devouring Divine Techniques was evidently insufficient, as a layer of black-purple lightning spread over Gu Yuan, interweaving and condensing, forming armor crafted from Chaos Divine Thunder.

Just then, the thunder pillar descended.

As it fell onto the pitch-black protection layers above Gu Yuan’s head, the thunder pillar’s power, along with the surrounding celestial fire, was rapidly devoured, ultimately shattering when it could no longer withstand the force.

With each protective layer breached, the thunder pillar’s power weakened slightly.

After breaking through dozens of protective layers, the thunder pillar noticeably dimmed and then landed on Gu Yuan.

Crackle! Crackle!

At the instant the deep blue lightning collided with the armor composed of Chaos Divine Thunder on Gu Yuan’s body, a brilliant light erupted. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Deep blue, purple-red, pure white, and black-purple lightning and flames intertwined, canceled, and exploded.

As the light gradually faded, the armor on Gu Yuan’s body was ragged, and even his skin had turned charred black in many places.

However, Gu Yuan’s aura remained deep and profound, with his body showing no signs of injury.

With a flash of water-light, the black-gray marks on his body instantly vanished.

Yet the mana within Gu Yuan was depleted by a full twenty percent.

Even the entire training room was destroyed.

The stone walls originally set with restriction arrays had either melted or been shattered by lightning, turning into complete ruins.

At this moment, the thunderclouds above continued brewing, rumbling incessantly like an enraged fearsome beast.

Countless bolts of lightning quickly gathered, fused, and brewed, seemingly about to birth something terrifying.

Strands of true flame also gathered, intelligently forming into a pure white giant python, as thick as a train and over twenty zhang long.

In an instant, Gu Yuan felt the pressure from above multiply several times, even he was now feeling a sense of pressure.

This made Gu Yuan immediately realize that the upcoming Thunder Celestial Fire would certainly see a surge in power.

As expected, after brewing for roughly the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the gathered lightning suddenly contracted, transforming into a multi-colored bolt, striking directly at Gu Yuan.

Compared to the previous two bolts, this multi-colored lightning was only as thick as an arm, about several meters long, yet the moment it struck down, Gu Yuan felt an ominous shadow in his heart, a terrifying sense of crisis growing.

Not only the lightning, but the heavenly fire python also transformed into a pure white gold-tinged little snake that charged at him simultaneously, its scales dense and tight, its eyes lively and sinister, looking lifelike like a living creature.

Whether it was this multi-colored lightning or the over-three-zhang-long pure white gold-tinged little snake, both felt more powerful than even the prototype Great Divine Techniques he had cultivated, already carrying some power of actual Great Divine Techniques!

Now, this combination of lightning and fire fully possessed power sufficient to threaten Gu Yuan!

Gu Yuan was not one to await his death, seeing the dangerous situation, he decisively acted, his lifebound flying sword, the Primordial Jade Scenery Sword, transformed into a brilliant sword light, bursting forth with an earth-shattering sharp sword intent, slicing down on the pure white gold-tinged little snake.

The little snake, though seeming slender and small, was, in reality, due to being condensed from heavenly fire, exceptionally hard and scalding, capable of easily melting metal and stone.

If its power was to erupt, even Gu Yuan would be gravely injured.

When the sword light from the Primordial Jade Scenery Sword struck, a concealed sound reminiscent of clashing metals rang out, then, the snake’s body was completely shredded.

The sword light turned visibly red, scorched by the heat.
