In an instant, the aftermath of the heavenly thunder dissipated within the Water Mansion. Those of the water clan at the periphery of the Water Mansion were directly stunned by the mere touch of the heavenly thunder.
Fortunately, at that moment, only the Dragon Girl, who had provoked the heavenly tribulation, was left in the Water Mansion. The rest of the water clan had already fled when the heavenly tribulation started to gather its power. After all, who would stay with the one about to face a tribulation if they weren’t looking for trouble?
‘Man, this is damn unfair!” Feng Qing’an, who had also wisely avoided the thunder in advance, maintained a water-free area around him. Looking at the members of the water clan around the Water Mansion who were stunned by the aftermath of the heavenly thunder, he couldn’t help but exclaim.
At this moment, Feng Qing’an was not using the power of any of his battle beasts. This water-free area that barely accommodated himself was entirely created by his own power, which, even when not trying hard, had made him an extraordinary being.
“The princess probably doesn’t fully understand her own power. The bloodline she inherited from Cangjiang is strong enough, so she only hastily refined the water veins and accumulated enough power to naturally promote her, leading to the heavenly tribulation unexpectedly!”
Upon hearing Feng Qing’an’s words, the experienced old turtle immediately explained.
“A breakthrough without any anticipation?”
Upon hearing such an explanation, Feng Qing’an snorted and looked back at the imposing black wolf standing behind him. This beast had seriously suppressed its power when it was about to make a breakthrough to become a great demon. It had refined its demonic power twelve times in a row, reached its limit, and then finally made a breakthrough.
“Young master, you’re unaware. For those born with a strong bloodline, strength growth is as simple and natural as eating and drinking for ordinary people. They can even get stronger just by sleeping all day!”
Seeing Feng Qing’an’s attitude, the old turtle explained.
He too had experienced such feeling when he was young. But after becoming a great demon, he realized that every step forward required a thousand times the effort, and it might not even have a return.
“Her bloodline is indeed good, but if you want to say she’s very strong, that may not be true. She won’t go very far!”
Feng Qing’an had already figured out the details of the Dragon Girl. Her strength was just on par with her brother’s, even if she was stronger, it wouldn’t be by much.
“Perhaps you see it this way, but in my opinion, she is more than capable to serve as the monarch of this river. If she gets any stronger, she might follow this river all the way to the sea!”
“You got a point there!”
Feng Qing’an glanced at the old turtle, looked through the whirlpool to the clouds above it, where thunderbolts of tribulation came down one after another, each of them carrying a destructive energy but also a touch of life force.
One could gain this vitality by forcibly enduring the thunder tribulation. If one managed to avoid the thunder in some other way, then they’d also miss out on the life force contained within the destruction.
When the heavenly tribulation arrives, one can cross it or evade it, but the gains after enduring it are entirely different.
“Pay close attention, these will be what you guys have to face in the future!”
Feng Qing’an stared attentively at the thunder tribulation, with a particular focus on its target, the selected Water Monarch. If she failed to endure the tribulation and turned into ash under the tribulation thunder, then he would be at a great loss.
woofHiss-
Black Mountain, Bai Yao, and Bright Dragon all nodded seriously. As for Sen Miao, they were entirely focused. They all had the confidence to reach the level of demon king, so the heavenly tribulation would be a test they must face.
The old turtle silently glanced at them and said nothing. With his vision now, he could naturally see that any creature beside this young master had unlimited prospects. No wonder this young master didn’t think highly of the position of the Water Monarch and tried every means to hand this position over to someone else.
If it wasn’t for his divination that told him he had no connection or fate with the young master, the old turtle would forsake his pride and plead persistently to secure a place beside him. Unfortunately, it wasn’t meant for him.
Since there’s no fate, it shouldn’t be forced, otherwise there would be a disaster.
The heavenly tribulation has nine rounds , each round more vicious than the last. Even standing on the sidelines made one feel the terrifying pressure and despair from the tribulation.
But these are just feelings from the bystanders, none of it compares to the feelings of the one undergoing the tribulation itself.
The first round of Heavenly Tribulation was merely nine consecutive strikes of lightning, but by the last round, it turned into a thunderstorm made of interwoven lightning and thunderbolts, falling down from the center of the tribulation cloud.
Even if the waterfall wrought from heavenly lightning was only a few feet wide, it still left a profound impression on Feng Qing’an. The sight was awe-inspiring, but the overwhelming power of destruction embedded within it sent shivers down the spines of all present spirits, including the old turtles.
Crackle crackle-
The tribulation clouds that stretched nearly a hundred miles in the sky began to slowly dissipate with accompanying streaks of blue lighting. The oppressive and stifling atmosphere brought by the Heavenly Tribulation also weakened with the dispersing clouds, until it was completely gone.
As the Heavenly Tribulation retreated, a massive whirlpool stretching several dozens of miles on River broke apart. Waves crashed against the shores, while rocks rained down from the sky. Even the banks of the river were shaken. If not for the spirits acting in unison to keep things under control, they may have invited some disaster.
“Did he succeed or fail?”
Beneath the water surface, all was quiet. The water clan members who had previously left the Water Mansion to avoid the Heavenly Tribulation looked at each other in confusion. Under the last Heavenly Tribulation, the increasingly powerful aura that emanated like a robust seedling gradually lost its signs of life beneath the thunderous waterfall.
“Has he fallen?”
“No, not yet!”
Accompanied by the sound of an ancient voice, a breath of life weakly fluttered before suddenly blossoming. In an instant, it was as if a monarch who had been sleeping at the bottom of the river for a long time had opened his eyes.
The terrifying Dragon’s Might instantly covered a section of the river stretching hundreds of miles. Countless members of the water clan submitted to it and burst into cheers, swarming towards the Water Mansion. Even from the water surface. one could see the wriggling silver scales.
At this moment, even the boldest fisherman didn’t dare to cast his net. Even though they could have attained an abundant catch with a single swipe of their nets, as a fisherman, they knew that there were some taboos they must not violate. Otherwise, if they took advantage of the situation for one meal now, they would risk losing their future livelihoods.
“So, this is how it is!”
On Feng Qing’an’s face, previously devoid of any emotion, a joyful expression made its appearance. He looked at the being rising from the Water Mansion, now completely transformed, his eyes full of contemplation.
[Race: Dragon People]
[Attributes: Dragon, Divinity, Wind, Water, Thunder]
[Potential Rank: Monarch ? Superior]
[Battle Strength Rank: Monarch ? Inferior]
The Dragon Girl, who had crossed the Heavenly Tribulation, looked entirely different from when he first met her. The Dragon Horn on her forehead was sharper and more refined, almost like a crown. The scale pattern on her cheeks had turned into fine red scales. But most importantly, under the new clothes, she had a long dragon tail.
In comparison to before, the current Jiang Yue resembled the Dragon Clan more closely. Something that caught Feng Qing’an’s attention was not these changes, but the potential that she now demonstrated.
Feng Qing’an distinctly remembered that he never paid any heed to the Dragon Girl before. However, her potential had remarkably increased. Reflecting on the process of her crossing the tribulation, Feng Qing’an had some realization.
Heavenly Tribulation is a punishment, and at the same time, it is a form of fortune. As long as one could pass the test, they would receive the reward from the Heavenly Dao and undergo a rebirth, which would only be natural.
“Feng Qing’an, return my sword!”
While Feng Qing’an was making a summary, Jiang Yue, who had just passed the Heavenly Tribulation, suddenly appeared beside him. She now had the divinity of a Dragon Lord. The golden dragon blood in her eyes exuded the grandeur of a Dragon Lord. Even without considering her tail, she stood nearly three feet tall, looking down at Feng Qing’an from above.
“Sword? What sword?”
Feng Qing’an looked up at the newly ascended goddess without any hint of fear. Instead, he was filled with intense interest as he observed the changes in her compared to before. He could even smell a faint, elegant fragrance coming from the Dragon Girl, a distinct scent that could be picked up even underwater.
“Sundering Sea Sword!”
Feeling the spiritual power in her body surge, Jiang Yue seemed to have gathered some confidence. She glared at Feng Qing’an, emphasizing each word.
“What do you mean ‘your’ Sundering Sea Sword? Have you been stricken silly by the Heavenly Thunder? Now that you’ve become the ruler of water, this sword belongs to me, under my surname! “
