Dao Realm Stage Five was called the Death Tribulation Realm and this Death Tribulation referred to the tribulation that one had to go through.
However, compared to the 18 bolts of lightning at Dao Realm Stage Three and the 36 bolts of lightning at the peak of Dao Realm, this tribulation … seemed a little out of place.
This was because the number of bolts of lightning wasn't fixed. In other words, this Death Tribulation varied from person to person. Some cultivators only attracted one bolt while others attracted three or four bolts.
Based on ancient records, most people attracted four bolts but there were also those with good comprehension who attracted five or even six bolts. But no matter how many bolts one attracted, in the entire Dao Realm, most people died at this stage. This was the reason why it was called the Death Tribulation.
Since ancient times, there were cultivators who wanted to know how many bolts of lightning a Dao Realm Stage Five cultivator attracted. Some talked about their own strength and some talked about their potential. But more people thought that it was related to the Dao they comprehended.
Some people even used how many bolts of lightning a Dao Realm Stage Five attracted to measure their own Dao potential.
Of course, these were all guesses and no one could be sure as there were many factors involved.
As for how many he could attract, Qin Yu didn't care. In fact, before Qin Yu was prepared to go through the Death Tribulation, he didn't even think about it … After all, he comprehended the Lightning Punishment Dao and normal lightning tribulations were just a formality to him.
But as Qin Yu felt the deafening sound of thunder accompanied by a terrifying pressure, an intense sense of impending doom rose in his heart. It was only then that he realized something was wrong. The Dao of Thunder Punishment simply couldn't be confused with the other Daos. As for the death calamity that the Dao of Thunder Punishment would summon … it was unimaginable.
After taking a deep breath, Qin Yu looked at the thunderbolt beast egg. He originally wanted to take it back into his spatial ring, but after hesitating for a moment, he didn't. Instead, he tossed the thunderbolt beast egg to the edge of the area where the tribulation was taking place, along with his spatial ring. The heavenly tribulation he attracted this time was unprecedentedly powerful. Even Qin Yu didn't dare to do so.
He didn't dare to be careless.
"Hong long long!"
The entire heaven and earth shook along with the loud explosion. The space was like boiling water.
Qin Yu took a deep breath. He adjusted his condition to the limit in order to welcome this heavenly thunder.
"Rumble!"
After a full hour of incubation, when the entire world was enveloped in daylight, Qin Yu, who was sitting cross-legged, had his hair turned into fine powder, and a hole was blasted open on the top of his head. He let out a muffled groan, and his powerful physical body began to crack inch by inch. From the cracks, there was a smell of burnt meat.
This Heavenly Thunder not only contained a dense Thunder of Thunder Punishment, but it also contained a power that could destroy the world.
If the Thunder of Thunder Punishment could be divided into several grades, the Thunder of Thunder Punishment in the first natural chasm of Untainted Territory was Level One. The Thunder of Thunder Punishment before leaving the sect was Level Two and Level Three. Therefore, this Thunder of Thunder Punishment was at least Level Four!
And this was only the first one!!
Qin Yu, who knew that the Thunder Calamity this time was extremely terrifying, guarded his mind and resisted it bitterly.
"Rumble!"
From time to time, roars could be heard from the thunderclouds above, and flashes of lightning illuminated the heaven and earth.
Qin Yu's body was in an extremely bad condition. The overbearing power contained in this Heavenly Thunder almost burst his physical body, and the ultimate power bombarded every part of his body. Fortunately, his physical body had already been baptized by the Thunder of Thunder Punishment, otherwise, it would have turned into ashes.
"Hong!"
"Hong!"
"Hong!"
"Hong!"
"Hong!"
It was as if the first Heavenly Thunder was just an appetizer, and then, five consecutive Heavenly Thunder came one after another, and the interval was less than a breath's time. It was as if … they were going to kill Qin Yu right there and then.
"Are they trying to kill me?
Aren't there only four?
Why are there six? "
Qin Yu was extremely shocked. Each of the five Heavenly Thunder was stronger than the first one. The five Heavenly Thunder destroyed Qin Yu's physical body in an instant. Except for the Xuanwu Bone and the spine on his back, almost all of Qin Yu's bones were destroyed.
Shattered.
This terrifying Thunder Punishment Lightning rushed into Qin Yu's Sea of Bitterness and Dantian, destroying anything that could be destroyed.
Cracks appeared on the originally powerful Thunder Punishment Dao Nascent Soul. The line scar between his eyebrows seemed to be alive as it shuttled back and forth within the terrifying Thunder Punishment Lightning.
As for the Soul Dao Nascent Soul, a weak light bloomed between its eyebrows. It was as immovable as a mountain, and was not affected by the Thunder Punishment Lightning at all. It was directly blasted into pieces by the Thunder Punishment Lightning and floated in the Dantian.
As for the Thunder Imprint, it was also flickering with light as it crazily devoured the Thunder Punishment Lightning.
As for the Divine Soul Blade in the Divine Soul Sea and the Azure Imprint in the Sea of Bitterness, they had all suffered a certain amount of damage. However, after withstanding the bombardment of the Thunder Punishment Lightning, this terrifying Thunder Punishment Lightning was actually nurturing Qin Yu's entire body.
After Qin Yu recovered from his shock, he knew that this was a calamity and also a good fortune. He guarded his Divine Soul to the death and comprehended the terrifying Dao contained within the Thunder Punishment Lightning.
Qin Yu, who was immersed in comprehending the Thunder Punishment Dao, did not know that the rolling thunderclouds above suddenly gathered rapidly and turned into a huge eye. This huge eye was hidden in the thunderclouds, and if one did not pay attention, they would not be able to notice it.
This huge eye stared at Qin Yu below. Because it was condensed from thunderclouds, it was impossible to see what kind of emotions this huge eye contained. However, after a long time, the huge eye narrowed slightly, as if it had made some kind of decision.
"Rumble!"
Accompanied by an earth-shattering sound, the huge eye disappeared, and the entire world fell into daylight.
"Boom!"
Another bolt of Heavenly Thunder struck down.
If the previous five bolts of Thunder Punishment Lightning were said to be at the peak of the fourth grade, then this one was definitely at the peak of the fifth grade. It was as if it wanted to erase Qin Yu from this world.
The terror of this Thunder Punishment Lightning instantly caused the Thunder Punishment Dao Nascent Soul in Qin Yu's body to shatter into pieces, and the weak light that enveloped the Soul Dao Nascent Soul shattered. Even the Soul Dao Nascent Soul, as well as the Fiend Dragon and the Piebald Dragon, were instantly shattered into pieces.
Dantian, Sea of Bitterness, Divine Soul Blade, Azure Imprint, and right hand Chasing Famine's palm all shattered … As for the Black Tortoise Bone, dense cracks appeared on its body, and only its spine and the Thunder Imprint remained intact … Other than that, everything else was destroyed by the Thunder Punishment Lightning and turned into pieces.
！
It could be said that at this moment, Qin Yu was no different from having his soul scattered.
However, the difference was that Qin Yu's soul seemed to contain some kind of life force. Even under such circumstances, the fragments of his soul still did not turn into dust.
And the experience in the Ghost Realm allowed Qin Yu to break out of his cocoon and be reborn once again. His soul fragments were actually slowly gathering together.
