Zhang Jingyun laughed heartily as he brought Wang Lin over and introduced him to everyone.
The eight or nine cultivators that had obviously just entered the 7 Million Worlds all clasped their hands at Wang Lin and chatted with him. They were all talking about Wang Lin's fame. As for their inner thoughts, Wang Lin could read them like a group of children.
As for the four cultivators like Zhang Jingyun, they all looked at Wang Lin like they were looking at a lamb. They put on a fake smile and said a few words.
The other cultivators outside the formation all had indifferent expressions. They naturally saw through what was going on, but no one paid any attention to them.
This kind of thing often happened in the central square of the 7 Million Worlds.
Zhang Jingyun and company formed a circle around Wang Lin to prevent any accidents from happening. Wang Lin looked at them and closed his eyes. He didn't look at the messages they were sending him.
"Brother Zhang is indeed powerful. You actually managed to get Yu Fei, who just entered the Scatter Thunder Rankings. I admire you!"
"However, we still have to be careful. Since this person was able to enter the Scatter Thunder Rankings, he must have something special about him. It's best if we don't make any mistakes."
"Brother Zhou is being too careful. This person is only at the early stage of Ascendant. Forget the four of us attacking at the same time, any one of us can kill him!
In addition, with Senior Zhao here, this person won't be able to do anything! "
"That's right, Senior Zhao's cultivation is at the Illusory Yin stage and is one step away from the Corporeal Yang stage. He is above tens of thousands of people, so with Senior here, we naturally have to respect him."
"Now that we've collected the Spiritual Thunder of this group of newcomers, we can finally condense a complete Spiritual Thunder together. Then, we can go to the Thunder Crystal Palace to exchange for the four Celestial Grade Flying Swords!"
It didn't take long before the hundreds of cultivators in the spell formation began to glow brightly, as if it were about to be activated. The surrounding cultivators immediately perked up, and some even looked excited. Clearly, they enjoyed the feeling of becoming the Dao of the Heavens.
Even the Illusory Yin cultivator in Zhang Jingyun's group licked his lips.
A moment later, the array formation rumbled and Wang Lin opened his eyes.
"Everyone, the formation has been activated. Hurry up and take out your talismans. The five of us will work together to protect the formation so that we won't be separated after we enter. When the time comes, we will enter the 7 Million Worlds and become Heavenly Daos together. Wouldn't that be great!" Zhang Jingyun revealed an excited expression and smiled.
"The feeling of becoming the Heavenly Axiom, as long as you try it once, I'm afraid you'll like it. Alright, enough talk. Let's go in!"
Seeing that Wang Lin and the others had taken out their Spirit Talismans, Zhang Jingyun immediately spoke. Surrounded by them, everyone immediately flew up and headed straight for the array formation.
The moment they stepped into the Spirit Formation, the Spirit Formation shone brightly and rumbled loudly. It formed a storm that seemed to be able to tear apart the starry sky. It swept up everyone and instantly split open the heavens and earth, disappearing into the Spirit Formation!
Heaven and earth rumbled. In one of the 7 Million Worlds, wind and rain intersected, forming an endless tempest. Thunder rumbled, and bean-sized raindrops fell from the clouds.
Inside this world, there was a mortal city on the ground. It was currently night and the rain was falling. There were very few people on the ground.
However, there was a person standing on top of a mountain in the distance!
This person had a head of white hair and his eyes were like lightning. In this dark night, he was like the sun. His body was tall and straight, and he gave off the aura of a peak Soul Formation cultivator. His white hair fluttered in the wind and his blue robe flapped loudly.
"I, Lu Bei, started cultivating at the age of seven. I understood the changes in the world and watched the wind and clouds move. At the age of 372, I reached Soul Formation. Now, I have cultivated for more than 500 years and finally reached the peak of Soul Formation. Today, I will break open this world and welcome the divine retribution to enter the Celestial Realm and become a celestial!"
The old man's voice was calm as if he was talking to himself. However, his head was facing the sky as if he was roaring at the heavens!
"If you fail this divine retribution, you will be reincarnated. If you succeed, I'll be waiting for you in the Celestial Realm!" The old man's eyes lit up and he waved his sleeve. Thunder rumbled!
As the thunder rumbled, it lit up the dark world. There were thousands of cultivators kneeling around the mountain. They were all excited and looked at the old man on the mountain with fanatical gazes!
They were all this old man's disciples and grand disciples!
"Become a celestial, become a celestial! I, Lu Bei, will become a celestial today!
If divine retribution blocks me, then I'll go through divine retribution. If celestials block me, then I'll kill them! "The old man let out a roar and charged into the sky.
At the same time, the world rumbled and the clouds scattered. Divine retribution clouds appeared out of nowhere and gathered in the sky. As they gathered, they turned into large amounts of divine retribution clouds!
One could faintly see more than 10 shadows on the divine retribution clouds. These shadows gave off a crystalline glow and gave off celestial spiritual energy. They looked like real celestials!
This was especially the case behind these dozen or so void figures. It was as if space was torn apart, revealing a majestic continent. There were pavilions everywhere, immortal energy swirling about. One could vaguely see countless immortal cranes dancing about, even more so immortal palaces standing tall!
"Celestial Realm!!!
That is the Celestial Realm!!! "
"Ancestor's divine retribution this time has more than 10 celestials appearing at the same time!!
This is an auspicious sign!!
An auspicious sign!! "
The thousands of cultivators around the mountain all widened their eyes and stared at the sky in excitement. This was the first time they had seen something like this in their lives!
The moment they saw this, their desire to become celestials increased like crazy!
The moment the divine retribution clouds appeared, a pressure descended, causing the ground to tremble. The thousands of cultivators around the mountain were immediately pushed away and expelled from the area within five kilometers!
Wang Lin was one of the shadows. He stared blankly at the scene below him. It was a very strange feeling. Others might be extremely excited. After all, the feeling of becoming the heavens and sending down divine retribution was enough to make most cultivators immerse themselves in it. They wouldn't be able to escape it, nor would they be willing to escape it!
However, Wang Lin had personally experienced divine retribution, and not just once, but several times!
This was something that almost no cultivator could understand or comprehend!
Wang Lin had experienced divine retribution before, and his divine retribution was exactly the same as the one the old man was facing!
However, the range was larger and the power was stronger!
A terrifying feeling filled Wang Lin's heart. He couldn't participate in the excitement, nor was he excited at all!
Zhang Jingyun's eyes were filled with excitement as he quickly clasped his hands at the people around him. "According to the rules, once the formation is activated, we will encounter the person undergoing the retribution. This time, don't fight with me, how about you let me have it?"
"Alright, we'll let Brother Zhang have it!" The others laughed and nodded.
The excitement in Zhang Jingyun's eyes became even stronger. His body flickered as he stepped out from the clouds and appeared under the divine retribution clouds!
At this moment, his body was filled with celestial spiritual energy. Anyone who saw him would feel the urge to worship him. He raised his right hand and pointed at the old man below him as a thunderous voice came from his mouth.
"Cultivators of the lower realm, go through the divine retribution to ascend!"
The moment Zhang Jingyun finished speaking, thunder roared from the tribulation clouds above him. A bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket shot out from the clouds and charged downwards!
The old man named Lu Bei stared dumbfoundedly at the more than 10 shadows above the divine retribution clouds, and his scalp went numb. He didn't expect his divine retribution to attract so many celestials!
However, at the same time, a sense of pride filled his heart. He let out a roar and his cultivation surrounded his body as he charged toward the divine retribution Thunder!
A deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth, causing the world to tremble. Even the rain falling from the sky collapsed at this moment!
After the Thunder passed, the old man's face turned pale and the several treasures before him collapsed.
However, he didn't despair. His eyes revealed an unyielding gaze as he let out a roar. His hands formed a seal and he set up a large amount of protection to prepare for the second bolt of divine retribution!
Wang Lin stared at all of this in a daze. His mind was shaken, and it took a long time for him to calm down. At this moment, there was a newcomer beside him, a young man in black. He asked with a puzzled expression, "Fellow cultivators, why doesn't the divine retribution kill this person at once? Why does it have to gradually strengthen each bolt?"
The moment this question was asked, Wang Lin's eyes revealed a strange light. The divine retribution he had gone through was the same. Usually, the first bolt of divine retribution wasn't strong, but it gradually became stronger and stronger!
Before entering the 7 Million Worlds, this question wasn't on Wang Lin's mind. It was as if everything was supposed to be like this, and there was no doubt about it. But now, this question had rushed into his mind like lightning!
"The heavens have the virtue of cherishing life. Even in danger, there is always a chance of survival. The divine retribution is only to temper the cultivators of the lower realm. Only by becoming stronger and stronger can one's mind be destroyed and feel the might of the heavens!
"Of course, this is just a high-sounding explanation from the clan!
"But in truth, the reason why the divine retribution is becoming stronger and stronger is to force out the lower realm cultivator's will to struggle for survival and his unyielding will. Only by doing this can the mysterious power known as Spiritual Thunder be born within his body!" The cultivator named Zhou who was talking to Zhang Jingyun slowly said.
When Wang Lin heard these words, they were different. He closed his eyes, and great waves were set off in his mind. He seemed to understand something …. Thunderous booms echoed down below as a second, third, fourth, and fifth bolt of divine retribution lightning appeared under Zhang Jingyun's control. At this moment, Zhang Jingyun's face was twisted with endless excitement. To him, this feeling was 1,000 times, 10,000 times more comfortable than dual cultivation!
"I am the Heavenly Dao, send down Thunder!"
Thunder rumbled as the old man coughed out blood under the force of the divine retribution. His body was a bloody mess, and his eyes were filled with despair!
It was at this moment that the sixth bolt of divine retribution lightning arrived!
This sixth bolt of divine retribution lightning was dozens of feet thick, and as soon as it appeared, it caused heaven and earth to tremble violently, as if the earth were about to collapse!
The old man struggled to let out the last roar of his life!
"I want to become an immortal!!"
This shocking roar entered Wang Lin's ears, causing him to open his eyes.
Thunderous booms filled the air as the sixth bolt of divine retribution lightning fell. The old man's body collapsed, and he was killed in body and soul!
The third update was sent, but his monthly votes were slowly increasing. He didn't want to watch anymore, so he cut off the connection and continued writing the fourth update!
