Chapter 265: Chapter 260 Tribulation, Transformation_1

That guy is so dumb, just dodging would do!

"Crack!" With a sound, the Snake King collided with the lightning, blindingly bright. He Tiantian shut her eyes, too afraid to look.

When things outside quieted down a bit, He Tiantian finally opened her eyes.

She saw that the Snake King’s body had turned completely into charred carbon, with wisps of smoke still faintly rising from it.

Despite his disheveled appearance, the Snake King’s head was still raised, showing no fear of the recent lightning strike.

"Good, good!" He Tiantian thought it was over, the Snake King had passed the Heavenly Tribulation.

"There are still two strikes left!" the Little Rotating Turtle muttered, comparing it to the ease of his previous master’s Tribulation, the Snake King looked rather bedraggled!

The Heavenly Dao is omnipresent. After the Snake King had absorbed the Sacred Blood, he suddenly advanced to a new stage. Without having time to suppress his Spiritual Power, he directly faced the Heavenly Tribulation.

"Two more strikes?" He Tiantian was stunned. You can’t play like this!

If there were two more, the Snake King would really turn into roasted snake skewers.

"What can I do to help the Snake King?" He Tiantian asked, worried. She didn’t dare to shout or disturb the Snake King’s Tribulation.

The Rotating Turtle shook its head: "There is nothing we can do to help; it must face it alone."

"Is it over once the three strikes of lightning are dodged, without hitting the body, and therefore without injury, he can pass the Heavenly Tribulation, right?" He Tiantian asked, thinking it was better to dodge than be so foolish.

"Dodging is possible; for the Snake King, dodging these three strikes isn’t difficult. But if he can dodge this time, it’s not certain he can dodge the next. He would be doomed all the same. At the same time, these lightning strikes are terrifying but also contain great power and abundant Spiritual Energy from heaven and earth. Only through refining the body with each strike can the body reach a certain strength. One could say he challenges the lightning for the sake of empowering himself, to prepare for future Tribulations." the Little Rotating Turtle patiently explained to He Tiantian why the Snake King did what he did.

He Tiantian had an epiphany; it wasn’t that the Snake King was dumb, but he had to do this!

At that moment, He Tiantian watched the Snake King breathe forcefully, absorbing nutrients, his body growing bigger than before.

Just then, another lightning bolt streaked across the sky with white light tinged with red, coming swiftly from far to near.

The Snake King absorbed energy forcefully, defending against the next wave of assault.

In the moment He Tiantian’s eyes tiredly blinked, the lightning struck the Snake King.

"Crack, crack..." Several continuous sounds, white and red lights splashing, surrounded the Snake King in a 360-degree assault with no dead angles!

He Tiantian didn’t dare to look, yet she worried about the Snake King.

"Snake King, come on, hang in there!" This was the Human Realm; she was the Snake King’s friend, his follower. Only she could give the Snake King encouragement in such a situation.

The Little Rotating Turtle, despite not having a high opinion of the Snake King, thought that although the Snake King frequently lost his temper, wanting to crush it into powder, he had always been all talk and no action.

The Snake King was lonely.

The Little Rotating Turtle was also solitary.

They had a common bond, He Tiantian, so they coexisted peacefully.

If the Snake King died, the Little Rotating Turtle wouldn’t be bullied anymore, but it would be lonelier.

So, the Little Rotating Turtle also joined He Tiantian in shouting, "Hang in there, hang in there..."

As a stone statue that had always lived at the bottom of the river and was later sealed, who knew what "hang in there" really meant!

When the second strike dissipated, the Snake King in the sky looked even more distressed, flesh laid open to the bone but alive, like before, still absorbing energy in the air, strengthening his flesh.

Even though the Snake King looked pitiable, He Tiantian could still feel that he had become more formidable than before.

Loss always comes with gain!

Losing the comfort of life, facing difficulties head-on, that’s how one secures the precious energy gifted by the world.

In a few breaths, the Snake King’s body had become longer and bigger.

But just as the Snake King greedily breathed in the energy of the world, another white lightning bolt streaked across the sky, this time accompanied by chilling green light.

This time it was faster, arriving in half the time between the first and second lightning bolts.

This lightning bolt was thicker and faster than before.

What to do now?

The last one, let’s hope the Snake King can safely pass the last lightning bolt!
