Chapter 2271: Chapter 2291: Under the Thunderbolt, Wielding the Sword Towards the Sky!_1

Lin Chen’s aura skyrocketed wildly, like a demon god coming into the world. Radiating outward from his body as the center, it instantly enveloped thousands of miles around.

In the nearby mountains and forests, demonic beasts were shivering in terror, and countless birds and animals were frantically fleeing to distant places.

At the same time, the wildly surging aura from Lin Chen had attracted the attention of the Heavenly Dao. The clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and large swathes of tribulation clouds appeared in the sky, forming an immense thunderous cave.

The city oppressed by the dark clouds seemed on the verge of collapse, and within the thunderous cave, lightning flashed, and the sound was deafening, as if Thor had sounded the war drum.

Lin Chen floated in midair, holding the Star Cloud Sword in his hand, looking up at the sky, calm and fearless.

"Crack!"

Like the heavens crumbling, a thick purple thunderbolt struck down towards Lin Chen.

Good heavens, starting with such a thick purple thunderbolt, and this was only the first strike—what would follow?

Lin Chen, having crossed many tribulations, knew from experience that although his talent and aptitude were average, his tampering with himself had made Heaven pay more attention to him. Each thunder tribulation he faced was several times, even ten times more difficult than for cultivators of the same realm breaking through their realm.

With a flick of his sword, Lin Chen effortlessly shattered the thunderbolt.

"Crack!"

Heaven did not make Lin Chen wait long; the second thunderbolt descended swiftly.

Whether it was the brightness of the purple light or the thickness of the thunderbolt, both were much stronger than the first strike.

Lin Chen raised his sword, and once again shattered it with a single strike.

By now, Lin Chen had completely mastered the Heavenly Sword passed down by his Master, Su Shaoling. His combat power may not be much higher than Su Shaoling’s, but it definitely wouldn’t be lower.

The third thunderbolt fell.

Sword Qi surged all over Lin Chen’s body, and the surrounding area had become a world of Sword Qi.

Heavenly Sword Fifth Style, Sword Domain!

Numerous streams of Sword Qi whirled around, like schools of fish in the ocean, gathering above Lin Chen’s head.

The thunderbolt struck the endless Sword Qi, with swathes of Sword Qi shattering, and yet they charged forward like indomitable warriors, one after another, forming a vortex of Sword Qi that shielded Lin Chen below.

Lu Yao, standing atop a mountain peak in the distance, praised, "With the power of an Immortal, he has demonstrated a might almost comparable to the divine powers of the Sword Dao. This kid is quite impressive!"

Ziyun Zunzhe, having gone through her own Crossing Tribulation, asked with concern in a low voice, "Senior, he should be fine, right?"

Lu Yao laughed, "Hard to say. Just watch. The way he looks, I’m afraid the difficulty of the Heavenly Tribulation will increase significantly."

Ziyun Zunzhe fell silent for a few seconds, "Indeed, it’s much harder than when I went through my tribulation."

Lu Yao, with his hands clasped behind his back, looked serene, "A more difficult tribulation is a good thing. The greater the challenge, the more benefits he will reap in the end. Laying a good foundation is important for the entire Great Luo Realm. The firmer the foundation, the further one can go."

Ziyun Zunzhe looked at Lin Chen, who was wildly and dominantly floating in mid-air, her gaze drifting for a moment.

She remembered when she first met Lin Chen, he was only a beginner Earth Immortal. In such a short time, Lin Chen had actually caught up. Did that mean it wouldn’t take much longer for Lin Chen to leave her far behind?

When Lin Chen was below Daluo, she could still help him. Now that he had been promoted to Daluo, if he couldn’t deal with an enemy, she certainly couldn’t either. In other words, in the future, she would probably find it difficult to be of any help to Lin Chen.

Given time, would she become a burden to Lin Chen?

Ziyun Zunzhe slightly pursed her lips and took a deep breath, a hint of resolution flickering in her eyes.

In the sky, the fourth thunderbolt fell again.

This thunderbolt wasn’t massively impressive, but it contained an unusually suppressive Breath within it.

The wildly spinning vortex of Sword Qi was struck by this thunderbolt, and like a 100,000-volt electric line dropped into water, those swordfish-like Sword Qi instantaneously lost their vitality.

The vortex of Sword Qi began to break apart.

Lin Chen raised an eyebrow, his eyesight showing a hint of surprise, but he wasn’t afraid. With a sweep of the Star Cloud Sword, huge Sword Lights rose to the sky, easily smashing the depressive thunderbolt that had broken through the Sword Qi vortex.

Although he had successfully shattered the fourth thunderbolt, Lin Chen’s expression grew solemn.

Heaven was really ruthless!

This was only the fourth thunderbolt, and his signature technique, the Heavenly Sword Domain, couldn’t withstand it?

There were still five more formidable Heavenly Punishments to come!

The breath within the thunderbolt was all too familiar to Lin Chen; it was the breath of the Dao!

The thunderbolt was now containing the Breath of the Heavenly Dao, and Heaven seemed determined to shatter him into pieces.

"Crack!"

The fifth thunderbolt descended again, and the Breath of the Dao was even stronger, signifying yet another substantial increase in the attack’s potency.

Lin Chen repeated his technique, the vortex of Sword Qi rising once more. At the same time, he brought out the Liuli Qiankun Umbrella.

The thunderbolt struck the vortex of Sword Qi, easily breaking through it and shattering the Sword Qi vortex, before falling onto the Liuli Qiankun Umbrella!

The Liuli Qiankun Umbrella, capable of withstanding countless attacks, tensed instantly, and in the next second, numerous spokes snapped.

The lightning made its way down, instantly engulfing Lin Chen!
