"Is this... a punishment from heaven?!"
Someone exclaimed.
Such terrifying thunder was pure destructive force, without any trace of vitality. It contained the vast power of the Great Dao, and wanted to wipe out Ling Xiao directly.
This is not an ordinary thunder tribulation at all, it is a punishment from heaven!
“Breaking the limit and advancing to the third level of stepping into the sky is impossible to attract a heavenly calamity in the ancient land of chaos. Why did Long Aotian’s advancement to the third level of stepping into the sky cause a heavenly punishment?”
Everyone's heart was filled with doubts.
“Heaven’s punishment? Hahaha… This is heaven’s punishment, Long Aotian. What on earth did you do to anger heaven and man that made heaven send down the power of heaven’s punishment? I think you don’t need to dream of becoming the chosen one. You are more like the abandoned one!”
The young master of Tian Yao was not surprised but happy, his eyes filled with joy and mockery.
Breaking the limit and advancing to the third level of stepping into the sky would actually bring about heavenly punishment. Although the young master of Tian Yao did not know the reason, he knew that Ling Xiao had no chance of becoming the chosen one.
The Chosen Son is chosen by Heaven, follows the Way of Heaven, is blessed by the Supreme Way of Heaven, and possesses supreme fortune. Therefore, no matter what, he can never be the one to cause Heaven's punishment.
From this point of view, Ling Xiao might really be a son abandoned by heaven.
"The Son of Heaven Forsaken? This Long Aotian is so tragic. I think he had extraordinary combat power and unparalleled talent. I'm afraid he had the strength to compete with the geniuses and evildoers in the world. But now it seems a pity. He is destined not to become the Son of Heaven Chosen!"
Someone said with a hint of gloating.
"What a shame for his talent!"
"What's so regretful? Let's wait until he survives the punishment from heaven first!"
"That's right! Under the punishment from heaven, there is no chance of survival, not to mention the three most powerful people who are eyeing us covetously!"
"… "
Everyone was talking about it, and the general public was not optimistic about Ling Xiao, with each of them having a different expression.
"God's punishment?"
There was a strange look in Feng Qingyang's eyes.
If it were before, he might still be worried about Ling Xiao's safety, but when he thought of Ling Xiao obtaining the secret art of heavenly punishment in the sea of thunder and lightning, he no longer had any worries.
The secret art of Heavenly Punishment contains the power of Heavenly Punishment and is the number one thunder magic in the heavens. Ling Xiao possesses the secret art of Heavenly Punishment, so it is not difficult for him to resolve the Heavenly Punishment before him.
"Um?"
Ling Xiao's brows furrowed slightly. He didn't understand why he would be punished by heaven for breaking his limit and entering the third level of heaven!
Just now, under the Nine Yang Blood Spirit Emperor Technique, Ling Xiao's flesh and blood were almost burned into fire, leaving only a skeleton. However, Ling Xiao also suddenly realized the source of power, directly broke his own limit, and advanced to the third realm of stepping into the sky.
That feeling was like jumping out of the constraints of the world and standing above the way of heaven, giving him an extremely strange perspective, as if he could observe the cycle of heaven and earth and comprehend the life and death of all beings. That feeling was very strange.
It’s a pity that state was too short, and Ling Xiao broke through almost instantly!
And now that the punishment from heaven has come, Ling Xiao is also somewhat puzzled and at a loss.
Boom!
Endless lightning rose up, and black evil spirit filled the air, completely locking Ling Xiao in place. Endless lightning gathered and descended from the sky, striking Ling Xiao straight down.
Ling Xiao could feel the destructive power contained in that bolt of thunder, which wanted to completely wipe out the vitality around him!
"I want to see how strong this so-called heavenly punishment is!"
A cold light flashed in Ling Xiao's eyes, revealing a strong fighting spirit. A blazing divine light rose around his body, and he punched up into the sky!
Snap!
The void shook violently. Ling Xiao collided with the black lightning and immediately felt a violent vibration all over his body. He was actually struck down by the lightning directly from the sky.
The sky was filled with lightning that came crashing down, not giving Ling Xiao any chance to react. It enveloped his entire body, interwoven with the aura of destruction. The laws of the avenue descended, wanting to completely wipe out all life.
Boom!
Ling Xiao could feel that those bolts of thunder were all transformed from the pure laws of the Tao. They were so powerful and terrifying that they made him feel tremendous pressure.
Ling Xiao punched like a dragon and fought hard. Each punch had the power to destroy the heaven and earth. He used the Fist of the Emperor of Heaven and burst out with ultimate combat power, shattering the destructive thunders one after another.
However, the lightning still penetrated into Ling Xiao's body, wreaking havoc inside him, destroying the vitality of his physical body, and spreading towards the depths of his soul.
Heavenly punishment is the power brought down by the wrath of Heaven. It is terrifying and the more you resist, the stronger it becomes. Even a true saint cannot resist the power of heavenly punishment.
Soon, Ling Xiao was enveloped by lightning.
“So what if you have advanced to the third level of Heaven? You will still die under Heaven’s punishment in the end! The name of the Son of Heaven’s Abandonment is really well-deserved!”
The Son of Samsara said with a look of mockery in his eyes.
"It's too easy for him to just let him die like this!"
The Nine Suns Demon Saint said in a cold voice, his eyes filled with cold murderous intent.
"Really? Then you guys should also taste the power of Heaven's Punishment!"
Suddenly, an indifferent voice was heard by the Young Master of Heavenly Demon, the Son of Samsara and the Nine Yang Demon Saint, causing them to tremble all over.
Boom!
Amidst the black thunder, Ling Xiao suddenly soared into the sky, bathed in the lightning, and rushed towards the three people!
There was blazing thunder all around him, as if there were black thunder dragons coiled around him. He possessed the power to destroy the world and could tear everything apart. He roared and rushed towards the three of them.
"What?!"
An aura that made their scalps tingle came rushing over, and the faces of the three Nine Yang Demon Saints changed drastically. Feeling the breath of heavenly punishment coming, they retreated quickly without thinking.
But Ling Xiao was even faster. He used the secret art of teleportation, and his whole body was wrapped in the sky full of lightning. He suppressed it with a bang, covering the three Nine Yang Demon Saints!
Snap!
The lightning flashes were terrifying, as if they had sensed the powerful aura of the three Nine Yang Demon Saints. The power of the heavenly punishment became more and more terrifying, almost destroying the entire world.
A black lightning bolt was the first to be hit, piercing through the chest of the Nine Yang Demon Saint, causing blood to surge there and his vitality to dissipate. The Nine Yang Demon Saint's whole body shook violently, coughing up blood, and flew out!
The vast might of heaven descended, and bolts of thunder intertwined. The extremely chaotic power shattered the powerful protective barriers around the Young Master of the Heavenly Demon and the Son of Samsara, and also blasted them to pieces, causing them to cough up blood.
"Damn it! How come he is not affected by the divine punishment?!"
The young master of Tian Yao roared, his eyes filled with shock and anger.
PS: The third update is over, everyone should go to bed early.
