Chapter 414: Heavenly Tribulation After Heavenly Tribulation
"Mmm, this feels amazing."
As the golden light covering his body slowly receded, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm finally opened his eyes. His face was filled with utter comfort as he said, "The feeling of every breakthrough is so satisfying. It's simply addictive."
"Great? Satisfying?"
Yu Tianlin glanced sideways at the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.
"Don't worry. Something even greater and more satisfying is coming soon."
Only then did the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm remember that before this hibernation, he had fallen under Yu Tianlin's control. However, now that his cultivation had broken through and his strength had risen significantly, his confidence had also grown a little. His small eyes carried an inexplicable light as he sized up Yu Tianlin, seemingly plotting something.
Yu Tianlin saw through the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's little scheme at a glance.
To dispel those unrealistic thoughts, he did not speak. He directly Dragonized his right hand, then violently clawed forward.
Following Yu Tianlin's movement, five pitch-black fissures suddenly appeared in front of his sharp Dragon Claw. With that single grab, he had actually torn open space itself.
Speaking of which, although the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm now possessed 900,000 years of cultivation, his actual combat power was only comparable to an ordinary ninety thousand year Spirit Beast. Converted into human strength, it was roughly equivalent to Dugu Bo before he resolved his own poisoning issue.
This level of strength was nothing to the current Yu Tianlin. If he wanted to, he could easily defeat him.
After witnessing Yu Tianlin's terrifying power, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm shivered all over. Then, he immediately put on a flattering smile and said, "Big Brother's Divine Might is truly impressive. It seems Big Brother became even stronger while I was sleeping."
Yu Tianlin did not respond to the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's flattery. He had already sensed something and immediately said, "Prepare yourself. Your Heavenly Tribulation is about to arrive."
Hearing this, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's expression froze.
After waking up, he had vaguely felt a huge sense of threat. He had originally thought this feeling came from Yu Tianlin, but now that Yu Tianlin had spoken, it seemed to be his Spirit Beast Heavenly Tribulation?
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm found this reality difficult to accept and could not help but let out a dry laugh.
"Big Brother, are you joking? I ate my way to eight hundred thousand years of cultivation without any Heavenly Tribulation descending. Now that I've broken through to 900,000 years, it should be the same. There shouldn't be..."
Seeing that the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was still clinging to his illusions, Yu Tianlin did not wait for him to finish speaking. He directly dragged him out of the ice cave.
Looking at the dark clouds constantly gathering in the sky, even if the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm did not want to believe it, he had no choice but to accept reality.
"I ate so much ten thousand year cold marrow before without any trouble, so why did the last piece attract a Heavenly Tribulation?"
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm looked utterly dumbfounded.
"It's over. Everything is completely over now..."
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm knew that with his current strength, it was impossible for him to survive the tribulation. He would definitely die beneath the Heavenly Tribulation.
Just as the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm fell into despair, Yu Tianlin frowned while looking at the clouds high in the sky.
The scale isn't right. It's clearly inferior to the Heavenly Tribulation the Azure Dragon summoned when it broke through to three hundred thousand years. Strictly speaking, the Heavenly Tribulation the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm has attracted is only equivalent to the Heavenly Tribulation an ordinary hundred thousand year Spirit Beast faces when breaking through to the Vicious Beast stage.
He was clearly already a 900,000 year Spirit Beast, yet the Heavenly Tribulation he had attracted was only the lowest level.
Although Yu Tianlin was somewhat dissatisfied with this, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
Honestly, if the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had truly attracted a 900,000 year Heavenly Tribulation, Yu Tianlin would not have dared to intercept it. He was afraid that he, a Thunder God Successor, might actually be struck dead by the lightning. That would be a massive joke.
But if a 900,000 year Heavenly Tribulation was not coming, then this ordinary Heavenly Tribulation was too weak.
He had waited half a year just for this?
Although he was dissatisfied with the scale of the Heavenly Tribulation, he had still waited half a year for it, so naturally, he could not let it go. After all, this Heavenly Tribulation was still useful to him.
Just as Yu Tianlin was thinking this, a silver bolt of lightning suddenly struck down from high above, hitting the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm squarely.
Unlike the Azure Dragon, who had looked completely at ease while undergoing tribulation, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm immediately began twitching uncontrollably after being struck by lightning, squealing without pause.
"Pain! Pain! It hurts me to death!"
"Big Brother, help me!"
Amidst his convulsions, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm saw Yu Tianlin nearby and immediately treated him like a life-saving straw, frantically lunging toward him.
Yu Tianlin did not push the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm away. After all, his original goal was the Heavenly Tribulation. He directly stood in the air above the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and intercepted the lightning.
Back then, Yu Tianlin had barely reached level 80, yet he had still been able to withstand the Azure Dragon's Heavenly Tribulation. Now, he was facing the comparatively weaker Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's Heavenly Tribulation, and his own strength had also improved significantly. Naturally, there was even less of a problem.
Therefore, Yu Tianlin endured it with ease.
"Big Brother, you are truly kind."
Looking up at Yu Tianlin, who was helping him block the Heavenly Tribulation, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's eyes became teary, clearly moved.
What a good person. Truly a good person! He was actually helping him resist the Heavenly Tribulation. It seemed he had misunderstood this Big Brother before.
Yu Tianlin was unaware of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's thoughts. His attention was completely focused on the Heavenly Tribulation, right up until the final burst of energy.
Although this final burst was fierce, it clearly could not trouble Yu Tianlin. He easily endured it, then quickly sensed the changes in his first spirit ring.
Just as Yu Tianlin had expected, due to the reduced power of the Heavenly Tribulation, the enhancement to his first spirit ring this time was inferior to the last. It had only increased by about fifty thousand years, reaching five hundred fifty thousand years. It still displayed five golden lines, without adding another.
However, just as Yu Tianlin was feeling somewhat dissatisfied with this enhancement, he suddenly discovered that the dark clouds high in the sky had not dissipated because the Heavenly Tribulation had ended. Instead, even more clouds were gathering.
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, who had thought the Heavenly Tribulation was over, was also stunned.
The vague sense of threat he felt had not only failed to disappear, but had grown even stronger.
What was going on?
There was more?
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was dumbfounded, but Yu Tianlin's interest was piqued.
Interesting. Judging by this momentum, it seems another Heavenly Tribulation is coming?
Under Yu Tianlin's gaze, the dark clouds high in the sky gradually thickened. In the end, their scale became exactly comparable to the Azure Dragon's Heavenly Tribulation back then.
Sure enough, this was the Spirit Beast's second Heavenly Tribulation, the Heavenly Tribulation that descended when a Spirit Beast broke through from two hundred thousand years to three hundred thousand years.
Although Yu Tianlin did not know the specific reason, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had clearly continued to attract another Heavenly Tribulation.
From this perspective, he was indeed qualified to be used as a tool to attract lightning.
Just as Yu Tianlin was thinking this, the clouds high in the sky finally finished gathering their power, and the familiar silver-white lightning appeared once again.
However, in Yu Tianlin's eyes, these were not lightning bolts.
They were a massive wave of spirit ring years.
