Chapter 1009
The Heavenly Thunder kept getting stronger, and Yi Tianyun withstood them all without any problem with his powerful physique! The 2nd level will be over soon, and Yi Tianyun now noticed that each level only lasted for about one hour. After each level was concluded, those who remained standing would get rewarded. Also, their injury would be healed, and their energy would be replenished.
Through the 2nd level, almost none of the participants failed as they proved their worth for passing the 1st Stage of War of Ascension.
The condition of passing the 2nd Stage of War of Ascension was withstanding the Divine Tribulation until the 5th level. If they were eliminated before that, they just proved to everyone that they were just a mediocre cultivator!
“The 3rd Level is here!” Elder Gou Huang shouted as the clouds in the sky converged once again. The thunder soon struck, and the cultivators were trying hard to make sure that they could withstand the thunder just fine. Still, the 3rd level’s thunder was bigger than the previous thunder!
The thunder hit Yi Tianyun directly, but Yi Tianyun still withstood the thunder with only his bare skin. The thunderstrikes were blinding, and no one could really see what Yi Tianyun was doing among the smoke and dust around him.
Nevertheless, the Heavenly Thunder didn’t stop there! It struck at Yi Tianyun’s spot repeatedly without ever dropping its power.
Loud screams could be heard from all directions as several cultivators could no longer withstand the Heavenly Thunder. However, there were no casualties! Those who failed to withstand the Heavenly Thunder did receive serious injuries, but they were immediately teleported to safety at the moment of failure.
The 3rd level was soon over, and hundreds of people were already gone from the arena, meaning they were already eliminated from the War of Ascension. Nevertheless, it was very rare to see someone withstanding the Heavenly Thunder with only his bare skin like Yi Tianyun.
“Does that brat have Heavenly Thunder Body?” Earth Monarch Yun Lei wondered as he focused his attention on Yi Tianyun all the time. But he couldn’t believe that Yi Tianyun withstands the Heavenly Thunder only with his body alone until now! Earth Monarch Yun Lei also withstood the Heavenly Thunder with his body as he had Heavenly Thunder Body, but he thought that he was the only one who had it here.
Nonetheless, Yi Tianyun was the center of attention. After all, Yi Tianyun got 1st place on the leaderboard. Many experts also thought that Yi Tianyun had Heavenly Thunder Body as he withstood all the Heavenly Thunder with his body like it was nothing.
All cultivators felt pressured as the clouds began to converge once again, meaning that the next level would begin soon enough! They didn’t know how strong the next Heavenly Thunder would be, which worried them as they didn’t want to be eliminated from the War of Ascension.
Furthermore, they knew if the Heavenly Thunder kept getting stronger, the clouds would eventually rain down Tribulation Fire at some point! No one wanted to deal with that, as it would be more devastating than the Heavenly Thunder!
“The 4th level starts here!” Elder Gou Huang was excited. A blinding flash of lightning blinded everyone, and thunder struck the cultivators in the arena! Many screams were overshadowed by the deafening sound of the thunder, and when the light disappeared, they all saw that their number had decreased once more.
The sky rumbled once again, a signal for everyone that another thunder would strike soon.
Their number had been depleted from thousands to less than five hundred, and it would continue to go down as the level increased. But they saw that Yi Tianyun could easily withstand the Heavenly Thunder and Earth Monarch Yun Lei also withstanding the Heavenly Thunder easily. This was the reason they assumed that Yi Tianyun also had Heavenly Thunder Body!
“That brat must have Heavenly Thunder Body, there is no doubt about it now!” Nine Domain Territory Lord sighed as he didn’t expect such genius would appear on Heavenly Edict Divine Territory of all places.
But, no one knew that Yi Tianyun actually didn’t have Heavenly Thunder Body! They just misunderstood Yi Tianyun as they didn’t expect someone without Heavenly Thunder Body to withstand the Heavenly Thunder only with their body.
After the end of the 4th level, they were given a break as they recovered their injury and energy. Now, the number of participants had dwindled that it was easier to observe people in the arena. Some God Domains even lost all of their participants and were forced to give up on their endeavors.
For example, Heavenly Edict Divine Territory only had three remaining cultivators left as Sima Kong and the rest of his group were eliminated on the 4th level. Yuan Tianyou was the only one among them that survived the Heavenly Thunder and could continue to the next level.
Fire Jade Divine Territory still had Yu Qingling as their participants, but their expression wasn’t the same as earlier. Now, they only had Yu Qingling left as no other participants from their side could withstand the Heavenly Thunder. They clearly couldn’t hide their embarrassment from being outclassed by Heavenly Edict Divine Territory.
If Yu Qingling was eliminated, Fire Jade Divine Territory would be reduced to a mere spectator of War of Ascension.
Heavenly Edict Territory Lord couldn’t help but laugh as he only wished to get within the top 100 on the leaderboard at first. He could never imagine that his cultivator would get 1st place among all others! Now, as the other God Domains had lost most of their cultivators, Heavenly Edict Divine Territory still had 3 cultivators!
Yi Tianyun, of course, didn’t care about such a thing. He just waited for the Heavenly Thunder to strike again as he wanted to continue gaining Exp.
“The 5th Level now begins!” Elder Gou Huang’s voice echoed, and the sky once again began to rumble, but this time, there was a slight tint of red among the flashes inside the Heavenly Tribulation Clouds themselves. This was a signal that the Divine Tribulation had merged with Tribulation Fire!
As long as the participant passed this level, they would pass the 2nd Stage of War of Ascension and could move to the next stage.
Many participants started to look up and felt the burning flames on their skin. Several cultivators even tried to kneel down to avoid the high temperature to no avail. Many elders and Territory Lords that watched the stage from above began to pray as they hoped that their cultivators could withstand the next thunderstrike.
They had long forgotten their desire for high ranking on the leaderboard as they knew that it was enough if their cultivators could survive this level!
