Dragon King's Son-In-Law Chapter 194 The Power of Heavenly Tribulation

Surrounded by the dark sea, Hao Ren didn’t know where this altar was in the vast ocean.

But he guessed this location was selected beforehand by the East Ocean Dragon Palace and had been kept as a top secret to prevent their enemies from attacking them at this vital moment.

In the sky, the thunder sounded, and the lightning rolled in the dark clouds that were now very close to the surface of the sea. The occasional flashes turned the sea surface silver white.

There was no trace of land in sight, and the frightening scene would have scared an average person.

A platform slowly rose from the altar, and Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu stood it. Today, the Dragon King Zhao Guang would personally command the Heavenly Tribulation Array Formation.

Instantly, the wind picked up, and the sea waves surged up high.

Zhao Yanzi staggered slightly, and she immediately clutched onto Hao Ren’s arm. Afraid that she would fall into the sea from the edge of the altar, Hao Ren firmly held her hand.

Her palm was warm, but her fingertips were cold.

Boom!

A lightning bolt arced across the sky.

Even Hao Ren who had never experienced such event knew that the Heavenly Tribulation was coming.

Zhao Yanzi was nervous. Her grip on Hao Ren’s hand tightened.

The lightning bolts traveled in the clouds, and the atmosphere on the huge altar, where more than 10,000 Dragon Cultivators gathered, was getting grimmer.

Bang!

The first lightning bolt crashed down from the clouds.

It was as thick as an arm and looked like a purple jade!

“Ninth Heaven Eighteen Lightning Tribulation!” Premier Xia who was standing beside Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi murmured.

“Is it very powerful?” Zhao Yanzi asked him anxiously.

“Extremely powerful, more powerful than the Wind Fire Lightning Tribulation we expected,” Premier Xia furrowed his brows and said.

“Can Third Uncle withstand it?” Zhao Yanzi asked again immediately.

Premier Xia turned his attention to the center of the altar and didn’t answer. He acted as if he did not hear Zhao Yanzi’s question.

The purple lightning bolt crashed down from the sky and landed on the top of Zhao Kuo’s head.

Zhao Kuo remained in the same place and didn’t move a muscle. With a grunt, he withstood the first round of Heavenly Tribulation with his body!

Since he had reached top-tier Qian-level, his body was almost unbreakable!

The moment the first Heavenly Lightning Bolt crashed, the rain poured down from the dark clouds in the sky.

The huge white jade altar released a pale blue light shield, blocking the rainwater.

Hao Ren made the calculations silently. “If each lightning bolt is going to be twice as powerful as the last one, then the last lightning bolt would be almost 100,000 times more powerful than the first one!”

“100,000 times! It is terrifying just to think about it.”

Zhao Yanzi’s math was not as good as Hao Ren’s, but she was worried when she heard that each of the 18 lightning bolts was stronger than the one before it. She bit her lower lip, and her breathing became uneven.

While they were talking, the second Heaven Lightning Bolt crashed down!

It was twice as loud as the first one, and it was thicker and brighter!

Zhao Kuo still sat there motionlessly, letting the lightning bolt crash into his body. His body lit up for a few seconds before returning to normal.

“Elder Zhao is indeed the No. 1 Cultivator in the Mortal World. He didn’t resist the Heavenly Tribulation. On the contrary, he absorbed the power of the Heavenly Tribulation and saved it to withstand the later lightning bolts,” Premier Xia said in a low voice.

Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi held each other’s hand tightly while their eyes were locked on Zhao Kuo who was in the center of the altar. It was their first time witnessing a Heavenly Tribulation, and it was very important to East Ocean!

Boom!

The third Heavenly Lightning Bolt came with the booming sound!

It lit up half the sky.

Hao Ren had toyed with the idea of helping Zhao Yanzi’s Third Uncle absorb the power of lightning bolts with his technique. Now seeing the great power of the Heavenly Lightning bolts, he knew how naive his idea had been!

They were not only Heavenly Lightning bolt; they represented the power of the Heaven!

Cultivation itself was against the natural law. It was ok if the cultivators just wanted to chill in the mortal world. But if they wanted to challenge the natural law and gain the same privileges and powers of the Heaven and the Earth such as immortality, they must pass the tests of the Heavenly Tribulation!

Still sitting, Zhao Kuo quietly waited for the third Heavenly Lightning Bolt to crash into him.

But this time, his body shook slightly.

Premier Xia’s frown got tighter. “18 Heavenly Lightning Bolts, not easy…” he thought.

Boom!

The sound of the fourth Heavenly Lightning Bolt shook the sky. As thick as a pillar, it crashed down from the clouds.

This time, Zhao Kuo finally opened his eyes!

The Heavenly Lightning Bolt crashed into the Baihui Acupoint in the top of his head and traveled through his spine before going into the altar!

The remaining power of the Heavenly Lightning Bolt lit up the engravings and arrays on the altar for a second.

Zhao Kuo stretched his arms and raised his head as he shouted, “Hahaha! Awesome! Again!”

As if it was an answer to Zhao Kuo’s challenge, the Heaven didn’t give him any break when the fifth Heavenly Lightning Bolt crashed down!

Zhao Kuo still withstood it with his body.

The lightning bolt crashed into his body, and his cyan robe remained intact. However, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a dash of light shot out into the distance.

Bang!

A wave as high as dozens of meters surged up in the distance when the light struck the surface of the ocean.

“Excellent! Again!” Zhao Kuo yelled, his arrogance returned.

As thick as a skyscraper, the sixth Heavenly Lightning Bolt crashed from the sky toward him!

The bright lightning engulfed Zhao Kuo in it!

From a distance, Zhao Yanzi’s breath quickened while she stared at the center of the altar. She clutched onto Hao Ren’s palm tightly, and her fingertips began to sweat.

When the lightning disappeared, Zhao Kuo, who was sitting in the center of the altar, was still intact!

“He is indeed the No.1 Cultivator!” Hao Ren couldn’t help admiring him!

If it had been the simplest Four-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, Zhao Kuo would have passed it already. However, Zhao Kuo was ambitious! Even if he could get into Heaven, he didn’t want to be in the lowest rank!

The most powerful Ninth Heaven Eighteen Lightning Tribulation was the ultimate test for him.

Faced with such a Heavenly Tribulation, even an immortal would be killed if he or she was not careful.

Clang! Zhao Kuo reached out and picked up the black tri-point double-edge sword. Standing up, he looked up at the sky and shouted, “Again! Again!”

The seventh Heavenly Lightning Bolt transformed into seven flashes, crashing toward him from seven directions!

Zhao Kuo waved his weapon, Killing Tribulation. With a black flash, he shattered all seven Heaven Lightning bolts!

He was so proud that he was determined to fight with the Heavenly Tribulation!

Standing in the wind in his fluttering robe while some lightning flashed on his long-handled black tri-point double-edge sword, Zhao Yanzi’s Third Uncle looked like a god who descended into the mortal world.

The eighth Heavenly Lightning Bolt struck down quickly from the clouds. It transformed into thousands of lightning balls, attacking Zhao Kuo from all directions!

Hao Ren calculated silently and knew that the eighth Heavenly Lightning Bolt was 128 times as powerful as the first one!

Each of the lightning balls looked weak, but in fact, they held the same power as the first Heavenly Lightning Bolt. Zhao Kuo looked at ease, but it was really a challenge for him.

Standing in the center of the altar, he waved the 6,500-pound black tri-point double-edge sword so fast that it turned into an impenetrable light shield. The lightning balls crashed onto the ‘Killing Tribulation’ with loud muffled banging noises, deafening Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi.

Despite the situation, Zhao Yanzi didn’t cover her ears. She watched the situation on the altar more anxiously.

Tens of thousands of soldiers stood on the edge of the altar. They dared not to move without orders. Therefore, the altar that was as big as several soccer fields was a one-man stage for Zhao Kuo.

The ninth Heavenly Lightning Bolt shot down! It split into nine parts and whistled toward him with the power of wind and fire on top of lightning.

They were extremely sharp as if they could pierce everything in the world!

The hundun lightning could break everything comprised of the five elements. Although Zhao Kuo was top-tier Qian-level with a powerful weapon, he didn’t dare to be careless with it.

With the 6,500-pound weapon, Zhao Kuo was still agile. He broke eight of the nine lightning bolts one by one.

Whoosh!

The last lightning bolt as wide as a river was cleaved into two parts by Zhao Kuo’s the 6,500-pound black tri-point double-edge sword.

Tri-point double-edge sword was the legendary weapon of the ancient Water God. Zhao Kuo’s moves were so powerful that they even broke the Heaven Lightning Bolts!

Seeing the excitement in the people around him, Hao Ren was about to cheer when Zhao Kuo supported himself with the black tri-point double-edge sword and raised his left hand to hold his chest, spitting out a mouthful of blood!

“Third Uncle!” Zhao Yanzi yelled anxiously.

At this moment, a light flashed in the clouds, and the tenth Heavenly Lightning Bolt was ready to strike!

“The tenth Heavenly Lightning Bolt is 512 times as powerful as the first one!” Hao Ren calculated.

Including this one, there were still nine Heavenly Lightning Bolts left. However, it seemed like Zhao Kuo couldn’t pass them. Hao Ren clenched his fists and began to worry for Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Kuo was fierce and rude, but he was not a bad guy. To the contrary, he was straight-forward and manly!

Boom! The tenth Heavenly Lightning Bolt, 512 times as powerful as the first one, crashed down!

Zhao Kuo forced himself to lift the tri-point double-edge sword and got ready for the battle!

Once the Heavenly Tribulation was activated, it couldn’t be stopped. Just like cultivation, the cultivators wouldn’t back out once they start despite all the difficulties ahead of them.

Clang! Zhao Kuo’s tri-point double-edge sword knocked the ground of the altar and made a huge noise.

With blood on his lips, he looked calmly at the sky.

The Heavenly Lightning Bolt with its ultimate power crashed onto Zhao Kuo’s head in the form of a pure white light beam!

Waving his tri-point double-edge sword, Zhao Kuo faced it squarely! No one could back off from the Heavenly Tribulation!

Standing straight with his head held high, Zhao Kuo was instantly swallowed by the flash of lightning.

Zhao Yanzi clutched Hao Ren’s hand tight, and her fingernails cutting into his palm. Also, deep dents were forming on her lower lip as she bit on it forcefully.

When the flash disappeared, Zhao Kuo kneeled in the center of the altar on one knee. His tri-point double-edge sword was shattered into pieces, and his arms were bloody!

In the sky, the eleventh Heavenly Lightning Bolt was ready to strike!

Knowing that Zhao Kuo couldn’t make it, Zhao Guang shouted, “Heaven and Earth Array Formation, activate!”

His resonant order spread to the edge of the altar.

“Yes!” The tens of thousands of soldiers who were waiting around the altar answered loudly.

“Sneaky Heaven! Broken Heaven! I will get you!” At this moment, Zhao Kuo flew up abruptly in his torn robe!
