Chapter 2257 Using Heavenly Tribulation to Scam a 5th-Tier Demon King
A human cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage easily killed two mid-stage fourth-tier demon kings and one late-stage fourth-tier demon king in a one-on-three situation, which has defied common sense.
"I'm not seeing things, am I? He killed three powerful demon kings!"
"This is a genius among geniuses!"
"How did he do that? This isn't a minor realm, it's a hunt that transcends major realms. Can our human race also achieve this level?"
"I'm starting to wonder if he's hiding his true level of cultivation."
Countless humans stared at Gu Qianyue in shock, and many demon kings also focused their gazes on her.
Even the fifth-tier demon king and the Nascent Soul stage human cultivator who were engaged in a fierce battle in the sky stopped and their gazes fell on Gu Qianyue.
"It's a fluctuation of laws, and more than one law at that!"
"As expected of an elite cultivator from the Qingyun Sect, they have mastered the laws at the Golden Core stage!"
"Once such a peerless genius advances to the Nascent Soul stage, his strength will be unimaginable."
The human cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage in the air was overjoyed, while the fifth-tier demon king opposite him looked extremely ugly.
"A Golden Core cultivator has actually mastered multiple laws of power. This has never happened before. Such a threat must be eliminated!"
"You hold off these Nascent Soul stage human cultivators while I eliminate him." A demon king with wings on his back suddenly transformed into a streak of light and charged towards Gu Qianyue.
"How dare you!" Upon seeing this, the three human Nascent Soul stage cultivators roared and tried to intercept them.
"Hmph, you want to go over there? Have you asked me first!" The remaining two demon kings immediately intercepted them. In order to buy that demon king enough time, the two demon kings unleashed their full power. Rolling demonic energy surged, and a storm-like attack rushed towards the three human Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
The three human Nascent Soul stage cultivators looked anxious, and were originally planning to use their trump cards. However, at this moment, Gu Qianyue's voice came through their earpieces.
"Don't worry, seniors, I have a way to handle this."
The three Nascent Soul stage cultivators were startled. While dealing with the fierce attacks of the two demon kings, they looked at Gu Qianyue. They saw that the fifth-tier demon king had already unleashed a terrifying claw attack on Gu Qianyue.
However, Gu Qianyue did not choose to escape. Instead, she condensed the Five Elements Sword Formation and the Eight Desolate Demon Blade Formation to form a defense and protect herself inside.
At the same time, the five elemental rings merged into one, transforming into a five-colored ring that protected his body inside.
The defensive power of his armor was also activated, and even the defensive talismans were engaged.
The terrifying demonic claw seemed to tear the void apart. Soon, the five-colored ring around Gu Qianyue was torn apart by the demonic claw, and then the two defensive sword formations were also broken open. The terrifying power made the space around Gu Qianyue seem to be distorted.
Countless human cultivators watched with worry as Gu Qianyue lay beneath the demon's claws, their fists clenched in tension.
Upon seeing this, the demon kings revealed excited expressions. If they could eliminate a human genius, that would be a good thing.
Gu Qianyue also felt immense pressure at this moment. Although he had done his best to defend and used all his defensive means, the attack of the fifth-order demon king was beyond his expectations. Even with the power of the law, he was unable to block the attack of the fifth-order demon king.
However, Gu Qianyue's purpose was not to block the opponent's attack at all, but to lure this fifth-tier demon king to her vicinity.
Suddenly, a glint flashed in Gu Qianyue's eyes, and his aura erupted like a volcanic eruption. The power within him transformed into five-colored true energy that soared into the sky.
The next moment, dark clouds gathered from the heavens, and a terrifying divine might instantly enveloped the entire battlefield.
At this moment, both humans and demons on the battlefield looked up at the sky, even the demons with red eyes looked up at the sky.
"This is……"
"Heavenly disaster!"
"Damn it, you did this on purpose!" the mid-stage fifth-tier demon king roared.
"Let's overcome this tribulation together!"
Gu Qianyue pushed her power to its limit, and lightning tribulation rapidly condensed in the heavens above. Then, a thick bolt of silver lightning descended from the heavens.
This silver lightning bolt, over three zhang in diameter, completely locked onto Gu Qianyue. The terrifying pressure made Gu Qianyue feel as if a mountain was pressing down on her.
Meanwhile, high above, besides Gu Qianyue, a terrifying bolt of lightning also appeared above the head of that fifth-tier demon king. His lightning was tinged with golden light, and the destructive aura it emitted was even more terrifying.
Moreover, the demons charging from the adjacent battlefield had also been caught up in the heavenly tribulation, attracting rolling thunderbolts as well.
In an instant, a shocking scene of countless bolts of lightning appeared around Gu Qianyue, as if a hole had been torn in the sky, and countless silver lightning bolts descended from the sky, covering an area of hundreds of miles in radius.
A violent thunderbolt descended with destructive power, and a blinding silver light illuminated the entire sky. The demons below looked up at the sky, and the silver light illuminated their despairing faces.
"Everyone retreat immediately!" The battlefield commander on the city wall hurriedly issued the retreat order.
Although Gu Qianyue had largely controlled the distance, preventing the heavenly tribulation from affecting the human cultivators, the commander still felt somewhat uneasy and quickly ordered a retreat.
The humans, who were engaged in fierce battle with the demon race, heard the order and quickly retreated towards Nanyang City. The surrounding cultivators helped each other and soon broke free from the demon race's entanglement, retreating to the vicinity of Nanyang City.
Some of these cultivators stood on the city wall, while others stood in the void; without exception, they all looked towards Gu Qianyue in the distance.
At this moment, Gu Qianyue had already been struck by the first silver lightning bolt. The violent silver lightning completely engulfed his figure, and the destructive power of the lightning tore at his body.
However, while bathed in this lightning, Gu Qianyue was fully engaged in cultivating the Heavenly Thunder Tempering Technique, frantically absorbing the power of the lightning.
The demon king's attack was deflected by the power of the heavenly tribulation, and the mid-stage fifth-tier demon king was resisting the first bolt of heavenly tribulation lightning.
The surrounding demons caught in the heavenly tribulation were subjected to the baptism of heavenly lightning. In just a short while, a large number of the surrounding demons were annihilated by the terrifying heavenly tribulation.
A vast curtain of lightning enveloped the area, making it look as if the end of the world had arrived.
When the first lightning tribulation ended, only Gu Qianyue and the mid-stage fifth-order demon king remained in this area. Dark clouds rolled in the sky, and a huge vortex condensed, with endless lightning converging towards it.
"Damn human, I will kill you!" The demon king roared and charged at Gu Qianyue, but Gu Qianyue was very decisive and directly activated one of the life-saving features of his armor.
In an instant, his speed increased tenfold. With the aid of the high-level Gale Talisman and movement technique, Gu Qianyue's speed reached an astonishing level. Even this fifth-level demon king could not catch Gu Qianyue.
As long as Gu Qianyue cannot be killed, his tribulation will not end.
