Bang!
Lady Zhen’s right hand moved slightly, sending Duan Yao flying toward Hao Ren.
Hao Ren caught her immediately, but Duan Yao struggled out from his arms and looked up at Lady Zhen worriedly.
“Go!”
Turning the ancient lamp toward the bottom of the ocean, Lady Zhen condensed tens of millions of demonic souls into a stream of energy with the several eternal demon kings as the main souls and many big and small demon kings as supports!
Instantly, the great power shook the world!
Even without the souls of the big and small demon kings, the demonic souls of the eternal demon kings were powerful enough.
For example, a sharp sword containing the soul of Taotie, the ancient fierce beast, was unrivaled!
Besides, Lady Zhen condensed these demonic souls into the ancient godly lamp!
Many demonic souls were released from the godly lamp into the secret chamber at the bottom of the ocean!
They were like a magnificent and endless waterfall with flashing lights!
Almost instantly, the sky changed colors while the dark clouds turned into bloody lights!
While the fire spread on the ocean, the blood-colored lights spurted in the sky!
It was the 10,000-Year Lightning Tribulation, the Ultimate Lightning Tribulation!
Many fierce beasts had existed since the prehistorical days. Despite their countless killings, even the Heaven Dao didn’t have the right to take their lives; it could only trap them in the Demon Sea.
However, Lady Zhen had killed them all, which was a mortal violation of the laws of nature!
The so-called 10,000-Year Lightning Tribulation literally meant that it would last at least 10,000 years! It was so powerful that no one could escape from it!
Lady Zhen had angered the Heavenly Dao by taking tens of millions of demonic souls, but she didn’t care that she would be permanently pressed into the bottomless abyss by the heavenly lightning bolts as long as she could bring her husband back to life!
Seeing the heavenly lightning bolts surging in the sky, Duan Yao’s breath quickened as she got emotional.
This was true love in her mind. One could give up everything including their own lives for this! For this love, Lady Zhen was willing to be punished for tens of thousands of years!
Duan Yao’s eyes lit up while she sensed the magnificence of love; this was the feeling that she had admired and pursued! Lady Zhen was her idol!
Bang! 10,000 lightning bolts shot down together!
The bright colored robe flew from Lady Zhen’s body.
The robe suddenly turned into a piece of boundless silk cloth which covered the entire sky above the Demon Sea!
When heavenly lightning bolts struck onto the colorful silk cloth, they couldn’t pierce it and could only make some small dents!
Lady Zhen had such a great cultivation strength that she could even block the heavenly lightning bolts that engulfed the entire Demon Sea! Her power was probably on par than Zhen Yuan Zi’s!
Kicking her feet lightly, she waved her hands while the colorful silk cloth that was covering the sky turned around her.
The dense heavenly lightning bolts crashed onto the colorful silk but couldn’t break her defense!
By blocking the heavenly lightning bolts, she was buying time for her husband to return to life!
Crack! The ancient lamp suddenly shattered.
At a light movement of Lady Zhen’s finger, the Nuwa Stone with flashing colorful lights flew toward Su Han.
Since she had borrowed the Nuwa Stone from Su Han, she wouldn’t go back on her words! After all, she had planned it and made Su Han venture into the Nine Dragon Palace, and the purple gold hairpin was originally for Su Han as well.
Since Su Han helped her, she would return the favor!
Su Han raised her hands and tried to catch the Nuwa Stone with both hands, but she found that it was burning hot like a meteor. However, it was too late to find another way to catch it.
Hiss! The Nvwa Stone opened Su Han’s flesh and entered her body!
While feeling acute pain in her heart, Su Han realized that her mystic crystal was broken, and the Nuwa Stone had taken its place!
Puff!… The Kunlun Godly Lamp vanished in a wave of green light, leaving a green lotus flower in the sky.
Suddenly, a blinding green light shot out of the secret chamber in the deep ocean.
At the price of tens of millions of demonic souls, Lady Zhen had brought her husband back to life.
Bang!
A five-colored godly lightning bolt shattered Lady Zhen’s colorful robe.
With a crisp cry, Lady Zhen flew into the sky and finally revealed her original form – Phoenix!
Under the background of the sea of fire, the golden Phoenix looked more radiant than the five-colored lightning bolt!
Her golden feathers stood up and blocked the heavenly lightning bolts, and the lightning energy was shaken down into the sea.
Looking at the Phoenix that Lady Zhen had turned into, Hao Ren was astonished to see that she was one of the holy beasts!
With her prestigious status, she had been living in the Demon Sea as a demon king! None of those ancient fierce beasts deserved to battle with her!
She had killed all the big demon kings with one attack! It showed Lady Zhen’s great power!
Boom!
Endless lightning bolts that were as thick as mountains struck toward Lady Zhen.
The heavenly lightning bolts were sent by the Heavenly Dao, and Lady Zhen couldn’t overturn them all by herself!
Lady Zhen’s golden feathers looked brighter as the heavenly lightning bolts struck her. With her unkillable form, she would have to withstand the lightning strikes for tens of thousands of years!
From now on, the Demon Sea would become a sea of lightning, and Lady Zhen would have to bear all the strikes of the heavenly lightning bolts!
Although the heavenly lightning bolts couldn’t kill her, she wouldn’t be able to escape from them either. The Heavenly Dao wanted to make her regret her act after tens of thousands of years of torture before sending her into the abyss so that she would be struck by the heavenly lightning bolts for an eternity!
Su Han clenched her fingers with Hao Ren’s, suddenly feeling tiny and weak.
Lady Zhen had shot the Nuwa Stone into Su Han’s body in the last moment as a return of favor to Su Han. She had taken Hao Ren and Su Han into the Pity Flower Palace instead of letting them return immediately because she had known that the big demon kings were waiting outside, which was why she killed those demon kings.
Lady Zhen had sounded casual, but she had been prepared to be struck by heavenly lightning bolts for tens of thousands of years!
This punishment was worse than death!
Bang!
Suddenly, a violent green light beam that had a diameter of tens of thousands of meters shot out from the sea.
It instantly blocked the heavenly lightning bolts that were crashing toward Lady Zhen!
Kirin!
A green Demon Kirin whose body covered half of the sky!
He was Lady Zhen’s husband, the real ruler of the demon kingdom that Lady Zhen governed!
Releasing proud light, the green scales on the Kirin’s body knocked back the heavenly lightning bolts one by one!
The endless heavenly lightning bolts receded a bit before gathering again.
The remote celestial mountains on the ocean surface sensed that the situation had gotten out of control, and they sank into the ocean one by one with white array formations around them.
The situation had gone beyond the imagination of these remote independent cultivators. They knew that it was no longer a battle among demon kings; they were afraid that the Heavenly Dao might destroy the entire Demon Sea!
Watching the Kirin and the Phoenix blocking the heavenly lightning bolts for each other, Hao Ren got emotional and was about to fly up and try to help, but he was pulled back by Su Han.
Even Su Han wasn’t sure if she could block one heavenly lightning bolt, let alone Hao Ren!
The sky soon turned into a dark-red color, seeming to reveal the fury of the Heavenly Dao.
Guang! When the heavenly lightning bolts were destroying the entire Demon Sea, the magnificent Nine Dragon Palace suddenly dropped from above and appeared in the blood-colored sky above the Demon Sea!
