Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 1995 - 1466: Consideration_2 Advertisement

Luckily, she had set up the formation encircling her right from the outset, enabling her to trigger it instantly whenever necessary.

If not, confronting this strike of heavenly tribulation lightning, she might not perish outright, but grave wounds would surely follow!

Unlike the earlier setup, this array focused solely on defense now. Though it lost all attacking ability, its protective strength surged dramatically.

As the tribulation thunder slammed down, not even a tiny disturbance appeared; it got absorbed cleanly and without effort.

Once Jiang Fengwu completed the array's setup, confidence filled her completely, so she ignored the surroundings entirely. Closing her eyes, she took a restorative pill and sped up her mana replenishment.

The family members observing from a distance couldn't hold back their admiration for the array's sturdy barrier. After all, this wasn't one of the milder earlier strikes, but the sixth one, much fiercer than before, blocked with such ease.

Moreover, the seventh bolt of heavenly lightning was also endured successfully. Yet the formation showed signs of wear—its glow faded a bit, and subtle fissures started forming.

The eighth heavenly strike was bound to overwhelm it completely now.

Even so, this array proved incredibly tough, managing to repel two full bolts plus half of another from the tribulation lightning.

Guided by Jiang Fengwu, the overtaxed formation directly countered the eighth bolt of tribulation thunder.

"Just the final bolt of tribulation thunder left!"

The clansmen caught their breaths, staring intently at Jiang Fengwu beneath the thunderclouds, their voices dropping low instinctively to avoid any disturbance that might lead to disaster.

At the same time, awe surged through many clansmen uncontrollably. Some had seen multiple clan ancestors face their tribulations before, yet none had reached the last bolt looking so pristine and undisturbed—she stood alone in that regard!

"Do Array Masters possess such immense power?"

This idea sparked in numerous minds at once, and a handful even felt motivated to dive into the Dao of Arrays.

However, within the Hundred Arts of Cultivation, formations ranked among the toughest to grasp, demanding strong innate gifts above all. Even starting with solid cultivation foundations, achieving real mastery seemed out of reach for most.

If Li Zhirui learned of their ideas, he would probably advise against squandering time and energy on such a futile pursuit.

Yet even he felt a twinge of jealousy deep down, since no one enjoys appearing disheveled—who wouldn't want to conquer their thunder tribulation in splendid form?

Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—

A fierce gust suddenly swept across the skies and earth, howling like a ferocious beast through the atmosphere, stirring unrest in every observer's soul.

The fierce winds tossed the tribulation clouds like massive ocean swells, while drawing in extra spiritual energy from distant places, making the clouds denser and boosting the impending tribulation thunder's power slightly more!

Seeing this, Li Zhirui's forehead creased deeply, his expression turning grave.

He knew without doubt that the earlier wind wasn't some random event, but a abrupt shift from the Heavenly Dao, designed to intensify the thunder tribulation and prevent Jiang Fengwu from smoothly ascending to Heavenly Immortal.

"Damn it!"

Even he muttered a curse quietly at that moment.

"Jiu, what caused this?"

As the Wind God, Xiaoqing easily spotted the strangeness in that sudden gale.

"Ancestor Rui, can Elder Ancestor Jiang safely survive the thunder tribulation?" Li Xiuyuan finally voiced his worry; he absolutely didn't wish to witness a Heavenly Immortal's demise right there.

"We'll have to see what Fengwu can achieve!"

Li Zhirui avoided a straight reply, simply urging them to await the result. He trusted her abilities deeply, but this twist had eroded his earlier absolute certainty by a third.

Hoo!

Facing the thunder tribulation head-on, even Jiang Fengwu's breaths quickened unevenly from the surprise development.

Still, the current crisis allowed no space for doubt or delay in her mind!

She quickly ingested multiple pills; even the mildest restoratives turned volatile under the intense strain, taxing her meridians heavily.

But Jiang Fengwu couldn't afford to pause—nothing outweighed the priority of enduring this thunder tribulation and emerging alive.

As the ultimate bolt of tribulation thunder burst from the dense clouds into view, everyone felt their breathing halt for an instant!

A colossal thunder dragon materialized gradually, its features savage, its form enormous, barreling directly at Jiang Fengwu with horrifying, unstoppable force.

Buzz—

Jiang Fengwu held back no words; she concentrated solely on the tribulation, pouring out all her mana in a flash to conjure an array glowing with profound yellow spiritual radiance.

From afar, it resembled a giant black turtle sprawled on the ground, relying on its unmatched toughness to defy the tribulation thunder.

Roar!

The thunder dragon lifted its head with a roar, parting its crimson jaws to unleash a torrent of lightning that smashed down fiercely on the black turtle, driving it a few inches into the soil through raw power.

Nevertheless, the heavenly lightning inflicted zero harm on the array; it stood flawless as a shield between Jiang Fengwu and peril.

All through this, she kept feeding mana into the formation, swiftly processing pills to restore her energy. Despite the huge burden on her meridians, she showed no reluctance.

The key now was to resist this tribulation thunder; success meant everything would turn out fine, allowing slow recovery in seclusion later. Failure spelled total doom—body and soul destroyed.

The thunder dragon assaulted the array without pause, but inflicted no true damage, with the barriers holding firm in front of her, blocking all threats.

This appeared to infuriate the dragon further. It ceased distant strikes and lunged forward, seeking a final, all-out clash!

Rumble—rumble—rumble—

The moment the thunder collided with the formation, a colossal impact quaked the earth across tens of miles, like a minor quake striking suddenly.

As the main focus, Jiang Fengwu endured crushing pressure naturally.

The downside of pure defense without countering showed clearly—she remained completely reactive.

Crack—

Shortly after impact, a thin fracture emerged in the formation.

This shift caused her face to change sharply, though she forced composure.

Gazing at the slowly fading array, she realized clearly that it wouldn't last long at this pace, and disaster would claim her too.

Therefore, Jiang Fengwu chose a bold gambit!

She planned to trigger the formation's self-destruction, hoping to take the tribulation thunder down with it if possible, or at least sap its strength greatly.

Regarding the danger to her inside during the blast—she'd already safeguarded herself with multiple protective layers.

This approach let her survive the outburst and gain extra moments if any tribulation thunder lingered post-explosion.

In mere seconds, everything stood ready.

With zero doubt, Jiang Fengwu set off the grand array.

Rumble—rumble—rumble—

A cataclysmic blast exploded outward, swallowing more than ten miles in its wake, consuming the last bolt of tribulation thunder too.

Roar!

The thunder dragon, seeming almost alive, writhed wildly amid the detonation, desperate to break free.

Regrettably, it failed in the end.

Still, the heavenly lightning didn't vanish completely; faint sparks persisted, but Jiang Fengwu dispersed them with a casual gesture.

All nine bolts of tribulation thunder were at last overcome!

However, the thunder tribulation offered no respite; a heart demon arrived right on its heels.

Yet once the heart demon invaded Jiang Fengwu's sea of consciousness, it got instantly ensnared by an array diagram!

She'd held back her core magical treasure, the Ten Thousand Arrays Diagram, exactly for this critical juncture.

This setup drew from the Purifying White Lotus, Righteous-Subduing Dao Patterns, and her personal array knowledge—a specialized trap for heart demons.

The formation proved highly effective, though one big issue existed: heart demons typically manifest only inside one's sea of consciousness, and typical spiritual items can't enter there.
