Upon witnessing this, Jared held his breath and waited in silence. The sky above the palace was already covered in dark clouds, with lightning streaking across.
Magnus and the others waiting outside looked up at the sky in astonishment.
“This aura is so terrifying. Could it be that the Celestial Battlefield is about to close?” a member of the Nethersky Sect asked in alarm.
However, Magnus shook his head. “Master must be on the verge of a breakthrough. The clouds in the sky are lightning tribulation clouds.”
“A breakthrough?” Surprise appeared on the faces of the few members of the Nethersky Sect. Despite his young age, Pablo was already an Eighth Level Tribulator cultivator.
If he were to achieve another breakthrough, he would become a Ninth Level Tribulator. That would be quite extraordinary.
“Mr. Orozco, if Master breaks through, he will become a Ninth Level Tribulator, Isn’t it unusual for such a young cultivator to reach such a high level of cultivation?”
“Is this even possible? Since when has cultivation become so easy?”
A few members of the Nethersky Sect found it hard to believe.
“Ninth Level?” Magnus looked at the sky solemnly. “Perhaps it’s not the Ninth Level, but a direct breakthrough to the Ultimate Realm. It’s the first time I’ve seen such terrifying lightning tribulation clouds!”
Thunder roared, and lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating the surroundings. The deep and rumbling sounds resembled the roar of a ferocious beast.
Even Feenix, on the mountainside, could hear them clearly and see the lightning tribulation clouds in the sky.
At this moment, Jared also sensed the overwhelming pressure. It was even more intense than when he had achieved a breakthrough.
Gazing at the lightning tribulation clouds looming overhead, accompanied by the ominous peals of thunder, he was filled with disbelief.
“Could it be that this spirit beast needs to endure lightning tribulation when it hatches?”
He was utterly perplexed.
No matter the kind of spirit beast, it’s still part of the beast race, merely an animal. How could it immediately face lightning tribulation following its birth? If that were the case, the beast race would have been extinct long ago, as a beast could never possibly withstand lightning tribulation right after hatching from its egg!
“No, I absolutely can’t allow this spirit beast to die in the egg. I’ve invested so many resources in it. It must hatch from this egg, even if it’s just a dog.”
After Jared finished speaking, the Golem Body enveloped him entirely. He had made up his mind to help shield the spirit beast egg from the lightning tribulation.
Boom!
A thick bolt of lightning suddenly descended, causing the entire roof of the palace to shatter into pieces. With a roar, Jared threw a punch that blocked the bolt of thunder.
“This doesn’t seem right. How could the lightning tribulation be so powerful?”
After shattering the lightning tribulation with a single punch, Jared sensed that something was amiss. The might of the lightning tribulation was surprisingly even more formidable than when he himself had broken through to Tribulator.
What kind of spirit beast could trigger such a formidable lightning tribulation once it hatches from its egg?
Boom!
Before Jared could catch his breath, the second lightning tribulation struck. With gritted teeth, he once again launched an attack towards the lightning tribulation.
Time and again, he blocked off the lightning tribulation. The cracks on the spirit beast egg multiplied, and it seemed to be on the verge of hatching.
Jared was both surprised and delighted, genuinely terrified that a little monster might break out from the egg. If that happened, all his efforts would have been in vain.
Boom!
As he gazed intently at the spirit beast egg, a bolt of lightning tribulation suddenly struck.
“Damn it! When will this end? This is already the eighth lightning tribulation.”
Jared was utterly speechless. When he achieved a breakthrough, he had only faced a maximum of nine lightning tribulations.
But that spirit beast egg hadn’t even hatched yet, and it was already facing its eighth lightning tribulation. Additionally, the might of that eighth lightning tribulation was evidently much greater.
“Mr. Summers, look at the peak of the mountain. It’s the Obsidian Lightning Tribulation.”
Freddie stared blankly at the eighth lightning tribulation on the mountainside, his face filled with shock as he spoke to Tyler.
At that moment, even the usually composed Tyler wore an expression of shock. “Who is it? Who exactly is breaking through? How could there be Obsidian Lightning Tribulation? This is a lightning tribulation that only occurs upon advancing to the Ultimate Realm. Could it be that someone has broken through to the Ultimate Realm?”
