I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 2340 Fighting
At this moment, the thunderclouds in the sky resembled a boiling sea of ​​ink, churning with an ominous aura, their blackness tinged with an eerie red, as if foreshadowing a disaster far greater than any before.

The thunder roared, deafening, each sound reverberating in everyone's hearts.

"The power of this tribulation lightning has increased!" an elder from the Array Sect exclaimed in alarm, his voice filled with barely concealed panic.

This sudden turn of events made everyone's hearts tighten, as if an invisible boulder was pressing on their chests, making it difficult to breathe.

Some of the weaker disciples of the Array Sect were even paler, with large beads of sweat sliding down their cheeks. They struggled to support themselves, as if they might collapse at any moment.

Tension and fear permeated the entire Array Sect Square, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it was suffocating.

"Liu Jun, what about this lightning tribulation?" The Array Sect Ancestor came to Liu Jun's side and asked in a deep voice.

His voice held a hint of urgency, hoping to get an answer from Liu Jun. After all, this tribulation was far too outrageous.

Liu Jun pointed to a spot not far away, where a figure was huddled up with his head in his hands, trembling.

The mighty ancient war god of the West now looked extremely disheveled, a far cry from the imposing and confident god-level expert he once was.

"A tribulation of lightning from a God-Lord Realm expert, that guy is a God-Lord Realm expert." Liu Jun's voice was tinged with amusement. He simply couldn't reconcile the cowardly guy in front of him with a God-Lord Realm expert.

Upon hearing this, the ancestor of the Formation Sect stared wide-eyed in astonishment at Thor, looking at him in disbelief. How could that cowardly guy who was practically burying his head in his crotch possibly be a God Lord Realm expert?
It's important to understand that in the entire God Realm, there was only one publicly known God Lord level expert. Since the God Lord's fall, no God Lord level expert had appeared in the entire God Realm for a very long time. This sudden appearance of a God Lord level expert shocked and confused the Array Sect Ancestor.

The key point is, you're already a God-Lord level expert, why are you so cowardly? How did you even break through to the God-Lord level?

While feeling puzzled, the ancestor of the Array Sect also had an ominous premonition. This tribulation of a Divine Lord Realm expert was probably beyond their ability to withstand.

Thinking of this, the ancestor of the Formation Sect felt his heart sink, his face turned even paler, and a trace of despair flashed in his eyes.

"Liu Jun, do you have a way to deal with this tribulation lightning?" The Array Sect Ancestor asked with difficulty, his voice trembling slightly.

He hadn't said those words for years; in the past, others had always said them to him. But today, in despair, it was his turn to say them.

How terrifying and powerful is the lightning tribulation of a God-Lord Realm expert? How could these ants, who are not even at the God-King Realm, possibly withstand it?
At this moment, the ancestor of the Array Sect felt an unprecedented sense of helplessness. He knew that this tribulation was undoubtedly a catastrophe for them.

"It's alright, I'll handle it. It's just a minor tribulation, no problem," Liu Jun grinned.

Although he knew that Liu Jun's words were mostly meant to comfort him, the Array Sect Ancestor still felt much more at ease.

He didn't know how strong Liu Jun was now, but he was definitely stronger than him and had more methods.

If even Liu Jun can't withstand the tribulation lightning of a Divine Lord Realm expert, then they can only be reduced to ashes by the power of this tribulation lightning.

To be honest, Liu Jun wasn't sure either, because the Heavenly Dao incarnation had gone to so much trouble to force him into this predicament, so it wouldn't let him off so easily.

"Rumble--"

The sky seemed to be torn apart, with an eerie red light flashing at the core of the thunderclouds. Then, the first bolt of lightning, like the wrath of a god, crashed down, tearing through the oppressive air and bringing a chilling pressure.

This lightning tribulation was unlike anything seen before; it was pure white, dazzlingly bright, and contained destructive power.

The lightning twisted and turned in the air like a wildly dancing silver dragon, tearing apart the space in its wake.

Liu Jun stood before the group of Array Sect members, his eyes gleaming with intense fighting spirit.

Facing the unstoppable lightning tribulation, Liu Jun was fearless. Holding the Netherworld Sword, he soared into the sky like a dazzling meteor, heading straight for the lightning tribulation.

"Drink!" With a furious shout, Liu Jun swung the Netherworld Sword in his hand, and an extremely sharp sword light slashed through the sky, colliding fiercely with the white lightning tribulation.

Sword light and lightning intertwined, instantly bursting forth with dazzling light, illuminating the entire sky as if it were daytime.

The members of the Array Sect were met with a blinding white light that made it almost impossible for them to open their eyes. The deafening roar of thunder and sword cries filled their ears, as if the entire world was trembling at that moment.

Everyone was secretly amazed. The power of the lightning tribulation was so terrifying, and Liu Jun was able to withstand it with a single sword strike. He was truly amazing. No wonder he was the ancestor of the Array Sect and an idol-level figure.

As their vision gradually returned, when everyone looked again, they saw Liu Jun still hovering in mid-air, the tip of the Netherworld Sword trembling slightly, emitting an even deeper light.

The white lightning tribulation, weakened considerably after the collision, dimmed and slowly dissipated into the world.

"Good!" The members of the Array Sect couldn't help but cheer in unison, their voices filled with admiration and respect for Liu Jun's strength.

Such a terrifying tribulation lightning, yet Liu Jun was able to withstand it single-handedly. He's truly amazing, an idol-level figure!

However, amidst the cheers of the Array Sect members, Liu Jun and some of the Array Sect's higher-ups did not show the slightest sign of joy.

Their eyes, however, revealed a hint of solemnity and worry.

This was only the fifth lightning tribulation. Following the usual pattern of lightning tribulations, there should have been nine such tribulations. This meant that at least four more, even more ferocious ones, awaited them. Thinking of this, everyone's hearts sank. They knew that the subsequent tribulations would be twice as powerful as the previous ones, and how terrifying and dangerous that would be.

The patriarch of the Array Sect slowly stepped forward, his eyes filled with concern and worry.

"How are you, Liu Jun? Are you still able to do it?" The ancestor of the Array Sect sighed and asked in a low voice.

Liu Jun's slightly trembling hands betrayed his inner tension and exhaustion. He had just barely withstood this lightning tribulation with astonishing strength, but only he himself knew the difficulties and dangers involved.

He glanced intently at the churning thunderclouds overhead, which were still brewing an even more ferocious attack, and secretly considered his next course of action.

"It's alright," Liu Jun gritted his teeth and forced a smile. "I'll find a helper."

With that, he flashed away and sped off towards Thor in the distance.

Thor, once a powerful and influential god-level expert, now cowered to one side like a child, his face filled with fear and unease.

His eyes revealed a deep fear of the tribulation lightning, as if the rolling thunder and dazzling lightning were his eternal nightmare.

But Liu Jun did not give up. He knew that although Thor was afraid of thunder, his strength was a genuine Divine Lord realm expert. If he could persuade Thor to face the lightning tribulation head-on and join forces with him to fight the enemy, their chances of survival would undoubtedly increase significantly.

“Sol,” Liu Jun walked to Sol’s side and called out softly, “I know you’re afraid of thunder, but we have no way out now. Only by joining forces to fight the enemy can we possibly survive this calamity.”

Thor's body trembled slightly. He raised his head and looked at Liu Jun with his fearful eyes.

"What the hell? You're scared to tears?" Liu Jun's lips twitched, speechless to the extreme, and he almost dropped the Netherworld Sword in his hand.

He stared wide-eyed at the ancient Western war god before him, incredulous.

Thor's broad shoulders were trembling violently, his thick arms tightly wrapped around his knees, huddled in a corner like a frightened child. His usually imposing face was now streaked with tears, and his thick beard was soaked with strands of sweat.

This guy is over two meters tall, with muscles like cast iron, and the strength of a God Lord, yet he cried because he was scared by thunder! Who the hell would believe that?

Liu Jun looked up at the thunderclouds gathering in the sky, where purple lightning flickered intermittently, emitting a muffled rumbling sound.

"I...I can't do it, I can't take it," Thor's voice trembled, tears still streaming down his face, his usually fierce eyes now filled with fear.

His fingers dug deep into the ground, leaving ten clear finger marks on the hard rock.

"You can't even hear or see thunder, right?" Liu Jun squatted down and asked in as low a voice as possible.

He noticed that Thor's pupils contracted sharply with each clap of thunder, and his breathing became rapid.

Thor nodded, veins bulging on his thick arms: "Back in the Western God Realm, I always... I always hid when I heard thunder." His voice trailed off, "So I wasn't afraid when I couldn't see or hear it."

The distant thunderclouds drew ever closer, lightning flashing like silver snakes through them. Liu Jun knew time was of the essence and he had to devise a plan as soon as possible. He reached into his storage pouch and pulled out two awareness-sealing talismans.

“Then I’ll seal your ears and eyes. You just need to stand still,” Liu Jun said quickly, taking out a golden contract rope from his pocket. “Remember to lend me your power.”

Thor hesitated, his large fingers twisting nervously together: "But what if I get struck by lightning?"

"Stop dawdling!" Liu Jun interrupted sharply, pointing to the thunderclouds in the sky that had turned deep purple. "Why don't you just take this tribulation yourself! Judging by the momentum, you won't even need the last lightning strike; two more will be enough to send you on your way."

Upon hearing the words "let him bear it himself," Thor's face turned deathly pale.

"Alright, alright," Thor finally nodded, his voice barely audible.

He trembled as he reached out and let Liu Jun place the mind-closing talisman on his temple, then tied their wrists together with a golden rope.

Just before the talisman took effect, Thor suddenly grabbed Liu Jun's wrist: "Wait! What if the plan fails?"

Liu Jun rolled his eyes: "Then let's all become kebabs! We're going to die anyway, might as well take a gamble!"

As the final talisman took effect, Thor's senses were completely shut down. His tall frame stood frozen in place, like a statue. Liu Jun took a deep breath, feeling the surging divine power emanating from the golden rope, and looked up to meet the thunderclouds that were now pressing down on him.

The moment the sixth bolt of lightning struck, the entire Array Sect was illuminated by a blinding light, as if day had arrived, enveloping everything in a dazzling brilliance.

The power of thunder surged through the air, creating sonic booms that were awe-inspiring.

This bolt of lightning was no ordinary lightning; it was a white lightning dragon crackling with lightning, coiling and circling in mid-air, with arcs of electricity leaping and flashing across its body, radiating a terrifying aura that sent chills down one's spine.

Lei Long's eyes were fixed on Liu Jun below, as if he wanted to devour him completely.

Standing beneath the lightning tribulation, Liu Jun felt the terrifying power surging within him from Thor. His aura surged at that moment, and he no longer needed the Nether Sword. He threw a punch directly at the white lightning dragon.

"Go to hell!" With a furious shout from Liu Jun, his fist seemed to transform into a star, carrying earth-shattering power, and collided fiercely with the white lightning dragon.
