Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 837 Gathering of Powerful Figures: Where Did These Experts Come From?!

"It seems that this ferocious beast lightning tribulation also contains some other power."

Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling the scattered White Tiger Lightning Tribulation transformed into electric currents coursing through his body. He even deliberately released the defenses on the surface of his skin; otherwise, with his current physical strength, these electric currents could only coursing on the surface of his skin and could not enter his body.

When he released his defenses and allowed the extremely violent lightning to enter his body, the cells in his body were instantly activated by the power of thunder!

The body's self-defense mechanism reacted quickly, and the blood and qi within the body surged towards the lightning bolts like a raging torrent!

The human body is the most vulnerable part of a person, not to mention that this is a 200,000-year-old ferocious beast tribulation. Even a titled Douluo could be reduced to ashes if hit by it!

Even though the thunder was scattered, the power of these lightning bolts, still carrying the residual force of the heavenly tribulation, was still terrifying.

However, these bolts of lightning were completely swallowed up by the surging waves of qi and blood!

The lightning had no chance to fight back, like a lone boat encountering raging waves on a stormy sea, destined to capsize in an instant! It didn't even make a ripple.

After absorbing these bolts of lightning, the power of qi and blood seemed to have undergone some changes.

As the surge of qi and blood rose again, it seemed as if there were specks of lightning flashing within it.

Jiang Ming felt the changes within his body and raised an eyebrow slightly.

"This beast lightning tribulation is indeed quite different from the 100,000-year lightning tribulation. The new power contained within the lightning is more obvious."

Thunder is the most explosive, violent, and destructive force in the world!

But the Heavenly Tribulation is a test for the soul beast.

This test is not only devastating, but within the destruction lies the possibility of new life.

If the soul beast cannot withstand this lightning tribulation, it will naturally be reduced to ashes, and everything will be over.

But if a soul beast survives the tribulation lightning, the rebirth from destruction is a gift to it.

If the Evil Lord could even receive this gift, his severely injured body might recover somewhat.

Of course, this is impossible.

Jiang Ming is currently bearing the brunt of the tribulation, and the rewards that follow will naturally benefit him as well.

However, the new energy contained within the ferocious beast lightning tribulation was still too little!

Ultimately, this ferocious beast lightning tribulation is just a lightning tribulation for a 200,000-year-old soul beast. To put it another way, even a level 95 Super Douluo could pass it, and even a level 94 Title Douluo could try it.

This is too weak for Jiang Ming.

As I said before, if Jiang Ming doesn't release the defenses on the surface of his body, the lightning tribulation won't even be able to enter his body!
"Xue'er, after this ferocious beast lightning tribulation is over, when will the next lightning tribulation be?"

Jiang Ming turned his head to look at Xue Di, who was standing on his shoulder, and asked softly.

The Snow Empress has a wealth of experience in overcoming tribulations.

The Snow Emperor thought for a moment and said, "The third tribulation is the tribulation of a ferocious beast that has lasted for 300,000 years. I remember that I descended a day after the second tribulation."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.

"This tribulation is taking too long. But it suits me just fine."

He felt that this tribulation was a bit like slacking off at work, but for him, this situation was undoubtedly perfect.

After all, the Evil Lord's cultivation level has only reached 810,000 years, and it will take some time before it reaches 900,000 years.

"Hehe, you're just talking without understanding the pain. When I was undergoing my 300,000-year tribulation, I was hoping this third tribulation would come later."

Xue Di patted Jiang Ming's ear and rolled her eyes.

With her strength back then, passing the 300,000-year Heavenly Tribulation wouldn't have been a problem for her. However, it was still a Heavenly Tribulation, so she naturally wanted more time to prepare.

Don't be fooled by how easily Jiang Ming is undergoing his tribulation; it's because he's helping the Evil Lord withstand the lightning tribulation, so he has no worries about the aftermath.

If it were really the Evil Lord himself, even in his prime, he would desperately hope that the tribulation would be delayed a little longer so that he could prepare properly.

The evil lord didn't take the previous tribulations seriously, but they served as a buffer, allowing his body to gradually adapt to the tribulations and accumulate strength from the new power of the tribulations.

Seeing that the next tribulation lightning strike was still a day away, Jiang Ming, bored, descended once more.

A day is long, but Jiang Ming didn't take advantage of the break to go anywhere else.

The heavenly tribulation had already been locked in place after it began.

The target of the Evil Lord, who triggered the tribulation, has been locked in, and so has the person who will bear the tribulation.

If he wanders off, the heavenly tribulation might engulf everyone else as well. If a group of people were to undergo tribulation, that would be quite a spectacle.

Sitting back on the Evil Lord's body, Jiang Ming took out a soul-guided transmitter, wanting to use it to chat with the people in the distance.

Unfortunately, the magnetic field of the lightning tribulation was too strong, and the soul-guided transmitter became completely ineffective!
"Ugh, this is so boring."

If the soul-guided transmitter malfunctions, then there's nothing that can be done.

While Jiang Ming waited for the third heavenly tribulation to descend, forces from all sides of the continent finally arrived one after another.

From the moment the message was sent out by the various factions in Shrek City, to their reaction, and then to their arrival, the entire process didn't actually take very long.

With a well-established and efficient system in place, the transmission of messages is very fast. From Shrek City to Star Luo City, to Heaven Dou City, and to Dou Ling City, it only takes a day or two.

Other major powers may be a little slower, but not by much.

As for reacting, anyone who isn't out of their mind can react quickly.

At most, it will just take a little time to find the person.

Once the right person is chosen, whether it's the speed of a Title Douluo or using a flying soul tool at full speed, the journey won't take long; they can arrive in less than a day.

The whole process can take a little over two days if it's fast, and three days if it's slow.

Just as Jiang Ming was about to face the third Heavenly Tribulation, the people from the Star Luo Empire arrived!

Even from a great distance, one could see thick, dark clouds covering an area of ​​hundreds of miles, along with the constantly surging lightning within those clouds, and a terrifying rift in the sky that resembled the raised eye of a deity.

"What's happening here?!"

Xu Jiujiu stared at this scene, completely stunned.

The message she received clearly stated that Jiang Ming had severely injured the Evil Lord and sealed him within the Extreme Ice, seemingly preparing to absorb the Evil Lord's soul ring.

Even if Jiang Ming has already started absorbing spirit rings, it shouldn't be like this!
Could it be that absorbing an 800,000-year-old soul ring will trigger a heavenly tribulation?

She was lost in thought for a long time. Beside her, the Immortal Doctor Douluo Wang Xian'er looked at the sky in front of her, her aged face full of solemnity.

"Jiujiu, let's go down. The area covered by this heavenly tribulation is too large. If we fly over like this, we might be locked onto by the lightning tribulation!"

Xu Jiujiu's cultivation level is only at the seventh ring, so he can only get a general idea of ​​the power of the heavenly tribulation by observing its vast coverage area.

But the higher one's cultivation level, the more one can feel the terrifying pressure contained within this tribulation lightning!
As a level 96 Super Douluo, she felt a strong sense of crisis under such terrifying thunderous pressure!
If she were to withstand a lightning tribulation, she might truly be reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye!

"Old Wang is right. This heavenly tribulation does cover a very large area and its energy is too strong. If you fly in rashly, you will easily be locked on."

Among the three, a middle-aged man with a resolute face spoke.

This is none other than Lei Yaoyang, the Dark Thunder Douluo, who is the Hall Master of the Star Luo Empire's Hall of Worship and has a cultivation level of 97!
As he spoke, Dark Thunder Douluo transformed into a bolt of dark lightning and plunged towards the ground.

Wang Xian'er, along with Princess Jiu Jiu, descended downwards.

Unable to fly, but even on the ground, the three were quite fast and soon arrived near the tribulation area.

However, before they could get close, they were intercepted by the Shrek City defense forces protecting the area.

Such a grand event, which had been going on for several days, was naturally something Shrek Academy and Shrek City had already made arrangements for.

Centered on the place where Jiang Ming underwent his tribulation, within a radius of three kilometers, the Shrek City Defense Army formed the first line of defense. Within a radius of two kilometers, the inner court soul masters and soul instructors of Shrek Academy, along with the prepared soul guidance artillery positions, formed the second line of defense.

One kilometer away, the elders of Shrek Academy's Sea God Pavilion form the third line of defense.

In terms of defensive strength, the first line of defense is impenetrable to anyone below the Soul Saint level!

The Shrek City Defense Force was among the first organized troops to benefit from the development of the Soul Guidance Department at Shrek Academy.

Or rather, the Shrek Academy city defense force has developed into a Soul Master Corps!

The members of the Soul Master Corps are all at around the fourth-ring Soul Master level.

Some recruit from outside, while others are guaranteed job placement after graduating from the outer academy. Their overall combat strength may not be as good as the mature Guardian Soul Master Corps of the Sun Moon Empire, but it won't be too far off.

Even without the leader of the Soul Master Corps taking action, this group of Soul Masters, equipped with Soul Guidance Devices, would be enough to intercept a Soul Master with the cultivation of a Soul Saint!

The second line of defense, though small in number, is of very high quality!

The inner court disciples all have at least the cultivation level of Soul King, and Soul Emperors and Soul Saints are commonplace. Soul Douluos are rare, but not nonexistent.

Furthermore, the inner court disciples truly possess a complete set of soul tool equipment, all of which are level six or above!

Even excluding those who were outside carrying out Shrek Academy's inspection missions and others who were not in the inner courtyard, there were still nearly two hundred such inner courtyard disciples!

It can be said that these two hundred people could take down one of the Soul Master Corps of the Sun Moon Empire's Guardian Hand!
They were only half the number of people, but their strength was worlds apart.

The defensive strength of the third line of defense is even more formidable. It can withstand Title Douluo, Super Douluo, and Limit Douluo. If anyone were to force their way through here, they would surely die!

"I am Princess Xu Jiujiu of the Star Luo Empire. Please announce my identity."

Intercepted by Shrek City's city defense forces, Xu Jiujiu and his group did not force their way in, but instead sent someone to report the incident.

With their strength, they could easily cross the first and second lines of defense, but in such a tense moment, forcing their way through could easily provoke the nerves of the Shrek Academy's experts, and if it caused any misunderstanding, it would definitely be a loss.

Soon, the Shrek City defense soldiers relayed the message to the elders.

Before long, someone came to greet Xu Jiujiu and her group.

It's Elder Song!
When he saw Xu Jiujiu and his group, Old Song was slightly surprised.

Xu Jiujiu goes without saying; the Immortal Doctor Douluo Wang Xian'er had visited before, so it's not surprising that she's coming again this time.

But Lei Yaoyang's arrival genuinely surprised her.

"Old Lei hasn't left Xingluo City for so many years, why did he come this time?"

Old Song's age is actually not that old. Her daughter, Xian Lin'er, the dean of the Soul Guidance Department, is in her eighties or nineties. As a mother, even if she gave birth relatively late, she would not be older than 150.

Lei Yaoyang, as the head of the Hall of Worship of the Star Luo Empire, is not as old as the Immortal Healer Douluo, after all, the Immortal Healer Douluo is from the same era as Elder Mu, the Dragon God Douluo.

But he is already over 180 years old.

If you really want to count, Lei Yaoyang is only half a generation younger than Xuanzi, so he is definitely a senior of Elder Song.

Lei Yaoyang looked at Elder Song and said softly, "I recently finished my seclusion and heard that Shrek Academy has produced a peerless genius, so I came to take a look."

Old Master Song chuckled, “In that case, the three of you may follow me. But let me make this clear first: once inside, do not make any unnecessary movements. It could be very dangerous if something goes wrong!”

Upon hearing this, Lei Yaoyang's eyes narrowed slightly: "Of course."

As the owner of the Thunder Wolf Martial Soul, he is extremely sensitive to the aura of thunder power and can better sense how dangerous the situation inside is.

Soon, led by Elder Song, the three passed through the first two lines of defense and entered the core viewing area.

As soon as Lei Yaoyang entered the core viewing area, he was startled!
"He really is an evil lord!"

Even though he was the head of the Star Luo Empire's Hall of Worship, he had never seen the Evil Lord.

Or rather, with a cultivation level of ninety-seven, one is not qualified to meet the Evil Lord.

This kind of person is already dead the moment they see the evil lord!

But when Lei Yaoyang, the Dark Thunder Douluo, saw the huge, frozen eye, he was absolutely convinced that it was the Evil Monarch!
Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean you don't know about it.

In fact, very few people have seen what the ten most ferocious beasts on the mainland look like, but there are quite a few records about them.

And the Evil Lord's appearance is too distinctive! A huge single eye with a diameter of three hundred meters, besides the Evil Lord, he really couldn't believe that any other soul beast could have such a large size!
"Xiao Lei, don't make a fuss. Since you're here, just enjoy the show."

At this moment, Elder Xuan looked towards Lei Yaoyang.

When Master Xuan first became famous, he gave Lei Yaoyang some pointers, and the two were quite familiar with each other.

Hearing Elder Xuan's words, Lei Yaoyang nodded and remained silent, standing aside quietly watching the third lightning tribulation about to fall from the sky!
The people from the Star Luo Empire arrived, while on the other side, the people from the Heavenly Soul Empire ran into several groups!
Since they were both within the territory of the Heavenly Soul Empire, Princess Vina and the Golden Body Douluo led their people toward Shrek Academy and ran into Ning Jie of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School!

Not only that, the patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family also happened to be on this route, where a group of people gathered together.

Even more coincidentally, as this group was heading towards Shrek Academy, two figures suddenly passed right past them, flying off in the same direction at incredible speed.

Everyone was startled when they saw the two figures, one in green and one in black.

Judging from their aura, these two were even stronger than the Golden Body Douluo among them, who was at level 96!
Ning Jie frowned and muttered to himself, "Where did this powerful expert come from?!"
