“Impossible.”
The Golden Dragon Venerable roared, staring at the endless thunder. The pitch-black lightning engulfed some areas, forming a terrifying forbidden zone. Even from a distance, it appeared incredibly fearsome. People found it hard to imagine the calamity Qin Chen was enduring in the Thunder Sea. They opened their divine eyes to observe, but saw nothing; the dark lightning swallowed everything, sending chills down their spines.
This thunder was so powerful that even a Venerable could be annihilated by it.
The Golden Dragon Venerable glared at the Thunder Sea, his expression filled with unwillingness.
“Hmph, there’s nothing that isn’t possible. Golden Dragon Venerable, at a time like this, you should be more concerned about yourself rather than worrying about a kid from the True Dragon Tribe.”
The Solitary Mountain Venerable and others approached. The five great Venerables occupied five positions, and beams of light continuously struck towards the Golden Dragon Venerable, causing him to roar incessantly.
Puff! Blood from a dragon burst forth in the void.
The Golden Dragon Venerable finally could not withstand it anymore.
Fighting alone against the five great Venerables, even he found it somewhat unbearable.
At this moment, within the endless dark Thunder Sea, Qin Chen’s skin was torn and scorched, his body charred black, and surging blood flowed from him, sustaining unimaginable damage.
Though heavily injured, he radiated immense vitality, showing no signs of despair; instead, he raised his head towards the sky, fighting back with all his might.
The Primordial Ancestral Dragon and the Blood River Saint Ancestor were astonished. This thunder was too terrifying, even they felt a sense of dread. If a regular person faced it, they would likely turn to ash from a single bolt. Yet, Qin Chen was struggling against the vast ocean of black thunder.
“Boom!”
Another wave of thunder surged forth, incredibly intense, burying Qin Chen beneath it. It was unclear how many bolts struck him, crimson blood splattered everywhere, and his bones cracked under the pressure.
“What exactly is this kid’s background? Why is he facing such a tribulation for breaking through to the Earth Venerable?”
Even the Primordial Ancestral Dragon felt bewildered, worried for Qin Chen.
But Qin Chen knew that this thunder did not come because of his breakthrough to the Earth Venerable; it had actually appeared when he first broke through to the Heaven Venerable, but at that time, he was in the Myriad Divine Treasury, so the thunder did not strike. Now, it had all descended simultaneously.
Puff! Qin Chen was blasted out, drenched in blood, with bones protruding, looking extremely tragic.
“This kid won’t be killed by the thunder, will he?”
The Primordial Ancestral Dragon was horrified.
“Impossible.”
At that moment, the lord of abyssal demons squinted his eyes, “The master can be killed by any power, but he can never be killed by thunder.”
“Oh?”
The Primordial Ancestral Dragon and Blood River Saint Ancestor turned to look. Seeing the lord of abyssal demons’ confident gaze, they pondered. Could it be…
Boom! At this moment, lightning flickered, and even Qin Chen's powerful physique was on the verge of collapse, almost punctured, with many wounds exposing bone, and a great deal of crimson blood spilled out.
However, the aura emanating from Qin Chen grew increasingly stronger.
“Hahahaha!”
Qin Chen laughed heartily amidst the tribulation, for the power of this thunder not only suppressed him but also triggered a transformation within him. As the thunder descended, the heavenly dao power that had always constrained him loosened at that moment.
“Breakthrough, Earth Venerable!”
Boom! A rolling essence of Earth Venerable emerged from Qin Chen's body. In the Chaotic World, large amounts of primordial chaos source surged forth, and chaos fruits began to fly out.
One! Two! Five! Ten!
Countless chaos fruits were consumed by Qin Chen, and only after swallowing eighteen did he finally halt.
