Chapter 650: Breaking Through to Divine Silence

At the edge of the Three Thousand Seas, the tides surged and monstrous waves crashed against the shore, flinging spray a hundred zhang high to strike the Firmament!

SCREECH!

A silver Great Peng soared across the sky, its silver wings beating against the waves as it cut through the colossal breakers, heading straight for the distant heavens.

BOOM!

Ye Wushuang’s figure landed on a black reef island a hundred li from the coast!

It was less an island and more of an oval-shaped black reef.

Roughly the size of a soccer field, it was covered in fine black rock and suffered the constant pounding of hundred-zhang waves, which sent violent tremors through it!

Ye Wushuang frowned slightly, glancing at his feet before looking up at the Firmament!

’I’ll undergo my tribulation here!’

His gaze suddenly sharpened, and the aura around him began to climb!

Unbeknownst to him, a group of young men and women were riding the great waves nearby, gradually approaching his position.

This group wore Battle Armor of various colors. Some had scales covering their arms, while others had them on their faces. From their appearance, they did not seem to be human.

Their strength was considerable. Several had entered the Nirvana Realm, and one of them was even a Divine Silence Level expert!

Within the group, a young woman scanned their surroundings and asked the Divine Silence Level expert at the forefront, "Brother Peng, are you sure the Deep Sea Nether Turtle is really sleeping nearby?"

This Divine Silence Level expert was a young man. His Battle Armor was a deep blue-black, as if it had been steeped in the sea for ten thousand years, its luster not yet faded.

He gripped a Trident, his eyes sweeping the area before him.

After hearing the woman’s question, he turned his head and said, "Jiao Wei, according to the Cyan Shark’s report, the Deep Sea Nether Turtle is sleeping nearby. There’s no mistake. We should be able to find it soon."

"Brother Peng, this stretch of sea is so vast. Without a precise location, finding it will be too difficult."

Beside him, a young man spoke dejectedly, explaining, "Once the Deep Sea Nether Turtle falls asleep, all signs of life are drawn into its Nether Life Pill. Even powerful experts might not be able to sense it. Besides, the Deep Sea Nether Turtle possesses the Power of Nether Life, which can steal a person’s lifespan. With our strength, even if we find it, we might not be able to kill it."

"Jiao Weii, can you not be so pessimistic? If the Clan Leader can’t get the Nether Life Pill to treat his injuries, our clan will just have to wait to be conquered by the others," Jiao Wei said with dissatisfaction.

"Stop arguing. Don’t worry, even if I have to search every inch of this sea, I will find it. As for killing it, just leave that to me."

Jiao Peng cut off their argument, his brow furrowed with a hint of hidden gravity.

The Deep Sea Nether Turtle was a colossal beast that dwelled deep on the ocean floor, absorbing the Death Nether Qi there for its Cultivation.

This Death Nether Qi was a strange power formed from the fusion of Corpse Qi from dead Sea Race members who had sunk to the seabed and the Deep Sea Power.

The Deep Sea Nether Turtle absorbed it and cultivated it into Death Nether Power. If a Cultivator were to be tainted by it, their lifespan would be stripped away. Even a Pseudo-Saint would perish!

The Deep Sea Nether Turtle was extremely vicious by nature. Every time it appeared, it would slaughter countless members of the Sea Race!

After the slaughter, it would drag the corpses to the bottom of the deep sea to provide itself with a continuous supply of Death Nether Qi!

For Jiao Peng, this was no small challenge. If he provoked the Deep Sea Nether Turtle and failed to kill it, he would be the one to die.

However, the Nether Life Pill condensed by the Deep Sea Nether Turtle was a miraculous sacred healing artifact, and he had to obtain it.

"Brother Peng, we’ll help you kill it and heal the Clan Leader!"

Jiao Wei was also aware of how terrifying the Deep Sea Nether Turtle was, but she did not back down.

"That’s right, Brother Peng. We’ll kill it together."

The others all chimed in with their agreement.

"Let’s keep searching."

Jiao Peng nodded and continued onward!

BOOM!

Suddenly, the sky darkened, and a heavy, oppressive aura made the group feel an inexplicable sense of suffocation.

Jiao Peng looked up at the sky. In the distance, the Firmament was covered with thunderclouds. A ten-li sea of lightning flickered, and peerless Thunder Dragons tumbled and roared within it!

Bolts of lightning, dozens of meters in diameter, struck down, shattering the Firmament and blasting open Space Fragments.

The sight made the group’s eyelids twitch, their expressions changing drastically. It was like the end of the world. They had never seen lightning dozens of meters in diameter before. For them, a single strike would mean utter destruction!

"This must be someone Crossing the Tribulation!"

Jiao Peng’s expression was grave as he added, "And judging by the power of this Thunder Tribulation, only someone at the Yun Dao Level could withstand it!"

"Brother Peng, could it be the Abyssal Nether Turtle Crossing the Tribulation?"

Jiao Weii asked weakly from the side, making everyone’s heart skip a beat. If the Abyssal Nether Turtle was Crossing the Tribulation, just how powerful would it have to be to survive such a terrifying Thunder Tribulation?

"Whether it is or not, let’s go check it out. If it is, we can strike when it’s at its weakest. We might just have a chance."

Jiao Peng gritted his teeth and rushed toward the location of the Tribulation Crossing.

When the group arrived at the location, they were stunned by the scene before them.

High in the Firmament, a sea of lightning poured down. Bolts dozens of meters thick rained down relentlessly, as if trying to extinguish all life.

Even more incredibly, a young man stood below with his hands clasped behind his back. His purple robes fluttered and his black hair danced wildly as he stood unmoving beside the ten-thousand-zhang waves!

Facing the world-destroying Thunderbolt filling the sky, he was calm and composed, making no move at all. He simply gazed up at the Firmament!

CRACKLE, CRACKLE!

Even from a great distance, the sound of the crackling Thunderbolt was so piercing it made the group’s eardrums ache. One could only imagine how terrifying the Thunder Power was!

"Look! Oh my god, he... he’s trying to..."

Jiao Wei suddenly cried out in alarm, her mouth forming an "O" shape as she pointed incredulously at the figure beneath the Thunder Tribulation.

The figure opened his mouth wide, and a black vortex rose into the air.

The world-destroying Thunderbolt filling the sky was completely devoured, vanishing without a trace. He closed his mouth, and the endless lightning was gone!

"He swallowed the Thunder Tribulation! What kind of Demon Fiend is he?"

Jiao Weii was dumbfounded, suddenly feeling as if his entire understanding of the world had been overturned.

Without the Eye of the Firmament, Ye Wushuang no longer feared this world-destroying Thunderbolt!

BOOM!

The endless sea of lightning gathered once more, as if containing all the Power of Heaven and Earth. It poured down again, its destructive aura even more terrifying than before.

’I may have already broken through to the Dragon Blood Saint Body stage, but the First Layer of the Divine Silence Realm, the Divinization of Skin and the Hundred Acupoints, is essential. I’ll use this world-destroying Thunderbolt to temper myself!’

Ye Wushuang’s eyes flashed. He retracted all his defenses and, using no power whatsoever, charged into the Firmament with only his physical body.

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

The world-destroying lightning, like murderous whips, lashed mercilessly at Ye Wushuang’s body!

However, his skin did not split open, nor did his flesh tear.

Instead, a faint, rippling halo of light on Ye Wushuang’s skin resisted the blows—a phenomenon that only appeared when one’s physical body had been trained to a certain Realm.

When the world-destroying power landed on it, the halo rippled. The terrifying force slammed into the billions of cells beneath his skin, continuously tempering them!

At the same time, the world-destroying lightning was constantly absorbed, integrating into his Hundred Acupoints to impact and temper them!

The group in the distance could only watch, dumbfounded. They forgot what they were supposed to be doing, unable to comprehend the utterly shocking scene!

They felt as if their understanding of the world had been overturned. Most would be desperate to evade a Thunder Tribulation, yet here was someone charging directly into it to face it head-on with his physical body!
