Divine Level Witch Doctor

The Bone Woman’s current predicament was no better than Zhao Yuan’s.

She was a Demon, and Celestial Thunder was her natural bane. What’s more, this Celestial Thunder was originally aimed at her! Although Zhao Yuan and the Wind and Thunder Whip were helping her bear the burden, the devastation and torment brought by the Celestial Thunder still left her in excruciating pain!

The Bone Woman felt her newly repaired skeleton fracturing once more under the bombardment of the Celestial Thunder!

No, it was more than just fracturing. The Celestial Thunder was blasting her bones directly into dust! It was only by maintaining her Demon Power that her skeleton hadn’t truly collapsed.

Although the pain was extreme, the Bone Woman refused to give up. Not only did she grit her teeth and endure, but she also kept cheering herself on in her heart: ’Hold on! I have to hold on! As long as I can endure this, I won’t just become a Great Demon, I might even get a chance to advance further!’

Zhao Yuan was the same.

The hair he had just started to grow was once again seared away by the electricity. Although Wish Power and Qi protected him from being killed by the powerful current, he was still electrocuted to the point of bleeding from all seven orifices. He was a miserable sight, truly too wretched to look at!

Despite being in such pain, so miserable, Zhao Yuan was still holding on.

Past experience had taught him that the greater the pain he endured, the greater the reward would be afterward!

So at this moment, he had only one thought in his mind: endure, and endure again!

The first wave of lightning passed quickly, but before Zhao Yuan and the Bone Woman could even sigh in relief, the second wave arrived, even stronger than the last!

Zhao Yuan and the Bone Woman nearly shattered their teeth from gritting them so hard, but they still held on!

The third wave... the fourth wave... the fifth wave...

Wave after wave of lightning continuously bombarded the room, striking the Wind and Thunder Whip, Zhao Yuan, and the Bone Woman.

At this moment, both Zhao Yuan and the Bone Woman were on the verge of collapse, barely able to hold on any longer.

And yet, Zhao Yuan’s mind was incredibly clear.

He thought quickly, ’This damn Celestial Thunder... I don’t know how many more waves there will be, but the Bone Woman and I are about to break. I have to make the Wind and Thunder Whip absorb more of the Celestial Thunder for us.’

Seeing the sixth wave of Celestial Thunder about to descend, Zhao Yuan didn’t dare hesitate and hurriedly activated his backup plan.

Countless dazzling electric snakes immediately erupted from the Wind and Thunder Whip.

The sixth wave of Celestial Thunder crashed down, its intensity much greater than before. This time, however, the Wind and Thunder Whip absorbed the vast majority of the lightning’s power, lessening the pressure and torment on Zhao Yuan and the Bone Woman.

They couldn’t help but sigh in relief, a newfound confidence blooming in their hearts.

Speaking of which, Zhao Yuan had gotten lucky. Fortunately, his Wind and Thunder Whip contained a trace of Celestial Thunder Power. When the Celestial Thunder fell, not only was it not repelled, but it was actively drawn toward the whip.

Otherwise, even if the Wind and Thunder Whip could help Zhao Yuan and the Bone Woman withstand the Celestial Thunder, it never could have endured this much. In fact, there was a high probability that the whip would have shattered into dust from the Celestial Thunder’s bombardment!

After all, the Thunder Magical Artifact used by that incredibly inventive senior Cultivator who created the technique was of a very High Grade!

After the sixth wave of Celestial Thunder passed, the seventh and eighth waves soon followed.

After the ninth wave of Celestial Thunder ended, no more came crashing down. The churning black clouds that had enveloped the sky also dispersed, and the sun reappeared.

Sunlight washed over Zhao Yuan and the Bone Woman, bringing waves of warmth.

Zhao Yuan exhaled a puff of scorched air and sighed in his heart, ’We finally made it through. I never imagined the Thunder Tribulation would be so terrifying! If it weren’t for the Wind and Thunder Whip, I’m afraid the Bone Woman and I would have been blasted to smithereens by the Celestial Thunder long ago!’

The Bone Woman was also stunned by the might of the Celestial Thunder. ’This Celestial Thunder... it’s truly terrifying. If not for Master and his Wind and Thunder Whip shouldering most of the Celestial Thunder Power for me, I’m afraid I would have been killed instantly!’

Both Zhao Yuan and the Bone Woman were new to Cultivation, so they had no idea that what the Bone Woman had attracted today was not an ordinary Thunder Tribulation, but a Nine-Turn Thunder Slaughter!

This type of Thunder Tribulation was supposed to appear when a Great Demon breaks through to become a Demon King. For some unknown reason, it had arrived a full realm early! The disturbance caused by this Thunder Tribulation had also attracted the attention of all the Cultivators in Western Shu Province.

”Nine-Turn Thunder Slaughter? A Great Demon is breaking through to become a Demon King! Are there still such powerful Demons in the world today?” Many knowledgeable Cultivators were deeply shaken by this world-shocking Thunder Tribulation.

However, some more powerful Cultivators noticed something strange about this Thunder Tribulation. ”But this Nine-Turn Thunder Slaughter is a bit odd... The waves weren’t continuous. It’s as if some kind of accident turned an ordinary Thunder Tribulation into a Nine-Turn Thunder Slaughter. But what kind of accident could possibly force a Thunder Tribulation to upgrade itself?”

No matter how experienced or knowledgeable they were, they could never have imagined that there were madmen in this world who would actually try to absorb Celestial Thunder for their Cultivation!

Without a doubt, the ordinary Thunder Tribulation had transformed into a Nine-Turn Thunder Slaughter precisely because they had absorbed the Celestial Thunder! Fortunately, when the sixth wave struck, Zhao Yuan had decisively made the Wind and Thunder Whip absorb the Celestial Thunder. And since the whip already contained a certain amount of Celestial Thunder Power, it stopped the tribulation from escalating beyond the Nine-Turn Thunder Slaughter. Otherwise, it could have evolved into thirty-six, seventy-two, or even more waves of Celestial Thunder!

Zhao Yuan and the Bone Woman had no idea they had just narrowly escaped a greater disaster. They were frantically activating the Thunder Attraction Body Refining Technique, channeling the lightning to reconstruct and strengthen their bodies!

Time flew by in the process.

It wasn’t until noon the next day that this process of reconstruction and strengthening finally came to an end.

At the same time, they had also absorbed a portion of the Celestial Thunder Power. It fused with their own Wish Power, Qi, and Demon Power, forming a special kind of energy. Unfortunately, their strength was simply too low, so the amount of Celestial Thunder Power they could absorb was limited. Otherwise, their gains would have been even greater!

However, the improvement the Celestial Thunder made to their bodies was immense.

Zhao Yuan could clearly feel his body brimming with power. His organs, meridians, muscles, and even his blood and skin were all significantly stronger than before! Most importantly, this enhancement would be of great benefit to his future Cultivation!

On top of that, his power had leaped all the way to the Mid Stage of Qi Listening Realm!

But the Bone Woman’s benefits were even greater!

After surviving the Thunder Tribulation, her power had ascended to the Great Demon Realm! Furthermore, the Celestial Thunder had carved a series of strange blue patterns onto her skeleton. Whenever she activated her Demon Power, these bewitching patterns would generate Thunderbolt Power!

Lightning, originally the bane of all demons and ghosts, had now become the Bone Woman’s own power!

This mutation would undoubtedly make countless Cultivators’ jaws drop in shock!
