"Wu Tian!"
From afar, Lei Qianjiao didn't know what had happened.
But seeing Wu Tian struck down by heavenly lightning, she couldn't help but shout out.
Just as she was about to rush towards Wu Tian, she heard the Thunder God's deep voice from the sky:
"Don't come over. With your strength, you'll turn to ashes in an instant!"
"This trial can only be endured by him alone. Don't worry, he's not in serious trouble right now."
Hearing the Thunder God's words, Lei Qianjiao stopped her actions.
Her gaze fell upon Wu Tian, as if trying to pierce through the rising dust to see how Wu Tian was faring.
At this very moment, Wu Tian stood up from the ground, his face contorted in a grimace.
An indescribable pain was spreading from within his body.
After being struck by the heavenly lightning, all his bones felt as if they had been shattered by the thunder.
Sweat immediately seeped out from his pores.
The agonizing pain was truly bone-piercing.
For a moment, even with Wu Tian's resilient nature, he couldn't help but let out a piercing scream.
At this time, the Thunder God's voice drifted down from above: "Wu Tian, these one hundred thousand bolts of heavenly lightning are the purest form of thunder."
"Even a true immortal, unprepared, would perish on the spot."
"This is not something an ordinary person can endure. Since you have joined the trial, the heavenly lightning has already locked onto you."
"It is now impossible to withdraw, so you cannot slacken for a moment."
"Although the human body has its limits, human will is infinite."
"As long as you can withstand this energy, through tempering, nothing is impossible!"
The Thunder God's words seemed to carry a magical power.
It immediately restored much of Wu Tian's almost collapsing will.
And at this moment, from the distant horizon, another thousand-zhang bolt of lightning suddenly descended.
Like a ferocious, roaring thunder dragon, it fiercely struck him!
"Bastard!"
Wu Tian couldn't help but curse, then once again used his physical body to forcefully take the heavenly lightning.
With a boom, the ground erupted violently, earth and rock shooting up like an underground fountain, tens of meters high.
Wu Tian's body was also struck, his skin and flesh torn, almost turning him into a bloody mess.
"Damn it, come at me again!"
Wu Tian did not give up, instead, he roared defiantly at the sky.
The sea of thunder seemed to understand Wu Tian's words and immediately rumbled.
In the blink of an eye, two more golden bolts of lightning struck down, blowing Wu Tian away!
"Are you tickling me? Come again!"
"This much force can't destroy me!"
Wu Tian staggered to his feet, his entire body filled with the pain of being pulverized.
His eyes gradually turned bloodshot, as if sparks were about to fly.
Clearly, under such a barrage, his temper had flared.
Boom, boom!
The sea of thunder showed no mercy to Wu Tian.
With bursts of thunderous explosions, golden heavenly lightning continuously descended, fiercely striking his body.
Boom! Boom!
The incessant explosions seemed to shake the entire world.
Witnessing such a terrifying scene, Lei Qianjiao couldn't help but clutch her chest, a look of deep worry appearing on her pretty face.
...
In the sea of thunder, countless thunderbolts like thunder dragons roared upwards, then continuously bombarded the tiny figure on the ground.
The deafening roars echoed throughout the world.
This scene was no different from the end of the world.
This kind of bombardment continued for an unknown amount of time.
Wu Tian's defiant attitude gradually fell silent amidst the onslaught.
In the beginning, Wu Tian could still count the number of times the heavenly lightning struck.
But as his injuries worsened, his consciousness began to blur.
He no longer knew how many bolts of heavenly lightning had struck; all he could feel was the pervasive pain and torment that spread to every corner of his body.
Under that power, the bones and meridians within him seemed to have completely turned to dust.
He could even feel himself hovering between life and death several times.
However, even though his mind was blurred, his body still did not fall.
Not even his knees had bent!
The stubbornness and defiance etched into his bones made him like the hardest rock in the world.
He refused to be completely lost in the thunderous bombardment.
"I can't fall here, no matter what, I can't fall here..."
A whisper, almost like a dream, echoed continuously in Wu Tian's heart.
This sentence had become his creed, and it was the only thing he could rely on amidst the onslaught.
His physical body, though seemingly vulnerable under the lightning,
His willpower, however, remained unbroken!
Time gradually passed.
At some point, Wu Tian was already suspended in mid-air, maintaining a cross-legged meditation posture.
His body, under the merciless blows of the lightning, was already severely damaged.
Even the surging immortal energy in his Immortal Palace had dissipated.
In this state, he had lost almost all protection, completely exposed to the sky-filling lightning.
However, what was astonishing was that although his physical body had almost reached a state of destruction,
No matter how the lightning struck, it never truly turned him into ashes!
That astonishing willpower seemed to have transformed him into a natural stone statue.
He remained unmoved, no matter how the lightning bombarded him.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom...
Countless bolts of lightning struck down, trying to completely destroy Wu Tian.
But no matter how they struck, Wu Tian showed no sign of wavering.
As time continued to pass, in mid-air, Wu Tian sat quietly, and a heavy majesty began to emanate from his brows.
It was a majesty that seemed capable of contending with the entire world!
As if the lightning power from above was insignificant to him!
Clearly, after enduring such terrifying pressure,
The Holy Dragon power within him seemed to have begun to change!
Seeing this, even the Thunder God in the sky couldn't help but nod gently, a look of admiration appearing in his eyes.
With his strength, even in his prime, few people could elicit such an expression from him.
But at this moment, he felt genuine admiration for this young man.
"This little fellow is truly surprising..."
