Chapter 468 - The Tribulation Stage (2)
Chapter 468: The Tribulation Stage (2)
Eight nautical miles was easily overcome by the United States’ speedboats. The Japanese’s eagerness, fueled by their desire for revenge, also pushed them to floor the accelerator!
Some of the Xiantian Realm ninjas didn’t even wait for the speedboats to get close to Turtle Island. They simply leapt from the speedboats when they were a hundred meters away!
The helicopters were certainly a monster in their own right. However, they lagged behind slightly. The American pilots weren’t in a hurry.
“Oh God, the weather is great today. There isn’t even trace of wind. Ideal for flying…” A pilot joked with his comrades through the wireless communicator.
He spoke too soon!
All of a sudden, a huge gale sprung up, swallowing the clouds floating around Turtle Island!
At the same time, the sky over Turtle Island transformed entirely from black into a monstrous reddish brown!
A hurricane of Beaufort scale 12 appeared in an instant! Huge waves tens of meters in height crashed one after the other, like a restless predator rising from the sea in search of prey!
The red flag Ling Yun planted had been hurled away as stones exceeding a hundred kilograms rolled around like dust! The gale was incredibly strong!
This was, however, within Ling Yun’s expectations. The stones he had chosen for the spell formation were at least two hundred kilograms and were still firmly in place.
“Oh my god! What’s happening? Oh my god, to hell with the weather forecast! Shit, it’s over, it’s totally over!” The pilot who was just praising the weather screamed in shock!
It wasn’t just him. There were more than a dozen planes in the air, all of which shook and were blown away by the hurricane. Even the most experienced pilots couldn’t control the planes!
“Boom!” A helicopter slammed into a steep cliff and exploded instantly. It fell into the sea, engulfed in a ball of fire!
Even the American aircraft carrier, The Chick, started to sway. Luckily, it was like an island of its own, able to withstand waves of this level.
However, the color left the faces of the American naval officers. They were confident in their mastery over weather prediction, but their beliefs were now shaken!
The American Navy went into disarray, desperately trying to resist the towering waves. The only calm officers were on board The Chick, desperately commanding the helicopters to find somewhere to land!
Except, this was the open sea, and the only land in sight was a rocky island! Where in hell could they land?
“Boom!” Another helicopter was sacrificed and swallowed up by the sea without hesitation.
Tokugawa Takeo and Yusei Yanagi knew the situation wasn’t in their favor, so they jumped out from the helicopters. Jumping from a height of tens of meters was a piece of cake to them.
Tokugawa Takeo kicked away a boulder blown in his direction by the gale. His face darkened. “Baka! What’s going on here? What dark magic is the Huaxia practitioner casting?”
In a strange turn of events, they lost two helicopters and elite American soldiers! They hadn’t even begun their search for him!
Nothing could be done for the planes in the air. “Fortunately our ninjas took the speedboats! They have successfully infiltrated the island. That Huaxia practitioner must be running for his life right now!” Tokugawa Takeo said with a hint of bitterness.
A dozen shrieks traveled into his ear before he could finish. More than a dozen Japanese ninjas were injured by boulders! Some of them were spitting blood, not knowing what hit them!
Of course, that was the Myriad Nine Slaughter Formation laid down by Ling Yun earlier on. Once inside, the lower realm ninjas were as good as useless. They were seriously injured by the huge rocks that came flying at them.
Both Tokugawa Takeo and Yusei Yanagi were taken aback. “This… This is a Huaxia spell formation! That’s not good, let’s go and save them!”
They exchanged knowing glances, quickly rushing to the first Myriad Nine Slaughter Formation!
The masked Ling Yun and Little White were watching quietly in the small valley. A broad grin crept up Ling Yun’s face as he saw the helicopters swinging wildly and heard the cries of the skilled Japanese ninjas.
I’ll kill half of you without lifting a finger! Ling Yun thought to himself haughtily.
The reddish-brown sky seemed to hang directly above their heads, giving off a sense of oppression. All of a sudden, the clouds began to gather and spin, as though it was a huge vortex at sea.
It was many times more terrifying than the Waterspout!
Silver snakes of lighting materialized in the reddish-brown sky and were sucked into the vortex. The vortex seemed to generate power from the lighting and spun more urgently!
The spiritual energy of the surrounding few hundred miles was chaotic! The silver snakes twisted and turned in the vortex, entwining and finally combining as one!
The vortex stopped spinning eventually and became a huge cloud bearing the lightning for the tribulation!
However, there was no thunder to be heard.
Ling Yun knew that the lightning for Bai Xianer’s tribulation would strike imminently.
“Xian Er, I can’t be of any more help. If I were to stay together with you physically, the heavens would take it as me overcoming the tribulation as well. The lightning would strike me as well…”
“Don’t worry, Master. Xian Er is not afraid!” Bai Xianer said seriously with a pair of eyes that had never been so steady.
Ling Yun gave Bai Xianer all the Lightning Trap Talismans, Gold Talismans, and Defense Talismans he had in his possession. He then brought out the mysterious gourd!
“Drink! Drink as much as you can and persevere until the cloud dissipates! Use the high-level talisman charms last. Xian Er, remember, you have to return to the center of the two Xiantian Eight Trigrams at the end of the tribulation! ”
The last strike would also be the most powerful strike. All would be for naught if she couldn’t survive it. Ling Yun repeated, worried that she might forget.
Ling Yun knew that Bai Xianer wasn’t able to lift the mysterious gourd. He just poured the dragon saliva directly into her delicate mouth.
“Oh my god, what’s happening?”
Everyone stopped in their tracks and stared at the cloud above Turtle Island. The scary force of nature struck a natural fear in their hearts, and many found themselves unable to breathe!
Bai Xianer drank her fill, her body instantly energized by the potent Dragon Spiritual Energy from the dragon saliva. She looked up again at the cloud, her confidence even higher!
“Baka! That fox has three tails! Why does a white fox have three tails? And why is it so huge?”
A Xiantian Realm Level Two martial artist pointed in horror at Bai Xianer, attracting everyone’s attention!
“Concentrate on your tribulation! I’m going on a killing spree!” Ling Yun said lightly before turning his head sharply in the direction of Tokugawa Takeo and Yusei Yanagi.
“Xian Er, you will definitely succeed!” Ling Yun gave a final push to Bai Xianer with telepathy. He was already more than a hundred meters away from her!
Ling Yun had done all he could for Bai Xianer. Lightning would strike soon, and in Ling Yun’s experience, it would encompass an area of at least a hundred meters.
The hurricane stopped as suddenly as it appeared!
“Boom boom boom… Kacha!”
Silver lightning in the shape of a snake fell onto Bai Xianer’s body!
Bai Xianer’s face froze in pain, but she withstood the first strike!
“Kacha! Kacha! Kacha! Kacha!”
The strikes were in succession. Finally, a blinding rain of electricity ensued! It covered a radius of a hundred meters, connecting heaven and earth! Little White was in the center of it!
Ling Yun was more than four hundred meters away from Little White at this point in time, the black Devil’s Blade ready in his hand. He slaughtered his enemies without any mercy!
The black blade added another color to the scenery. Blood-red rain, severed limbs, and the cries of ninjas filled the air. None of them could counter Ling Yun!
“Ah…” Bai Xianer could no longer hold back her scream!
Ling Yun stole a concerned look at Bai Xianer, and his mouth twitched with heartache. He turned back to his battle again due to a warning from his Yin-Yang Eye. It was an attack directly from a Japanese ninja of Xiantian Realm Level Two!
“The Blade That Severs Heaven and Earth!”
The cleanly sliced upper torso of the ninja flew off without making a sound!
The rain of electricity finally started moving. Little White couldn’t bear to take another direct hit. She activated the Nine Star Studded Flash and galloped around instinctively on the island!
“Run in the direction of the enemy!” Bai Xianer might be hurting badly from the wounds she had received, but she firmly remembered Ling Yun’s words. She ran in the opposite direction of where Ling Yun was!
How big was Turtle Island? It was only 1.5 kilometers wide. Bai Xianer successfully took out more than ten ninjas in a few hundred meters!
The ninjas were of a much lower realm than Little White. They were pulverized by the lightning — nothing remained.
“Baka! That’s a demon! It’s going through its tribulation!”
Tokugawa Takeo was from the Tokugawa Clan, which possessed some knowledge of the matter. He finally understood what was happening!
“That took you long enough, but it’s too late!”
Ling Yun wagged his finger at Tokugawa Takeo, his voice filled with contempt!
