Chapter 331: Lightning Tribulation II



331 Lightning Tribulation II

\"WAIT!\"

Alex was startled to hear Mithra's shout from the side. He glanced at her while trying to keep his focus on the lightning strike.

\"It is not enough. Use your last attack first to weaken the lightning before using the array!\" Mithra shouted.

Alex was dumbfounded when he heard her words. He could not understand her as he usually used the Lightning Rod Array to block the ninth wave. But this time, she said the Lightning Rod Array could not block this strike. It truly perplexed him.

Alex did not overthink as he tried to trust her in this. There was nothing wrong if he used his attack first to weaken the lightning strike. So, Alex decided to follow her advice.

Fire started covering both of his sword and spear again. He swung both of them at the same time, creating a cross Sword Wave.

\"Seven Stars Cut.\"

The sword wave flew toward the lightning strike. It gave birth to a shockwave that even made Alex frown. Alex was startled to see the lightning strike's real power despite having seen the energy contained in the lightning strike with his Spirit Eyes.

He always used the Lightning Rod Array to block this strike, so he never thought about this strike deeply. But, when he finally confronted it head-on, he finally realized how strong the lightning strike was.

But Alex still could not understand why she wanted him to attack it first before using his Lightning Rod Array to block it. After all, the Lightning Rod Array would channel it to the ground and disperse it. It should pose no problem.

The clash between his Seven Stars Cut and the lightning strike was still ongoing. Alex could see the energy in his Seven Stars Cut was draining bit by bit. Although the lightning strike also got a little bit damage from his Seven Stars Cut.

The sword wave only managed to exhaust around half of its entire power before Alex's Seven Stars Cut got destroyed by the lightning strike.

He immediately activated his Lightning Rod Array the moment his Seven Stars Cut was destroyed.

The Lightning Rod Array started accumulating the lightning and dispersed it to the ground. Alex tried to maintain the array as hard as he could.

He did not know that the lightning had this much power before receiving it personally with his Seven Stars Cut. He finally realized how much he relied on this Lightning Rod Array.

\"Crack-!\"

\"!!!\" Alex was startled when he felt that the Lightning Rod Array cracked. It was the first time he saw something like this.

In his previous Lightning Tribulation, he used this Lightning Rod Array to store the lightning without channeling it to the ground and make it rampage. With that, he was able to kill many monsters.

But this time, he kept channeling the lightning to the ground without storing it. To think the Lightning strike managed to crack it, this made his heart skipped a beat.

He remembered Mithra said it was not enough. Although he did not understand the reason earlier, he immediately realized it after watching this.

If he did not weaken the lightning with his attack earlier, the array would break, and he would need to redo this strike.

And the worst thing was he needed to do it without the help of Lightning Rod Array. It will take him much more energy than he was supposed to.

He was truly thankful to Mithra for warning him about this. Although Alex wanted to thank her for this time, after repelling the ninth strike. Sadly, he could not.

The sky that was dark just now suddenly turned into golden color. It was not because of the dark cloud becoming golden or whatsoever, it was because the golden lightning had appeared, and it was shining brightly.

Mithra, who was watching this for the first time, immediately cursed inwardly. 'Holy Sh*t.'

This was the first time she saw something like golden lightning. She finally understood the real reason why Alex wanted to finish his Lightning Tribulation in this place. If he did this somewhere else and spotted by other people, he would be targeted.

Of course, she did not know that Alex had been targeted, and luckily, Maxwell had fended them off.

Finishing his tribulation in this place was because he wanted to be more careful, so no other people tried to grasp him for this.

'Monster… No, a monster is an understatement… Ah, what kind of being is he… I can't even describe him... let just say he is a freak.' Mithra was complaining inside as she kept recalling there was no trace of golden lightning even in the oldest historical book.

Mithra wanted to curse the golden lightning and Alex, but she was also thankful. On the last day of her life, she managed to see something this ridiculous. At least, she did not regret staying here for a few thousand years since she could see something like this.

She understood that there was a sky above the sky. There was Alex's talent above Maxwell's.

Although she wanted to be happy with this, she could not. The problem was still there, and Alex needed to receive this Lightning Strike. She understood how much power that the golden lightning had. Because of that, she was worried.

\"Attack with your other attack first and do that intents fusion or whatever,\" Mithra said, trying to give him advice that even she was unsure. After all, she did not know whether that fusion would be able to destroy this lightning strike.

Alex's attack was indeed powerful, but compared to this strike, it still fell short.

Sadly, she did not know anything about Alex's Sword Mastery and Spear Mastery. By using it once, Alex could grasp the true extent of that fusion, albeit barely. But it was enough for him to level it up a little bit.

Alex heard about her advice and nodded.

\"Immovable Step.\"

\"Spear Throwing Art. Spin Throwing.\"

\"Fire Phoenix Art, First Stage. Phoenix Summon.\"

\"Boom Boom Boom!\" The lightning was crazily destroying his attack again and again.

Alex did not mind about it since he managed to repel around thirty percent of the lightning strike.

He covered his sword with Sword Intent and Spear Intent. He fused them in a matter of seconds before covering it with his flame.

Although he might be able to come up with a stronger power if he also used his spear, he was still unsure whether he could do it or not. So, he chose to throw his spear to weaken the lightning.

After all, even at the battle between him and Mithra, he only did this strike with his sword. Having a Sword Mastery and Spear Mastery did not guarantee him to be able to use it again on the spot, so he decided not to take the risk.

He took a deep breath before swinging his sword.

\"Seven Stars Cut.\"

The sword was blazing at a very high temperature. But it still retained the sharpness of a sword and a spear.

They clashed with each other, sending a huge shock wave to the entire realm. Mithra was frowning when she watched this as she did not know which one would win in this exchange.

Alex also prepared for another attack once again in case this one failed to destroy it. But he also felt a numb sensation in his hand that was still holding his sword.

The numb sensation did not come from the lightning, but it came from his Seven Stars Cut. It seemed after using that Seven Stars Cut, Alex could not use it again for a period of time.

He tried to channel his Sword Intent or his Spear Intent to the sword but to no avail. It must be because he had yet to master the fusion technique. So, for the time being, after finishing this tribulation, he would try to use this again but with his spear.

At least, it would give him another chance to use this powerful move until he mastered it and could use it again and again.

Still, this clash completely blew his mind. He never expected that this sword wave would become more powerful. He only needed to advance to Martial Lord before he could use seven layers Seven Stars Cut.

If he could do it, then he could say he had mastered the Seven Stars Cut. He was wondering if he did this with seven layers Seven Stars Cut, how strong would it be.

Sadly, he would not be able to do it for the time being since he would need to ask Song Yu about the box that Mithra gave to him.

She had warned him about it, but Alex decided to gamble for his future. He wanted to see whether Song Yu would fall to greed or not. If she did not, he would then be assured of leaving his back to her in the future.

The other reason was that she would be the only one who could recognize this thing. If she did not know about this, Alex would then ask Nelson and the others to search it through the continent.

He did not know what kind of benefit if he used it. Still, considering that Mithra was chased by many Martial Kings and Martial Emperors, it should be something great.

\"Boom!\"

The clash between them was finally over. Fortunately, both of them destroyed each other. The golden lightning shattered to pieces and burst out to every corner in the realm. It even put a crack on Maxwell's barrier.

The golden sparkle then fell slowly to the ground. And Alex finally got the same feeling where he needed to sit down and received some kind of inheritance.

Alex looked at Mithra while trying to hold back the feeling for a little longer.

\"I am sorry, Senior. I need to take this first.\" Alex said as he was worried about her after seeing the barrier would crumble soon.

\"Don't worry about me. I am still fine. Just do your best, and I will wait for you.\" She said.

She looked at the barrier that started cracking. Not only the outer barrier that was concealing the entire realm, the sphere barrier that separated the inner realm and outside world also started crumbling.

Alex was worried about her because of this. But even in this condition, she should still be fine for one day.

But truly, she was blessed to see something like this in her life from up close. She was sure that no one was able to see the golden lightning from up close like her. She looked at Alex and smiled.

There were only him and Mithra on the top of the mountain since his spirits were patrolling around.

They indeed worried about him, especially when they saw all of those lightning strikes. But they also knew that they could not help him because this was the only one that he needed to complete alone.

They did not want to ruin his chance because of their worries. They could only believe in him and kept patrolling. They did not dare to slack just one bit until Alex finished his tribulation.

Even Anna and Anya were biting their lips this entire time until blood fell from their mouth. It was such an intense exchange, and Alex truly did his best.

When Alex finally finished his Lightning Tribulation, they immediately cheered in joy. Even Anna and Anya hugged each other as they flew toward the top.

They saw Alex sitting in the ground while trying to comprehend what he got just like the last time. They were wondering what kind of blessing that he got this time.

Considering Alex got his spear ability in his first lightning tribulation and his sword ability in his second lightning tribulation, they were eager to see what kind of inheritance Alex got this time.

Of course, Mithra did not know about this. She only waited for him without thinking anything. She did not mind it because she had been doing something like this for thousands of years, so waiting a day was like blinking.

Mithra and the spirits were waiting for him calmly as they did not feel any fluctuation of energy around him. Yeah, all of it was fine before Alex suddenly screamed.

\"AAAHHHH!\"
