Chapter 810: Triple Tribulation And Bloodline Awakening
“Come over here!” Lin Wu ordered.
“Senior?” Shirong quickly picked up on what was happening and followed Lin Wu’s words. “Is it time for it?” he asked.
“Yes. The first beast has already triggered its tribulation. The other two will soon. I’ve blocked the heavenly tribulation for the beast and will release it when the other two beasts are ready too.” Lin Wu replied.
“Blocked the heavenly tribulation?” Shirong said in disbelief.
He looked up at the sky that was filled with dark clouds, but had no signs of there being an impending heavenly tribulation. One must know that a heavenly tribulation was greatly different from a thunderstorm even if they might look similar.
Especially for cultivators, they could sense the oppressive might of the heavenly tribulation. It was unnerving and would make everyone restless. Weaker cultivators would even faint from it sometimes.
While those that were unfortunate might get a Qi deviation too!
But Shirong could not sense any of that from the sky right now.
He gazed back at Lin Wu and felt awed.
“Senior’s powers are truly profound!” Shirong praised and cupped his hands.
“Leave this for later, just go and stand in the circle there. That’s the crux of the Tribulation attenuation formation array. I’ll channel the fractions of the lightning to you there when all three tribulations are ready.” Lin Wu explained.
“Yes, Senior!” Shirong hurriedly did as Lin Wu said.
Upon entering the circle, he could feel his skin touching some kind of membrane. It was invisible and yet firm.
Shirong also looked at the runes that were inscribed into the ground and couldn’t help but feel amazed.
‘I don’t think I’ve seen such runes before… this is far more complicated than the tribulation attenuation formation array we have at the clan.’ Shirong thought.
Sitting down in the circle, Shirong checked out the rest of the formation array. It had six vertices, all joining to form a hexagon. He was currently at the very center of the hexagon, while Lin Wu was a little off-center from it.
Then there was a beast that was sitting in one of the vertices.
“What beast is that?” Shirong wondered.
He could tell that the beast was definitely linked with Lin Wu since it had the emerald green crystal on its body too. Or more accurately, it was the beast’s mandibles that were crystalline.
‘Its aura is also similar to the other servants that Senior has. This must be a new servant then.’ Shirong thorough.
In his stay here in the forest, Shirong had learned a few things.
One of them being the different ranking of the beasts that had come into being. At the lowest tier were the common animals that had no cultivation base. Above that were beasts at the body tempering realm and above them, the rest of the beasts according to the cultivation bases.
But above this cultivation ranking, there were some beasts with special rankings.
These were none other than the beasts that were close to Lin Wu.
In this separate ranking, the lowermost were beasts that had joined the ‘Emeraldine Legion’ and had been ‘blessed’ by Lin Wu. They weren’t necessarily direct servants of Lin Wu either and might just work under the other beasts that were under Lin Wu.
Then above this were the former kings of the Millennium forest, with the Twin Lights Liger King at the top.
And above them, were Lin Wu’s personal servants, with the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk Ape at the very top.
Shirong could also tell that even among the servant beasts, they had different capabilities and intelligence levels. The Monk Ape was certainly the smartest he had seen and was basically like any other senior that Shirong had met.
Currently, the beast had a higher cultivation base than Shirong and he was also older than him, thus calling him senior was not an issue either.
“Ruling over so many powerful beasts is not simple… it might even be more complex than ruling over humans. After all, beasts have different desires and thoughts.” Shirong pondered to himself.
‘And senior doesn’t just rule over beasts either… he has humans under him now too.’ Shirong recalled.
~SHUA~
And just as he was thinking this, Shirong felt spirit Qi fluctuations coming from a corner. He looked towards it and saw another beast appearing there.
This beast was none other than the Emeraldine Barren Tail Wolf.
The beast looked far more fierce that’s the Cicada beast and had a sharp expression its face.
~SCREECH~
Lin Wu seemingly said something to the beast in their tongue and the wolf beast went and sat in one of the vertices as well.
~RUMBLE~
A few moments later, the peal of thunder could be heard high above.
“Here it comes,” Shirong said as he looked up at the sky expectantly.
“Oh no, you don’t!” Lin Wu spread the control of his innate skill further and the tribulation lightning that had just started to appear was snuffed out easily.
Shirong’s eyes went wide as he witnessed it all firsthand.
“This… not even ancestor can do something like this… it’s not just about cultivation base anymore… this is above that…” Shirong was left speechless.
He knew just how dangerous it was to interfere with a tribulation. Even if someone was at the Dao Treading realm or even the immortal Ascension realm, they could be hurt by tribulation lightning.
And if they tried to do anything during one, they might be stuck with punishment tribulation lightning. While there were certain skills and formation arrays that could restrain or suppress a tribulation, they didn’t even come a single step closer to what Lin Wu had done.
Those skills were often very flashy and eye-catching. But Lin Wu’s was very low-key. Merely a gesture and the heavens were silenced!
A few minutes later, Shirong got to see it all again as the third beast was also summoned by Lin Wu.
~RUMBLE~
Lin Wu pressured the tribulation again and controlled the array.
“Okay, I’m activating the array, all of you get ready!” He warned.
