Chapter 266: Thunder Tribulation

Tian Xu also reacted, this is a precursor to someone who is about to cross the tribulation! Looking around, there is no one else here except Dao Tong, who is about to cross the tribulation.

As a party concerned, the feeling in Daotong's heart is even stronger. He stopped reciting the Heart Sutra and saluted to Tian Xuheshi and said: "Amitabha! The poor monk thanks Master Tian for his enlightenment, the calamity of the little monk has now arrived, and the poor monk has the courage to ask Master Tian to retreat to the outside of the clouds to salute. ”

Tian Xu stretched out his right hand, holding two small green bamboo tubes in his palm, handed them to Daotong, and said, "For the tribulation, although I am the first to say the truth, I have no way to actually help you. Here are ten Great Qi Replenishing Pills, and one Concentration Pill, which may be useful to you. We can't stay here for long, you can rest assured to meet the thunder tribulation, don't worry about the things around, Ziyan and I will protect the law for you. As he spoke, he flashed in place with purple smoke and instantly withdrew more than a mile away.

The reason why Tian Xu did his best to help Daotong was entirely due to the kindness he sensed from Daotong's heart. This is an indescribable intuition, maybe it originated from the "Heart Sutra" that Daotong was influenced by Xu Jingyi, or maybe it was something else, but it made Tian Xu full of good feelings for this fat monk who had been an enemy of Xu Jingyi and only met for the third time.

At this time, the clouds above Daotong's head gradually took shape, becoming denser and denser, and gradually had the potential to cover the sky and the sun.

Tian Xu did not simply watch from the sidelines, he spread out the olfactory image, covering the surrounding sea surface for more than ten kilometers, monitoring any movement in this area, and wholeheartedly protecting the Daotong.

The sea was empty and all the details were unobstructed, so there was nothing to worry about. But Tian Xu's intuition made him more cautious and cautious, he always felt that something unexpected was about to happen, and he was a little uneasy.

"What's the problem?" Tian Xu's instincts would not deceive him, and he switched his olfactory imaging to inverted color mode and carefully scanned the surroundings, but still found nothing.

The calamity clouds were even thicker, which had already made it difficult for his olfactory imaging to penetrate, and the range covered by the calamity clouds had increased to nearly three kilometers, which had exceeded the range of the calamity clouds when Xu Jingyi and the Great Elder of the Demon Gate had crossed the tribulation, and began to develop deep into the sky.

"The scope of this cloud tribulation is so large, could it be that Daotong's thunder tribulation is even larger than Aunt Xu's? I don't know what determines the intensity of this thunder tribulation. The question flashed in Tian Xu's heart, and he retreated nearly a kilometer with purple smoke again, or it was safer to stay away from some.

Tian Xu's heart moved: "Could it be that there is something abnormal in the sky?" He let Ziyan stay in place, the flying formation under his feet was activated, and his body shot up into the sky, flying straight to a height of more than 10,000 meters, and his body crossed the clouds that were still developing towards a high place, but he didn't find anything abnormal.

High in the air, his gaze turned, and suddenly he noticed something that he had been ignoring all along, and that was the vast sea below: "It should be under the surface of the sea!" he quickly made a judgment.

The clouds of calamity are becoming more and more condensed, and the violent thunder tribulation is coming, and Tian Xu has no time to delay. He urged the flying formation, increased his speed to the maximum, and under the bonus of gravity, his body was head-to-foot, swooping down from a height of 10,000 meters, and rushing straight to the vast sea below.

The high speed brought with it a huge air resistance, acting on his shoulders, and he did not hesitate to call out the fairing he used for swimming to slow down the drag and increase his speed.

Rising to an altitude of 10,000 meters, Tian Xu took a little more than two minutes, and rushing down from the sky, it only took him less than half a minute to complete. At a distance of about two kilometers from the sea, his speed had exceeded the speed of sound. When the sound barrier was breached, the noise from the violent friction between his fairing and the air was transmitted downward at the same speed as his body, and was rapidly accumulated and spread in all directions. The accumulated vibrations caused the moisture in the air to condense into a mist, expanding in a circle, and his body passed through the middle of the circular white mist, which was a spectacle.

When he reached the surface of the sea, Tian Xu modified the front end of the fairing from a sharp shape like a fighter jet to a relatively blunt parabola. A sharp fairing can minimize resistance in the air, but the density of water is much greater than that of air, and a sharp fairing will bring huge lateral pressure, which can easily deform and affect the speed and direction of progress. The smoother parabolic fairing evenly distributes the lateral pressure over the entire surface of the fairing, and the fairing is structurally much stronger and can better cope with the enormous pressure underwater.

It can be said that at the moment of entering the water, Tian Xu changed from flying at high speed in the air to a ** that is more suitable for high-speed underwater progress, crossing a curved arc trajectory under the water surface and diving straight to the bottom of the thunder tribulation. The powerful rectifier formation minimized the impact of entering the water, and coupled with Tian Xu's own powerful body strengthened by the Sun Chasing Jue, he perfectly withstood the huge impact that could smash the metal into flat pieces without any damage.

Before entering the water, he used his divine sense to send out a thought to Ziyan and Daotong at the same time: "Float to the air above 100 meters, be careful of underwater attacks." There was no reason for the two of them to believe in Tian Xu, and after hearing the message from him, they rose up separately.

There was no problem with the purple smoke rising, but Daotong was directly below the calamity cloud, and the calamity cloud had condensed like a substance at this time, pressing dozens of meters above Daotong's head. Daotong's figure rose upward, and in the blink of an eye, he was about to burrow into this cloud of calamity.

The tremendous coercion emitted by the clouds shrouded Daotong's head, stopping his ascent, so that the flying formation he borrowed from the purple smoke was also suppressed, unable to raise him further.

But it doesn't make sense. The Heart Sutra in his mouth was chanting non-stop, and as soon as his mind moved, a piece of sea water was taken up from under his feet, forming a huge column of water with a diameter of less than one meter, which held up his feet and held him up steadily. The column of water rose higher and higher, lifting him up to a height of 100 meters.

The clouds above Daotong's head couldn't stop him from rising, but they didn't let him get into it, so they slowly rose as he ascended, always a few dozen meters above his head.

At this time, a short "Heart Sutra" has been recited by Daotong several times, and this time it has been recited to the end of the "Prajna Mantra": "Revealing the Truth of the Bodhisattva Bodhisattva!" The eighteen-character mantra was sent out of his mouth in one go, like a short chain of beads, piercing straight into the clouds.

The cloud was stimulated by the spell, and the thick middle part was pierced upward, and the cloud rolled to form a huge ring like a smoke ring exhaled while smoking. At this moment, from the surrounding of the circular "smoke ring", a network of lightning swooped down, shrouding Daotong underneath, like a huge net sprinkled from the heavens, as if to catch Daotong's small fish.

The lightning net gradually merged as it fell, and finally merged into one when it reached the top of Daotong's head less than ten meters and fell towards the top of his head. The path of the lightning light lingered briefly in the air, making the thunder look like a great net that led to the clouds in the sky.

At this time, Daotong also happened to react to this lightning, his right hand was raised high, and his five fingers were stretched out, facing the lightning that was rushing in his face, this posture happened to be strikingly similar to the action of sprinkling the net, making his image of sprinkling the net to capture the clouds more realistic.

Daotong's grasp is a trick he realized from Buddhism after leaving Wutai Mountain, which he named "Silence Grab", which can be attacked and defended, and has become his stunt.

The lightning was bright and dazzling, but Daotong's hand was dull and dull, as hellish as hell. The lightning that snaked down was caught by him, all fell into the palm of this hand, and with the sound of his recitation of the Heart Sutra, the five fingers were closed, and the lightning was caught by him in the back and annihilated invisible. Only a small arc of electricity slipped between his fingers, then dispersed into a net, sliding down the surface of his body into the column of water beneath his feet.

The bare skin on Daotong's arms, as well as the monk's robes on his body, formed scorched black marks wherever the net-like lightning slashed, showing the power of the thunderous rage.

The lightning was extinguished by Daotong, and the thunder that should have accompanied the lightning was gone, except for the ugly arc sound of "swishing" when the aftermath of lightning flowed through his body, which was extremely strange.

Lightning continued to fall, and in the blink of an eye, the fifth bombardment ended. The five lightning bolts were all caught and extinguished by Daotong one by one without exception, but his right arm and the monk's robe on his body had been burned black, and the skin on his arm had been curled and cracked, almost out of shape. But the seemingly ordinary monk's robe on his body was still intact, not shattered by charring, and I don't know what special material it was made of.

The sixth lightning fell again, Daotong's right hand was scorched, and he could no longer grasp the "Silence Grasp", the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he stretched out his left hand to complete the grasp instead of his right hand.

But Daotong's right shoulder joint also seems to have a problem, and it is still raised high and can no longer fall. His raised right arm had an effect on his left hand to cast the Silence Grasp, causing more lightning to leak out this time than the previous ones, and almost all of them were concentrated on his right hand, which was still there. The right arm, which had been charred, exploded in half with a bang under this lightning strike, and only half of the upper arm was still there.

Daotong didn't care about the destroyed right arm, and the sound of reciting the Heart Sutra in his mouth did not fluctuate. He raised his left hand upward, wholeheartedly preparing for the next round of thunderstorms.

The thunderstorm was also unmoved by all this, and the seventh and eighth thunderstorms did not stop in the slightest, and rained down again from the large smoke ring in the air.
