In a simulated life scenario, how do you defy fate and change your destiny every time?

Chapter 200 Fourth Lifetime: Wielding the Tribulation of Lightning, Acting as Heaven's Punisher!

"boom!"

The old ancestor of Baihe had just finished speaking.

The tightly closed main hall of the Northern Cold Sect suddenly burst open.

Upon hearing the sound, everyone turned to look.

A young man dressed in black robes walked out of the main hall and appeared in everyone's sight.

He was dressed in magnificent clothes, with his long robe decorated with gold and silver patterns depicting mountains, trees, the sun, moon, and stars, which made him appear even more extraordinary.

He himself had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, a majestic aura, and his eyes were as vast as the sky, cold and indifferent, without any emotion!

All the cultivators present had complex expressions upon seeing this person, with a hint of awe flashing in their eyes.

Ye Chen!

The number one prodigy in the Southern Region, and the current leader of the Northern Cold Sect.

At only sixty years old, he successfully stepped into the Nascent Soul realm, and is expected to become the strongest person in the Southern Region within a hundred years!

Although for ordinary people, sixty years is equivalent to a lifetime for many.

But for cultivators with long lifespans, a mere sixty years is nothing more than fleeting moments.

Since he began cultivating, Ye Chen's strength has advanced by leaps and bounds. In just a few decades, he has grown from a muddle-headed mortal boy into a powerful Nascent Soul cultivator who leads a major sect.

This alone demonstrates the extraordinary nature of his talent.

Ye Chen himself is a legendary figure known to every household in the entire Southern Region.

The moment he appeared, he immediately became the focus of the entire event!

"A Nascent Soul cultivator at only thirty? You have quite the talent, but you shouldn't have attacked Ye Mo and Yun Mingzi, and you certainly shouldn't have provoked my Northern Cold Sect!"

Ye Chen stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at Lu Yuan with an air of domineering arrogance and power.

Although Yun Mingzi was nominally his master, he had only introduced him to the Northern Cold Sect, and there was no deep affection between them.

As for that good-for-nothing Ye Mo, although he is related to him by blood...

But cultivators emphasize severing ties with the mortal world and cutting off all emotions and desires. So, a mere useless younger brother is no big deal once he dies.

However, one should consider the owner before beating a dog.

Lu Yuan has repeatedly provoked me. If I don't punish him severely, he will only make outsiders think that I am weak and easy to bully!
"Ye Chen, Fellow Daoist Fudu, let us join forces to slay this fiend!"

The White River Ancestor said in a deep voice, deciding to end the battle quickly.

Today is the succession ceremony of the leader of the Northern Cold Sect. If Lu Yuan continues to act recklessly, it will only make the entire sect lose face!

"He's nothing but a clown trying to attract attention; why would the two patriarchs need to intervene?"

As Ye Chen spoke, he took a step out into the air.

"boom!"

He stood in the void, as if he were one with the entire world.

at the same time.

An invisible domain spread rapidly outwards from him, covering an area of ​​hundreds of miles in all directions.

At this moment.

Whether it is a Core Formation cultivator or not.

Every cultivator within this area trembled and stood speechless.

They felt a sense of helplessness, as if they had completely lost control of their bodies and couldn't even blink.

It was as if life and death were already in Ye Chen's hands, entirely at his whim!
Harmony between heaven and humanity, the master of all living beings.

This is the extraordinary skill of a Nascent Soul cultivator!

Even the sect leader Huiming looked at Ye Chen with a horrified expression and disbelief.

With the help of the patriarch of the Medicine Buddha Sect, he barely stepped into the Nascent Soul realm. He originally thought that although his strength was not as good as Ye Chen's, it was not much worse.

After all, he had been immersed in the Nascent Soul realm for hundreds of years, and his foundation was undoubtedly profound.

But when he truly faced Ye Chen and felt the immense gap between them, he finally understood just how terrifying the talent of this top genius of the Southern Region was!
Both Master Qingxu and the patriarch of the Giant Sword Pavilion felt the terrifying power and their expressions turned serious, no longer as relaxed and carefree as before.

Both Lu Yuan and Ye Chen displayed such extraordinary talent that they could dominate an era.

Under their brilliant light.

As a result, many of the older generation of strong individuals felt a sense of urgency, as if time was running out and heroes were growing old.

The battle between Lu Yuan and Ye Chen is the most spectacular and earth-shattering battle in thousands of years!

This battle will not only determine the life and death of the Northern Cold Sect, but will also determine the changes in the power structure of all forces in the Southern Region!
"Lu Yuan, you are arrogant and conceited, repeatedly provoking my Northern Cold Sect. But you don't know that there are always people more powerful than you. Today, I will show you what a true Nascent Soul cultivator is like!"

Ye Chen's voice was as loud as a bell, and his words carried the weight of imperial authority.

With each word uttered, thunder roared across the heavens and earth.

As soon as he finished speaking, the sky above the Northern Cold Sect was already shrouded in rolling thunder.

The wind howled, lightning flashed, and it was a scene of apocalypse!
The sea of ​​lightning surged, emanating a terrifying pressure. All the cultivators felt a weight on their shoulders, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on them, making it hard for them to breathe.

And this was merely a trace of the power of heaven and earth that Ye Chen had unintentionally released.

If he did it intentionally.

In an instant, it would be enough to crush a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator into a pulp!
Looking at the dark sky filled with lightning and thunder, everyone trembled with fear and dared not even breathe.

A Nascent Soul cultivator can entrust their primordial spirit to the Heavenly Dao; as long as a wisp of their divine soul remains, they will be immortal!

Besides.

There is also a small number of Nascent Soul cultivators with profound cultivation and astonishing talent, who can act on behalf of Heaven according to their own will.

The method Ye Chen is now displaying is clearly the power of words to become law, and to punish on behalf of Heaven!

"To be able to make one's words come true immediately after breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage—such talent is truly awe-inspiring."

All the Nascent Soul stage experts present sighed upon witnessing this scene.

Don’t say anything else.

With just Ye Chen's effortless ability to trigger the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, he was enough to rank among the top three combatants in the Southern Region!
Even the Venerable Ancestor Fudu, who has cultivated for over a thousand years, might not be his match!
The remaining disciples of the Northern Cold Sect looked at Ye Chen standing proudly in the void with fanatical eyes, as if they were worshipping the god they believed in.

Lu Yuan, however, remained unmoved and indifferent throughout.

"Is this the strength of the number one genius in the Southern Region? If this is all you've got, then you might as well die!"

Lu Yuan sneered disdainfully.

Faced with the roaring sea of ​​lightning, he not only did not retreat, but instead stomped his right foot on the ground and soared into the sky, heading straight for Ye Chen!

at the same time.

He activated the Supreme Immortal Embryo Gu, and the surging divine power in his sea of ​​consciousness, like a river bursting its banks, condensed in mid-air into a divine transformation dharma image.

This Dharma image is a thousand feet tall, with dazzling divine light and a mysterious Daoist aura flowing around it.

When it appears, the whole world falls silent!
So what if words become law, or what if one replaces the will of Heaven?
Ultimately, it all comes down to relying on the power of heaven and earth.

Lu Yuanwei's strength comes from within himself; he walks a path where he is invincible.

Without relying on any external aids, one can break free from constraints and transcend limitations solely through one's own strength!

The Dharma image followed Lu Yuan and charged straight towards Ye Chen.

Wherever you go.

The sea of ​​thunder surged backward, the lightning dissipated, all laws fell silent, and even the divine chains of order formed by the laws of heaven and earth could not stop him even a step!

"Bang!" To everyone's disbelief, Lu Yuan stood atop the sea of ​​lightning, trampling all the laws of heaven and earth in this space under his feet.

The immortals fell silent, and all of heaven and earth was still.

Only Lu Yuan radiated a dazzling divine light, exuding an aura of invincibility and dominance!
"puff!"

As the sea of ​​lightning dissipated, a trace of blood spilled from Ye Chen's lips, forcing him to exit the state of oneness with nature.

His face was pale, and his once strong aura had weakened considerably, as if he had suffered some kind of severe injury.

"How is this possible? Lord Ye Chen is actually injured?"

Those disciples of the Northern Cold Sect who regarded Ye Chen as a god all stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

It should be noted that since Ye Chen began cultivating, he has always defeated his opponents with overwhelming force and has never suffered a defeat.

According to their ideas.

Once Lord Ye Chen emerges from seclusion, he will surely use swift and decisive methods to forcefully suppress and kill Lu Yuan, this clown.

But who knows.

Not only did Lu Yuan not die, but in their eyes, the almost invincible Lord Ye Chen was at a disadvantage.
As for the other Foundation Establishment and Core Formation cultivators with low strength, they were also completely confused and had no idea what had just happened.

In their view.

Lu Yuan and Ye Chen were only exchanging blows from a distance; they hadn't even officially clashed yet. So how did Ye Chen get injured?

Can someone like this really be called the number one genius in the Southern Region?

Only a few knowledgeable Nascent Soul experts and those powerful Nascent Soul cultivators understood what had just happened.

Once a cultivator reaches the Nascent Soul stage, they can mobilize the power of heaven and earth for their own use with just a few gestures.

Therefore, powerful cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage do not need to resort to physical combat like lower-level cultivators; they can determine the victor solely through their Dao techniques.

This is a battle of divine will, and even more so, a clash of wills.

It may seem simple and easy, but it is actually many times more dangerous than close combat.

The slightest carelessness could result in severe injury, death, and even the loss of one's life!

Judging from the situation on the battlefield...

Ye Chen had clearly been defeated in the previous exchange.

"I originally thought Ye Chen was already a peerless genius, but I never expected that Lu Yuan's talent would surpass Ye Chen's!"

Baihe Laozu sighed deeply.

Even though Lu Yuan was the mortal enemy of the Northern Cold Sect, he couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration and appreciation for him.

Those who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage are all exceptionally talented individuals.

The number of geniuses that Old Ancestor Baihe has seen over the years is countless, like carp crossing a river.

But he had never seen a prodigy with such monstrous talent as Lu Yuan in all his thousands of years of life!

Thinking of these things, Old Ancestor Baihe's gaze grew even colder.

"If this child is not eliminated, our Northern Cold Sect will never have a day of peace!"

"Fellow Daoist Fudu, join me in this attack!"

At this point.

He no longer cared about bullying the weak, or about the face and image of the Northern Cold Sect.

After all, Lu Yuan's growth rate was too astonishing. Even if it cost him everything, he would keep him here forever!

"kill!"

After a moment's hesitation, the old ancestor Fudu's gaze hardened once more.

He has already bound himself to the Northern Cold Sect. If he retreats now, all his previous efforts and sacrifices will be in vain!

"Whoo~"

With a flick of his hand, Ancestor Fudu unleashed countless ants, insects, and venomous snakes from his storage bag, shooting towards Lu Yuan.

However, what's strange is that...

These ants, insects, and venomous snakes had barely touched Lu Yuan when their bodies exploded, turning into a rain of blood.

"Gulu! Guru!"

The rain of blood was like boiling magma, constantly bubbling.

Upon closer inspection, one can find countless fragments of ants and insects floating in the viscous blood.

This is precisely the signature technique of Patriarch Fudu: Ten Thousand Poisons Blood Fiend!
These bloodstains contain extremely potent poison; even a Nascent Soul cultivator who comes into contact with just a drop will instantly have their flesh and blood melt away, turning into a pool of pus!
If a Nascent Soul cultivator is corroded by blood, he will be seriously injured and his strength will be greatly reduced!

the other side.

Ancestor Baihe also made hand seals and activated the sect's grand formation, drawing in all the cold air from within a radius of ten thousand miles and condensing it into a giant hand that reached for the sky, grabbing at Lu Yuan.

That giant hand blotted out the sky and was filled with sealing power.

The mere wisp of cold air sent all the cultivators into a state of utter disarray, as if their blood had frozen in their veins.

This giant hand was formed from the extreme cold power accumulated over thousands of years across the entire ice field.

Especially under the activation of the formation by the White River Ancestor.

Not only is it terrifyingly powerful, but it also has the ability to imprison heaven and earth.

Once grabbed by the giant hand, even a Nascent Soul cultivator would be temporarily frozen into an ice sculpture!

Ahead lay a rain of deadly poison, above stood a colossal hand reaching for the sky, and behind him, Ye Chen once again activated his divine sense, replacing the laws of heaven and earth, and temporarily becoming the master of this space.

From an outsider's perspective, Lu Yuan seemed to be trapped in a desperate situation, attacked from both sides.

However, Lu Yuan's expression remained unchanged despite the combined attack from three Nascent Soul experts.

"How can the light of a firefly compare to the brilliance of the moon? Your vision is too narrow; you will never know how terrifying the power of a tribulation lightning is!"

"Today, I will show you the true power of the lightning tribulation!"

"Thunder comes!"

Lu Yuan roared, his voice booming like thunder in everyone's ears.

He then extended his right palm and made a grasping motion in the air.

"Boom!"

It was accompanied by a deafening clap of thunder.

Lightning flashed in the void, and a sudden gust of wind arose.

Many Foundation Establishment cultivators were blown to pieces by the gale, unable to even open their eyes.

As for those Nascent Soul experts, their faces were filled with horror, as if they had witnessed something unbelievable.

Just as Lu Yuan finished speaking...

A bolt of purple lightning suddenly appeared and struck down from the sky, which Lu Yuan caught in his hand.

And this was none other than the legendary Purple Heaven Divine Thunder!
Lu Yuan, holding lightning in his hand, stood tall in the void.

He was like an ancient god-king who wielded punishment, his aura terrifying to the extreme!
"Controlling the tribulation lightning? How is he able to do that?"

The once confident Old Ancestor Baihe's expression changed drastically upon seeing the purple lightning bolt, his eyes filled with horror!
It should be understood that although the powerful beings who have transformed into deities are said to be able to make their words carry out the law and to punish on behalf of Heaven.

But that's just an exaggeration; at best, it would be quite good if it could draw upon the power of heaven and earth.

The tribulation of lightning represents the majesty of the Heavenly Dao and is the manifestation of the laws of heaven and earth!
Only a Tribulation Transcending True Monarch who has undergone countless tribulations and comprehended a trace of the origin of tribulations is qualified to do this!
But Lu Yuan is just a rising star, how could he possibly master the power of lightning tribulation?
