Chapter 1141: Chapter 690
They realized it tooâthe Sect Leader fled, the Ancestor fled.
These thousands of cannon fodder could only wait for the enemy to strike them down without warning!
Jiang Tang expanded this small umbrella to an immense size, covering the entirety of the Invincible Sect midair!
He did not stop the umbrellaâs actions, for he had already told Green Ox and Eryao that those who had committed no evil could be spared!
Just give them a measure of punishment, crippling their cultivationâthat would suffice!
By stripping away their cultivation and leaving them as ordinary people, even if they eventually managed to return to their homeland amidst the boundless sea, it would not be easy!
The lightning in the skies initially felt aggrieved, fearing that if it struck, those evildoers might bear a grudge!
Surely, they must have some trick up their sleeveâand sure enough, here it came: some mortal wielding an Immortalâs Magical Treasure?
With this Immortalâs Treasure, no matter how powerful the lightning was, it could not strike him directly. Before, it seemed like the immense lightning was attuned to the strength of this personâs abilities!
No wonder they had misunderstood. As it turned out, the other party had a secret treasure!
Could it be that this person was the Son of Heaven?
So young, yet possessing such extraordinary cultivation and intensity. Wearing that Treasure Robe, wielding this magical umbrellaâwhat else could he be, if not the child of an Immortal?
This individual must surely be the Bearer of Destiny within this space. With such a treasure, he would not hold a grudge against opponents who had failed to harm him, would he?
Jiang Tang felt the surging intensity of lightning in the sky react as his umbrella unfurled, beginning to move!
The lightning struck rapidly with a âboom,â colliding against the magical umbrella with a deafening roar akin to thunder.
Those who heard it, if slightly weaker in capability, felt as though their ears had been permanently deafened; weaker individuals even experienced bleeding ears!
This immense noise was powerful enough to instantly injure mundane cultivators or ordinary people who heard it.
Jiang Tang glanced worriedly at Green Ox and saw that he was fine. Then he looked at the enemies, noticing that the stronger ones merely resisted the sound with their abilities, while the weaker ones had already sustained injuries!
He neither sympathized nor tried to stop the noise!
Today, it was destined that the Invincible Sect would face catastrophic calamity. How many would die or be injured?
Jiang Tang did not concern himself with this, nor did he pity them. He was no Bodhisattva, and eradicating evil was a necessity; helping evildoers was impossible!
If he ever did such a thing, others would deem him a fool, and he himself could never reconcile with his own conscience!
Ye Tianâs gaze of admiration fell into the distance. Truly, Jiang Tang was the Bearer of Destiny. He had previously thought that such immense lightning would surely cause injury if it descended!
What sort of treasure did his Spiritual Pet come from?
It even felt like an Immortal Treasure to him!
Ye Tianâs fervent gaze lingered on the umbrella and Jiang Tangâs robe.
Despite his denial, he had to admit he felt jealousyâintense, overwhelming jealousy. In his heart, he cursed bitterly, thinking: âBoth of us are transmigrators. If Iâm not the protagonist, am I merely a supporting character?â
Why didnât he have such fortune?
Why didnât he possess such Immortal Treasures?
Ye Tianâs admiring yet envious eyes rolled toward the heavensâhow could the Heavenly Dao be so biased? Even if he was a supporting character, couldnât he at least have something noteworthy?
The Heavenly Dao seemed to sense his thoughts, and the sky above opened to reveal a blank space devoid of cloudsâa celestial eye-roll, as if it were flipping its gaze in disdain!
Having a Son of Heaven was splendid; a little favoritismâwhat was wrong with that?
What world has ever been fair? To avoid becoming cannon fodder was fortunate enough!
The Heavenly Dao knew that Ye Tian, possessing the ability to transmigrate into this body, this lineage, was already exceptionally lucky!
Even as a supporting character, he had not endured hardship. Sure, he wasnât as blessed as Jiang Tang, the Son of Heaven, lacking his Destiny.
Being friends with the Son of Heaven was already a great blessing. Didnât he see the Son of Heaven leading him on journeys across celestial realms?
Could this person really be so greedy as to try seizing the protagonistâs fortune?
That was impossible. The Son of Heaven was meant to be favored; the supporting character could never wrest away the Bearer of Destinyâs fortune!
Was the supporting character plotting to supplant the protagonist?
That was utterly impossibleâhe was far too inferior. Jiang Tang had countless treasures, far superior abilities, and was leagues beyond him!
The Bearer of Destinyâs fortune was no longer simply under his own command; his treasures had already compensated for any shortcomings!
At this stage, even the Heavenly Dao could no longer control the Son of Heaven. The father had no power to discipline his son anymoreâhe could only hope his son continued to grow stronger. Otherwise, without vigilance, would the son not suffer injuries during this thunderstorm?
Jiang Tang noticed the scorching gazes of those around him but was unaware of his friendâs inner thoughts. Not knowing, he also saw no need to wonderâfriends often jest and chat, expressing similar sentiments of envy or jealousy.
Such things never troubled Jiang Tang. His possessions couldnât be taken by othersâwhy fret?
The lightning struck repeatedly in the sky, one bolt after another. The lightning was already immensely powerful; if it struck a cultivator at the Divinity Transformation Stage, harm would be inevitable!
The lightning paused momentarily in the skies, offering Jiang Tang a reprieve. With his treasure deflecting it, the formidable strikes merely seemed like tickles.
The lightning couldnât break through the treasureâs power; it couldnât fall upon Jiang Tang!
The lightning felt slightly aggrievedâit had realized its error, having misunderstood earlier!
It was quite fearful of the evildoer drenched in blood, but now beneath the treasure, this personâlooking elegant and majestic like an Immortalâhad beauty and grace unseen even in Immortals!
The lightning contemplated: This person must be an Immortal, or how else could he possess Immortal Treasures?
Perhaps an Immortal had fallen, reincarnated into a mortal infant, and cultivated anew. Such a being carried memories of their past life and extraordinary mastery of cultivation techniques. This person was bound to be persecuted!
Fated to rapidly ascend as an Immortal, mortals could hardly stop such an individual.
The lightning didnât grow stronger or diminishâmerely following the procedure. With such formidable treasures shielding him, its strikes were futile!
As tribulation lightning dispatched by Immortals, its task was to gauge human bodiesâ strengthâand regardless of the cultivatorâs power, failure to endure meant death, but that was none of its concern!
The reality was simple: if a personâs physical strength didnât match their cultivation, the outcome was predictable. Some Immortals focused solely on cultivation, neglecting body refinement, leaving their constitution brittle and liable to succumb to tribulations!
Thus, they became cannon fodderâunfortunate casualties.
This tribulation lightning, encountering a mortal wielding Immortal Treasures for the first time, now firmly believed this was the Son of Heaven, perhaps even an Immortal reincarnated. Bolt upon bolt, a dozen strikes descended heavily!
Terrified of pursuers arriving later, the lightning fled after completing its task!
Jiang Tang⊠Was he truly that terrifying?
For the first time, he felt that tribulation crossing could be so effortless!
Jiang Tang inwardly celebratedâhaving this magical umbrella, there was nothing to fear should similar lightning arise in the future!
If faced with even more powerful lightning during ascension, he should be fine too!
In the past, Jiang Tang suppressed his cultivation to avoid repeated encounters with persistent lightningâhe had no desire for endless thunderstrikes chasing him, wreaking havoc on his career and family!
Jiang Tang smiled brightly, the corners of his mouth lifting in delight!
Elated, he wanted to clap his hands, summoning the Primordial Treasure Spirit Field Space from its realm to handle the remaining matters!
Eryao observed the lightning had fled, and with no lingering dangers outside, proclaimed his master safe once more. Emerging from the space, he began dealing with the evildoers!
Jiang Tang vanished from his spot; he did not retreat to the Primordial Treasure Spirit Field Space but entered his own internal realm!
The intensity of his cultivation had elevated; previously, there had been no time to consolidate!
He entered his inner realm, delegating the cleanup to his Spiritual Pet.
Jiang Tang abruptly disappeared into the sky. He was no longer concerned whether others might uncover his secrets!
Neither passing strangers nor enemies knowing would trouble him, nor would knowledge among friends!
At this stage of cultivation, others would merely assume he had reached the Divinity Transformation Stage, capable of tearing through space and transporting himself elsewhere!
