Chapter 20 – What kind of freak is this? Tribulation like drinking water?

The second Heavenly Thunder was immensely powerful!

The Heavenly Thunder Tribulation being severed seemed to have enraged the Tribulation Clouds.

In response, another golden Sword Light soared from Thunder Mountain Ravine.

The descending Heavenly Thunder was once again extinguished.

It appeared just as effortless as before!

This scene nearly made Zhang Kui and the others drop their jaws in disbelief.

It felt as though the one undergoing the tribulation was not enduring a trial but rather enjoying a vacation!

Then came the third Heavenly Thunder!

The fourth Heavenly Thunder!

The fifth Heavenly Thunder…

Each was severed with a single sword strike by the monster within Thunder Mountain Ravine.

Every time, it was done with extreme ease.

Several minutes later.

Zhang Kui stared in the direction of Thunder Mountain Ravine, which had now severed eight consecutive Heavenly Thunders, his face completely numb.

“Only the last one remains!” Zhang Kui said.

If the monster in Thunder Mountain Ravine could withstand this final Heavenly Thunder, the tribulation would be over.

Boom!

The ninth Heavenly Thunder was exceptionally vast and mighty.

The figure within Thunder Mountain Ravine seemed to grow serious as well.

An incredibly brilliant golden Sword Light soared upward.

This strike appeared to have been executed with full force, colliding head-on with the ninth Heavenly Thunder.

Boom!

The golden Sword Light was like a fleeting marvel.

In the eyes of Zhang Kui and the others, an unbelievable scene unfolded.

Not only did this sword strike extinguish the ninth Heavenly Thunder, but it also surged upward, dispersing the Tribulation Clouds in the sky.

Witnessing this, Zhang Kui and the others were utterly dumbfounded.

In their entire lives, this was the first time they had ever heard of Tribulation Clouds being shattered!

“What?!”

Wang Yu was stunned. For a fleeting moment, he even thought that this Heavenly Thunder Tribulation was nothing special—that even he could handle it!

Fortunately, he hadn’t lost his senses and understood that it was only possible because the monster in Thunder Mountain Ravine was overwhelmingly powerful.

If it were him, it wouldn’t have been so easy.

“What… what kind of monster is hidden within Thunder Mountain Ravine?”

After a long while, the other three members of the team finally stammered, utterly shocked.

Zhang Kui’s expression turned solemn. “Let’s go. We’ll go to Thunder Mountain Ravine and see what kind of aberration this is!”

With that, Zhang Kui didn’t wait for the others to react and leaped forward first, heading toward Thunder Mountain Ravine.

Wang Yu and the others were taken aback but quickly followed suit.

They, too, were intensely curious about this formidable figure in Thunder Mountain Ravine.

The group moved with incredible speed.

After all, they were all Experts at the Perfection realm of the 1st Transformation, level 100.

In just a few minutes, they caught a distant glimpse of Thunder Mountain Ravine.

Zhang Kui slowed his pace, gazing warily in the direction of Thunder Mountain Ravine, no longer daring to rush forward recklessly.

That aberration had just completed the tribulation and was likely nurturing his cultivation at this moment.

If they were to charge out carelessly and disturb him now, none of them would likely survive.

Wang Yu and the others also wore cautious expressions, following closely behind Zhang Kui.

If not for their overwhelming curiosity, they wouldn’t have dared to come here to investigate.

A short while later.

The group emerged from the forest and looked toward the scorched expanse of Thunder Mountain Ravine.

Especially Wang Yu, who widened his eyes, eager to see exactly which formidable figure this was.

Crossing a tribulation with such ease!

Such an individual must be someone of great renown even in Ghost Mountain City.

Through the forest,

Zhang Kui, Wang Yu, and the others saw the charred landscape of Thunder Mountain Ravine.

The tribulation had just ended, and many of the scorched boulders still emitted wisps of smoke.

Countless fine threads of lightning crackled across the ground, not yet fully dissipated.

Amid the blackened ruins of Thunder Mountain Ravine, the group spotted a figure seated cross-legged atop a large boulder.

The figure was still bathed in residual lightning, eyes closed as he nurtured his cultivation.

On him, the aura of a 1st Transformation Cultivator had completely vanished.

Instead, it was the enviable cultivation aura of the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm, continuously overflowing.

Although this aura was that of someone who had just stepped into the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm, it was undoubtedly the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm!

However…

When Zhang Kui and the others clearly saw the face of the seated figure, they all froze in shock.

They actually knew this aberration!

No!

To be precise, they had seen him before!

Just recently!

“How could it be him?!”

Wang Yu couldn’t help but exclaim, his eyes nearly popping out of his head as he stared at the figure on the black boulder.

Zhang Kui and the others were also stunned!

They had all seen the figure on the black boulder before!

Just recently, this figure had passed by their resting place.

Wang Yu had even intended to pick a fight.

It was only because Zhang Kui stopped him that no conflict arose.

Wang Yu had looked down on him with disdain!

Thinking he was just an ordinary 1st Revolution Level 100 Cultivator.

Yet this very Cultivator, whom they had regarded as an ordinary 1st Revolution Level 100, turned out to be a world-shaking aberration!

Crossing the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation was as simple as drinking water for him!

“How could it be him?”

Zhang Kui was also bewildered, recognizing Ye Sheng.

He clearly remembered that when he last saw Ye Sheng, Ye Sheng wasn’t even as strong as Wang Yu, the weakest in their team.

But now, this ordinary 1st Revolution Level 100 Cultivator was that world-shaking aberration!

In the Thunder Mountain Ravine.

Ye Sheng’s body crackled with electricity, his aura overflowing with the cultivation presence of the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm.

He closed his eyes, sensing the changes within his body, his heart filled with joy.

He felt stronger than ever before at this moment!

After successfully breaking through to the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm.

The shackles that had long troubled Ye Sheng finally vanished.

His body felt as if it had been emptied and reset!

If his previous body was like a bottle already filled with water, unable to accommodate more energy to grow stronger,

Then now, this bottle was not only emptied but also expanded to an enormous capacity!

Ten times the volume of the previous bottle!

He could continue filling it with water, accumulating more energy, and growing even stronger!

“Is this the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm?!”

Ye Sheng rejoiced, like a child.

After reaching the 2nd Revolution, the changes were simply too many—everything felt like a fresh start!

His strength could increase once more!

By hunting monsters, he could continue accumulating Experience and Level Up.

His Skills could also grow more powerful!

Most importantly—he could now equip 2nd Revolution Equipment.

This was undoubtedly a qualitative leap!

Equipment was crucial, especially high-quality equipment.

This had already been proven during the 1st Revolution.

And 2nd Revolution Equipment was far more powerful than 1st Revolution Equipment!

Wasn’t a full set of 1st Revolution Dark Gold Equipment powerful enough?

It increased strength by 100 times!

Truly terrifying!

Yet a full set of 1st Revolution Dark Gold Equipment might not even compare to the strength provided by a single piece of 2nd Revolution Gold Tier Equipment!

This was a difference in tier!

Quantity couldn’t make up for it.

2nd Revolution Equipment contained far more energy!

And offered greater Combat Power!

Previously, Ye Sheng’s ability to kill two 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm Experts was largely due to luck.

Those two had only just stepped into the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm, their Levels not exceeding 2nd Revolution Level 10.

They couldn’t even wear much equipment yet.

They only had the basic Combat Power Increase from reaching the 2nd Revolution.

It was also their misfortune to encounter an aberration like Ye Sheng.

A full set of Dark Gold Equipment was one thing, but coupled with an Annihilation-grade Skill, the Amplification reached a terrifying 260 times!

Survival was nearly impossible!

“2nd Revolution Equipment can only be worn by Experts at the 2nd Revolution or above.”

“I once again have immense room for improvement!”

Ye Sheng said joyfully.

Swish!

Ye Sheng opened his eyes. He had long sensed someone approaching Thunder Mountain Gorge, hiding in the distance and observing him.

However, after promoting to the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm, Ye Sheng’s perception had grown immensely powerful.

Sensing that the few people observing him from afar were merely Cultivators at the 1st Revolution, Level 100, and posed no real threat to him, he paid them no mind.
