649: Tribulation of Lightning Descends

At this moment, black scales grew all over Yang Tianlang's body. These scales emitted a chilling radiance, giving people a feeling of being indestructible.

"Yang Lingchen, to be able to force me to this point, you truly count as the strongest opponent in my fate. Next, I will let you witness my strongest method."

Killing intent raged in Yang Tianlang's eyes. He swung his right palm, and immediately, a dark force condensed into a massive aura imprint in the Void Realm, then instantly swept toward Yang Lingchen.

"Damn it, I'll slap you to death!"

Yang Lingchen roared wildly, his figure instantly transforming into a Dragon body. Then, his massive Dragon claw, carrying a biting wave of Qi, slammed toward Yang Tianlang like a landslide.

"Rumble...!"

The violent booming sound was like the heavens collapsing and the earth splitting, resounding throughout the entire Desolate Ancient Central Continent. Some people with low cultivation levels didn't even react before they were shaken to death on the spot.

At this time, two figures, one black and one gold, were constantly flashing in the sky, and streaks of sharp Protective Aura ravaged the Star Domain.

At this moment, both Yang Lingchen and Yang Tianlang had their eyes turned red from the killing.

This battle was fought until the sky turned dark and the earth crumbled.

As time passed, the wounds on both their bodies continued to increase, yet they had no intention of stopping, because this was a battle of fate; only one of them could survive.

As time went on bit by bit, Yang Lingchen gradually fell into a disadvantage.

Although he had transformed into a Dragon god, the demonized Yang Tianlang was still half a minor Realm higher in cultivation level than him.

Moreover, Yang Tianlang had also devoured Lei Zhentian, so in terms of Combat Power and talent, he was completely not inferior to Yang Lingchen.

At this moment, Yang Lingchen was also a bit anxious; now, the only thing he could rely on was his Space Martial Skill.

However, his Space Martial Skill had only been Cultivated to the introductory level; wanting to defeat Yang Tianlang was obviously unrealistic.

Of course, Yang Lingchen could also choose to flee, but he did not want to do so, because if he couldn't defeat Yang Tianlang this time, he wouldn't be able to defeat him in the future either; after all, while you are progressing, the other person is also progressing.

"Do you need my help?" At this moment, Long Qinxue's voice entered Yang Lingchen's mind.

"No need, this is a battle of fate. Unless it is an absolute last resort, do not take action," Yang Lingchen said seriously.

"Be careful. I believe you will definitely win," Long Qinxue said via Sound Transmission.

"Space Martial Skill, whether I can win this time depends on you," Yang Lingchen thought to himself, then continuously deployed his Space Martial Skill to maneuver around Yang Tianlang.

He intended to use this opportunity to break through his Space Martial Skill to a higher level in one go; only in this way could he win a glimmer of hope in this battle.

"Yang Lingchen, although this Cultivation Technique of yours is brilliant, unfortunately, you have only been Cultivating it for a short time, so it is impossible for it to threaten me."

Yang Tianlang sneered, and his Moves became increasingly ruthless. He could see that Yang Lingchen was using him to hone his Martial Skill, so he had to finish off Yang Lingchen as quickly as possible; otherwise, the longer it dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for him.

Yang Lingchen continuously deployed his Space Martial Skill, and from time to time, he blasted out streaks of Soul Devouring Slash, attacking the opponent's Soul.

Although he was a notch inferior to the opponent in terms of Combat Power, in terms of Soul strength, Yang Lingchen was slightly superior.

Relying on his Soul Martial Skill and Space Martial Skill, Yang Lingchen and Yang Tianlang presented a stalemate.

However, Yang Lingchen knew that if his Space Martial Skill did not break through soon, defeat would just be a matter of time.

Just at this moment, Yang Tianlang caught a flaw in Yang Lingchen, and then a heavy punch blasted toward Yang Lingchen; the terrifying Fist Aura seemed as if it wanted to shatter this entire area.

"Damn it, life and death are fated, wealth and honor are in the hands of the heavens. I'll risk it all."

A trace of madness flashed in Yang Lingchen's eyes, and then he silently recited the incantation of the Space Martial Skill.

At this moment, he had staked everything. If he were hit by the opponent, he would definitely be severely injured, or even potentially perish, but he had no other choice, unless he could break through his Space Martial Skill to a higher level at this critical moment.

Of course, Yang Lingchen was not blindly fighting hard, because he could feel that his Space Martial Skill was only one opportunity away from a Breakthrough.

Yang Lingchen knew that for such a Heaven-Defying Martial Skill to break through, one must experience life and death; only by undergoing the tempering of life and death could one break through to a higher level, but this also carried great risk; once he failed, he would be completely done for.

Facing Yang Tianlang's terrifyingly extreme Fist Aura, bean-sized sweat beads gradually overflowed from Yang Lingchen's forehead.

Just at the moment when this terrifying Fist Aura was about to engulf Yang Lingchen, his figure disappeared, as if he had vanished from this world, instantly leaving no trace.

"How is this possible?"

Yang Tianlang's eyes were full of disbelief; he really couldn't understand how a perfectly fine person could suddenly disappear? Moreover, there was absolutely no aura of a teleportation talisman at the scene.

"Bang!"

At that very instant, a terrifying strike of staff energy instantly appeared at Yang Tianlang's Dantian.

"Ah... ah... ah!"

Yang Tianlang let out a shrill scream and was instantly blasted away, losing his Combat Power on the spot.

"How is this possible? How could I possibly lose to you?"

Despair filled Yang Tianlang's eyes, and a trace of disbelief showed on his face.

Having experienced countless Reincarnations, after devouring Lei Zhentian, he had originally thought he could change his fate against the heavens, yet the heavens had played a huge joke on him.

"There is nothing impossible about it; if you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for being complacent and conservative," Yang Lingchen said coldly.

If he were Yang Tianlang, he would never have stayed in the backward Archaic Star Domain, because the cultivation level increase would be far too slow that way.

If Yang Tianlang had also gone to other Star Domains to train like him, with Yang Lingchen's current strength, it would be impossible to defeat Yang Tianlang.

"What you say makes sense; I was just too content with the status quo and didn't want to go out and take risks, so I ultimately lost to you. If the heavens gave me a chance to do it all over again, I would never stay in the Archaic Star Domain waiting for you to challenge me," Yang Tianlang said with a bitter smile.

"Is there anything else you want to say?" Yang Lingchen asked.

"As the loser, what else is there to say? Since you won, I can't be bothered to make meaningless struggles. You and I are originally one; merging with you can also be considered a good thing for me."

After Yang Tianlang finished speaking, he directly transformed into a beam of spiritual light and merged into Yang Lingchen's body.

At this moment, he had given up resistance; meaningless struggle no longer had any significance for him.

Seeing this, Yang Lingchen hurriedly activated the Vast Heaven Art and began to devour.

"Boom... boom... boom...!"

At this time, the sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and the entire world was plunged into darkness.

As bursts of thunder sounded, the Void Realm seemed as if thousands of troops and horses were galloping. Under this terrifying thunder, all living beings between heaven and earth could not help but tremble in their hearts.

"Fourth Level of the Heavenly Dao Realm Middle Stage."

"Fourth Level of the Heavenly Dao Realm Late Stage."

"Fourth Level of the Heavenly Dao Realm Peak."

"Heavenly Dao Realm Fifth Layer."

In less than a moment, Yang Lingchen felt his body and heart as if they had been sublimated, and his cultivation level at this moment also broke through to the Heavenly Dao Realm Fifth Layer.

"Boom... boom... boom...!"

After the Breakthrough, the Lightning Tribulation in the Void Realm gradually took shape, and then continuously struck down toward Yang Lingchen.

"Damn it, I only devoured a dao body, right? I didn't do anything that would make both men and gods angry. You thieving heavens, is it necessary to strike me like this?"

Yang Lingchen cursed angrily, but a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, because these Lightning Tribulations were truly too terrifying, as if they wanted to destroy him.

At the same time, Yang Lingchen's cultivation level was still rising crazily.

"Heavenly Dao Realm Fifth Layer Middle Stage."

"Heavenly Dao Realm Fifth Layer Late Stage."

"Heavenly Dao Realm Sixth Layer."

"Heavenly Dao Realm Seventh Layer."

In the blink of an eye, a day passed, and Yang Lingchen's cultivation level had reached the Heavenly Dao Realm Seventh Layer.

And the injuries on his body were becoming increasingly severe. After twelve hours of being struck by lightning, his whole person had been blasted until his hair was standing on end.
