49: Did that second senior brother, who only knows how to eat, swallow the lightning tribulation?

Black Wind Mountain Range, above the ruins.

"Hiccup—"

A loud burp broke the silence.

Shi Tian rubbed his round belly, looking satisfied.

Just a moment ago, he had taken advantage of his Senior Brother and Senior Sister not paying attention to eat several bottles of "supplementary Medicinal Pill" he had scavenged from the Soul Hall treasury like candy.

Those Medicinal Pill were actually "Soul Power crystals" condensed by the Soul Hall using pure Soul energy, where a single one would be enough for a Golden Core Stage Cultivator to digest for several days.

And Shi Tian had downed three bottles in one breath.

"Second Junior Brother, what did you eat?"

Xiao Chen looked at Shi Tian, who looked like he was about to burst, his eyelids twitching.

Shi Tian smiled honestly, burped, and a wisp of black smoke sprayed from his mouth.

"Noth... nothing, just a little hungry."

"Rumble—!!!"

Before he could finish his sentence.

The originally clear sky suddenly darkened without warning.

Large swaths of dark clouds gathered from all directions, oppressive and black, as if the sky had collapsed.

Within the clouds, purple lightning snakes crazily darted about, emitting a heart-palpitating roar.

A terrifying Heavenly Dao pressure, as if it could destroy the world, instantly enveloped the entire Black Wind Mountain Range.

"This... this is... Lightning Tribulation?!"

Xiao Chen's expression changed drastically, and he looked up abruptly.

"Who is Undergoing Tribulation?!"

Ye Fan and Leng Yanran also became instantly vigilant, each summoning their Magic Treasure.

The power of this level of Lightning Tribulation was more than a hundred times more terrifying than the Lightning Tribulation they had faced during their Foundation Establishment! This was definitely not an ordinary Golden Core Lightning Tribulation!

"It's not us." Leng Yanran frowned, her gaze finally falling on Shi Tian.

At this moment, Shi Tian was standing in place, looking dazed.

The aura on his body was rising crazily, and the power of his Heavenly Tyrant Blood was uncontrollably gushing out, condensing into a towering, invincible figure behind him.

And the target locked onto by the tribulation clouds in the sky was none other than him!

"It's Second Junior Brother!" Ye Fan exclaimed, "He is having a Breakthrough!"

"Eat... can you also have a Breakthrough if you are stuffed?" Xiao Chen's worldview was once again impacted.

"No, this is not an ordinary Breakthrough."

Leng Yanran's expression became extremely solemn as she stared fixedly at the indifferent giant eye made of lightning that was slowly opening in the center of the tribulation clouds.

"This is... Supreme Tribulation!"

"It is the legendary strongest Lightning Tribulation that only appears when a born Supreme reshapes their Foundation!"

"Oh no!"

Xiao Chen's heart sank to the bottom.

Supreme Tribulation!

Ancient records state that this tribulation has a nine-in-ten chance of death! Very few can survive it!

Although Shi Tian has awakened his Heavenly Tyrant Blood, his Foundation is not yet stable; how could he withstand this level of heavenly punishment?!

"Second Junior Brother! Quick! Use the hoe Revered Master gave you to protect your body!" Xiao Chen shouted in a hurry.

"Senior Sister! Your Demonic Technique has the power of devouring, hurry and help Second Junior Brother share some of it!"

"Fourth Junior Brother! Your skin is thick! You go to the front and hold it off!"

The three of them immediately took action, preparing to join forces to resist the tribulation.

However.

The person involved, Shi Tian, had a reaction that was a bit... not quite right.

He was not nervous at all.

Instead, he touched his growling stomach, looked up at the tribulation clouds brewing with terrifying energy in the sky, smacked his lips, and a trace of... longing appeared in his eyes?

"Senior Brother, I am still a little hungry."

"That black cotton candy in the sky looks... like it tastes very good."

Xiao Chen: "???"

Ye Fan: "???"

Leng Yanran: "???"

Cotton candy?

You call this cotton candy?!

That is the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning that can blast a Soul Transformation expert into charcoal!

"Boom crack—!!!"

Just as the three were still stunned.

The Heavenly Dao seemed to have been angered by this sentence from Shi Tian.

A deafening loud noise.

A purple divine lightning as thick as a water bucket, like a spear of a Heavenly God, tore through the sky, carrying the aura of destroying everything, and struck down towards Shi Tian's head!

"Second Junior Brother, dodge quickly!" Xiao Chen was scared to the point of Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

However.

Shi Tian not only did not dodge.

Instead, he opened his mouth towards the divine lightning.

That mouth, at this moment, seemed to turn into a bottomless black hole.

In the eyes of everyone who were terrified to the point of suffocation.

He...

One bite!

Just like that, one bite!

He sucked the purple divine lightning, which was enough to shatter a mountain Peak, into his stomach like eating noodles with a "slurp" sound.

"Hiccup—"

A burp with electric sparks emerged from Shi Tian's mouth.

The air was filled with the smell of... charred barbecue.

Quiet.

Dead silent.

Xiao Chen froze.

Ye Fan froze.

Leng Yanran froze.

Even the giant lightning eye in the sky, which had just been majestic, seemed to... blink?

As if to say: Did I... miss just now?

"Gulp."

Xiao Chen swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.

He looked at the Second Junior Brother who was rubbing his belly and looking aftertaste-filled, feeling like his brain was a mess.

"Ate... ate it?"

"He ate the Lightning Tribulation?!"

"Is this something a human does?!"

"Is this guy a Taotie Reincarnation?!"

"Boom crack! Boom crack! Boom crack!"

The Heavenly Dao was angry.

Completely angry.

As the Supreme Law maintaining the operation of the world, it felt that its dignity had been provoked like never before.

"You are Undergoing Tribulation, so just Undergo it, what kind of operation is swallowing lightning?!"

"Do you think I am a cafeteria server?!"

In an instant.

The tribulation clouds rolled crazily, expanding more than ten times more than before.

Hundreds of five-colored divine lightnings, thicker than before, poured down like a rainstorm, swearing to blast this ignorant boy into ashes!

"Wow! Buffet!"

Seeing this, Shi Tian was not only not afraid, but danced with excitement.

He opened his mouth, like a baby bird waiting to be fed, and began to slurp crazily towards the sky.

"Slurp! Slurp! Slurp!"

The scene was extremely spectacular, yet extremely absurd.

The divine lightning fell all over the sky.

But it didn't even touch the corner of Shi Tian's clothes before it was all sucked into his stomach.

His stomach was like a bottomless pit, eating as much as came.

He even complained that the Heavenly Dao's "serving" speed was too slow, and flew into the air, diving headfirst into the tribulation clouds.

"Rumble..."

A muffled chewing sound came from inside the tribulation clouds, accompanied by Shi Tian's slurred complaints.

"This one... tastes average."

"That one... a bit numb."

"Why isn't there a spicy one?"

Xiao Chen and the others were completely numb.

They gave up thinking and just stared blankly at the rapidly shrinking tribulation cloud in the sky.

As if watching a... magical realism movie.

I don't know how much time passed.

When the last ray of lightning was sucked into Shi Tian's stomach.

The sky cleared up.

The tribulation clouds dispersed, and the sunlight shone down again.

It was as if the earth-shattering Supreme Tribulation had never appeared.

Only a trace of ionized smell remained in the air, and the sound of Shi Tian's satisfied burp.

"Hiccup—"

Shi Tian floated down from the sky with satisfaction, patting his round belly.

The aura on his body had completely stabilized at the Golden Core Peak, and even half a foot had stepped into the Nascent Soul Stage.

In those originally honest eyes, purple electric light was flickering at this moment, looking majestic.

"Refreshing!"

"Haven't eaten this full in a long time!"

He turned his head, looked at the completely petrified Senior Brother and Senior Sister, and asked innocently:

"Senior Brother, what's wrong with you? Why aren't you talking?"

Xiao Chen opened his mouth, and after a long time squeezed out a sentence:

"Se... Second Junior Brother, are... are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Shi Tian scratched his head, "Just a little bit stuffed."

"Hiccup—"

He burped again, and a small lightning bolt sprayed from his mouth, splitting a stone in front of him in two.

Xiao Chen: "..."

Ye Fan: "..."

Leng Yanran silently took two steps back, staying a little further away from this humanoid lightning mage.

Shi Tian smacked his lips, seemingly still unfinished.

He looked up at the empty sky, a trace of regret appearing on his face.

"It's just that the taste is a bit bland."

"A bit numb."

He turned to look at Xiao Chen and suggested seriously:

"Senior Brother, next time we are Undergoing Tribulation."

"Can you talk to Revered Master and ask him to negotiate with the Heavens..."

"Add some cumin?"
