Chapter 586: 580: The Cessation of the Five Aggregates
“What is this?”
Gazing at the divine eye that could shock the heavens and move gods, David Jones’s heart pounded rapidly, instinctively snapping out of his psychic deep meditation state.
“It’s hard to say whether you’re incredibly lucky or extremely unlucky, actually encountering the Five Elements Annihilation Thunder Tribulation, a phenomenon rarely seen in ten thousand years.”
The God Egg was also startled.
When It advanced to a Class VIII Legend, the Heavenly Tribulation It induced to converge the forces of the Laws It governed was the Fire Departing Heavenly Tribulation which barely matched the level of the Five Elements Annihilation Thunder Tribulation, or even slightly weaker.
Although due to David Jones’s insufficient strength, the Five Elements Annihilation Thunder Tribulation he drew was far less powerful than the Fire Departing Heavenly Tribulation It faced back then, it was still a terrifying tribulation that could annihilate an ordinary epic apex powerhouse with the five elements tribulation.
To put it bluntly, without external assistance, the lightning from the Five Elements Annihilation Thunder Tribulation could kill him over and over again, at least five times with David Jones’s current strength.
Even if David Jones died and was resurrected midway, he would continue to attract the targeted arrival of the Five Elements Thunder Tribulation.
“Does that mean I can only face this Five Elements Thunder Tribulation head-on, and cannot escape?” David Jones’s eyes were burning.
“That’s right, because of the restrictions of the Heaven and Earth Laws, I can only help you weaken the power of the Five Elements Annihilation Thunder Tribulation by ninety percent; the remaining ten percent, you must withstand on your own,” the God Egg said with a grave tone.
The Five Elements Annihilation Thunder Tribulation was too domineering; even if It could weaken most of the thunder’s force, the remaining power could still heavily injure an epic powerhouse, or completely obliterate an ordinary King-level powerhouse.
With David Jones’s current bodily strength, the chance of surviving the direct confrontation with the Five Elements Thunder Tribulation was less than one in ten thousand, unless he could trigger that talent in the face of a desperate situation, or else he would need to be resurrected at least once or twice.
And frequent resurrections would cause both his newly forged Flawless King Body and the soon-to-be-formed Extreme Arcane Star to degrade, even possibly leading to a downgrade in class.
“I understand, I’m counting on you this time!”
Now that the deed had been done, David Jones avoided any unnecessary talk and closed his eyes to accept reality, trying to form the Extreme Arcane Star as quickly as possible to fight the Thunder Tribulation in the best state he could.
The God Egg moved slightly, its tone carrying a hint of admiration.
“I can only delay it for half a day at most; if you can cast off the mundane and become a king within this half a day, there might be a slim hope for you to cultivate the Jade Bone King Body and Earth Extreme Arcane Star with the help of the Thunder Tribulation and successfully overcome it.”
There are five realms within the Extreme Arcane Star: Yellow Extreme, Profound Extreme, Earth Extreme, Heavenly Extreme, and Divine Extreme, also known as the Divine Extreme Five Transformations, in which the Earth Extreme Arcane Star corresponds to the Jade Bone King Body.
In the eyes of the God Egg, if David Jones could achieve this step with his brief cultivation time, he would have exceeded nearly 100% of the genius Trainers in the world.
Even if his talent was not fully awakened, he would still rank among the top ten in the millennia of Human history.
“Half a day is more than enough, I shall become a king!”
Feeling the rapid growth of his Cultivation and that fulfilling sense inside his body about to break through the barriers, David Jones confidently declared.
He then ignored the imminent descending thunder in the sky and focused all his attention on the Arcane Star in the Origin Star Space, which was beginning to crack on its surface.
Seeing David Jones’s trust, the God Egg didn’t utter a single word, but the five pillars of light surrounding David Jones became even brighter.
The intense Domination even caused the divine thunderous eye high in the clouds to squint, and the rampant thunder around it began to slow down.
“Class V middle phase, just two small grades and one big grade away!”
With a thought, David Jones swallowed the remaining All-empty Gold Liquid in one gulp with a fearless momentum.
The domineering Energy rapidly surged through his body, assaulting his flesh and Arcane Star, increasing the speed at which his Arcane Star’s surface cracked.
The intense energy shock not only caused a large amount of fresh blood to pour from David Jones’s mouth and nose, but also caused his jade-like skin to develop dense patterns, as if it would burst at any moment.
However, as a price for his injury, his long-stagnant Arcane Star Cultivation began to surge, sprinting directly from the medium stage of Class V to the later stage, and launching an assault toward the apex of Class V.
“No, this is still far from enough!”
David Jones steeled his heart and took out half a bottle of Ten Thousand Years Evergreen Stone Milk from his Star Ring and gulped it down in one go.
It was only because the Ten Thousand Years Evergreen Stone Milk was gentle enough in nature; had it been any other Legendary resource, David Jones would have certainly exploded from imbibing it like this.
Soon, several hours passed, and the sound of thunder still roared on.
The Ten Thousand Years Evergreen Stone Milk that melted upon entering his mouth seemed like a crucial catalyst, transforming into strands of energy dragons that helped the Heavenly Demon Flames continuously pour into David Jones’s Arcane Star.
Not only did it help David Jones forge the long-awaited Flame Maza, but it also made his aura more powerful as his Arcane Star Cultivation surged from the later stage of Class V to the apex of Class V.
But more importantly, under the anomaly of the golden snake chants loudly, David Jones’s physical body broke through its limits and took a key step forward, elevating the Tigrex Dossier to the fourth layer and successfully advancing to a King-level powerhouse (Body Cultivation).
Rainbow and the other pet beasts watching from afar felt the strong momentum emanating from David Jones and their faces showed a hint of shock.
This might sound a bit exaggerated,
But not counting Lolo, among the pet beasts present, only Rainbow and Daphne, who had stepped into the apex of Class V, had a faint assurance that they might be able to defeat David Jones.
As for the Gluttonous Beast and Loona, they were now completely outstripped in strength by the Trainer.
If one were to be even more pessimistic, based on the momentum David Jones currently displayed, it was very likely that Rainbow and the other Contract Beasts would not even be able to defeat the Trainer.
Thinking of this, the little ones glanced at each other’s companions, their eyes filled with intense fighting spirit, especially the Gluttonous Beast, the weakest in terms of strength within the group.
For Contract Beasts, being unable to defeat the Trainer was indeed a great shame!
“Roar!” (No way!!)
The Gluttonous Beast let out an angry roar.
As a proud True Dragon, it couldn’t accept this harsh reality; it absolutely wouldn’t allow itself to become the one dragging its feet within the team.
Thus the Gluttonous Beast closed its draconic eyes and began to use the Mechanical Dragon Core to calculate the fastest way to advance, even if it entailed some risks.
On the other hand, Loona didn’t feel quite the same urgency as the Gluttonous Beast.
Because it knew its Future Achievement was immeasurable, an indispensable left and right arm for the Trainer.
So, Loona and the others were more concerned about the Trainer’s tribulation situation.
At this moment, half a day had already passed, and the Five Elements Annihilation Thunder Tribulation was about to descend.
David Jones had no spare energy to care about what his pet beasts were thinking; he looked up at the fully opened, divinely thunderous colossal eyes representing the domineering Heavenly might.
“What a pity that your Arcane Star didn’t break through Class VI, otherwise you would have a much better chance of surviving the Five Elements Annihilation Thunder Tribulation,” the divine egg remarked.
“Can all things ever go according to one’s wishes? To have advanced in flesh to King-level is more than enough for me to feel content,” David Jones replied.
David Jones stood up, his body which was much smaller compared to the thunderous colossal eyes, erupted with a terrifying power as profound as an abyss.
This fearless silhouette made the divine egg briefly recall a human hero hidden deep within its memories.
