I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

This time, Shen Ming does not intend to pay the price of failing his tribulation.

He didn't act impulsively as outsiders might think; on the contrary, he made thorough preparations.

The Heavenly Sword Realm, combined with the immortal sword in his hand, and two Dao Hearts.

Faced with the waterfall-like lightning tribulation, Shen Ming used the third move of the Tribulation Sword.

"Should be robbed!"

The man and the sword formed an upward cone shape, enduring the relentless onslaught of lightning.

During this process, the lightning plasma separated and gradually merged into Shen Ming's body.

As if divine weapons had been forged with celestial gold, Shen Ming's body shone brightly, his blood and qi surged, and his eyes reflected lightning.

At that moment, the Sun-Shooting Arrow arrived.

This arrow, like a celestial dragon chasing the sun, possesses boundless power and is bound to trigger a heavenly tribulation, causing devastating destruction.

At the critical moment, Shen Ming decisively drew his sword, the momentum of which seemed to bring forth the thunder of heavenly tribulation.

In the dim light, they seemed to see lightning coalescing into a ferocious beast, about to swallow the Heavenly Dragon whole.

The arrow that shot down the sun flew weakly and limply to the side.

Yang Xuanji took a deep breath. He had considered all sorts of possibilities, but this was the one he had never thought of.

"Did he withstand the first heavenly tribulation and then use its remaining power to neutralize the Champion Marquis's attack?"

"This is something that cannot be done by human beings at all."

"Similar to the Heavenly Tribulation Sword of the Eternal Emperor's Son, but not powerful enough."

"But its exquisite craftsmanship surpasses that of the Eternal Emperor."

The nobles were full of amazement, feeling that they had truly broadened their horizons today.

At this moment, the second bolt of heavenly lightning was poised to strike.

There are six tribulations in total to break through to the King level, among which the third and sixth tribulations are more powerful.

The second bolt of lightning shone even brighter, eclipsing the world and casting a shadow of impending doom.

Yang Xuanji fired three Sun-Chasing Divine Arrows in one breath, their power surging through the Milky Way and creating giant waves.

"Calamity Sword - Breaking Calamity!"

Just like before, Shen Ming faced both the heavenly tribulation and the deadly divine arrows.

The difference this time is that it's even crazier.

The unabsorbed lightning plasma burned on the surface of Shen Ming's body, and the blazing lightning fire instantly burned through the powerful body of the Ancient Sacred Body.

Shen Ming groaned, his brows furrowing as if he were enduring immense pain.

Without letting up, he drew his sword while it was still burning, and golden blood mixed with the lightning and fire, creating an extremely beautiful scene.

The three arrows that shot down the sun turned to ashes under the sword's edge.

This time, Yang Xuanji remained very calm, with a smug look on her face.

"The tragedy of the weak is that they struggle and seek impossible hope," he mocked.

Shen Ming still has four heavenly lightning bolts to face, and the next one will be devastating.

He possessed numerous sun-shooting arrows, as well as the ultimate technique, Nine Stars in a Row, which allowed him to fire nine divine arrows simultaneously.

On the contrary, Shen Ming no longer has any chance to make a mistake!

"I understand, he's trying to emulate the Eternal Emperor's Son, but he clearly hasn't mastered it!"

"The opponent was too strong. The Champion Marquis, back then, the Eternal Emperor Prince only killed commanders and generals, none of them were worth mentioning."

"The next bolt of heavenly lightning will determine the outcome."

The third bolt of heavenly lightning, second only to the sixth, is several times more powerful than the previous two.

The tribulation clouds grew thicker at a visible speed, and the lightning plasma resembled a giant beast lurking within them.

In an instant, a roaring sound rang out, like the angry roar of the heavens.

The third bolt of lightning took shape: an incredibly thick chain of light surrounded by leaping arcs of electricity. Wherever it passed, the air was instantly ionized, producing crackling and popping sounds.

Yang Xuanji had a trick up his sleeve, and shot out six Sun-Shooting Divine Arrows.

Shen Ming is in a bad situation.

But his expression remained resolute; there were risks involved, and he didn't like things to be absolute.

The Great Luo Sword emitted an extremely dazzling light, a light that seemed capable of piercing the heavens.

The patterns on the sword flowed with lightning like rivers, and the light grew brighter and brighter, eventually forming a balance of power with the overwhelming heavenly lightning.

With a low roar, he swung his sword fiercely, and a lightning sword aura a hundred feet long shot out from the tip of the sword, rushing towards the heavenly thunder like a dazzling lightning dragon baring its fangs and claws.

When the lightning sword light collided with the heavenly thunder, a deafening roar erupted between heaven and earth, the sound like a great bell echoing across the sky.

The area within a hundred miles was illuminated by this light as if it were daytime.

"What a powerful sword!"

Everyone was astonished that Shen Ming could do this; under normal circumstances, he really could have successfully overcome the tribulation.

But now, six sun-shooting arrows are arriving one after another.

Shen Ming had anticipated this, and his swordplay suddenly changed.

Man, sword, and heaven are connected, unleashing a devastating energy.

Wherever the gaze falls, lightning bolts shoot forth.

"Heavenly Tribulation Sword!"

With a single swing of his sword, he harnessed the heavenly lightning to his advantage!

Amidst gasps of alarm, the heavenly lightning changed direction and target, sweeping across everything and engulfing the Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow, engulfing Yang Xuanji with overwhelming force.

Yang Xuanji became the one undergoing tribulation, and without any preparation, he found himself amidst the lightning.

Through the lightning, one could barely make out his frenzied, savage roars and screams inside.

The sound was intermittent, drowned out by the thunderous roar, and only a few words could be barely heard.

“…This is impossible!”

When the lightning dissipated, everyone involuntarily covered their mouths, their eyes wide open.

This sword strike tore through Yang Xuanji's Battle Saint Armor, leaving the leather armor underneath equally tattered, and his entire body covered in blood.

He resembled a wounded beast, his eyes bloodshot and veins bulging.

"Who exactly are you!" Yang Xuanji asked in a deep voice.

Judging from the sound, it wasn't a fatal injury, but it was a significant blow.

“Me? The Divine Son of the Jiang Family. If you wish, you can also call me the Eternal Emperor.” Shen Ming said.

He was bound to kill the Marquis of Champion, so there was no need for him to hide his identity.

The Panyue Dynasty launched this hunting war in order to isolate the Eternal Academy.

Then he, the eternal imperial prince, will take everything and kill the champion marquis!

Eternal Prince!

As soon as those four words were uttered, everyone who had attended the Imperial Ceremony recognized him.

"Hasn't he already perished?!"

"Unbelievable. I don't know if he's dead or not, but he did fail to transcend the tribulation back then. If you fail the double tribulation, even the Heavenly Dao will abandon you. How could he still become a king?"

"Then he might actually kill the Marquis of Champion!"

Shen Ming successfully survived the third heavenly lightning strike. After being tempered by the lightning magma, he had become a half-king.

The next three bolts of heavenly lightning, especially the sixth one, could potentially kill Yang Xuanji!

Yang Xuanji panicked. Even if he used the Nine Stars Alignment at this point, it would still result in mutual destruction.

He is the supreme champion!

He wanted to escape, but the battlefield was blocked by eight battle flags, so he couldn't leave for the time being.

Fortunately, he was the one who planted the battle flag, so he could still leave.

"Heavenly Dao, come together!"

How could Shen Ming let him leave? He shouted towards the sky!

Heavens! This is defying the will of Heaven!

This behavior is no less than seeking someone to help you overcome a tribulation; Heaven will punish you severely.

As expected, the fourth, fifth, and sixth bolts of heavenly lightning began to brew simultaneously.

And this is exactly what Shen Ming wanted!
