Some youngsters with high potential also nursed powerful ambitions. They’d accumulated strength in secret all this time. But today, those who’d found favor in heaven’s eyes were all targeted by the tribulation! Far away in Silver City, Li Hao didn’t care about those people at all. He hadn’t purposefully set his sights on them. It was just that since he was the heavenly will now, so were these people a part of him. The chaos tribulation naturally targeted everyone. One could only say that these people had chosen their path. One would know if they were endowed with heavenly favor. If they really wanted to be rid of it, the Skystar Commander Office had announced that any graced by the heavens could come to the office for help. With how long they’d been searching for these people, everyone knew of this option. And yet, these people hadn’t gone to the office. Since they hadn’t, that meant they had their own ideas in mind. As such, this outcome was the result of their own decisions. Li Hao naturally wouldn’t give them one iota of attention! He could barely save himself, how would he have the energy to spare for people who weren’t of one heart with him? Countless thunderbolts descended, individually much weaker than before. Whether it was Zheng Yu, Li Daoheng, the Red Moon exalted emperor, or Li Hao himself... All of them were struck by the tribulation! The thunderbolts were still formidable, despite being spread out over more targets. Zheng Yu spat out blood, the whip in his hand crumbling away. Li Daoheng’s longsword also spontaneously shattered. The thunderbolts were threatening to annihilate his replica of sword dao. Meanwhile, the Red Moon exalted emperor roared with rage and punched outward. Destructive force shimmered over his fist and turned his hand into ashes! If even a half step emperor was having so much trouble, it went without saying what straits the others were in. Li Hao was also struck by the thunder and lightning. The stars twinkled amid a loud roar, but he was so much better off than before. “That was the fifth thunderbolt!” the young man smiled. The others grimaced in response. Little bastard! They’d rejoiced that the thunder and lightning couldn’t be Li Hao’s helper, but now... this was so damned unlucky! “Are you two so trash that you let him become the heavenly will so easily?” the Red Moon exalted emperor couldn’t help but snarl. Although the heavenly will was already dead, it was so defeating that Li Hao had encompassed the world so easily! What had those two been doing all these years? It was just the fifth thunderbolt! Zheng Yu raised an eyebrow and tilted his head up at the sky. The sixth thunderbolt was about to land. “The heavenly will is just a tool in everyone’s eyes. None of us who truly wish to rise above would seek to become it.” He shook his head with a wry laugh. “It existed to begin with and we were going to capture it. This cannot be blamed on us, Exalted Emperor. Not to mention, it was under our control to begin with. So what if it’s someone else now? “It’s fine. We can work together to disperse the thunder and lightning. It shouldn’t be able to smite all of us dead, so this can be a celebratory gift for Li Hao. We are congratulating him becoming the heavenly will of Silver Moon!” He was easygoing enough that he started finding humor in the situation. At the same time, another Li Daoheng appeared in the immaterial dao universe. This one was even more mystical than the one with a sword on his back. It was like he was made of a hundred million stars. He stood at the entrance of the immaterial dao universe and looked at the crowd, Li Hao in the air, and the river of chaos in the distance. “How interesting!” He broke into a smile. “What a pity that the chaos tribulation ruined everything. It rather reminds me that I cannot act against the will of chaos! Li Hao, you’ve certainly got some nerve!” The young man didn’t respond. He simply looked quietly at the sky. Another thunderbolt quickly descended, so fast that there was no time to react! Multiple powerhouses were once more struck by the thunder and lightning! Li Hao’s great star crumbled, then swiftly gathered again. He extracted endless energy from various places in the world. The young man’s face appeared throughout the land. “We coalesce the stars anew!” he boomed! Multiple stars were lit in the sky. Massive dragons took to the air and shot for the stars overhead. Li Hao was still combining the two daos! The source of thɪs content is 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩 He didn’t give up on his plan even after becoming the heavenly will. 170 stars were fully combined in the blink of an eye and shoes brightly with illumination. They even contained some hints of thunder and lightning, as well as destructive force. “Damn it!” raged the anxious Red Moon exalted emperor. He was furious! The sixth thunderbolt had directly connected with him and split open his skin. Although he was a replica, he was no different from a real person. The blow nearly rang a scream from his throat. Despite being an exalted emperor for so many years, it was his first time being struck by lightning. While he’d initially suffered some torment in the seal, this level of pain was unprecedented. And it wasn’t even supposed to be his burden to bear! How could this not infuriate him! But he didn’t even have time to take revenge. The seventh bolt was hot on the heels of the sixth! It was even more terrifying than the one before it! Li Hao clucked his tongue with astonishment. If it wasn’t for him becoming the heavenly will, the seventh thunderbolt would’ve absolutely annihilated him, assuming he even survived the fifth and sixth. This tribulation really wouldn't stop until it killed him! Hopefully there’s only nine bolts! If there’s more... It’ll all be over if it strikes everyone dead! Another explosion sounded. This time, the half step emperors looked to be at the end of their tether. “Senior Celestial Pole, you... should join us too!” Li Hao suddenly said. Celestial Pole blinked with astonishment. The eighth thunderbolt was about to land—there was somehow one over his head as well! His expression changed drastically and he grit his teeth. “I just helped you!” he cursed loudly. “I’m afraid that we’ll all die if you don’t help with the load of the eighth bolt.” Li Hao was quite resigned. “All of Silver Moon will be a smoking hulk as well! Then it’ll all be over. We’re all in the same boat right now...” “Your wife and Bei Wu are also half step emperors...” Celestial Pole raged. Why don’t you drag them into this too? Li Hao couldn’t be bothered with the unspoken accusation. Why do you think?! They’re just fake half step emperors. A single thunderbolt will be the end of them! Of course this has to be spread to a real half step emperor like you! The eighth thunderbolt was upon them. Celestial Pole screamed before the others could. It reverberated through the entire world, a shrill shriek of anguish. “Ouch! It hurts! So much! Fuck you and your ancestors, Li Hao...” shouted Celestial Pole. This was too much! Li Hao didn’t reply. He didn’t want to do this either, but... since he’d been backed into a corner, everyone could join in the fun. I really didn’t want to do this! “Senior... we need to pray that there’s only nine bolts... Otherwise, this thing will be the death of us after all our in-fighting. That would be such a loss. I find it so weird—how did a thing come to be?” Li Hao was at his wit’s end. An absolutely gigantic thunderbolt appeared in the world; it enshrouded all of Silver Moon. Thunderclouds shifted ominously in the sky. This seemed to be the last strike from the tribulation. The entire world was covered by thunder and lightning! If someone happened to be standing outside the Star Gate right this moment, they would see Silver Moon world blotted out by a patch of thunderclouds. More of them were gathering in the chaos universe. If it wasn’t for Silver Moon being sealed away and only a small portion drifting through the tightly shut Star Gate, the thunderclouds enveloping the world would kill any manner of powerhouse. How was a chaos tribulation so easily endured? In an insignificant part of the murky chaos, the last bolt from a tribulation struck a world. Some of the thunderclouds began dispersing after that, as if acknowledging the uniqueness of this patch. When all was clear, Silver Moon world seemed to have expanded slightly. It’d swallowed some of the chaos domain! The massive thunderbolt crackled within Silver Moon world, so forceful that the world changed color from its fury. Countless Li Haos were born and disintegrated, disintegrated and born again. Stars twinkled in the sky. There were now 179 of them, the final 180th was the star of time that Li Hao had taken residence in. This star was currently enveloped by a dense expanse of thunder and lightning. Off in the distance, the Red Moon exalted emperor’s replica cursed up a storm. Half of his body had been destroyed. The same went for Zheng Yu and Li Daoheng. They were also surrounded by thunder and lightning! “Fuck you motherfucker!” Celestial Pole hadn’t stopped cursing from the moment he was dragged into this. “I’ll get you for this, Li Hao!” He was incomparably strong and if it wasn’t for him, the rest might all be dead by now. As it were, they were spared from death, but not living torment. If he could, Li Hao would love to use this opportunity to end Zheng Yu and the others. But an equal amount of devastation was split among all of them. If they were to die, Li Hao would likely be dead as well. Thus, he could only bring in Celestial Pole to ensure his own survival! Seeing as the thunderclouds are beginning to disperse and the powerhouses struggling to catch their breath, a surge of deathly intent and boxing intent flared! The Great Li king and Lin Hongyu had been waiting all this time. They rushed the two half step emperors without another word! They were going to strike while the iron was hot! It was such a rare opportunity! What should they do, if not kill their enemies now? Their borrowed strength was receding at a furious pace. If they didn’t kill their opponents, Li Hao would be in trouble once the duo found their footing again. Although the young man was the heavenly will now, his strength did not seem to have reached the half step emperor level. Zheng Yu abruptly opened his eyes, having immediately suppressed the destructive power ranging over him. He grunted and rushed for the end of the sky—that was where Li Hao’s star of time was located. He didn’t raise a hand against anyone or care about anyone. He gleefully shot for Li Hao! The result he wanted already seemed to be in sight. Although it was very surprising how it’d come about, Silver Moon world seemed to be different from before after the chaos tribulation. The immense genius that was Li Hao had become the heavenly will, which in turn raised the world’s potential. This minor world was very different from how it’d been moments ago! If he seized the heavenly will and devoured the world, he would verify his dao as an exalted emperor! His potential would also be much greater than before. The tribulation that Li Hao had summoned was on par with that of a dead exalted emperor becoming part of the world. In that case, Zheng Yu could ignore the Red Moon exalted emperor! He just needed to eliminate Li Hao first!
