Chapter 622 The Holy Flame Knife Emerges
"Boom!" Without any time to catch her breath, another identical tribinary thunderbolt descended from the sky.
"Divine consciousness!" Tang San cried in a deep voice.
Immediately after, a beam of red light shot up into the sky from above Pretty Girl's head, transforming into the shape of a knife in midair and slashing at the golden lightning that had descended from above.
The lightning scattered in all directions, and the red blade light, as if baptized by the lightning, turned into a glimmering crimson gold.
Pretty Girl let out a muffled grunt as the blade light returned to her. It was the Divine Weapon Sacred Flame Blade.
The Sacred Flame Blade is one of the rare divine tools that can be integrated into the divine consciousness, becoming a part of it. During the tribulation and with the help of the lightning, it could also fully integrate into Pretty Girl's body.
The Sacred Flame Blade is also a means to communicate with the Asura God's Sword, assisting the Asura God's Sword. Using it alone to face the lightning tribulation and wielding divine consciousness to slash at the lightning, the Sacred Flame Blade, now tinged with a hint of the aura of the Asura God's Sword, proved to be extremely effective.
The sight made the Peacock Demon King's eyes gleam with excitement. What a divine tool!
Five of the forty-eight bolts of lightning had passed, and Pretty Girl herself was evolving rapidly. One could see that intricate patterns began to emerge on the white-golden Peacock Golden Crown on her forehead, and there was a thorough transformation occurring in the aura radiating from her body.
"Boom!" Four golden bolts of lightning appeared at once and plummeted abruptly.
Thanks to the time fought for by the Sacred Flame Blade, the silver peacock had once again recovered, soaring into the sky, with the starlight brought by the Heaven Shifting Stars shining even brighter than before. Although struck down again, the way she faced the lightning now seemed somewhat more composed.
This was the result of Pretty Girl's own cultivation base evolving, the improvement in her cultivation made it a bit easier for her to resist the lightning tribulation.
This time, although the electric light still fell, Pretty Girl's injuries did not worsen.
After continuous confrontations with the lightning tribulation, she was getting experienced, adjusting her abilities, and directly facing the coming of the tribulation. This was a display of her foundation and strength.
The robbery clouds in the sky were swirling with golden light, falling into a temporary calm again, but with past experience, one could understand that the power of the subsequent lightning tribulations would only become stronger.
Pretty Girl opened her eyes, and a faint glint of gold flashed through her beautiful eyes. She turned her head to Tang San, now somewhat understanding why he had previously told her to absorb some of the thunderbolts. Only now that the real tribulation had begun did she truly feel its mystery.
Although the thunderbolts were terrifying and formidable, when they merged with her body, the benefits were evident. It was a feeling of complete transformation, fusing her Spiritual Power with her body, elevating it. Stimulated by those thunderbolts, her body was continuously transforming, as long as it could endure the relentless attack of the lightning.
Tang San nodded at her, "Give it your all, I've got your back."
Pretty Girl gently pressed her hands on the ground at her sides and leapt up. Her hands formed a seal in front of her chest, and silver light flickered around her body. An enormous amount of space power began to converge toward her, led by her now-transforming divine consciousness.
The subsequent lightning tribulations would only grow stronger, and she didn't know how many were left. However, at this moment, pride shone in her eyes. She was determined to face the lightning tribulation with her own strength, rather than always relying on Tang San.
"Boom!" The sky once again erupted with deafening roars, as the vast expanse of cataclysmic clouds seemed to expand further, bringing with it even more rampant golden lightning fluctuations.
One after another, terrifying forces of thunder converged in the air, as six golden streaks of electricity almost simultaneously flickered; the next instant, a dazzling thunderbolt flashed down.
Pretty Girl let out a cold huff, her hands forming seals and drawing upwards, while at the same time, her feet trod upon the Black Yellow, dancing gracefully against the backdrop of thunder.
Around her body, the power of space was immediately set into a special rhythm by her dance, with rings of silver light rippling out around her.
Tang San could clearly feel that a spatial field had formed around Pretty Girl; within this field, there were unpredictable spatial fluctuations.
The potent thunderbolt of the Six Harmonies was absorbed into it and instantly disappeared. All that could be seen were layers of silver light expanding outward, carrying with it streaks of golden lightning, which in a moment seemed to use the power of space to disperse the thunderbolt into hundreds of parts before gradually spreading out.
What a Heavenly Mechanism Dance! Tang San inwardly exclaimed, his figure flickering as he moved to an even farther distance.
At this moment, this small island was Pretty Girl's sole stage. Each of her movements seemed to embody the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, and yet they were so graceful. Every step she took, every glance she gave, as if they were influencing all the spatial fluctuations between heaven and earth. Those rings of silver haloes, far from diminishing after dissolving the thunder, shone even more brilliantly, drawing in more of the power of space from the air towards her.
Undoubtedly, this was her spiritual power transforming into divine consciousness, and with it, a new understanding of the power of space.
The Peacock Demon King watched from afar, its gaze growing somewhat vacant. When the sixth thunderbolt fell, it knew that all its previous preparations were probably in vain. The Heavenly Mechanism Dance, this was the true Heavenly Mechanism Dance! It was at this moment that it truly understood why its ancestor once became an Emperor, and why it could not.
Without the soul of space power guided by the Heavenly Mechanism Dance, at this moment, Pretty Girl was the messenger of space, the master of space, and the guardian of space. Even as a Great Demon King at the peak, it could not achieve what Pretty Girl was doing now. She was like an angel dancing gracefully in space; thousands of spatial fluctuations so encircled her, in between heaven and earth. Although compared to the golden thunder in the sky, the continuously spreading rings of silver ripples on the ground were so insignificant, these tiny slivers of silver, complemented the gold above and shone together brilliantly.
Tang San gradually understood why the lightning tribulation faced by Pretty Girl was the Six Harmonies and Eight Desolate Golden Slaughter Tribulation. Only a lightning tribulation as sharply powerful as the Golden Slaughter could possibly break through spatial barriers. Similarly, by absorbing the Golden Slaughter, Pretty Girl would add to her already unpredictable space a sharpness of power.
"Boom!" The seventh thunderbolt was almost hot on the heels of the last, the combination of seven, a step stronger than before.
Yet Pretty Girl seemed unperturbed, her footwork as orderly as ever, her silver halo rippling. Countless fine shards of golden lightning flowed with the silver light, expanding to a larger realm, making the silver light all the more brilliant. Pretty Girl herself was always surrounded by golden light, but through countless spatial transfers, she was able to weaken its destructive force.
The Heavenly Mechanism Dance, truly a divine skill indeed!
From the depths of his heart, Tang San admired, also slightly relieved. Such a tribulation would greatly benefit Pretty Girl. What she was employing was not just the Heavenly Mechanism Dance, but also the ability of Heaven Shifting, the two core and mighty skills of the Peacock Demon Clan. What better way to truly comprehend and understand them than under the immense threat of lightning tribulation? If she continued to perceive in this way, once her tribulation succeeded, the fusion of the two divine skills would be complete.
"Boom!"
Eight as one, nine as one. The thunder came one after another, but Pretty Girl defended against each.
The dance of the Heavenly Mechanism Dance grew faster, causing the silver halo that initially had a diameter of ten meters to gradually widen to a hundred meters, until her figure could barely be seen. However, the spatial field she influenced became ever more powerful. The entire space within was full of unpredictable changes, carrying all the wondrous transformations that only space power could bring.
In this instant, Pretty Girl's understanding and perception of space had ascended to a God-level scale. Even Tang San, watching from the side, couldn't help but deepen his understanding of the Peacock Transformation.
