Chapter 1932: Chapter 1012: Celestial Being (Part 2)

Li Shiming smiled and nodded. He took a single step, and his figure had already arrived outside the Grotto Heaven.

The space within the Grotto Heaven changed, isolating the IBMz15, the palace where Yin Shilan was, and the Cave Heaven Core together in a single space.

The other four Grotto Heavens separated out their Cave Heaven Cores alone, while the rest of the space remained unchanged.

Li Shiming appeared in the outside world, and he felt the repulsion coming from heaven and earth.

If he were to accept the Heavenly Tribulation like this, then it would be the same as before: the Heavenly Thunder he endured would keep falling without end, until he returned to the Grotto Heaven, or he fell.

But this time was different; he intended to advance to a Great Power.

He stood in the middle of the sea. Because of the previous harassment from the Shuangji Sect, he had no intention of changing to another place for his advancement.

With a slight movement of his mind, the ’Daoist Golden Lotus’ flew to his front. The ’Daoist Golden Lotus’ opened its petals, and the five Cave Heaven Space Gates were opened.

The ’Daoist Golden Lotus’ transformed into energy and flew into Li Shiming’s body, leaving behind the five Cave Heaven Space Gates.

The aura of the five Cave Heaven Space Gates was left completely unhidden and was sensed by heaven and earth. The aura of the five Grotto Heavens and Li Shiming’s own aura came from the same source; only with the five Grotto Heavens plus Li Shiming together could they be considered a single whole.

This was also why, when Li Shiming had left the Grotto Heaven alone before, all he received was bombardment from Heavenly Thunder and could not truly pass the Heavenly Tribulation.

Now, with the five Cave Heaven Space Gates opened and Li Shiming appearing in the outside world, heaven and earth deemed Li Shiming a single whole, and the true Heavenly Tribulation arrived along with that judgment.

Above the Shuangji Sect, thunderclouds rapidly gathered.

The Cultivators of the Shuangji Sect were suppressed by the terrifying aura of the thunderclouds; even the few Great Cultivators were unable to move in the slightest.

Not to mention the low-level Cultivators. During the process of the thunderclouds gathering, the low-level Cultivators had already fallen in great numbers.

"The Shuangji Sect is finished!" a Great Cultivator muttered to himself.

The Cultivators who had come to attend the Shuangji Sect’s grand event were truly suffering from an undeserved calamity. Some of them did not even know what had happened before they were suppressed to death by the aura of the Great Power Level thunderclouds.

Li Shiming would not concern himself with these matters; all of his mind and Spirit were devoted entirely to facing the Heavenly Tribulation.

Unlike before, when he could face the Heavenly Tribulation with ease, this time what he had to confront was a Great Power Level Heavenly Tribulation.

He did not summon the one hundred and eight ’Eternal Water Bears’. As long as he did not want to be blasted into dust on the spot, he could not summon the one hundred and eight ’Eternal Water Bears’.

If he really summoned the ’Eternal Water Bears’, perhaps his defensive power would be enhanced, but at the same time it would also raise the power of this Heavenly Tribulation to an extremely terrifying level.

For a Great Power Level Heavenly Tribulation, every little increase in power would result in multiple times more damage.

Perhaps the armor formed by one hundred and eight ’Eternal Water Bears’ could withstand ordinary Great Power Level attacks, but compared to the Heavenly Tribulation’s power that would be strengthened by the ’Eternal Water Bear’ armor, that bit of defense was simply not worth mentioning.

Li Shiming needed to face the Heavenly Tribulation alone, and he was still very confident about passing it.

He had five Grotto Heavens, and the energy within each Grotto Heaven was incomparably abundant.

He cultivated the ’Heavenly Human Technique’. Only after reaching the Great Power level would the might of the ’Heavenly Human Technique’ truly reveal itself.

The thunderclouds were still strengthening. By this time, the Great Cultivators of the Shuangji Sect had all been suppressed to death, and there was no longer any life left within the entire Shuangji Sect.

At last, once the thunderclouds had brewed sufficient power, a bolt of Heavenly Thunder fell from the sky and struck toward Li Shiming’s body.

Behind Li Shiming were the five Cave Heaven Space Gates, all of them open. The Heavenly Thunder struck his body, and the remaining power then entered into the five Grotto Heavens.

At the instant the Heavenly Thunder landed on him, Thunder Rule Runes surfaced all over his body, and his body transformed into thunder and lightning in an instant.

The power of the Heavenly Thunder was indeed extremely terrifying, but against the Thunder Body its effect was discounted.

The Heavenly Thunder power that entered the five Grotto Heavens was suppressed by the Grotto Heavens. At the cost of the Grotto Heavens consuming part of their energy, the Heavenly Thunder that entered did not cause any significant destruction.

The power of the second Heavenly Thunder increased by fifty percent, but he was still able to accept it, and as for the five Grotto Heavens, there was even less to worry about.

In a normal Great Power Heavenly Tribulation, the Grotto Heaven would have to bear all of the Heavenly Thunder’s remnant power.

But Li Shiming’s five Grotto Heavens shared the Heavenly Thunder’s remnant power; each Grotto Heaven only bore one-fifth of the remaining Heavenly Thunder. Not to mention that his Cave Heaven Energy was abundant; the energy accumulated over a hundred years far surpassed the amount that other Half-step Great Power Peak cultivators could accumulate over more than a thousand years. He had five such Grotto Heavens.

The third, the fourth, the fifth—bolt after bolt of Heavenly Thunder fell, with the power of each one increasing by another level.

During this process, Li Shiming did not dare make any action that might be seen as provocative. He very carefully accepted the Heavenly Thunder’s strikes.

Having gone through too many Heavenly Tribulations, he was very clear about the temperament of heaven and earth when they imposed a Heavenly Tribulation.

If he really dared to make any provocative move, then the power of the Heavenly Tribulation would not just increase by a few levels, but by ten times.

During the process of advancing to a Great Power, to make any provocative move was almost the same as having a ten-deaths-and-no-life situation.

This point was also recorded in the classics of the various superpowers. Many proud, top-tier geniuses had, at critical moments, made provocative moves and were given special "attention" by an even stronger Heavenly Tribulation, only to fall.

The reason Li Shiming had never let go of the Thunder Rules was precisely for this Heavenly Tribulation.

The Thunder Rules he grasped, and the comprehension of Thunder Rules within them, had been learned from a Half-step Great Power Heavenly Tribulation, making him more adept at resisting a Heavenly Tribulation. Adding the blessing of the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’, the Thunder Resistance Secret Method he performed had reached the Great Power level.

Even so, after he had passed through the seventh Heavenly Thunder, his body had already been pushed to its limit.

He felt that if the eighth Heavenly Thunder increased by a few more levels, he would not be able to endure it unscathed.

Now, he no longer dared to hold anything back.

"Heavenly Human!" Li Shiming shouted in a deep voice.

His body rapidly expanded, growing to a height of a hundred meters.

This was not an energy-formed body, but a real physical body. The Heavenly Human of the ’Heavenly Human Technique’ was precisely this state of his.

When his body reached a height of a hundred meters, correspondingly, his physique was also strengthened to a level that matched this body size.

Theoretically, the Heavenly Human state of the ’Heavenly Human Technique’ would have some flaws in the aspect of Spirit, because even in the Heavenly Human state of the ’Heavenly Human Technique’, the enhancement to the soul was limited. In terms of Spirit, it could at most reach five times the usual, and could not compare to the physique.

But Li Shiming possessed a hundred and ninety-one brains. When he activated the Heavenly Human state of the ’Heavenly Human Technique’, he infused the Spirit of a hundred brains into it, leaving no flaws at all in his Heavenly Human state.

The eighth Heavenly Thunder fell, violently striking Li Shiming, who was in the Heavenly Human state.

Li Shiming’s body swayed slightly, and only a few black marks were left on his skin.

Although he had passed the eighth Heavenly Thunder, he did not feel much joy.

He sensed the fury of heaven and earth. Because he had activated the Heavenly Human state and his body had become a hundred-meter Heavenly Human, heaven and earth felt provoked.

Thus, the interval before the ninth Heavenly Thunder was clearly extended, and the thunderclouds in the sky continued to expand.

Li Shiming gave a bitter smile of helplessness; he had long known that the Heavenly Human state would arouse the wrath of heaven and earth.

Even if the Heavenly Human state did nothing at all, it was still a form of provocation toward heaven and earth.

Taking advantage of this time, Li Shiming repeatedly cast multiple ’Innate Wood’ Divine Skills, as well as Thunder Resistance Secret Methods empowered by the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’.

At the instant the ninth Heavenly Thunder fell, he cursed silently in his heart.

The ninth Heavenly Thunder had at least fifteen times more power than the eighth. In his view, this was heaven and earth not wanting him to pass the Heavenly Tribulation.

The Heavenly Thunder that was even thicker than his Heavenly Human Body crashed down, and the skin of the Heavenly Human Body was vaporized on the surface, followed by the muscles beneath.

His terrifying physique, plus the immense life force bestowed by the ’Innate Wood’ Divine Skills, caused his recovery ability to reach an unimaginable degree.

The moment the Heavenly Thunder destroyed his body, the life force within him was already repairing the injured body.

Of course, the destructive power of the Heavenly Thunder was still stronger, but his powerful recovery also slowed the pace of that destruction to a degree.
