The closer Yang Xiong got to the Thunder God's Hammer, the greater the pressure he felt on his body. It was as if his entire body was about to melt. Every cell, every inch of skin, and even every wisp of his soul felt as if they had been struck by a heavy blow.
The Thunder God's Hammer was so powerful that Yang Xiong found it somewhat terrifying. It was even more terrifying than the power of the Douluo Continent's rules when the Deep Sea Demon Whale King sacrificed itself. He felt like he was enduring immense pain.
Yang Xiong didn't hesitate. He sat down near the Thunder God's Hammer and quietly began to sense the blood-red Heavenly Tribulation Thunder within his body.
Since acquiring the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, Yang Xiong had never been able to perfectly control it or truly unleash its power. He had only used it once, during a previous battle.
But it was precisely that time that Yang Xiong felt this Heavenly Tribulation Thunder seemed to have no restraints. It would attack indiscriminately, whether against enemies or himself. If his Martial Soul and soul were to directly collide with the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, he feared even he would be reduced to ashes. This was one of the reasons Yang Xiong rarely used the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder.
However, at this moment, under the shroud of the Thunder God's Hammer's blood-red lightning, the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder seemed to show a hint of fear, a hint of weakness.
Yang Xiong felt this was a rare opportunity, so he sat in place, summoned the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, and used its power to contend with the power of the Thunder God's Hammer.
The entire space instantly flashed with countless bolts of lightning, constantly colliding with each other.
Meanwhile, Yang Xiong was in extreme pain. His entire body felt as if it were being pierced by ten thousand arrows, or as if he were undergoing a lightning punishment once again.
At a critical moment, Yang Xiong's body seemed to subtly begin to change, as did his Martial Soul. Behind him was a massive blood-red figure, looking exactly like the Asura God.
Yang Xiong's Heavenly Tribulation Thunder came from deep within his body, but at this moment, it was like rootless duckweed, unable to contend with a true Super Divine Artifact.
Yang Xiong's entire focus was on controlling the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, carefully sensing the specific situation within it.
The Heavenly Tribulation Thunder looked like lightning, but it was completely different from the lightning-attribute Martial Soul Yang Xiong had previously absorbed, and also completely different from the lightning attribute controlled by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. Besides its extreme destructive power, it seemed to possess some kind of special force. This force was unlike any other force in the world; it felt incredibly stern, yet also unmoving like a mountain, not allowing anyone to touch it.
Any force that touched this Heavenly Tribulation Thunder seemed like an offense to a god, like an attempt to disrupt the rules of this world, and would be met with merciless strikes.
Yang Xiong's eyes widened in surprise. This Heavenly Tribulation Thunder was definitely not ordinary lightning-attribute energy. It came from the power of the entire Douluo Continent, and could even be said to be a combination of various forces, somewhat similar to the so-called power of order.
Yang Xiong used all his focus to sense the surroundings through the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder.
Indeed, the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder was also his Martial Soul. Yang Xiong's spiritual power could be injected into it, but Yang Xiong couldn't sense anything further away. It was as if he had left the Douluo Continent, as if he were in an independent world.
Seeing the two forces collide countless times, it felt as if his own body was colliding countless times, as if his body could collapse at any moment.
Just then, Yang Xiong suddenly felt a warmth. A blood-red energy seemed to emanate from the Asura Demon Sword, a unique killing intent. This killing intent gradually began to merge into Yang Xiong's Martial Soul, Asura.
Yang Xiong felt a moment of trance, and the scene before his eyes seemed to begin to change.
This was a special world, like an extremely vast planet. The planet was covered only in sand and soil, with no living creatures.
But as time passed, humans were born on the planet, and a certain kind of special creature was also born. These creatures gradually became extremely large, including dragons, phoenixes, qilin, and even various kinds of plants and animals.
All creatures were trying their best to become stronger, devouring the energy of this planet, and gradually becoming larger.
Especially a giant dragon, after countless tenacious struggles and countless times of becoming stronger, its length finally exceeded hundreds of thousands of meters. Its movements seemed capable of swallowing heaven and earth.
As all creatures became stronger, the planet seemed to become extremely prosperous, beginning to be filled with endless vitality.
And those creatures also became extremely powerful, each one breaking through their own limits, breaking through the restrictions of their bloodlines, like gods.
But as various creatures constantly fought, blood filled the air everywhere, and the planet began to suffer immense destruction. This destructive power even threatened to exceed its own limits. If this continued, the entire planet would likely be destroyed, and all creatures would have no hope of survival.
Just at this moment, the giant dragon let out a long roar to the sky. All creatures seemed to be summoned by the giant dragon, and their energy gathered together, forming a huge ball of light within all the energy.
This ball of light gradually began to transform, gradually becoming suitable for humans and Soul Beasts to live in, gradually forming an independent small world.
The birth of the small world seemed to indicate two completely different worlds. All powerful creatures migrated to the small world. The energy density in the small world was higher, and the energy level was also higher, making it more suitable for cultivation.
But whether it was the small world or the original planet, the energy was ultimately limited. It was impossible to produce an unlimited number of powerful beings. If this continued, it would likely decline sooner or later.
A blood-red light emanated from the giant dragon, completely separating the small world from the original planet, and even leading the small world away from the planet. However, there was still some special connection between the two.
And this blood-red lightning quickly enveloped the entire planet, suppressing everyone in this world. Everyone reached a point where they could no longer advance when they approached their limit, as if their progress had been cut off.
And the small world seemed to be under some special pressure, also forming some special rules, restricting the people in the small world as well, preventing all creatures from improving without limit.
And the power that separated the small world and the planet was precisely a kind of blood-red lightning. This lightning was produced by the giant dragon and jointly condensed by all powerful creatures, representing the unbreakable power of this world and the rules that this world could not violate.
...
When Yang Xiong opened his eyes again, his entire eyes had turned blood-red. Blood-red lightning had filled his entire eyes, and also surrounded his entire body.
Yang Xiong seemed to gradually begin to understand the origin of his Heavenly Tribulation Thunder. This was the rule of the world created by the gods of the God Realm using all their original power, and it was also the order that governed the entire Douluo Star and the God Realm.
That terrifying giant dragon should be the Dragon God, and the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder was not only the foundation of the gods of the God Realm, but also the will born of this Douluo Star, and even the thoughts of the entire Douluo Star.
At this moment, Yang Xiong felt that he didn't seem to be concerned about leaving the world of Douluo Star, but was actually still on Douluo Star itself, just separated by a special force.
This force was also the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, but this force came from the Thunder God's Hammer, preventing Yang Xiong from returning to the Thunder Valley where he came from.
Originally, with Yang Xiong's strength, he would have been completely unable to sense the changes in this world, nor could he break through this separation.
But just now, the Creation Power Yang Xiong possessed had perfectly sensed the entire process of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder's birth, the entire process of Douluo Star's birth, and even the entire process of the God Realm's birth. Under the Creation Power, the origin of anything could be seen.
At this moment, Yang Xiong felt as if he had merged into one with the rules of Douluo Star, as if he could sense everything happening on the Douluo Continent. It was as if he had become the rules of the Douluo Continent, as if he controlled all the power of Douluo Star. Anyone and anything was within his grasp.
As Yang Xiong's eyes opened and closed, the entire world seemed to begin to shake. His eyes seemed to be able to see through the void, as if he had become like a god, seeing the essence of all things.
Yang Xiong only felt his Soul Power soaring, as if he had broken through some restriction in this instant, as if he had reached unprecedented strength in this instant.
Level 99. Yang Xiong had finally broken through to Level 99. This was not only relying on Yang Xiong's own strength, but also on his Creation Power, and also on the immense pressure the Thunder God's Hammer had put on him, and even on his understanding of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder.
It was extremely difficult for a Soul Master to break through from Level 98 to Level 99. Even a Soul Master with excellent talent would need hundreds of years of cultivation. Every Level 99 Limit Douluo had unimaginable opportunities, and even needed to undergo various life-and-death trials.
Yang Xiong, however, in the process of his special Martial Soul, Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, colliding with the Thunder God's Hammer, and his body undergoing countless lightning forging processes of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, his body and Soul Power endured endless power, and finally broke through this last level.
And any Soul Master who wanted to break through Level 99 needed their body and Martial Soul to achieve perfect fusion, needed to master the power of this world, and needed to gradually begin to understand the rules of the world.
Now, Yang Xiong himself was a little surprised. Through the baptism of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, he finally began to understand the essence of this Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, finally allowed his body to perfectly merge with the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, and finally broke through the bottleneck to reach Level 99.
Yang Xiong stood up directly, a hint of joy in his eyes: "I guessed correctly, I finally succeeded. From now on, no one can stop my progress, no one can stop me from becoming a god."
As Yang Xiong's words fell, the entire space seemed to be completely under his control. The blood-red lightning that had previously repelled him had now become something in Yang Xiong's palm. Even the Thunder God's Hammer could no longer pose any threat to him.
Even the entire Douluo Star seemed to let out a terrifying roar at this moment, and the heavens and earth shook in this instant.
