CHAPTER 476: CHAPTER 458: RETURN TO INFINITE THUNDER RADIANCE

The present is not like the past.

When Wang Xu first experienced the baptism of Infinite Thunder Radiance, he was still in the Immortal Chaos Realm.

After tempering his body, it reached the Demigod Chaos Realm.

But this time, Wang Xu is at the Elite Initial Celestial God Realm; his physical body has completely transcended the Peak Initial Celestial God Realm, enough to rival the Hundred Generations Celestial God.

"Last time, you barely withstood thirty-six bolts of Infinite Thunder Radiance. This time, I wonder if you can endure seventy-two bolts or a hundred and eight bolts?"

You Ji smiled slyly, "I bet you won’t withstand a hundred and eight bolts of Infinite Thunder Radiance!"

You Ji knew well that the strength of Infinite Thunder Radiance lies in its ever-increasing power.

The first thirty-six bolts each increase in power slightly, but after thirty-six bolts, the harm of the radiance will sharply escalate, increasing several dozen times!

After seventy-two bolts, the power becomes incredibly terrifying.

Even prodigies at the Peak Initial Celestial God Realm may not fully withstand seventy-two bolts, and You Ji’s bet of a hundred and eight bolts clearly shows he understands Wang Xu’s body’s extreme resilience.

"Fine, if I win, give me all the Constant Force you possess. If I lose, I’ll give you a hundred Celestial God Realm corpses to devour, how about that?"

Wang Xu accepted without hesitation.

"No problem! It’s a deal! But first, the corpses must be intact at over eighty percent, don’t try to fool me with tattered remains; too much Life Force and Primordial Qi would be lost, it’s not worth it."

"It’s settled then."

Wang Xu nodded.

You Ji had long known the existence of Constant Force even before Wang Xu came into contact with it, thus he preserved a large amount of it amid his devouring.

Especially the abundant Ling Spirits he devoured in Li Long Palace, in which the Constant Force was purer and denser.

But with this much Constant Force, You Ji neither uses it nor gives it to Wang Xu; he simply hoards it himself.

When Wang Xu asked for it, You Ji, with a shrewd look, demands a trade, refusing otherwise.

This was a golden opportunity; if Wang Xu won, with a large amount of Constant Force, his "Emperor’s Extreme Divine Suppression Record" might have a chance to be cultivated to the Second Realm.

...

He chose a desolate place, with very few Sea Beasts in the Sea of Immeasurable.

Halting his figure, Wang Xu took a deep breath, then unleashed the aura of the Initial Celestial God Realm.

BOOM!!

Above the cloudless Sea of Immeasurable, suddenly thick clouds rolled in, massive thunder serpents roamed within the clouds, and the buzzing thunderous sound reverberated through heaven and earth.

The power of Infinite Thunder Radiance was steadily enhancing, far exceeding the range an ordinary Initial Celestial God Realm should endure.

After Wang Xu cultivated the "Emperor’s Extreme Divine Suppression Record," his Life Level rose; the Primordial Power aura he emitted was vastly different from those of the same grade in the Initial Celestial God Realm.

Even the Infinite Thunder Radiance sensed this clearly, furiously brewing its thunderous might.

"Heh heh, here comes another good show!"

You Ji pulled out a chair, lounged on it, and while relishing fruits, seemed to be watching a performance, waiting for the spectacle to unfold.

CRACK!

Lightning flashed fiercely, illuminating the entire sky.

A bolt of thunder as thick as a roaming dragon, with a shocking diameter of three hundred meters, fiercely struck toward Wang Xu.

BANG!

The heavy Infinite Sea Water roared upwards, and Wang Xu’s body was swallowed by the lightning, submerged as if he had perished within it, leaving no trace.

This colossal bolt of thunder blasted the Sea of Immeasurable for several tens of seconds, showing no sign of withdrawing.

But after these seconds, the thunder’s strength began to wane, reluctantly retracting, dissipating into the void.

The world cleared up again, the white expanse now colored.

As the brilliance faded away, Wang Xu’s silhouette, once enveloped in the thunder, emerged from the shadows.

His black robe gone, Wang Xu stood entirely naked.

Yet he wasn’t charred and pitiful as You Ji had predicted. Instead, his body radiated a glimmering Golden Light, and a robust Life Force emanated from him.

"Hmm, the first strike weathered perfectly, not a scratch."

You Ji chewed on a grape, nodding slightly in approval.

CRACK!

Immediately, a second, even more terrifying bolt of Infinite Thunder Radiance fell upon him.

The sea water of the Infinite hadn’t calmed, yet towering waves arose once more, the Sea Beasts within, unwilling to stay any longer, fled the area in haste.

The thunder drowned Wang Xu’s form once more.

But within this annihilating thunder, Wang Xu felt no pain, as if basking in holy light, he closed his eyes, richly experiencing it.

The second bolt of Infinite Thunder Radiance still had no effect on Wang Xu.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!

As if kindling Infinite Thunder Radiance’s reluctance, the clouds above became denser and denser, and the thunder’s might grew ever stronger.

By the time the fourteenth bolt of Infinite Thunder Radiance descended, its earth-shattering power would make even ordinary Celestial God Realm figures retreat in fear.

This was no longer ordinary Infinite Thunder Radiance.

The Infinite Thunder Radiance exists to chastise beings defying the heavens in the Sea of Immeasurable; their power constantly grows, disturbing the sea’s peace eternally, and the radiance’s purpose is to purge these dreadful beings.

Yet, the heavens always leave a thread of life for beings.

A typical Initial Celestial God Realm only needs to withstand seventy-two bolts of Infinite Thunder Radiance to consider having been chastised, allowing voluntary departure.

But the fourteen strands of Infinite Thunder Radiance that Wang Xu now endures are enough to rival the seventy-two strands they faced!

This is where the gap lies.

The Infinite Thunder Radiance became infuriated; it sensed Wang Xu’s strength and took every one of his actions as provocation, frantically increasing its power.

It no longer left Wang Xu a sliver of hope!

This kind of heaven-defying existence provoked the jealousy of the heavens.

Stronger and stronger strands of Infinite Thunder Radiance fell upon Wang Xu, hoping to destroy him.

But Wang Xu remained utterly unmoved; no matter how much thunder radiance came upon him, he stood steadfast as a mountain.

A moment later...

The thirty-sixth strand of Infinite Thunder Radiance descended.

Accompanied by a blinding light that illuminated the entire world, Wang Xu’s whole body, shrouded in golden light, remained unscathed.

"Thirty-six strands of Infinite Thunder Radiance passed, the next thunder radiance will surely be something to behold."

You Ji took a hefty bite of a banana and smirked slyly.

Buzz~~

After the thirty-sixth strand of thunder radiance fell, the rolling black clouds in the sky did not continue to release thunder but rumbled instead, as if brewing an even greater thunder.

Just as expected.

Rumble...

A mighty thunder, completely beyond the endurance of an Initial Celestial God Realm and comparable to a strike of a Hundred Generations Celestial God Realm, crashed down!

Wang Xu was once again enveloped by the dazzling light, causing the Infinite Sea Water to surge like a massive tsunami.

It was as if a natural disaster, grand and magnificent, and no Celestial God Realm could come out unscathed under such thunder.

A moment later, the thunder radiance receded.

"He actually remains unscathed?"

While enjoying a pear, You Ji suddenly sat up, slightly astonished.

You Ji knew Wang Xu’s strength better than anyone. This Infinite Thunder Radiance was evidently different from before, and normally, Wang Xu might not withstand even seventy-two strands of thunder.

Do not underestimate these seventy-two strands of thunder; compared to ordinary Infinite Thunder Radiance, they have undergone a qualitative leap.

Just as the difference between the Mixed Universe Realm and the Celestial God Realm, the power of the thunder radiance descended by the Infinite Thunder Radiance naturally differs.

Otherwise, with the previous Infinite Thunder Radiance endured by Wang Xu’s Immortal Chaos Realm, let alone one hundred and eight strands, even three hundred and sixty strands of Infinite Thunder Radiance wouldn’t shake Wang Xu in the slightest.

This is the difference brought about by realms.

At this moment, Wang Xu’s realm was at the Initial Celestial God Realm, but the Infinite Thunder Radiance had completely ranked him among the Hundred Generations Celestial Gods!

Thus, all thunder radiance descended as if targeting a powerhouse of the Hundred Generations Celestial God.

Therefore, under such intense thunder, You Ji judged that Wang Xu might not even endure seventy-two strands of thunder.

But the result was beyond You Ji’s expectations.

The thirty-seventh strand of Infinite Thunder Radiance still left Wang Xu unscathed.

This was a watershed, an attack with doubled power of the Infinite Thunder Radiance, yet it still had no effect on Wang Xu!

"Has his physical body become even stronger?"

You Ji was puzzled, then suddenly raised his hand and noticed that his initially faint Phantom Body had further solidified.

You Ji laughed at once.

"This kid, incredibly lucky, actually broke through the ’Emperor’s Extreme Divine Suppression Record’ under such circumstances!"

You Ji was right. At this moment, Wang Xu, with hands in unison and legs crossed, was in the state of cultivating the ’Emperor’s Extreme Divine Suppression Record.’

Because Wang Xu discovered a significant secret—the Infinite Thunder Radiance contained Constant Force!

This Constant Force was initially very weak, but as the thunder radiance’s power grew stronger, the Constant Force became greater and greater.

In this way, Wang Xu tried to absorb this Constant Force and store it, but failed.

But Wang Xu changed his method, not storing the Constant Force, but directly using it to cultivate the ’Emperor’s Extreme Divine Suppression Record’... Immediately, the ’Emperor’s Extreme Divine Suppression Record’ started operating, and Wang Xu’s body underwent changes.

Within the Infinite Thunder Radiance, Constant Force existed!

Discovering this point, Wang Xu suppressed his inner excitement, took all the Infinite Thunder Radiance, and utilized the Constant Force contained within to cultivate the ’Emperor’s Extreme Divine Suppression Record.’

While enduring the punishment of Infinite Thunder Radiance, he simultaneously cultivated the Chaos Secret Scripture.

To outsiders, Wang Xu’s action seemed insane.

In such conditions, a slight mistake could lead to Wang Xu’s demise, and even Divine Medicine would not save him.

Yet Wang Xu went against the grain; not only did he survive, but he also gained benefits unimaginable to others!

Boom boom boom!

The Infinite Thunder Radiance fell madly, and the increasingly dense Constant Force almost made Wang Xu burst into laughter.

...

"The seventy-second strand of thunder radiance!"

The seventy-second strand of thunder radiance fell smoothly, and finally a charred mark appeared on Wang Xu’s body.

However, it was quickly wiped clean by Wang Xu’s powerful self-healing ability.

"Next, we will enter the stage of one hundred and eight strands of Infinite Thunder Radiance. Could Wang Xu really pass through one hundred and eight strands of thunder? That Constant Force, which took me so long to accumulate, would surely be a bargain for that kid, and I’d suffer a big loss then." (To be continued.
