Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times
Chapter 1553 - 1185: Nine Strikes of Heavenly Punishment Unseen Since Time Immemorial!
But, just as Shi Wujue’s outstretched hands were striving to close in that instant, a thunderous roar erupted once more in the sky, illuminating a bright and fiery radiance...
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
Shi Wujue, who was just about to act, was suddenly shocked upon hearing this roar. In the next instant, his gaze turned towards Gu Changsheng...
Another bolt of thunderous light, impossibly swift, struck Gu Changsheng!
This...
Shi Wujue’s hands froze!
This...
"The fourth heavenly punishment?" His pale lips trembled, Shi Wujue spoke in disbelief, his elongated eyes completely stunned by the anomaly.
The Heavenly Dao cycles, with its destined patterns!
In the Conquest Realm, one undergoes three Soul Refining Heavenly Punishments; birth into one, one into two, two into three, three into all, symbolizing the cycle of life and death. But...
Now, as Gu Changsheng undergoes this Soul Refining Heavenly Punishment, she welcomes a fourth strike of punishment thunder!
When Shi Wujue was already determined to fight desperately, forcibly ending this Nirvana, the fourth Heavenly Punishment thunder appeared unexpectedly!
"How is this possible? Four heavenly punishments? This is impossible!"
"Heavens!"
"Godfather!"
"..."
This sight caused the people of the Hidden World Clan immediate shock.
Four heavenly punishments!
This completely challenges the limits of their understanding!
Those in the world who could reach the Conquest Realm, experiencing this heaven-defying punishment, although few, when counted throughout history, there are some, but it’s unheard of for anyone’s heavenly punishment to exceed this cycle of three!
Yet...
Yet Gu Changsheng...
She has welcomed the fourth heaven-defying punishment!
This...
This is simply an unprecedented, unheard-of miracle!
Dumbfounded, they exchanged glances; the people of the Hidden World Clan could not imagine, if...
If Gu Changsheng could miraculously pass under the four thunders, what would the consequences be...
Even just thinking about that scene is terrifying! Incredibly terrifying!
However, they were still too naive!
Just as they exchanged glances, trembling with shock, another thunderstorm roared past...
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
The fifth strike of heavenly punishment thunder, without hesitation, struck Gu Changsheng, with such accuracy that it was perfect, without fail!
In the center of the arena, Gu Changsheng’s figure trembled!
Now she no longer knew today’s date!
Let alone resisting, she clearly knew her Divine Soul was being extracted, yet she was powerless! Only able to watch, to witness her thoughts dissipating bit by bit as her soul peeled away...
But do you think this is the end?
No!
You have vastly underestimated the extent of Heavenly Father’s disdain for Gu Changsheng!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
Another wave of thunderous roar swept past...
This sound that made eardrums cringe left everyone present stunned...
"The sixth strike!"
Elder Yuh of the Hidden World Clan, his old face lifeless, counted in a dazed manner.
The sixth strike!
The sixth strike!
Godfather!
What kind of heaven-defying power does Gu Changsheng possess?
Others who reach the Conquest Realm face three strikes of heavenly punishment tribulation, yet she has doubled it in the blink of an eye?
Does this mean Heavenly Father’s lightning is mood-dependent? And varies from person to person?
This point, why has no one throughout history ever known?
"Changsheng..." Meanwhile, Zhou Mu’s expression also turned somewhat dull.
No matter who they were, witnessing six strikes of heavenly punishment thunder upon one person left them feeling their souls had gone, incredulous.
Shi Wujue there, had already stopped, his entire being stiff, his face pale and horrified as he watched Gu Changsheng’s direction...
In the center of the arena, where Gu Changsheng stood, had already been engulfed by the fiery light of thunder...
The bright light akin to daylight under the pitch-black curtain was so glaring, it was hard to ignore!
Vague shadows hovered weakly around Gu Changsheng...
Everyone stood, dumbfounded, watching the woman clad in blood-red embroidered with dragons and phoenixes, her long ink-like hair swirling and dancing behind her, surrounded by thunderous light and fire...
She still slightly held her head high, looking determined to press forward relentlessly...
However...
Nearly everyone could see that under the sweeping thunderous light, the blood-red figure trembled...
Pain!
The pain of having her soul forcibly torn from her body!
Making Gu Changsheng feel like a tiny, insignificant floating weed in the boundless ocean...
The soul, forcibly extracted by boundless pressure, unable to coagulate...
Gu Changsheng’s thoughts also fragmented with the extraction of her soul...
What is an overwhelming disaster? This is it!
This feeling of having a soul detached from the body leaves one completely clueless!
Unreasonable, leaving not a single breath of life!
Is this Heaven’s wrath?
Under Heaven’s wrath, humans are so insignificant, insignificant to the point of being almost negligible...
"I... I refuse to accept this!"
Trembling under the weight of his body, Gu Changsheng seemed like an empty shell, his lips slightly parted, their pale color tinged with the grey of death. It is unclear what kind of determination propelled him to utter such words...
I refuse to accept this!
I will not die like this!
I will not vanish into dust while my desires remain unfulfilled!
I want to live!
I want to live!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
Just as Gu Changsheng uttered his refusal, from the black sky, amidst the boundless dark clouds, another snakelike lightning bolt swiftly spiraled down, charging directly at Gu Changsheng...
How long has it been?
Hearing so many crashes of thunder, the crowds above and below the stage had become somewhat numb...
Today was destined to be a heart-stopping day!
No matter whether the Southern Emperor can successfully pass this tribulation, the way thunder strikes down as if at no cost is enough to shock the world!
"The seventh strike!"
Someone slowly uttered these words...
The seventh strike!
It’s already the seventh Heavenly Punishment Thunder!
Among those who mastered the art of time, rarely any stood unbowed after three strikes of Thunder Fire during this trial by the Soul Refinement Heavenly Punishment, let alone... seven! It’s simply unimaginable!
"Ah!"
A furious roar that shakes the heavens issued from Gu Changsheng’s mouth.
His long black hair, wild and flying, with a defiant stance craving to challenge the heavens...
"Boom!"
In the next instant, a figure fell from Gu Changsheng’s body, making a loud noise...
The crowd watched, all momentarily stunned...
Upon closely observing, they discovered...
A big featherless chicken?
"Is this... the Vermilion Bird Divine Gu?"
Someone with keen insight spoke uncertainly at the sight of the Vermilion Bird Gu dropping out...
The crowd heard and fell silent...
It’s rumored in the world that Southern Border Gu Arts are mysterious and unpredictable. Gu insects nestle deep within the soul of the Gu Cultivation Master, merging seamlessly with their soul...
Yet now, the Vermilion Bird Gu nurtured deep in Gu Changsheng’s soul, had been forcibly separated...
The seventh Heavenly Punishment Thunder’s power was evident at a glance...
The Vermilion Bird Gu Fire Chicken, at the instant it fell from Gu Changsheng, was swept away by a blaze of thunder, burning brightly as it raised a high crow...
The sound struck fear into those who heard it...
"Changsheng..." Zhou Mu stared at the Fire Chicken separated from Gu Changsheng’s body, his shock beyond words, his face pale as death...
"Seven strikes of Heavenly Punishment Thunder! Seven... Gu Changsheng you..." Shi Wujue slightly shook his head, unable to accept, "Are you favored by Heaven or cursed with its jealousy?"
Seven Heavenly Punishment Thunder strikes, unheard of across the ages!
This existence defies Heaven...
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
However, everything was far from over...
Just as everyone shared the horror of the Phoenix Gu being stripped from Gu Changsheng’s body, another thunder strike swept across the heavens...
"Ah!"
In the next instant, Gu Changsheng’s body convulsed...
"Boom!"
Another bright figure violently leapt from Gu Changsheng’s body...
The coiled long serpent spun several times around Gu Changsheng, seemingly tossed out, then steadied its posture, unwillingly raising its head, its crimson tongue flickering...
"The eighth strike! The Green Dragon Gu... has been stripped away too..."
In this world, some are learned, they cried out in surprise immediately...
And Zhou Mu, gazing at the falling Green Dragon Gu Spirit Python, found his entire being icy cold...
The last Gu!
The Four Great Imperial Gu of Southern Border known to all, yet Zhou Mu knew only these two were truly bonded with his Changsheng!
White Tiger and Black Tortoise were given by Changsheng to Xiao Gu Ze for protection...
Without White Tiger Maomao and Black Tortoise Little Meat, who else can preserve her last trace of soul with Changsheng?
Under Soul Refining Heavenly Punishment, as the soul is completely stripped, this marks...
This marks the moment when one facing punishment falls into disaster!
This realization left Zhou Mu’s Divine Soul terrified, as if plunged into an ice cellar!
His Changsheng...
His Changsheng...
With eight strikes of Heavenly Punishment Thunder, her Changsheng no longer has any spirit to guard her soul...
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
Again came the sound of sky-thundering booms, bearing the pressure to obliterate the heavens and the earth, lightning ferocious, tearing through heaven’s veil, sweeping toward Gu Changsheng...
Yet Zhou Mu, at this moment, his long legs resolutely stepping toward where Gu Changsheng lay...
"With them here, they will surely avenge you and me! Changsheng my love, on the Yellow Springs Road, I shall accompany you..." Within the realm of lightning and thunder, the purple figure moved forward without hesitation...
