Chapter 1347: Shattering the Heavens!

The tribulation clouds started disappearing quicker and quicker.

This time, even the relatively weaker students could detect that something was off.

“The tribulation clouds are disappearing… Why has Student An Lin still not reappeared?”

“How can this be…”

“This can’t be… Senior An Lin is definitely going to be okay…”

Some of the students teared up as they stared intently at the peak of Pan Long Mountain.

That mountaintop was empty, yet everyone hoped that a white-robed figure would reappear there.

To them, An Lin wasn’t merely an idol to wors.h.i.+p and admire. Rather, he was more like a flicker of light that was indispensable to them. He was a flicker of light that couldn’t go missing from their hearts.

As long as An Lin was present, they would be able to tear through all difficulties and darkness; as long as An Lin was present, they would never feel a sense of despair.

But what if… this flicker of light suddenly disappeared?

The tribulation clouds slowly dispersed, and their hearts were all plunged into an icy abyss. A spine-chilling cold tore at their bodies.

Just as everyone sunk into a state of grief and sorrow.

The sky suddenly started tremoring violently.

An indescribable power instantly enveloped heaven and earth.

“This…”

“What on Earth is going on?”

They all s.h.i.+fted their gazes toward the sky.

It was as though a devastating power was descending from the heavens.

As if they had encountered some peculiar power, the tribulation clouds in the sky started swarming about violently.

Crack…

Something suddenly shattered.

Before anyone could come to their senses.

A gigantic, sword-like bolt of golden lightning tore through the heavens and raced through two thousand kilometers!

The tribulation clouds were torn to shreds by this bolt of divine lightning. This bolt of golden lightning was more radiant than even the sun, and it incinerated everything in its path as it arced toward an infinitely faraway place.

Not only did this flash of devastating lightning blind the tens of thousands of teachers, students, and Heavenly Court immortals, but it even shocked the five emperors of the Heavenly Court!

“This is a bolt of Golden Void Lightning, which is capable of shredding the heavens!”

“Such a terrifying bolt of Golden Void Lightning. It feels like a monarch that is above the heavens! It’s supreme in prestige and power, and its might is boundless and infinite…”

Right at the moment, however, a figure suddenly appeared amid the sea of lightning.

Regardless of whether it was the terrifying arcs of Golden Void Lightning or the hundreds of millions of arcs of lightning within the tribulation clouds, they all quivered and bowed down to that figure. They didn’t dare to keep roaring.

It was clearly an earth-shattering scene, yet it had suddenly become as quiet as a painting.

The appearance of that figure subdued the lightning and silenced the heavens!

“I-Is that a G.o.d?”

Some people murmured in astonishment upon seeing the divine scene.

“No, that figure looks kind of familiar…” Chang’e spoke softly as she stared at that majestic figure.

“An Lin!” a pleasant yet exhilarated shout suddenly sounded from some mountaintop.

There were tears in Xu Xiaolan’s eyes as she flew toward the male who stood in the sky. An extremely joyous smile blossomed on her face.

The male in the sky waved a hand, and the lightning that enveloped his body immediately vanished, revealing the handsome and warm smile on his face.

“I’m back.” He smiled.

After saying this, he and the female hugged each other tightly.

“An Lin, why is your heavenly tribulation also so frightening? You scared me to death…” Xu Xiaolan sobbed as she hugged An Lin tighter and buried her head into his chest.

During the time that An Lin had disappeared, she wore a facade of confidence and trust. However, she was actually feeling extremely scared, and it could be said that she was the most anxious about An Lin’s safety.

Now that An Lin had returned, Xu Xiaolan finally couldn’t hold her tears in any longer. She let out all her pent-up emotions.

“It’s okay, everything’s going to be fine. Look, aren’t I safe and sound now?” An Lin patted the female’s back as he comforted her in a soft and gentle voice.

Meanwhile, below the thunderclouds.

Everyone was stunned. Immediately afterward, shouts of joy and jubilation reverberated throughout the heavens.

“It’s An Lin! It really is An Lin!”

“Haha, I told you that G.o.d An was invincible! How can he lose to a mere lightning tribulation?”

“He subdued the lightning right after he reappeared. That spectacle was truly earth-shattering and majestic!”

“I wonder how powerful Fellow Cultivator An has become. My heart palpitated in fear merely from seeing the snakes of lightning in the sky. Yet he was actually able to have that sea of lightning obey his commands! That kind of ability is truly terrifying…”

“As expected of Master. He shattered the heavens… H-He genuinely shattered the heavens just then!”

The soft white fur on Xue Zhantian’s body all stood on end as he flapped his small wings. He looked like a white hedgehog at this moment, and he had even forgotten to use idioms in his speech.

The five silently spectating emperors also stood up at this instant. They looked toward An Lin with expressions of shock and astonishment.

“This feeling…”

“There’s no doubt about it. That power is slightly similar to the Heavenly Wind G.o.d’s power!”

“The same kind of power…”

The fissure that had been torn into the sky slowly closed up.

The Lightning Divine Halo above An Lin’s head also started to slowly disappear. The Golden Void Lightning robe enveloping his body gradually transformed back into a white robe.

An Lin was still the same old An Lin. However, his aura had already become ethereal and vague. No one knew what would happen if he unleashed his full power.

He and Xu Xiaolan slowly descended onto the peak of Pan Long Mountain.

“Scatter.” An Lin casually waved a hand.

Boom!

Under his casual wave, the boundless stretch of tribulation clouds evaporated and vanished.

Sunlight once again beamed down onto the earth, providing all matter and lives with light and warmth.

Before the cultivators could even head over to congratulate him, An Lin shocked them again with his G.o.d-like action.

“An Lin, you… Where on earth did you go before? I was so anxious for you…” There was a look of curiosity on Xu Xiaolan’s face as she gazed at An Lin with her bright eyes.

“It’s a long story.” An Lin sighed with emotion. “I was brought to a place called the heavens outside the heavens by the Golden Void Lightning. Afterward, I seized its abilities and used it to forcefully break open some barrier. Then, I was able to return here safely. I’ll fill you in on the details when we return.

“Oh, that’s right. I think I’m still missing something. After all, one needs to face eighty-one bolts of lightning when ranking up to the Return to Void Stage. I still haven’t faced the last bolt of lightning in this world.”

An Lin suddenly clapped his hands together.

“Huh?” Xu Xiaolan stared at An Lin in confusion.

An Lin thought for a moment, and a divine halo appeared above his head. Then, he gestured toward the clear sky.

“Come back,” he said calmly.

A boundless stretch of tribulation clouds instantly rumbled through the skies.

An insanely thick bolt of Golden Void Lightning ripped through the void and crashed into An Lin’s body!

An Lin raised his arms and excitedly absorbed the energy of the Golden Void Lightning. A look of pleasure stretched across his face. Under this bolt of lightning, that last bit of imperfection was finally remedied.

“Alright, you can leave now.”

An Lin casually waved a hand again.

Boom!

The boundless stretch of tribulation clouds evaporated and vanished.

The tens of thousands of teachers and students all wore blank expressions.

The immortals of the Heavenly Court also looked as if they had seen a ghost.

Even the five emperors of the Heavenly Court exchanged confused glances. It was as though they had witnessed something unfathomable.

“Did An Lin just summon the lightning tribulation again?”

“With a casual wave of the hand, he summoned the heavenly tribulation lightning. With a casual clap, he shooed away the heavenly tribulation lightning. I-Is he still human?”

“Even the heavenly tribulation lightning obeys An Lin’s wishes now. It has become an obedient child who comes and goes at An Lin’s commands… What do you think? Is An Lin still a human? He’s definitely not a human… He’s a G.o.d!”

The immortals all gasped in admiration. They couldn’t come up with any words to describe this stunning scene. Thus, they could only use the t.i.tle of G.o.d to describe him.

Tai Chu Continent, The United University of Cultivation.

Atop the Pan Long Mountain, An Lin broke through to the Return to Void Stage, swallowed a power of the Heavenly Lightning G.o.d, and shattered the heavens. Under the witness of countless immortals, he successfully attained the t.i.tle of a G.o.d!
