Cultivation Pet Shop

But this time, the fifth bolt of lightning didn't follow the precedent of the previous four.

This bolt of lightning that took the form of a Qilin stayed in the air, watching over Lin Fan.

It had long formed and had stopped gathering its power, but it just floated there without making a move.

Lin Fan used his powers as fast as he could to force the hole in his hand to heal, but he also focused all his attention on the Qilin that was just floating there in the air.

After a while, the Qilin finally made its move.

With a single roar, all the clouds that were above it began entering the lightning body of the Qilin, creating a wrapping around it. It continued to pad the body of the Qilin until the Qilin was completely covered.

However, it didn't stop there. Once all the clouds had gathered around the body of the Qilin, it continued to change form. At first it took the shape of a cloud QIlin, but then it began warping.

The clouds became thinner and longer, taking a specific shape with the Qilin at its core.

Once the clouds had finished changing their shape, they had taken the shape of a giant sword in the sky that hung above Lin Fan. Just hanging there in the sky, it was almost like it was the sword of the heavens, here to bring down heavenly punishment on Lin Fan.

When the sword had fully formed, the Qilin didn't waste anymore time as it raised its head and brought it down with a roar.

The sword fell right down above Lin Fan with the might of the heavens, just like the Sword of Damocles, as if it could cleave through anything in its way.

It had far surpassed the level of a normal tribulation, it had even surpassed the Embryo Soul Realm, reaching the Child Soul Realm that was in the middle of the Soul Realm.

Each level in the Soul Realm was a large step and there was no way for those that weren't in the same level to match each other. Not to mention skipping two levels from the Fragmented Soul Realm to go directly to the Child Soul Realm.

This time, Lin Fan might really be in trouble…

When Angela saw this, she almost couldn't stand still anymore.

She had been able to maintain her calm before because she knew that with the master of the shop, Lin Fan should have some way of passing through the legendary Tribulation of Death, but seeing this now, how could she keep calm. She had never seen this kind of tribulation before, but she could feel the heaven's might that was coming from it.

She was ready to disregard her own life to take the tribulation with Lin Fan.

But before she could go, Momonga suddenly grabbed her by the shoulder and asked, "What do you think you're doing?"

Angela just glared at him, but she didn't say anything.

She was about to break free and still head over when he said, "Do you think he would want that?"

Angela suddenly trembled when she heard this.

She knew that it meant to take someone's tribulation with them.

She would make it twice as strong for Lin Fan, but the most important thing was that the tribulation adjusted itself based on the cultivation of the one who interfered. That meant that if she were to interfere, the tribulation that she would have to take along with Lin Fan would be greater than her actual cultivation level.

There was no way that she would be able to break through this, she could already tell from the aura of the tribulation that this was far beyond a normal tribulation. This tribulation contained the fury of the heavens themselves, if she were to take this, she definitely wouldn't be able to survive.

However, if she were to enter this tribulation, with her cultivation realm, she would be able to easily block Lin Fan's tribulation for him.

What she basically wanted to do was sacrifice her own life for his…

​ But Momonga was right, would Lin Fan want that?

Angela still shook her head in the end and said, "Is there meaning to living if I let him die?"

Momonga gave a sigh before saying, "Why can't you just trust him?"

Angela bit her lip as she looked back at Lin Fan.

While he had surpassed the four bolts of lightning from before, he looked very battered at this moment. It was very clear that he was completely exhausted and his chance of passing this tribulation was very low.

Angela wanted to believe, but seeing this, she really couldn't.

She once again took another step back, but this time there was a skeleton that appeared in front of her.

Angela turned back to look at Momonga, but this time the look in her eyes was completely different. This time, they were filled with hostility, "What do you mean by this?"

Momonga shook his head before saying with a sigh, "I can't just watch you throw away your life like this."

Wind gathered around Angela and she returned to looking like how Lin Fan had first met her, an ice cold angel. She glared right at Momonga and said, "Do you really want to do this?"

Momonga had a bitter smile on his lips as he said, "Of course I don't want to do this, but…"

However, before he could even finish his words, the Qilin had finished gathering its strength. It had formed a giant sword in the sky and the Qilin was embedded into the hilt, just like a gem.

With a roar from the Qilin, the sword suddenly began to fall and in an instant, it was already right in front of Lin Fan's eyes.

Lin Fan didn't dare be negligent as he immediately pulled out his Iron Eater Bone Artifact.

He hadn't done this before because he didn't want to risk breaking the Iron Eater Bone Artifact. He also wanted to use his body to resist the lightning because it also greatly helped his cultivation to resist it with his body.

Just from the eight bolts of lightning, he had gone from the low Fragmented Soul Realm to the High Fragmented Soul Realm.

However, he knew that this final bolt was different. If he didn't pull it out now, he might not have a life to swing that sword any longer.

Between losing an artifact and losing his life, the former was clearly better than the latter.

Besides, the Iron Eater Bone Artifact was binded to him, so if he died, it meant that the Iron Eater Bone Artifact would lose its spirituality. They were deeply linked, so instead of letting Lin Fan die alone, Lin Fan was certain that the Iron Eater Bone Artifact would want to die with him.

If only Lin Fan knew what the Iron Eater Bone Artifact was really thinking…

It was still an artifact that had newly gained intelligence, so it was on the level of a child, but there was only one thing in its mind right now.

It was saying, "SCARY!".

It didn't want to die with Lin Fan!

If it survived, it at least had a chance to gain spirituality again, but if it died, it was all over!

Still, it couldn't do a thing as it took the blow of the sword of heaven with Lin Fan.

Lin Fan swung the Iron Eater Bone Artifact with all his might, using every single law that he had in him to boost his power as much as possible. The might of the combination of the six laws were powerful, so powerful that it created an intense strain on his body, but that didn't match the strain that came from taking the mighty blow of the sword of heaven.

Lin Fan was continuously pushed back by the might of the heavens.

First he was pushed a step back, then two steps, then three, then four, and so on and so on.

The one thing was that the sword of heaven had fallen on him from above, so instead of pushing him backwards, it was pushing him further and further into the ground.

As the sword continued to fall, there was a hole that was created under him that continued to grow in size.

Lin Fan could feel the black hole and the suns in his dantian spinning and churning out energy at full force, but it still wasn't able to keep up with the mighty sword of the heavens. At this rate, it really seemed like the sword would crush him.

Angela on the side saw this and she immediately used all her power without care of where she was. She completely ignored the fact that she was in a lower realm and pulled out the full might of her Immortal Realm cultivation.

Momonga deeply knitted his brows when he saw this and he reached into space to pull out a staff completely made of gold with seven serpents at the top forming a crown with seven different gems in their mouths. He also gathered his full strength to stop Angela.

They were just lucky that the ruins that they were in were special, which meant that the energy they released couldn't escape from around them, so no one could tell that they were here.

Angela narrowed her eyes when she saw this and shouted, "Move!"

But before either side could do anything else, there was another sensation coming from Lin Fan.

This feeling, it was one that they had felt before when they first met Lin Fan…

It was the feeling of a God Realm law!
