Chapter 529: Chapter 514: Protection from the Enemy

Ten pet beasts broke through simultaneously, coupled with the tribulation clouds from Li Cunxu’s previous tribulation, which hadn’t dissipated much, causing the tribulation clouds to instantly form and the heavenly tribulation to rapidly condense.

The Elf Queen and the Queen of Desolation were dumbfounded.

How did it break through?

Now, the Elf Queen and the Queen of Desolation could only pray that the attack wouldn’t kill Xiaoruan and the others.

If the Tribulation Crosser were killed by outsiders, the enraged heavenly tribulation would strike them dead.

The Little Demon Whale rapidly spun in a circle, a silver, bubble-like space shield emerging within.

The space shield is the strongest among the Defense Energy Shields.

It can transfer a portion of the damage into the void.

Meanwhile, aside from the Little Demon Whale, Xiaoruan lent the Myriad Phenomena Law to the other nine pet beasts, simulating it into the Space Law, then nine Venerable King level nine Space Laws were added to the space shield.

Along with the Little Demon Whale’s Space Law boost, the space shield was enhanced by ten Space Laws, greatly increasing its defensive strength.

But still, the space shield couldn’t withstand the angry blow from the Elf Queen and the Queen of Desolation.

The Elf Queen shot the Divine Wood Piercing Arrow like a green meteor and the Queen of Desolation shot the Desolate Death Arrow like a yellow meteor, only blocked momentarily by the space shield, and then, unable to withstand the damage, the shield shattered.

As one of the strongest Defense Energy Shields, the space shield’s performance extends beyond that; when shattered, it triggers a void torrent, washing over the elves’ attacks like tides.

Weaker attacks from other Monarch Elves were directly swept away by the void torrent.

Stronger attacks, though not entirely swept away, had part of their power carried away by the void torrent.

The most obvious examples were the dimming of the light from the Divine Wood Piercing Arrow and the Desolate Death Arrow.

Xiaoruan and the nine other pets raised their energy shields, but even nine energy shields proved too thin against the Divine Wood Piercing Arrow and the Desolate Death Arrow. The two arrows broke through shield after shield like no man’s land.

Still, these energy shields had some effect, further reducing the power of the two arrows.

The final line of defense was Mechanical Pupil’s defensive force field.

After significant weakening, the defensive force field was able to block these two arrows.

Just then, something unexpected happened: the two arrows burst out with even more terrifying power.

Li Cunxu exclaimed, “This isn’t a Monarch level attack, this is an Emperor level attack.”

What is going on?

Before Li Cunxu could figure it out, the Elf Queen and the Queen of Desolation’s realms dropped, climbing back to the Emperor Realm again.

The Elf Queen and the Queen of Desolation extended their hands, aiming at Mechanical Pupil.

Divine Wood Defense Shield.

Desolate Defense Shield.

The pets were protected by the two shields, narrowly escaping death from the sudden Emperor level two arrows.

As for why the Elf Queen and the Queen of Desolation saved the pets? Of course, they feared being struck dead by the enraged heavenly tribulation.

Actually, even without the shields, they wouldn’t die; there was still the life-saving jade from the old Chairman as backup.

Li Cunxu looked towards the direction of the Life Tree; the ancient and huge Life Tree still stood intact. At this moment, Li Cunxu understood why the Elf Queen and the Queen of Desolation returned to the Emperor Realm.

The Elf Queen and the Queen of Desolation used some method to create the illusion of the Life Tree’s lifespan ending and the realm falling, deceiving Li Cunxu.

Fortunately, even deceiving Li Cunxu was pointless.

Li Cunxu’s scheme using the heavenly tribulation was more clever.

On the contrary, since the Elf Queen and the Queen of Desolation were Emperor level, interfering with the heavenly tribulation, the punishment from the tribulation would be stronger.

Boundless black clouds covered this world’s sky, tribulation thunder darting through the clouds like true dragons.

The Elf Queen waved her sleeve, a gust of strong wind sweeping in, intending to blow the pets away.

In response to the Emperor-level tribulation thunder aimed at the Elf Queen, such powerful thunder with a wide impact range worried her that it might affect the pets, causing their death.

After all, before the Emperor level’s tribulation thunder punishment, the pets were as fragile as paper.

Moreover, the heavenly tribulation is unreasonable, its thunder’s aftermath killing the pets would be blamed on the Elf Queen and the Queen of Desolation.

As the gust was about to reach the pets, a white tribulation thunder suddenly descended from the sky. So fast, far exceeding Emperor level reaction speed, striking the pets before anyone could react.

Yet, the white thunder didn’t harm the pets; instead, after being struck, their bodies shone with white light that protected them from any effect of the winds.

Li Cunxu instantly understood what was happening.

In ancient times, many took the chance when others were crossing tribulations to kill the tribulation crossers. The more perfect the heavenly tribulation, the more it targeted those who attacked the Tribulation Crosser along with the tribulation.

This stopped some people but not all; some continued attacking tribulation crossers, especially those with deep, irreconcilable hatred, risking heavenly tribulation to kill them.

Your personal vendettas are beyond the heavenly tribulation’s scope, but you can’t exploit it. Hence, it evolved the Sheltering Divine Thunder.

This type of thunder striking a Tribulation Crosser protects them from external harm beyond the tribulation.

When exploiting the tribulation to trap enemies, the tribulation evolved an avoidance mechanism, forming the tribulation clouds leisurely.

Thus, enemies attacking the Tribulation Crosser would learn that the tribulation was forming, signaling them to stop, or else they’d be added to the tribulation’s targets.

However, unfortunately, Li Cunxu discovered a loophole in the heavenly tribulation.

He crossed the tribulation first, drawing the tribulation clouds, then immediately had the pets break through while the clouds hadn’t dissipated, rapidly accelerating their formation.

The key wasn’t just one pet breaking through, but nine or ten.

Almost instantaneously forming tribulation clouds.

According to the evolution mechanism of the heavenly tribulation, likely, this loophole will be patched soon.

Of course, it might never be fixed.

After all, few can exploit this loophole, so far, only Li Cunxu.

As if a mouse stealing rice, unnoticed when stealing little, discovered only when stealing much.

The Elf Queen found it impossible to drive away the pets, and didn’t want her tribulation thunder to affect them, fearing the heavenly tribulation would strike her dead. She had to call the elves to move away to undergo the thunder punishment elsewhere.

As the elves departed, Li Cunxu gifted those Monarch Elves attacking the pets and the two queens with two grand gifts.

Cursed Life-burning Fire and Extreme Burning.

Sensing the rapid consumption of lifespan by the strange fire, the Queen of Desolation was furious, drawing her bow and firing without reservation.

Desolate Life-locking Arrow.

This arrow, unlike the Desolate Death Arrow, is a single target locking skill, attacking just one target.

The Queen of Desolation intended to strike Li Cunxu surrounded and protected by a crowd of pet beasts.

The Queen of Desolation smirked coldly, “Think hiding behind beast pets leaves me helpless?”
