Chapter 5 The Wrath of Heaven, the Favored Child of the Great Dao Takes Form
Kunlun Mountain.
Just as Tianlu left the range of the innate formation, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
"Boom—!"
Without warning, the sky above Kunlun Mountain, which had been clear and sunny, was instantly shrouded in endless purplish-black calamity clouds.
Above the sky, a divine lightning bolt, a deep purple-gold color, struck straight down towards Tianlu's head.
"Purple Heaven Divine Thunder?!"
Tianlu suddenly looked up, his expression freezing instantly.
As the first Pixiu auspicious beast in the world, although he was usually lazy, he naturally had inherited memories of all things in the primordial world in his mind.
This Purple Heaven Divine Lightning is the supreme punishment born from the origin of the primordial Heavenly Dao, specifically created to obliterate those who defy the Heavenly Dao or are anomalies that are intolerable to the Heavenly Dao.
If an ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortal were to suffer such a blow, even with the protection of an innate spiritual treasure, he would suffer a tragic end, with his physical body collapsing and his three flowers on his head being cut off.
"Holy crap! What did I do to deserve this?"
Tianlu was startled; his instinctive reaction as a Great Luo Golden Immortal made him instantly activate the laws of space.
His golden body left an afterimage in place, while his true form had already vanished into the layers of void folds, moving tens of thousands of miles to the right.
However, something strange happened.
The Purple Heaven Divine Lightning, carrying the force of certain death and locking onto Tianlu's aura, showed no intention of pursuing or changing its trajectory the moment he dodged.
With a deafening roar, it struck the ground precisely where Tianlu had originally stood.
In an instant, the earth of Kunlun Mountain was blasted into a terrifying abyss with no bottom in sight by this Purple Heaven Divine Lightning.
Tianlu poked his head out from the void, staring at the bottomless pit beside him, and was momentarily stunned.
Before he could even react, the tribulation clouds in the sky churned once more.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Several more bolts of purple lightning, as thick as mountains, carrying a world-destroying might, struck down one after another.
Tianlu dared not be careless. Relying on the mysteries of the laws of space, he continuously used teleportation in mid-air.
His figure flashed left and right in the void like golden lightning.
However, those few bolts of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning were still exactly the same.
They appeared to be a formidable force, but just as they were about to touch Tianlu's afterimage, they all inexplicably lost their aim and instead slashed straight at the ground beside Tianlu after he dodged.
For a moment, the Kunlun Mountains trembled and dust flew everywhere.
This bizarre scene left Tianlu completely stunned.
He stopped dodging, stood on the cloud, raised his paw and scratched his head, looking completely bewildered.
Just then, the Heavenly Dao above seemed to be enraged. The tribulation clouds boiled violently, and amidst the churning sea of thunder, hundreds of purple divine lightning bolts simultaneously condensed into form.
These divine thunderbolts came crashing down on Tianlu from all directions, overwhelming him.
Faced with this despair-inducing lightning punishment formation, Tianlu simply decided not to dodge this time.
He simply plopped down on the cloud, crossed his arms, and stared wide-eyed at the divine thunder.
"Come on! Go ahead and chop! Chop me on the head!"
Tianlu secretly hardened his heart.
The next second, hundreds of purple lightning bolts crashed down.
However, a miracle occurred again.
Just as the hundreds of purple lightning bolts were about to hit Tianlu's golden hair, they abruptly changed direction by almost ninety degrees.
The crackling sounds all struck the earth and the void surrounding Tianlu.
Tianlu remained motionless and unharmed.
The Kunlun Mountains surrounding him have been reduced to ruins.
This comical and absurd scene made Tianlu's mouth twitch uncontrollably.
"What's wrong with the way of Heaven?"
Tianlu muttered to himself, his eyes filled with the look of someone looking at an idiot.
"I don't think I've done anything heinous, have I? Why do they need to send down so much Purple Heaven Divine Thunder to set off fireworks for me?"
Tianlu frowned slightly, and the wisdom of a Great Luo Golden Immortal began to operate rapidly.
He knew very well that Heaven's way was impartial and absolute, and would never send down the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder without a reason.
Since it wasn't because of his sleeping or treasure hunting, it must be because he possessed something that was intolerable to the Heavenly Dao.
Thinking of this, Tianlu's heart stirred, and he couldn't help but recall the heaven-defying artifact he had just refined.
He opened his mouth, and with a thought, a twenty-fourth-grade Creation Lotus, radiating endless creative light, slowly floated out of his mouth and hovered in front of him.
As soon as the Azure Lotus appeared, the destructive aura ravaged by the thunder was instantly dispelled by an extremely rich vitality of creation.
Unexpectedly, the moment the Creation Lotus was exposed to the world, the tribulation clouds in the sky went berserk.
"BOOM!!!"
A world-destroying divine lightning bolt, ten times thicker than all the previous divine lightning bolts combined and displaying a pure purplish-black color, struck down with overwhelming force.
This time, however, the divine lightning's target was extremely clear. It completely ignored Tianlu and instead struck straight at the twenty-fourth-grade Creation Lotus that was floating in mid-air.
"How dare you! You dare steal my treasure!"
Upon seeing this, Tianlu's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
This was a supreme innate treasure that he had just painstakingly refined. How could it have been destroyed by the Heavenly Dao?
In the nick of time, Tianlu had no time to think and suddenly opened his blood-red maw.
The laws of devouring and space erupted from his mouth in an instant, transforming into a bottomless cosmic black hole.
He popped his head out and stuffed the enormous 24th grade Creation Lotus back into his mouth, swallowing it directly into his mysterious and unpredictable abdominal space.
Just as the green lotus disappeared, the world-destroying Purple Heaven Divine Lightning struck Tianlu's head.
Just as the divine lightning was about to strike Tianlu squarely on the forehead, the strange power of the rules descended once more.
The incomparably violent Purple Heaven Divine Lightning, as if it had encountered some primordial beast, abruptly stopped its descent just half an inch from Tianlu's scalp.
Immediately afterwards, the divine thunder suddenly reversed direction in a way that completely defied common sense and the logic of physics.
It drew an extremely abrupt arc in mid-air, ending with an extremely frustrating roar.
With a loud bang, it crashed into a towering sacred mountain next to Tianlu.
This scene completely made Tianlu understand what was going on.
He sat on a cloud, patting his round belly, a smug smile on his lips.
"I see, I understand now."
Tianlu understood everything clearly.
The Heavenly Dao didn't actually intend to strike him down; rather, it couldn't tolerate this Twenty-Fourth Grade Creation Lotus and wanted to unleash divine lightning to completely obliterate it.
As for the reason, Tianlu, as an auspicious beast with inherited memories, understood the cause and effect with a little deduction.
What is the origin of the Creation Lotus?
That was a divine object, a supernatural treasure, born from one of the thirty-six-petaled Chaos Green Lotus seeds after it disintegrated, having absorbed the origin of creation from the beginning of time and been nurtured over countless years.
