Chapter 1596 - Beating Up a G.o.d
Li Qingshan looked up with a smile, like welcoming an old friend. Only by undergoing the seventh heavenly tribulation and Forging his Soul back into the Void could he truly face Qiongqi.
Faced with the killing intent and fury of the Lord of Thunder, he even felt a hint of nostalgia. Along the way, he had seen expressions like that far too many times. At the very least, it meant he could threaten them.
But in the next moment, the lightning crackled and wove together. The sky turned into a scorching-white, violent pool of lightning. Figures of lightning emerged one after another.
Each figure was a Lord of Thunder. There were thirty-six of them in total, dressed in the same attire with the same wrath.
Even Qiongqi was slightly taken aback, laughing aloud. “Nice one. All thirty-six Lords of Thunder of the thunder department have been mobilised. I wonder which G.o.d of the thunder department is leading them. Stop hiding yourself. Get your a.s.s out here!”
The heavenly palace had a thunder department, fire department, plague department, and so on. They all possessed different duties. Among them, the thunder department was the most important. They managed the fortunes of the heavens and wielded authority over others, controlling things and people, managing life and death. Not only did they decide whether the countless cultivators could become True Immortals, they were also tasked with the responsibility to wield the heavenly lightning to kill wicked demons.
There were a total of thirty-six Lords of Thunder, taken from the number of heavenly spirits. When regular Human Immortals faced the tribulation, only a single Lord of Thunder would ever appear, yet Li Qingshan had actually drawn all of them over with his tribulation.
And according to what Qiongqi said, there was a true G.o.d presiding over the situation and commanding them around too, absolutely determined to slay Li Qingshan here.
Sure enough, as soon as he said that, a G.o.d descended from the pool of lightning, wielding a swordbreaker in one hand and a talisman in the other. His expression was bleak and his armour was bright and solemn.
“I am the Thunder Lord General of the Nine Heavens. Under the edict of the Imperial Jade Empyrean Supreme Emperor of the Golden Abode of Aether and the command of the Nine Heavens Elements-answering Thunderclap Heavenly Lord of All-encompa.s.sing Alleviation, I’ve come specially to eliminate the daemon star.” He looked down on Li Qingshan. “I’d advise you to surrender immediately and perhaps you might still have a chance at survival. Otherwise, once the heavenly lightning rains down, you’ll definitely be reduced to dust, which is a pity considering your cultivation.”
TL: Yes those are real names in Chinese Daoism.
He completely ignored Qiongqi’s verbal provocation. The victors did not have to listen to the wails of defeated hounds. Only Li Qingshan made him feel a sliver of fear. Otherwise, he would not have attempted to descend here at all. Just directly slaying him with the heavenly lightning would be enough.
Beyond the Nine Heavens, the stars twinkled like cold eyes staring at this dim and distant scarlet star.
Winds swept in from all directions as thunder rumbled in the surroundings. The G.o.ds faced him with fury and the demons faced him with disdain. That was the fate that Li Qingshan had chosen.
However, the smile on his face grew wider. “If you’re the Jade Emperor or heavenly lord you’re talking about, I’ll scooch right over, but if you’re not, I’ll never lower my weapon!”
“Ignorant and stubborn. You bring forth your own destruction.” The Thunder Lord General of the Nine Heavens’ face turned cold. He said furiously, “Fall into formation! Slay the daemon!”
“Yes, sir!” the thirty-six Lords of Thunder answered together.
Boom!
The pool of lightning surged. The thirty-six Lords of Thunder established the Formation of the Thirty-six Heavenly Spirits. An invisible power immediately loomed over him.
Li Qingshan’s hairs stood on end, not because of anger or fear, but because he had been sucked into a colossal force field of static electricity.
However, to him right now, being unable to control his body, even just the very end of his hairs, was a very severe problem in itself.
He was basically the embodiment of the demonic heavens right now. He had turned the entire Demon domain into his small world, yet a certain power had now surpa.s.sed his control, influencing him and controlling him instead.
At that instant, billions of arcs thousands of times thinner than hair coursed through his body and soul constantly. He sustained tremendous damage that he could not resist or avoid at every moment. Even having a thousand arrows piercing his heart or having his body gnawed at by snakes came nowhere close to the pain.
If he were a regular Human Immortal, he would have been slain instantly, without leaving a single trace behind.
On Qingqi mountain, Qiongqi was stern. Even he did not have the courage to enter the vicinity of the heavenly tribulation, or it would become even more violent and terrifying. The Thunder Lord General of Nine Heavens definitely would not mind killing a Demon G.o.d in the process.
“Sure enough, the laws representing the heavenly tribulations are higher than the laws of the Demon domain,” Li Qingshan thought.
Originally, these Lords of Thunder were only Human Immortals, equivalent to the Divine Generals of the Six Ding and the Six Jia. Even if they a.s.sembled a formation, they were still nothing in their eyes. However, through the seventh heavenly tribulation of unprecedented size, they were all untouchable, possessing abnormally great strength.
Those who faced the tribulation were forced to accept the test pa.s.sively. If they could survive it, they would rise up as immortals and G.o.ds. If they could not, then they would be smashed to pieces with their souls disintegrated.
However, was that really the case? Who set up a test like this? And who was it that buried the truth that Nüwa created humanity? What gave them the right to judge him!?
Li Qingshan clenched his fist, punching out towards the lofty G.o.ds of the thunder department!

The ape demon scooped the moon, piercing through s.p.a.ce but ignoring the Lords of Thunder. The fist arrived right before the Thunder Lord General of the Nine Heavens!
The Thunder Lord General of the Nine Heavens furrowed his brows. He did not dodge. A halo of light rose up behind his head, s.h.i.+ning gently and blocking the punch.
The light was not just from his divine powers. It was further boosted by the power of belief from millions. As an orthodox G.o.d of heaven, he possessed countless temples and statues, receiving wors.h.i.+p every single day. The light was basically all-conquering and indestructible.
“Obliterate!”
The Tremors of the Ox Demon shattered s.p.a.ce, shaking it millions of times and obliterating the light, planting the punch on the Thunder Lord General of the Nine Heavens’ face.
“General!”
The expressions of the thirty-six Lords of Thunder all changed. Their faces were so ugly that it was as if they had been punched in the face instead. A sight like that was far too shocking to them, such that they basically forgot to work together against Li Qingshan.
The Thunder Lord General of the Nine Heavens’s head was thrown far backwards, immediately leaving him dazed. Who knew how many years it had been since someone last injured him, or perhaps, given his ident.i.ty, no one ever dared to attack him.
A stream of blood flowed from his nostril. He touched it, bright-red and eye-catching in his hand. His head continued to shake violently, struggling to find his words for a good moment. “How dare you… How did you…”
“So G.o.ds can also bleed!” Li Qingshan sneered. “Idiot, you’re not in the laws of the heavenly tribulation!”
At their realm, all of their clashes were basically a clash of laws, which was also the so-called “Contention of Dao”. Only when they were evenly matched in the laws did it come to regular fighting.
As the embodiment of the demonic heavens, Li Qingshan possessed paramount authority in the Demon domain, but he was limited by his cultivation, so he struggled to overwhelm a Demon G.o.d like Qiongqi. After all, Demon G.o.ds possessed very great authority too, the controllers of the laws of the Demon domain.
The Lords of Thunder were not particularly powerful in terms of cultivation, no different from Human Immortals most of the time, but their authority was temporarily elevated to a point even higher than Li Qingshan’s through the heavenly tribulation. They were almost undefeatable.
The Thunder Lord General of the Nine Heavens’ cultivation far surpa.s.sed theirs, but that was also the exact reason why he was not a part of the heavenly tribulation. He had only descended as an individual, and he was not a controller of the laws of the Demon domain like Demon G.o.d Qiongqi. Instead, he was suppressed by the laws of the Demon domain, which was why he was immediately made a fool of.
Once they were overwhelmed in terms of laws, even true G.o.ds were not so impressive.
As for his power? The power that a measly G.o.d himself possessed was but a drop in the ocean compared to the vast Demon domain.
And how could the so-called belief match up to the hatred and fury acc.u.mulated by the demonfolk over countless years?
The Thunder Lord General of the Nine Heavens returned to his senses and said furiously, “Kill him! Kill him immediately-”
Bang! Before he could even finish, he was punched in the face again.
“What kind of s.h.i.+tty G.o.d of thunder are you supposed to be? C’mon, c’mon, c’mon! I’ll show you how you do it!”
Li Qingshan punched the Thunder Lord General of the Nine Heavens again and again. Under the principle of only ever going for the face during a fight, he directed all of his punches towards his face.
In just a short while, the Thunder Lord General of the Nine Heavens’ face swelled up. He was dishevelled and in a horrible state, no longer possessing the same awe-inspiring spirit as before.
The G.o.ds and demons that observed this all felt his pain.
Qiongqi laughed madly, singing and dancing. “Nicely done! Nicely done!”
