The Ruler Of All 40 Initial Strikes

*Crack* *Crack*

The sounds of Thunder cracking led Zhu Long as well as Ku w.a.n.g to retreat from the area to a safer place, away from the tribulation.

The storm clouds' size grew at a quick pace. It slowly started to cover the entire area, filling the forest with darkness. It was the first time for Zhu Long to see such a scene. He seemed entangled by it, staring directly towards the clouds in absolute awe.

Ku w.a.n.g had noticed Zhu Long's expression and said,"Seeing a lightning tribulation is always amazing no matter how much you see it. I've seen it a couple of times but am still in awe when I see it happen." Zhu Long seemed surprised when he heard Ku w.a.n.g's words. He looked towards Ku w.a.n.g in confusion.

As Zhu Long was about to speak, Ku w.a.n.g interrupted," I know what Brother Lin is wanting to say, This truly isn't the first time that I've seen a lightning tribulation. I've seen it a couple of times before but never by a demonic beast, Only by cultivators." 

Zhu Long seemed to remember something when he heard Ku w.a.n.g's explanation,'If I remember, I've heard from father that when oldie had broken through the saint realm, he had gone through a Lightning tribulation. If that's the case….. This Ku w.a.n.g, I wonder who he truly is.' Zhu Long's curiosity about Ku w.a.n.g had increased even more after hearing Ku w.a.n.g's words. It seemed like Ku w.a.n.g had come from a huge clan.

'Never mind that now, I will find out sooner or later. For now, I need to wait for the tribulation to commence.' Zhu Long shook his head and looked towards the storm clouds again, in antic.i.p.ation for the tribulation to begin. Ku w.a.n.g also looked towards the clouds,"It's going to begin soon…" He said to Zhu Long.

*Roar*

The Demonic Bull bellowed towards the clouds, shaking it's head restlessly, awaiting for the tribulation. It seemed to know for what would happen next and was ready for it.

Zhu Long smiled as he looked at the Demonic bull,'It seems excited as well as fearful for what will happen next. That would be the common reaction for everyone as after going through a tribulation, their powers will increase exponentially….That is if it survives the tribulation itself. Even if it survives the tribulation, it's injuries would be very severe and might get attacked by other equally powerful demonic beasts or even cultivators.'

*CRACK* *CRACK*

The sounds of thunder cracking started to get louder. As the bull heard those cracks, it's own aura started to rise. Zhu Long had only felt the bull's aura change drastically but didn't know why. Ku w.a.n.g on the other hand could see changes in qi. He was surprised to see that the bull had actually created a qi field to protect itself from the soon to come barrage of lightning."This… I didn't think that demonic beasts could do that! I wonder how powerful this demonic beast is… It...It can probably contended with peak void realm cultivators at its current state.`` Ku w.a.n.g then looked towards Zhu Long and said in a very deep and serious tone,"Brother Lin, are you sure you can defeat this bull? I know that you are very powerful and the fact that after going through the tribulation, It will be in a very weakened state. But the fact is that this bull is extremely powerful! It would still be powerful enough to decimate a peak stage Nascent cultivator even in its injured state! I think Brother Lin should reconsider this…" 

Zhu Long smiled warmly towards Ku w.a.n.g. He didn't mind that Ku w.a.n.g was discouraging him to not fight the bull, as everything that Ku w.a.n.g said was only in good intentions.

"Brother Ku, I have to apologize for rejecting your good will, This is a battle that I must partake in! I'm sure that after we win, our fruits of labor will be exponential!" Zhu Long felt a bit bad for rejecting Ku w.a.n.g's good will but this was a battle that Old Yang had told him to do. ZHu Long had complete trust in Old Yang as everything he had ever done only further increased his strength, there were no bad aspects to them.

The clouds started to rumble. It seemed like the tribulation would happen any second now. Zhu Long as well as Ku w.a.n.g stood in silence, waiting patiently for the tribulation.

*BOOM* *BOOM*

Suddenly, Lightning struck the beast. It seemed to come out of nowhere. Another strike followed and struck the beast.

Although those two strikes were the starting two, the power exerted by those two was something that even Zhu Long wasn't confident in surviving.

Zhu Long smiled wryly as he saw the beast receive the two strikes,"I don't think that I can even survive one of those. That beast seems to have only been injured a small amount by the strike. It just treated it like a flesh wound!"

Ku w.a.n.g nodded as he heard Zhu Long's words,"There is a reason that beast is going through tribulation. It's extremely powerful, I'm sure that if it attacked with it's full strength, we wouldn't be able to even survive, let alone block it."

*BOOM*

Lightning struck the bull once again but this time, It seemed a lot more powerful. The bull's fur also seemed charred when the lightning hit it. But once again, the Bull seemed unfazed by the strike.

"These are only the initial strikes. These lightning strikes are extremely weak compared to what is about to come.If one cannot even face these initial strikes, Then they are doomed to die when the true Lightning Tribulation occurs!" Ku w.a.n.g explained to Zhu Long who was surprised when the bull treated the Strikes like nothing but flesh wound.
