Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 1120 A Smart Method

Barnes’ thunder was coming!

This was unexpected as his thunder would miss the immortal's thunder again.

The red sword-shaped thunder rushed toward Barnes at an unimaginable speed.

"Howl!"

A ferocious expression appeared on his face as he thumped his chest and roared.

Crack!

The red sword-shaped thunder struck Barnes on the head.

It didn't matter that it was powerful enough to kill him. After all, he had a Golden IndestructibleBody, which meant that he would be revived after fatal injuries.

However, there was a complication!

After the red sword-shaped thunder exploded, it didn't dissipate. On the contrary, it turned intomany tiny swords that stabbed the space randomly.

The immortal, who was standing beside, felt that something was wrong.

It only took her a brief moment to figure out that Barnes’ thunder would prevent his resurrection! Ifhe couldn't be revived, his vital energy would be crushed, and he would not be able to resurrect.Absolute power was the nemesis to all Eternal Bodies in the world!

As she and Barnes were allies now, the immortal couldn't just stand by and watch.

She also had a selfish reason for wanting to help Barnes. She needed him to help her pass hertribulation!

As the immortal moved, the law force surged and covered all the small thunder swords.

Crack, crack.

After the law force collided with the thunder swords, space began to vanish.

Fortunately, the thunder's power had significantly reduced after it had fragmented into tiny swords.Therefore, the immortal was able to destroy most of the thunder swords.

A shadow gradually formed, and the remaining thunder swords immediately gathered, intending toshatter Barnes again. Fortunately, the immortal's law force protected him, and Barnes was able torevive.

Even though he had returned to life, Barnes seemed weaker than before.

"Whoosh!"

When Barnes returned to his original appearance, he gasped for breath, like a drowning child whohad been rescued.

"Thank you,” Barnes said coldly.

The immortal didn't respond. A short moment later, she reminded him, "In a minute, my fourththunderbolt will strike.”

Hearing that, Barnes knew that he needed to activate his second bolt of thunder.

"No, I should trigger at least two bolts of thunder.”

Barnes realized he had only passed the first bolt of thunder and that he had eight more to endure.However, the immortal only had three left. He knew that he had to trigger two thunder attacks thistime. That way, for each of the remaining two thunder attacks for the immortal, Barnes needed toactivate three of his!

"Howl!"

He morphed into ape form again and roared fiercely.

Crack! Crack!

In the sky, two kinds of tribulation cloud surged simultaneously.

"There is hope!" Excitement coursed through Barnes when he saw that his plan was working.

A scarlet thunder and a faint yellow thunder descended from the sky in unison. However, the twothunderbolts were very far away and appeared to be separated by layers of space.

As the two thunder attacks fell rapidly, the immortal and Barnes didn't have time to forge a newplan.

"Switch!" The immortal dashed forward. Quick to react, Barnes moved toward her.

Barnes and the immortal quickly changed positions.

The two bolts of thunder chased the two figures. As Barnes and the immortal had expected, the twobeams of thunder met in midair.

Boom!

The collision had a tremendous effect—it was almost as if the end of the world had arrived, and thewhole space had collapsed. Countless electric snakes dispersed, and the world turned into a sea ofthunder and lightning.

When the scarlet thunder and the faint yellow thunder fought, the scarlet thunder triggered byBarnes showed signs of breaking.

Since this was just the second one for Barnes, it was not powerful. The faint yellow thunder was theimmortal's fourth, and hence, stronger than Barnes’. That was why the scarlet thunder couldn'tdefeat it.

Barnes was overjoyed with the result. His chance to upgrade had finally arrived!

"Howl!"

Barnes activated the third bolt hoping that another thunder would come the moment his secondone was destroyed.

Crack!

Relief coursed through Barnes when the next thunder descended.

As before, Barnes and the immortal continued to exchange positions, and the results were as theyhad expected. Each time, the two beams of thunder consumed each other, and all Barnes and theimmortal needed to do was withstand the remnant thunder power.

As they had figured out a way to cancel each other's thunders, hope blossomed in their hearts.Then, the immortal's fifth thunder met Barnes’ fourth, fifth, and sixth. The three thunder attackstargeting Barnes were a little stronger. To ensure that the rest of the thunder power was suppressed,the immortal and Barnes used their combined forces.

There was only one thunder left for the immortal, and three for Barnes.

"Is this going to work?"

He raised his head and glanced at the sky. He had never been as anxious as he was at this crucialmoment.

No one in history had successfully passed the ninth tribulation, and he was about to accomplish it.The fact that he had passed more than half the tribulation brought him both worry and jubilation.After withstanding the first five thunder attacks, the immortal breathed a sigh of relief as well. Shewas calmer than Barnes as she had anticipated that her Immortal Character would return when herlast thunder arrived.

Once she regained her Immortal Character, all the injuries she had suffered before would disappear,her soul would be complete, and her strength would improve significantly.

She was confident that she could survive the sixth thunder with the Immortal Character.

Crack!

Like before, Barnes’ thunder and the immortal's thunder arrived at the same time.

The two switched their positions and continued to let the thunderbolts consume each other.Everything went unexpectedly smoothly. Although the immortals sixth thunder had neutralizedBarnes" seventh and eighth thunders, her thunder still had power left.

This proved that the power of Barnes’ thunder punishment was similar to the immortal's thunderpunishment. After he passed the ordeal, he would have the same strength as an immortal, if notmore.

"Only one more thunder remains. I'm going to succeed!" He had never been as excited as he was atthis crucial moment!

Crack!

When his last thunder was triggered, he moved toward the immortal, just as he had done severaltimes before.

Only now, he found that the immortal didn't move.

A sense of foreboding coursed through Barnes.

"She..." He suddenly realized that this ruthless creature was going to force him to endure the lastthunder by himself. She wanted him to die!

The scarlet thunder formed a colossal hand and chased Barnes.

The immortal seized this opportunity to move further away from Barnes, drawing her sixth remnantthunder away from him

Now that her Immortal Character was hovering above her, the immortal no longer needed his help.In a few seconds, she would recover her strength, and she wouldn't fear the remaining thunder.She decided to kill the dark creature as she could sense that once he survived the thunderpunishment, he would be a huge threat to her.

Her rational mind told her that she had to kill this dark creature before he became stronger, so thathe would never be a threat to her.

"Ha-ha-ha.” Barnes laughed bitterly.

His heart was empty, and he felt ridiculous for having trusted her.

He was a ruthless dark creature all his life. Once he made an unexpected friend, his mind changedtoo. He never thought that the immortal would betray him like this.

If this had happened in the past, he would have watched her die.

"Such is my fate! I met Darren and became a friend to him. Now, I will die because of him,” Barnesroared.

Hearing the horrifying roar from Barnes, the immortal said coldly, "Do you regret it?"

"Regret? Impossible! If I regret meeting Darren because I might die, then I don't deserve to be hisfriend,” Barnes said firmly.
