Seeing that the fourth tribulation lightning was noticeably weaker, Lin Yi couldn't help but recall a certain saying prevalent among the lore of Huaxia, which speaks of the crucial points as three, six, and nine. He supposed that this heavenly tribulation might follow the same logic.
In the current cultivation world, nine is considered the supreme number. Normal human cultivators would face nine tribulation thunders during their crossing, with the power of three, six, and nine being much stronger than the others.
However, this animal transformation tribulation only had five tribulation thunders, thus making the fifth one the strongest.
Lin Yi surmised that since his Creation Method comprised ten levels in each realm, it could be possible that he might have to face ten tribulation thunders during his crossing.
White Painting weathered the fourth tribulation lightning with sheer determination, resulting in worsening injuries and a bloodied top of the head.
