However, as soon as this layer of black charcoal fell, the newly formed skin on him turned black again, and that thunderous power was not completely digested.
Just as Qi Tian said, "He is immortal," his body repeatedly went through the process of charring and regeneration.
After repeating this more than ten times, his body no longer changed.
To be precise, he was no longer injured. Instead, his newly born, tender white skin seemed as if it could be broken by a single touch, yet a faint layer of lightning still flickered within it. However, this time, the lightning was not hostile; it had been refined into a part of his body.
"Good heavens, could this kid be even more monstrous than Lin Xiao?" Zhang Wuwei was stunned. Qi Tian, in his current state, looked far more powerful than Lin Xiao. He didn't believe Lin Xiao could have survived the previous lightning unharmed.
"If Lin Xiao hasn't broken through, he's no match for the current Qi Tian." Just as the Old Heavenly Master had said, the current Qi Tian posed a slight threat to him.
It was the feeling of entering the same tier.
Before this, he wouldn't have felt this way. He hadn't expected that a celestial artifact armor would boost his strength so much.
As they spoke, the heavenly tribulation above seemed to sense that something was not right.
The lightning of that intensity that descended earlier had not turned Qi Tian into nothingness; instead, it had allowed Qi Tian to improve his strength under such circumstances.
It hesitated.
Qi Tian, clad in the armor, stared at the sky with a hint of anticipation on his face.
The first two waves of lightning had increased his strength and physique by countless times. Now, any subsequent lightning strike would likely allow him to advance further on the path of the Hundred Refining Divine Mechanism!
He finally understood how to walk the body-refining path within the Hundred Refining Divine Mechanism to its end.
This heavenly tribulation was the most crucial part!
Heaven's might tempered the body, and lightning reforged it. He had finally found his direction.
The heavenly tribulation in the sky seemed to be in deep thought at this moment. A long time passed without any new lightning descending, which made Qi Tian impatient. He shouted upward, "Is that all? If that's all, I'm leaving?"
With that, he prepared to turn and leave.
This exclamation provoked the thunderclouds in the sky. After churning, another bolt of purplish-black lightning, three times the intensity of the first, descended.
This time, Qi Tian followed the same procedure as before.
However, the difference was that this time, his skin did not turn completely black like the previous one. Instead, there were only a few faint marks, and more of the thunderous power flowed through his body.
Moreover, the celestial artifact armor swallowed significantly more lightning this time than during the second wave, leaving little of the heavenly tribulation to fall directly on Qi Tian.
"Good heavens... this kid's strength has improved so much in an instant?"
Zhang Wuwei secretly marveled. This Qi Tian seemed a bit too monstrous.
But Qi Tian was clearly in high spirits and showed no intention of stopping. He tilted his head back and declared loudly, "Do you know why my name is Qi Tian?"
"It's not about living as long as heaven, but rather, my surname is not 'Qi.' If it were, then I would be 'Qi Tian,' riding above the heavens!"
Qi Tian was now provoking the Heavenly Dao relentlessly.
And his goal was simple.
