Chapter 996 Confused
The thunder punishment of Conflicting Cultivation astonished Darren.
There was only Double Cultivation in the ancient times, but not Conflicting Cultivation. This thunder
punishment was only for cultivators of Conflicting Cultivation during his era. Why would it appear in the
ancient times?
Darren was puzzled.
He then spread his spiritual sense around the ind.
Darren followed the route of the thunder punishment, but to his astonishment, he could not detect any
aura of any living creature.
"What''s going on?"
Darren flew carefully to where the thunder punishment descended.
After flying for several minutes, he reached a dark area that was burned by the thunder punishment. He
did not dare to go to the epicenter where the lightning struck, so he released his spiritual sense to
inspect the area.
The violent thunder punishment had bombarded the ground as it exploded into shes of lightning ball
that wantonly spread in the air. Even the bright sky had turned dark red.
Thick smoke billowed on the scorched ground. Darren''s spiritual sense was able to go through the
smoke, but he did not find anything there.
Boom!
The ck lightning that hovered in the sky had finallynded. The amount of energy was a hundred
times stronger than the dark red thunder punishment.
"That''s definitely the thunder punishment of Conflicting Cultivation!"
Darren could never forget the thunder punishment of Conflicting Cultivation. He was almost killed by
the thunder punishment for many times!
"Argh!"
At that moment, a loud roar came from the center of the thunder punishment explosion.
"Who is it?"
Darren shouted, but there was no response.
"Avatar,e here quickly!" Darren summoned his avatar.
He thought that perhaps only the Rule Soul Avatar could figure out what was going on. After all, his
ability to analyze objects was unparalleled!
"Roger that."
After a cold reply, the Rule Soul Avatar appeared right away.
He blinked his silver eyes and looked directly at the center of the thunder punishment.
Darren had never seen his avatar so confused before.
"Why is there a thunder punishment for Conflicting Cultivation in the ancient times? Do you have any
clue?" Darren asked.
"Uhm...It''s tooplicated,"
the Rule Soul Avatar replied as he continued to observe the withered and burned ground.
Buzz!
The Rule Soul Avatar used his silver eyes at its maximum amount to forcibly observe the ancient
Universe Rule.

Crack!
A few momentster, a flicker of lightning appeared in his eyes, and the Rule Soul Avatar immediately
closed his eyes.
The avatar''s face twitched, and his brows and lips quivered as if he were in pain.
"This thunder punishment of Conflicting Cultivation did not originate from this ancient world."
"What?" Darren was dumbfounded. "What do you mean? Then that must mean..."
"Yes, it traveled through space and time. Most likely it is from our era."
Darren was shocked. ''That''s amazing. How could the thunder punishment travel through time and
space?'' he wondered.
"If so, can you detect who''s surviving this tribtion?" Darren asked.
"I don''t know. Even with my silver eyes, I can''t see through the thunder punishment of Conflicting
Cultivation. I only saw a stream of water flow from the deep cave where the thunder punishment came
from. That is all," the Rule Soul Avatar said.
The Rule Soul Avatar''s silver eyes were very powerful, but they were not omnipotent. If he tried to
diagnose anything that was beyond him, he would only get severely injured. For instance, when he
tried to analyze the god''s golden power, his eyes were badly hurt.
Although the thunder punishment of Conflicting Cultivation was a result of the Universe Rule in his era,
its level was too high that it was close to aw. The avatar''s silver eyes could notprehend it.
"In that case, we''re going to have to wait until the thunder punishment dissipates before we go
exploring again," Darren suggested.
"Okay." The Rule Soul Avatar nodded.
Afterwards, Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar flew to another deserted ind.
On the ind, Darren triggered the stone of thunder punishment to enter the Holy Realm again. He had
hoped to survive the tribtions so that he could be a tribtion holy warrior.
Since he had the Shura Force, the thunder punishment to the Holy Realm was as easy as pie to
Darren. Therefore, he managed to pass through with it in only six hours.
"Finally, I''m a one-tribtion inferior holy warrior! Not bad."
By then, Darren''s strength had significantly improved.
''Maybe I can defeat a four-tribtion junior holy warrior with the Shura Force," Darren thought to
himself.
"My real body, why not take advantage of this opportunity to go through two more tribtions to
be a junior holy warrior," his avatar advised.
"Hmm. But I''m not strong enough to activate further thunder punishments," Darren replied.
"That won''t be a problem. I will help you."
"Okay. Do you have any idea how?"
"Yes."
All of a sudden, a strong stream of ancient spiritual energy rushed straight towards Darren''s meridians.
"Go! Refine it quickly!"
"What?" Darren gasped. The speed of the enormous amount of ancient spiritual energy that entered
his body was even faster than the speed of his Assimtion Skill.
He then focused all his attention on the refinement of the ancient spiritual energy.
After seven days, Darren had already reached the peak of an inferior holy warrior and was about to
face the second thunder punishment.
The avatar took out another stone that could help trigger the thunder punishment. He immediately
handed it to Darren.
Without hesitation, Darren activated the second thunder punishment.
Crack!
As the ear-splitting thunderbolt descended, Darren stood proudly and allowed it to hit his body.
After three days, the thunder punishment had concluded. Subsequently, Darren could sessfully
advance to a two-tribtion inferior holy warrior. As long as he went through another thunder
punishment, he could be a three-tribtion junior holy warrior.
However, he was not in a hurry at the moment. "Why is there still thunder punishment descending at
that uninhabited ind?" he wondered curiously.
"Yes, you''re right. That thunder punishment of Conflicting Cultivation has been going on for ten days. It
must be endured by someone extremely powerful. That one is much more terrifying than the one you
went through." The Rule Soul Avatar also kept an eye on the other ind. As soon as the thunder
punishment disappeared, he wanted to check it out immediately.
"Never mind. I need to enhance my cultivation base first."
Darren sat cross-legged on the ground as he relentlessly absorbed the ancient spiritual energy. With
the Rule Soul Avatar helping him with his arcane skill, his power gradually increased.
Three months had passed. By then, Darren had finally reached the peak of a two-tribtion inferior
holy warrior, and was about to reach the three-tribtion junior holy warrior level.
"Phew!"
After three months of cultivation, Darren opened his eyes and felt that his strength had remarkably
boosted. The rate of his advancement was also astonishing!
"An ordinary person would need at least ten thousand years to activate the thunder punishment, but I
can activate my third holy tribtion in just a few months. My avatar is really powerful!"
Darren attributed his fast cultivation speed to his avatar. If he did it on his own without the Assimtion
Skill, it would take him at least a thousand years to reach where he was at right now.
Thus, Darren triggered the thunder punishment again so that he could advance to the three-tribtion
junior holy warrior level.
Bang!
The third thunder punishment was more forceful than the previous ones. The ear-splitting thunder
made his heart skip a beat.
"Oh my God! The power has intensified by several hundred times," Darren murmured as he stared at
the sky.
"Do you want me to help you break the thunder punishment?" the avatar asked.
"There''s no need. I''ll deal with it myself!" Darren said confidently.
