Danger!
The fifth, sixth, and seventh heavenly thunders descended together, and Lin Fei immediately sensed the peril. He quickly attuned his consciousness and found that when he seized the fifth law, two additional laws unexpectedly emerged. That meant he inadvertently plundered seven laws at once, causing three thunders to descend simultaneously.
However, Lin Fei had never intended to seize three laws at once. There must have been a problem somewhere. But this wasn't the time to investigate. Lin Fei had no time for deep inquiries.
"Saber World!"
Lin Fei immediately deployed the Saber World. But as the three thunders descended, especially the seventh thunder, it was like a colossal pillar of light, similar to a massive mountain, falling directly.
It was an incredibly shocking sight. Many were surprised, but upon seeing the giant pillar of light, They were at a loss for words.
"True Monarch Lin is facing the fifth, sixth, and even seventh thunder all at once."
"Lin Fei's strength, how powerful has it become?"
"Facing the fifth, sixth, and seventh thunders simultaneously..."
"Maybe this is what being a True Monarch means..."
Many didn't suspect an anomaly with the heavenly thunders. They simply thought Lin Fei was confident enough to transcend the fifth, sixth, and seventh thunders together.
But only Lin Fei knew there was an unpredictable twist in his tribulation. However, investigating this had no use now.
Lin Fei focused intently, trying to use the Saber World to block these three thunders. But when the thunders struck,
"Pop."
Almost instantly, Lin Fei's Saber World shattered. It seemed to have hardly any defensive effect. After all, it was the simultaneous descent of the fifth, sixth, and seventh thunders.
The seventh thunder, a vast column of light, enveloped Lin Fei entirely, and even covered the entire tribulation grounds.
It was fortunate that the Grand Unity True Immortal had reinforced the tribulation grounds last time. Otherwise, this strike would have completely destroyed the tribulation area and even shaken the entire Ancient City.
As Lin Fei's Saber World shattered, his physical body was engulfed by the three thunders. However, the thunders that threatened Lin Fei, once they entered his body, seemed to have plunged into a 'quagmire.' The strength of Lin Fei's physical particles was astonishingly formidable. The thunderous energy that penetrated his body struggled to advance and was constantly being eroded.
Lin Fei hadn't even needed to use the power of his 2,600 particle worlds. The three thunders were completely annihilated by his physical particles and vanished without a trace. Even Lin Fei was slightly taken aback, finding it almost unbelievable. His particles hadn't even been destroyed by a fraction.

"Did I just withstand the seventh thunder?"
Lin Fei had initially felt in danger, But now, where was the danger? His physical body was even stronger than he had imagined. Even the assault of three thunders simultaneously couldn't affect his physical particles. It seemed that Lin Fei's consumption of the origins of one hundred and three small worlds was not in vain. It had qualitatively enhanced his physical body.
With the seventh thunder gone, Lin Fei finally had a chance to breathe. He didn't immediately proceed to the eighth thunder. Although at the beginning of the tribulation, Lin Fei had planned to withstand all nine thunders of his sixth tribulation, the unexpected changes in the thunders had just occurred.
Lin Fei needed to understand how these changes came about. Would there be more such surprises? If the eighth and ninth thunders were to descend simultaneously, Lin Fei could be in danger. Therefore, it was crucial to ascertain the cause.
Focusing his attention, Lin Fei's consciousness returned to the sea of origin. He reflected on what had changed during his previous foray into the sea to plunder the laws. Upon careful recollection, Lin Fei pinpointed the cause.
Previously, he had inadvertently plundered three laws simultaneously while transcending the second, third, and fourth thunders. This act unintentionally brought down three heavenly thunders at once, leading to the simultaneous appearance of the fifth, sixth, and seventh thunders.
Fortuitously, Lin Fei's current physical prowess was vastly superior, reaching the true level of a Martial True Monarch, and even beyond the ordinary Martial True Monarchs. Otherwise, the situation could have been dire.
Now that he knew the reason, Lin Fei became even more cautious. He still needed to attract the eighth thunder. Therefore, he carefully controlled his consciousness to seize just one world law, fully aware of the impending challenge. The eighth heavenly thunder was a rarely attempted and nearly undocumented tribulation in the vast history of the Divine Realm. Its nature remained unknown to all.
Soon, Lin Fei witnessed the formation of a massive cloud in the void, an imposing cloud that looked almost like an enormous eye from afar. An invisible pressure descended upon the entire Ancient City, causing even those not undergoing tribulation to feel apprehensive. Clearly, this eighth thunder would possess a more terrifying force than the seventh. Once it struck, it was bound to be a cataclysmic event of unimaginable power.
At that moment, the dark clouds seemed to be brewing, accumulating energy. Streaks of lightning flashed, heralding the descent of the eighth heavenly thunder. Unlike the previous thunders, this one was not a massive pillar of light but a mere streak of lightning. Yet, this very streak, upon flashing, shattered the void.
"Crack."
The void fractured as if a smooth mirror had been densely covered with cracks. This was the shattering of the void.
Witnessing this, Lin Fei's heart sank. The shattering of the void was proof of the immense power of the eighth thunder. It was capable of shattering the void, comparable to the might of a True Monarch. This was a "True Monarch level" thunder!
Indeed, such a thunder had never been documented before. The seventh thunder could be withstood by a sufficiently strong Martial God. But the eighth thunder was different. It transcended a limit, breaking a critical point. It was no longer a force that a Martial God could contend with. This was the power of a "True Monarch" level.
Only a True Monarch could withstand it. Anyone below that level, facing the eighth thunder, would undoubtedly perish. And this was just the eighth thunder; the ninth thunder would likely be even more terrifying. No wonder there was no record of the eighth and ninth thunders in the history of the Divine Realm. They exceeded the limits of a Martial God. Invoking the eighth and ninth thunders was almost a suicidal act for a Martial God.
But Lin Fei was not a Martial God. He was a True Monarch, a genuine Martial True Monarch!
Facing the eighth thunder, Lin Fei's eyes sparkled with determination.
"Boom."
The next moment, the eighth thunder struck Lin Fei directly.
