Chapter 920: Chapter 926: Tribulation Transcendence
Seven years had passed in a flash.
On this day, Da Qing, Xiaoqing, Cang, Shen, and Mu—the five of them—walked out of the Spirit Realm and came before the Purification Spirit Realm.
Some people were very confident in Li Zhirui, while others still showed a trace of worry, concerned there might be issues.
The reason they suddenly gathered here was one alone!
That was because Li Zhirui had just informed them through Soul Voice Transmission that he would transcend the tribulation today!
"Notify all our clansmen to come over. Let’s take this opportunity to set everything up. Besides all Cultivators, try to take away as many Spiritual Objects from the island as possible," Da Qing said to the others.
"Okay."
"Li Zhirui is about to undergo his Tribulation Transcendence, everyone is welcome to observe!"
Together, the five amplified their voices across the entirety of Wanxian Island, heard not only by the Cultivators but also by the millions of ordinary people!
Everyone looked up towards the source of the voice, some doubtful, thinking that it was impossible for Li Zhirui to breakthrough so quickly; others were overjoyed, as Li Zhirui’s breakthrough meant that the Li family would have a more suitable cultivation lineage for practicing the Wanling Sutra!
If successful, it would be beneficial for all the cultivators of the Li family.
Whether they believed it or not, most of the clansmen gathered around.
On the first day, there was no activity, because Jiang Fengwu, Li Chengsheng, and many other clansmen were cultivating, which Da Qing specifically used a Secret Technique to inform Li Zhirui about.
However, the spectating clansmen were becoming impatient, beginning to discuss among themselves, but seeing Da Qing and the others standing around the Purification Spirit Realm like Divine Generals dissuaded some of their distrust.
But as days passed, the patience of the clansmen steadily dissolved. Many had already left, believing it all to be a lie!
Until Li Chengsheng and others finished their cultivation and came before Da Qing and the others!
"Uncle Da Qing, is Dad really going to transcend the tribulation?" Li Chengsheng asked curiously and anxiously.
"We are just waiting for you," Da Qing opened his eyes and said, "This is the last chance that Jiu is giving you here!"
With that, he used a Secret Technique to contact Li Zhirui, who had been waiting in the Secret Realm for a long time.
Boom—
The next instant, when Li Zhirui left the Spirit Realm and set foot into the Profound Origin Realm, the Heavenly Dao immediately sensed that he had exceeded the limits of this realm!
In the blink of an eye, clouds of tribulation swarmed, and in just moments, layers of immensely thick tribulation clouds appeared above his head in the sky, with thunder roaring and wind and lightning returning, presenting a terrifying scene of doomsday!
Such a massive scale of Thunder Tribulation made those clansmen believe, and they all surged over eagerly, even the Secular Clansmen who were unable to cultivate made movements to get closer and clearly see the first ancestor of the Li family to undergo Tribulation Transcendence!
And this, coincidentally, also facilitated the actions of Da Qing and the others.
To avoid affecting Li Zhirui, they placed the Dream Millet Fragrance in a few secluded corners. Unnoticed by everyone, once the fragrance was lit, wisps of blue smoke emerged and dissolved into the heaven and earth without detection!
At the same time, Da Qing and the others each controlled countless puppets, avoiding the sight of the clansmen, moving around various places on Wanxian Island, collecting various Spiritual Objects and Methods—their goal was to take away everything that could be taken!
Roar Roar Roar!
As they were acting, the first Tribulation Thunder of the Ascension Tribulation thunderously struck down.
The speed was so fast that even Nascent Soul Cultivators could only see a flash of white light, completely unable to discern the shape of the Tribulation Thunder!
Li Zhirui responded calmly, specks of Spirit Light emerging, transforming into towering ancient trees that blocked the Tribulation Thunder, their gnarled roots spreading and continuously whipping against it.
Although the roots turned to ash the moment they touched it, under the support of Li Zhirui’s Mana, an infinite number of roots completely submerged the Tribulation Thunder!
Before Li Zhirui could even catch his breath, the second lightning strike blasted towards him quickly.
Compared to the first, somewhat slender, lightning strike, it was now as thick as a bowl!
Li Zhirui’s response was no longer so relaxed, a massive amount of Mana surged out, forming an incredibly thick iron vine that furiously lashed at the Tribulation Thunder.
And just before turning into ash, its size suddenly expanded, taking the lightning strike with it in a near-death strike.
The booming thunder roared, one after another, lightning strikes kept falling, giving Li Zhirui no chance to breathe.
After withstanding eight lightning strikes, Li Zhirui’s condition was very poor!
Moreover, even though he had prepared many precious Pills to restore his Mana, he used almost all of them amid the successive lightning strikes.
Crack—
A very faint cracking sound suddenly rang out, everyone looked around for the source of the strange noise, not knowing where it came from.
Da Qing and the others gazed up at the Tribulation clouds in the sky with solemn expressions, their eyes full of worry.
Because they knew that the cracking sound was coming from the Tianming!
This meant that even the space of the Profound Origin Realm was somewhat unable to withstand it under this lightning strike!
With the thunder rumbling and the sound of cracking, a millstone-thick Tribulation Thunder poured down from the clouds, heading straight for Li Zhirui!
Under this lightning strike, the terrifying aura made all the watching clansmen feel panic as if they were mere ants, unable to even conceive a thought of resistance!
"How can Ascension Tribulation be so terrifying?!" Da Qing, losing his usual calm, cried out in a panic.
They had seen Dao Tong undergo his Tribulation Transcendence! Although it was just recorded with a Memory Stone, his thunder tribulation was definitely not this terrifying!
This was the last lightning strike! Li Zhirui, with a steadfast gaze, watched as the Tribulation Thunder flew towards him. No matter whether his meridians could withstand it or not, he swallowed a handful of precious Pills, Mana gushing out uncontrollably like a torrent.
Hundreds of thousands of Wooden Shields gathered and piled up, numerous Thunder Vine Spirit Seeds scattered around, and he also summoned his Life-bound Magic Treasure. With a pinch of a mantra, Thousand Spirits transformed into a dense forest, blocking in front of Li Zhirui.
The Tribulation Thunder and Wooden Shields collided mid-air, lightning exploding in an instant, turning day to night, blinding everyone.
With a loud bang, Li Zhirui’s Divine Power ultimately couldn’t withstand the lightning strike and was shattered to pieces.
Fortunately, the lightning strike also lost much of its power and was no longer as thick.
Though the Thunder Vine couldn’t withstand the Tribulation Thunder, fortunately, there were enough of them to buy Li Zhirui a few moments.
In this life-and-death moment, where could Li Zhirui care much?
Using this brief moment, he once again violently refined a large number of precious Pills, the restless Mana causing his Dantian and meridians immense discomfort, but he had no other choice but to grit his teeth and endure.
Countless Spirit Lights flickered in mid-air, nurtured by a massive amount of Mana, eventually turning into a lifelike Vine Dragon, fighting fiercely with the Tribulation Thunder.
After a long while, the thunder strike once again diminished, but the Vine Dragon, in a death explosion, left nothing but broken black vines all over the ground.
