Chapter 234: You Had to Undergo the Lightning Tribulation?

Snowfall Peak…

All the elders and inner court disciples gathered here, staring anxiously at Li Ran.

“How long has it been?”

“At least an hour, right?”

“What is the Sheng Zi waiting for?”

“I don’t know. Perhaps it’s not time yet.”

“The Sheng Zi is so handsome!”

—

Hearing the disciples’ discussions, Elder Sun frowned slightly.

Yes, what was Li Ran waiting for?

Clearly, his spirit energy was abundant and his soul was pure. He had already reached the standard of Heavenly Tribulation Realm. Why was he still unwilling to break through?

The second elder asked in confusion, “Could it be that the Sheng Zi has encountered a problem?”

Elder Sun shook his head. “That shouldn’t be the case. I don’t feel anything unusual…”

As soon as she finished speaking, she sensed something and looked into the sky in shock.

“This is!!”

—

“Guards of the Three Realms, Fifth Emperor welcome.”

An invisible energy reverberated in the world, and the sky that was originally cloudless suddenly darkened.

Dark gray clouds gathered above Li Ran’s head.

The aura from the ancient desert spread out, causing everyone’s hearts to tremble.

Everyone looked up in astonishment. The expressions of the elders were incomparably horrifying.

“Myriad God’s Ceremony, using Thunder…”

The dark clouds were stirred by the invisible hand, slowly forming a huge vortex.

Lightning condensed within.

The air was suppressed to the extreme.

Li Ran’s clothes fluttered, and the golden ancient seal on his body gradually spread, covering his skin. It was like a blazing sun in the dark sky.

Thunderbolts wrapped around the dark clouds. Thunder rumbled, lightning flashed!

“Thunderbolt inside, Thunder God’s hidden name!

“Golden Lightning Curse, cleave me!”

The sound of wind and thunder suddenly stopped.

Heaven and earth seemed to be silent for a moment.

After that, the vortex of the dark clouds spun rapidly, and a thunderbolt with a weight of tens of thousands of kilograms slashed down.

Boom!

The terrifying and majestic lightning instantly drowned Li Ran.

“Not good, the Sheng Zi was struck by lightning!”

“Should we save him?!”

The disciples cried out in alarm.

When had they ever seen such a scene?

Elder Sun’s throat tightened slightly, her voice hoarse, “I’ve never seen it before… Do you still have to undergo tribulation to break through?”

“……”

Like puppets, the elders shook their heads in a daze.

Just now, Li Ran’s aura was mixed, and the three Dharma idols of Buddha, Dao, and Devil appeared. No one could sense that this golden spell was his own divine ability.

They all thought that it was a phenomenon of heaven and earth caused by a breakthrough in cultivation.

To think that a Nascent Soul would be able to attract tribulation lightning after breaking through to the Heavenly Tribulation Realm?

This was too exaggerated.

Even though they had lived for hundreds of years, they had never heard of such a thing.

Elder Sun swallowed a mouthful of saliva. “This is just a Heavenly Tribulation Realm. If we break through the Heavenly Tribulation Realm, wouldn’t he have to pierce through the heavens?

“Just what kind of background does this Sheng Zi Li of ours have!

—

Li Ran’s body trembled from the lightning.

“It really hurts!”

This move was already incomparably powerful. It had the ability to cross realms and kill people. Moreover, as his cultivation base increased, its power was incomparable.

The lightning with the intent of extermination almost instantly broke through his defense.

Right now, his entire body was suffused with blood energy, and his curled muscles were covered in ancient seals.

He already activated both the bloodline energy and the Heaven Seizing Cultivation Technique at the same time, and he was resisting the baptism of the Divine Lightning of the Nine Heavens to ensure that his body wouldn’t be annihilated by the lightning.

At the same time, he released his mind and guided the destructive lightning towards his sea of consciousness.

When the three Dharma idols merged, they howled towards the sky. Dao energy, devil intent, and Buddhist light intertwined together, forming a shocking picture scroll under the gloomy sky.

“It hurts, it hurts, it hurts too much!”

The lightning had forcefully charged into his Violet Palace, as if his soul was about to be torn apart. This kind of intense pain was simply not something a human could endure.

On the other side of the red line, Yi Qinglan let out a cry of surprise. “Li Ran, what are you doing?”

Their senses were shared, and Li Ran’s pain was transmitted to her.

“Didn’t you say I need the Divine Lightning to temper my body?”

“And then?”

“Then I’ll hit myself!”

“???” Yi Qinglan said hatefully, “You little thief, don’t you care about your life? Divine lightning?”

If she hadn’t sensed that his aura had stabilized and that he hadn’t suffered any serious injuries, she would have wished for nothing more than to fly straight to the Xuanling Mountain.

“Leng Wuyan, you’re right there. You’re not even stopping him. You’re letting him do whatever he wants?”

She grumbled in her heart.

Little did she know that Leng Wuyan had been watching in the dark, ready to fish Li Ran out at any moment.

Yi Qinglan replied, “It’s just a mere Heavenly Tribulation Realm. To you, it’s nothing. Why are you so anxious?”

Li Ran forcefully endured the pain, “For the sake of someone I like… Together, I must break through as soon as possible. This little pain is nothing.”

This was his obsession.

The red line went silent for a long time before Yi Qinglan said in a low voice, “Actually, you don’t have to go all out. Perhaps she doesn’t care about your cultivation?”

Li Ran shook his head. “She doesn’t care about it. She’s always been the one protecting me, but who can protect her?”

Yi Qinglan muttered, “Protect her?”

“Not only do I have to stand by her side, I also have to become someone she can depend on!

“If she wants to avoid the world, I’ll accompany her to watch the stars and clouds. If she wants to appear, I’ll kill all the enemies in the world for her!

“Because she’s my woman!”

Li Ran did not use his soul to send a voice transmission, but instead roared like a demon.

It wasn’t because of anything else, but because it hurt too much…

Yi Qinglan sat on the bed in a daze like a statue.

“His… woman?”

Blush quickly spread across her snow-white face. Her heart pounded violently as an unprecedented emotion filled her heart.

It was as if a seed had been planted a long time ago. At this moment, it finally broke through her heart and completely bloomed.

Her eyes sparkled, “Defiant disciple, what do you want this poor Daoist to do?”

At this moment, Li Ran’s voice came from the red line,

“Master Qinglan, I’d better break the red line first. Otherwise, you’ll also feel pain.”

“No!”

“What?”

Yi Qinglan’s face was flushed red, and her eyes were resplendent as she said firmly, “Don’t break the red line. I want to accompany you!”

—

Leng Wuyan stood in a corner, looking at Li Ran, who was struggling with lightning. Her eyes were slightly red, and her eyes were misty.

“Kill all the enemies in the world for her?

“It turns out that his efforts to become stronger weren’t just for that matter. Instead, he wanted to protect me.

“Defiant disciple, you only know how to deceive my tears.”

She rubbed her eyes, her voice choked with sobs. “He shouted so loudly. It must be painful, right?

“This idiot…”
