【Chapter 148】News from Grandfather
The white light dissipated, and Nangong Chenyu half-knelt on the ground, leaning on the Chen Guang sword, with a hint of bright red on the corner of his mouth.
The power of the second thunder tribulation was much greater than the first one. Nangong Chenyu felt a dull pain in his internal organs, obviously he was injured.
Yipigu sat down, put the Dust Light Sword on the ground beside him, took out the healing pill from the space ring and swallowed it.
Afterwards, he refined the elixir while practicing the body-refining technique.
The dark clouds that were split by the lightning quickly gathered together again.
The thunder tribulation seemed unwilling to give Nangong Chenyu time to rest. Not long after, the third thunder tribulation came.
Without any thought, Nangong Chenyu condensed a protective shield around him. Without waiting for the lightning to approach, he raised the Dust Light Sword and slashed at the falling lightning.
White sword light flew out from the Dust Light Sword and collided with lightning in mid-air.
The loud "bang" accompanied by the "rumble" of thunder frightened the monsters on the surrounding mountains and made them tremble.
Although the power of lightning was greatly weakened, the defensive shield condensed by Nangong Chenyu was still easily broken. Lightning struck him and he groaned uncontrollably. A fishy and sweet taste rushed through his throat, but he swallowed it down as if nothing had happened.
There seemed to be a pair of eyes in the sky watching Nangong Chenyu. Seeing that he had suffered three thunder tribulations, he was still standing straight, flashing lightning with dissatisfaction and making muffled thunder sounds.
The dark sky brightens from time to time.
The white tiger raised its head and glanced at the sky, then tried to reduce its presence.
Seeing that Nangong Chenyu was fine, Ye Yishen slowly loosened his clenched hands.
Sitting cross-legged on the spot, Nangong Chenyu took out a bottle of elixir and fed it all into his mouth.
Soon, the fourth thunder tribulation came.
Nangong Chenyu recited silently in his heart, and with a gesture of the sword in his hand, the Chenguan Sword turned into thousands of sword beams, which intertwined with the lightning in the air and burst out with dazzling light.
A deafening roar resounded through the sky.
“Boom~”
The lightning that was originally as thick as an arm ended up being only as thick as an adult's thumb when it struck Nangong Chenyu.
The dark sky was filled with muffled thunder again, as if expressing dissatisfaction with Nangong Chenyu's easy survival of the fourth thunder tribulation.
The fifth thunder tribulation followed.
Looking at the lightning that was twice as thick as the previous one, Nangong Chenyu put away the Chen Guang Sword, condensed the spiritual energy in his right hand and raised his hand to attack the incoming lightning.
The attack was immediately dispersed by lightning, but a bright purple light covered up the lightning. The lightning struck Nangong Chenyu's right hand and was collected by him into the thunder pool in his personal space.
The light dissipated, and Nangong Chenyu looked disheveled, but he was still standing straight.
"Boom~Boom~" The sky continued to emit muffled thunder.
Half an hour passed in a blink of an eye, but the sixth thunder tribulation had not yet fallen. The dark clouds gathered in the sky and pressed down layer by layer, so heavy that it seemed that you could touch it with your hand.
Nangong Chenyu looked up at the sky with a solemn expression. This Heavenly Dao really was trying its best to kill him when he was undergoing the tribulation.
The sky suddenly became extremely depressing. Bolts of lightning roared like a giant dragon, cutting through the sky and rushing towards Nangong Chenyu with the power to destroy the world.
These lightning bolts were stronger than the other, and Nangong Chenyu was alone and could only block one of them. Two bolts of lightning struck him at the same time. He spit out blood and fell straight down.
His figure was also submerged in the lightning.
Ye Yishen, who was standing outside the thunder tribulation, saw this scene and ran towards Nangong Chenyu regardless of anything. As for his promise to Nangong Chenyu, he had already forgotten it.
He just tried to lift his foot, but couldn't move it.
I tried to lift it again, but still couldn't move it.
When he lowered his head, he saw the white tiger holding his feet.
His eyes were red, and he shouted sternly: "Let go."
As he said this, he swung it again, but failed to shake off the white tiger.
The white tiger shook its head: "Awoo~" and did not let go.
Looking at Nangong Chenyu who was engulfed by lightning, Ye Yisheng felt anxious. Now he naturally understood and knew that Nangong Chenyu's thunder tribulation was abnormal.
For a cultivator to go through tribulation is a life-and-death situation.
But the Heavenly Dao of this world obviously does not want to give Nangong Chenyu a lifetime, and wants Nangong Chenyu to die in the thunder tribulation. At this moment, even if Nangong Chenyu took out the Five Elements Lightning Umbrella he gave him, it would not be able to stop the lightning that was falling one after another.
"I told you to let go." Ye Yishen roared, gathering spiritual energy in his hands, trying to lift up the white tiger that was hugging his legs.
The result was naturally unsuccessful.
Baihu was annoyed by Ye Yisheng's troubles, so he directly used the pressure of the Nascent Soul stage on him.
The next moment, Ye Yishen was frozen.
Unable to move, Ye Yishen’s eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the white tiger.
The thunder tribulation had fallen normally before, and even if the cultivators nearby heard it, they would just stand far away and not get close. But the thunder continued to sound, and those monks standing in the distance, whether they had bad intentions or not, all moved towards the place where the lightning fell.
The center of thunderstorm.
The falling lightning seemed to have all fallen on Nangong Chenyu, but in fact, it was all sucked into the thunder pool by the portable space.
The Heavenly Dao didn't care whether Nangong Chenyu was dead or not, and sent all the remaining lightning to him.
If Nangong Chenyu didn’t have a personal space, he might really be smashed to pieces.
After eighteen bolts of lightning struck, the lightning gradually dissipated, revealing the figure of Nangong Chenyu. The Heavenly Dao seemed to sense Nangong Chenyu's breath. A muffled thunder sounded in the sky, and the calamity clouds reluctantly dispersed.
After looking at the sky, Baihu let go of Ye Yishen.
After discovering that he could move, Ye Yishen raised his foot and ran towards Nangong Chenyu.
At this time, Nangong Chenyu felt pain all over his body and he couldn't use any strength at all. He could only lie on the ground and wait for his injuries to heal.
Ye Yishen ran to where Nangong Chenyu had stood before, and saw a human-shaped charcoal.
"Ah Yu."
Nangong Chenyu's fingers moved slightly.
Ye Yishen happened to see it and confirmed that Nangong Chenyu was still alive. He did not immediately go to help Nangong Chenyu, but looked up at the sky, waiting for the spiritual rain to fall.
Those monks who wanted to see who was struck by lightning were attacked by stone sculptures of monsters as soon as they landed on the top of the mountain.
Ye Yishen turned his head and after confirming that the stone sculpture of the monster could deal with those people with bad intentions, he continued to look up at the sky.
Time passes by every second.
The dark clouds in the sky have all dissipated, revealing the blue sky and white clouds. A ray of warm sunlight penetrated the clouds and fell on Nangong Chenyu. At this moment, the spiritual energy in his body reached an unprecedented level of condensation and purity.
His cultivation in the early stage of Jindan has been stabilized.
I have undergone a complete transformation again.
Unfortunately, there was no spiritual rain, and his body, which was injured by lightning, could only recover slowly.
Ye Yisheng frowned, not knowing the situation.
"What's going on?"
"Why isn't it raining yet?"
The white tiger looked up at the sky and shouted, "Awoo~" Don't wait any longer. The Heaven wants to strike Nangong Chenyu to death, so how could it possibly send down spiritual rain!
Nangong Chenyu saw through his spiritual sense that the stone sculpture of the monster drove away those who wanted to watch the fun and take advantage of the situation, and then he said to Ye Yisheng with difficulty: "Ayi, help me up."
Ye Yishen did not despise Nangong Chenyu who had turned into charcoal at all, and carefully helped him up.
Leaning on Ye Yisheng, Nangong Chenyu looked at the white tiger squatting beside him: "White Tiger, go pick up the monster stone sculpture."
“Ouch~”
The white tiger jumped out at once.
Ye Yisheng asked his own guess: "Ah Yu, after you have overcome the calamity, will there be no spiritual rain?"
"Okay." Nangong Chenyu took out the spaceship from the space ring and handed it to Ye Yisheng, "Let's leave here first."
"Okay." Putting the spaceship aside, Ye Yishen took out the healing pill and gave it to Nangong Chenyu to take, and then he injected spiritual energy into the spaceship.
When the spaceship became bigger, Ye Yishen brought Nangong Chenyu into the spaceship.
The white tiger picked up the stone sculpture of the monster and jumped onto the spaceship.
The spaceship flew into the sky like an arrow.
On the spaceship, Nangong Chenyu stopped Ye Yisheng from dissolving the effects of the elixir for him, and took out a stone sculpture of a demon beast in the Nascent Soul stage, a Spirit Transformation stage, a Void Refining stage, and a Fusion stage and gave them to Ye Yisheng.
He also used his telepathic consciousness to tell Ye Yishen the method of controlling the stone sculpture of the monster.
Seeing this, Baihu took out three stone sculptures of monsters and explained, "The other one was broken."
Nangong Chenyu, who had previously released his spiritual sense to watch, naturally knew what was going on.
A middle-aged male cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage had just landed on the top of the mountain when he was attacked by a stone sculpture of a demon beast in the Nascent Soul stage. The other party just fought back subconsciously, and as a result, the stone sculpture of the monster was shattered.
Afterwards, the stone sculpture of a monster in the fusion stage attacked, but the middle-aged male cultivator did not fight back and just ran away.
Three days passed in a flash.
With the help of elixirs, Nangong Chenyu's injuries have almost recovered. He was no longer a charcoal-like figure, and his appearance became handsome again.
After taking a look at the surroundings, Nangong Chenyu asked Ye Yisheng: "Where are we now?"
"We have passed Yunqi City. In another hour we will reach Minghua City where we separated from the two seniors from Taihua Sect."
After a pause, Ye Yisheng continued, "Since you are awake, let's go to Minghua City to inquire about your grandfather's news."
Nangong Chenyu nodded: "Okay."
Minghua City.
Walking on the busy street, the two soon saw the sign of Lingyue Pavilion.
When they entered Lingyue Pavilion, they saw an old man with a white beard sitting on a chair with his eyes closed.
Before the two could speak, the old man opened his eyes. His eyes fell on the two of them at the first moment: "What do you two want to talk about?"
Ye Yisheng got straight to the point and said, "We want to know the news about Ye Chenyuan, the head of the Ye family in Qiyucheng, in the past month."
The old man offered the price without hesitation: "One hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones."
Ye Yishen immediately took out 100,000 low-grade spirit stones.
After getting the spirit stone, the old man began to drive people away: "Come back in an hour."
"We'll just wait here."
Nangong Chenyu found a chair and sat down. Qi Yucheng also has Lingyue Pavilion. Once the two sides communicated, it would take less than half a minute to find out.
The old man turned and went upstairs.
There were dozens of sound-transmitting jade slips placed in one of the rooms on the second floor. The old man picked up the sound-transmitting jade slip with Qi Yucheng's name on it.
Less than half a minute later, the old man came down from the second floor. Without waiting for the two to ask, he said, "Ye Chenyuan has been in seclusion for more than three months."
Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen looked at each other and it seemed that they needed to go to the Ye family. After saying goodbye to the old man, the two of them headed to Qi Yu City.
