Chapter 145: The Provocation of the Shangqing Xuanzong (Four Thousand)
The noise made by Lai Yang's tribulation was so loud that it was impossible to even hide it.
The people of Wenxian Sect were so frightened that they ended their training one after another. Looking at the thunderbolt in the sky, they couldn't help but feel terrified. Their instinct for danger forced them to flee from this dangerous place as far as possible.
The lightning contained a hint of purple and carried an unparalleled destructive power. Even an ordinary Tribulation Realm expert would probably die on the spot if hit by it.
Under normal circumstances, the higher the talent of the person undergoing the tribulation, the stronger the thunder tribulation that befalls him.
But no matter what, the thunder tribulation will always leave people with a glimmer of hope.
Because thunder and lightning represent destruction, they also represent rebirth.
However, this purple thunder did not give people any sense of life at all, only destruction, pure destructive power.
In the past three thousand years, he had never seen anyone experience such a situation when enduring a thunder tribulation.
Maybe Lai Yang violated the heavenly law or something, Lei Jie disliked him so much and wanted to kill him.
Lai Yang opened his eyes and looked towards the roaring calamity clouds in the sky. Countless thunders intertwined and tore the sky and earth apart, like a horrifying scene of the coming of doomsday.
Lai Yang's heart sank slightly. Why did the color of that thunder tribulation look a bit like the purple divine thunder in mythology?
The Purple Sky Divine Thunder was created by the Heavenly Dao. It has seventy-two levels and is said to be able to destroy gods and kill immortals.
He was just going through a seventh level of spiritual thunder tribulation, there was no need to make it so outrageous.
Even though Lai Yang's body could absorb the energy of the heavenly thunder and sense the power of the purple thunder, he still couldn't help feeling nervous and heavy in his heart.
He suddenly felt a little regretful. Why was he so anxious to break through the seventh realm? At least he had to wait until his physical body broke through the immortal realm.
Every time a thunder tribulation came, it was always at a higher level than his own, and he had to rely on his physical body to withstand it.
This time, the thunder tribulation made Lai Yang feel the same fear and trepidation as the first time he went through the tribulation. It looked extremely dangerous.
But now that things have come to this, there is no point in regretting, and I can only go ahead with it.
Lai Yang's figure appeared on the top of the mountain. He looked up at the sky, and the aura of the first level of the Tribulation Realm burst out.
"Come on, chop me! Let me see if you can chop me to death!"
Swish!!!
A bolt of lightning struck from the sky, so fast that no one could react, and engulfed Lai Yang who was standing on the top of the mountain.
Lai Yang's defensive spiritual weapons were instantly destroyed. He felt a strong numbness and burning sensation all over his body. It hurt! It hurt so much!! It hurt deep into his bones!!!
Lai Yang felt as if he was about to lose consciousness.
However, at this critical moment, Lai Yang's body burst out with a majestic and vast vitality, frantically repairing the body that was damaged by the thunder.
The power of purple thunder penetrated into Lai Yang's body and wreaked havoc at an extremely fast speed.
At the same time, the heavenly thunder in Lai Yang's body was also stimulated and came out to fight against it fiercely. At the same time, every cell in Lai Yang seemed to be fully activated, consuming the power of the thunder tribulation while repairing his damaged body at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, Lai Yang's body had just been repaired when it was immediately destroyed by the power of thunder and lightning, and was constantly destroyed and reorganized in the confrontation between the three forces.
Lai Yang felt as if he was in a purgatory where his body was shattered into pieces, suffering endless pain and torture.
The moment the thunderbolt struck him, he thought he was going to die, but unexpectedly he managed to survive.
He seemed to have underestimated the strength of his body and soul.
After an extreme pull, Lai Yang's body actually adapted to the power of the purple thunder, and once again began to actively integrate and absorb the thunder energy that escaped from his limbs and bones. The whole process seemed extremely long, but in fact, only a moment had passed in the outside world.
At the same time, Lan Qingxian and many elders of the Wenxian Sect were looking at the situation at the center of the thunder tribulation from afar.
Seeing the extremely terrifying thunderbolt striking Lai Yang directly, everyone's faces revealed a look of regret and sympathy.
No one was optimistic about him, because that power was enough to instantly destroy a peak Tribulation Realm being.
Although Lai Yang's body is strong, his spiritual power realm has just broken through the seventh realm, and his soul is not strong enough. How can he withstand such a terrifying thunder tribulation?
"I thought our Wenxian Sect had produced another sword immortal, but I didn't expect that the heavens would be jealous of his talent. Because of his great talent, he was directly killed by the heavens. What a pity."
"Don't jump to conclusions yet. His aura hasn't disappeared yet."
"How can anyone survive a thunderstorm of that magnitude? Such a big commotion will probably attract many people's attention. We must prepare early."
"Humph, I want to see who dares to come to my Xianzong and act wild and presumptuous."
At this moment, everyone from the Wenxian Sect sensed that Lai Yang's extremely weak breath suddenly seemed to become stronger.
Everyone couldn't help but be surprised.
"He, he really managed to pull through?! How is this possible?"
"This is only the first thunder tribulation. I think this thunder tribulation is far more complicated than this. It's not over yet."
Just as the other party expected, the power of the first thunder tribulation had not yet completely dissipated, and the second thunder tribulation, which was several times more powerful, suddenly fell and struck hard at the place where Lai Yang was standing.
Boom!!!
The violent thunder formed a thunder egg that tightly wrapped Lai Yang inside, and the overbearing destructive force ruthlessly destroyed everything.
However, after Lai Yang's body mastered the heavenly thunder, he already had a strong resistance to it.
Now it has absorbed even more powerful purple thunder power and has been further enhanced.
The first purple thunderbolt failed to kill him successfully, and the following ones became more difficult.
And those who fail to kill him will make his body and soul become more powerful and terrifying.
Lai Yang's body greedily absorbed the energy of the thunder tribulation, and his soul was tempered by the heavenly thunder.
If he opened the system panel at this moment, he would find that his body and soul were steadily moving towards a new realm.
After a while, the third thunder strike came.
The fourth thunderbolt fell.
The fifth...
The sixth course…
The seventh...
The eighth...
The ninth one!
Nine thunder tribulations descended, and the space of heaven and earth collapsed, as if it had reached the limit of what the plane of the Wenxian Continent could bear.
However, even so, the figure at the center of the thunder tribulation could not be completely killed.
Above the sky, calamity clouds roared, and countless lightning bolts leaped, intertwined and collided, as if expressing anger and dissatisfaction.
The next thunder tribulation had been brewing for a long time, causing countless people to shudder with fear.
Even Lan Qingxian and others were no longer calm.
“Fuck, what kind of monster is this guy? Each lightning tribulation is stronger than the last. The entire space has been shattered by the lightning tribulation, but he is still alive?!”
"If this continues, the entire Zhongzhou continent will be destroyed."
"What else can you do? Go up and try to stop one of them?"
The person who was speaking was suddenly choked and looked embarrassed.
Are you kidding? Go up and stop him. He hasn’t lived enough yet.
Once other living beings enter the range of the thunder tribulation, they will be affected.
Not to mention the ninth thunder tribulation, even the first one would be too hard for him to withstand.
He was just talking nonsense, he wouldn't do anything stupid to get himself killed.
At this moment, everyone was staring nervously at the calamity clouds in the sky.
Nine thunder disasters have struck, and the Zhongzhou continent has become riddled with holes.
If this tenth thunder tribulation continues to fall, they will probably have to move out of Zhongzhou immediately.
If they were caught in the chaotic space turbulence, they would not be enough to die even if they had a hundred lives.
In the end, the brewing thunderstorm did not come, and the thunder clouds began to slowly dissipate.
"it's over."
Seeing this, everyone who was extremely nervous suddenly felt relieved.
The next moment, they looked towards the center of the thunder tribulation again, and felt Lai Yang's tenacious vitality. They couldn't help but reveal a shocked expression and whispered, "Monster."
Although the thunder tribulation had dissipated, everyone still did not dare to approach Lai Yang.
Even the remaining power of heavenly thunder is enough to easily wipe them out.
Lan Qingxian suddenly said, "Seal off this place. No one is allowed to get close. Anyone who trespasses will be killed!"
"Yes." The elders of the Xianzong replied in a deep voice with a serious look on their faces.
They understood that although the thunder tribulation was over, their sect might face attacks from various major immortal sects next.
Some may even demand that Lai Yang be handed over.
The commotion he caused was too huge, and his talent was too terrifying.
If the other immortal sects knew about this, they would probably be so worried that they couldn't sleep well.
Fortunately, he is a member of their Wenxian Sect, otherwise their Wenxian Sect would have to take action as well.
Lan Qingxian's gaze pierced through the void and looked into the distance, a hint of coldness appearing on her beautiful face.
"They can't sit still so soon. These guys are more anxious than I thought."
"Master Zhan, I'll leave this to you. I'll go meet them."
An ordinary-looking old man slowly walked out of the void, nodded calmly and said, "Leave this to me. I won't let anyone disturb this little fellow."
On the other side, Lai Yang fell into a deep sleep, but his body was unusually active. Countless thunders surged and flashed around him, like a domain.
The energy of this thunder tribulation is too huge, and it will take time for him to fully absorb and refine it.
If he wanted to wake up, he could do so at any time, but stopping practicing now would waste a lot of benefits, and he didn't want to waste it.
In this way, Mr. Zhan stayed near Lai Yang and blocked off all prying eyes.
Lan Qingxian and others returned to the Wenxian Sect to deal with the powerful men from various major immortal sects who came to test them.
Before getting the exact information, they will not easily turn against the Wenxian Sect. At most, they will take some shady measures.
After all, the Wenxian Sect is no pushover. Even among all the upper immortal sects, the strength of the Wenxian Sect can be considered among the top.
Although the strength of the Wenxian Sect has weakened in recent years, as the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and no one wants to anger them easily, as the gain will not outweigh the loss.
"Master Lan, I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still as charming and elegant as ever." A man said with a smile.
"My fellow Taoists, why have you suddenly visited me in the Xian Sect?" Lan Qingxian didn't buy it and asked in a cold tone.
"Don't be so nervous. We have no ill intentions. We saw a thunderstorm coming here and were afraid that the Wenxian Sect would be in danger, so we came to help."
She glanced at the man with her beautiful blue eyes, and a hint of contempt arose in her heart.
Only a fool would believe what he said.
If they were really worried that the Wenxian Sect was in danger, why didn't they come when the thunder tribulation appeared? Why did they come only now that the thunder tribulation has disappeared? Their intention to help is fake, and their real intention is to find out the truth about the Wenxian Sect.
"There's no need for you to worry. Everything is fine in Wenxian Sect. If you have nothing else to do, please go back." Lan Qingxian coldly ordered them to leave.
"In that case, we'll leave first and visit you next time."
Seeing this, everyone stopped pestering and turned away.
There was a deep look in Lan Qingxian's eyes. She knew that they would never give up.
If they don't investigate thoroughly, the Wenxian Sect will have trouble living in peace from now on.
“From today on, everything in Wenxian Sect shall be carried out as usual. We shall secretly strengthen our guard to prevent any villains from sneaking into Wenxian Sect. Also, no one is allowed to disclose this matter. It concerns the rise and fall of Wenxian Sect. Don’t blame me for being ruthless.” Lan Qingxian said in a cold voice.
Everyone looked serious and nodded seriously, "Understood."
Not long after, Shangqing Xuanzong, also a supreme immortal sect, brought people to Wenxianzong.
The leader of the team is the leader of Shangqing Xuanzong - Xue Buqing. His realm is at the peak of the seventh realm, the same as Lan Qingxian.
Lan Qingxian knew that the visitor had ill intentions, but she couldn't drive them out for no reason. This would make the relationship too awkward and lose the dignity of the Wenxian Sect. So she asked someone to invite everyone from the Shangqing Xuan Sect to the main hall of the Wenxian Sect for a reception.
"Master Lan, I am sorry for being so rude to visit you today. It is inevitable that this may be a little abrupt. I hope you will forgive me."
"Fellow Daoist, you have brought your disciples to my Wenxian Sect. You don't seem to be here as a guest. Just speak directly. I don't like beating around the bush with others."
Hearing this, Xue Buqing was not angry, but smiled: "In this case, I will speak frankly. These disciples of mine are too arrogant. I want them to compete with the Wenxian Sect. I have brought ten direct disciples and twenty inner disciples. If you win, I am willing to give you ten high-grade spiritual weapons and twenty mid-grade spiritual weapons as rewards. What do you think?"
It is normal for disciples of different sects to compete with each other. If they easily refuse, it will be a loss of face for the sect.
As long as she agreed, he would have time to investigate what happened in the Wenxian Sect a few days ago.
Such a world-destroying thunder disaster would make people unable to sleep or eat unless the cause was found out.
Lan Qingxian saw through Xue Buqing's plan at a glance.
This is a blatant conspiracy.
If she didn't agree, people would think that their Wenxian Sect was afraid of Shangqing Xuanzong, which would damage their reputation.
What a sect cares most about is its reputation. If it loses its reputation, it will be not far from destruction.
"How do you want to compete?" Lan Qingxian said coldly.
"You and I will each send out ten direct disciples and twenty inner disciples to fight in a defensive ring. The side with the most victories will be deemed the winner. What do you think, fellow Daoist?" Xue Buqing looked at Lan Qingxian and said lightly.
"Okay, since you are so confident, I will accompany you to the end. If I lose, I will also give you ten high-grade spiritual weapons and twenty mid-grade spiritual weapons as rewards. Before that, I need some time to prepare."
"Of course, no problem. How about setting the date in three days?"
"Can."
