“It hurts, meow!”

Miwa Yashi cried out in pain. She thought she was prepared and that with the power of the Thunder Spirit Tail, she could easily withstand the lightning.

The tabby cat has conducted experiments with the help of Uchiha Yu. No matter how strong the lightning summoned by the magic is, it cannot do anything to the Thunder Spirit Tail and will only serve as energy supply for the tabby cat.

So, Sanlun Yashi sat upright on the reef, gazing proudly at the thundercloud, but before the lightning fell, he suddenly lay prone on the reef, with his two tails pressed tightly against his belly, and only Lei Ling's tail stood up high, like a lightning rod.

As expected, the Thunder Spirit's tail successfully attracted the lightning, and a huge amount of natural energy poured into the body within the dazzling lightning.

Thanks to the characteristics of the Thunder Spirit Tail, what Miwa Masaya felt was not the burning, pain and tearing of lightning, but the comfort after a full meal, just like swallowing a mixture of sugar and oil, a satisfaction that came from his genes.

She smiled and praised: "Meow, it's delicious."

Uchiha You, who was secretly watching on the island, laughed. He finally understood the purpose of Miwa Masayo asking him to attract lightning and practice the Thunder Tail.

He smiled and said, "Lihua-chan, you little fool, the lightning I summoned is a simulation of nature, how can it be compared with the lightning of thunder tribulation?"

"Poor little cutie, it's going to be a pain."

"But the thunder tribulation is not entirely a bad thing. If you don't take a few dozen of them and are baptized by the power of the heaven and earth, how can you quickly shed your original form and achieve the ability to transform?"

"Unlike the transformation of Longdidong, which is a combination of transformation and illusion, the transformation of Xiandao is not a simple transformation, but a combination of two life mentalities, and the ability to switch between the two freely."

"After the catastrophe of transformation, Lihua-chan is no longer a cat, but a fairy of a higher life level, standing at the same height as me and the Sage of Six Paths."

"How can such a crucial promotion not come at a price?"

"Otsutsuki Kaguya, as a slave, used the power of weakness to overthrow the superior, desperately killed Otsutsuki Isshiki, and monopolized the fruit of the sacred tree, thus being promoted."

"Otsutsuki Hagoromo also worked hard to overthrow his mother, took control of the entire sacred tree, dismantled the Ten-Tails, and spread chakra in exchange for faith. It took hundreds of years to brew before he was promoted."

Uchiha You showed a trace of fear in his eyes: "What about me? As a pioneer of the immortal way, I have experienced two thunder tribulations and three tribulations of heaven, earth and man, and they are no less powerful."

"I also shed several layers of skin, and my whole body turned into charcoal and grew again, and only then did I condense the golden elixir and leap to a higher level of life."

"Lihua-chan, at this critical moment of life's level leap, all the little tricks will not affect the overall situation."

"You will soon realize that everything still depends on your own foundation and strength."

When Uchiha You helped her with the test, he summoned lightning one by one. Even the highest stress test was only 12 lightning bolts per second.

This was the data that Miwa Masayo memorized two years ago when he was on this reef and on the top of the mountain watching Uchiha Yuu resist the thunder calamity.

Miwa Masayo's Thunder Spirit Tail was indeed effective, but she overlooked a problem.

That is, the heaven and earth themselves are not eternal and unchanging.

The power of the thunder and lightning calamity of heaven and earth depends on the ninja world itself. After Uchiha Yu's successful promotion, the ninja world underwent unknown but huge changes.

After Uchiha You was promoted, he created two avatars of gods and used the power of faith to sort out the natural energy he absorbed. All he needed was a small portion of the purest natural energy that was marked with his own imprint.

But the natural energy that he discarded like trash is extremely precious to the nature of the ninja world, and is enough to enhance the order between heaven and earth to a higher level.

In other words, while Uchiha You was benefiting himself, he was also restoring order to the world.

The enhancement of order makes the power of the ninja world more orderly and able to exert greater power.

The power of heaven and earth will first be reflected in the heavenly tribulation.

Now, Sanlun Yashio is very lucky to have fallen into the pit dug by his owner.

The density of thunder and lightning soon exceeded 12 per second, and after breaking this limit, it reached 36 per second in almost the blink of an eye.

Miwa Masayoshi's Thunder Spirit Tail was also very powerful and he swallowed most of it. The remaining dozen or so lightning bolts that hit his body were absorbed by the Thunder Spirit Tail before they could cause any damage.

The tabby cat was not injured, but a huge amount of electric charge accumulated on her fur. Every hair stood straight up, and her fur was fluffy, making her look three times fatter.

Miwa Masayo looked at his hair that was swirling with lightning, his face full of disbelief: "It shouldn't be like this, meow, how can it be so strong, meow?"

A trace of natural energy passed through the lightning and landed on the body of the tabby cat without causing any change in the heavenly tribulation.

Uchiha You's voice, with the help of natural energy, reached Miwa Masayo's heart.

[Lihua-chan, why did you want to hide away alone to overcome the calamity? ]

[Meow, you finally found meow... I wanted to give You a surprise meow. ]

[What surprise? I'm worried that the result of my transformation might not be ideal, and I don't want you to see me looking ugly.]

[Damn it, meow, how did You know that? 】

[You haven't hidden anything from me in the past, have you? ]

[Stupid Lihuajiang, in your heart, am I the kind of person who would dislike you just because you are not good-looking? ]

[Hmph, don't try to fool me, meow! You said it yourself, meow, you are a complete face-lover, a bastard whose values ​​are determined by his facial features, meow! ]

[I remember the first time you came to the cat castle, you looked down on Tianno and the others. They were also very healthy cow cats, but because of a few black tufts of hair that were in the wrong place, you looked down on them and they cried, meow.]

[Tsk, it's been more than five years, how come you still remember it? ]

[That wasn't our first meeting. I didn't know the character of the cat that first time, so of course I could only look at its fur and appearance. You can't blame me for that.]

[Besides, it's Tian No, right? He only has a small tuft of black hair on his head and under his nose. That image is really too weird.]

【Meow?】

[Ah, anyway, you and I have been together for five years, and we have even confirmed our relationship as Taoist companions. Even if you are ugly in your transformed form, I will not despise you.]

[How can the relationship and feelings between us be affected by our appearance? ]

[Really? ]

[Of course it’s true! ]

[Besides, Lihua-chan, you underestimate Sendoh too much. ]

[The immortal way values ​​life, so all the pursuits of the immortal way are in accordance with the rules, and the appearance of the rules must be beautiful. 】

[As long as Lihua Jiang can successfully survive the transformation, the only difference between your appearance is that you are too beautiful to be human, or you are so beautiful that you look like a fairy.]

[Really? I believe it!]

[Really, you have to trust your partner! ]

[Take the tribulation seriously, carefully control the changes in your body, and don't make any mistakes. ]

[I know, meow, don't talk, meow, I need to concentrate. ]

【well.】

The thunder and lightning became more and more dense, and finally, the thin branches could no longer be distinguished, and they completely merged into a pillar of lightning so thick that only a human could hold it.

The power of the heavenly calamity was so exaggerated that even Uchiha You did not expect it. He could not help but take a half step back.

He was not afraid of being affected, but was worried that it would affect Sanlun Yashi's tribulation-crossing effect.

You know, the natural energy line between him and Miwa Masayo was maintained well by him. It was neither destroyed by lightning nor conflicted with lightning.

Now Uchiha You is able to attach his lightning immunity to the lines of natural energy, and can even move freely in lightning.

Following the line of natural energy, he could hear the tabby cat's thoughts clearly.

Miwa Masayo was having a hard time. The power of the heavenly calamity exceeded her expectations, and she was beaten very hard, but she could still barely hold on.

But when the thunderbolts merged into a lightning pillar, the tabby cat could no longer bear it. The power of lightning invaded its body, and the kitten meowed in pain.

At this moment, the function of the Thunder Spirit's tail, which was originally the strongest defense, was reversed. Because its bearing capacity exceeded the limit, this tail instead became the largest entrance for thunder to penetrate the body.

The lightning poured in from the base of the tail, first sweeping through Sanlun Yashi's meridians, almost destroying the natural energy stored by the tabby cat.

Then the lightning struck the nerves, causing constant, severe pain that would never numb the nerves.

Afterwards, the lightning also attacked the muscles and internal organs. The impact of the electric current caused the protein to deteriorate. Miwa Masayo felt that his body was emitting an alluring fragrance.

Finally, the lightning shattered her bones, not only her limbs and ribs, but even her skull and spine, all of which were shattered beyond recognition.

At this point, Miwa Masayo finally felt scared, and she began to be grateful that her owner came and stayed with her.

Although the tabby cat's body was out of control and she couldn't make any sound, she had a natural energy connection with Uchiha You, and could transmit her thoughts to him.

Miwa Masayo's pitiful request for help:

[You, help me, my bones are all broken.]

Uchiha Yu's unpleasant reply came immediately:

[What are you saving? Lihuajiang, you little stupid cat, you are going through a tribulation now. ]

[I have already felt the vigorous vitality in the thunder. You are about to usher in the most critical transformation. Hold on! ]

[Really? You didn't lie to me?]

Miwa Masayo's voice started to sob:

[My bones are all broken, and my whole body smells like burning. Is this really okay?]

【Don't worry, it's really okay. 】

Uchiha You tried hard to cheer up the raccoon cat.

[Lihuajiang, don't you realize that even though you're in a lot of pain, you don't have a sense of imminent death? ]

[Meow? Really? I'll be patient for a while.]

【Come on, Lihua-chan. 】

[According to my estimation, you still have two levels to go. ]

[Meow? You, please explain clearly. I’m scared of meow!]

[Your meridians are only broken, your flesh is crumbling, and your bones are shattered, but I think the true transformation requires the breaking of genes, and then regeneration from the cells little by little, and only after you obtain a brand new body can it be considered complete.]

[Meow! Yuu, the lightning you said is coming, meow, you should have told me earlier, meow!]

At some point, the thunderclouds in the sky turned into a spiral shape, and a bolt of lightning with a purple halo shot out from the center of the thundercloud and accurately struck the tabby cat lying on the reef.

The purple lightning that could connect from the clouds to the reefs was loud and powerful, but it instantly disappeared into the body of the tabby cat. There was no dazzling flash of lightning, no deafening thunder.

Even the limp Miwa Masayo only trembled slightly and then there was no reaction at all.

But in the connection of natural energy, Miwa Masayo's screams resounded through Uchiha You's heart.

[It hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much, meow, I’m going to die, meow! ]

[Don't talk nonsense, you won't die, your vitality will explode. ]

[Meow meow meow, I'm itchy again, it hurts and itches meow, it's more uncomfortable than death meow. ]

[You, is there any way to help me? 】

[How can I help you at this critical moment? Come on, Lihuajiang, grit your teeth and get through this! ]

Uchiha You really didn't dare to interfere now. The bird that was pulled out of the shell would definitely die, and the insects that were in the process of hatching could not be touched at all.

And Miwa Masayo is now at the critical moment of her ascension to heaven. Uchiha Yu has already sensed the changes taking place in Miwa Masayo's body.

At this time, the overall shape of the tabby cat has completely disappeared, just like a bag of cat skin wrapped in a ball of thick mucus, and it also looks like a slime with tabby cat fur.

The change first occurred on the soft and plum-shaped front paws. The shaky claws suddenly fell off, the white fur cracked and faded to the sides, and a pair of slender hands emerged from the cracks.

The slender hand was followed by the arm, then the upper arm, and the round, white shoulder was also revealed.

The originally limp cat's head filled up again and quickly expanded to the size of a human head. Then the midline of the cat's head cracked and a white and tender head emerged.

Although he had no hair or eyebrows, his eyes were closed, his lips were pale, and his skin was slightly wrinkled, but that young face still had a stunning color.

In his heart, Miwa Masayo has become completely silent.

Uchiha You could feel that the spirit of the raccoon cat had entered a wonderful state, merging with the world of lightning and thunder. This might be the so-called enlightenment.

Although Uchiha You had experienced enlightenment more than once and even had lucid dreams, this was his first time to see an enlightened person from the outside. He also gained a lot from feeling the wonderful rhythm around Miwa Masayo who was in the process of enlightenment.

Uchiha You murmured: "The process of life advancement is so wonderful. It's great to be able to see it."

"The most amazing thing is that although Lihuajiang's body only has arms, shoulders, neck and head, it is several times larger than the cat's body in the past. Where does all this material come from?"

“It’s amazing.”

The process of metamorphosis is still going on. After the cat's head splits open, the flat chest below the neck, the belly with obvious waistline, the straight and curved thighs, the calves as slender as a deer, and finally a pair of charming white and tender feet are lifted up calmly and gracefully from the shriveled cat skin.

A white loli slowly rose from the cat's body and floated in the air as if unaffected by gravity.

Lightning surrounded her, but it could no longer touch her fair skin directly. Instead, it evaporated the little mucus on her body.

The cat skin under Loli's feet was not so lucky. The moment she got out, it turned into ashes in the dense thunder and lightning and dissipated with the wind.

In fact, the thunder no longer has the same power as before, the density of lightning is decreasing rapidly, and its power is declining severely.

I don't know when, hair, eyebrows and eyelashes grew on the white loli's head, especially the hair that was black and shiny, and the growth speed was extremely exaggerated, almost as fast as Jiraiya's ninjutsu.

In the blink of an eye, the black hair fell from the top of the head to the calves. The smooth and shiny black hair, like a piece of soft silk, was draped over the white loli's body, covering up everything that should not be seen.

Miwa Masayo, it turns out that she is a loli with long black straight hair.

Just as her hair finished growing and fluttered slightly in the wind, Loli's eyes trembled, and her eyelashes, like small fans, slowly lifted up, revealing a pair of blue pupils with shining starlight.

Uchiha You saw these eyes through the lightning. They were the starry eyes that Miwa Masaya suddenly possessed after his first breakthrough.

He smiled brilliantly: "You have successfully passed the transformation thunder tribulation. Congratulations to fellow Daoist Sanlun Yashi for ascending to heaven!"

Miwa Masayo seemed a little confused. She blinked and looked at Uchiha You for a long time before she suddenly remembered who he was.

The little girl's eyes curved, and the corners of her mouth curled up as she smiled happily: "You, long time no see, meow."

Uchiha You said with a little surprise: "Long time no see? It seems that the enlightenment just now took a long time for Lihua-chan."

The little loli floated over skillfully without touching the ground, and threw herself into Uchiha You's arms.

She took a few deep breaths and said with emotion: "This is the smell, meow. I haven't smelled it for a long time. I really miss it, meow."

Uchiha You asked, "Rika-chan, how long have you been in the dream?"

Miwa Masayo replied in a muffled voice: "Ten years, meow. I spent ten years in a dream. When I realized it was a dream, I woke up."

"This dream was so real, I could remember every minute of the past ten years, every event, every person and cat I met."

"I just saw You, and I can't even remember what you look like. I have to use the smell to confirm it's you."

Uchiha You nodded: "So it was a lucid dream, Lihua-chan is lucky, it seems that the harvest should be quite a lot."

Miwa Masayo hummed, "I learned how to use chopsticks, dress myself, and take a bath. I also learned how to cook, but it's not as delicious as Yuu's."

Uchiha You: "..."

Miwa Masayo talked incessantly for a long time, basically all about the life skills she had learned, even if it was just threading a needle and mending clothes, she could happily talk about it for half a day.

Finally, Uchiha You asked about her strength, and she said, "I learned to float and fly, as well as the transformation technique."

"It's not a ninjutsu transformation technique, but an actual physical transformation, nyan."

Miwa Masayo suddenly became excited, and excitedly left Uchiha Yu's arms, jumping up and down and talking about how great she was.

She raised three fingers of her right hand and said, "I can now change between three forms: human, half-human, and cat."

"When I'm human, I'm the strongest in fairy arts. When I'm half-human, I'm the strongest in physical arts. But when I'm a cat, I'm the strongest, meow."

"Yuu, let me show you, meow."
