Chapter 460: Snow on the Mountain, Bright Candles in the South 20

Boom——

Thunder roared, and lightning as thick as a bucket instantly pierced through the sky and the earth.

All the people in Chengtian Sect stopped what they were doing and looked over here.

The sky and the earth were dim, only the snow on the top of the Qinglan Mountain was as bright as a mirror.

Under the impact of such strong light and spiritual energy, the system space of 205 was affected, and it was filled with crackling sounds of electric current.

It was so scared that it huddled in a corner and dared not move, lest it accidentally short-circuit the electricity.

[Host, come on! You must make it through this, or we will both die!!!]

Although it knew Mingnan's identity, it didn't know how she died in her previous life, or how she drifted to that world in a daze, so it was very worried that Mingnan died in this thunder tribulation in her previous life.

But it obviously still underestimated Mingnan.

"Cry——"

Chongming let out a long cry and soared into the sky, colliding head-on with the first bolt of lightning that fell without warning.

The powerful force collided and made Mingnan's clothes rustle.

She flew up from the yard, waved her hand, and the longbow and the blazing arrow shot straight into the sky.

"Bang--"

Another thunderbolt.

There are nine thunders of tribulation in total, each one stronger than the last. The first two are relatively easy, but from the third onwards, the intensity increases significantly.

When it came to the last one, the thunderbolt split the sky like a sharp blade and struck down on his head.

That powerful force is daunting.

Those with lower cultivation bases couldn't help but feel like crawling on the ground in front of this intensity of thunder. Their legs became weak and cold sweat covered their backs.

He Yunfei gritted his teeth and thrust his sword into the ground with his backhand to hold it in place.

She was so shocked that she couldn't speak. She murmured, "The thunderbolts in the Realm of Enlightenment are so strong. How terrifying will it be when I reach the Ascension Realm?"

Yuan You exhaled a long breath of hot air and said in a deep voice: "So there are only a few people in the entire cultivation world who can break through the Ascension Realm. Talent and hard work may be able to send people to the Enlightenment Realm, but to go further, you need more than just these."

"A firm mind, indomitable courage, and an unshakable heart of the Tao are what one really needs to cultivate to reach the state of enlightenment. Otherwise, if one has the ability to cultivate but no courage, when facing the thunderbolt, one may not be able to withstand more than three strikes before giving in to fear."

"What will happen if I'm afraid?" He Yunfei asked subconsciously.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Ying glanced at them and said sternly, "Do you think the thunderbolt is just a test of your spiritual power? No, it is really a test of your Dao heart. If you hesitate in front of the thunderbolt and show flaws, you will be in danger of death. Even if you are lucky enough to survive, you will develop a demon in your heart and your path to becoming an immortal will come to an end."

"Today is a good opportunity for you to see that there is a preparation, so that when you are going to overcome the tribulation in the future, you will know what to do."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly erupted from the top of the mountain.

Dense electric lights instantly engulfed Mingnan's thin figure.

They tried their best to open their eyes wide, but could not catch a single glimpse.

He Yunfei's heart instantly rose to his throat.

Yuan You subconsciously took a step forward, but was stopped by Yuan Ying.

Both he and the clan leader looked very solemn.

No one said anything, just stared at the center of the lightning.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths——

There was no reaction from the mountain tops.

Yuan Ying's pupils trembled violently.

Could it be that——

Before he could finish the thought, the cry of a phoenix suddenly rang out from the top of the mountain, loud and proud.

A flaming whip suddenly swept across, flashing with lightning and tearing a hole in the wound.

Then, a slender figure straightened up slowly and firmly.

Yuan Ying and the others’ eyes widened instantly.

Mingnan took a deep breath and used his spiritual power to open his palm. Immediately, bright red blood flowed down the long whip.

Wherever he passed, there was bright light.

She gripped the whip handle tightly, turned around, and whipped hard at the lightning that had not yet dissipated, shouting: "Break!"

The silhouette of the double-headed bird flapped its wings behind her and flew away resolutely along with the whip.

"Bang——"

Sand and rocks flew, the earth shook and the mountains trembled. Wherever the whip passed, even the space was torn apart, making a sharp sound that stung people's ears and made their eyes go black.

The thunder was cut off by the waist, and the tremendous power suddenly dissipated, turning into star-like lights and sinking into Mingnan's body.

Mingnan couldn't hold on any longer and fell to his knees.

She simply turned over and lay down.

Her face was pale, and her entire body had been struck by lightning, leaving not a single piece of healthy flesh. Her clothes had turned into tattered strips that could barely cover her body.

Blood dripped from the wound and merged into the soil, nourishing colorful flowers.

Some of the wounds were so deep that you could vaguely see the bones underneath.

205 I felt so sorry for her, but she seemed to feel nothing and just smiled happily.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

205: [It’s over. Could it be that the child has become stupid? ]

205: [I was not smart in the first place, what can I do in the future? ]

205: [Host, host! ]

“I succeeded.”

Mingnan laughed until the wound hurt, and he started gasping for breath with a grimace.

Smoking and laughing.

“Hiss—hahahaha—hiss—hahahaha—”

205: [……]

205: [It’s over, it’s scarier than being stupid, I’ve gone crazy! ]

205: [What should I do? ]

The heavy calamity clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, and a thousand-foot-long golden light pierced through the clouds and landed on Mingnan.

It made her eyes sparkle.

The thunder turned into broken stars and fell on the wound, and the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After absorbing the last bit of strength, Mingnan's whole body recovered. Except for his clothes which were still torn, there was not even a scar left.

Mingnan turned over and sat up, feeling that his whole body was filled with strength.

There is a sense of newfound lightness.

Every blade of grass, every flower and every leaf around her is within her perception.

The world became extremely clear in her eyes, and even an inexplicable connection was created.

“Is this the state of enlightenment?”

She looked down at her hands, thoughtfully.

205 heaved a sigh of relief, [Fortunately, fortunately, I am not crazy. ]

"Nannan——"

"Junior sister!"

The calls came one after another. Mingnan turned around and saw He Yunfei and Yuan You walking towards him one after another.

Seeing that she was sitting there quietly, He Yunfei ran away immediately.

I haven't seen them for three years, but they don't seem to have changed much.

Ming Nan suddenly felt friendly, and immediately got up, opened his arms and said, "Senior Sister."

He Yunfei ran over and hugged her, trembling and said, "I'm so glad you're okay!"

Mingnan was about to say something when he looked up and met Yuan Ying's gaze.

He and the clan leader came from the end of the mountain road. He looked her up and down, smiled for once, and said with satisfaction, "These three years have not been wasted."

"Then we must not embarrass our Master."

Ming Nan let go of He Yunfei, clenched his fist and said proudly: "Now I feel like I can fight ten!"

"I think you look like ten." He Yunfei pinched her face and pulled it, gritting his teeth and said, "You shut yourself up for three years without saying a word. You are really something."

"Hey, hey, hey, senior sister, I just survived the calamity, can you be a little gentler to me?"

"No." He Yunfei couldn't help laughing, "Tell me the truth, what happened to that bird?"
