The flying sword from before had turned to dust, but the tribulation clouds grew stronger with each strike. She couldn't afford to lose her mobility again; she needed to at least give herself a chance to absorb the lightning, so she wouldn't just passively take the blows like a fool.
The white lightning struck, turning all those items into dust. By the time it reached Xiang Wan, less than a tenth of what it had been.
"Hmm, barely within acceptable limits." Xiang Wan thought to herself, then quickly took out a few more items and fixed them all around with ice spikes, leaving only a thin ice thread connecting her wrist. "Drawing lightning into my body to help me refine my spiritual energy should be a good option."
Seeing this, Zi Yi waved her hand again, removing the barrier ten meters around Xiang Wan.
Xiang Wan sat in the cage she had woven herself, thickening the surrounding ice pillars again and again, looking up at the tribulation clouds with a ghostly light in her eyes.
The tribulation clouds surged for a while, then a small cloud separated to the side, while the rest piled up in layers, seemingly preparing to unleash a powerful attack.
Xiang Wan waited and waited, until the baby absorbed all the lightning and expelled some purplish-black impurities, but the tribulation clouds still did not move.
Not far away, a bolt of lightning as thin as an embroidery needle struck down, and the little cloud dream beast screamed hysterically.
Xiang Wan's lips twitched. She suspected that Jie Yun was doing it on purpose; the differential treatment was too obvious!
Her clothes were charred black, but Xiang Wan didn't care anymore. A spear as thick as her arm materialized in her palm. She took a step back towards the tribulation cloud, gathering all her spiritual power into her arm. With a loud shout, the icy spear, flashing with cold light, flew towards the tribulation cloud.
"Boom!"
Perhaps the tribulation cloud had never encountered someone as unreasonable as Xiang Wan, who not only refused to be struck but also dared to provoke it! So it simply gathered all the black clouds together, condensing them into an incredibly thick charged body, and struck down with lightning that had a cross-section of about half an acre in size.
Xiang Wan smiled, realizing that Jie Yun indeed had a temper.
She stood there waiting, even raising her finger towards the calamity cloud.
Upon seeing this, Zi Yi's brow twitched.
He wasn't worried about Xiang Wan being struck by lightning, but rather that Sui Xushan's protective barrier might not be able to withstand such a powerful lightning bolt.
In an instant, he made a decision to remove all the restrictions within a ten-mile radius of Xiang Wan.
As Xiang Wan watched the lightning strike, she silently calculated the time. Just as she was about to be struck, the ice beneath her feet slipped, and she was instantly transported dozens of feet to the side.
At the same time, the path beneath Xiang Wan's feet vanished, leaving a deep, gaping pit below.
As the lightning struck, it seemed as if some enormous, unidentified beast, about to rise, was struck, billowing black smoke and roaring through the sky.
