Chapter 1216 Qingyi's Thunder Tribulation
Luo Li regained her composure and said to Di Xuanming, "Qingyi is recovering very well. Her dragon scales are glowing and her breath is full. She should wake up soon."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanming smiled and said, "That's good. Dragon-type monsters are very strong, and this ordeal may be a test for them."
The two walked side by side through the corridor towards the study where they would handle their affairs. The morning light stretched their shadows, casting them on the smooth bluestone slabs.
"As for the Su family..." Di Xuanming pondered for a moment before speaking, "I plan to go there once my injuries are healed."
Thinking of what Bai Ze said, Di Xuanming frowned slightly: "But if those disciples of the Su family knew that you possessed the power of chaos and the chaos jade, would they..."
Luo Li's eyes were clear and her steps were steady. "What's coming will eventually come. Su Youming and the others are smart people. They know what to say and what not to say. Besides, even if they knew, it wouldn't matter."
Thinking of the connection between Di Xuanming and the Su family, Luo Li patted his hand and said, "When your injury heals, I'll go with you."
Emperor Xuanming narrowed his eyes and said, "Okay."
Luo Li and Di Xuanming walked into the study side by side. The sunlight filtered through the window lattice, casting mottled shadows on the pile of files.
"The backlog of matters is not too large. Shi Heng and several elders have almost dealt with it." Luo Li quickly flipped through several important briefings, and her tense nerves relaxed slightly.
Di Xuanming sat quietly beside her, his eyes focused and his aura calm. He was just there to accompany her, but invisibly made Luo Li feel at ease.
At this moment, in Luo Li's sea of consciousness, in the quiet room of the Tower of Gods, something strange happened!
Qingyi, who was originally just breathing steadily, suddenly opened his tightly closed dragon eyes.
Two emerald green rays of light shot out like substance, instantly illuminating the entire quiet room.
A huge and majestic dragon power erupted uncontrollably, like a sleeping ancient beast awakening, with a domineering power that came from its blood.
"roar--!"
A clear, passionate yet somewhat confused dragon roar penetrated the spatial barrier of the Tower of Gods and exploded directly in Luo Li's consciousness!
Luo Li frowned, "No way, Qingyi is about to enter her mature stage."
Emperor Xuanming was stunned. "Thunder tribulation?"
Luo Li looked at the dark clouds that began to gather over Buli City and immediately stood up, "Let's go outside the city!"
The thunder tribulation of a Saint King-level monster cannot happen in the city!
The two of them flashed and immediately arrived within a hundred miles of the city.
After Luo Li stood still, she immediately released the Wind Dragon Qingyi from the Tower of Gods.
The two men had just stood firm in an open wasteland not a hundred miles away from the city when the sky above their heads suddenly changed.
The originally clear morning sky was rapidly swallowed by the rolling dark clouds. The thick clouds hung low, as if within reach.
In the clouds, the dull thunder was like the roar of an ancient beast, coming from far away, getting louder and louder, shaking the earth slightly.
Silver-white electric snakes were running wildly in the inky clouds. Every flash illuminated the sky and earth in a pale white, brewing a heart-pounding breath of destruction.
A strong wind suddenly arose from the ground, blowing up sand and dust all over the sky and making a sharp whistling sound.
Qingyi, who was released from the Tower of Gods by Luo Li, had a huge dragon body that was entrenched in the center of the wasteland.
She seemed to have not yet fully awakened from her deep sleep, her dragon eyes half open, filled with the confusion of newly awakened and instinctive fear of the sudden pressure from heaven and earth.
However, the tremendous power surging in her body that was almost about to burst out, and the ancient throbbing coming from deep in her blood, were clearly telling her one fact.
Her thunder tribulation of maturity is coming!
"roar--!!!"
Another louder dragon roar resounded through the sky.
Qingyi raised her slender neck, and her emerald green dragon scales burst into dazzling brilliance in the dim sky, and every scale seemed to contain the power of a storm.
She forced herself to suppress her confusion, and an indomitable fighting spirit ignited in her dragon eyes as she stared intently at the calamity cloud that was brewing terrifying thunder.
The pride of the higher dragon race and their determination in facing the calamity were fully revealed at this moment.
"This tribulation cloud..." Emperor Xuanming stood beside Luo Li, gazing at the sky with solemn eyes. "It's quite powerful. A peak-level Saint Lord-level thunder tribulation, it's truly formidable."
Although his injuries had not healed, the aura around him had quietly condensed.
The figures of Bai Ze and Xuan Ye also tore through space and arrived almost at the same time, landing not far behind Luo Li.
Bai Ze looked at the faint cyan vortex emerging from the center of the tribulation cloud, a hint of understanding on his gentle face. "The thunder tribulation of a pure-blooded Great Desolate Demonic Beast is indeed different from ordinary ones. This thunder tribulation contains the ultimate power of the gale, multiplying its might. It is a double test for Qingyi's body and will."
Xuan Ye didn't say anything, but just took a step forward silently, the dark red aura faintly visible at his fingertips, his eyes locked on the stubborn emerald green under the calamity cloud.
Protecting Luo Li and the people around her seemed to have become his unspoken responsibility.
Luo Li's mind was highly concentrated, the power of chaos slowly flowed in her body, ready to deal with the worst situation at any time.
She believed in Qingyi's potential, but the power of this thunder tribulation was indeed beyond her expectations.
She sent a voice message to Qingyi: "Qingyi, calm your mind! The power of the dragon bloodline is your greatest support! Believe in yourself, and believe in us!"
Before he finished speaking, the first thunderbolt struck down!
"boom!"
That was not pure silver-white thunder, but a terrifying lightning column wrapped in countless green wind blades!
The wind blades whirled and sliced, emitting a piercing scream, tearing the air into black streaks. The lightning column aimed directly at Qingyi's raised head!
Luo Li clenched her fingers. There were only three thunder tribulations for a mature pure-blooded monster, but they were also the three most terrifying ones.
A fierce look flashed in Qingyi's eyes. Without dodging or evading, the huge dragon body suddenly soared into the air. The emerald green light around it surged, forming a solid wind element shield.
"Roar!" She bumped into him head-on!
A deafening explosion echoed throughout the field. Dazzling lightning and wind blades instantly engulfed Qingyi.
After the strong light, Qingyi's huge body was smashed to the ground, creating a huge deep pit and filled with smoke and dust.
Most of the wind shield on her body was shattered, leaving several charred marks and tiny cracks on the emerald green dragon scales. Dragon blood seeped out, dyeing the edges of the scales red.
However, she struggled to raise her head again, the fire in her dragon eyes burning even brighter, and she let out an unyielding roar.
She withstood the first thunder tribulation!
The residual power of the first thunderbolt had not yet completely dissipated, and the air was filled with the smell of burning and ionization.
At the edge of the deep pit that was smashed into the wasteland, the soil rolled up and wisps of green smoke rose.
Qingyi's huge emerald green dragon body trembled slightly, and dragon blood oozing from the edges of its charred scales dripped onto the scorching ground, making a slight "hissing" sound.
"Roar!" The low dragon roar was filled with pain, but also with the pride of never bowing down.
She struggled to stand up, and the damaged dragon scales began to repair themselves faster under the power surging in her body, and emerald green light flowed through the wounds.
But the calamity clouds in the sky did not give her much chance to breathe.
The low thunder seemed to come from the depths of the underworld. It was no longer a roar, but carried a kind of judgmental coldness.
In the center of the pitch-black vortex of the calamity cloud, countless silver-white lightning snakes gathered and compressed madly. What was even more terrifying was that the green vortex was no longer attached to the lightning pillar, but was completely integrated with the thunder itself!
With the naked eye, a "spear" made of pure destructive energy is slowly taking shape in the center of the vortex.
It is not a physical entity, but it is more frightening than any magical weapon.
The core of the spear is composed of the most violent silver thunder, and countless extremely condensed green wind blades are wrapped around it like spiral patterns, rotating at high speed and cutting through the space, making a teeth-grinding "buzzing" sound.
The tip of the spear was pointing at Qingyi who was standing below with her head held high and unyielding!
A terrifying pressure that locked onto the soul came crashing down, causing Luo Li and others who were watching the battle from a distance to feel a suffocating pressure.
"Wind and thunder merge, condensing into a weapon! This is the second ray, the Spear of Wind and Thunder Judgment!" Bai Ze's gentle voice took on a solemn tone for the first time. "This calamity is no longer a simple thunder or strong wind, but the ultimate test of the laws of heaven and earth for a powerful bloodline! Qingyi, you must give it your all!"
Luo Li transmitted her voice with a firm tone, "Qingyi! Don't resist! Use your wind! Use your speed! Avoid the vital points! Guide it!"
Qingyi felt the lock of the Spear of Destruction, and her dragon pupils stared at the increasingly solid thunder tribulation.
The inherited memories in the blood were surging wildly, and the instinct for survival collided violently with the pride of the dragon clan.
She heard Luo Li's voice transmission and also felt the terrifying aura of Di Xuanming and Xuan Ye ready to strike.
We can't retreat! The dignity of the dragon race cannot be trampled upon! We can't betray the trust of our benefactor!
"roar!!!"
In response to the calamity cloud, Qingyi heard the loudest dragon roar in her life.
She no longer squatted, her huge body suddenly straightened, her slender dragon neck raised to the sky, and her emerald green dragon scales burst into an unprecedented bright light.
The extremely rich wind element gathered around her madly, no longer forming a shield, but turning into countless high-speed rotating emerald green wind blades, forming a violent wind blade field around her body.
At that moment, the Spear of Wind and Thunder Judgment pierced down with the power to tear apart the heaven and earth!
Qingyi moved!
She didn't choose to confront it head-on, nor did she try to completely evade the locked pressure. The huge dragon body displayed incredible agility at this moment.
She flapped her wings violently, and an emerald green wind blade field erupted, forming a powerful counter-thrust, while her body spun sideways at an extremely delicate angle.
“Swish!”
The Spear of Wind and Thunder Judgment brushed past her back and pierced into the ground.
Boom!
An indescribable explosion occurred instantly. An energy storm, ten times more terrifying than the first, spread madly in a circular pattern, centered on the point where the spear tip landed.
The earth was torn and lifted up easily like a fragile piece of paper, forming a terrifying pit with a diameter of hundreds of feet.
The destructive shock wave carried with it countless pieces of rubble and fragments of light containing the power of wind and thunder, sweeping in all directions like a tsunami.
Although Qingyi made an extreme dodge, the terrifying power contained in the edge of the Wind and Thunder Spear that passed by her still tore the dragon scales on her flank, leaving a huge wound deep enough to see the bone.
