Chapter 157
Even in the fragments of the secret realm, it is impossible to avoid the thunder tribulation during promotion.
This is a gift from Heaven...
The sky was overcast with thunder and lightning.
Even in the fragments of the secret realm, it is impossible to avoid the thunder tribulation during promotion.
This is a test given by Heaven. If you can pass it, it proves that you have been successful in your cultivation and that the spiritual energy you absorbed was not wasted.
Can't make it? Then fall, and return the spiritual power you gained through cultivation to nourish all things.
It’s hard to say whether it’s beneficial for monks, but at least the way of heaven will never let you down.
The thunder tribulation in the Jindan stage is the first test that a cultivator faces. It is also a kind of review to see whether you are qualified to continue on the path of cultivation.
The size of the thunder tribulation is closely related to the cultivator's origin. The better your aptitude, the stronger the thunder tribulation will be. This can be considered a kind of balance in nature.
After all, you were given such good conditions, but you didn't cherish them and practice well. It would be better for you to die early and let your place be vacated for others.
Boom!
With a loud bang, a silver thunder dragon appeared faintly in the dark clouds.
Cheng Hui looked at the thunderclouds above with awe and silently shrank his neck.
Although I already knew that this calamity was inevitable for the cultivator, but...
As a modern man, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
He had seen photos online of trees struck by lightning, which had been turned directly into charcoal. He wondered if he would be struck like that too...
"Forget it, forget it. If I stick my head out, I'll get hurt. If I hide my head, I'll get hurt too. Let's fight!" Cheng Hui said while gritting his teeth. Then he flashed out of the pool and found a large open space.
He didn't have any magic weapon for self-defense, which was not his fault. It was mainly because he didn't expect to advance so quickly.
From the time he established his foundation to the time he reached the Golden Elixir stage, in just ten years, he spent more than 90% of his time in the deserted wilderness.
Obviously no one would give him a magic weapon in such a place.
Eh?
etc!
He suddenly thought of something and quickly searched inside his storage ring.
Someone had volunteered to die before. He remembered that person had quite a few magical weapons. Although most of them had been consumed, there should still be some left.
Even if it's not much, it's enough to resist.
Sure enough, he dug out three magical weapons, a silver shuttle, a handkerchief used by women, and a long pole, which looked like the remains of some kind of magical weapon.
The soul-nourishing tree where Uncle Ghost was temporarily residing had already been thrown far away. Even a ghost cultivator with great cultivation would almost certainly die when faced with a thunder tribulation, let alone a remnant soul like Uncle Ghost, who was simply there to feed the enemy.
Cheng Hui didn't want to lose his cheap master to the chrome-plated thunder tribulation, so when he realized that something was wrong, he sent him far away.
"Hu, calm down, calm down. Although the thunder tribulation came a little suddenly, the overall situation is not bad." Cheng Hui kept talking to himself, trying to relax himself.
Uncle Gui had told him about the precautions regarding thunder tribulations when he entered the late stage of foundation building. Although he didn't have any special magical instruments to overcome thunder tribulations, this was just a golden elixir thunder tribulation, so it wasn't a big problem.
He thought about it, and looking at the silver dragon that was about to be approved, an idea flashed in his mind, and he stuck the broken long pole of the magic weapon into the ground not far away.
I don't know if it's useful, but since it's made of metal, just treat it as a lightning rod.
Cheng Hui thought uncertainly.
Whether it is useful or not is another matter, but what if it does work?
Boom! After a thunderous roar that resounded through the sky, a silver thunder dragon broke through the blockade of dark clouds and swooped down from the sky towards Cheng Hui.
Cheng Hui was horrified!
Oh shit!
This is unscientific! No, this is not cultivation!
Why is my thunder tribulation so powerful!!!
Cheng Hui clearly remembered Uncle Gui telling him that the thunder dragons that usually struck down during a Jindan tribulation were only as thick as a wrist, so why was his the thickness of a water tank?
“Crack!”
Cheng Hui watched with cold sweat as the handkerchief he threw out was torn into two pieces by the Thunder Dragon. The Thunder Dragon circled around and returned to the robbery cloud.
Not good!
Cheng Hui felt that he might be in danger this time. Logically speaking, the Thunder Dragon shouldn't be so powerful, and he didn't do anything against the law... uh...
etc……
Cheng Hui suddenly thought of something.
He doesn't seem like an ordinary person, does he? ...He's a zombie, isn't a zombie considered an outsider? The thunder tribulations that ordinary outsiders have to endure to advance are much more severe than those of ordinary cultivators.
How should I put it? It seems that no matter which world it is, the preference of heaven for humans is very obvious.
Whether it is a demon cultivator or a devil cultivator, if one wants to succeed in cultivation, he must face the many tests of heaven, and the difficulty is much higher than that of ordinary cultivators.
So... I'm being targeted too?
Cheng Hui was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Because his appearance didn't change much, he would unconsciously keep breathing and his heartbeat, to the point where he even forgot that he was actually a zombie...
Wiping his face vigorously, Cheng Hui thought helplessly, okay, it's just that the thunder tribulation is a bit rough, there's nothing to be afraid of, with my thick skin and flesh, it's not a big problem.
At most, you may have to lie down for several days after being struck by lightning, but as long as you don’t die, it’s fine!
"Come on!" Cheng Hui raised his middle finger to the sky.
Boom!
The sky exploded again, and a thunder dragon, a circle thicker than before, poked its head out from the dark clouds.
Cheng Hui: ...
I'm sorry, boss, I was wrong!
Cheng Hui sincerely repented, he shouldn't have been so mean!
After experiencing other small worlds and knowing that the Heavenly Dao might be conscious, why would one seek death?
Perhaps his sincere apology was received by the Heavenly Dao, and the larger thunder dragon shrank back, and the thunder dragon as thick as a water tank emerged again.
Cheng Hui muttered, "Thank you for your generosity, Boss. I was wrong. I won't do it again."
Boom!
The thunder dragon struck again, and this time, the shuttle-shaped magic weapon suffered.
The Thunder Dragon returned to the clouds.
Cheng Hui looked at the shattered magic weapon, then at the thunder dragon circling in the sky, and swallowed hard.
It seems that being struck by lightning is inevitable.
He took a deep breath and made all preparations. Then the Thunder Dragon struck for the third time. A huge roar resounded among its natural enemies. Before the Thunder Dragon could touch him, it suddenly split into two. One of them was attracted to the long metal pole and then led into the ground.
Cheng Hui was overjoyed.
it works!
This makeshift lightning rod really works!
Before he could be happy, the remaining thunder dragon, which was as thick as an elephant's leg, had already struck his head.
For a moment, Cheng Hui thought he had traveled back in time, but soon, the constantly exploding sparks and the lightning flashing on his body proved that he was still living in a very unscientific world.
When asked what it felt like to be struck by lightning, Cheng Hui could only say that it was painful for the first two seconds, followed by an indescribable sour feeling.
The body seemed to have lost control, every muscle was in rebellion, numb and itchy, making one want to scratch deep into the bone marrow.
Before he could recover from the numbness, the fourth thunder dragon swooped down.
It also split into two in mid-air, one was led into the ground by the lightning rod, and the other hit Cheng Hui's head again.
This time, the numbness and soreness were gone, but instead there was a pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.
Cheng Hui had never felt such pain before. The most painful time he remembered seemed to be... uh, he couldn't remember it.
It was as if someone was holding countless steel needles and piercing them deeply into his body. That was not enough, and they were also using a hammer to smash it in bit by bit.
Every inch of his skin and every nerve was screaming in pain. Cheng Hui curled up into a ball and bit his lips hard to avoid screaming out in shame.
"Ah Hui..."
In a daze, he vaguely felt someone holding him in his arms.
A faint fragrance wafted into his nose.
Who is it?
Cheng Hui was thinking in a daze when he felt his mouth being pried open and a slightly cold finger inserted into it.
"Bite me if it hurts."
A very pleasant voice said so.
Cheng Hui's mind was in a daze, but he still instinctively felt that something was wrong.
He held the finger in his mouth and bit it gently. No, how could he have the nerve to bite such a beautiful finger.
Eh? How did he know that fingers are beautiful?
Cheng Hui's brain seemed to have given up working, and he reacted entirely on instinct.
His instinct was very straightforward. Even though it hurt like hell, he couldn't bear to bite that finger.
"I'm sorry I'm late," the voice continued.
Cheng Hui was amused. What does my injury during the tribulation have to do with you? Why are you apologizing?
The thunder dragon struck again, but this time, Cheng Hui did not feel the pain of being struck by lightning. It seemed... he was blocked by someone.
Cheng Hui: ...Huh? That's not right. I've never heard of someone taking the brunt of a thunder tribulation for you?
He tried hard to open his eyes, but could see nothing.
Cheng Hui:?
No? I'm blind? No way?
Later he realized that it was because his head was held in someone's arms.
He struggled a little, and he felt what it felt like to be hit. He felt embarrassed to let others suffer for him.
But unexpectedly, this person pressed his neck hard, and then stroked it gently, as if he was soothing a wild cat with its fur standing on end.
Cheng Hui: ...
The sky was still rumbling, and silver lightning continued to shine through some tiny gaps.
Cheng Hui knew that the thunder tribulation had not yet ended, and in fact, the more time passed, the more powerful the thunder tribulation would become.
He struggled even harder, not wanting the person protecting him to get hurt.
But this person obviously looked very thin, yet he held him tightly in his arms, and no matter how he struggled, he couldn't get free.
Cheng Hui: ...doubting life.JPG
What happened to the zombies that were said to be thick-skinned and powerful?
I suspect I'm a fake zombie!
Until the thunder tribulation ended, Cheng Hui was unable to break free from the arms of this seemingly soft person.
It was not until the sky brightened again and drizzles of rain began to fall that the man finally let go of his hand and revealed his true face.
"Ah Hui, long time no see..."
Cheng Hui's eyes gradually widened, and he couldn't help but blurt out, "Aqiu?"
Lin Qingyang: ???
The smile on Lin Qingyang's face gradually disappeared, and a few wisps of haze appeared on his handsome face. He asked coldly: "Who is Ah Qiu?"
Cheng Hui: …???
Lin Qingyang slowed down and showed an aggrieved expression: "Ah Hui, don't you recognize me?"
Cheng Hui: ...
You may not believe it, but I really can't recognize it now.
Seeing that Cheng Hui was still speechless, Lin Qingyang felt inexplicably annoyed.
Damn it, he was just sleeping for a while, Cheng Hui was also in seclusion, so where did this Aqiu come from?
Cheng Hui looked at the face of Lin Qingyang, who had already grown up, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
He had felt that Aqiu and Lin Qingyang looked a bit similar when they were children, and mistakenly thought they were father and son. Now it seems... are they actually the same person?
etc?
What about Aqiu?
Damn, could it be that he encountered some kind of dual personality?
