Chapter 33 Thunder Tribulation Do you want me to die with you?
It was the first time that Xu Xingxing saw such an expression on Xu Yi's face.
It was an expression that she hadn't found in Xu Xing'er's memories for more than twenty years.
His eyes were wide open, his pupils shrank, his pale lower lip trembled involuntarily, and his chest stopped rising and falling, as if he was suffocating.
Those eyes that were always indifferent and cold seemed to flash through many emotions, and yet seemed to have no emotions at all.
It was as if someone had turned back the clock, and the years had gone back. The white-haired leader who had experienced many hardships had turned back into the ignorant child who made mistakes hundreds of years ago.
After a long time, he uttered a voice with difficulty in his throat:
"you……"
Before he finished speaking, a trickle of blood slowly flowed from the corner of his lips.
He took two sharp breaths, probably trying to force himself to finish his words:
"You are unreasonable."
The same thing.
Shi He smiled again. To be precise, he had been smiling since he met Xu Yi.
At first Xu Xingxing didn't understand. He was trying to escape like crazy just two hours ago, so why did he turn into this gentle and kind brother now?
But at this moment, she seemed to understand a little.
We are all going to die, so it would be nice to see each other. We are all going to die, so I would be happy to die by your sword.
She thought of the broken expression on Shi He's face when Xu Yi stopped him, and suddenly realized that he probably didn't want to leave alive at that time.
Otherwise, he would not have lost to Xu Yi.
Even if we can't win completely, just escaping should be possible.
Xu Yi should have noticed it too.
So, when he saw Shi He's smile, his chest rose and fell even more violently, and he actually cursed, "Idiot!"
Shi He, who was called a fool, looked at him helplessly and said:
"If you're not stupid, who would want to be friends with you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he slapped Xu Yi away with a palm, and before anyone could react, he reached out and grabbed Xu Xingxing who was standing there in a daze.
By the time she reacted and wanted to fight back, a wave of blood suddenly rolled up around her body, sweeping the two of them in. Xu Xingxing was just about to mobilize her spiritual power to break through, when a surge of pain exploded from her chest the next second, covering her entire body in an instant. The pain was like being tortured to death, making her mind go blank for a moment!
This pain is really familiar.
She suddenly realized, endured the severe pain and opened her eyes, looking at Shi He who was chanting with his eyes closed opposite her.
I saw that heavy waves of blood were continuously pouring out from his heart on the back, like a wave that enveloped the two of them, and then separated into several small streams that tightly bound her limbs!
She looked at the familiar blood curse, alarm bells blaring in her chest—
Shi He is passing on his skills to her!
Someone must have been attacking. The sound of magic exploding came from outside, and waves of blood rose and fell. Shi He couldn't bear the burden and spit out a mouthful of blood, but he was not moved at all and recited the terms a little faster.
Xu Xingxing felt like he was about to explode, as if broken glass was embedded in his blood vessels. As the blood flowed, it scraped against his internal organs and even his entire body veins over and over again.
Soon, a strong smell of blood filled her mouth and nose, and even her eyes were covered with a layer of red.
Every time she felt like she was dying from the pain, it would send her to a new level of pain.
She no longer cared about anything and didn't even have the strength to scream. When she was in so much pain that she almost bit her tongue to commit suicide, suddenly, the pain disappeared completely. She seemed to be sinking in the clouds, floating in the waves, and it seemed as if she was the only one left in the world.
As if bathed in sunlight, she was wrapped in clouds, feeling so comfortable in the haze that she wanted to fall asleep.
But she was still conscious. It was the middle of the night, where was the sun?
Xu Xingxing could no longer feel his limbs. He shook his head with effort and blinked to squeeze the blood out of his eyes.
Only then can you see around you again.
The blood wave became very thin, with only a little blood mist left, as if it was about to dissipate. Shi He, who was standing opposite, had chicken skin and white hair, lost teeth and a dull tongue, like a candle in the wind.
Seeing her looking at him, he lifted his tired eyelids with difficulty and gave her a relieved smile. He turned his face slightly towards Xu Yi, but as soon as his neck turned slightly, his withered body began to gradually disintegrate.
First it was his legs, then his waist. He seemed unaware and was still trying to turn his face away. However, when he turned halfway, his whole body disappeared.
Xu Yi looked at this place, and for the first time, naked helplessness appeared in his eyes.
Everything was silent except for the sound of snowflakes falling slowly. Something came and went lightly, and only the wind swirled the snowflakes in circles on the ground.
Everyone on the ground looked up at her, some with worry, some with fear, some with deep thought, and some with shock.
Only then did Xu Xingxing realize that he was hanging in the air.
She was not panicked. Even though she had just seen a living person turn into ashes in front of her, she did not feel much reality. She just felt that the surroundings were too quiet and too dull.
Suddenly, a snowflake landed between her eyebrows, like a drop of water falling into a quiet lake, a hawk piercing the sky, and lightning splitting the clouds. Someone pressed the play button on the deadly silent world, and it suddenly became noisy.
But no one spoke at the scene.
It is people's breathing and heartbeats, the sound of wind and falling leaves in the distance, and the sound of falling snowflakes.
Small streams merged into rivers, rivers merged into rivers, and large rivers flowed back into the sea. The layers of sounds, like thousands of troops, suddenly rushed into her ears and squeezed into her brain, making her head hurt instantly.
It's about to explode.
But she didn't want to move at all, as if she was numb.
She looked at Xu Yi, and Xu Yi was also looking at her. Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind.
It would be great if Xiao Hei was awake.
But in just a moment, she couldn't remember anything.
She saw that Xu Yi had completely gotten rid of his previous confusion. He looked at the sky with a frown and made a gesture to the Kunlun disciples.
The disciples below retreated and surrounded her.
This can't be, is it to get rid of her?
no.
She saw Xu Yi frown and said to Qi Rongli, "Go and disperse the people around here."
Then Qi Rongli quickly left with the remaining palace soldiers.
She heard someone talking, it was Fang Zhiming's voice.
"Why are the clouds so thick? I've never seen clouds this thick!"
"You are ignorant. Senior sister has advanced from Nascent Soul to Spiritualization after all. The intensity of the thunder tribulation she experienced cannot be compared with yours and mine." Qin Feng retorted.
"Bullshit, do you think I am you? I have only seen the thunder tribulation of the Jindan stage! The clouds when Master broke through the Lianxu stage were not this thick, okay?!" Fang Zhiming's tone suddenly became impatient.
"Get lost! Why are you cursing me for no reason—" Qin Feng seemed to have suddenly figured things out. He didn't even finish his reply, his voice trembling. "You...what do you mean? Even the Void Refining Tribulation isn't this strong? So, what realm is Senior Sister trying to break through to?"
"I've read in ancient books that there are three types of thunder tribulations for becoming an immortal: the forty-nine minor heavenly tribulations, known as human tribulations, totaling thirty-six heavenly thunders; the sixty-nine major heavenly tribulations, known as earthly tribulations, totaling fifty-four heavenly thunders; and the ninety-nine return to the true self tribulations, totaling ninety-nine eighty-one heavenly thunders. From Nascent Soul to Mahayana, they are all earthly tribulations, so logically, there should be sixty-nine major heavenly tribulations. However, if one ascends to a higher realm, the thunder tribulations will pile up continuously."
Lin Yue's tone was extremely serious. "Just now, all of Shi He's skills were passed on to Senior Sister. If Senior Sister continues to advance, the thunder tribulation she will endure will probably be even more severe than the Nine-Nine Return Tribulation..."
She didn't say anything else, but everyone understood.
Including Xu Xingxing who was hanging in the air.
The Nine-Nine Return to True Nature Tribulation is the thunder tribulation suffered when becoming an immortal. It is an issue that only Mahayana cultivators who have reached great perfection need to consider. Regardless of their physical strength or spiritual power and magic, Mahayana cultivators all have the confidence to fight against the ninety-nine heavenly thunders.
And now, she, a cheating rookie, had to withstand more than a hundred heavenly thunders. The result was very clear, but there was only one problem.
When did she die?
Xu Xingxing regained some of his composure.
This is fucked up! Is it okay if she doesn't want to be the boss? She just wants to complete a mission, why does she have to be forced to eat blood bags?!
The air became heavy and everyone's breathing was reduced to the lowest point, leaving only the drum-like heartbeats in their chests, which sounded like a symphony played by countless deer with their heads.
If it weren't for the muffled sound of thunder above her head, Xu Xingxing would have thought that everyone present had a crush on her.
She tried to mobilize her spiritual power, and the spiritual energy in her body instantly surged throughout her body like a surging wave. Her limbs, which had just been limp, instantly regained their vitality, just like Popeye who had just eaten spinach.
She had never felt so good before. Her body was light, her breathing was smooth, and her whole body was filled with endless strength. Now she had no problem carrying the bucket of water up and down the 28th floor a hundred times.
As a result, Xu Xingxing's emotions also became excited. He looked up at the increasingly brighter clouds, and felt a sense of "my destiny is in my own hands".
Fuck his father, even if I die I have to fuck his father first!
The clouds were getting lower and lower, like a devil that wanted to tear the world apart. The lightning was getting brighter and the thunder was getting louder, as if they couldn't wait to strike the earth and explode everything into smoke!
Xu Xingxing looked up at the clouds without any fear, like a god standing on the top of a mountain ready to fight against all the demons!
"I think I understand why the Tianji Pavilion predicted that Senior Sister would be the savior..." Fang Zhiming murmured, "Qin Feng, what do you think..."
"Um……"
It's rare for the two to agree.
Qin Feng stared blankly at the beautiful figure standing in the air.
Her eyebrows and eyes looked even more gorgeous under the illumination of lightning, and her frail figure seemed to emanate the aura of a king that could make all living beings bow down to her. She stood high in the air, with nothing under her feet, and everyone could only look up at her. Compared to her, all living beings were dust and mud, as if looking up was the posture they were supposed to have, and as if yearning was the only emotion they could have.
Although he has not yet become an immortal, he seems like a real immortal.
"But...Senior Sister is wearing ordinary clothes..." Lin Yue said weakly.
Qin Feng and Fang Zhiming's hearts skipped a beat, and their expressions became complicated.
Xu Yi, who was standing by, also heard it. He spoke in a low, yet dignified voice:
"Close your eyes."
Everyone closed their eyes.
Their mission is to block the outward-expanding power of the thunder, and they can do it even with their eyes closed.
Of course Xu Xingxing heard it.
Now she has stepped out of nothingness and become the most criticized lady in the world of cultivation.
After cursing in his heart, he began to think:
How can one be struck into ashes directly after being unable to withstand the thunder?
After all, she really didn't want to lie naked in front of everyone.
Before she could think for too long, the thunder came roaring down.
Lightning bolts as thick as tree trunks struck her in the blink of an eye, as if teleporting.
She condensed an ice sword, opened a barrier, and directly blocked the first thunder from above!
A thousand-foot-long ray of light exploded above Xu Xingxing's head and spread directly to all directions. Even though the monks below formed a square formation, the roofs of the houses where the lightning passed were still directly blown off!
Another bolt of thunder fell!
The barrier that could not bear the weight was shattered in an instant. She held up her sword to block it, but the blade of the ice sword was split by gravity, and a bolt of lightning was split into two. She chopped it with all her strength, and the two bolts of lightning passed by her side and fell to the ground!
A five-meter-deep pit instantly appeared on the ground! The inner quarters of the Zhou Mansion were completely shattered!
The third and fourth...
The tenth, the twentieth...
Fortieth, forty-first...
At first, Xu Xingxing was very excited, but as the thunder came one after another, she became more and more exhausted. The ice blade had broken and the skin on her hands had been blown off. She numbly used all her strength to resist over and over again.
But the full force is getting less and less.
I can't remember how many thunderbolts there were.
Another bolt of lightning struck, and she shielded herself with her bare hands. The intense lightning threatened to pierce her eyeballs, and the thunder pierced her eardrums. The stench of blood surged upward from her orifices. Her fingers had become dry bones, and her arms were left with only shredded flesh...
I'm going to die. I'm really going to die.
There was only one thought in her hazy mind -
She had to protect this tattered dress...
Can't be naked...
Even if I die...
In a trance, Xu Xingxing was struck by another bolt of lightning. She no longer had much strength and had even lost her five senses. She could not even feel the pain. She even felt a strange sense of relief as she watched the lightning split her flesh into pieces.
very good.
If I chop her into bones, she won't be considered naked anymore...
Too tired...
I really want to take a break.
Another bolt of lightning struck. She half-closed her eyes and watched the lightning coming towards her face, facing the impending death calmly.
Fuck the mission... I've had enough of this shit...
Everything is in slow motion at this moment.
She saw the thunder getting closer and closer, flashing dazzling lightning.
She saw snowflakes falling on her white knuckles at a very slow speed and then being blown away by the breeze.
She saw a long sword thrown over, blocking the lightning, but was struck by the following lightning.
Oh, that’s Xu Yi’s sword.
Haha, there is still some fatherly love.
She saw that before the sword even hit the ground, it was grabbed by a big mouth and thrown into the clouds.
Big mouth?
The owner of the big mouth had a body as tall as a tower, with hair reflecting a shiny black in the light, and eyes as red as blood. The bell around its neck grew as big as a table along with its body. It leaped into the air, above her, blocking the lightning behind it.
Spiritual beast, Huodou.
Xu Yi's sword split the thunder from the clouds into several small streaks of lightning. From her perspective, it looked like a pair of wings made of thunder and lightning, spreading out behind the Huo Dou!
Lightning flashed around her, mixed with red rain dripping from above.
It's its blood.
Those huge red pupils stared at her closely, the emotions flowing in them were anger, anger, and for the first time, undisguised pity...
Its voice was as rich as a bell, making her already fragile brain buzz, but at this moment it gave her an endless sense of intimacy and security.
I only heard him curse fiercely:
"Idiot! Do you want me to die with you?!"
