They recklessly shoved the Rejuvenation Pill into Lu Shenzhi's mouth, but even so, he still didn't react at all.
"Senior Brother!" Shi Xuan called out sternly, "Senior Brother!"
Shi Xuan called out to him while reaching out to pat his face, hoping that he would open his eyes and say, just like when he woke up earlier: "Junior Sister, you're taking this opportunity to hit me again."
But Lu Shenzhi didn't react at all.
The tribulation clouds in the sky continued to brew, and since the tribulation lightning had not stopped, it meant that he still had a breath left.
But this final lightning tribulation will surely be the most terrifying of all the lightning tribulations.
Now that he was almost out of breath, how could he withstand the power of this final bolt of heavenly lightning?
In that instant, Shi Xuan thought about too many things.
Why not send him into Silver Frost? No, because Silver Frost is within the control of the Heavenly Dao. If she refines the Dao Seal Pill within Silver Frost, the Heavenly Dao will send down radiant light. She will definitely not be able to escape this tribulation of lightning.
What should we do? Our eldest brother is definitely not going to be able to withstand this final blow, what should we do!
Shi Xuan anxiously pondered, taking out all the defensive talismans on his body, and opening up all the defensive magical artifacts that could be opened.
If Lu Shenzhi were still conscious, he could cooperate with Shi Xuan to resist the power of the heavenly lightning, but he is now on the verge of death, probably even weaker than a Foundation Establishment cultivator. No matter how many magic artifacts, talismans, and pills he has, they would probably be of no use.
The tribulation clouds grew thicker and thicker, and the surrounding dark clouds were converging towards the center, as if gathering together to unleash the remaining power all at once.
The imposing presence and overwhelming pressure were so heavy that it was hard to breathe.
Left with no other choice, Shi Xuan gritted his teeth and, before the final bolt of lightning struck, took out his puppet sword and stepped on it, floating directly in mid-air to block Lu Shenzhi from directly above, hoping to withstand the full force of the final bolt.
However, how could one person possibly stop the heavenly lightning that even space cannot block?
When the last, terrifying bolt of lightning struck, it disregarded Shi Xuan's expectations and split in two. One half struck Shi Xuan directly, while the other, like before, hit Lu Shenzhi.
Shi Xuan was greatly alarmed. The myriad things that enveloped Lu Shenzhi had done their best to absorb the lightning power that struck Lu Shenzhi, but it was only for a moment, and the reduction was limited. Most of the heavenly lightning still fell on Lu Shenzhi.
Because Shi Xuan was standing on the flying sword above and was using all her strength to absorb Lu Shenzhi's heavenly lightning, she had no time to pay attention to the lightning power that was already overflowing within her body. Therefore, when the last and most powerful heavenly lightning struck, she was also struck and coughed up a mouthful of blood, and then she fainted.
Before she collapsed, she seemed to see a flash of golden light on her senior brother's body. It was probably golden light, or perhaps it was just a hallucination before she lost consciousness.
Before she could think any further, she had already lost consciousness.
The tribulation had passed, and the tribulation clouds in the sky had dispersed, but the golden light that symbolized the successful tribulation had not yet fallen.
Above them, where the lightning tribulation had passed, there seemed to be a faint golden light, but it was only faint and did not fall for a long time.
Lin Daozi was greatly alarmed; the situation looked extremely dire. There was no golden light—had something happened to the person?!
Lin Daozi quickly gathered his energy and leaped towards the back mountain.
Shi Mingxiu followed closely behind, his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the genius disciple, who had just woken up, had been struck by lightning again and suffered some serious injury?
In the blink of an eye, Lin Daozi and Shi Mingxiu arrived at the place where the two were undergoing their tribulations.
The scene that greeted Lin Daozi horrified him to the point of his eyes widening in horror.
In the middle of the chaotic room, the ice jade bed had been smashed to pieces. Lu Shenzhi lay on the floor in the very center, his face ashen, seemingly lifeless.
Meanwhile, the youngest disciple, Shi Xuan, lay unconscious beside him.
Both were covered in blood, and the defensive magic array on the ground was completely destroyed. The wreckage of magical artifacts and fragments of talismans scattered on the ground testified to how devastating the lightning tribulation had been.
"Disciple!" Lin Daozi shouted sternly. He immediately reached for Lu Shenzhi's pulse, but couldn't feel any pulse at all.
"Be careful, be careful! Be careful!" Even a powerful cultivator at the Void Refinement stage couldn't help but shed tears at this moment.
His most beloved disciple, who had been by his side for many years and was as close as father and son, was treated so unfairly and cruelly by fate.
He was in a coma for eleven and a half years after being framed by a villain. When he woke up, before he could even say two words, the Nascent Soul Tribulation came. How could Heaven treat him like this!
Upon seeing this, Shi Mingxiu immediately went to Shi Xuan's side. Although her face was pale, it was clear that she had only fainted and was not in any danger to her life.
Even so, it's still unknown to what extent the injury caused this coma.
Shi Mingxiu gave her a Great Rejuvenation Pill, then put her down and reached out to check her meridians.
This investigation left them utterly astonished!
Shi Xuan's meridians were severely damaged, and his entire body was shattered by the lightning. His internal organs were also mostly damaged, and there was hardly a intact part of him left.
Upon closer inspection, Shi Mingxiu discovered that she seemed to possess an extremely strong self-healing ability. Despite the severity of her injuries, her internal wounds were slowly healing.
He was finally relieved. It was good that she could heal herself, even if it took a long time. He didn't know how much Lin Daozi would suffer if something else happened to her.
For their sect, it meant losing two unparalleled geniuses in a single day, but for Lin Daozi, it meant losing two loved ones all at once.
At this moment, Lin Daozi, who had not shed a tear for hundreds of years, roared to the sky with tears streaming down his face, "Damn you, Heaven! Why are you so unjust!"
Just when the two were in despair, something completely unexpected happened.
The faint, fading golden light in the sky suddenly began to gather, and the golden clouds surged into layers of waves.
The scattered golden rays gradually gathered, eventually transforming into an extremely rich golden light. It descended with a gentle yet vibrant life force and spiritual energy, enveloping the two motionless senior and junior disciples, and even Lin Daozi and Shi Mingxiu were nourished by this golden light.
The profound and subtle Daoist charm was hidden within the golden light, causing those who saw it from afar to be stunned, and some with high comprehension even felt touched.
The golden light was as dazzling and warm as sunlight, yet even more nourishing and calming. It pierced through the layers of clouds and shone directly into the underground palace without hesitation. In an instant, the mess around them was coated with a layer of shimmering light, and the four people bathed in the golden light looked like immortal masters.
