"Ah?"
Xu Que was stumped, "What's wrong? Didn't you say we're leaving tomorrow? "
"I could have but I can't now." Su Ling Er shook her head and pointed at the Lightning Evasion Pills in his hands, "These pills will bring death upon us. We have to leave as soon as possible!"
"What's going on?" Xu Que frowned.
"There are two reasons. The first is that there are traitors within our tribe but I don't know who they are. If they were to leak the news of the Lightning Evasion Pills, within a few days, all the demonic human tribes would kill their way to Sky Demon Tribe. Even the demonic beasts would attack us."
Su Ling Er paused for a moment before looking at Xu Que apologetically. "The second reason is that the old ancestor of my tribe, based on her temperament, would imprison you if she knew that you could concoct the Lightning Evasion Pills. Initially, I wanted to invite you to join our tribe. But now … If you stay here, I'm afraid you'll never be able to leave. "
"You don't have to worry about that. Your old ancestor wouldn't be able to keep me here!" Xu Que replied plainly.
However, he was a little worried about the first reason that Su Ling Er mentioned.
To humans, the Lightning Evasion Pills weren't very useful. After all, the Tribulations of human cultivators weren't that difficult to overcome. At least that was the case in the early stages. Hence, the Lightning Evasion Pills weren't that valuable to the human cultivators. Hence, they didn't pay much attention to it. Hence, it was slowly lost.
However, to the demonic humans and demonic beasts, the Lightning Evasion Pills were extremely valuable. Even a hundred Vitality Pills wouldn't be enough to exchange for one. Furthermore, Xu Que had concocted ten of them in one go. More importantly, once the demonic humans and demonic beasts found out about this, they would definitely want to capture him.
Xu Que wasn't afraid of making enemies out of the entire world. He had many tricks up his sleeves. However, if he were to run away and implicate the Sky Demon Tribe, that would be too immoral of him.
Hence, these Lightning Evasion Pills couldn't be left in the Sky Demon Tribe. If not, he would be in trouble!
"Don't hesitate any longer. Let's set off now. Before they discover us, we have to reach the Lightning Pools!" Su Ling Er spoke out anxiously.
Xu Que nodded his head, "En, I'll go with you. But … will it be safe once we reach the Lightning Reservoir?"
"Of course I'm safe." Su Ling Er was surprised. She looked at Xu Que suspiciously and said in a low voice, "Everyone in my tribe knows that apart from the day of the Thunder Tribulations Worship Ceremony, those who step into the Thunder Pool are not allowed to use magic arts. Otherwise, they will be swallowed by the Thunder Pool! The Lightning Pool is the holy land of the Outsiders, how could you not know that? "
"Aha, I told you, I've been traveling since I was young! Alright, don't ask anymore. Let's go. "Xu Que laughed and immediately urged Su Ling Er to leave.
Although Su Ling Er had some suspicions in her heart, she couldn't see through Xu Que's disguise. Besides, the situation was rather urgent. She didn't think too much about it and brought Xu Que deeper into the forest.
Because the Lightning Pools were extremely far away from the Sky Demon Tribe, the both of them didn't use the cave. Su Ling Er used the teleportation device in the tribe instead.
However, the teleportation device wasn't able to send them directly to the Lightning Pools. It could only save them half the journey!
This was the first time Xu Que had used such a teleportation device and he was extremely curious.
The entire teleportation device was made out of purple spirit stones. It looked like a sacrificial altar and was filled with inscriptions.
In the system store, Xu Que had seen teleportation devices before. However, they were extremely expensive and he couldn't afford them.
"Stand still." Su Ling Er reminded him before walking towards the center of the teleportation device. She retrieved a high grade spirit stone from her storage ring and slammed it into the ground!
Boom!
In an instant, the entire teleportation device was activated. All the inscriptions were glowing brightly as they detached themselves from the stone walls and revolved around the entire teleportation device!
At the next moment, Xu Que felt a strong pulling force pulling him along. His vision blurred as though he was on a roller coaster. In the blink of an eye, he had passed through countless places.
Very quickly, the pulling force disappeared.
When Xu Que regained his vision, he realized that he was in the middle of a barren mountain.
Beneath his feet was also a slightly dilapidated Teleportation Formation.
"From now on, we can only rely on ourselves!" Su Ling Er walked to Xu Que's side and spoke calmly.
Xu Que nodded his head, his eyes still fixated on the teleportation device.
Previously in the Tower of Souls, he had used the One Star Symbol Master Skill Book. Hence, he had some knowledge of runes.
Now that he had personally experienced the might of the teleportation spell, Xu Que was a little tempted. If he could study these runes thoroughly and become a Two Star Amulet Master in the future, he might be able to create a Divine Escape Emblem that would allow him to determine his direction!
"What's wrong?" Su Ling Er asked softly.
Xu Que regained his senses and shook his head, "Nothing. It's just that I'm not used to suddenly being a man and a woman alone."
Su Ling 'er's face turned red as she rolled her eyes at him, "Don't be so glib-tongued. This trip to the Lightning Pools will take at least an entire night. I'm afraid there might be dangers ahead."
"Don't worry. With me around, nobody can hurt you. After all, you still owe me two favors. You can lick twice." Xu Que laughed.
"What do you mean lick twice?" Su Ling Er asked curiously.
"Nothing, nothing. I'll tell you after we pass the Tribulations." Xu Que smiled mysteriously, "Oh yes, I wish to participate in the Tribulations Worship!"
"You?" Su Ling Er paused and laughed bitterly, "You're only at the Full Foundation of the Golden Core Stage. You'll only be going through the 49 Tribulations."
"So what? Can't I participate in the Tribulations Worship? "
"I can. But it doesn't seem necessary. As far as I know, there are a total of eight tribes participating in the Thunder Tribulations Worship Ceremony. All of them are at the Full Foundation of the Original Infant Stage. They are all competing in the 59 Heavenly Tribulations. If you go up and participate, with their temperament, they will definitely mock you! "
"Haha, mock me? It doesn't matter. I'll let them laugh. "Xu Que squinted his eyes and laughed out.
This was such a good opportunity to act tough. Why wouldn't he go?
Besides, Xu Que was extremely confident in his 49 Tribulations. If not, the system wouldn't have warned him and asked him to be prepared!
"I couldn't tell that you have such a calm temperament!" Su Ling Er was surprised.
It was obvious that she thought that Xu Que was the kind of person who insisted on walking his own path and letting others talk!
"Thank you for letting me win. You're flattering me!" Xu Que clasped his hands together and replied.
Su Ling 'er smiled faintly and said, "Since you're not afraid of being mocked by others, this Lightning Tribulations Worship is a good opportunity for you."
"Oh? Why do you say that? "Xu Que asked curiously.
"Don't you know? If you undergo your Tribulations in the Lightning Pool of the Worship, the power of the lightning will be stronger than usual. For example, if I were to trigger my Tribulations here, I'd probably trigger four waves of Tribulations. However, if I were to trigger my Tribulations in the Lightning Pool, I'd trigger six waves of Tribulations. Hence, you can make use of the increased power of the Tribulations to train yourself. You'll definitely reap great rewards. After all, this Worship … Only happens once every hundred years! "Su Ling Er said with anticipation.
However, when Xu Que heard this, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Difficult Mode of Tribulations, coupled with the additional difficulty of the Worship …
