After absorbing god spiritual energy to cultivate to the Great Circle of the Immortal Reverent Stage, Lan Xiaobu's original Longevity Art was already extraordinary. After feeling the shackles of the Immortal Emperor Stage, Lan Xiaobu attracted the Immortal Emperor Lightning Tribulation in just two hours.
The first wave of lightning tribulation had nine bolts, and each bolt was as thick as a small water bucket. Lan Xiaobu chose to face it head-on. Bolts of lightning landed on Lan Xiaobu's body, causing blood to spurt out. On the other hand, Lan Xiaobu was overjoyed. Even though his fleshly body hadn't advanced, the years of tempering at the bottom of the swamp didn't go to waste. It allowed his fleshly body to rise to another level.
Lan Xiaobu reckoned that even if he didn't circulate his physique tempering technique, the Undying Art, he would still be able to face all nine bolts of lightning.
Under the circulation of the Longevity Art, lightning essence and dense immortal spiritual energy surged over. What made Lan Xiaobu pleasantly surprised was that the first wave of lightning tribulation almost helped him open a crack in the Immortal Emperor Stage. After the nine bolts of lightning, Lan Xiaobu only had a few broken bones.
In this sort of lightning tribulation, even the Reincarnation Pot that Lan Xiaobu prepared was useless.
The second and third waves of lightning tribulation descended together. Lan Xiaobu had a clear understanding of his own endurance. This time, he didn't circulate his Undying Art. Instead, he circulated his Longevity Art to absorb the lightning essence. Then, he continued to attack the shackles of the Immortal Emperor Stage.
To Lan Xiaobu, without god spiritual energy, he wouldn't be able to break through the shackles of the Immortal Emperor Stage so quickly. Even though he was just a hair's breadth away, he still wasn't able to break through. Ordinary immortal spiritual energy didn't have a strong impact on Lan Xiaobu. If he wanted to use this opportunity to step into the Immortal Emperor Stage, without god spiritual energy, he would need to borrow the power of the lightning tribulation's lightning essence.
18 bolts of lightning landed on Lan Xiaobu's body. Because Lan Xiaobu didn't circulate his physique tempering technique, his bones shattered even more. The large amount of lightning source with clear laws almost caused Lan Xiaobu to blast a crack in the Immortal Emperor Realm for the second time.
The fourth wave of Lightning Tribulation had a total of nine bolts. When Lan Xiaobu almost broke through the Immortal Emperor Realm for the third time, his heart sank.
He felt that there was something wrong with his senses. It was very likely that it wasn't just a little bit, but a lot more. Without god spiritual energy, if he wanted to step into the Immortal Emperor Realm, he would need more lightning sources. If he was only a hair's breadth away from stepping into the Immortal Emperor Realm every single time, then he might not be able to step into the Immortal Emperor Realm even after nine waves of tribulation lightning …
The Immortal Emperor Lightning Tribulation was a nine-nine Lightning Tribulation. Surviving nine waves of Lightning Tribulation and still not advancing to the Immortal Emperor Realm seemed to have never happened in the history of the Immortal World.
Lan Xiaobu had only heard of those who failed to attract the Immortal Emperor Lightning Tribulation and ultimately failed to advance to the Immortal Emperor Realm. Or perhaps they attracted the Immortal Emperor Lightning Tribulation, but failed to pass it and died. He had never heard of anyone being unable to advance to the Immortal Emperor Realm due to a lack of Spiritual Origin after attracting a Lightning Tribulation and transcending nine Lightning Tribulations.
Was he trying to create history? That's not right. Since there were no precedents of people being unable to advance to the Immortal Emperor Realm after undergoing nine Lightning Tribulations, that meant that all the Immortal Reverents who failed to advance to the Immortal Emperor Realm, regardless of whether they underwent nine Lightning Tribulations or not, had all died.
No, he had to give it his all.
The fifth wave of Lightning Tribulation descended. Indeed, there were nine bolts. This time, Lan Xiaobu wasn't willing to wait any longer. He charged up and punched the Lightning Tribulation.
This punch seemed to have landed on the Lightning Tribulation's reverse scale. Just as the fifth wave of Lightning Tribulation descended, the sixth wave, seventh wave, eighth wave, a total of 36 Lightning Tribulation bolts descended. However, this wasn't the end. Following which, the ninth wave of Lightning Tribulation bolts descended.
With so many Lightning Tribulation bolts descending, it was clear that it wanted to kill Lan Xiaobu.
45 Lightning Tribulation bolts descending at the same time. Lan Xiaobu was the one who triggered it. Naturally, he wouldn't miss it. If these Lightning Tribulation bolts wanted to kill him, they were still lacking.
Lan Xiaobu didn't care about the injuries to his fleshly body. He desperately absorbed the Lightning Essence. Then, with the help of the Longevity Art, these Lightning Essence condensed into a wave of energy that blasted towards the Immortal Emperor shackles.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Kacha!
His bones shattered continuously. His skin and flesh were completely turned into rags by the Lightning Tribulation bolts. At this moment, there was no longer a mist of blood. Lan Xiaobu's entire body was paralyzed. He had turned into a bloodied man.
Lan Xiaobu hadn't been like this for a long time. He hadn't been so heavily injured by the Lightning Tribulation.
However, he still managed to hold on. If he wanted to step into the Immortal Emperor Realm, he had to rely on this Lightning Essence.
As the Lightning Tribulation bolts slowly dissipated, Lan Xiaobu's heart became heavier and heavier. The ninth wave of Lightning Tribulation had passed. He still hadn't stepped into the Immortal Emperor Realm. Not only that, his injuries had already reached an irreversible stage. If an enemy came at this moment, he would be dead for sure.
He, Lan Xiaobu, would become the first Immortal Reverent to pass the ninth wave of Lightning Tribulation without stepping into the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Lan Xiaobu swallowed a drop of Void Immortal Essence and swallowed a few pills. Just as he was about to find a place to recuperate, a berserk aura swept over.
All the hairs on Lan Xiaobu's body stood. Not only was his scalp numb, even his primordial spirit was trembling.
This was the aura of death. His guess was right. If one didn't step into the Immortal Emperor Realm after the ninth wave of Lightning Tribulation, then there was only one path: death!
How would he die? It definitely had something to do with the Laws of Heaven and Earth. At this moment, how could Lan Xiaobu care about anything else? He did not hesitate to charge into the Cosmos Dimension Mode.
However, at the next instant, the powerful Laws of Heaven and Earth restricted his movements. He was completely unable to enter the Cosmos Dimension Mode. This person was determined to kill him.
At this instant, Lan Xiaobu really wanted to curse out loud. Silent God Valley had existed for so many years. Which person didn't absorb god spiritual energy? Why didn't they face such a terrifying punishment when they advanced into the Immortal Emperor Realm? He had only cultivated for a few decades. Why did he have to face such a terrifying punishment?
It was truly because his cultivation was too low. If his cultivation was higher, he would definitely drag out the creator of this Law and ask him clearly.
The aura of death was getting closer and closer. Lan Xiaobu could only forcefully take out the Reincarnation Pot to protect himself.
At almost the same instant that Lan Xiaobu used the Reincarnation Pot to protect himself, a meter long lightning bolt descended. This lightning bolt was originally going to strike Lan Xiaobu's head. Because Lan Xiaobu hid within the Reincarnation Pot, this lightning bolt struck the Reincarnation Pot.
A berserk and terrifying aura extended from the Reincarnation Pot. Then, it extended outwards. Lan Xiaobu, who was already paralyzed on the ground, had no strength to struggle. He could only spit out a few mouthfuls of blood.
With such a terrifying aura, if it wasn't for the Reincarnation Pot, Lan Xiaobu and a few others would have died.
At this moment, Lan Xiaobu could only hope that this terrifying attack was gone. He could use the Reincarnation Pot to survive once. However, he might not be able to survive a second time.
After a while, Lan Xiaobu confirmed that this terrifying aura was gone. Only then did he carefully circulate the Longevity Art to heal his injuries.
The moment he circulated the Longevity Art, Lan Xiaobu felt his meridians and sea of consciousness rumble. Dense and pure lightning essence instantly flooded his entire body. Even though he didn't use his full strength to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm, his Immortal Emperor shackles were unknowingly broken.
How could Lan Xiaobu not know that he should grab hold of this opportunity? He increased the speed of the Longevity Art's circulation.
A Dao cry resounded. Lan Xiaobu felt his entire fleshly body sublimate to the extreme. This Reincarnation Pot seemed to be filled with pure lightning essence. This lightning essence was extracted by Lan Xiaobu. His sea of consciousness crazily expanded. His meridians expanded. His dantian, which was originally filled with immortal elemental energy, was instantly emptied.
Success! Lan Xiaobu was so excited that he didn't dare to hesitate. He continued to circulate the Longevity Art to stabilise his Immortal Emperor Realm.
He had never thought that he would advance to the Immortal Emperor Realm in a pot. No matter what, it was enough that he advanced to the Immortal Emperor Realm. Lan Xiaobu rapidly stabilised his cultivation. His injuries also recovered rapidly after advancing to the Immortal Emperor Realm.
…
"This is the Sea of Kun Ruins?" Luo Caisi, who was standing on the flying magic treasure, looked at the scene in front of her in shock.
This was the first time she saw a boundless sea in the void. The vast universe was truly too mysterious.
On the other hand, Jia Yunkong heaved a sigh of relief. He had finally sent Luo Caisi to the Sea of Kun Ruins. Now, they only needed to head to the Sea of Kun Ruins.
"Yes, this is the Sea of Kun Ruins. Under normal circumstances, it would take at least 70 to 80 years to reach the Sea of Kun Ruins from where I was. However, my flying magic treasure is still passable. Therefore, it only took me 40 years to reach here. The Kun Peng's speed is definitely not as fast as mine. Even if Lan asked Liang Chanxu to use his flying magic treasure at full power, he should only be able to reach here. He might even be behind us. Of course, Lan has his own flying magic treasure. If he used his flying magic treasure, he would have reached here decades earlier, "Jia Yunkong explained.
Jia Yunkong was very proud of his flying magic treasure.
"The Sea of Kun Ruins looks very peaceful," Gudao said.
Jia Yunkong smiled faintly. "That's because you didn't enter the Sea of Kun Ruins. Normally, newcomers only have a 10% chance of survival after entering the Sea of Kun Ruins."
There was something else that Jia Yunkong did not say. In fact, if he had not led the way, Gudao and Luo Caisi might not have been able to reach this place. Even if they had reached this place, they might not have been able to reach the Liang Family.
"The Sea of Kun Ruins is so huge. I'm afraid there is still a long way to go to the Liang Family, right?" Luo Caisi asked.
Jia Yunkong nodded. "Yes. If we relied on our flying magic treasure to reach the Liang Family directly, we would have a 90% chance of survival even with me. However, I know a safer route. We can reach the Kun Ruins Immortal City by flying for three months from here. After reaching the Kun Ruins Immortal City, we can take the Teleportation Array and go directly to the Liang Family's territory. "
"Kun Ruins Immortal City?" Gudao's eyes lit up. "Island Lord Jia, is there an Immortal City in the Sea of Kun Ruins?"
Jia Yunkong answered, "Of course there is. In fact, there is more than one. However, the Kun Ruins Immortal City is not ordinary. There are six major powers in the Sea of Kun Ruins. They are the Great Kun Immortal Palace, the Immeasurable Market, the Three Immortal Palace, the Luan Reef Island, the Kun Ruins Immortal City and the Dragon Cry Valley. As you have heard, the Kun Ruins Immortal City is ranked fifth. No one dares to offend it in the Sea of Kun Ruins. Therefore, after reaching the Kun Ruins Immortal City, you will be safe as long as you do not offend the people in the Immortal City. This is not easy in the Sea of Kun Ruins. "
