Chapter 217 Seven Tribulations of Lightning, the Body of an Arhat!
Qinzhou.
Deep in the mountains.
"call!"
Xiao Bieli slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of stale air.
He stood up and looked at his hands and feet. They were no different from those of an ordinary person, and his internal energy had not transformed into dragon claws like Duan Lang's.
“However…” Xiao Bieli murmured, sensing the changes in his body:
"It's definitely gotten much stronger!"
"And it's all-encompassing!"
After saying that, Xiao Bieli lightly drew a line on his arm with his finger, and blood flowed out, but in just a moment, the wound healed.
"A sign of rejuvenation!"
"Immune to all poisons!"
"Immortality!"
"These most basic attributes are still there, and both the true essence and the primordial spirit and physical body have been strengthened by several times."
"Now that I've killed the leader of the Human Sect and Dongfang Tian, everyone should be even more wary of me. So... I should go and undergo my tribulation first. Six tribulations won't be a problem at all. If I feel I can handle the seventh tribulation without any pressure after passing the sixth, then I'll undergo them all at once!"
After saying that, Xiao Bieli disappeared, and reappeared thousands of meters to the south.
……
Yanzhou.
The deepest part of the desert.
The terrain here is very high and extremely desolate, with not a blade of grass growing. The high mountain cliffs are covered with snow that has never melted for thousands of years, and the biting cold wind howls.
This place is deserted.
Xiao Bieli walked step by step toward the highest peak in the depths of the desert.
The martial arts world in Yanzhou is weak; there are no masters who can hold their own.
Moreover, the attention of the martial arts masters in the Central Plains is currently focused on Qinzhou, and undergoing tribulation in Yanzhou will not attract those masters in the short term.
Standing on the mountaintop,
boom!
Xiao Bieli raised his aura to its peak, as if he were provoking the lightning tribulation.
In a flash,
The once sunny sky was now filled with countless dark clouds.
Dark clouds are threatening to destroy the city!
A terrifying pressure emanated from the dark, heavy clouds.
Boom!
Thunder exploded!
A bolt of purple lightning, as thick as a water bucket, fell from the clouds, striking Xiao Bieli, who was sitting atop the mountain peak, without missing a beat.
Zi la la!
A sound like roasting meat rang out.
Xiao Bieli's clothes, hair, and eyebrows were all reduced to ashes by the first bolt of lightning.
The pure Yang energy contained within the thunder surged into Xiao Bieli's physical body and primordial spirit, strengthening his physical body and primordial spirit.
"I haven't eaten!"
"Pure Yang power, so little!"
As Xiao Bieli's words fell.
Rumble!
Rumble!
A barrage of lightning bolts hurtled towards Xiao Bieli.
The snow on the high mountains melted, turning into torrents that flowed down the mountainside.
……
At this time,
Some experts in the Yanzhou desert also noticed the anomaly deep within the desert.
"What happened?"
"Such terrifying power, could there be some experts fighting inside?"
"Damn it, how can there be so many experts in the world? Xiao Bieli just wiped out the Human Sect not long ago!"
"Sigh, I heard the imperial court is making moves again, hunting down the remnants of the Blood-Clad Tower. Things just keep getting complicated!"
"Have you heard? It seems that Zhuomuer, the former king of the desert, was also a member of the Blood Robe Tower."
"Stop talking. Right now, quite a few experts from the Eastern Depot are searching for traces of Zhuo Muer's old party members. I heard that a big shot has even come to the Eastern Depot!"
"..."
Several figures quietly left; two headed towards the depths of the desert, while the remaining two rode swiftly away from the desert.
They are experts of the imperial court. Such a commotion deep in the desert means that Eunuch Lü is in Yanzhou. We must inform Eunuch Lü as soon as possible.
……
Half an hour later.
The thunder in the depths of the desert dissipated.
Xiao Bieli smelled of burning, but as the lightning disappeared, a layer of dead skin peeled off, revealing fair skin that even women would envy.
Seeing that his skin had become even paler, Xiao Bieli frowned slightly. He circulated his true energy, and his skin turned a few shades yellow.
He's a tough guy, how can he act like a girl?
"The sixth tribulation of lightning poses no challenge to me at all!"
"Continue the tribulation!"
"Once I complete the seventh level of the lightning tribulation, even if those old geezers attack together, they might not be able to defeat me!"
One thought comes to this,
Xiao Bieli did not hesitate at all.
boom!
An atmosphere of terror resurfaced.
boom!
Rumble!
Moments later, thunderbolts rained down once more.
……
And just as Xiao Bieli was undergoing his tribulation.
Lü Qinghong was also alone, quickly heading into the depths of the desert.
Upon seeing Lü Qinghong, the two elite officers from the Eastern Depot, riding swift horses, immediately dismounted, knelt on the ground, and respectfully said:
"Lord Factory Supervisor!"
"Factory Supervisor!"
Lü Qinghong steadied herself and said coldly:
"what happened?"
"Who is undergoing tribulation?"
The expert from the Eastern Depot quickly said:
"We don't know yet. We were searching for traces of Zhuomuer's old party members in the desert when we noticed some unusual activity in the frigid depths of the desert. We thought it was a battle between experts, so we came to report to you immediately, sir!"
"However, two of our brothers have headed towards that no-man's-land!"
Lü Qinghong shook her head and said calmly:
"Don't let this get out yet. I'm going to that no-man's-land myself!"
After saying that, Lü Qinghong stomped on the ground and shot out, covering thousands of meters in an instant.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
……
Lü Qinghong traveled alone for a hundred miles through the bitter cold, her brows slightly furrowed.
The thunder had been burning for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Including the commotion before, it's been almost an hour!
Even if it's the seventh tribulation of lightning, it shouldn't take this long!
Could it really be Xiao Bieli?
After hesitating for a moment, Lü Qinghong still headed towards the deepest part.
Before they had gone far, they saw a middle-aged monk in a gray robe standing beneath a mountain shrouded in lightning. The moment Lü Qinghong saw the monk's face, her expression changed drastically.
Abbot of Jingang Temple!
Master Shi Xian!
That master who single-handedly saved the declining Kongo Temple!
“Benefactor Xiao is undergoing tribulation, so it’s best if Supervisor Lü doesn’t get too close, lest it cause a misunderstanding.” Master Shixian smiled slightly at Lü Qinghong, showing no hostility whatsoever.
Lü Qinghong bowed slightly:
"I dare not go any further!"
Another half incense stick's time passed, and the thunder on the mountaintop dissipated.
The power of blood and qi surged.
boom!
Xiao Bieli's hair and eyebrows grew out.
With a flash, Xiao Bieli appeared on another mountain peak, put on the clothes he had prepared beforehand, and then suddenly turned around and flew towards the location of Lü Qinghong and Master Shixian.
"I've kept you both waiting!" Xiao Bieli stopped and then looked at Master Shixian.
This monk's martial arts skills are even above those of Dongfang Tian, and he doesn't have that sense of separation between his primordial spirit and physical body. He seems to have reached this level without going through a possession or rebirth.
Therefore, he can be considered a notable figure!
"A body of crystal and jade, the physique of an Arhat!" Master Shi Xian exclaimed, hands clasped together.
"Originally, I thought that Benefactor Xiao had already reached the eighth or even ninth level of the Thunder Tribulation because he caused such a big commotion in Qinzhou."
"Now it seems I underestimated Benefactor Xiao. With a body at the fifth level of the Thunder Tribulation, killing the leader of the Human Sect and the Sword God Dongfang Tian is truly an invincible feat!"
