C1175 Astral Thunder Tribulations

"In such peace and serenity, one gradually enters the path of truth; as one enters the path of truth, his name is Dao; although his name is Dao, he has gained nothing; for the sake of transforming all living beings, his name is Dao; those who have comprehended can be passed on to the Holy Way … "The path of truth is something that the enlightened are content with; those who comprehend the Dao are quiet and peaceful!"

Every word that Lin Bai recited was so clear that it permeated the eardrums of the crowd.

Upon hearing these words, those inner demons in the middle of the crowd suddenly halted their actions. After which, the spectators only felt as though a bright light had appeared in their minds, penetrating through the thick fog. It was like a burning torch in the night, piercing right into their hearts, bringing them endless hope.

Under the guidance of this light, the devils intertwined with the divine senses of the crowd swiftly dissipated. Those remnants of rationality swiftly gained the upper hand as they suppressed the chaotic streams of divine senses, turning them into nothingness.

Seeing the faces of the crowd gradually turning clear, Lin Bai felt a sense of joy in his heart. He was glad that nothing else had happened, but all these years, he had experienced the backlash of the Heavenly Dao which far surpassed everyone else. Every time, the backlash would sharpen his mind, allowing his spiritual will to reach the state of being unmoving and invulnerable to both wind and metal. Only when one's heart was tranquil and calm could one's skills and techniques be enlightened.

And it was because of this reason that Lin Bai was able to control his heart and awaken the crowd.

As the expressions on the faces of the crowd gradually became clearer, the cold wind that seemed to rise from the ground gradually dissipated, returning to the ground once more. Everything felt like a dream, there were no traces of the cold wind that could be found.

The Yin Wind Tribulation was over! As the cold wind dispersed, the pill in Lin Bai's hand now had an additional layer of strange light. It even gave off a hazy, yet illusory fragrance, causing one's heart to feel clear and bright upon smelling it.

After the Pill Tribulation, the efficacy of the pill would be even better! Sensing the changes in the pill in his hands, Lin Bai was overjoyed. As he had said before, he was indeed afraid that the pills were not effective enough to wake Chen Baian from his deep slumber. However, now that the pill had the effects of clearing the heart and awakening the spirit, it was naturally able to ensure that Chen Baian's soul would not perish under the effects of the pill.

"Senior, I'll leave the astral thunder tribulation to you!" After the Yin wind dissipated, Lin Bai followed Wu Qi's instructions without any hesitation and sat down cross-legged on the ground. He narrowed his eyes and slowly formed seals with his hands, controlling his breathing and maintaining a clear mind.

"Alright!" Seeing that Lin Bai had so easily resolved the Yin Wind Calamity, even Wuzhi Qi was somewhat surprised. As he felt the surrounding lightning essence gradually dissipating, Wu Qi's eyes were filled with a burning desire. Clenching his fists tightly, he viciously shook his body.

Right at this moment, above the sealed grounds, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly let out a rumbling sound. This sound was overshadowed by the previous one. Then, a shining light, like a divine weapon that had descended from the heavens, suddenly cleaved down towards the ground!

However, the moment the lightning came into contact with the ground, it quickly disappeared as if it had torn through space. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived at the dome of the land. The frenzied lightning essence gushed forth like steel blades, unceasingly tearing at the bodies of the crowd. Despite being in the periphery of the Pill Tribulation, the hair of Ninth Master Qin and the rest were still standing on end.

"Come at me!" Wuzhi Qi's expression was calm as he looked at the Astral Thunder that descended from the sky, his eyes filled with excitement. Although he had been cultivating with the owner of the cave for a long time, this was the first time he came in contact with the heavenly lightning. Moreover, his cultivation had already reached the peak of the Martial Dao, so why would he be afraid of these mere Supreme Lightning?

The Astral Thunder formed from the violent thunder elemental energy seemed to have surpassed the speed of light. In the blink of an eye, it had already arrived ten meters in front of Wuzhi Qi. Seeing the gale thunder getting closer and closer, Wuzhi Qi took a deep breath, clenched his fist and slowly pulled back his right fist.

"Break for me!" Wuzhi Qi's body suddenly swelled up. The monstrous blood energy emitted from his body was like a balloon blowing in front of him. Suddenly, a huge ape phantom appeared, doing the same thing as him.

Boom!" With that roar, Wuzhi Qi's right fist swung out. It was indescribable how powerful that fist was, the powerful whirlpool it brought out had completely enveloped Wuqi, making it impossible for anyone to see his body.

In that moment, it was as if the only thing that remained in the sky and in the earth was the gigantic phantom of a fist! That fist was like the huge hand that Pangu had used to create the world. It was simple and naive, but it was flawless like an antelope that could not be found.

Along with the appearance of the fist's violent cyclone, it flickered endlessly, causing one's heart to palpitate. Then, the blood energy around his body began to converge into a fist shadow. It was as if it wanted to destroy the heavens, and it didn't even turn back as it charged forward to meet the Astral Thunder.

Looking at that punch, Ninth Master Qin was at a loss for words. In the past, he'd always been proud of himself as a martial arts master, but now that he saw Lin Bai, he realized just how weak he was! But now, after seeing Wuzhi Qi's punch, he understood that he was probably much weaker than he imagined. Compared to Wuzhi Qi, he was like an ant crawling around!

The Summer Bug does not know the beauty of winter snow, nor does it know the grandeur of the World Tree. This was the gap between the two of them. Ninth Master Qin felt that if he and Wuzhi Qi were to fight, being crushed to death by a single finger would not be surprising at all.

When the fist shadow and the Supreme Lightning came into contact, a loud rumbling sound immediately erupted! After which, the section of the Astral Lightning shattered at a speed visible to the naked eye. An incomparably violent lightning elemental energy, like a storm, rippled in all directions. The entire Immortal's cave began to shake, as if the various spell formations in the area were incapable of withstanding the ripples.

It was shattered! He actually used his bare hands to shatter the lightning from the Pill Tribulation! Even though Zhang Sanming had seen too much of Lin Bai's lightning attacks, he had never seen a method that could destroy a section of the lightning with a single strike like Wu Qi's.

What is astral thunder? It is the anger of the heavens! However, even the Heavenly Dao was smashed into smithereens by this monkey's fist. What the f * ck was this?! Zhang Sanfeng wanted to laugh and cry, but he could not believe his eyes.

"It's not fun!" Wuzhi Qi clenched his fist, the creaking sounds coming from his joints were like fried beans, and the expression on his face became more and more excited.

As if sensing Wuzhi Qi's will to fight, the dark clouds gathering above the land shook even more violently. Then, as they squeezed together, a dragon-like bolt of lightning suddenly descended down, slicing through the soil as it headed towards Wuzhi Qi.

"Alright, let me relax my bones!" Seeing the heavenly thunder which was several times more powerful than before, Wuzhi Qi was overjoyed. Waving his huge fist, he rushed forward and yelled, "Kid, after this heavenly thunder, the Astral Thunder Tribulation is over! You should prepare yourself for this tribulation. Remember my words, hold your breath, and hold your breath as though your mind is one! "

As the sound of his voice faded, Wuzhi Qi's enormous body instantly collided head-on with the dragon-like Astral Thunder. Monstrous blood energy roiled unceasingly, and the aura of thunder essence wantonly spread out, as if it wanted to slaughter everyone in the surroundings.

"I was just worried that I wouldn't be able to eat peaches in the future, so you sent it to me." Wuzhi Qi's eyes revealed joy as he stared at the Astral Thunder that radiated the aura of boundless lightning. His body suddenly slowed as fists like dragons and snakes coiled around the Astral Thunder, zigzagging endlessly. It was as if he was planning to use the blood energy around him to envelop this bolt of heavenly lightning.

Although Wuzhi Qi's figure was huge, his movements were light and agile! In just a few short breaths of time, he had circled around the astral lightning once. The blood aura that was as vast as the ocean from his body had completely enveloped the astral lightning. To Zhang Sanmeng, this scene was as spectacular as a flood dragon swimming in a blue sea.

"Go!" Wu Qi's face revealed an expression of excitement after his fist moved about. He suddenly raised his hand and directed the lightning bolts surrounding the Astral Thunder, throwing them towards the place where Lin Bai and the rest had harvested the Heavenly Thunder Slash.

In this situation, Wuzhi Qi was like a demon god that could support the heavens and earth. His attitude made people's hearts beat even faster. Seeing Wuzhi Qi's actions, Ninth Master Qin's eyes radiated with light. Everything he saw today not only broadened his horizons, it also made him realize how big the world was. The scene of Wuzhi Qi and the divine lightning fighting also brought him endless benefits.

He felt that he was countless times closer to the threshold of the Upper Sky Realm. He was only one step away from entering it.

BOOM! The Astral Thunder that was filled with the aura of lightning landed on the burnt peach trees with a loud bang. As if it was boiling oil, the surrounding area of the peach trees suddenly lit up and then quickly dissipated. However, on the thick branches, a few small green leaves were blooming, as if it was rejuvenating.

The lightning dispersed, and the essence of thunder dissipated. No one could have imagined that the incomparably violent Astral Thunder Tribulations would be easily overcome with such ease. Furthermore, the Gale Thunder that contained the anger of the Heavenly Dao was played around with by Wu Qi like a toy in the palm of his hand.

Ka-cha! * However, the lightning essence scattered. The pill in Lin Bai's hand suddenly began to gather bits and pieces of lightning essence around it. The lightning essence emitted from within was extremely pure. If he took this pill, he would surely have the magical effect of clearing the bones and cleansing the marrow.

"Heavens, if it wasn't for Elder Chen, I really want to taste this pill!" Staring at the glittering pill, Zhang Sanming could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. He then looked at Lin Bai and said, "Junior brother, see if you can break this pill apart later, and leave me even a little bit of the powder. I really want to try it."

But as the sound of his voice faded, Lin Bai showed no reaction at all. His face was as calm as an old monk, unperturbed.
