Before his palm could land, Qin Xiaoxiao and Bai Nianchen switched positions directly.
Daoist Bai, his upper body bare and his muscles bulging, heroically raised his right arm.
"Boom!"
"Pfft—"
A mouthful of blood sprayed out, and a large pit was created centered around Bai Nianchen!
"Holy crap, that's… terrifying…"
The Primordial Violet Qi was scattered. It was at this moment that Li Qingyun finally arrived.
"Daoist! I'll go first!"
Floating in the sky, it was as if some shackle on Li Qingyun's body had broken.
His Golden Core shattered, transforming into a vast ocean of spiritual energy.
Then it began to gather again…
For a genius with heaven-defying talent breaking through from the Golden Core to the Nascent Soul stage, how powerful would the lightning tribulation be?
Dark clouds immediately gathered in the sky. The higher a genius's aptitude, the more terrifying the lightning tribulation they would face when breaking through realms.
They would even face lightning strikes for breaking through a minor realm, because for the Heavenly Dao, possessing such powerful talent meant enduring trials far more arduous than ordinary people.
However, these trials disallowed any outside help. If anyone interfered…
"Rumble!!"
Thick bolts of lightning descended from the heavens, making the entire world seem like an ocean of lightning. 138 Reading Network
The target was, of course, Li Qingyun. And Lamo, in his [Demon Body Sacrificing to Heaven] state, also felt a searing pain on his skin.
He ignored it, wanting to kill the old Daoist first!
Up until now, he hadn't managed to kill any of the geniuses he wanted to. He felt like a lumbering game boss being toyed with. No matter what, he had to kill this innate Dao Body first!
However, the old Daoist also grinned.
"My apologies, this humble Daoist has also suppressed his cultivation for quite some time! Feel the lightning, beast!"
Another surge of immense spiritual energy gathered, accompanied by the sound of a Golden Core shattering. Bai Nianchen also began the process of forging his Nascent Soul.
Then, trapped between the lightning tribulations of two heaven-defying geniuses, Lamo began to wail in agony!
While Li Qingyun and Bai Nianchen were also suffering, Li Qingyun at least had the Enlightenment Tree and the essence of the Green Emperor to protect him. His self-healing ability was also very strong, so even with an amplified tribulation, Li Qingyun felt he could endure it!
As for Bai Nianchen, he shouted, "Bring the Four Symbols Spirits over!"
This formation was originally drawn by him. Although it was now being controlled by others, it still counted as resisting the lightning tribulation with his own power.
"Ah!! No!! How could this be!"
"Despicable humans!"
The lightning tribulation struck Lamo, leaving him with torn flesh and ruptured skin. Although he didn't have much flesh to begin with, these thick bolts of lightning caused Lamo immense pain!
Why was the lightning tribulation so difficult?
Naturally, it was because the lightning tribulation contained the might of the Heavenly Dao.
Lamo knew that if this continued, he would definitely be struck to death!
And for Li Qingyun and Bai Nianchen, who were at the center of the lightning storm, if he tried to approach them again, with his meager remaining life force, he would be utterly annihilated by the lightning before he could even kill them!
So he cast a ferocious gaze towards others.
Xiao Long, who was standing by doing nothing, suddenly felt an intense sense of crisis!
Lamo's scarlet eyes fixed on Xiao Long. This Chaos Body was the most talented among the remaining individuals, and also the weakest in cultivation!
"Kill!"
He roared, enduring the dense lightning, each strike causing him unbearable pain. But as long as he escaped the lightning tribulation area, he would still possess enough combat power to kill everyone outside.
"Bad… Bad!"
Now, all four formation spirits were being used by Bai Nianchen to resist the lightning tribulation.
And Li Qingyun was in the process of forging his Nascent Soul, unable to forcefully divert his attention to pursue.
"Senior Sea Dragon King! Save him!"
The Sea Dragon King's eyes flashed with intense light, and he roared, "Don't worry! I'm here!"
Ever since Li Qingyun and the others initiated the battle, the Sea Dragon King had been utterly dumbfounded. He was shocked by the series of actions by these juniors.
From beginning to end, he hadn't found any opportunity to make a move.
Their plan was meticulously crafted, with the highest-cultivation Li Qingyun and Bai Nianchen going first to probe.
Then, the second wave of attack placed a large number of buffs on Qin Xiaoxiao, who could unleash a short burst of power, followed by Luo Xiaowei, who possessed the [Sword Nurturing Gourd], attacking Lamo. This wave was a huge success. Although Qin Xiaoxiao and Luo Xiaowei quickly lost their combat effectiveness, they forced the opponent into his second form.
After that, the recovered Daoist Bai executed an Yin-Yang Reversal, not only saving Qin Xiaoxiao but also directly initiating their Plan B: undergoing tribulation on the spot and activating the electric shock!
They had prepared for months, and the success of these plans stemmed from their repeated training and trial-and-error outside.
The Sea Dragon King had initially thought he was a damage dealer, but instead, he had been slacking off the entire time!
Now that he finally had a chance to showcase himself, he was even a little happy!
However, beside him, a young man with a punk-like hairstyle called out to him, "Senior, please wait a moment!"
Liang Zifan took two steps forward. His task was simple: find an opportunity to unleash one skill!
Just one skill!
He formed hand seals, and for a moment, the lightning tribulation in the sky became even more violent.
Facing the charging black monster, his body erupted with dazzling lightning.
The thunderclouds churned. The lightning tribulation that was originally meant to strike Li Qingyun and Bai Nianchen was actually being drawn by Liang Zifan.
"Furious Thunder… Sky Split!"
This was an immortal technique! A true immortal technique!
The Sea Dragon King had been shocked too many times. He thought he wouldn't be surprised anymore, but he was still stunned!
As Liang Zifan's voice fell, the sky instantly split open!
Like a giant maw adorned with lightning fangs, it lunged towards Lamo!
"Boom!"
"No!!!"
Lamo let out another scream. This was the lightning tribulation that Liang Zifan had drawn.
He desperately wanted to escape, but he couldn't!
Did you think that was the end?
Zhang Xiaohu roared, "There's me too!"
A giant golden bead was smashed down from Lamo's head.
His eyes nearly spat fire, and he punched away the [Floating and Sinking Bead], but his hand was smashed and directly broken.
Lamo's steps became more and more staggering. He felt profound despair, and a sense of endless humiliation surged within him!
"How… how can I be… toyed with like this!"
Then Chen Xiaohan sneered and extended her right hand.
"Poison Burst!"
Lamo's eyes widened, and his body trembled. The meridians within his body began to explode violently, and a certain poison began to corrode his body!
Chen Xiaohan had chosen this moment when Lamo was at his weakest to detonate the poison within him. Otherwise, given the strength gap between them, this poison would have had no effect on Lamo.
The Sea Dragon King was dumbfounded: "Do… do I still need to make a move?"
