While Luo Xiu and the System were discussing matters, the situation on the Battlefield of Gods and Demons changed again. Although Xiao Yu controlled the terrifying river and rushed directly into the spatial crack, the spatial crack did not disappear.
However, the space did not disappear because of this. Instead, as the river water poured in, the spatial crack continued to expand. Waves of terrifying and sharp killing intent spread out in all directions from the spatial crack. It was both valiant and terrifying.
Then, without waiting for Xiao Yu to react, the powerful and strange black lightning instantly descended. It was as if it had a target and headed straight for Xiao Yu. It was so fast that he did not have any time to react. Bolt after bolt of lightning struck his body directly.
Seeing this scene, the Devouring Heaven Emperor and Luo Xiu were stunned, and then everyone was shocked.
Obviously, Xiao Yu was being targeted. The reason why they opened the spatial crack further was to let the Heavenly Dao sense the aura on Xiao Yu's body at this moment, and then send down the Heavenly Tribulation to punish him.
What a good plan to kill with a borrowed knife. Xiao Yu had directly hit the muzzle of the gun, and the terrifying thing was that he had no choice but to take it head-on.
Now, the scene had fallen into a strange silence. Both the Devouring Heaven Emperor and Xiao Yu felt panic in their hearts at this moment.
If this plan was targeted at them, then even if they had all kinds of tricks up their sleeves, they would not be able to escape from this terrifying plan of removing the firewood from under their cauldron.
In the void, one black lightning bolt after another seemed to be endless, and the sky was filled with terrifying lightning.
The terrifying destructive power brought by the black lightning even caused the building behind Xiao Yu to tremble slightly.
If it weren't for the hazy light shield surrounding the building, the building would have been destroyed by the terrifying thunderbolts. However, even so, the powerful destructive power of these thunderbolts still made the energy light dim a lot.
No one knew when it started, but dark clouds started to appear in the sky one after another. That spatial crack seemed to connect the Battlefield of Gods and Demons to the outside world. Boundless and powerful pressure of Heaven and Earth descended upon this world. The Battlefield of Gods and Demons, which had been extremely peaceful for millions of years, was broken at this moment. Powerful and strange lightning swept across all directions.
All kinds of evil Ghost Qi that originally filled the Battlefield of Gods and Demons disappeared under this powerful Heavenly Tribulation.
At the same time, the Devouring Heaven Emperor, Zhang Tianshi, Die Hua Fairy, and the remaining people who did not attack Xiao Yu all hid far away, waiting for the situation to develop. At this moment, everyone, including the Devouring Heaven Emperor, looked at Xiao Yu with eyes full of pity.
Especially the Devouring Heaven Emperor, he knew very well that Xiao Yu's current strength was simply shocking.
The powerful cultivation he had displayed before had already caused the entire Battlefield of Gods and Demons to tremble.
However, in the current situation, his powerful combat strength and cultivation were exposed to the Laws of the Heavenly Dao of this world. The consequences were obvious.
For the sake of the Heavenly Dao's fair operation, this world simply could not allow such a powerful individual to appear. Therefore, only destruction awaited him.
Whether it was Xiao Yu or the Devouring Heaven Emperor, they were well aware of the situation. The reason the person hiding behind the scenes did this was to exhaust Xiao Yu's strength to the greatest extent. Even if he could not use the power of the Heavenly Tribulation to kill him, he wanted to completely cripple him.
The powerful fighting strength that Xiao Yu had displayed before had already made the world unfair, especially in the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. Xiao Yu's powerful strength was simply a bug.
With his valiant strength, if he really found that thing, Xiao Yu would not have to hesitate at all. He could instantly slaughter everyone and take it for himself.
Therefore, the person who schemed against Xiao Yu clearly saw that his attack was steady, accurate, and ruthless. It was simply a one-hit kill. Even if these thunderbolts could not kill Xiao Yu on the spot, they would still greatly reduce his strength.
Because only in this way could these forces have a chance to gain a foothold when they sent more people down. Otherwise, no matter how many people came, they would just be delivering food to Xiao Yu.
It was likely that the person who attacked Xiao Yu had been targeted when Xiao Yu had just fought with the Phoenix Clan.
The terrifying Heavenly Tribulation was still ongoing. At this moment, Xiao Yu was no longer as strong and domineering as before. The strange river that he had commanded to soar into the sky had now returned to his side and turned into a powerful water dragon. It circled around him and continuously absorbed the powerful Heavenly Tribulation.
However, the Heavenly Tribulation was extremely destructive, especially in this kind of Battlefield of Gods and Demons where there was no light. It was originally filled with evil Ghost Qi. At this moment, because of Xiao Yu's Heavenly Tribulation, the originally wandering strange energy in this area had all turned into nothingness.
All of this weakened the power of Xiao Yu's means a lot, especially when his river was struck by lightning. The only thing that could completely escape the attack was the long sword in his hand. Other than that, everything else was targeted by the Heavenly Tribulation.
When Xiao Yu struck down the Heavenly Tribulation again, the water dragon that circled around him was less than half of the previous one. However, Xiao Yu was now panting and looked like a lamp that had run out of oil. The Devouring Heaven Emperor felt his scalp tingle when he saw this.
In just over ten hours, Xiao Yu was originally at a disadvantage. Then, he killed all the enemies and ended up in a miserable state of being surrounded and killed by the Heavenly Tribulation. While the Devouring Heaven Emperor was overwhelmed, he also deeply realized how big the gap was between the power he had now and those who were truly powerful.
At the same time, Luo Xiu, who had been paying attention to the situation outside through the detection of the system, also had an inexplicable expression at this moment.
He knew very well that if this continued, Xiao Yu would definitely be killed by the Heavenly Tribulation.
However, this was not what Luo Xiu wanted to see. Not to mention other things, just the huge Heavenly Tribulation that he had attracted at this moment was an incomparably huge temptation for Luo Xiu, who urgently needed to replenish his strength.
Needless to say, in this strange situation, if he could lend Xiao Yu a hand, this old guy would probably remember him for the rest of his life.
Not to mention, the corpses of the phoenixes in the old guy's hands were of great use to Luo Xiu. If he could really get these corpses, Luo Xiu's Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art might be able to take another step forward.
At this moment, Luo Xiu seemed a little hesitant. On one hand, it was because his injuries had not fully recovered. On the other hand, he was not sure if he would be besieged by others if he really went out.
After all, he was indeed a little unusual. Previously, he was sneak attacked, his chest was broken, and even his heart was pierced. Now, he could still appear alive and well. If this was known by others, then his end would not be much better than Xiao Yu's.
Therefore, now Luo Xiu was already looking around to see if the people who attacked him before were still here. If they were really still here, then Luo Xiu would have to make a good plan.
After looking around, Luo Xiu didn't find any other abnormalities, so he quietly came out of the inner world. Then, without waiting for the others to notice anything unusual, Luo Xiu took a big stride and suddenly plunged into the area where Xiao Yu was undergoing the tribulation.
Then, the endless tyrannical lightning in the sky seemed to have found a target to break through. Endless power filled the Heavens and Earth. At this moment, the huge and strange world seemed to be completely exposed. More and more powerful black lightning constantly appeared in the space crack. In the end, the color of the lightning changed from the original black to a mix of purple and black.
More than half of the terrifying lightning that struck down was forcefully guided over by Luo Xiu. The system in his mind used a special channel to convert all of them into backup energy for the system. At this moment, everyone who saw this scene was dumbfounded.
Even the Devouring Heaven Emperor, who knew about Luo Xiu's heaven-defying methods, felt his scalp go numb when he saw this scene. The strength that Luo Xiu displayed now was not something that he could imagine.
At the same time, with Luo Xiu's help, although the power of the Heavenly Tribulation was still strong, the pressure that Xiao Yu had to bear had decreased a lot.
Most importantly, Luo Xiu's aura was constantly rising. A powerful and terrifying suction force erupted from his body. More and more lightning was absorbed and refined by him. It was as if his body had turned into a black hole. All the energy that came in contact with him was devoured by him.
Just when everyone thought that Xiao Yu had escaped this disaster, an even more powerful and terrifying aura suddenly descended from the space crack. Then, before anyone could react, one after another, dazzling red lightning streaked across the void and directly bombarded Luo Xiu's body. There was no warning at all. Even the water dragon that was still revolving around Xiao Yu's body became less energetic at this moment.
As time passed, the terrifying and mysterious lightning streaked across the void as if it wanted to destroy everything. It directly headed straight for Luo Xiu. At the same time, even more red lightning streaked across the void. It was terrifying, mysterious, and unfathomable.
As more and more lightning descended, Luo Xiu's originally relaxed expression became much more serious. Even with the diversion of the system in his mind, he still had to bear the powerful numbness brought about by the lightning attacks. If he hadn't been injured before, this numbness wouldn't have been a big deal. However, as time passed, Luo Xiu's body became charred black, especially at his chest area. The time that the black lightning stayed in Luo Xiu's body became longer and longer as his body weakened.
Alarmed, Luo Xiu didn't dare to hesitate. He looked up at the sky and saw that the blood-red lightning in the sky had become denser than before. On the contrary, the black lightning had become less frequent.
At this moment, Xiao Yu had already activated all her defenses. She clenched her teeth and persevered without a care. Luo Xiu was secretly anxious in his heart. If this continued, although he could protect himself, it was hard to say for Xiao Yu's safety.
From the instantaneous change, it could be seen that the person who caused all this seemed to be able to control this Heavenly Tribulation. It wasn't something that an ordinary person could do. What made Luo Xiu even more curious was what kind of power would actually want to kill Xiao Yu regardless of the consequences.
Even Luo Xiu, the person who helped, was targeted. Although this red lightning was also a kind of energy, Luo Xiu wanted to turn this energy into his own life force.
Unless he could find a safe place and refine it one by one, otherwise, even with the help of the system in his mind, he wouldn't be able to do it. Therefore, as time passed, the red energy in his body became more and more vigorous, causing his mind to be in a trance. The power in the blood-red lightning didn't only target the physical body, but also the spiritual source in his mind.
In short, whether it was Luo Xiu or Xiao Yu, their current appearances were particularly miserable. Under such circumstances, the Devouring Heaven Emperor and the others could only smile bitterly. After all, they had never seen such a scene before. For Luo Xiu, he was now faced with a choice. If he chose to protect himself, he could just hide in his inner world and be safe.
However, if he really wanted to protect Xiao Yu, he would really have to act as a lightning rod. Absorbing all of Xiao Yu's power was not enough. He had to devour all of Xiao Yu's power. Only in this way could he avoid an even more powerful Heavenly Tribulation.
"System, this is troublesome. If this continues, I really don't know how long I can hold on."
Seeing that Xiao Yu was still holding on, Luo Xiu couldn't help but grit his teeth and ask the system in his mind helplessly.
There was nothing he could do. Right now, there were only these two choices in front of him, and to Luo Xiu, all of this made him feel a little awkward. If he had known earlier that this would happen, he wouldn't have come out so rashly.
It was too late to regret now. If he exposed the inner world now, what awaited him would definitely be a terrifying lightning that was a hundred times more powerful than now.
Therefore, he could only place his hopes on the system in his mind and see if the system had any other way to solve the problem.
If he continued to persevere, even if he could still persevere, Xiao Yu would definitely be killed directly because of this.
"If this goes on, there won't be any problems with this system. It's just that the host will have to suffer a little. If the host can obtain the replenishment of this power, then this host will have no worries. Even if the host wants to increase his cultivation again, this system will have hundreds of ways to help you do so."
Of course, the premise is that you can hold on. Let's not talk about other things first. Just the fact that you don't know how many lightning bolts will strike you next, you have to be fully prepared.
At the very least, you have to hold on until your physical body can no longer bear it. "
The system's answer made Luo Xiu heave a sigh of relief. At the same time, he secretly gritted his teeth. In this situation, he had no other choice but to continue holding on.
