In the backyard of the Snow Moon Temple, Ling Qingyan was lying on her side on a rattan chair. Her perfect figure was even more exaggerated because she was lying on her side. If a naive young man were here, he would have a nosebleed just by looking at her.
She was caressing the little white spiritual pet on her chest with one hand and eating a spiritual fruit with the other. She looked at Pan Yuqin who was sitting cross-legged next to her and asked, "Qin girl, how many days has it been?"
Pan Yuqin opened her eyes and said, "Twenty-three days!"
Ling Qingyan looked into the sky and murmured with a frown, "He should be dead by now or he has passed the Heaven's Tribulation. What is he doing up there?"
Pan Yuqin had a jade talisman of life in her hand. The jade talisman was not broken, which meant that Lu Li was still alive.
She shook her head and said, "I don't know. He must have run into some difficulties and is stuck in one of the Heaven's Tribulations."
"I hope it is not the third one!"
Ling Qingyan sighed, "He can be saved if he is stuck in the first or second one. But if he is stuck in the third one, then nobody can save him.
The longer he is stuck in the third one, the more likely it is that his soul will be in silence. If his soul is in silence, then the Divinity … will be in danger. "
"Prince Yan!"
Pan Yuqin stood up, cupped her fists and said, "Can you go up and have a look?
If you can, please help him. "
"No, and I can't!"
Ling Qingyan said, "One can only go through the Heaven's Tribulations by himself. If someone else helps, it will be against the law of nature. Lu Li and I will be killed in an instant.
Nobody can help him or else there will be a lot of supreme warriors in the Divinity.
You, you're just too concerned! "
"Yes!"
Pan Yuqin forced a smile. She looked into the sky and murmured, "Can he come back?
How long will it take? "
"One month!"
Ling Qingyan looked into the sky as well and said, "If he cannot come back in a month, then he will never come back!"
…
There were many scouts around the Snow Moon Temple. Many of the best human scouts were gathered here.
However, what was interesting was that there was a huge mountain a thousand miles away from the Snow Moon Temple. Inside the mountain was a secluded valley, and inside the valley, there were two old men playing chess. However, none of these top-notch scouts were able to detect them.
Both of them were old men. One of them was a thin and hale old man, while the other looked like an enlightened old man. He even held a palm-leaf fan in his hand.
"Twenty-three days!"
The skinny old man looked at the old man holding a cattail leaf fan and said, "Star Emperor, don't you want to go up and have a look?
What if Lu Li died up there?
Since you are here, it means that you care about Lu Li. If so, why don't you help him? "
"Blood Emperor ah, you are still so persistent!"
Astro Sovereign stroked his long beard and said with a smile, "If I wanted to help him, I would have helped him in the Nine Realms.
Have you ever thought about what would have happened if I had helped him in the Nine Realms? "
"Help him in the Nine Realms?" Blood Emperor was surprised. He had never thought about this.
Blood Emperor put down a chess piece and said, "If I had helped Lu Li in the Nine Realms, helped him kill the Yan Family and unified the nine universes, would Lu Li have ascended so quickly?
Or, after he came to the Divinity, if I had helped him kill Yan Tiangang, God of Wings, and all his enemies, what would happen to Lu Li now?
What kind of abilities does he have now? "
"What …"
Blood Emperor was at a loss for words.
Astro Sovereign continued with a smile, "If Lu Li didn't go to the Tomb of King Luna, the Chamber of Relics, and the Craftsmen's Sect didn't hunt him down …
If he didn't go to the Land of Youyan, the Tomb of King Luna, or the Sea of Demons, could he have reached such a high level today?
Could he have improved so fast? "
Blood Emperor seemed to understand something. Astro Sovereign took a sip of tea and said, "There are many talented people in the world. There are some who are more talented than Lu Li.
Pan Yuqin, Luo Huang, and Zuo Qiuyan.
But how could Lu Li surpass them?
How could he become a warrior at the peak of the Divinity?
How could a flower in a greenhouse stand the blow of a storm?
How could an eagle that has not learned to spread its wings soar in the sky?
Sometimes, to help a person … may be to harm him!
Any powerful warrior that wants to stand at the top of the world must go through many trials and tribulations. Take the Slayer for example. How could he have created the Slayer's move without going through so much? "
"I understand now!"
The worry on Blood Emperor's face vanished. He nodded. "We can care about him but we cannot help him. Otherwise, we will be spoiling him through excessive enthusiasm."
"Yes!"
Blood Emperor stroked his beard. "Lu Li is one of the Seven Trials. He is destined to endure many hardships in his life. He will experience pain and trials that others cannot. He will either rise to the top or perish completely."
"What if …"
Blood Emperor thought for a while and asked a pointed question, "What will you do if Lu Li dies?"
"I have no choice!"
Astro Sovereign shook his head and sighed. "I can only take care of his family secretly and then … go to the next Seven Trials.
If he dies, it will prove that he is not the one I am looking for. It will prove that he is not qualified to take … "
Astro Sovereign said nothing else. Blood Emperor looked into the sky, waved his hand and said, "Okay. Let's get back to the game.
We will know in a month at most. Whether he can survive the Heaven's Tribulation or not will depend on whether he can come back in a month. "
…
Lu Li was still in closed-door cultivation. He did not know that many people were worried about him, nor did he know that the nine universes, Astro Sovereign and Blood Emperor had been paying attention to him.
He had been cultivating in the second Heaven's Tribulation for seven or eight days. As time went on, the frequency of thunderbolts became more and more frequent.
At first, there would be one every two to four hours. Now, it had been the time for every two incense sticks to burn.
Fortunately, he had been in the first Heaven's Tribulation for a long time. His physical body had improved.
Now, he could stand every thunderbolt that could hurt him. His body could recover fast as well. He could take some healing pellets every now and then.
Lu Li knew very well that the thunderbolts had sped up. He was not surprised.
Even if the second Heaven's Tribulation stayed still, it would become more and more horrifying as time went on. In a couple of days, there would be more thunderbolts. Later on, there might be more thunderbolts at the same time …
Lu Li had once again experienced the torment of his body being torn apart and healed. He was used to it. He was not in pain at all. Instead, he was excited.
Because!
He had spent so many days. Soon, he was going to use the energy of thunderbolts to carve the formation in his body.
As long as he could do that, he would be fine even if there were tens of thousands of thunderbolts, let alone several in a row …
Also, the more thunderbolts there were, the more energy of thunderbolts would be stored in his body.
The stronger his body was, the more powerful his defense would be. By then, he could even fight a ten-winged demon face to face!
