"Boom, boom, boom ~"
Another five days passed by. Thunderbolts kept striking down. Since Lu Li was in closed-door cultivation, he had no time to tend to his wounds. His injuries were getting worse and worse. If this went on, his source of life would be destroyed.
Lu Li kept his eyes closed. Apart from the slight tremble when he was struck by thunderbolts, there was no expression on his face. He didn't do anything either. He just floated in midair like a dead body.
"Boom, boom ~"
The number of thunderbolts suddenly increased to two. Lu Li was even more emotionless now because the skin on his face was burnt. He couldn't move even if he wanted to.
Lu Li was in a dangerous situation. It was highly likely that he would die at this rate.
But he still didn't do anything. He didn't even take any healing pellets, let alone try to heal himself.
Another day passed by. The number of thunderbolts had increased to three. Lu Li finally opened his eyes. His eyes were glowing with excitement.
After such a long time, he finally succeeded in carving the Formation with the energy of thunderbolts.
He had built one Thunder Gathering Formation and 10 Storage Formations. The Clustering Formation was carved into the bones in his chest. It was integrated with his bones and could not be separated.
He had built the 10 Storage Formations in 10 acupoints. He had tried several times just now. The energy of thunderbolts would be absorbed by the Thunder Gathering Formation as soon as it entered his body.
Then the energy of thunderbolts would be separated and injected into the 10 Storage Formations.
"Boom, boom, boom ~"
Three bolts of thunderbolts kept striking down, but they could not hurt Lu Li any more.
As soon as the thunderbolts entered his body, they would be absorbed by the Thunder Gathering Formation and stored in the 10 acupoints.
"Okay!"
Lu Li was overjoyed to make sure that the Formation was working after a while.
He took some healing pellets and healed himself.
While he was healing, Lu Li continued to build more Formation. He needed to build 720 Storage Formations in his body in order to store enough energy of thunderbolts and … use the energy of thunderbolts to strengthen his body.
That was right!
After the energy of thunderbolts entered his acupoints, it would transform them, making them stronger and strengthening his body.
At the moment, Lu Li could feel his body was strengthening. It was slow but with time, his body would grow stronger.
Most importantly, once all 720 acupoints were successfully modified, the speed of his physical body's improvement would greatly increase.
Lu Li had forgotten that he was still in the Heaven's Tribulation, that the armies of demons were still attacking from the Divinity, and that many people were worried about him.
He was engrossed in the modification process. More accurately, he was engrossed in adding more arrays to his body!
He was setting up an array in his body!
If this matter were to spread out, it would definitely cause an uproar in the Immortal Realm. After all, this kind of behavior was too strange and too strange.
If it were not for Emperor Zi, Lu Li would not have dared to act recklessly.
Time passed by quickly. Five thunderbolts had struck down, but Lu Li's skin had recovered. It was as smooth as a baby's.
Even his hair and beard began to grow. Those terrifying lightning bolts that struck his body were unable to cause him any harm.
Lu Li quickly built the Thunder Storage Formation in his acupoints. Practice makes perfect. Now, he could build three formations in a day.
However, there were too many acupoints in the body. It would take at least half a year to set them all up.
"Half a year. It should be fine!"
Lu Li remembered that the armies of demons would not disperse at the moment. The three ten-winged demons would lead the armies and attack slowly. In this way, it would take at least several years for them to conquer the Divinity.
Therefore, half a year was not a problem. If Lu Li did not have powerful abilities, he would not be able to do anything even if the armies of demons were going to wipe out the human race.
Lu Li forgot about everything else and sped up his work. As time went by, more and more thunderbolts struck down. Lu Li's body was growing stronger and faster.
As soon as all the thunderbolts entered his body, they would be absorbed by the Thunder Storage Formation and then dispersed to the Thunder Storage Formation.
The energy of thunderbolts in the Thunder Storage Formation would nourish his acupoints and body. It would also replenish the Thunder Storage Formation. A cycle would be formed.
Three months had passed …
Lu Li was still building the formations on the acupoints, but some people were in despair!
Pan Yuqin had not cultivated recently. She sat listlessly all day, as if she had lost her soul.
In three months, the armies of demons had wiped out more than a dozen prefectures. Wherever the armies of demons went, no human warriors or armies dared to stop them.
The only thing Pan Yuqin and the others could do was to teleport humans away to the west or north as soon as possible.
Ling Qingyan was not in a good mood as well. She seemed to be calm, but she hardly smiled recently.
Usually, Heaven's Tribulation would last one or two months. However, Lu Li had been gone for four or five months. If it were not for the fact that something unexpected happened, then there would only be one outcome — Lu Li's soul would be dormant and he might never wake up again.
Ling Qingyan had been through the Heaven's Tribulation and she knew very well how horrifying the Tribulation of Mind and Soul was. She almost couldn't make it back.
Lu Li was young and he was not mature enough. He had too many concerns and attached great importance to emotions. It was the most dangerous for a person like him to go through Heaven's Tribulation.
But Ling Qingyan did not go up to check. If someone who was not going through the Heaven's Tribulation went up, the Heaven's Tribulation would be doubled. She might not be able to come down even if she went up.
More importantly … it would be pointless for her to go up. If Lu Li's soul was dormant, she would only bring his body back.
"The army of demons is coming. Let's evacuate and go to the Longevity Mountain to the west of the City of Divinity!"
Ling Qingyan waved her hand and made up her mind after some thoughts.
Lu Li would come back sooner or later. If he could not, it would be pointless for them to wait here.
"Okay!"
Pan Yuqin sighed. She stood up and went to deliver the order.
She had been holding on to Lu Li's jade talisman of life. She was worried that one day, the jade talisman would … break.
Soon, everything was arranged. Orders were passed down. The scouts began to leave. Ling Qingyan and Pan Yuqin packed up. They looked up at the sky at the same time and then left through the Teleportation Formation.
In the valley near the Snow Moon Temple, Astro Emperor and Blood Emperor were still playing chess. Blood Emperor could not sit still any longer.
He and Lu Li were not destined to be master and disciple, but they shared a bond. It had been a long time and Lu Li had not come back. Naturally, Blood Emperor was worried.
"Astro Emperor!"
Blood Emperor threw away a chess piece and said in a fit of pique, "Go and have a look at that punk. We can't continue."
"Ha, ha, why should I?"
Astro Emperor smiled. He waved his hand in the air and a picture appeared — in the picture, Lu Li was still floating in the air, safe and sound. Dozens of thunderbolts were striking at him, but he was fine. He floated in the air peacefully, like a baby sleeping soundly.
"How, how …"
Blood Emperor was stunned. He pointed at Lu Li but could not say a word.
