The three drops of divine water kept moving around, chasing each other, forming a cycle. It would be interesting to watch it when one had nothing to do.
But if you kept thinking about it in your mind, you would feel sick, go crazy, and go crazy.
It had been the time for two incense sticks to burn, but Lu Li felt it had been two years. He looked awful and ferocious. He was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
He had been telling himself to forget everything, to forget about the three drops of divine water and to blank out his soul. But he could not do it no matter what.
Blood Evil King didn't send him any message or offer him any help.
Maybe, as far as Blood Evil King was concerned, if Lu Li could not survive this Tribulation of Mind and Soul, then there was nothing he could do.
"What to do? What to do?
What to do? "
After the time for one incense stick to burn, Lu Li felt it had been another year. His mind was filled with the same three words, trying to figure out how to get out of this predicament.
He had thought of many ways, everything he could think of, but he still could not get rid of the images of the three drops of divine water from his mind.
He had given it up. He didn't think he could do it.
His mind began to wander. He thought about his experience in the Endless Ruins, how Lu Ling and Lu Li were taken away, how he overcame all difficulties and failed on the verge of success at the Recruitment Ceremony.
He thought about everything he went through in the Yama Mountain and how Emperor Wu's attitude toward him changed.
"Follow your heart and follow nature!"
All of a sudden, Lu Li remembered the words Emperor Wu gave him. His soul trembled.
Emperor Wu told him on purpose for the sake of Lu Li's Tribulation.
Lu Li had forgotten about it. Only now did he remember.
He repeated the words to himself several times, but he was confused.
What did the words mean?
Follow your heart?
Follow nature?
Was it telling him not to go against it by force and to follow his heart?
The thing was, he had to forget about the three drops of divine water. He had to get rid of the images of the three drops of divine water from his mind. If he didn't, then the images of the three drops of divine water would stay in his soul. Sooner or later, he would lose his mind and his soul would collapse.
"What do they mean by follow your heart and follow nature?
What is the profound meaning of these words?! "
Lu Li murmured to himself for a while. His soul trembled again. At this moment, he seemed to understand — why did he have to get rid of the images of the three drops of divine water from his mind?
So what if these three drops of water made him think about it?
Could these three drops of water devour his soul?
If he was strong, then let him be strong. Wouldn't it be fine as long as he ignored him?
Wasn't this the Dao of Nature?
The more he cared about it, the more important it would be, and the more likely it would be to have a demonic barrier.
If he didn't care about it, then everything would just be a fleeting cloud. What did it have to do with him?
At this moment, Lu Li was suddenly enlightened. His tense soul relaxed. Even though he was still thinking about the three drops of water, Lu Li didn't care anymore.
Just like the omnipresent wind outside, it could blow however it liked. Just like the clouds in the sky, the clouds were natural and there was no need to pay too much attention to them.
Gradually, Lu Li became more and more relaxed. He went from the state of forgetfulness to the state of enlightenment.
Slowly, the three drops of water in his mind gradually disappeared, and finally, his mind became blank.
"Buzz!"
Right at that moment, Lu Li opened his eyes. He saw Wang Ningxue and Hu Shimeng who were worried, Guan Qianqiu who was still on the Tribulation Platform, and the onlookers. Lu Li put on a smile.
He knew that he had passed the Tribulation of Mind and Soul, the most difficult and horrifying Heaven's Tribulation.
"Good!"
"Well done, Brother Lu!"
"Lu Li has passed the Tribulation of Mind and Soul …"
Wang Ningxue and Hu Shimeng smiled as well. There was still one more Heaven's Tribulation but it shouldn't be a problem. The chances of Lu Li passing the Tribulation were 70 to 80 percent.
"Congratulations, Little Lu!"
Finally, the Blood Evil Emperor said, "Don't blame me for not helping you. You must face the fifth and sixth Heaven's Tribulation by yourself or else you will never reach the Emperor Realm.
You will be a piece of crap before you reach the Emperor Realm. How can you grow without experiencing some things? "
Lu Li understood this. He didn't blame the Blood Evil Emperor. With a gentle smile, Lu Li replied, "Lord Evil Emperor, I understand. Thank you for your concern."
"Have a good rest!
The last Heaven's Tribulation is coming! "The Blood Evil Emperor said no more questions after that.
Lu Li took two pellets and closed his eyes to rest. The clouds were gathering. The last God's Tribulation was about to come.
After the Heaven's Tribulation, Lu Li would be a warrior of the fifth tribulation. His abilities in all aspects would be enhanced.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
A bolt of seven-colored thunderbolt came down from the sky. This thunderbolt was the combination of the previous three Heaven's Tribulations.
There were thunderbolts, flames, and air of primordial chaos. There was another kind of energy that could attack the soul, which was quite intimidating.
Lu Li used the Dragon Wrestling Skill and the Heaven Armor Skill to resist. Surges of horrifying energy entered Lu Li's body and some entered his soul.
Lu Li used the Soul Devouring Skill of Ferocious Beasts to defend against the soul attack. At the same time, he used the Trace of Great Dao to absorb the remaining energy. Not only did he have to defend against the energy, he had to find a way to absorb it …
The Heaven's Tribulation was powerful. Lu Li's body was injured at once, but it couldn't kill him.
His skin and muscles were charred, which was not a big deal for Lu Li.
Lu Li also withstood the soul attack. The Soul Devouring Skill of Ferocious Beasts was powerful. All the soul attacks were devoured.
After the devouring, the soul attacks could be transformed into soul energy to strengthen the soul.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom!"
More and more thunderbolts came down. Lu Li's injuries were getting worse. But those outside could tell that Lu Li's injuries were not fatal. As long as he could survive the Heaven's Tribulation, nothing else mattered.
When the ninth bolt of Heaven's Tribulation came down, Lu Li was charred. He was barely breathing as if he could pass away at any time.
But Wang Ningxue and Hu Shimeng were smiling.
Lu Li had passed the Heaven's Tribulation successfully. He had become a warrior of the fifth tribulation.
"Swish ~"
In the end, a bolt of purple thunderbolt came down. This time, it was not to attack Lu Li, but to enhance him.
Lu Li's wounds were recovering quickly. Both his soul and body were transformed, and he was growing stronger.
A moment later, the charred skin on Lu Li's skin peeled off, revealing his baby-like skin. Wang Ningxue turned around at once. Lu Li put on a robe with a big smile. He flew out from the platform and landed in front of Hu Shimeng and Wang Ningxue.
"Congratulations, Brother Lu!"
Hu Shimeng patted Lu Li's shoulder and said, "You have passed the fifth tribulation. You can take the sixth one and you have a chance to take the seventh one.
Given your abilities, I think you can defeat an average lord.
Even if Guan Qianqiu has passed the sixth tribulation, he can do it as well.
Ha, ha, ha! "
Lu Li smiled but said nothing. He turned to Guan Qianqiu and suddenly said, "Young Master Guan, I have passed the Heaven's Tribulation. Now, it is up to you …"
