By the time this lightning tribulation passed, everyone here, whether they were peak level experts of the world or plain commoners?none of them would be spared!

This heartless bastard!

Who the hell chooses a place packed so densely with people to make a breakthrough?!

Moreover, the scale of this lightning tribulation is so horrifying!

This is seeking oneself?s own death and implicating others as well…

The lightning pillar blasted down, but the expected thunderous boom that should have followed actually did not arrive. This huge pillar of lightning seemed like a drop of water that fell into the ocean, disappearing without a trace. There wasn?t even a tiny bit of sound created…

What the hell was happening?

Huge question marks bloomed in everyone?s hearts.

That… lightning strike was clearly not fake ah… could it be that it was just a hollow shot? I?ve never even heard of such a thing before…

Following that, the second strike, third strike… The frequency at which the lightning struck became more dense, and the size of each lightning bolt was growing thicker and thicker as they fell from the sky unceasingly…

The entire land was shaking violently, and even the loose stones on the ground were skipping in a lively manner…

However, the booming sounds that should occur after the lightning bolts hit the ground actually did not appear at all…

?Heavens ah… just what is going on?? The person undergoing the tribulation actually has the ability to dissolve the lightning tribulation? How can this be!? He Zhi Qiu stood mutely by the window and watched the entire thing. His mind was completely mess right now. This was the only possible explanation, but… was there really such a thing?

Inside the city, at a certain location.

Three figures stood shoulder to shoulder atop the roof of an inn, staring at the lightning storm striking downwards crazily not far away. Everyone had serious expressions on their faces.

The person in the middle was dressed in a flowing white robe, delicate and gentle looking. This was Qiao Ying. Standing beside her on both sides, were two thin, middle aged men. They stood silently on the rooftop, not utilizing a single shred of Xuan Qi. However, the three of them all had extraordinary auras, like towering mountains.

?What is going on exactly? This is this really someone breaking through?? Qiao Ying muttered in a low voice, seemingly speaking to herself and also asking the two people beside her.

The two people?s faces turned complicated as they exchanged a glance. However, they did not say a single word. Because, even they didn?t dare to be certain of what was going on!

If all this commotion was caused by a single person breaking through, and the person even had the ability to dissolve the lightning without revealing himself… then, it was surely a little too ridiculous!

?I… think so?? The man on the left said with some doubt. His eyes that had always been clear and confident was suddenly filled with confusion and uncertainty. When he spoke those words, he even questioned himself in his heart. ?This… is it real… or not??

?Assuming… it?s a single person causing all this commotion…? The man on the right hesitated and said: ?Then, that person?s strength should not be too far away from the Nine Nether First Young Master from ten thousand years ago!

?Even the most risky tribulations we faced at the time of our breakthroughs were not one tenth the scale of this one!?

Qiao Ying exclaimed with shock. ?If that?s the case, this person?s strength would surpass ours by manifold! Even the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master does not have such a level of strength; for such a powerful expert, indeed, only the Nine Nether First Young Master can compare. Although the Nine Nether First Young Master is probably a little stronger, but in the current world, this person would have no rival!?

?Indeed, if there?s really only one person breaking through now, then that person?s strength… will truly be unrivalled in the current world; that person would be number one under the heavens, without a doubt!? The eyes of the two person grew more and more heated and agitated as they watched the lightning striking downwards madly.

Qiao Ying rubbed her eyes and looked at the two men beside her with disbelief on her face. Her cherry-like mouth was opened slightly, like a dumb chicken.

The two guardians beside her were already experts who stood at the very peak of this world! Was this still the legendary Heart Seal Sky Sword and Willful Wild Saber? This was too unbelievable!

In that moment, Qiao Ying even felt that these two might be imposters. Someone must have impersonated Sky Sword and Wild Saber to stand beside her!

Sky Sword, Wild Saber!

The two great guardians of the Heaven Saint Palace! The strengths of these two definitely were not inferior to even the Heaven Saint Palace?s palace lord?s peak experts!

Heart Seal Sky Sword, Cheng Yin Xiao; Willful Wild Saber, Qu Wu Hui!

These two were legends; two great legends of the Xuan Xuan Continent! The pride of the Xuan Xuan Continent!

Today, these two legendary characters were currently looking at the lightning storm with worshipful gazes, as though they were young school girls who suddenly saw the idol of their dreams!

Just who was this person undergoing the lightning tribulation?

Was it a human or a monster?

?It doesn?t matter if it?s a human or a monster. Whoever it is, they?re the undisputable number one under the heavens!? As if they had seen through Qiao Ying?s thoughts, the two of them concluded the conversation.

Far off in the blackness of the night, a dark figure as black as night rose up quietly. Under the illumination of the lightning flashes, this figure turned illusory, seemingly becoming one with the shadows.

This person was less than 15 zhang away from the heart of the lightning storm! This was exceedingly dangerous distance. As long as the range of the lightning strike was slightly expanded, this person would not even have a place to escape to!

Just who was this, to actually have the ability to get so close to this area, approaching the death zone?!

In this world, only one person would have the guts and ability to do that! And this was exactly that person!

The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master!

At this moment, he was carefully observing the core region of lightning and thunder. As he looked at the direction all the lightning bolts struck, his eyes grew complicated, and he murmured softly to himself: ?Just who is this person who attracted the Heavenly Tribulation and swallows it up? In this world, who has such great abilities??

The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master?s vision was undoubtedly much more sharp than most people?s! Although others were curious about why there weren?t any effects after the lightning bolts landed, they at best thought that the person undergoing the tribulation was neutralizing it before it could cause any damage. But no one had thought of any other possible explanations! Or rather, they didn?t dare to think in that direction!

But the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master who was watching at a close distance could clearly see that the lightning bolts had completely disappeared. They weren?t being neutralized… rather, they had been swallowed away!

Even more horrifying was that even at such a close distance, he still couldn?t see what was going on inside!

There was clearly only a single tree there!

The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master had an exceptionally complex look on his face at this moment; just by witnessing this powerful display had caused this aloof and proud number one lunatic under the heavens to feel truly convinced!

Regardless of who is inside, I will not be a match for him! I admit my inferiority!

But when his thoughts travelled in this direction, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master felt so depressed that he wanted to die!

Because he knew that he couldn?t do the same thing as this person!

Everytime he broke through, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master could only rely on the strength of his own body to forcefully endure the lightning tribulation. He would find a spot away from people, at the peak of an unlucky mountain. After every breakthrough, his entire body would be filled with injuries, and the unlucky mountain would be flattened!

But this mysterious expert before him could not only pass through the tribulation with ease, he could even swallow the tyrannical energies of the heavens without a single noise!

What kind of heavenly gap was that?

The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master watched the falling lightning dumbly, seemingly forgetting to hide himself.

As the silver lightning danced through the sky, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master?s solitary figure was also discovered by the experts of the three Holy Lands!

?It?s him!?

?Yes! It?s actually that lunatic, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master!?

?He?s the most important target of our mission this time and also the most frightening one!?

Everyone?s eyes were widened with shock as they looked at that figure.

But with the power of heaven and earth raging around them, no one dared to make any rash moves.

Just like that, all the experts turned into rigid statues because of this extraordinary incident. Regardless of what enmity or hatred they had with each other, everything was in a temporary state of peace!

Only the thunderous booms that seemed to want to annihilate the world and the huge bolts of lightning fell continuously, seemingly without pause…

Streak after streak, bolt after bolt, dense as a heavy storm, striking endlessly with a frenzied manner at the mysterious expert!

Everyone?s heart thumped with great fear; whether they were Saint Emperors or Saints, everyone?s tongue was dry shocked.

What if… the person under that storm… was me?

All those experts did not even dare to think in that direction. But the more they didn?t dare to think, the more their thoughts could not help but wonder and imagine… Every time those thoughts rose up, they would be repressed immediately. At the same time, their bodies would tremble excitedly with battle intent…

Although the thunderous sounds were loud and the energy the clouds contained were shocking, it would eventually be exhausted. As the lightning fell unceasingly, it eventually weakened and disappeared completely. Finally, all the clouds swirled together and formed into a single giant eye…

A long rumbling rang out, and a bout of even more intense lightning poured down with the force of a waterfall!

?My god… Am I going crazy, or has the world gone crazy?!? A Saint level expert gasped aloud as his body trembled like a kite.

This sentence directly echoed everyone?s thoughts!

????????????

The most unbelievable thing was that this second round of lightning strikes actually lasted from dawn to midday, carrying on until night! The entire thing had gone on for a full day!

The lightning bolts grew thicker and thicker, and the force of their strikes grew heavier and heavier; but in the end, it still failed to create any destruction!

Even the tree at the middle of it was still standing tall and straight, without a single bit of anomaly.

Everyone stood with their mouths gaping like wooden chickens. For an entire day, they watched like that without eating, drinking, pissing, or even blinking!

These people included the three Saint Emperors, Zhan Mu Bai, Hai Wu Ya, and He Zhi Qiu, and over 40 Saint experts. It included Qu Wu Hui, Cheng Yin Xiao, Qu Wu Hui, and… the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master!

All of them felt as if they were sleepwalking, and their expressions were vacant and frail.

Finally, the thunderous sounds stopped, and the lightning vanished!

In a few short moments, the densely packed clouds in the sky also dissipated completely.

At this point, everyone finally raised their heads, and looked up… The sky was completely cloudless for ten thousand li; stars dotted the night sky, as far as the eye could see, and a bright moon hung high in the sky!

?This lightning tribulation had actually persisted for an entire day!? Cheng Yin Xiao gasped lowly. All of a sudden, his body flashed and vanished!

In that moment, he was going forward to meet this senior who?d successfully broken through.

Tonight, no matter what, he must take a look at this transcendental senior with his own eye!

There was only that simply goal. There weren?t any evil intents, or any selfish motives. It was just a pure desire from his heart to meet this person!

That was all!

Perhaps, apart from this opportunity, he would never have the chance to meet, or even hear anything about this person… If he missed it this time, it would be the most regrettable thing in his life!

Qu Wu Hui realized this as well, and followed closely behind him. In is eyes, there was only a fervent desire.

Right behind him was Qiao Ying.

Even Zhan Mu Bai and the rest were also rushing towards that location madly.

However, the fastest one among them was still the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master!

After all, he?d been the closest to the site!

He was only a mere dozen zhang away!

Before his movement technique was truly unleashed, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master had already arrived under the tree.

Empty!

The weren?t even the slightest trace of a shadow!

The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master stretched out his hand and touched the tree?s bark, his eyes blazing with emotion.

Sou, sou, sou…

Tens of experts appeared on all sides, forming a large encirclement.

They looked around the area silently and looked at the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master silently.

But right now in everyone?s heart, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master was not the main character anymore.

The main character had disappeared… or perhaps… unless…

This tree was the one that had been breaking through??

Was it this tree that had lived for an unrecorded number of years?

Everyone was stuck in an awkward situation, not knowing what they should do. Jun Mo Xie and Mei Xue Yan had already escaped into the Hongjun Pagoda long ago. He still hadn?t forgotten that a perverse character like Qiao Ying with her All Seeing Eye still existed in this world.

Although his cultivation had improved greatly, whether or not it was enough for him to hide from the All Seeing Eye wasn?t something that he had much confidence with. Moreover, even if he could avoid it, Mei Xue Yan had only begun learning the Yin Yang Escape Art a short while ago; her understanding over it was still very weak. Thus, Young Master Jun had directly brought her into the Hongjun Pagoda to rest…

Let these guys be shocked for a while first. Besides, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master has already appeared. If they could fight a round first, that would be a great thing. There?s no way I?ll reject such a good thing!
