Chapter 672: Strongly Overcoming the Thunder Tribulation
Zhang Zhiwei stood on the top of the mountain behind him and looked up at the sky.
If the sky is compared to the sea, then now there are raging waves, the turbid waves are emptying, and a huge vortex appears on the "sea surface".
"Boom!"
There were constant thunder explosions in the sky, covering the thunder coming from Zhang Zhiwei's body. At the same time, the dark clouds became more and more gloomy and thicker, like a cloud mountain that would collapse in the next second.
As the dark clouds gathered and the thunder roared, a drop of rain fell on Zhang Zhiwei's eyebrows, and Zhang Zhiwei felt a faint pain in his eyebrows.
The tingling sensation did not come from the rain, but from something behind the rain.
This was a sharp sense of the gods warning that disaster was about to happen, so he reacted quickly.
The feeling of uneasiness became stronger and stronger. Zhang Zhiwei looked up at the sky with a solemn expression, and golden light floated around him. An indescribable terrifying aura spread out and rushed straight to the sky.
This action was like throwing a torch at a gunpowder barrel.
Above the sky, the air pressure seemed to drop suddenly, and the invisible pressure pushed down from top to bottom like a wall, almost making people breathless.
In this era, there are all kinds of animals in the back mountain of Longhu Mountain. Walking in it, you can hear the roar of beasts, the chirping of insects, the singing of birds and other sounds, especially at night, which almost never stop.
But at this moment, all the creatures in the back mountain have a sense of oppression that a disaster is coming, and they all stopped at the same time. For a time, the mountains and forests were silent, and the bamboos were retracted.
At the same time, in the farmland on the hillside of the back mountain, Lv Ci, the legendary hoeing demon of Longhu Mountain, was hoeing the land seriously.
Suddenly, he felt as if there was an invisible and immaterial thing in the air pressing down, pressing him out of the state of dual cultivation of sex and life.
"Fuck!"
Lv Ci was annoyed for a while, raised his hoe and looked around, thinking to himself, is the hypocrite playing tricks? If I find out, I must reward him with a few hoes.
But then, he found an old turtledove on the edge of the field, burying its head in the soil, shivering like a quail.
Not only that, the hair on his arms also stood up inexplicably, and his hedgehog-like hairstyle was even more upward.
"Huh?!"
Lv Ci felt uneasy and looked up at the sky, but saw a bright white light flashing before his eyes. For a moment, the sky and the earth were bright, and the white light filled his eyes.
Before his vision recovered, violent thunder followed, ringing in his ears, shaking his head.
"What's going on? It was cloudless just now, why did it thunder?"
In a panic, he stood with a hoe, trying to calm down.
Then, he moved his Qi to his eyes, causing his eyes to shine brightly, and his vision, which was temporarily lost due to the strong light, was restored, and the picture in his sight gradually became clear.
What came into his eyes was the mountaintop burning with raging fire after being struck by lightning.
On the top of the mountain, huge dark clouds were hanging upside down like a black volcano.
In the crater of the volcano, what was gushing out was not boiling magma, but blazing lightning.
Continuous thunders were ringing in the distance.
Lightnings were erupting from the "crater" and constantly bombarded the top of the mountain behind, making the raging fire there even more intense.
This horrific scene made Lu Ci stunned, and he couldn't help wondering why there was a sudden thunder, and it was still in the same place.
He looked at the landing point of the thunder, but was shocked to find that in the raging fire, there was a figure flashing, and the thunder in the sky was all striking at that figure.
A thought subconsciously popped up in Lu Ci's mind: "Which immortal is this up there...crossing the tribulation?"
Immediately, he picked up his beloved hoe and flew out.
For fear of alarming the heavenly being, Lu Ci did not rush to the top of the mountain, but jumped to the top of the highest tree near the top of the mountain, and then looked into the distance.
The dark clouds in the sky were still emitting lightning one after another, and the figure on the ground was also using means to fight against the lightning. The two sides collided and burst out dazzling white light.
This made Lu Ci unable to see the true face of the figure even if he stood at a high point. He only knew that the other party was very tall, just like Senior Brother Zhang.
"Huh?!" Lu Ci's heart suddenly skipped a beat, "As tall as Senior Brother Zhang? Could it be..."
As one of Zhang Zhiwei's little fans, he brought Zhang Zhiwei's image to the figure in the thunder tribulation, but there was no disobedience at all.
"If it was Senior Brother Zhang, it is not impossible!" Lu Ci muttered to himself.
At this thought, he wanted Lu Jin, the reckless man, to be next to him, so that the two could discuss it.
Unfortunately, this guy said that his master Zuo Ruotong taught him a unique skill, and he wanted to retreat to practice, so that he could learn it quickly and come to seek revenge on him. Moreover, after listening to Shaolin Fang's lecture on Buddhism in Tiantai Mountain, he also needed some time to think, so he has been in retreat these days.
In fact, Lu Ci also retreated for a day, but he was a reckless person and was not interested in Buddhism. The abbot's lecture on Buddhism did not inspire him much, so after only retreating for a day, he carried a hoe and went out. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, he could still witness this shocking scene.
Lu Ci was feeling sorry, and suddenly found that the figure actually moved. He faced the thunder, rose from the ground, and went straight to the sky.
Taking advantage of the interval between the flashing of the lightning, Lu Ci saw that the figure was surrounded by a faint golden light. During the ascent, the Qi under his feet surged, and a monster with a somewhat abstract outline appeared.
"Golden light, and that strange beast... I seem to have seen it somewhere?"
Lu Ci's heart trembled, and he hurriedly looked carefully.
I saw another thunder strike down, and the golden light flickered like a candle in the wind. The bright lightning illuminated some details of the strange beast. It turned out to be a huge lion with nine heads.
"Nine-headed lion... It's really Brother Zhang. What is Brother Zhang going to do? Is he going to transcend the tribulation and become an immortal?"
This conclusion made Lu Ci excited. He had an impulse to rush to the top of the mountain, but he was worried that his reckless behavior would interfere with Brother Zhang's "transcendence"!
After all, the continuous thunder in the sky was still very dangerous to him. If he was hit by one unexpectedly, he would be in danger of his life.
Lu Ci gathered his Ruyi Power at his feet and jumped between the treetops, trying to get closer so that he could see more clearly.
While jumping, he kept his eyes on Senior Brother Zhang who was "crossing the tribulation", fearing that he would miss any details.
Then, he saw Senior Brother Zhang stepping on the nine-headed lion, facing the thunder all the way, and actually rushed into the dark cloud in the sky that looked like an inverted volcano.
As he got closer, the thunder became more and more dense. Senior Brother Zhang had a big sword in his hand at some point, which cut off all the lightning that came.
However, the nine-headed lion under his feet was roaring continuously due to the aftermath of the lightning, and some parts were even torn apart.
This scene shocked Lu Ci. He and Lu Jin had fought against this lion together, and he knew the most about its power.
"Such a powerful nine-headed lion can't stand it?"
He stopped suddenly and didn't dare to get closer.
His current position was very close to the thunderstorm. If he moved forward, he would most likely be struck by lightning.
On the other hand, Zhang Zhiwei in the sky, even though he had climbed up to the top of the cloud and faced the thunderstorm at close range, did not stop for a moment. Instead, he rushed into the "crater" and disappeared.
Lv Ci was a little melancholy because he could not see Senior Brother Zhang. He was not worried that Senior Brother Zhang would be killed in the thundercloud, but he was melancholy that he could not see the shocking scene of Senior Brother Zhang's heavenly tribulation.
On the other side, in the private residence of the Successor Han Tianshi Mansion, Zhang Jingqing was dressed as plainly as an ordinary Taoist priest in the private residence of the Tianshi. He was uneasy tonight, so he got up in the middle of the night to draw talismans and calm his mind. Hearing the huge noise outside, he came to the window with a pen and looked up at the sky. Like Lv Ci, he also witnessed the scene just now.
Seeing the figure in the sky rushing into the thundercloud, Zhang Jingqing's heart tightened, and he subconsciously exerted force on his hand, and crushed the pen that he had treasured for many years.
He didn't care at all that his beloved item was damaged, he just looked at the horizon. His eyesight was much better than Lu Ci's, and he could vaguely see that in the extremely thick black, a golden light flashed and blasted open the bottom of the thundercloud.
"This kid..." Zhang Jingqing sighed deeply.
Not only him, but many people in the Tianshi Mansion noticed it and looked at the top of the back mountain.
After all, the sky was clear in other places, but the sky above the top of the back mountain was covered with thunderclouds and purple lightning. Even a fool could know what was going on.
However, at this time, the Taoists had all rested. When they were awakened by the thunder, they had missed the scene of Zhang Zhiwei ascending straight to the sky and didn't know the whole picture.
Therefore, when they suddenly saw this shocking scene, everyone's reactions were different.
Some people were sighing that the sky and the earth were connected for no reason, and this was a great disaster in the world.
Some people were guessing that this was not the scene caused by the Tianshi practicing the mysterious skills and the Five Thunders Law?
After all, it is well known in Longhu Mountain that the complete thunder method can trigger heavenly thunder, because the old man Tianshi often uses this trick to scare his disciples.
And in the clouds that they can hardly see.
Zhang Zhiwei stepped on the nine-headed lion, wrapped in golden light, holding the Dongfeng sword in his hand, like a stunning ray under the thick dark clouds.
He shuttled through the thunderclouds, waving the sword in his hand, cutting off the thunder one after another, and his whole momentum was so strong that he was like a thousand troops charging.
The thunder in the sky was connected into one piece, rushing like a raging flood. Zhang Zhiwei's hair was flying, the tip of the sword pointed directly at the thunder in the sky, and with a fierce swing, he casually swung out a sword light that was dozens of meters long and fierce.
The surging thunder was split in half by a sword, passing from the left and right sides of Zhang Zhiwei, and soon dissipated.
But then, another thicker thunder struck over.
Zhang Zhiwei was still not afraid. He did not use the big sword to cut the thunder. The power of heaven and earth is endless, but when human power is limited, even if he has the Saint Thief, he can absorb the essence of heaven and earth to replenish himself anytime and anywhere, but he can't withstand such consumption.
He carried the sword behind him, and the momentum of his body suddenly changed. Large groups of asphalt-like mud balls with black arcs jumping appeared around him.
Yin thunder is thick and turbid, sucking bones and squeezing marrow, and is best at protracted battles. He wants to use Yin thunder to break the thunder of heaven and earth.
Zhang Zhiwei stretched out his hand fiercely, and the torrent of Yin thunder spewed out from his palm, forming a big hand, and suddenly held up the thunder that was bombarding.
The two sides were fighting, and Yin thunder won in persistence. If the fierce Yang thunder could not defeat Yin thunder instantly, it meant that it could not be defeated.
Sure enough, after a few breaths, Yin thunder finally gained the upper hand, and the gorgeous sky thunder was gradually eroded and disappeared.
Zhang Zhiwei took a deep breath, raised his knife and looked into the depths of the thundercloud. Another thunder was born. This time, the thunder was no longer lightning like before.
Instead, it was a vast black sea of clouds, from which purple thunder as thick as an arm kept splashing out, covering Zhang Zhiwei like a spider web.
For a moment, thunder was roaring in all directions, and there was a feeling that the net of heaven was wide and nothing could escape it.
Zhang Zhiwei looked at the surging sea of clouds in front of him. If the previous thunder was similar to the fierce Yang thunder, then the current black sea of clouds was similar to the damp and cold Yin thunder.
Facing this kind of thunder, it would be unwise to use Yin thunder to deal with it. It would fall into a long struggle. Yin thunder should be broken by Yang thunder.
Zhang Zhiwei quickly switched states. In just a moment, silver lightning spread from his body like a spider web.
He concentrated his strength and slapped out with his palm. The lightning was as agile as a dragon, and the momentum was as strong as a rainbow. It stretched out and shattered the black thunder in one breath.
Even if the remaining thunder rushed to him, it would hardly have any effect. It was dispersed by the golden light of his body protection.
But then, new thunder gathered.
Zhang Zhiwei did not continue the previous operation. He felt that it was meaningless to just use means to fight against thunder.
Thunder came in waves, and he dispersed them in waves. Although fighting against the sky is endless fun, it is about the struggle of the general trend and the fight against fate. For example, the defeat of the Han Dynasty was destined by heaven, but Zhuge Wuhou wanted to change his fate against heaven. It was not jumping into the clouds and fighting against the natural forces of heaven and earth. This was at best a battle of magic.
"Could it be that the so-called thunder disaster is actually to lead the thunder into the body?"
Zhang Zhiwei thought flashed in his mind. The essence of the lower elixir actually represents the physical body, which is facing the thunder tribulation.
Logically speaking, one should accept the baptism of thunder with his life, but if he lets go of his means and allows all the thunder to enter his body...
Zhang Zhiwei narrowed his eyes. No matter how high his life cultivation is, he is still a mortal after all. Even if he has many means to protect his way, doing so may still lead to unpredictable risks.
"Dan Gong is to refine the elixir. Whether it is adding materials or adding fire, it should be done slowly. You must not add too much material or burn too much fire."
"Maybe you can appropriately let go of some defenses and attract some thunder to enter your body. Let's see the situation first!"
Even though he knew it was very risky, out of confidence in his own means, Zhang Zhiwei decided to give it a try.
He put away the Dongfeng Great Sword and stopped using other means such as thunder magic, preparing to meet the next thunder.
But in order to avoid too much thunder rushing into his body at once, he maintained the golden light on his body.
"Boom!"
The purple thunder rushed towards Zhang Zhiwei like a storm. Zhang Zhiwei did not retreat but advanced and rushed into it at once.
