Chapter 224: Thunderbolt
Thinking of this, Xuantian's expression became extremely firm and said seriously: "Senior, even if there is only one opportunity, I must challenge it. Who knows if the opportunity given up this time will stay for me, and may disappear immediately. I can't compete with the future enemies with my current ability. Now I must improve my cultivation, and when I encounter a strong enemy in the future, I can have enough power to protect the people I cherish."
"The spirit is commendable, and it is indeed worthy of being the person chosen by the way of heaven. Since you persist so much, I will naturally not stop you. Now I will open the eighth form of trial for you. Whether success or failure depends on your own fortune."
After saying that, Shu Ling opened a space crack in front of the two of them and said, "Go, there is a space that I cannot control. This time, please forgive me for not being able to help in the crisis."
Xuantian and Li Mengluan looked at each other, confirmed the belief in each other's eyes, and then stepped forward into the crack of the space together.
After entering the space crack, everything in front of them changed rapidly, and the pure white light gradually dissipated from their eyes. When they reacted again, the two had already arrived at the trial realm.
Xuantian and Li Mengluan carefully observed the environment they are in, but found that the structure of this trial realm was very simple.
By confirming the surrounding scenes, the two of them can be sure that they are now at the top of a mountain. Although the specific height of the mountain cannot be determined for the time being, from the distance between the clouds and mist and the top of the mountain, it can be judged that the mountain is at least several thousand feet high.
There were neither plants nor birds nor animals on the top of the mountain, and there was an empty feeling. This lifeless environment sounded the alarm bell in Li Mengluan's intuition. She frowned slightly, her expression became serious, and she asked Xuantian: "Was you also in such an environment when you were practicing here before?"
Xuan Tian also vaguely felt the strange aura emitted from this space, shook his head, and said, "The trial environment of each style of the Heart Sword is very bad, but this time it seems relatively peaceful and a bit strange."
Li Mengluan said in a deep voice: "My intuition tells me that the dangers I will face next are far more serious than we imagined. We must not take it lightly, and we must focus on observing every subtle change in this space."
"Would you like to go to the foot of the mountain to take a look? Maybe you can get more information that is beneficial to us." Xuantian made his own suggestions to Li Mengluan.
Li Mengluan nodded and said, "It is indeed necessary to go down the mountain to take a look. Maybe the center of the trial is not above the top of the mountain."
However, just as the two of them made a decision and were about to go down the mountain, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared on the clear sky that was originally cloudless.
The sky began to become dark for some reason, as if it had entered the night from daylight in an instant. Everything was born too quickly, which made Li Mengluan, who was very calm at any time, look a little surprised.
A blue light as thick as a wrist suddenly appeared on the dim sky, shining dazzlingly, like a huge gap that divided the sky.
"It's lightning! But how could it appear in such a place?" Li Mengluan's voice was full of surprise.
Lightning as a
Natural phenomena should appear below the clouds, and they no longer exist when they reach the heights where Xuantian and Li Mengluan are located. This is knowledge that ordinary people know. However, the phenomenon that arises above the sky at this moment easily breaks this established law.
Staring at the hideous thunder that tore the sky apart, Xuantian's gaze was blurred by the shining light. At this moment, he suddenly remembered the saying that was circulating among Taoist practitioners.
"The Yuanhui Heavenly Tribulation? The realm of a practitioner is about to break through to the mundane world and achieve the immortal path?" The memory in Xuantian's mind gradually coincided with the scene above the sky.
"No, Mengluan, leave here quickly. That's not lightning, it's the sky fire that descended from the sky. You must not take it head-on."
The moment Xuantian reacted, he immediately warned Li Mengluan loudly, hoping that she could escape from this dangerous place immediately.
"Brother Tian, do you think that is the thunder tribulation in Taoism legend?"
Before he finished speaking, a blue thunderbolt that was as thick as a stem of a small tree fell from the nine heavens and rushed towards the two people above the top of the peak.
The dazzling lightning rendered the entire peak area into a bright blue color, making Xuantian and Li Mengluan unable to accommodate any other colors in their eyes.
The thunder lightning did not come with the thunder, with less fancy shock, but more solemn heavenly power, which made the two people within their range of pressure deeply shaken.
Under the terrifying power of the distant nightmare, Xuantian temporarily lost his consciousness and entered a state of loss of mind for a moment. However, in such a critical situation, the trialist's spirit will not be allowed to relax at any moment. When the concentration dissipates, the moment his life and life are threatened.
At the critical moment, Li Mengluan stood resolutely in front of Xuantian. She quickly pulled out the iron sword carried by the phantom and stabbed it upwards. With a powerful aura like a hero cutting off his arm, the iron sword in Li Mengluan's hand greeted the Nine Sky Mad Thunder filled with the power of the gods without any hesitation.
The moment the sword edge intersects with the lightning, time and space seem to suddenly stagnate and no longer flows.
The scene of a beautiful girl wearing a simple black dress raising her sword to catch Tianhuo will become a heroic scene that will never be gone in the memory of the young man behind her.
The lightning gradually dissipated, and Xuantian's spiritual consciousness also returned to awake.
Xuantian saw the girl in front of him who was desperate for him, trembling with an iron sword all over his body.
There was a faint blue thunder around the girl's body, demonstrating the damage she suffered at that moment.
The Nine Sky Fire is against people and things, and the sword has not been broken, but the body has been damaged.
Li Mengluan herself could feel the true power contained in the Nine Sky Thunder, which was part of the power of the Heavenly Dao. Even though she knew that she had very strong strength, the next attack was already at its limit. The violent thunder energy was still raging wildly in her meridians at this moment, and it was impossible to calm her down in a short period of time, which gradually aggravated the internal injuries she suffered.
"Fortunately, this is just an illusion generated by the illusion barrier, not a physical entity, otherwise there would be a life worry. But even so, I'm afraid my soul will be damaged unknowingly." Li Mengluan couldn't help thinking.
road.
Xuantian's voice came at this time and he asked anxiously: "Mengluan, it's okay? It's all my fault that I lost my mind for a moment, so that you can resist it for me."
Xuantian's voice was full of apology, and he himself could not tolerate the mistakes he had made just now.
"Brother Tian, I'm fine, you don't have to worry." Li Mengluan comforted Xuantian, and raised her head to look into the sky, but the scene she saw made her feel a little desperate.
The sky was still dark and there was no sign of clearing. The blue lightning formed from the sky again. The second wave of offensive would arrive in the next moment. This trial seemed to be far from over.
Li Mengluan forced her body, which was about to be exhausted, gritted her teeth and persevered. A voice in her heart kept hinting at herself: "You must hold on. If I fall like this, Brother Tian will definitely worry about his life."
When Xuantian saw Li Mengluan holding the stubborn look tightly at the hilt of the sword, his heart felt as if it was cut by a knife. He roared at Li Mengluan with a hoarse voice: "Don't take it anymore, Mengluan! This is my trial. You have no responsibility to take risks for me. This time I will go there myself."
Li Mengluan turned around and looked at Xuantian with a gentle smile full of pampering.
"You can't catch it. I know the power of this Tianhuo better than you. Brother Tian, listen to me and retreat, the farther away from me, the better. Don't enter the range that will be affected."
"No, I must not let you be hurt for me anymore. Since that's the case, then we will run away and escape to the mountain. The farther we can escape, the better. It's best to escape from this trial space and never come back!" Xuantian said hysterically. At this moment, he even forgot the purpose of entering this space.
"What's the use of escaping? I've been injured and my strength has been greatly reduced. Even if I return to the barrier, I'm not very useful. If I can't pass this trial, Brother Tian's cultivation will not improve. We will lose the only opportunity to break through the illusion barrier. What is the difference between dying here and dying in the barrier? No matter what Brother Tian, I think, I must seize this last glimmer of hope and never let go."
Li Mengluan's decisive words came to Xuantian's heart word by word, making him feel an unprecedented shock, which was the courage to overcome life and death and overcome all fear.
"For Brother Tian, even if it is the power of infinite heaven, I will block it all. Now there is no decision to stop me."
The blue sky fire, carrying the endless power of heaven, came again at this moment. Li Mengluan's eyes ignited a high fighting spirit, and she only moved forward and did not retreat. She raised the iron sword in her hand high, but her delicate body became an indestructible barrier in front of Xuan Tian.
As the core of the trial, the sky fire will never dissipate because of sympathy with the two. It still falls ruthlessly, leaving no room for the two to breathe.
Li Mengluan would never let Xuantian have any chance to react. She only saw her flying up with all the remaining strength in her body and taking the initiative to face the violent sky fire that fell from the nine heavens.
When the sword edge and the lightning met again, Li Mengluan felt the second time that the world-destructive wave that could almost break the world under its power penetrated through his body. If this feeling could not be experienced in person, it would be impossible to understand forever.
