Becoming Immortal in One Step - C97

The old man’s face stiffened. Only now did he remember that Lei Ao was a traitor of the gods. In his body, the power of the heavenly tribulation had tripled. Coupled with external interference, the heavenly tribulation had increased by four times, or even more.

A heavenly tribulation that was four times stronger than normal, even the Danluo Realm warriors did not dare to underestimate it. The elderly man was confident that he could protect himself, but the other subordinates he brought could not.

“Retreat, all of you retreat as far as you can.” The old man was the first to order his subordinates to retreat.

Otherwise, the more people appeared within the region of the divine retribution, the stronger the divine retribution would be.

“It’s too late. Die.”

How could a human’s speed compare to thunder and lightning? Unless you have reached teleportation.

The increased might of the heavenly thunder was like a 15 meter thick pillar of light that came crashing down. Even Lei Ao was secretly shocked, afraid that he would fail this time.

Fortunately, his body was still able to hold on. The moment the heavenly thunder struck down, he had already created the 5th star map. At the same time, he opened his small world and channeled the heavenly thunder into it.

The water in the golden pond cooperated and turned into a huge wave to swallow the heavenly thunder, sealing it up with layers of array diagrams.

Looking at it from the outside, the clear water in the pool was suffused with traces of electric currents. It was truly a wondrous sight.

The first heavenly tribulation did not just send out a single heavenly thunder. Although the main thunder was attacking Lei Ao, it also sent out several dozen bolts of lightning to attack the others within the heavenly tribulation’s range.

The more powerful one was, the stronger the thunderbolt attack would be.

The old man’s team was not prepared for the tribulation. One bolt of heavenly lightning was sent through, and other than the old man, the rest of the team had less than one-third of their survivors. They were all powerful experts who had crossed heavenly tribulation and reached the Cloud Bridge Realm.

Including the old man, there were a total of 12 people. Aside from the old man, everyone else was desperately trying to escape from the range of the divine retribution.

However, how could Lei Ao allow them to do as they pleased? With a sweep of the Great Sky Falling Palm Art, he blocked their advance.

In that split-second, a second bolt of lightning descended from the sky.

Lei Ao held on. The old man was safe and sound, but more than half of the eleven Cloud Bridge Realm experts had died. Only two remained.

Of these two, one was at the 4th Heavenly Layer while the other was at the 6th. In terms of strength, they could easily suppress Lei Ao, but they couldn’t capture him.

With such a good opportunity in front of them, Lei Ao definitely wouldn’t let them escape. Once the Howling Wind Incantation was activated, no matter how much the two of them fled, they wouldn’t be able to escape from the Heavenly Tribulation.

Soon, a third bolt of heavenly lightning descended.

With a loud bang, the only ones who could still stand were Lei Ao and the old man.

“Old man, your subordinates have all died. You should go and be their companion as well.” Lei Ao sneered as he stared at the old man.

“Don’t be complacent. If even this old man can’t survive this calamity, it’s even more impossible for you to be at the tiny Azure Sea Realm.”

The old man’s eyes were bloodshot. He had brought all of the sect’s elites with him. After this battle, the sect would be weakened for a very long time.

“So what if he’s at the realm of the Great Net? This young master’s body is not something that trash like you can compare with. Otherwise, the heavenly tribulation would not be that much stronger than you.”

With regards to the old man’s confidence, Lei Ao scoffed disdainfully. Even if he didn’t die from the lightning strike, it would consume at least 70% of his power. At that time, Lei Ao would have enough confidence to destroy him.

“I’ll kill you first. As long as you die, the divine retribution will naturally disappear.” After the old man finished speaking, he fiercely pounced towards Lei Ao.

Although the idea was good, it was not very realistic.

Lei Ao was secretly delighted in his heart. The fact that the two of them were tangled together meant that they would be able to withstand two lightning strikes at the same time.

Lei Ao had the protection of the star map, so it wasn’t difficult for him to deal with the heavenly thunder. However, while the old man was attacking Lei Ao, he had to use his body to resist.

Of course, when Lei Ao formed the star map with his hands, he was unable to block the old man’s attack.

At this moment, Lei Ao had no choice but to reveal his trump card.

“Ha, beast shield!”

Very suddenly, a dark black shield appeared in front of Lei Ao, blocking the old man’s sword.

“What is this?” The elder was shocked. The shield was actually able to block his full power attack. It was at least a high-grade defensive divine weapon.

No matter what, he had to snatch it over! The old man’s mind raced, and his eyes revealed a greedy look.

In the God Realm, offensive godly weapons were quite common. Rare were defensive godly weapons, such as armor. If one wanted to enhance the defense without obstructing the movements of the four limbs, the armor was not only expensive, but also difficult to buy.

Although what Lei Ao took out was not armor, it was still able to defend against a full-powered attack from a Da Lou Realm expert without being damaged at all. Just this quality was a priceless treasure, no wonder the old man was interested.

Unfortunately, he had forgotten that he was still inside the heavenly tribulation.

He was stunned for a moment. When the thunders woke him up, it was too late to fight back.

As the distance between the two was extremely short, the two bolts of heavenly lightning merged, forming a bolt of lightning over a hundred feet wide.

“Shua!” Both of them were struck by lightning at the same time. Lei Ao, who had been prepared for a while, only felt a slight impact and quickly sealed the lightning into the small world.

What surprised him was that after being struck by the lightning, the old man actually took advantage of the instant he opened the small world to rush in like lightning.

Normally, Lei Ao would have been willing to take him into his small world, even if he was at the Da Lou Realm. With the Seven Ultimate Beast Soul left behind by Leng Ning and the pool of golden blood, as long as he wasted some time, he would be grinded to death.

However, it was different now. The old man did not enter alone. He had brought another bolt of heavenly lightning with him.

With the unexpected change, Lei Ao groaned secretly. The heavenly lightning without the star map was currently releasing the power of thunder and lightning in the small world. Wherever it went, it was forcibly split apart.

Amidst the heaven-shaking earth-shaking rumbles, Lei Ao’s primordial spirit seemed to be pierced by thousands of needles as he endured the pain. He sent half of his consciousness into the small world, ignoring the old man’s attack as he sealed the heavenly thunder.

“A small world is actually the legendary small world. Haha, it suits this old man’s luck.” The old man could not stop laughing. Not only did he want to steal Lei Ao’s divine vein, he also wanted to possess his body.

In the God Realm, almost all of the Primal Souls were located in the Violet Palace Realm. Anyone who could cultivate a pocket dimension would have to reach the Martial Saint realm.

Thus, in the God Realm, the small world was already a legend. It had been a million years since a Zhi Zun appeared.

Over the countless years, there had been a few experts who had created their own pocket dimensions in the Saint Ruler realm. None of these people did not have all sorts of fortuitous encounters, and the probability of them being within a trillion was equally high.

The underworld clans. Although they were called traitors of the gods, no one knew their tyranny, and no one didn’t want to obtain their divine veins.

In comparison, the small world’s attractiveness was in no way inferior to a divine vein. No wonder that old man went crazy.

However, he seemed to have overlooked something extraordinary about this small world.

In the past, Saint Rulers of the God Realm who possessed small worlds were only several tens of meters in size. Furthermore, most of them were desert dead, devoid of any signs of life.

Unless one possessed supernatural strength, it was impossible to transplant some of their spiritual roots into a small world.

As for Lei Ao’s small world, after several attempts to forcefully establish it, although it couldn’t be said to be 10,000 miles wide, it was at least 100 miles wide.

Compared to the Saint Rulers, only Lei Ao’s small world could truly support the word “world”.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Brat, stop using all of your strength. Obediently let me possess your body.” The old man laughed sinisterly as he pounced towards Lei Ao.

“Grab your head, I’ll crush you, you old bastard.”

Lei Ao flew into a rage. The beast shield turned into a giant mountain and crashed into the old man from high up in the sky, pressing him down with a loud bang.

In his small world, Lei Ao was a god. As long as his opponent’s strength did not exceed the limits of what the small world could handle, he would only be able to take a beating.

Just now, he hadn’t been paying attention to the old man’s trick. While he was busy sealing the heavenly thunder, Lei Ao had used the purple sun in the sky to shoot fire at the old man.

These were the seven ultimate beast souls left behind by Leng You Ran. It was convenient for Lei Ao to search for the remaining seven ultimate beast souls, but right now, he could use them.

The Nine Netherworld Flame was the most unique flame in the world. Since the creation of the Primal Chaos, it had only been used by the cold and serene Nine Netherworld Phoenix.

This flame had no temperature, only a bone-piercing coldness. Once touched, it would start burning from the inside, eroding the primordial spirit before burning the body.

The old man had never seen such a strange flame before. Before he was able to break free from the mountain’s suppression, the flame shot into his body with a ‘sou’ sound.

“Ahh ~ ~ ~ Quickly stop …”

In that instant, the elder rolled on the ground in pain. The tyrannical power actually sent the mountain peak flying, and the primordial spirit that was being burned by the Netherworld Flame slowly melted.

To a cultivator, the primordial spirit was their real weakness. If the primordial spirit was dissipated, it would be destroyed in body and soul. If the primordial spirit was damaged, it would be damaged as well.
