169: Chapter 169 Thunderous Roar, Peerless Jade Embryo

"The blue stone, this mysterious blue stone, it is definitely a treasure. I wonder if I can open it with my power?"

Hun Tiandi took a deep breath. The last time he sat cross-legged on the blue stone to cultivate, it brought his Four-Star Great Dou Master cultivation close to a two-star increase, successfully promoting him to a Six-Star Great Dou Master.

This blue stone was definitely a precious treasure. He stepped forward and gently stroked its surface with his fingers.

He vaguely felt a strange connection with the blue stone, as if he could sense something within it.

Now that his injuries had fully recovered and his Dou Qi had returned to its peak, he felt an urge to try and break open the blue stone while he was in his prime state.

Just as Hun Tiandi was preparing to act, Elder Dan suddenly spoke up from beside him: "Fallen God Stream has been sealed off. We might have some trouble getting out."

"What? Why would they suddenly seal it? Could the experts from Burning Flame Valley have noticed us and want to trap me in Fallen God Stream until I die?"

Upon hearing this, Hun Tiandi's face darkened, and he stared coldly at the light barrier in the sky.

"It probably isn't aimed at you. The explosion at Poison Dragon Cliff earlier had earth-shattering energy that spread outwards, causing the entire Fallen God Stream to undergo strange changes. Experts from the Central Plains have arrived to prevent the terrifying poison from spreading and threatening the lives of the creatures in the Central Plains, so they had no choice but to seal off Fallen God Stream..."

Elder Dan pondered slightly, his turbid eyes seemingly piercing through the endless poisonous fog to see the outside world.

So that was it. Hun Tiandi nodded slightly. He stopped thinking about the seal on Fallen God Stream and turned his gaze back to the blue stone in front of him.

"Let's give it a try. Perhaps I can break open this mysterious blue stone and see the true treasure inside."

Hun Tiandi was never one to hesitate; once he had an idea, he implemented it immediately, and he prepared to take action.

Hu! He took a deep breath, mobilized his Dou Qi to circulate rapidly through his meridians for a cycle, bringing himself to his peak state as a vigorous, blood-colored Dou Qi flowed through his meridians.

He raised his palm, and his Dou Qi surged in like a tidal wave. A layer of blood-colored light flowed over his palm print, crystal clear like blood jade, becoming extremely terrifying.

Boom! He struck down with his palm, landing it solidly on the blue stone. The mysterious blue stone was incredibly hard; this strike hit it, yet there was no reaction, nor did it absorb his energy.

Suddenly, before Hun Tiandi could react, it erupted with a terrifying, fearsome energy that shimmered with a white jade-like luster, carrying the power that Hun Tiandi had just struck it with.

It all rebounded back, pouring directly onto his body.

Bang! This rebounding force was too terrifying; it was not just the power Hun Tiandi had unleashed! It also included the mysterious blue stone's own power. The convergence of these two powerful forces was immeasurably fearsome.

He had not expected such a turn of events, and the rebounding force came too quickly, giving Hun Tiandi no time to react at all.

He was forcefully struck by this tyrannical power.

Puchi! His body felt as if it had been struck by lightning, and a mouthful of light purple essence blood uncontrollably spewed from his mouth, shooting like a sharp sword onto the mysterious blue stone.

Hun Tiandi's body flew backward, crashing heavily onto the ground dozens of feet away.

Kicking up dust, another mouthful of blood landed on the ground.

"Young Master Yun, are you alright?" Elder Dan looked at the injured Hun Tiandi and called out.

"How is this possible?" Horror welled up in Hun Tiandi's eyes; he could not believe it.

In that instant, he had suffered injuries half as severe as before. His whole body was in intense pain, his internal organs were nearly displaced, and his internal injuries were extremely serious.

Before he could react, a truly shocking scene occurred, making him forget to even pay attention to his own injuries.

The mysterious blue stone began to change.

The originally simple and unadorned blue stone had been no different from an ordinary rock.

When he spat out a mouthful of essence blood, it vanished rapidly, absorbed by the stone, and immediately after, a layer of jade light emerged on the blue stone.

It suddenly surged, and the plain, unadorned stone manifested a kind of magical spirituality.

Under the astonished gazes of Hun Tiandi and Elder Dan.

Boom...! The huge blue stone trembled and flew up from the ground, hovering three zhang high in the air.

Thump... Thump... The mysterious blue stone actually emitted a sound like a human heart beating. From this strange sound, it contracted... and expanded...

Just like a real heart, it seemed that some kind of peerless treasure was gestating within the blue stone.

Today was the day it would be born into the world.

Elder Dan, who was beside him, was equally surprised. A long time ago, Elder Dan had seen in ancient texts that heaven and earth naturally gestated some powerful divine objects, which could not be obtained without great fortune and great opportunity.

However, he had never heard of anyone obtaining such a divine object.

"How is this possible? Could it be that this blue stone is actually gestating a rare treasure, or perhaps it is not a treasure, but a peerless jade embryo formed by heaven and earth!"

With Elder Dan's knowledge, even seeing this shocking scene, he could not be certain.

Crack! Suddenly, a pitch-black cloud mass condensed in the sky above the blue stone. Lightning swirled within the black clouds, carrying five-colored radiance and spawning lightning of various colors.

Rolling thunder, the majesty of heaven and earth, engulfed this valley fissure like a tidal wave.

The defensive light barrier of Fallen God Stream was like paper, unable to resist it.

"Damn it, what is going on?"

Hun Tiandi, who was lying injured on the ground, felt as if an ancient divine mountain was pressing down on his back. Under the majesty of heaven and earth, his pitch-black eyes stared intently at the lightning anomaly.

"This is a lightning tribulation. Good heavens, what kind of terrifying thing is gestating in this blue stone? The moment it is born, it provokes the heavens to send down a lightning tribulation to destroy it."

Elder Dan exclaimed, suddenly diving into the purple ring. As a soul entity, he naturally feared this terrifying lightning.

With a boom, the lightning in the sky surged, and a bolt of black lightning descended, carrying an aura of destruction, striking the blue stone squarely.

The blue stone did not dodge at all, allowing the lightning to strike it.

As expected of the power of heaven and earth, it blasted off a large amount of broken stone. The black lightning landed on it, continuously wreaking destruction, intending to destroy the blue stone.

The blue stone was not to be outdone; it erupted with a powerful jade light, enveloping the pitch-black lightning and swallowing it whole.

Thump... The heartbeat inside the blue stone remained strong, and the sound grew even grander, as if it had gained some benefit from the lightning.

The blue stone's reaction seemed to provoke the lightning. A red bolt of lightning, even more powerful than the previous one, descended and struck the blue stone aggressively.

It violently blasted away the stone on the surface, which fell to the ground.

Furthermore, the blue stone became a circle smaller. It let the lightning shatter the stone on its surface, and then it swallowed the red lightning as well.

This scene fell into Hun Tiandi's eyes, and waves rose in his heart.

The mysterious blue stone seemed to treat the lightning tribulation as the most delicious food, which was incredibly bizarre.

Anger! The lightning tribulation was angry!

The originally five-colored lightning suddenly turned into seven colors. One bolt of lightning after another fell like raindrops, bit by bit shattering the stone on the outside of the blue stone.

After enduring a bolt of lightning, the blue stone would shrink by a circle.

The shrunken blue stone emitted an increasingly brilliant jade light.

The thumping heartbeat was strong and powerful, and the peerless jade embryo gestating within was about to break through the blue stone and emerge at the right time.

"What kind of precious treasure is it that needs lightning to temper itself and absorb the power of heaven? I have never heard of it; it is truly miraculous."

Elder Dan in the purple ring was also watching the outside world. With his discerning eye, he naturally saw that the blue stone was absorbing the lightning to temper itself.

This was simply earth-shattering.

Elder Dan said softly, even among the Lei Clan, one of the Ancient Eight Clans that cultivated lightning Dou Qi, there was absolutely no one bold enough to dare to absorb the power of lightning during a lightning tribulation.

This indicated that the treasure gestating within was absolutely an unparalleled divine object of heaven and earth.
