300: Chapter 300 Crimson Lightning Tribulation

Immediately after, Fu Tianming paid no more attention to the immobilized Yun Ge, turning instead to look at the others who were fleeing like headless flies.

With a cold smile playing on his lips, he casually pointed his finger.

Puchi!

With every point of his finger across the void, whether the opponent was a Profound Immortal or a True Immortal, and no matter how far they fled, their figures would suddenly jerk to a halt.

Then, without exception, they would explode into pieces, turning into clumps of pure life essence and immortal essence that flew back and were easily absorbed by Fu Tianming.

Immobilized in mid-air, Yun Ge watched as the fleeing Cultivators were rapidly harvested, her heart filled with powerlessness and rage.

Her gaze involuntarily turned toward the lone figure below.

With the last vestige of hope in her eyes, Yun Ge shouted with all her might:

"Senior! Save me! If I can escape this, the Prince of Zhenbei's Residence will surely offer you a generous reward!"

Hearing this, Su Mo turned his gaze toward Yun Ge:

"A generous reward? What kind of reward? Marrying me?"

"Ah?"

Yun Ge was stunned, completely blindsided by Su Mo asking such a question at this life-or-death moment.

She subconsciously looked at Su Mo's face, thinking of his mysterious power from helping her several times and his composure in the face of danger... A flush of red quietly climbed onto her cheeks, and as if possessed, she whispered shyly in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz:

"Okay..."

However, before she could finish her words,

Boom—!

A clap of thunder suddenly exploded above the ice plains without warning, cutting her off!

Fu Tianming, who was about to continue his harvest, stopped abruptly and looked up at the sky, a look of gravity appearing in his dark red eyes for the first time.

In the sky, dark clouds as thick as ink gathered frantically, swirling into a massive vortex. At the center of the vortex, it wasn't the usual purple or golden lightning of a Heavenly Tribulation.

Instead, streaks of blood-red lightning flickered in and out of view, emitting a heart-palpitating aura of power.

Blood-colored lightning!

Fu Tianming's pupils shrank; he knew better than anyone what this meant!

This was the Tribulation of Extinction sent down by the Heavenly Dao for existences like Fallen Immortals who went against heaven and strayed from the orthodox immortal path.

Its power far exceeded ordinary Heavenly Tribulations; even he didn't dare to face it head-on.

"Kid! You're going to undergo your Lightning Tribulation here?!"

Su Mo looked up at the blood-colored vortex above his head. Far from showing fear, a smile appeared on his face:

"What? Are you afraid?"

Fu Tianming was choked by those words, his face darkening further as he let out a cold snort but didn't reply.

He was indeed wary!

Undergoing Tribulation as a Fallen Immortal was a hundred times more difficult than for a regular Cultivator. One needed to find the right time and place and be fully prepared to have even a slim chance of survival in a life-or-death situation.

For someone like Su Mo to trigger the Blood-Colored Heavenly Tribulation without any preparation was absolute suicide.

More than anything, he felt it was a pity.

It seemed such a body with immense potential was now completely out of his reach!

"Hmph! Seeking your own death!"

Fu Tianming no longer hesitated, his figure flickering as he appeared several hundred feet away, well outside the range covered by the Lightning Tribulation.

As for those fleeing 'resources,' he couldn't be bothered with them for now!

He planned to see if the kid could survive the Lightning Tribulation; if he did, he would move in for the Possession immediately.

Beneath the tribulation clouds, only Su Mo and Yun Ge remained.

"Senior... you..."

Yun Ge looked at the suffocating blood-colored clouds above and then at Su Mo, who seemed completely unguarded, and spoke again in a panic: "Senior... you... aren't you leaving?"

Hearing this, Su Mo glanced back at her. Seeing her disheveled state from being bound by immortal and demonic Qi, and the pure concern in her eyes, he shrugged nonchalantly:

"I'm not leaving. Anyway, you won't die."

He spoke these words casually, as if stating a predetermined fact. He knew the properties of the Indestructible Dao Body better than anyone; as long as the Origin wasn't instantly and completely annihilated, it was hard to die. Although this Lightning Tribulation was terrifying, its main target was locked onto him as a 'Fallen Immortal.' Yun Ge would at most be affected by the aftershocks, and with the recovery power of the Indestructible Dao Body, she should be able to endure it.

After saying that, he ignored Yun Ge and focused all his attention on the blood-colored tribulation clouds brewing to their limit in the sky.

"BOOM—!!!"

The first blood-colored lightning bolt, like a roaring blood-colored Dragon, tore through the dark canopy and struck down violently, carrying the pure destructive will of the Heavenly Dao!

It slammed straight toward the crown of Su Mo's head!

The moment the Lightning Tribulation hit his body, Su Mo immediately felt immense pressure.

That blood-red lightning wasn't a pure energy attack; it contained a powerful force of destruction.

The power of the lightning rampaged through his body. Everywhere it passed, his Meridians, bones, and organs throbbed with the agonizing pain of being torn apart and incinerated.

But just then,

The Chaos Qi that had been flowing quietly began to move!

They were like gluttonous beasts scenting a delicious feast, actively greeting the invading blood-red lightning.

The moment the Chaos Qi made contact with the blood-colored lightning, there was no violent confrontation; instead, the Chaos Qi began to rapidly devour the violent energy of the Lightning Tribulation.

To Su Mo's surprise, after devouring the blood-red lightning, he clearly felt the Chaos Qi throughout his body grow slightly stronger!

"Refreshing!"

Su Mo couldn't help but let out a long howl.

This behavior immediately enraged the will within the Lightning Tribulation.

Rumble rumble rumble—!!!

The tribulation clouds churned violently, the blood color deepening further.

Furthermore, the blood-colored lightning no longer struck down one by one, but by the dozens and hundreds.

Su Mo's figure was instantly submerged in a blinding sea of blood-red lightning.

Fu Tianming hovered in the distance, his eyelids twitching as he watched the Lightning Tribulation completely swallow Su Mo.

"A sea of blood-colored lightning of such power... even I wouldn't dare to face it head-on in my prime... this kid is definitely dead!"

He concluded in his heart that this kid was destined to turn to ashes under the heavenly might.

But just as he finished saying this, his brow furrowed tightly.

Something was wrong!

Very wrong!

Relying on his powerful Divine Thought at the Golden Immortal level, he carefully sensed the situation at the center of the lightning sea.

Logically, under the continuous bombardment of such violent destructive energy, any life aura within should have faded away rapidly.

But the reality was exactly the opposite!

In his perception, the life aura belonging to Su Mo at the core of the lightning sea showed no signs of weakening; instead, it was growing at an extremely fast pace.

"What is going on?!"

Fu Tianming's brow was locked in a tight frown.

What kind of method did he use to remain unharmed under a Fallen Immortal's Lightning Tribulation?

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind... however, these doubts were quickly replaced by greed.

"No matter what method was used..."

Fu Tianming's gaze was fixed intently on the aura within the lightning sea.

"Since he can survive the Lightning Tribulation, it proves the potential and value of this body far exceed my previous estimates."

"Once the Lightning Tribulation is over, he will surely be in his weakest state..."

"At that time, this body will be mine for the taking!"
