88: Captive Immortal

Underground!

The lightning figure: "......"

He had intended to kill Li Changfeng, this guy who disrespected the Heavenly Tribulation.

But he didn't expect Li Changfeng's strength to be excessively strong.

He had not yet achieved Immortal Ascension, but his strength crushed him.

One must know, he had already reached the Late Stage Human Immortal Realm.

Under normal circumstances, he should have been able to kill someone in the Tribulation Transcendence Realm with a casual palm strike.

But the result was, he was beaten like a sandbag.

Li Changfeng spoke again: "You're not coming out?"

"Do you want to stay underground for a lifetime?"

"If that's the case, then I'll pour manure into this hole and bury you underground!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the lightning figure rushed out of the ground and appeared opposite Li Changfeng.

The lightning on his body had become dim, and his Qi was weak.

His face was pale, indicating he was severely injured.

The lightning figure asked helplessly: "What exactly do you want to do?"

"I am an Immortal, and for this past thousand years, I have controlled the Heavenly Tribulation."

"Moreover, I have a very terrifying existence behind me. You injure me, have you considered the consequences?"

Slap!

Li Changfeng casually waved his hand, delivering a heavy slap to the other party's face.

This slap directly sent him flying several thousand feet.

The lightning figure, whose head was dazed from the slap, found Li Changfeng appearing before him again.

Li Changfeng said indifferently: "I ask, you answer!"

"If your answer doesn't satisfy me, I'll slap you again."

"Any questions?"

The lightning figure nodded. Having fallen to such a state, what else could he do?

Besides agreeing to Li Changfeng's suggestion, he had no other option.

Li Changfeng looked down at the lightning figure and slowly said.

"Where do you come from, what power do you belong to, what Realm are you in."

"Also, what is your name, etc., tell me everything."

"If I find you're hiding anything, I will slap you."

"You don't want to be the first Heavenly Tribulation controller to be slapped to death, do you?"

The lightning figure's face was full of anger, but seeing Li Changfeng's expression change, he immediately forced a smile.

Only, this smile was somewhat stiff and extremely unnatural.

Slap!

Seeing the lightning figure remain silent for a long time, Li Changfeng patted him on the head.

He knocked him down, making him look extremely disheveled.

"If you don't speak again, my patience will run out."

"At that time, you'll probably find it hard to die, and even more impossible to live."

"Let me think, how should I deal with you."

"How about I Seal all your power and throw you into a cesspool?"

The lightning figure immediately said: "Don't... don't do that."

"I'll tell you everything, please don't treat me like that."

"My name is He Li, and I am a Disciple of Tianlei Palace."

"My current Realm is the Late Stage Human Immortal Realm, and I come from the Central Region."

"Is there anything else you wish to know?"

Seeing He Li being so cooperative, Li Changfeng was also a bit surprised.

Late Stage Human Immortal!

Li Changfeng had previously felt that the other party's strength was not weak. It turned out he was already in the Late Stage Human Immortal Realm, which was indeed quite strong.

No wonder he had a ten percent chance of injuring him.

Li Changfeng asked again, this time asking the question he cared about most.

"He Li, tell me what's going on with the Southern Region Cultivation world."

"Why is it that for ten thousand years, no one in the Southern Region Cultivation world has been able to undergo Tribulation Transcendence and achieve Immortal Ascension?"

"Even the Heavenly Dao would give Cultivators a ray of hope."

"But the Cultivators of the Southern Region Cultivation world don't have that, which is very abnormal."

"You guys are behind this, aren't you?"

This...

He Li hesitated. This question was difficult to answer.

Not that he couldn't, but he was afraid that after answering, Li Changfeng would kill him.

Li Changfeng's strength was incredibly terrifying.

He was clearly only in the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, yet he could easily kill him.

No!

Now it should be said that he is already considered half a Mahayana, and his strength has increased significantly.

As for why he is half a Mahayana, that is because he has not yet received the Heavenly Dao's baptism.

Li Changfeng raised his palm, and a wisp of Ancestral Phoenix Origin flame appeared in his palm.

He Li swallowed dryly. He felt the aura of death emanating from Li Changfeng.

"I'll tell you, just don't scare me."

"Your strength is terrifying. With that slap, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand it."

Li Changfeng said indifferently: "Then tell me the reason!"

"Why can't Southern Region Cultivators undergo Tribulation Transcendence and achieve Immortal Ascension!"

He Li sighed: "Calamity, the Heavenly Dao Great Calamity!"

"The Cultivation world is divided into five regions: the East, South, West, and North regions are relatively weak in strength."

"The Central Region is the most powerful!"

"Because the Central Region possesses the Origin Qi of the Heavenly Dao, Cultivators who undergo Tribulation Transcendence and achieve Immortal Ascension will enter the Central Region."

"But ten thousand years ago, something went wrong in the Central Region."

"To be precise, the Heavenly Dao Origin of the Central Region had a problem and could no longer accommodate more Immortals."

Li Changfeng listened silently. This was the greatest secret concerning the Southern Region Cultivation world.

The biggest secret as to why Cultivators, despite cultivating to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, could not achieve Immortal Ascension.

He Li continued: "After the Heavenly Dao Origin had problems, the Central Region's capacity was insufficient."

"And the more Immortals there were, the greater the consumption of the Heavenly Dao Origin power."

"In order to prevent the Heavenly Dao Origin from completely disappearing, several top Immortal Sects in the Central Region discussed it."

"They decided to exclude the East, South, West, and North regions, no longer accepting Cultivators from these four regions to undergo Tribulation Transcendence and achieve Immortal Ascension into the Central Region."

"And our Tianlei Palace, due to its special Cultivation Technique, possesses the means to control lightning."

"Therefore, the task of preventing Cultivators from the four regions from Undergoing Tribulation Transcendence and achieving Immortal Ascension fell upon our Tianlei Palace."

"This is why no one in the Southern Region Cultivation world can undergo Tribulation Transcendence and achieve Immortal Ascension."

A monstrous wave surged in Li Changfeng's heart. This matter was difficult to handle.

The four regions were isolated, and only the Central Region could undergo Tribulation Transcendence and achieve Immortal Ascension.

Although it was to prevent the Heavenly Dao Origin from being exhausted, this was unfair to the other four regions.

Why could the Central Region continue to achieve Immortal Ascension while the four regions could not?

Li Changfeng said coldly: "So, you strengthened the power of the Heavenly Tribulation."

"The purpose is to prevent Cultivators from our four regions from entering the Central Region, right?"

He Li nodded helplessly. This was a fact he couldn't deny.

Hmph!

Li Changfeng let out a cold snort, and He Li was struck as if by lightning, directly spitting blood and flying backward.

Already severely wounded, his condition worsened.

"What a Central Region, you yourselves live a carefree life."

"You can achieve Immortal Ascension whenever you want, while we are excluded!"

"I really want to kill my way to the Central Region right now and wipe out all those damn Immortals!"

He Li lowered his head, not daring to speak.

Li Changfeng was too terrifying, his strength was immense.

He Li felt that even an Earth Immortal might not be his match.

And every Earth Immortal, except for peerless Prodigies, had Cultivated for tens of thousands of years or more!

How old was Li Changfeng?

Judging by his bone age, he was only around thirty years old.

Without further lecturing He Li, Li Changfeng directly rushed into the lingering Tribulation Cloud.

He wanted to absorb the power in the lightning pool and receive the Heavenly Dao's baptism.

To transform the spiritual energy within his body into Immortal essence!

As for He Li, this Immortal from the Central Region's Tianlei Palace, he wanted to keep him captive.

To make him announce to the entire Southern Region the secret of why the Southern Region could not achieve Immortal Ascension!

For no other reason than to ensure that when they eventually attack the Central Region, the entire Southern Region can work together wholeheartedly.

And not be scattered like loose sand, to be slaughtered at will!

He Li looked at Li Changfeng in the sky, his face full of helplessness.

"I should have known not to come as a lightning envoy. This guy is too strong..."
