231: Chapter 231 Tribulation Transcending (Part 2)
How could Li Daoxuan possibly leave? He was determined to destroy this fellow, and he would not leave until he had killed him.
Thread of Fate controlled a Spirit Treasure Flying Sword, shattering the lightning surrounding the opponent and piercing straight toward his body.
"Damn it!"
The Shadow Sect Leader cursed under his breath and shifted his entire body, dodging the attack from Thread of Fate.
But right where he had just landed, eight Flying Swords of ordinary Spirit Treasure grade struck from eight different directions.
Seeing these nine Flying Swords, the Shadow Sect Leader was furious. These were Spirit Treasures! He didn't even have many of them, yet this Cultivator who had just reached the Undergoing Tribulation stage actually possessed nine.
But just as he realized what was happening and prepared to escape through the sky, a large seal smashed down from above his head.
Another one of Spirit Treasure grade!
The Shadow Sect Leader was on the verge of a breakdown. It wasn't that Li Daoxuan's attacks were too powerful, but rather that the Spirit Treasures in Li Daoxuan's hands made him incredibly jealous.
He instantly dodged the seal and quickly rushed out of the encirclement of the six Spirit Treasure Flying Swords. When he wanted to attack Li Daoxuan, he was left dumbfounded.
A long sword had appeared in Li Daoxuan's hand. It looked unremarkable, but the aura it emitted was incomparably powerful.
The Shadow Sect Leader cursed loudly: "Damn it, how can a beast like you possess such a treasure? This shouldn't be, this shouldn't be!"
Because he had already sensed the aura of this long sword; it was definitely an Immortal Artifact that surpassed a sentient Spirit Treasure.
Such a powerful treasure was actually in the hands of a Cultivator who had just reached the Undergoing Tribulation stage. If others found out about this, they would definitely surround and kill Li Daoxuan.
Li Daoxuan did not hesitate. The cloud sword in his hand instantly flew out of his grasp, striking toward the Shadow Sect Leader.
The Shadow Sect Leader wanted to escape, but he discovered that he couldn't move.
He had been locked onto by the Immortal Artifact; its powerful aura pinned him in place, unable to move at all.
Watching as the immortal sword was about to slay him, Li Daoxuan suddenly moved, appearing directly behind him.
One hand pressed against his lower back, and a massive suction force emanated from it.
An endless stream of energy flowed out from the Shadow Sect Leader's body and surged directly into Li Daoxuan.
Li Daoxuan's body slowly began to change. He had reached the first stage of the Undergoing Tribulation, and his body was automatically transforming into an Immortal Body.
The Heavenly Tribulation descended continuously. Whether it struck Li Daoxuan or attacked the Shadow Sect Leader, it was all converted by the Cloud Spirit into Body Tempering energy, which entered Li Daoxuan's body to help temper his Immortal Body.
The Shadow Sect Leader was panicked. Although the Heavenly Tribulation no longer posed a threat to him, the energy inside his body was vanishing uncontrollably, and he was still locked in place by the Immortal Artifact, unable to move at all.
This feeling of waiting for death while watching helplessly was terrible. The Shadow Sect Leader hated this feeling, but he had absolutely no way to stop it.
He felt his cultivation slowly declining, the energy within his body gradually disappearing, and his vital essence and spirit constantly dissipating; even his true spirit was in danger of being lost.
"No, spare me, spare my life!"
"I am willing to become your slave. I am a Cultivator at the Undergoing Tribulation stage; I don't want to die!"
"I beg you to spare me. I am willing to serve you like an ox or a horse; I beg you."
His pleas for mercy rang constantly in Li Daoxuan's ears, making Li Daoxuan somewhat annoyed.
However, in order to absorb his energy, Li Daoxuan endured it. A Cultivator at the Undergoing Tribulation stage possessed quite a bit of Immortal Dao energy within their Immortal Body. Although it wasn't true immortal power, it could still enhance his own Immortal Body.
Li Daoxuan felt his Immortal Body continuously growing stronger. At the same time, the third Heavenly Tribulation struck down.
Just when Li Daoxuan felt that the Heavenly Tribulation didn't have much power, the remaining six bolts of the tribulation seemed to know his thoughts. Without a moment's delay between them, they struck directly onto him one after another.
"Boom!"
Because of the powerful suction force in Li Daoxuan's hand, he and the Shadow Sect Leader were smashed together into the ground.
But even so, Li Daoxuan still did not let the Shadow Sect Leader go; this guy was too durable to absorb.
Because Li Daoxuan's hand remained pressed against the opponent, the powerful suction force would not stop until it had drained all the energy from his body.
Li Daoxuan couldn't be bothered to get up, simply letting the Heavenly Tribulation strike him while he was in the pit.
"No, Sect Leader, don't!"
"Quick, let's go save the Sect Leader! The Sect Leader cannot be harmed."
"Sect Leader! Charge, save the Sect Leader!"
Not far away, the Cultivators of Asura Hall who had already awakened saw Li Daoxuan being smashed into the ground by the Heavenly Tribulation. Just as they were preparing to charge toward Li Daoxuan regardless of the danger, Li Daoxuan's voice rang in their ears.
"Wait outside. If there are any Shadow Sect Cultivators who were not destroyed by the Heavenly Tribulation, remember to finish them off."
Hearing that Li Daoxuan was fine, the eight of them breathed a sigh of relief, their eyes locked tightly onto the Shadow Sect Cultivators.
The Shadow Sect Leader soon turned into a dried corpse, and Li Daoxuan's cultivation rose like the tide, breaking through directly to the Peak of the first stage of Undergoing Tribulation.
He was only a tiny bit away from breaking through to the second stage of Undergoing Tribulation; when that happened, he would need to undergo the second Heavenly Tribulation.
Li Daoxuan did not hesitate to take out many spirit crystals, holding them in his palm and frantically absorbing the energy within them.
The first nine bolts of the Heavenly Tribulation ended quickly, and the dark clouds in the sky began to disperse.
The Shadow Sect's base had become a scene of devastation, and every Cultivator inside the Shadow Sect had perished.
In fact, the lightning attacks they received were not powerful; if they had descended one by one, some people might have had a chance to survive.
But who could have imagined that the final seven bolts of the Heavenly Tribulation would descend without a single breath of time between them? This was truly terrifying.
"Boom!"
Just at this moment, Li Daoxuan broke through to the second stage of his Immortal Body, and the tribulation clouds that had been about to disperse in the sky gathered once again.
Compared to the previous tribulation clouds, this one was even more magnificent.
Li Daoxuan's voice reached the ears of the Asura Hall Cultivators: "Retreat ten miles."
Because those Cultivators of Asura Hall were also within the range of the Heavenly Tribulation's attack; if they didn't take this opportunity to leave, they would have no chance to escape later.
Hearing these words, the eight Asura Hall Cultivators retreated ten miles rapidly, staring blankly at the tribulation clouds forming in the sky once again.
"This, could it be that he is going to undergo the tribulation again?"
"Heavens. Is the Sect Leader this powerful?"
"Hahaha, heaven bless our Sect."
Li Daoxuan did not want them to reveal Asura Hall, so they referred to it as the Sect.
Otherwise, if someone with ulterior motives heard them, it would be troublesome. After all, the commotion caused here was far too great, and other Cultivators would definitely come to investigate.
Several major powers in the area had sensed the situation at the Shadow Sect and had sent Disciples to investigate, but the big shots of those powers did not come personally.
After seeing Li Daoxuan undergoing the tribulation, no one said anything.
After all, he was just a Cultivator at the Undergoing Tribulation stage undergoing his second Heavenly Tribulation; he could not affect their powers.
Within their powers, the strongest were already at the fourth stage of Undergoing Tribulation, they just didn't act easily.
Li Daoxuan ignored them. Several Spirit Treasure Flying Swords floated not far from these people; as long as they dared to act rashly, these Flying Swords would take their lives without hesitation.
The Heavenly Tribulation in the sky formed once again, and soon a bolt of lightning as thick as a bowl descended, striking directly onto his body.
Li Daoxuan did not use the cloud sword to block it because he had the Cloud Spirit, so there was no need to disperse the lightning at all.
The Cloud Spirit continuously injected Body Tempering energy into Li Daoxuan's body, while all excess lightning was blocked outside by it.
The second bolt of lightning followed closely behind, striking Li Daoxuan while the first bolt had not yet ended.
