t. Liu Yunman and Xia Tian found a corner seat to sit down."Would you like something to eat" A pretty waitress quickly came over to serve them."Get me a steak." Turning towards Xia Tian, Liu Yunman as...Chapter 1465: Crossing the Tribulation
The sky had already brightened, and the sun was up. This bolt of heavenly lightning無疑無疑 was a clear blue sky thunderbolt, appearing unexpectedly without any warning signs, leaving Xia Tian and Ye Yumei completely unprepared.
In fact, even if they had noticed the lightning descending earlier, it would be difficult for them to prepare, as Xia Tian was still administering acupuncture to Ye Yumei. At this moment, neither of them could move; otherwise, the current acupuncture session might fail.
The bolt of heavenly lightning instantly arrived above Ye Yumei's head. However, just before it struck her head, the lightning inexplicably veered off course and landed on Xia Tian instead—more precisely, on his hand—and even more precisely, on the silver needle in his hand!
With its violent power surging into him, most of it entered Xia Tian's body while a small portion seeped into Ye Yumei's meridians. Under the influence of the ice and fire spirit energy within Xia Tian’s body, this violent power instantly became milder, ultimately being mostly retained in his body to merge with the ice and fire spirit energy. A minor part remained inside Ye Yumei’s body, also fusing with her true qi.
The power of that bolt of heavenly lightning was thus completely dissipated. However, it wasn't just a single strike; soon after, another bolt came down. This time, having learned from the previous experience, Xia Tian remained calm and let the second bolt hit his hand without flinching.
The third strike, the fourth... With every bolt of heavenly thunder that struck, Xia Tian's cultivation began to rise rapidly. After the ninth bolt of lightning descended, Xia Tian's cultivation finally leaped up to the Tribulation Transcending realm!
"Leggy Girl, because of you, I was hit by nine bolts of lightning. You'll have to accompany me for a thousand years or so, right" Xia Tian said before he prepared to retrieve his needle, but thunder rumbled in the sky again and another bolt of heavenly lightning struck.
"Not over yet" Xia Tian was stunned, then he realized that this time, the heavenly lightning had aimed straight at him. At this point, he understood that the previous nine bolts of lightning were obviously Night Jade Beauty going through her tribulation, but now, it was his turn to go through his tribulation. However, whether it was him or Night Jade Beauty experiencing their tribulations, all the lightning struck only him.
"Even heaven is jealous of me!" Xia Tian muttered to himself; he wasn't worried about it at all. As expected, after the first bolt of heavenly lightning, the ice and fire靈氣soon transformed into spiritual energy that helped increase his power, just like before. Ultimately, this nine bolts of lightning all turned out to be heavenly treasures bestowed upon him to help enhance his cultivation abilities. He even wished for the lightning to strike more times, but alas, after this round of nine bolts of lightning, he waited for several minutes and no further lightning struck.
Xia Tian finally retracted his silver needle with a slightly regretful look: "Leggy Girl, it seems that we have both successfully transcended our tribulations. We can be considered half-real deities now"
"Legend has it that one must go through nine heavenly trials to truly become a deity. However, no one in the Cloudland of Immortals has ever truly become an immortal before, so this is merely hearsay without anyone able to verify it. As for whether there's actually a true world of immortals, no one knows either." Night Jade Beauty said indifferently: "If there really is such a thing as an Immortal World, I guess that when you perform the Eighth Needle against Heaven, you'll be truly ascending to heaven. The phrase 'Eight Needles Against Heaven' means nothing more than achieving immortality by transcending heaven."
"Maybe, it's not recorded in the needle techniques," Xia Tian thought for a moment and said, "However, regardless of whether the eighth needle can really allow me to ascend to the Immortal World or not, I won't use it. I have no interest in that world; I'd rather stay here with my immortal sister and my wife, ah, and my long-legged little sister."
As he spoke, Xia Tian grinned at Ye Yumei and wrapped his arms around her waist, which was incredibly slender and soft. Although Ye Yumei is now a Nirvana Realm cultivator, she still did not dodge Xia Tian's embrace; in fact, her cultivation level is no longer as high as his since the eighteen bolts of heavenly lightning were almost entirely transformed into icy and fiery spiritual energy left within Xia Tian’s body, making him slightly more powerful than Ye Yumei.
Of course, it was only slightly higher. If Ye Yumei really wanted to dodge, she could still do so.
"They're here," suddenly said Ye Yumei. At that moment, several beautiful figures were rapidly flying towards them; the white-robed immortal woman in front was Yue Qingya, followed closely by Li Meng and Song Yumei among others.
"Xia Tian, Xia Mei, did you succeed" Yue Qingya quickly approached them and asked anxiously.
The heavenly lightning earlier naturally alarmed all of them. However, seeing that the two were unharmed, everyone else relaxed as well.
Night Jade Beauty nodded and said indifferently, "Now even if a hundred Asksky Marquises came here, I could instantly annihilate their souls and bodies. All that’s left is to wait for him."
"Wow, great! Now I can bully people everywhere without fearing anyone!" Willow Dream cheered.
The other women were speechless; this Dream Dream sister always wanted to bully others.
"Little Mei, your stone house was destroyed. Why don’t you come live with us" Moon Qingya looked at the stone house that had been shattered by lightning and spoke up.
Night Jade Beauty hesitated slightly before finally nodding her head.
Green Peak Village was hit by heavenly thunder early in the morning, causing a lot of discussion among the villagers. Later on, rumors spread that there were immortals undergoing tribulation trials on the mountain. In fact, this was just something the village people deliberately said to add an aura of mystery to Green Peak Mountain and attract more tourists. However, the person who came up with this idea never imagined that it would actually be true—someone really was undergoing a tribulation trial on the mountain.
And on a night after that, Qingfeng Mountain once again rumbled with thunder. Fortunately, it was already raining, so no one paid much attention. What they didn't know was that someone was actually undergoing their tribulation again this time, but the person this time was Yue Qingya.
The summer on Qingfeng Mountain was a bit depressing. The first thing that made him depressed was that Old Man Wenti Jun still hadn't arrived. Earlier, they didn't dare waste any time and quickly increased their cultivation levels to be able to defeat Wenti Jun. However, they never expected that more than half a month had passed and Wenti Jun still hadn't appeared. They were unsure whether they underestimated Baitian Wolf or overestimated Wenti Jun.
The second thing that made him slightly depressed was that the long-legged girl still wasn't very obedient. She always refused to tell him how to take off her thousand-knot feather robe, and she also didn't actively undress herself anymore. Thus, his plan of having her accompany him for a whole month naturally fell through. The only thing he could be somewhat consoled by was that she had accompanied him for several days.
Eventually, Xia Tian first raised Yue Qingya to the Tribulation phase and then raised the cultivation levels of the other wives to the Splitting Spirit phase. Afterward, there wasn't any further increase because Yue Qingya told him that increasing their cultivation too much at once wasn't necessarily a good thing. She believed that having everyone stay in the Splitting Spirit phase for a while to gradually get used to it would be better.
The group stayed on Qingfeng Mountain for some time, but there was still no news of Wenti Jun, which made Ye Yumei and Yue Qingya very puzzled. However, they could do nothing about it since if Wenti Jun didn't come to them, they couldn't go find him either. Of course, with the formidable cultivation levels of Yue Qingya and Ye Yumei now, as long as Wenti Jun appeared in this world, they would be able to quickly discover him. Therefore, they weren't worried that Wenti Jun would pose a threat to others. It was just that without resolving this matter, everyone couldn't truly settle their minds.
Ye Yumei used her divine sense to scan everywhere but found no traces of Nie Zixiong throughout China, which made her somewhat doubt whether Nie Zixiong had disappeared or not.
Night Yu Mei, who had wanted to find out about the whereabouts of Lord Asksky from Nie Zixiong, could only give up. Everyone else started leaving Green Peak Mountain and began returning to the secular world. Everything returned to normal; they continued with their previous activities. The saying "Great seclusion lies in the midst of the city" perhaps now fit them.
Time flew by, and it was already early July.
The Xi Du Jiao Da University in Xi Du City officially began its summer break on this day. Some local students had started preparing to go home; An Xin was also among these students.
Moments like this saw many people staring at the side of An Xin, not her but rather the stunning beauty wearing a jade green palace gown beside her. Although An Xin was beautiful, she paled in comparison to the woman next to her. Moreover, rumors had spread for the past few months that the former campus queen, An Xin, had become a fallen flower, thereby reducing her appeal to male students of Jiao Da University. Consequently, everyone's attention shifted to this palace-dressed beauty.
In people’s memories, this palace-dressed beauty had been around for at least a month but no one knew her name until now. However, she did have a nickname: Her Majesty, simply because An Xin was heard calling her that by more than one person.
When the palace-dressed beauty first appeared alongside An Xin, some people attempted to find out information about her through An Xin. They suddenly realized that the once pure-hearted campus queen had become the most violent and aggressive one now; anyone who got close to this palace-dressed beauty was beaten away by An Xin before they could even approach her. Over time, nobody dared to get close anymore, only observing them from afar when they appeared.egan to wind around Qingfeng Mountain like a ring road."The path above seems to have been constructed by someone," Zhao Yujiej thought, feeling confused. It wasn’t unusual for mountain paths to be bui...
