Chapter 695 - 327: Intervening in the Profound Immortal Thunder Tribulation_2
Of course, when Yu Yuanwu heard about this, he was stunned for quite some time.
Even Yu Yuanwu had not anticipated that Lu Yi could resurrect a cultivator. Let alone him being a True Immortal, even the Yu Family Ancestor, an existence at the Immortal Venerable Level, could not resurrect a living being.
Yuan Wu and others recovered and repeatedly expressed their gratitude, “Thank you, Young Master Lu!”
Lu Yi shook his head, looking at the distant Heavenly Tribulation. At that moment, the Heavenly Thunder had already penetrated Nuke’s defenses, and streaks of thunderlight, containing the Power of Destruction, struck him.
Nuke’s body showed patches of char, and his vitality gradually weakened.
He coughed up blood repeatedly, his face filled with reluctance, “Damn! I didn’t expect to encounter such an accident…”
Lu Yi pondered for a moment, then disappeared on the spot, reappearing amidst the dark clouds.
The still-struggling Nuke was stunned.
Yuan Wu and others in the distance were equally stunned.
“???”
Everyone looked at Lu Yi in the clouds, their minds filled with expletives.
What the hell? Lu Yi actually ran into the middle of the Heavenly Tribulation?!
Doesn’t he know that when a cultivator is crossing Tribulation, any interference from outsiders will cause the Heavenly Tribulation to intensify enormously?!
Nuke, initially still struggling, was instantly dumbfounded and nearly gave up his effort.
He twitched the corner of his mouth, confused, “Young Master… do you hate me this much? To perish together with me, given your stature, isn’t it a bit too wasteful?!”
Lu Yi paused, “I’m here to save you.”
“Save me?” Nuke was utterly bewildered.
Boom!!
The Heavenly Tribulation sensed Lu Yi’s entry, the dark clouds surged, and violent masses of purple-red Heavenly Thunder roiled, amidst which appeared various forms of Mutant Thunder Tribulation.
The oppressive power of the Heavenly Thunder exploded at a terrifying speed.
Under such oppressive force, Lu Yi, who was still managing to support himself, immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his expression weakened.
He looked at the vast amounts of Exotic Heavenly Thunder in the thunderclouds with a startled expression, feeling a dryness in his throat, “…Is this your way of saving me?”
Lu Yi nodded seriously, “Yes, waiting for you to die and then reviving you seemed too troublesome, so I thought it better to help you cross the Tribulation.”
Nuke: “???”
Lu Yi’s words had too many points to critique, and he didn’t know which to address first.
But it no longer mattered, nothing mattered anymore.
This was Mutant Thunder Tribulation! And there were so many types!
I’m doomed either way; let it be, then.
Nuke gave up thinking.
Boom!!
Heavenly Thunder surged, pressing down towards both Lu Yi and Nuke.
Nuke slowly closed his eyes, waiting for death’s arrival.
At that moment, Nuke felt an incredibly terrifying aura burst forth, so powerful that it seemed as if the ancestor of the Bolos Clan stood before him.
An aura of the Golden Immortal Level!
Nuke’s eyes snapped open, looking towards the direction from which the aura emanated—it was Lu Yi!
At that moment, Lu Yi was surrounded by a myriad of mysterious and indeterminate Tao Patterns, and Immortal Spirit Qi almost turned into a fog, enveloping his body.
His aura was vast and ancient, like a starry sky, a world quietly revolving in front of Nuke.
Lu Yi reached out towards the Heavenly Thunder.
Dozens of Mutant Thunder Tribulations, like tame sheep, were grasped by an irresistible force and then absorbed into the misty interior.
Nuke felt as his worldview was shattering.
“What the f***?!” Nuke, who always remained calm even in the face of death and had never sworn before, really couldn’t hold back this time.
What the hell is this?! Dozens of types of Mutant Thunder Tribulations, capable of instantly destroying almost any Profound Immortal, were just absorbed like that?!
Nuke’s scalp tingled as he stared at Lu Yi in the clouds, wanting to see if such Heavenly Thunder would destroy him.
However, that terrifying Heavenly Thunder had by now been completely absorbed by Lu Yi.
Lu Yi closed his eyes and was feeling the Tao Patterns contained in the Heavenly Thunder.
However, soon, Lu Yi opened his eyes with a hint of disappointment.
As expected, even with his involvement, the Tribulation for a True Immortal breaking through to the Profound Immortal Realm was still on the level of Laws, and there was no way to elevate it to the level of Tao Origin.
And these Laws, for Lu Yi, were merely visible forces.
Most of them he had already mastered to perfection, and a few he had not yet perfected did bring him a bit of minor gain.
But that was it.
Instead, the task he had set up before entering offered even more substantial rewards.
Lu Yi shook his head and reached out again. This time, he directly pulled the yet un-fallen Heavenly Thunder from the dark clouds.
These Heavenly Thunders had a certain self-awareness under the Tao and were struggling continuously with thunderous roars, desperately not wanting to be pulled out of the dark clouds.
However, under the force of Lu Yi, these struggles were futile, and a large amount of Heavenly Thunder was pulled out of the storm clouds and absorbed by Lu Yi.
Lu Yi continued to contemplate the Laws he had not yet perfected.
Nuke had become numb.
Similarly numb were Yu Yuanwu, Yuan Wu, and others in the distance.
They had not expected Lu Yi to enter the Heavenly Tribulation, much less that he would absorb the Heavenly Thunder containing dozens of types of Exotic Heavenly Thunder like this.
As if he was not absorbing a Tribulation at all.
Yu Yuanwu stared wide-eyed, muttering to himself, “…truly worthy to be my brother-in-law.”
Yuan Wu and others displayed a stupefied expression, watching Lu Yi in the distance absorbing the Tribulation, temporarily at a loss for words.
Before long, Lu Yi had completely absorbed the Tribulation.
The dark clouds in the sky dispersed with the Heavenly Thunder.
Lu Yi opened his eyes, rather pleased with himself, having absorbed so much Exotic Heavenly Thunder, he had significantly improved his yet to be perfected Laws, achieving Perfection in several more.
He clapped his hands, looking towards the stunned Nuke, “How about it? Did you break through?”
Nuke snapped back to reality, sensing his state, a look of ecstatic joy appeared on his face, “I did break through! Truly broke through!”
Nuke initially thought he would die under the Tribulation, but he had not expected to survive the Tribulation in such a manner, which was more effortless than any previous Tribulation Crossing he had experienced!
He bowed deeply to Lu Yi, “Thank you, Young Master Lu. If it weren’t for you, I would certainly have perished under this Tribulation.”
Lu Yi waved his hand, “Since you follow me, as long as you remain loyal, I will naturally help you.”
Nuke, recalling the majestic sight of Lu Yi grabbing the Heavenly Thunder, said with reverence, “How can that be, Young Master Lu? Not only did you enable me to break through my bottleneck swiftly, but you also saved my life. I, Nuke, swear by my Tao Heart, I will never harbor any disloyalty towards Young Master Lu!”
Lu Yi nodded, “Mm, you just broke through, go back and consolidate your Realm first.”
“Yes,” Nuke nodded.
He waved to Yuan Wu and the others, who flew over, also expressing a flood of gratitude towards Lu Yi.
Lu Yi merely waved his hand, allowing these Cultivators to leave.
Yu Yuanwu also flew over to Lu Yi, his face bearing a peculiar expression.
Lu Yi, somewhat puzzled, “Yuanwu, why are you looking at me like that?”
Yu Yuanwu shook his head, “…brother-in-law, you’re becoming more and more monstrous.”
Lu Yi frowned, “Are you cursing me?”
Yu Yuanwu hurriedly shook his head, “How dare I? I just think it’s outrageous that you can intervene in someone else’s Tribulation and even help them break through.”
Then Yu Yuanwu thought of something, laughing happily, “The next time I undergo Tribulation, brother-in-law, you must stay by my side. If I can’t handle the Tribulation, I’ll rely on you.”
Lu Yi smiled wryly, “It’s best to depend on oneself for Tribulation Crossing. Let’s go, let’s go back.”
“Don’t say that, brother-in-law, my life depends on you,” Yu Yuanwu clamored as he followed Lu Yi.
…
A year later, Nuke consolidated his Realm and emerged from seclusion.
In the hall, Yuan Wu and the others were already waiting.
“Young Master.” They looked at Nuke, their expressions excited.
They understood that their Young Master had broken through to the Profound Immortal Realm in just over five hundred years, a progress sufficient to position him as the primary successor of the Bolos Chamber of Commerce!
And as Nuke’s followers, their own status and positions would naturally rise as well.
Nuke glanced at them, smiled slightly, “Let’s go, back to the clan land, I want to see what expressions my brothers will have when they see I have become a Profound Immortal.”
