Chapter 259: Tribulation Crossing
Soon, Elder Guan regained his composure.
So what if Ji Yang was at the Spirit Transformation Stage? He was already at the late Void Refinement stage; even if Ji Yang reached the Spirit Transformation Stage, he would not be his match.
Besides, at this moment of Tribulation Crossing, Ji Yang still had to face the power of the heavenly lightning.
At that time, Ji Yang would surely stop to focus on dealing with the heavenly lightning.
While he could not intervene during the Tribulation Crossing, he could prepare the Formations in advance, setting a trap. Once Ji Yang completed his Tribulation Crossing, it would be his turn to strike.
Dealing with a partially incapacitated Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator would be as easy as crushing a chick!
Thinking this way, Elder Guan showed a slight smile. For the moment, he did not rush to catch up but remained behind, maintaining a steady speed, not wanting to get caught in the lightning!
His earlier intention to kill Ji Yang faded at this moment. Compared to before, he was now more curious about the secrets Ji Yang held!
How could this person break through three realms in a row!
At this time, Ji Yang had no time to regard the relentless pursuit from Elder Guan behind him.
With the recent surge of spiritual energy in his body, he advanced straight into the Spirit Transformation Stage!
This was the result of cultivation points he had accumulated for a long time, and Ji Yang was not surprised by it at all.
Locked on by the heavenly lightning, he could clearly feel the power contained within the calamity clouds above, far greater than the lightning he faced when breaking through the Nascent Soul Stage!
Plus, with his Talent Jealousy, the power of the lightning was significantly boosted.
Yet, Ji Yang did not pay too much attention to it.
He had an exceptional physique; he was sure he could withstand the heavenly lightning.
Moreover, the divine power he obtained not long ago now had a place to utilize.
He wondered how effective it would be!
Compared to the heavenly lightning above, Ji Yang felt that Elder Guan behind him was potentially even more dangerous.
Ji Yang took a moment to glance back and saw that Elder Guan was not in a hurry to chase after him; it seemed he did not want to get caught up in his lightning.
This was good news for Ji Yang, but he also wouldn’t stop to focus on the Tribulation Crossing, giving Elder Guan any opportunity to exploit!
Elder Guan, seeing Ji Yang not only not slowing down but actually running even faster, couldn’t help but pause for a moment.
But soon, Elder Guan let out a cold laugh.
Let him pretend!
After the heavenly lightning struck down, he would see how Ji Yang would run!
Before that thought dissipated, a bolt of lightning as thick as an arm struck down from above Ji Yang.
The force of the heavenly lightning temporarily halted Elder Guan’s flight.
Even though he was at the late Void Refinement stage, facing the overwhelming heavenly might still instilled fear in him!
Perhaps this was also the reason he had been unable to break through the Void Refinement stage to reach a higher realm.
Even knowing this, many cultivators still could not overcome this deep-rooted fear! He was no different!
Seeing that the heavenly lightning was about to begin, Elder Guan slowed down, preparing to make some arrangements while Ji Yang was undergoing his Tribulation Crossing.
But when Elder Guan saw Ji Yang enduring the Calamity Clouds without slowing down, he let out a few light laughs.
He had never seen anyone so arrogant, disregarding the might of the heavenly lightning.
Other people were all silent with fear, preparing various methods to deal with the Calamity Clouds, and would never act so carelessly.
Just as Elder Guan was mocking Ji Yang’s youth, the Calamity Clouds struck down upon Ji Yang’s body.
The lightning came down from above, hitting him from head to toe.
Ji Yang, struck by the Calamity Clouds, momentarily froze as electric sparks danced all over him!
Countless forces of the Calamity Clouds wreaked havoc within Ji Yang.
For an ordinary cultivator, such a strike would plunge them into a state of eternal damnation! Even body-refining cultivators would not dare to face the Calamity Clouds head-on!
Seeing this sight, Elder Guan shook his head.
It was one thing to not stop the Tribulation Crossing, but to not even use any defensive methods was clearly courting death.
It seemed he would never uncover the secrets Ji Yang possessed!
As Elder Guan sighed, he saw Ji Yang, struck by the heavenly lightning, momentarily halt in mid-air, then speed away even faster, quickly widening the distance between them.
Watching the shrinking black dot, Elder Guan was stunned, unsure of what had just happened.
Only when he saw Ji Yang fading from his view did he react, accelerating with all his might to chase after him.
However, at this point, Elder Guan’s face turned pale; he simply couldn’t understand why Ji Yang ran even faster after being struck.
This was unacceptable—he had to uncover the secret hidden within Ji Yang!
Without hesitation, Elder Guan produced a beautifully patterned blue pill in his hand.
This blue pill was rich in spiritual energy, and upon closer inspection, a golden True Dragon was seen swimming within it!
This was a sign of the pill being alive; only high-level pills could exhibit such a strange scene!
This pill was called True Dragon Pill and could temporarily elevate a cultivator’s realm!
Though it could not allow him to break through to the Unity with the Dao, it was still extremely precious!
But right now, to quickly catch Ji Yang, he couldn’t care about that!
Pills could be bought again, but if Ji Yang got away, he would truly never uncover his secrets!
His instinct told him that if he didn’t catch Ji Yang, he would never have peace in this lifetime!
Originally, he planned to wait until Ji Yang finished his Tribulation Crossing before acting, but now he had changed his mind.
Even if he got caught in the Calamity Clouds, he had to seize Ji Yang first!
“Boom!”
With a flash of bright light overhead, the sound of heavenly lightning crashing struck Ji Yang’s ears once again.
After the sound faded, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bowl struck Ji Yang once more.
The force of the lightning surged into him, causing Ji Yang to shudder involuntarily, feeling a bit paralyzed.
As the electric sparks danced on his body, the lightning force surged in like a raging flood, wanting to sweep away everything in its path.
This lightning force had tremendous destructive power; even Ji Yang, with his robust physique, would be significantly affected.
But the next moment, Ji Yang silently activated the divine power he had recently obtained.
Soon, the force of the lightning wrecking havoc within his body began to diminish.
Upon closer examination, it was clear that this lightning force was being absorbed into Ji Yang’s body.
However, this was different from before when the lightning force would disperse after entering his body.
While it still had the effect of body-refining, it was not as effective as planting in the land for several days.
But now, with the aid of the divine power, these lightning forces remained hidden within Ji Yang’s body, concealed yet intact.
If Ji Yang were to use the Thunderous Power divine ability next time, these lightning forces would be gathered again, turning into an offensive strike!
After utilizing this divine ability, Ji Yang also discovered its downside: if his physique wasn’t strong enough, it would be difficult to conceal the lightning force within his body.
But who said he didn’t have a robust body!
With the lightning force dissipating, Ji Yang felt much lighter, and his speed increased even more.
He didn’t know when the Calamity Clouds above would end, but at this moment, all he wanted was for it to last a little longer.
When Ji Yang glanced back once more, he was surprised to find Elder Guan, who had been somewhat left behind, once again hot on his heels.
And now he was even faster than before!
