Shi Lang held the body he refined in his hands as he walked through the void, and the first lightning bold crashed towards him with a bang. The sound was so loud that it shocked the void. Hao Mei had retreated but she was still around to see the situation and the young lady couldn’t help but clench her fists tightly.
The golden lightning bolt hit Amelia’s body, and the destructive energy charged through it. Shi Lang kept walking, he wasn’t even bothered to absorb the energy from the tribulation bolt. Why? The tribulation was akin to an energy that everyone craved for, however, it was so wild and fierce that the people who tried to absorb it more than their capacity would end up dying.
Shi Lang would have been on this list, had it not been for the cultivation method that he devised for himself. However, Amelia’s body was something that didn’t need any cultivation technique to absorb the energy of the lightning. The body had just been refined and the mechanism had yet to start. In a nutshell, this body was just like a life sized model of Amelia.
The heavenly lightning was the purest and the strongest source of energy that was needed to kick start the various functions of a body. The only thing that the heavenly lightning could not do was to bestow the body with a soul. This was why, Shi Lang was not worried about.
The lightning bolt caused the void to shake, but Shi Lang kept using his movement technique to the fullest while heading to the northern continent. As he moved, the black clouds followed him at a speed that was faster than ever. The second lightning bolt fell from the clouds, and hit the two. Shi Lang didn’t even pause, and kept moving. The body in his arms was still absorbing the heavenly lightning as if a lava consuming land.
The cells were a unit themselves and they were starved. They were a complex machine that was made with the help of four elements, if they were to put to work, they would first consume a lot of energy before they calm down and tune up. It was just like an engine.
Shi Lang took the third step in the void and he vanished from his spot. The next time he appeared, he was already a thousand miles away from the last position. The energy inside the body was still circulating, and Shi Lang took the fourth step. While the body was unaffected by the lightning strikes, it was still slow in processing the energy circulating inside it.
Shi Lang sighed and thought, ‘Looks like I would need to fasten my speed and then only can I get enough time for the energy to settle down organically.’
That said, he said, “Raksha.”
The sword materialized under his feet and a voice sounded in his mind, “I am aware, leave it to me.”
They shot through the void at a faster speed. Yes, Raksha was faster than Shi Lang himself. She was a spiritual object and her speed was faster than the Terran. As she moved through the void, she left a space fissure in her wake.
Raksha had a close bond with Shi Lang, she knew the importance Amelia had in his life, she was aware the pain he had been suffering all these years, she knew that even if the god of death came to face him, and tell him that his wife would not be returned, Shi Lang might destroy the underworld to get to her.
This was why, she didn’t even think when he called for her. The Terran knew of her temper, even when she was accompanying Tian Long, she didn’t allow the latter to ride her blade. She was a sword that was meant for slaying people and not a vehicle.
The black clouds chased them and the entire world could see the spreading tribulation clouds.
…
Shi Tao was watching all that happened through the monitoring stations they have set up in various regions and she was anxious. After such a long life, she again felt sweat in her palms. At this moment, a calm voice sounded beside her, “Eldest Sister, don’t worry, master will be fine.”
She turned to look around and found Yu Xeidi standing there. The former reached out and grabbed the latter by her ear and asked, “What made you think that your speech would get you out of trouble? You little trouble maker, first you went out of the Hall without any information and you even took Xiao Meng with you.”
Yu Xeidi winced and acted as if she was in pain and said, “I swear, I didn’t cause any trouble. I only sparred with the various scions and we learned from each other, Master had told me to reserve the killing skills for the Dao Plain. As for Xiao Meng, she became a sword grandmaster.”
Shi Tao was surprised, and then she looked behind Commander Silence, Xiao Meng was hiding behind the lady, trying to dodge the wrath of her eldest sister. Shi Tao narrowed her gaze and beckoned the latter over with her free hand and said, “You better confess what you have done, or I will ground you two in the Tartarus.”
The two shivered and became honest instantly. The elites of the Asura Hall feared a lot of things, and Tartarus training module was one of them, because the spirit phantom of the Shura himself was their opponent there.
…
Shi Lang suddenly said, “Raksha stop.”
The sword stopped and a loud bang echoed in the surroundings as a huge lightning bolt flashed through and hit Amelia, sending Shi Lang back by ten steps from the impact. However, the very next moment, he flew off again. Raksha said, “Lang, the Tribulation is getting stronger.”
Shi Lang chuckled and said, “It is going to be a close brush with death.”
The sword spirit also chuckled and said, “Well, I guess we have to defeat it yet again then.”
The two of them laughed as they moved quickly towards the north. There had been four lightning attacks, and the body was not filled with air, now the real tribulation would begin.
