Chapter 117 99 Heavenly Tribulation
As soon as the Red Flame Ancestor said this, there was silence everywhere and no one responded to him.
However, secretly, the spiritual consciousness of many cultivators is abnormally active.
Most of Liu Yishu's mind was on Xu Weichen, but he also used a wisp of his consciousness to lock onto the Red Flame Ancestor, so he could hear everything the other party said clearly and guessed his purpose.
But Old Ancestor Chi Yan thought he had locked onto him, but he didn't know that it was just a trap set for him by Liu Yishu to interfere with his spiritual sense. When Old Ancestor Chi Yan focused most of his mind on the fake him, he had already quietly arrived near Old Ancestor Chi Yan.
"That person is Xu Weichen's beloved disciple!" Feeling that he had been preparing for this for long enough, the old ancestor Chi Yan suddenly pointed at the figure in the crowd and shouted loudly.
His shout was so sudden that many cultivators who had been prepared subconsciously looked in that direction.
Some people present had seen Liu Yishu, who was following Xu Weichen, before, and knew that he was not even a Jindan Zhenren. When they saw where the Red Flame Ancestor was pointing, they rushed over without hesitation.
Once one person takes action, other monks who have the same idea will naturally not want to be left behind and will rush in that direction, fearing that they will be overtaken by others.
The Red Flame Ancestor stared at that place nervously, concentrating his attention and not daring to breathe.
Then he found that he really couldn't breathe.
Not only could he not breathe, he couldn't even make a sound.
"Old man, are your eyesight not good because of your age? I'm right next to you, why are you pointing somewhere else?" Liu Yishu said with a smile.
However, to the Red Flame Patriarch, his voice sounded like the death-demanding Yama, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Hand over the Vermillion Bird Seal and I will spare your life!" Liu Yishu didn't want to scare him anymore and said directly.
The only part of Old Ancestor Chi Yan's body that could move at this moment was his spiritual consciousness. He kept trying to use his spiritual consciousness to drive the Vermillion Bird Seal.
As long as he could summon the Vermillion Bird Seal, he would be able to break the pressure that this person had put on him. There were so many immortal cultivators gathered here, and as long as he could make a sound, he would surely attract other cultivators to deal with this person, and he could take the opportunity to escape.
However, imagination is beautiful and reality is cruel. Old Ancestor Chiyan tried hard for a long time, but the Vermillion Bird Seal in his sea of consciousness did not move at all and was completely out of his control.
"There's no point in keeping things that don't belong to you. Just hand them over and save yourself the trouble." Liu Yishu said leisurely.
Facing such a Liu Yishu, Patriarch Chi Yan was terrified from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to hand over the Vermillion Bird Seal, but now the Vermillion Bird Seal was completely out of his control. He couldn't hand it over even if he wanted to!
However, when he was thinking this, the Vermillion Bird Seal moved instead and appeared directly in front of Liu Yishu. Old Ancestor Chi Yan could even see some impatience and excitement in its movements.
Seeing this scene, Old Ancestor Chi Yan was completely in despair.
"So good!" Liu Yishu praised with a smile, raising his hand to take the Vermillion Bird Seal and play with it.
Although the Vermillion Bird Seal in Liu Yishu's hand seemed unwilling to be played with by him, it was not really resisting. It was like a child who was throwing a tantrum with the adults at home.
Liu Yishu put away the domain that suppressed the Red Flame Ancestor and said to him nonchalantly: "The fight between immortal cultivators should not involve mortals. Remember this and get out!"
The pressure dissipated, and the Red Flame Ancestor looked at Liu Yishu in disbelief. He said nothing, but fled from here as quickly as possible.
After discovering that the person they had attacked was not Liu Yishu, the commotion subsided and all the cultivators turned their attention back to Xu Weichen who was undergoing the tribulation.
At this time, there were more than seventy lightning strikes.
Because the pressure of the thunder was becoming more and more terrifying, the monks who were watching retreated a long distance to avoid being affected.
As for Xu Weichen, who was at the center of the thunder, although he had some lightning-attracting magic tools to share some of the damage for him, the thunder from the sky had reached a point where it was no longer something those magic tools could withstand. Most of the power of the thunder still struck him, and he looked extremely miserable.
"It's actually the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation. Isn't this the immortal tribulation during the tribulation period? Xu Weichen is only going through the thunder tribulation of the Void Refinement Period, right?" a cultivator asked in a tone of doubt.
"After the nine-nine heavenly tribulations are over, will Xu Weichen be able to ascend to heaven in one step?!"
"If you ask me, at this rate, there's a good chance that he'll be chopped into ashes!"
"Do you think it's because Xu Weichen relied on the spirit core to ascend, so he was punished by the heaven?"
"It is very likely so! In the past few days, several monks who were absorbing spirit cores outside the bustling city have been turned into ashes by thunderbolts when they were promoted!"
"The life span of a Spiritual Transformation is three thousand years. Isn't it better to just practice diligently? It turns out that you are still too young and too eager for success. What a pity!"
Liu Yishu watched silently. He knew very well where Xu Weichen's limits were. Not to mention that the Heavenly Dao did not dare to really kill Xu Weichen, the Vermillion Bird Seal in his hand could also share the pressure for Xu Weichen at the critical moment.
Soon, eighty lightning bolts had struck, leaving only the last one.
Between heaven and earth, nine is the extreme number, and the nine-nine heavenly tribulations are the limit of what the Heavenly Dao can inflict.
But the same thunder can have completely different power.
It was obvious that the Heaven wanted Xu Weichen to suffer, so this last thunder began to accumulate energy.
The monks who were watching had to retreat a hundred miles again and could only watch from afar.
No one was in the mood to chat anymore.
Although they did not want another cultivator as powerful as the Red Flame Ancestor to appear in the world of immortal cultivation, witnessing with their own eyes a genius who had the potential to become an immortal die under the thunderbolt would also make them feel a sense of sorrow.
If even someone as talented as Xu Weichen can't break through the shackles, what can they do?
There is absolutely no hope!
Liu Yishu felt this sad and desperate emotion and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Cultivating immortals is a path that goes against the will of heaven. With such an unstable mind, how can one seek immortality?
The exhaustion of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is certainly one of the factors that prevent mortals from becoming immortals, but their own character and fragmented Taoism are also stumbling blocks that hinder their progress.
The last thunderbolt took half an hour to brew, so long that Xu Weichen had used this free time to repair most of his injuries before the thunderbolt struck down with a devastating force.
Some monks could no longer bear to watch.
Even at a distance of a hundred miles, the pressure of the thunder made it hard for them to breathe. The power of heaven was so overwhelming that Xu Weichen was definitely doomed.
Finally, another genius is about to fall.
"It's finally your turn to show your talent!" Just as the thunderbolt was about to strike Xu Weichen, Liu Yishu threw the Vermillion Bird Seal in his hand out.
So, in the sky full of purple lightning, the cultivators who were watching Xu Weichen's tribulation were fortunate enough to witness the most shocking scene they had ever seen in their lives.
A huge bird bathed in flames spread its gorgeous wings, let out a high-pitched and crisp cry, and faced the vast power of heaven without hesitation.
