Chapter 983: Luo
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Chen nodded when he heard Xue Qiye’s words.
He was already very satisfied with his breakthroughs.
If he broke through again, it would indeed be disadvantageous to him. As the saying goes, there was such a thing as too much of a good thing.
Next, what he needed to do was to stabilize his cultivation foundation.
Ye Chen stood up and looked at the young woman who was guarding him. He took a step forward and was about to speak to her, but suddenly, a clap of thunder exploded in the sky!
After the thunder, the entire Blood Spirit Secret Realm seemed to shake a little, which made everyone’s hearts palpitate.
Ye Chen raised his head and saw thunderclouds covering a ten-mile radius.
Countless bolts of lightning surrounded him. Once they descended, the entire cave would be destroyed.
Most importantly, the magnitude of the lightning tribulation above his head was something he had never seen before!
“Oh no, I forgot. I advanced two major realms, so I naturally have to endure two lightning tribulations together… This is going to be crazy!”
Before he could finish speaking, countless bolts of violent lightning descended from the sky.
The dense lightning bolts descended from the sky and began to fuse, transforming into a ball of lightning that was almost a hundred feet wide!
The young woman was shocked beyond belief when she saw the scene before her. She was now completely certain that Ye Chen was the person her master had been looking for!
To be able to trigger such a strange lightning tribulation… Not to mention the entire Blood Spirit Secret Realm, even the experts outside might not be able to do so.
Ye Chen glanced at the young woman briefly, then prepared himself. He took a step forward and channeled his true qi into his feet, and his body began to float up.
He flew above the cave and then hovered in mid-air.
The young woman had protected him when he broke through, so he could not allow her to get hurt because of him.
In the air, the hundred-foot-long ball of lightning slammed into Ye Chen’s body, and he felt as if he was in a world of lightning.
The only thing he could do was to absorb the lightning frantically.
However, this time, there was too much lightning, and he could not absorb it completely. Every inch of his body was penetrated by the lightning bolts, and his body overflowed with lightning energy.
“What should I do?”
At this moment, a shocking dragon roar resounded in the sky!
Then, the blood dragon swooped down. Its body was several times larger than before. It opened its mouth to swallow the ball of lightning.
Just like that, the man and the dragon were enveloped by the lightning and endured the endless lightning bolts.
The blood dragon was strong and vigorous, and endless lightning bolts coiled around its body, making it even more powerful!
Scales with lightning patterns repeatedly appeared on its b.l.o.o.d.y body.
It was becoming more and more like a true dragon.
Boom!
Tens of thousands of lightning bolts descended from the sky. Amidst the darkness of the night, the ball of lightning was blindingly bright.
As the lightning was too violent, the barrier above the Blood Spirit Secret Realm showed signs of cracking, and earthquakes of varying degrees occurred in every corner of the secret realm.
This was the most shocking phenomenon since the formation of the Blood Spirit Secret Realm.
At the same time, in the stone chamber, the five Blood Spirit Clan members were still furious at the loss of their comrade, and swore to find the murderer at all costs.
However, no matter what methods they used, they did not discover any traces of the murderer. Seeing this, they knew that the situation in the secret realm had gone out of control.
All of a sudden, the stone room shook, and the countless surveillance screens were wiped out because of the energy shockwaves.
“Not good! The formation core we set up above the secret realm has been destroyed!”
“What strong shockwaves! There aren’t any earthquakes in the secret realm, so is this phenomenon related to an expert’s breakthrough?”
The old man’s face turned dark. He waved his hand, and the scene outside was revealed.
He stared at the huge ball of lightning and the blood dragon in the sky as his eyes narrowed.
“There’s actually a dragon. A divine dragon appeared and endured the lightning tribulation. Who exactly is the person within that lightning tribulation?!”
He had tried countless times to see past the lightning to investigate the person within, but it was futile.
“Could it be that the Blood Spirit Secret Realm is going to give birth to a Supreme Emperor realm expert? The intensity of this lightning tribulation seems to be even more terrifying than the breakthrough of a Supreme Emperor realm expert, though.”
The old man with a ruddy face became more and more worried. He forced out a drop of blood essence and it circled around his palm. His fingers moved quickly as if he was calculating something.
After an unknown period of time, his fingers suddenly stopped and he spat out a mouthful of blood essence!
“Not good! The divination is ominous! The five of us will most likely be killed by this person!”
“Let’s give up looking for the woman in red first and find this fellow instead. We can’t let him successfully break through!”
The remaining four figures sensed the seriousness in the old man’s tone, and without hesitation, the group headed in Ye Chen’s direction.
At the same time, countless geniuses from the Kunlun Mountains looked up at the sky.
Ji Siqing had just killed a demonic beast. She raised her head and stared at the ball of lightning.
The figure inside the ball of lightning was not clear, but it was very familiar.
“Ye Chen?”
Ji Siqing shook her head in self-mockery at the thought of this name.
“How could Ye Chen enter this secret realm? Moreover, this phenomenon is frightening, even for me. This person is likely stronger than I am, so it can’t be him, right?”
“Forget it. I have to increase my strength. There’s less and less time left in this secret realm. If I don’t get stronger soon, I won’t be able to protect him.”
After saying that, Ji Siqing put away her blood-stained sword and quickly went deeper into the forest.
She knew very well that somewhere in the depths lay an opportunity that belonged to her.
The ball of lightning in the sky lasted for two hours before it finally dissipated.
Ye Chen managed to absorb half of it, while the blood dragon helped Ye Chen absorb the other half. He had successfully endured the lightning tribulation…
“Phew!”
Ye Chen slowly descended from the sky. He looked at the blood dragon’s body that was wrapped in lightning, and realized that it was ten times larger.
Clearly the lightning had strengthened it significantly, and he felt that its strength had increased significantly.
“Return!”
At Ye Chen’s command, the blood dragon roared and obediently burrowed into Ye Chen’s body.
Everything was silent.
When Ye Chen landed, he returned to the entrance of the cave and looked at the young woman.
“Thank you for protecting me just now.”
“It was nothing. Even without me here, your breakthrough would have been successful.
“Oh right, you know my name, but I don’t know yours.”
“I don’t have a name,” The young woman shook her head and said, “But Master calls me Luo.”
