Chapter 1221: Life Replenishment

However, in retrospect, the fool was not Li Qiye, but them. The most foolish were the Teeming Fish. Their arrogance and aggressiveness only helped Li Qiye in the end.

“If I could have a share of this vitality, I would be able to live for another generation.” An ancestor murmured while feeling the abundant life force permeating through the world.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!” Thunder sounded in the sky with frantic lightning sparks. In the blink of an eye, a terrifying tribulation formed.

This tribulation coalesced and the entire world turned dark as if the end of days was approaching. Each lightning bolt could tear apart this world or blow up an ocean.

It formed incredibly quickly. Not to mention ordinary experts, even a G.o.dking would be absolutely horrified. They would have to calculate how long they could survive this tribulation.

A junior saw this tribulation and felt his legs go soft before murmuring in a daze: “What is that?”

“The heavens’ punishment...” An ancestor slowly explained: “This type of life liquid made from a billion existences is a heaven-defying item. It goes against the harmonious order of this world, so the high heavens will definitely not allow for such an item to be created. The liquid itself might be innocent, but the drinkers will be committing a heinous sin!”

A different disciple asked: “Will the Peac.o.c.k Tree be able to withstand this tribulation?”

“I don’t know.” This ancestor gently shook his head: “The stronger the person is, the stronger the heavens’ punishment will be. The tree’s original form is a treefather, thus it will have an invincible foundation. If it drinks this liquid of life, it will bring about a real heavenly annihilation! If it was someone weaker like a junior, then their seniors or experts could help them surpa.s.s this tribulation, but no one apart from an Immortal Emperor can help a treefather’s punishment!”

Everyone watched their mirrors with bated breaths. They wanted to see whether the tree would drink this pond of valuable liquid or not.

Li Qiye rushed to the sky after seeing the tribulation. He took out the jade bowl filled with the tears of mortals. At this time, he splashed it on the peac.o.c.k itself while the peac.o.c.k absorbed it all.

After doing so, the bird emitted a faint brilliance of a crystal clear shade. Each wisp of light seemed to be stained with tears, as if countless commoners had cried and prayed for its existence.

Li Qiye shouted while looking at the heavens’ punishment: “Let’s get started!”

“Roar!” The peac.o.c.k swallowed all of the treasure water in the pond and disappeared from sight. Next, the Peac.o.c.k Tree emerged before everyone again. It was still rooted in the earth.

At this time, a green light gushed out from its body. Each strand of green light was full of life. A mighty vitality surged like a storm as these bright strands wove together. The endless life force began to be digested and integrated itself into the tree.

“Rumble!” The punishment from the heavens finally descended. A gigantic lightning bolt came cras.h.i.+ng down, capable of splitting the Jade Sea into two or even piercing through it completely.

Countless existences in this region fell to the ground due to fear of this tribulation.

However, an incredible matter happened. Both the lightning bolts and thunder waves only managed to come within a few feet of the tree before being stopped. It seemed that the bolts were only this long, that this was the extent of the thunder.

“What’s going on?” Many people were startled: “The Peac.o.c.k Treefather is too powerful, even the heavens’ punishment can’t approach him!”

The spectators didn’t understand what was going on.

Eventually, a very ancient forefather noticed a clue and murmured: “It is not that the punishment can’t reach it! There is something protecting it that is untouchable, even by the Heaven’s Will! An impregnable law!”

“What kind of law or item can’t be shaken even by the will of the high heavens?” A junior was very curious.

Li Qiye sneered and coldly uttered towards the heavens’ punishment: “Will of the high heavens! d.a.m.ned old heavens, don’t forget, there are a few things that even the Heaven’s Will can’t violate. Many things can be destroyed or concealed, but not the truth observed by the world itself!”
