Chapter 332 - Mental Demons and Lightning Tribulation (2/2)

All sects present thought about this, and for a time, the whole place remained silent.

Nobody remembered Jing Qi, who was still unconscious from shock.

Once Lonemoon had returned to Invincible Peak and placed Yi Qing on flat ground, he hurried to make a few lightning-attracting arrays. It mattered less at Core Formation level, but the Lightning Tribulation of Nascent Soul period was special. Without making any noise, who would believe that he was completing Nascent Soul Formation?

“Father Niu, what are you doing?” Shen Ying looked at Father Niu busying around, and her expression was blank.

“Making lightning-attracting arrays, of course!” Lonemoon rolled his eyes at her. “Even a blind man could realize that sword qi of his just now couldn’t belong to a Golden Core cultivator. So we must make him complete Nascent Soul Formation as soon as possible.” He was most familiar with the ways of immortal cultivators. Should Yi Qing keep being at Golden Core level, they would inevitably wonder where that kind of sword qi came from. They would definitely try to ask around. They weren’t afraid for themselves, but Honesty Sect were sure to suffer too. They were here for lodgment anyway, and couldn’t make the sect bear the burden for them.

“Oh.” Shen Ying nodded, took a bite of a fruit and said, “Must it be a red lightning?”

“Red?” Lonemoon stopped short. “What red lightning?” There was no such thing as a red Lightning Tribulation.

“Like that!” She pointed towards the sky.

Lonemoon was stunned. He looked up and saw that somehow large amounts of lightning clouds had suddenly filled the sky. Small flashes red lightning appeared among the clouds from time to time.

“Holy shit!” He was shocked. “How could there be a Lightning Tribulation? Didn’t you say that with his cultivation, he only needed to pass through the process smoothly?”

“I don’t know!” Shen Ying’s head inclined. “Maybe it’s different this time round.”

“Different?” Lonemoon was stunned. Speaking of which, the sword intent that Chef used just now was indeed different from the past. In the past, his sword intent was a giant golden sword, and it was only cultivated because Shen Ying taught him some ‘one strong man can overcome ten’ nonsense. Yet what appeared just now was in the shape of a dragon. It actually looked rather like Chef’s real body as a dragon. Could this be the reason the Lightning Tribulation was drawn?

But, whatever the case, there shouldn’t be a red Lightning Tribulation. It’s not like he himself never completed a Nascent Soul Formation. Regarding Lightning Tribulation, he also experienced quite a lot. Red lightning would only appear in…

His face whitened, as his eyes widened sharply. He looked in the direction of Chef in disbelief. Red Lightning Tribulation… He had only seen it in the Demon World. Why would Chef draw a demonic lightning?

His heart sank. He examined Chef’s body carefully, and indeed saw a hint of faint demonic qi. And Chef’s look didn’t seem right as well. Apparently, all his past rises in level were all finished with merely sleeping and waking. But his expression now seemed extremely painful, his forehead covered with sweat and his eyes closed tight, as though he was fighting something.

This is… Mental Demon Tribulation!

“Holy shit, Chef actually ignited Mental Demon Tribulation!” His eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief. “How can he possibly have a mental demon?!” Among the three of them, Chef must have been the one with the purest mind. It was like a straight road towards the end for him. By right, anyone could have a mental demon but Yi Qing! Why for just a simple repetition, he actually got a mental demon?

“What happened? Do you know what’s his mental demon?”

Shen Ying’s eyes narrowed, and she seemed to remember something. Only after a while did she reply, “Let’s see first.”

The first Lightning Tribulation already came down, and it hit Chef directly. The person who looked painful at first opened his mouth and spat out blood. His expression worsened.

One Lightning Tribulation following another fell, and his expression grew even more painful. His body was hurt all over, and his breath was very weak.
