Chapter 661 (2/2)

Very soon.

“Boom!”

The first bolt of Tribulation Lightning struck down, creating a pillar of light a zhang wide.

The Tribulation Lightning was very fast, and in an instant, it engulfed Ye Yun completely.

Seeing the falling Tribulation Lightning, Lin Jing was not at all panicked.

He was very clear that given the power of this bolt of lightning, it simply could not harm Ye Yun.

Three breaths later, the energy of the lightning dissipated, vanishing into the air.

And below, Ye Yun reappeared.

Just as Lin Jing expected, this first bolt of lightning was just an appetizer; it struck Ye Yun without even injuring him.

Without much respite, the tribulation clouds in the sky once again condensed, increasing the size of the cloud by a fraction.

In the midst of the tribulation clouds, the thunderous rumbling became even more frequent.

“Crack!”

The second bolt of Tribulation Lightning struck down.

It was not only more urgent than the first bolt but also significantly thicker.

Seeing the second bolt of lightning fall, the golden light reflecting off Ye Yun’s body became even brighter.

Just like the first bolt, the second bolt struck down, submerging Ye Yun entirely within it.

Within the tribulation clouds, the sky was filled with the shadows of lightning, and a lightning pillar several zhang wide stood tall like a pillar connecting heaven and earth.

This spectacular sight was in fact extremely dangerous.

In the midst of this pillar was Ye Yun, the one who had attracted this bolt of lightning.

Similarly, three breaths passed, and the pillar faded to reveal Ye Yun inside.

This time, the lightning had injured Ye Yun.

Lin Jing looked closely and saw that although Ye Yun’s wounds were evident, they were not serious.

Ye Yun had been injured by this second bolt of lightning.

Just like during Lin Jing’s tribulation, after being struck, arcs of lightning rampaged across Ye Yun’s wounds.

After the lightning passed, Ye Yun immediately sat down cross-legged to recover.

Among the elixir medicines Lin Jing provided Ye Yun, there was the Rejuvenation Pill for healing wounds and the Yellow Dragon Elixir for recovering spiritual power.

However, Ye Yun did not take any elixir medicines at this time.

Clearly, he planned to withstand the first three bolts of Tribulation Lightning with his own body.

As Ye Yun sat in meditation, his wounds slowly began to heal.

The arcs of lightning also gradually disappeared as he healed.

…

…

The third bolt of Tribulation Lightning was slower to arrive, taking substantially longer to condense than the first two.

By this time, Ye Yun’s injuries had almost healed, and he was about to conclude his meditation.

He was now looking up at the tribulation clouds in the sky, waiting for the third bolt of lightning to descend.

“Rumble rumble…”

“Rumble rumble…”

Within the tribulation clouds, lightning flashed continuously, and the color began to shift, displaying hints of blue.

The muffled thunder rolled ceaselessly within the clouds, yet it did not fall.

Lin Jing watched the tribulation lightning in the sky with slightly furrowed brows.

Judging by this, the power of the third bolt of Tribulation Lightning should be considerable.

Just as Lin Jing was furrowing his brows at the tribulation clouds, considering whether he should advise Ye Yun to take additional precautions,

Suddenly…

Ye Yun sensed a violent aura coming from the northwest direction.

The aura was strong, seeming to approach this way.

Lin Jing abruptly looked up toward the northwest direction, and without hesitation, he released his Divine Sense.

The range of Lin Jing’s Divine Sense was quite extensive.

After extending his Divine Sense, the sensation became even clearer.

Towards the northwest, there was a wild aura bursting forth, resembling not cultivators but rather Demonic Beasts in battle.

And the aura was extraordinary.

Clearly, the rank of this Demonic Beast was not low.

At this moment, Ye Yun was undergoing his tribulation, and it was a critical juncture; he couldn’t afford to be disturbed.

Therefore.

Lin Jing directly spoke to Yan Ming and Zhang Jian:

“Brother Yan, Brother Zhang!”

“Stay here and watch over him.

There seems to be some disturbance to the northwest; I’ll go take a look.”

Only then did the two of them look toward the northwest direction with blank expressions, unaware of anything amiss.

At this moment, Lin Jing then said to Ye Yun:

“This third bolt of lightning is extraordinary; it’s time to take the elixir medicine.”

Ye Yun turned his head to look at Lin Jing.

He then nodded.

He had already sensed the unusual nature of this third bolt of lightning.

Having had no such experience before, Ye Yun hesitated whether to prepare the elixir medicine in advance.

Lest the third bolt be too fierce and cause him serious injury,

If he were to sustain serious injuries under this third bolt, the next few bolts of lightning he would face would become even more challenging.

But if this third bolt wasn’t that strong, and he took the elixir medicine too early, then the effect of his Body Refinement would be lessened.

Hence, Ye Yun hesitated.

He indeed wanted to improve himself, but this improvement wasn’t worth risking his life for.

Now that Lin Jing had spoken, Ye Yun understood that this third bolt of lightning exceeded his ability to endure.

If he did not take the elixir medicine in advance, once the bolt struck, he would certainly be gravely injured.

And if he were severely hurt, facing the next several bolts would be all the more difficult.

Ye Yun did not dare to take a chance any longer and hastily took out the prepared elixir medicines from his Space Ring, then placed them into his mouth.

Seeing Ye Yun take the elixir medicine, Lin Jing finally felt relieved.

Then.

Lin Jing stepped forward, flying toward the northwest direction, the source of the fluctuations…
