Chapter 473: Heavenly Fox, Frightening Lightning Tribulation!
There were two new wounds on Ling Yun’s face, and blood was pouring out from them. He stared coldly at Tokugawa Takeo’s dead body before lifting his head. “Pfft…” He spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood!
During the first clash with Tokugawa Takeo using his Devil’s Blade, the True Qi in Ling Yun’s body was left in a pathetic state. Moreover, he had already suffered quite a few internal injuries.
In order to ensure Little White could undergo her tribulation without any disturbance, Ling Yun went all out to stop Tokugawa Takeo. He even used his Ninth Killing Technique without thinking about defending himself at all. He didn’t even use his Stellar Condensation Technique!
Every one of the ten techniques of the Ninth Killing Technique could be considered a sure-kill technique. Tokugawa Takeo only managed to block three of his moves before he was no longer able to defend himself. He was instantly slaughtered by Ling Yun on the spot!
When Tokugawa Takeo knew that he was definitely going to die, he also gave up on defending. He used all his might and energy to execute his most vicious blade technique to fight Ling Yun!
Neither of them held back at all, only focused on injuring the other party. This resulted in both sides suffering and almost perishing together!
Even though Ling Yun didn’t use his Stellar Condensation Technique to protect his body, he had used a Gold Talisman and Defense Talisman secretly.
The tens of wounds on Ling Yun might be deep, but he didn’t suffer any fatal injuries. After all, Tokugawa Takeo’s hand was ripped off after Ling Yun completed his seventh move!
The external injuries that Ling Yun suffered weren’t that severe, but the internal injuries were much worse. Tokugawa Takeo was like a cornered beast at the brink of death. When the two of them were fighting to the very last breath, he was basically all over Ling Yun, throwing fists and kicks.
He left Xiantian True Qi in Ling Yun’s body, and the True Qi was wreaking havoc, destroying all of Ling Yun’s meridians!
“Dalang…” The Dragon Vein Sword fell to the ground, and Ling Yun dropped to the ground as well. He bent over and gasped for air frantically with an extremely pale face.
A huge number of Healing Talismans appeared in Ling Yun’s hand, and he quickly pasted it over his wounds. He shouted, “Activate” in a hurry.
All of the external injuries recovered very quickly as Ling Yun forced himself to sit straight. He forced himself not to look at Little White as he started circulating his Yin-Yang harmony balance.
While Bai Xianer was transforming and recovering, Ling Yun was also recovering. Fortunately, the third wave of tribulation was still brewing. Even though the power of heaven and earth might be exceptional, no lightning bolt descended yet.
At this moment, there was no longer any True Qi in his body. The only True Qi left in his body was that left behind by Tokugawa Takeo. The damage that Xiantian True Qi had done to his meridians was so severe that he needed to deal with it immediately.
Ling Yun’s exceptional energy center didn’t disappoint him as it started producing more Yin and Yang energy. The energy started surging into Ling Yun’s Twelve Principal Meridians and Eight Extraordinary Meridians.
As the Yin and Yang energy surged through Ling Yun’s meridians, it devoured and converted the violent True Qi the moment they came in contact. After that, the energy would continue to move forward!
The stronger the Yin and Yang energy in Ling Yun’s body became, the quicker it devoured the Xiantian True Qi. Just like that, Ling Yun managed to sort out Tokugawa Takeo’s Xiantian True Qi by removing it completely!
This was the third major usage of the Yin-Yang harmony balance. Any True Qi that entered the body could be devoured by the Yin and Yang energy and turned into energy for one to use!
The heavens were divided into Yin and Yang, so energy was naturally the same. Regardless of how one looked at it, the energy couldn’t escape the Yin and Yang. Ling Yun’s body was filled with Pure Yang Qi as well as some Yin Qi. Moreover, they were able to produce more independently, so he was naturally able to absorb other people’s True Qi in his body!
After a minor circulation, Ling Yun finally recovered a little bit of energy.
While his internal injuries were finally settled, Ling Yun’s body was still incredibly weak. He used the remaining energy left in his body to bring out his magical gourd.
The magical gourd contained over one thousand kilograms of dragon saliva. In Ling Yun’s current state, he needed both his hands to support the gourd. Following that, he started pouring dragon saliva into his mouth frantically!
“Gulu gulu gulu…”
He drank two to three kilograms worth of dragon saliva, and Dragon Spiritual Energy entered his body. Simultaneously, it started spreading throughout his meridians and eventually traveled into Ling Yun’s energy center!
The exceptional energy center instantly received the strength of the Dragon Spiritual Energy. The speed of circulation increased by multiple folds. At the same time, the dragon-shaped curve within the energy center became even more dazzling to the eye!
The dragon-shaped curve increased in size significantly, and the golden dragon head extended slightly towards Ling Yun’s tailbone once more. It almost dyed Ling Yun’s entire tailbone in faint gold.
The Yin and Yang energy in his body strengthened once more as the True Qi in his body recovered to five folds!
It feels like… I have the opportunity to charge into Physique Tempering Stage Seven… Ling Yun suddenly had this crazy idea and urge.
This was purely a feeling, like when one was feeling hungry or full. It was a natural feeling.
Ling Yun put away his magical gourd, deciding that it was enough for him. He picked up his Dragon Vein Sword and stood up.
One to two kilograms worth of Dragon Spiritual Energy wasn’t enough for Ling Yun to increase his level of True Qi to the tribulation limit. Moreover, this was a crucial period for Little White’s tribulation, so he was never going to break through at a time like this.
He casually took out a Clear Water Talisman to paste it on his head. A large, transparent water ball appeared on his head and washed off all the bloodstains on his face and body.
“Sigh…”
Ling Yun let out a long sigh as he looked at the incoming tribulation clouds. He could sense that the might of heaven and earth was increasing exponentially!
F*ck heavens! Do you really not want Xian Er to complete her transformation?
Ling Yun twitched his mouth as he cursed in his heart. Following that, he looked worryingly at Little White.
That is… When Ling Yun spotted Little White, he was completely dumbfounded!
Little White’s burnt bones had returned to being snow white. They were even emitting a sparkling gloss. Surrounding her were dancing flames like the multicolored sunlight of a moving sunrise.
Little White still had the body of a fox, and all four of her limbs were on the ground with her head facing the sky. She was spitting a red flow of air to refine a red pearl in front of her.
This pearl was only the size of a walnut. Little White was sending a fire-red flow of air towards the pearl to make it float in the air.
The fire-red airflow, which was coming out of Little White’s mouth, was absorbed by the red pearl. This resulted in an even more dazzling red color!
“Fire Spiritual Pearl?”
Ling Yun was muttering to himself in pleasant surprise. Soon after, he started laughing to himself as he realized that it wasn’t a Fire Spiritual Pearl. This was the nine-tailed celestial fox’s Heavenly Fox Demonic Core!
It turns out that Xian Er is still persevering. With the Heavenly Fox Demonic Core and the Eight Trigrams Formation in place, the probability of the tribulation being successful has increased significantly!
Ling Yun nodded in satisfaction as he continued to circulate his Yin-Yang harmony balance. He wanted to recover his True Qi to its original state just in case any unexpected matters occurred!
This was a battle between mortals and the heavens! Anything could happen!
“Boom…” The loud sound of thunder could be heard. It felt as though it was telling everyone that the third wave of tribulation was here!
Ling Yun moved his body closer to Little White by almost twenty meters. He knew that the third wave of lightning wouldn’t cover a large area. Or rather, it would definitely not exceed the boundary of the Eight Trigrams Formation.
As for the Shennong Cauldron, he couldn’t be bothered to put it away because the entire island was only left with him and Little White. Little White’s tribulation was much more important and urgent. Therefore, he simply left it lying there.
After covering the entire island, the sounds of thunder could be heard from the tribulation clouds. It was as though countless mystical dragons were awakening as thick silver bolts of lightning were forming one after another!
Ling Yun shivered subconsciously, unable to imagine how terrifying this wave of tribulation would be.
However, he wasn’t going to use his Mystical Dragon Howl again. This was a crucial time for Little White’s tribulation, so Ling Yun was naturally not going to disturb her.
Xian Er, you can do it! This should be the last strike! Ling Yun clenched his fists as he continued rooting for Little White in his heart!
As though she could sense Ling Yun’s thoughts, Bai Xianer turned to glance and nod slightly at Ling Yun.
Ling Yun smiled and nodded at her too. At the same time, he punched his fist into the air to show his support!
Suddenly!
The dark tribulation clouds were violently rolling around as countless lightning bolts sparked within the clouds. It looked powerful enough to split the blue dome of heaven. Eventually, they gathered in one spot to form the thickest lightning bolt confluence!
The gathering bolts were almost as thick as a mountain peak, and they rumbling before descending all at once!
“Kacha!” Ear-piercing thunder could be heard as a three-meter-wide pillar of lightning bolts struck towards Little White!
“F*ck!” Ling Yun couldn’t help but shout when he saw the immense lightning that struck Little White!
Such a frightening lightning bolt was something that even he might not be able to withstand, let alone Little White at her current state!
However, Little White wasn’t frightened at all. Her eyes were filled with unprecedented determination as the red flames enveloping her grew one fold. She used her Nine Star Studded Flash and welcomed the gigantic lightning bolt by flying towards it!
She flew over tens of meters!
At the same time, the Heavenly Fox Demonic Core in front of Little White emitted a brilliant and dazzling red color. With one strong blow from Little White, it released a four-meter-long red ray of light that formed a flaming red shield of protection around Little White!
Going against such power of the heavens, she was naturally going to give it her all as well!
“Boom!”
The three-meter-thick pillar of lightning bolts clashed with the red protective shield formed by the Heavenly Fox Demonic Core like a ferocious silver dragon!
“Kacha!”
The red shield was instantly destroyed by the lightning bolts, and the flaming red air flows around Little White’s body were turned into nothingness in an instant as well. Little White let out the most devastating cry as she fell from the sky!
“Bam!”
Little White fell heavily inside the Eight Trigrams Formation. The massive lightning bolt disappeared, though the sky remained dark and gloomy!
Ling Yun forced himself to open his eyes and look towards Little White!
“Success!”
Little White was struck down to the ground, and her body smashed into a rock, but she got back up almost immediately!
