I Might Be A Fake Cultivator Chapter 602

Chapter 602 - Unable to Give Up

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

An Lin stared down with incredulity at the lightning sword protruding from his chest.

The lightning sword was imbued with peerless sharpness as fearsome lightning might and devastating destructive power coursed through his whole body.

Did the Lightning Manipulation Technique fail?

No! He just hadn’t reacted in time!

The divine lightning during lightning tribulations would always try to strike the person transcending the tribulation, no matter where they get manipulated to.

However, right when An Lin manipulated the lightning sword toward the ninety-first level, it suddenly switched its target and aimed itself at him.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye, and An Lin was completely caught off guard.

Why would it strike him instead of Liu Qianhuan? He wasn’t the one transcending a tribulation.

An Lin was completely dumbstruck. Could it be that his Lightning Manipulation Technique was seen as a provocation by the divine lightning, and it was goaded into striking him instead?

That didn’t make any sense!

If the divine lightning really had emotions like this, he would’ve been struck a number of times already!

“An Lin!” Xu Xiaolan let out a cry of surprise as she witnessed An Lin being struck by the lightning sword before flying toward him.

Su Qianyun trailed along behind Xu Xiaolan, and even Xuanyuan Cheng and the others, who were situated outside the Immortal Spirit Tower, began to fly toward An Lin.

“Stay away! I’m fine, so stay away from me!” An Lin injected his vital energy into his voice to ensure everyone heard his yell.

Everyone flying toward him faltered upon hearing this.

It was only then that they noticed An Lin’s skin. The lightning sword had indeed struck him, but it had only made a hole in his clothes, and aside from a bit of charred skin, there appeared to be no substantial damage inflicted upon his body.

“Are… are you really ok?” Xu Xiaolan was still a bit concerned.

“I’m fine.” An Lin shook his head and said, “Aside from being a little numb, I’m absolutely fine…”

As he spoke, he extended both hands before crushing the lightning sword protruding from his chest.

“Gasp…” Everyone drew another collective sharp intake of breath.

He could even cop the tribulation lightning in someone’s stead and not get injured in the process! How amazing!

Liu Qianhuan turned her gaze toward An Lin, and a ripple of emotion flashed past her emotionless eyes.

She had a feeling she understood why the tribulation lightning would strike An Lin. She was trying to slice through all her obsessive tendencies, which were not only limited to her fixation with her mother but also with An Lin and everyone else.

When An Lin stood right before her, the lightning sword experienced the most drastic interference.

The tribulation lightning was the key for her to make the breakthrough, and it would naturally try to destroy everything that was holding her back.

What to do…

Liu Qianhuan suddenly discovered that it was not that easy to give up on some things.

Even right now, she still couldn’t forget her past. She couldn’t forget her mother, and she couldn’t forget An Lin as well as all her friends…

Perhaps when the last bolt of tribulation lightning fell upon her, she would then be able to slice through all her fixations.

However, she became scared for some reason. When she was faced with the possibility of truly forgetting everything, she cowered.

Boom!

The forty-second bolt of tribulation lightning fell.

Another lightning sword lit up the entire sky as An Lin focused his entire attention on using his Lightning Manipulation Technique. There wasn’t even a single moment of complacency.

The lightning sword changed course as he manipulated it past the roof of the tower.

Sure enough, just when the lightning sword approached him, it suddenly changed direction.

An Lin was prepared this time, and he immediately manipulated the lightning sword in another direction.

Whoosh!

The lightning sword was forcefully manipulated and had no choice but to strike Liu Qianhuan.

Liu Qianhuan was in the process of activating her sword mantra cultivation method, and the projection of an ancient sword enveloped her body as she raised her chin slightly to face the oncoming lightning sword.

The lightning sword struck her and exploded into countless specks of lighting as sword intent, which was imbued with the power of the Heavenly Dao, flowed through her body, bringing with it destruction and creation.

Success!

A relieved smile appeared on An Lin’s face.

During a tribulation transcendence, absorbing the power of the tribulation lightning was a vital step for cultivators.

Being reborn from the destructive power of lightning was the key to making a breakthrough. If that weren’t the case, An Lin would have just taken all the lightning strikes for Liu Qianhuan.

Boom boom boom…

A series of lightning swords fell, and Liu Qianhuan’s aura became more and more powerful.

Her sword intent was also awakened with the awakening of her Ancient Sword Dao Physique, and it burst forth from her body, piercing straight into the heavens.

Some of the weaker students looked up at the sword intent piercing directly into the sky, and their Dao hearts trembled as they were struck by the urge to kneel and bow.

After the forty-eighth bolt of lightning, the sound of booming thunder in the sky was already dying down.

An Lin looked up into the air with an expression of solemn anticipation.

The last bolt of tribulation lightning was about to strike…

An extremely formidable power began to accumulate in the air while boundless sword intent parted the dark clouds within five kilometers directly down the center. A white lightning sword began to take shape.

The lightning sword was over a hundred feet in length, and it colored heaven and earth white with its dazzling light.

The monstrous power housed within the sword gave everyone a sense of asphyxiation.

A series of cracks sounded as black spatial rifts began to open up around the sword, as if space itself was unable to bear its overwhelming power.

“This bolt of tribulation lightning… It’s extremely powerful!” An Lin looked up at the lightning sword with shock in his eyes.

Even with the body of the War God, he would likely be wounded by a bolt of tribulation lightning this powerful, so there was a chance that Liu Qianhuan would be unable to endure it.

No… she definitely wouldn’t be able to endure it!

Furthermore, for some reason, he couldn’t manipulate Liu Qianhuan’s tribulation lightning as comfortably as he did with his own; he was only able to control their direction, but not their speed as well as their power output.

This meant that this bolt of tribulation lighting would instantly strike Liu Qianhuan with all its power.

Kong Mohan had also realized this, and his expression shifted drastically as he said, “No, it’s too powerful! She’s not going to be able to take it!”

“Is it because of the earlier impediment posed by the Immortal Spirit Tower that the power of the tribulation lightning is enhanced to such a fearsome degree?” Bai Zhong’s face was etched with disappointment and sympathy, but he didn’t know what he could do.

In the distance, the Celestial Thearch also heaved a forlorn sigh as he said, “It’s not just the impediment posed by the Immortal Spirit Tower, it’s also because of the fact that the more supremely talented a cultivator is, the more fearsome their tribulation would be. After awakening the Ancient Sword Dao Physique, Liu Qianhuan’s aptitude for cultivation has become astoundingly prodigious, so her tribulation lighting is naturally going to be extremely formidable.

“On top of that, her foundation has yet to be perfected, and she hasn’t discarded all her fixations either. To try and borrow the power of heavenly tribulation to completely slice through her fixations is only going to result in a futile attempt that would only work to further enhance the power of the tribulation lightning. Taking all these factors into consideration, it looks like she is going to die here…”

The Celestial Thearch shook his head with another forlorn sigh.

If the tribulation had only just begun, he could still scatter the lightning clouds in order to save Liu Qianhuan’s life.

However, he could not interfere now that the tribulation had reached its final stage. Otherwise, he would suffer a backlash from the Heavenly Dao.

All the onlookers were all looking up at the lightning sword with anxious expressions. Even if they didn’t really know what was going on, they could still clearly sense just how powerful that lightning sword was. It did not seem to be something a human could contend with…

Liu Qianhuan’s features paled when she sensed the monstrous power gathered overhead.

She thought back to her past. She loved her mother so much, and she had so many valued and cherished friends, why would she want to completely sever all these emotional ties?

Taking an incorrect first step meant that all her subsequent steps were also destined to be wrong…

Liu Qianhuan realized where she had gone wrong. She was completely unprepared to part with all these emotions.

Having a dishonest mouth but an honest heart was the perfect analogy to describe her. She wasn’t even mentally prepared, so how was the tribulation lightning supposed to help her?

Gale-force winds howled as the dark clouds surged.

The white lightning sword hung in the sky, and her body was no longer standing proud and tall. She appeared to be a stray wicker on the brink of falling from the tree as tears rolled down her pale features.

She suddenly realized that she was scared of dying, that she too experienced remorse and a reluctance to leave this world behind.

Boom!

The white lightning sword descended while coloring the entire sky a vibrant white, as if it were bringing down a divine punishment.

Liu Qianhuan looked up at the bolt of monstrous oncoming energy with a resigned look in her purple eyes.

However, she suddenly saw a man turning back to smile at her with warmth and determination on his face.

The lightning sword fell, but it pierced through that man’s chest.

Her lips fell open slightly.

In the end, she was no longer capable of repressing her emotions anymore as a heartwrenching cry escaped her lips—”An Lin!!!”
