Chapter 297 Senior Brother, I Must…
“Why did the Heavenly Tribulation split?”
Jiu Yushi asked in a timid tone. The immortals from the Immortal Du Sect, who had quietened down because of the changes in the Heavenly Tribulation, immediately regained their senses.
The small gray cloud had already flown above Li Changshou’s head.
The gray cloud looked ordinary, but as long as the Qi Refinement cultivators tried to investigate with their immortal senses, they would feel a cold, powerful, and obscure Dao rune.
“Heavenly Punishment?!” Jiang Lin’er was the first to react. “Why would the Heavenly Punishment go to Changshou when it’s Ling’e’s Tribulation Transcendence?” A single stone caused a thousand ripples. The cultivators of the Immortal Du Sect, who were originally hiding in the mountain-protecting array formation or outside the sect, were now discussing.
The legendary existence of the Heavenly Punishment made them feel… that it was very rare.
The human race’s destiny was flourishing. As the protagonist of the world, they were protected by the Heavenly Dao. The possibility of them being punished was very low. Today, Little Qiong Peak’s immortal seedling, Ling’e, was undergoing her Tribulation Transcendence. However, a Heavenly Punishment had gone to the Little Qiong Peak’s “Essence Immortal”, Li Changshou. The relationship between the two of them was somewhat hard to fathom.
The “empty” Sect Leader Ji Wuyou stood with his hands behind his back. He pondered for a while and wanted to explain for Li Changshou, but he… could not continue lying!
However, no matter what, Ji Wuyou could not let anything happen to Li Changshou. He immediately shouted, “Changshou, this is the Heavenly Punishment. I will help you!”
“Sect Leader, don’t worry!” Li Changshou turned around and bowed with a Dao salute.
There was no choice. The Sect Leader could not bear the intensity of the Heavenly Punishment that he was suffering.
However, the main problem now was… how to survive the Heavenly Punishment in front of everyone without exposing too many of his trump cards!
When Li Changshou saw that question, he rejected it.
However, the Heavenly Dao was impartial and did things according to the rules. It would not bargain with him. The Divine Lightning of Heavenly Punishment that could destroy everything was brewing in the sky. The Heavenly Might was firmly locked onto him. After looking, he confirmed that it was lightning that he could not refuse.
However, what is it for this time? He should at least give me a reason, right?
He remembered that it was during the Immortal Ascension Tribulation. It was the first time he had met the Heavenly Punishment. At that time, the Heavenly Punishment was very inexperienced. It came and left quickly. Li Changshou had admitted that it was because he had concealed the heavenly secrets then.
The Golden Immortal Tribulation was split into twelve Heavenly Punishments. That was mainly because he had severed his Dao nine times and shaken the Heavenly Tribulation nine times. Li Changshou accepted it. The Nine Heavenly Punishment struck the paper effigy that created the Golden Immortal realm. Later on, Li Changshou also understood that it might be a warning to him not to create a cultivation system of “swallowing a Golden Pill”.
Therefore, Li Changshou reluctantly accepted
it.
However, today!
Only today! Under the premise of the approval of the Heavenly Dao, he summarized the experiences of his predecessors during the Tribulation Transcendence and used the Grand Pure One’s Dao of Alchemy to help his junior sister make some preparations for the Tribulation Transcendence. Why should I be struck!?! Why am I being punished!?!
Why… wait.
Li Changshou blinked and suddenly looked at Ling’e.
At that moment, Ling’e was also looking over. Her eyes were filled with shock and nervousness.
Behind Ling’e, the image of a book slowly floated. It was becoming more solid, and the word ‘stable’ on it became clearer.
Could it be because of that?
The corners of Li Changshou’s mouth twitched. Soon… he admitted it again. Above the gray cloud, the power of heavenly punishment was about to descend. The immortals of the Immortal Du Sect and Ling’e, who was undergoing the Tribulation Transcendence, looked at him. What should I do…
What else can I do? I’ll endure it.
Fortunately, because he had been struck by the Heavenly Punishment many times, Li Changshou had already established an emergency response to the Heavenly Punishment in the wilderness. Facing the Heavenly Punishment, he felt more confident. After being sick for a long time, Li Changshou could already tell whether the Heavenly Punishment was a punishment or an extermination punishment. The Heavenly Punishment that he had suffered was naturally a punishment. Otherwise, he would have long been dead.
According to the frequency of the Heavenly Punishment’s fluctuations and the total amount of Heavenly Punishment contained in the gray cloud, it should be the same this time. The Heavenly Punishment did not wait for anyone. At that moment, it was almost ready and was about to descend… Li Changshou opened his left sleeve and a sanguine gem flew out. The gem flew into the distance and flew hundreds of kilometers away in the blink of an eye.
The gray cloud disappeared without a sound. When it reappeared, there was a bolt of purple-red divine lightning that was as thick as a water bucket above the gem!
The color of the world changed, and the wind and clouds stopped moving!
The gem smashed into the mountains below, causing them to collapse! The expressions of the immortals from the Immortal Du Sect changed. Fortunately, there were not many people in the sect who liked to gasp. Otherwise, the scene would definitely be spectacular. Ling’e thought of something and looked nervously at the collapsed mountain hundreds of kilometers away. She could not even care about her Heavenly Tribulation… Senior Brother!
“Focus on transcending the tribulation.”
Li Changshou’s voice entered her ears again. He was still very calm. Ling’e subconsciously looked at her senior brother, who was two and a half kilometers behind her.
The person standing there was naturally Li Changshou’s paper effigy.
The thing that was thrown out just now was the small box that Li Changshou’s main body was hiding in after using the transformation technique. He hid his main body on the paper effigy. Then, the paper effigy went out to cheer for his junior sister. That was equivalent to his main body attending personally… Right?
Li Changshou, who had just been struck by the Heavenly Punishment, continued to send a voice transmission. “Don’t worry. I’ve already withstood Heavenly Punishments like this many times. Just quickly become an immortal.”
Ling’e hurriedly agreed and felt touched. Although I don’t know the exact reason, Senior Brother did it for me…
Boom! Boom!
Lightning spots flickered above Ling’e’s head. The huge Tribulation Cloud, which was 50 kilometers in diameter, slowly pressed down, and the spiritual energy within 500 kilometers quickly boiled.
A pool of blue divine lightning fell from the Tribulation Cloud like a pearl curtain and a waterfall, landing on Ling’e’s head! Ling’e’s expression was solemn. The image of the book behind her became clearer. Her slender hand moved like a cloud and was as fast as an illusion. According to the power of the Thunder Tribulation, she circulated enough Dharma powers and condensed three Dharma power barriers above her head. As the lightning fell, the dark world was illuminated, and the Immortal Du Sect’s immortals’ attention was drawn back.
Qi Yuan cried out, “Is this Lingle’s first Thunder Tribulation?”
“Nine Lightnings Heavenly Tribulation! It’s the legendary Nine Lightnings Heavenly Tribulation!”
“Could it be that the Immortal Du Sect is going to produce another Golden Immortal!?! Anyone who can transcend the ninth stage of the Heavenly Tribulation will be blessed with longevity!” “Hahaha!”
Jiang Lin’er clutched her waist and laughed. “My grand-disciple has the potential of a Golden Immortal!”
At the same time, a second bolt of purple-red lightning struck from 750 kilometers away…
However, only immortals above the Heaven Immortal realm could see the Heavenly Punishment’s Divine Lightning. Li Changshou hid underground and endured the Heavenly Punishment while paying attention to Ling’e’s Heavenly Tribulation. At the same time, he spread his immortal senses as far as possible to prevent the Heavenly Punishment from attracting any experts and threatening him. Junior Sister’s Heavenly Tribulation…
As a senior brother, I’m really tired!
At the gate of the Immortal Du Sect, Ling’e was safe and sound after resisting the first Heavenly Tribulation. Her Dao Body already had the first immortal aura.
As per her senior brother’s instructions, she absorbed the immortal aura into her body and protected her heart meridians. She quickly integrated it into her Dharma powers. The Immortal Ascension Tribulation was more haste. After all, it was not a big deal for a Postnatal lifeform to become an immortal.
The second and third Heavenly Tribulation descended one after another. Each time, the lightning pool would collapse and the lightning would fall like a waterfall. Ling’e was able to deal with them easily. She had also swallowed pills that could continuously restore her Dharma powers and maintained the abundance of her Dharma powers. Senior Brother did not give her that many Spirit Pills for her to scrimp and save them.
She ought to use it when she should. Immortal Ascension was the beginning and the foundation of everything!
At that moment, a disciple of Little Qiong Peak had already escaped more than 1,500 kilometers and was silently welcoming the third Heavenly Punishment.
In front of the mountain gate, Sect Leader Ji Wuyou flew to Li Changshou’s paper effigy and asked, “Changshou, are you… alright?”
Although Li Changshou’s heart was bleeding and his body was in pain, he still bowed and replied, “Thank you for your concern, Sect Leader. I’m fine. However, Sect Leader, can you help me conceal the matter regarding the Heavenly Punishment? Due to some reasons that I cannot say, I cannot expose my other identities in Ren School… Sect Leader, please grant me my wish!”
Ji Wuyou could not help but reveal a knowing smile. He said warmly, “Don’t worry. I understand. Tell me how to cooperate with
you.”
Li Changshou quietly sent a voice transmission and said a few words. When he spoke, he even endured the fourth Heavenly Punishment. The paper effigy could not help but shiver. The injury was not serious, but it was really painful. After a while, Ji Wuyou coughed and said calmly, “Changshou, the Magi Blood Soul Gem I gave you is for you to figure out the Dao of array formations. Today, the Blood Soul Gem provoked the Heavenly Punishment and even flew away on its own. What punishment do you deserve?”
Li Changshou hurriedly lowered his head and admitted his mistake. “Sect Leader, please punish me!”
“Yes, I’ll punish you by not giving you any monthly allowance for 30 years. After your junior sister transcends the tribulation, you will stay in the Little Qiong Peak for 30 years. Are you willing to accept this?” “I lost my treasure and so I am willing to accept punishment!”
Ji Wuyou nodded and continued to stand in front of Li Changshou, watching Lingle transcend the tribulation on the desolate mountain.
Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief. His main body looked at the gray cloud. The gray cloud seemed to be… resting in the middle. Fortunately, the Heavenly Punishment this time was not too ruthless.
After enduring four Heavenly Punishments, Li Changshou’s injuries were not too serious.
At that moment, he finally had a chance to add that sentence…
“I am willing to accept the punishment. Thank you, Heavenly Dao, for rushing over to lecture
me.”
He felt much more at ease.
Then, Li Changshou looked down at his charred Dao Body and used his immortal power to seal his injuries. He raised his hand and swallowed a pill. He used the Wind Escape technique and rushed hundreds of kilometers away to continue receiving the Heavenly Punishment. The fifth Heavenly Punishment arrived late. Its power was similar to the first four. Li Changshou endured it and quickly healed himself. At the same time, he did not forget to observe his junior sister’s movements.
He felt a little unstable since he did not remind his junior sister to take the pills and use the Dharma spells in time.
Fortunately…
Although Li Changshou was a little depressed after being punished by the Heavenly Dao, the situation when Ling’e transcended the Heavenly Tribulation was within his expectations.
In fact, every time a Heavenly Tribulation descended, Ling’e would be able to retain a few percent of her Dharma powers, which was similar to what Li Changshou had expected.
This is the junior sister that I brought up!
Ling’e’s seventh Heavenly Tribulation, which was mixed with purple lightning, flattened the mountain below. Blood seeped out of Ling’e’s forehead and shoulders, and her dress was slightly tattered.

S
Ling’e nonetheless divided a portion of her Dharma powers and wrapped herself up tightly. Her eyes were filled with determination.
She did not know if it was because she could not be seen by anyone other than her senior brother, or if it was because she felt that she had to transcend the tribulation and become an immortal and thus felt overjoyed.
However… they were all beliefs! When the eighth Heavenly Tribulation landed, Ling’e inevitably suffered injuries. However, after consuming a few third-grade and fourth-grade healing Spirit Pills, her injuries were immediately suppressed. In short, there was no danger. However, when the Tribulation Clouds in the sky collapsed and revealed a phenomena of nine thousand-feet-tall immortals, Li Changshou, who had just survived the seventh Heavenly Punishment, felt a little worried.
There should be one more Heavenly Punishment. There were not many tribulations that were of the power of the Heavenly Punishment left.
The power of his junior sister’s last Heavenly Tribulation was beyond Li Changshou’s expectations…
It was not strong.
Could it be that the Heavenly Dao had temporarily divided a portion of the Heavenly Dao’s power to turn it into Heavenly Punishment in order to strike me, causing the power of Ling’e’s Heavenly Tribulation to weaken?
No matter what, it was naturally a good thing.
At that moment, 80% of Ling’e’s Dao Body had transformed into an immortal body. According to that deduction, after the last bolt of lightning, her immortal foundation would definitely be perfect.
In the sky, the nine fairies with blurry figures raised their hands. A ball of purple lightning that was more than a thousand feet in diameter quickly condensed.
The lightning ball pressed down, and the phenomena of the nine fairies shattered from top to bottom, turning into clouds that filled the sky. However, in the blink of an eye, the Thunder Tribulation that seemed to be about to sink the ground crashed down on Ling’e! Many disciples in the Immortal Du Sect held their breaths. The disciples who had just transcended the Heavenly Tribulation felt their foreheads go numb as they exclaimed in admiration.
The stronger the Heavenly Tribulation was, the higher the potential one had after becoming an immortal.
Ling’e’s Heavenly Tribulation was so dangerous but she had a high chance of surviving it…
She had the demeanor of a Golden Immortal. She was indeed worthy of being called an “immortal seedling’. “Senior Brother!”
Lan Lingle, who was facing the lightning ball in the sky, suddenly turned around. Although she could vaguely sense that her senior brother was a paper effigy, she could not suppress the urge in her heart. She knew that her senior brother did not like to be flamboyant, so she used the Wind Speech Incantation to send a gentle voice transmission to Li Changshou.
Then, Ling’e turned around and faced the Thunder Tribulation that was falling from the sky. Her graceful figure jumped up from the sky above the mountain. Her black hair danced wildly, and her skirt fluttered.
She held her sword and slashed the lightning!
She charged straight into the Thunder Tribulation and unleashed all her Dharma powers! “Senior Brother… I will definitely become your Dao companion…”
In a deep pit 1,500 kilometers away, Li Changshou lay at the bottom of the pit. His body was as black as charcoal. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
If she is going to transcend the tribulation, so be it. Why is she being so emotional?
You still dare to force your way through the Thunder Tribulation and act cool. The stone slabs on the mountain should not be enough for you to write on and wipe… Li Changshou took a deep breath and quickly recovered his immortal power. He used Earth Escape and disappeared from the bottom of the pit. Just as he was about to rush back to the Immortal Du Sect and return to the Little Qiong Peak to recuperate, Li Changshou suddenly exclaimed softly. His immortal senses captured that there was a black leopard carrying a young girl on its back in the south-east direction, which was only a thousand kilometers away from him. It was speeding through the forest. This black leopard…
For some reason, Li Changshou felt a sense of mystery.
However, his main body was injured at that moment. He would not act rashly. He only casually sent a paper effigy that was in the Golden Immortal realm, wanting to see why the two weak demons would appear there. Why does this black leopard give me a… strange sense of familiarity?
