“Boom, boom, boom~”
Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the Prison of Wind. Lu Li would be struck by lightning every time for half an incense stick to burn.
He had been undergoing this for a day and a night. The silver lightning had changed to white, and it now became purple.
None of the strikes hurt him. Instead, they were refining his body, making him stronger and transforming his soul.
After this day, Lu Li realized his physical body was four to five times stronger. It was the purple lightning now. He still had to face the golden and black ones. When all was done, he believed his physical body would be twenty times stronger!
What did that mean?
A warrior at the initial stage of the Semi-God Realm could find it hard to hurt Lu Li. When Lu Li’s body refinement was complete, not even Blazing Huo, the Deaf Taoist, and Blood Emperor together could inflict harm on Lu Li.
Lu Li also noticed that his Xuan Energy was transforming and so was his Bead of Life. His Xuan Energy was more condensed. The color was changing to one with a faint golden hue. He was emitting something he was familiar with—the divine might!
Immortals all had such divine might. Because of the refinement in their physical bodies, the transformation of Xuan Energy and soul, immortals were equipped with something special.
Several warriors came. They did not stay too close and kept a distance of thirty miles away from Lu Li. They were burning with jealousy to find Lu Li so young and feel the divine might coming from him. They wished they could dash over. They wanted to push Lu Li away and accept the gift and transformation from nature.
Of course, nobody was so thick headed as to take actual actions. They would be burnt into ashes by thunderbolts if they had gone over. Nature was accepting Lu Li, not them. Thunderbolts contained two types of energy—destruction and construction. For Lu Li, it was construction, but for others, it would be destruction…
As time passed, more and more were coming over. Basically, they were all from the Prison of Wind. Those from the Prison of Ice and Prison of Darkness could not have arrived so quickly.
While the warriors felt envy, they were also observing carefully, trying to be inspired so that they could achieve the breakthrough.
Two days and two nights later, the lightning turned black!
Lu Li was not hurt at all. His Xuan Energy had become the golden divine energy, and his Soul Pond had shrunk to the size of a pellet.
“Boom, boom, boom~”
The black lightning struck with increasing force. The Xuan Qi in the sky was dispersing. He had come to the most critical moment.
Lu Li relaxed his mind and let himself be engulfed in the Transcendent State to fully accept the gift from nature and the transformation by natural laws.
“What?”
Lu Li was shocked to find that as the final round of lightning struck, the silver dragon mark in that “pellet” in his brain suddenly lit up. That “pellet” changed its shape into a dagger, a small, silver dagger!
“What…”
Lu Li was scared. What was the silver dragon doing at this moment? It was a pivotal moment in his journey to becoming an immortal. One step amiss and he could fail or be ripped to pieces by lightning. Even if everything was okay, when his soul grotesque, his whole life could be ruined.
“Boom!”
As the last round of lightning fell, Lu Li’s body began to shine radiantly. The divine might gained momentum. His Xuan Energy had all been transformed into divine energy, surging in his body.
At the same time, that silver dagger in his soul glared. It had taken shape and could not be reversed. The faint pattern on the dagger was just the silver dragon!
His body and soul had become that of an immortal. He possessed divine energy and divine might!
Lu Li noticed some new information in his mind. He closed his eyes. He stood there and digested the information. Suddenly, he trembled and opened his eyes in astonishment.
He was reminded that he had to ascend to the Divinity in three months. He did some calculations, and the date was just as Astro Emperor said!
Last time when he met Astro Emperor, Lu Li was told that he would ascend to the Divinity in one year and eight months. It had been one year and five months till now. The timing was right!
“Is it really the fate that determines it? Is there a hand of destiny hidden in the unseen that is controlling everyone’s life?”
Gazing into the sky, Lu Li was silent for a long time. He was not surprised that Astro Emperor could decipher nature’s mystery. He was stunned that there was really something as destiny!
“Nevermind!”
Lu Li waved his hand. He decided not to bother himself about this too much. He had no time. He had to go back and say goodbye to his family and friends. Then, he must go to the Prison of Thunder and ascend to the Divinity.
“Whoosh!”
Lu Li took flight and rushed toward the entrance of the Prison of Ice. Even he was surprised by the current speed he was traveling at. He could not even tell how fast he was. Not even the Wicked Bead was one-tenth of his speed.
“Well…”
In an instant, Lu Li had vanished into the horizon. The Semi-God Realm warriors nearby looked at each other, appalled. Immortals were so much faster than mortals at their extreme speed.
More warriors were hurrying their way over. They only saw a blur, and Lu Li had disappeared into the distance.
“Well, the speed is good!”
Arriving at the Prison of Ice, Lu Li nodded. It would take him only a few days to get back to the Earth Imperial Universe. Counting the time to the Prison of Thunder, he would spend a month on the way. He had two months to hang out with his family and friends and make plans.
“Well, let’s see what I got!”
Lu Li looked at a mountain in the distance. He took out the Relic weapon and released the Slayer’s move.
“Swish~”
A ray of blood-red sword light appeared in a stunning way. The ray reached two miles. The space was torn apart, and a huge crack was expanding. The space within an area of three thousand miles was shaking.
“Well…”
Three warriors just happened to be on their way over. They thought they could go to the Prison of Wind to observe. Now, they were stunned by that shocking ray of blood-red sword light.
“Boom!”
The ray of sword light landed on a huge iceberg; it was cracked in the middle. The mountain, which was two miles high and covered up an area with a radius of three hundred miles, was cut open. The mountain was slit perfectly as if it were formed naturally.
“An immortal is so horrifying!”
The three warriors shivered in fear. They dropped to their knees. They had lost the courage to look at Lu Li. They were scared that looking at him could be interpreted as a violation to the immortal.
“Good. I need to hurry!”
Lu Li nodded to himself. He paid no heed to the three warriors before he flew away and vanished into the horizon.
“It’s good that he has become an immortal!”
When Lu Li was gone, one of the warriors wiped the sweat off his face and murmured, “Lu Li is malefic. How many will be killed if he stays at the nine universes? It’s better that he goes off to the Divinity and scourge the immortals there…”
