Chapter 254

~7 min read 1,235 words

With the Azure Bird's talent……

Zhongli looked up and sighed in his heart.

This thunder tribulation was almost the same as his own back then.

He had relied on his strength at the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit, plus the spirit weapon provided by Jiang Yan, to survive it.

The Azure Bird hadn't even transformed yet, and she couldn't use spirit weapons……

How was she supposed to survive the tribulation?

Hard resistance?

Even the monsters with the strongest physical bodies likely couldn't withstand a few strikes of the thunder tribulation.

Moreover, the Azure Bird was not like him or Venti and the others, who were at the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit as soon as they started cultivating.

The Azure Bird had walked up step by step, properly.

Her foundation might not be very deep.

If something happened to the Azure Bird during the tribulation, Ganyu would likely be heartbroken.

"Is this the legendary thunder tribulation?"

Diluc looked up at the scene above his head, which was like the sky collapsing, and for a moment, he felt a sense of fear arising from the depths of his bones.

Since he started cultivating, Diluc felt that he was already on the strongest path and had nothing to fear.

But now, the heavenly tribulation had taught him a lesson.

In front of the heavenly tribulation, any cultivator was just an ant that had to be tested.

"Lumine, will the Azure Bird be alright?"

Paimon hugged Lumine's arm with worry, looking at the thunder tribulation timidly.

"These thunder clouds are so scary, will the Azure Bird get hurt?"

"She even promised to take Paimon to catch the most delicious fierce beasts. What if the Azure Bird gets hurt?"

Hearing this, the usually optimistic Lumine fell silent.

Kaeya pursed his lips and whispered:

"If the Azure Bird doesn't survive the thunder tribulation, will she……"

"Vanish into thin air, soul destroyed and Dao dissipated."

Alice said with some sorrow, looking at the Azure Bird in the distance with heartache.

"There are only two possibilities for undergoing the tribulation: either survive and continue to be free and easy, or fail and have your soul destroyed and Dao dissipated, with no hope of survival."

"Every cultivator must be clear when facing the thunder tribulation that this is a node with only two choices."

"Either live, or die."

Hearing this, Jean and the others trembled in their hearts and turned to glare at Kaeya.

"If you don't know how to speak, you can choose not to speak in the future."

Diluc rebuked him with some annoyance.

The latter also knew he had said the wrong thing and touched his head sheepishly.

"I was just talking nonsense. The Azure Bird is so strong, she will definitely be able to survive the thunder tribulation."

Miko looked at Ganyu, who had her worry written all over her face, and couldn't help but hold Ganyu's hand.

"Sister Ganyu, it's alright. Your luck is so good, the Azure Bird won't be any worse."

"Thank you, Little Sister Miko."

Ganyu smiled reluctantly and didn't say anything else.

"Didn't the Azure Bird not have the feeling of undergoing the tribulation before she went out just now? Why would she suddenly welcome the thunder tribulation for no reason?"

Ningguang looked at Ganyu with some confusion.

Xiao and Ganyu were both at the peak of Refining Essence into Qi, but they weren't ready to undergo the tribulation at any time.

They were also preparing for the tribulation now.

Although the Azure Bird was also at the peak of Refining Essence into Qi before, she was still a bit worse than Xiao.

So she hadn't made preparations for the tribulation, and Ganyu hadn't even had time to give the Azure Bird any basic defensive measures.

Undergoing the tribulation so rashly was too dangerous.

Ganyu lowered her head in self-reproach.

"It's all my fault. Just now, the Azure Bird saw a strange medicinal herb, and I didn't stop her. After eating it, the Azure Bird had to undergo the tribulation……"

"Just undergoing the tribulation? Why do I feel like the Azure Bird is about to evolve?"

Venti scratched his cheek in confusion.

Suddenly, a gentle voice smoothed away the worry in everyone's hearts.

"Headmaster Venti is right, the Azure Bird is indeed about to evolve."

An ink-colored figure appeared beside Ganyu silently.

Everyone hurriedly bowed and said:

"Headmaster!"

A flash of light appeared in Miko's eyes as she looked at Jiang Yan.

At this moment, the world that felt so huge just now seemed exceptionally small in the presence of this man.

He just stood there, and the whole world seemed to be bowing down to him.

This supreme, yet transcendent and refined meaning.

Made Miko lose her focus for a moment.

Jiang Yan looked sideways and nodded at Miko in a friendly manner.

"Greetings, Shushan Headmaster."

Miko wasn't as playful as before, but instead greeted him quite seriously.

Jiang Yan smiled and looked at Ganyu.

"Don't panic, this is not the Azure Bird's tribulation, but rather her opportunity."

"Opportunity? That flower?"

Ganyu felt a bit more at ease.

Jiang Yan nodded slightly and said softly:

"I have been paying attention to that flower. It was a high-level spirit herb born when the Shushan world evolved, contaminated by the power of the world's evolution."

"Feather-Retreat Rebirth Flower."

"It is also the main medicinal ingredient for refining the fourth-grade medicinal pill, the Clear Light Pill."

"I intended to pick it after it matured, but I didn't expect this little one to get it."

Ganyu was shocked in her heart.

The main ingredient for a fourth-grade medicinal pill, even Jiang Yan was paying attention to it; obviously, this thing was worth a lot.

As a result, the Azure Bird ate it just like that, and Ganyu felt even more self-reproach.

"Sorry, Headmaster, it's my fault for not watching the Azure Bird……"

"It's fine, everything is fate."

Jiang Yan shook his head, not appearing to feel regret.

"Headmaster, what kind of treasure is this Feather-Retreat Rebirth Flower?"

Venti blinked and asked curiously.

With Jiang Yan here, the Azure Bird's tribulation should be no problem, so he felt relieved.

"The Feather-Retreat Rebirth Flower only grows in places where Yin and Yang intersect. It matures once every thousand years, and when it blooms, cyan light fills the sky."

"Consuming it can allow cultivators at the stage of Refining Qi into Spirit to awaken innate divine abilities. When refined into the Clear Light Pill, it is also helpful for the divine abilities and techniques of cultivators at the stage of Refining Spirit into Void."

"It can be called a treasure of immeasurable value."

"Now that the Azure Bird has consumed it, this Feather-Retreat Rebirth Flower will allow her innate divine abilities to fully awaken, and even go a step further."

"It can be considered worth the price."

"The Azure Bird is indeed about to evolve now, but at the same time, with her innate divine abilities fully awakened, the Azure Bird is also about to break through to Refining Qi into Spirit."

"This is her good fortune. Using the thunder tribulation to polish her divine abilities, this little one……"

Jiang Yan laughed freely.

"Who knows, she might even be able to engrave the heavenly thunder into her innate treasure bones. Her luck is truly too good."

Hearing this, everyone looked at the Azure Bird with envy.
