Chapter 69

At this time, Zhongli's posture was exposed to everyone.

"That is... Mr. Zhongli from the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor!"

Ningguang was somewhat surprised.

"Mr. Zhongli is actually the Emperor?"

After speaking, Ningguang turned to look at everyone's expressions.

Xiao looked a bit strange, as if he had known for a long time, but Liuyun and the others looked confused, obviously unaware.

The most outrageous one was Jiang Yan, who seemed indifferent.

But thinking of Jiang Yan's strength, it was understandable.

It seems he had known for a long time.

Zhongli gritted his teeth, dragon horns appeared on his head, and his pupils completely turned into golden dragon pupils.

Dense scales appeared on his hands; at this time, he had already used his peak state.

But he only had time to construct True Essence defense again.

The fourth Thunder Tribulation descended again.

The next few Thunder Tribulations were extremely dangerous.

Zhongli was almost unable to stand up; every time he could barely recover to construct True Essence defense, he would be slammed down again.

Soon, the eighth Thunder Tribulation had passed, and only the last, unprecedentedly powerful Thunder Tribulation was brewing.

Zhongli was already in a miserable state, and Xiao, who was beside him, was almost anxious to death.

He wished he could go up and undergo the Tribulation for Zhongli.

Ningguang and the others were also silent; they had finally witnessed the tribulation of a cultivator with their own eyes.

Admittedly, cultivators are very strong, but this kind of Thunder Tribulation...

No wonder Jiang Yan said that every Tribulation is a life-and-death crisis.

But having become cultivators, thinking of that infinitely bright future, they could not tolerate giving up.

Even if they died under the Tribulation Thunder, at least they had been glorious once.

Most of Zhongli's body was charred and numb, one of the dragon horns on his head was broken, and his body was cracked inch by inch, oozing golden blood.

Zhongli was panting, but his eyes were flashing with unprecedented excitement.

True Essence...

It had been tempered!

Now, as long as he successfully passes the last Tribulation Thunder, he can enjoy everything he has as a Refining Qi into Spirit cultivator.

It's just that the last Tribulation Thunder is the strongest and the most likely to threaten him.

If he underwent the Tribulation after some time, with his talent, he would definitely be able to learn some immortal cultivation secret arts.

By then, passing the Tribulation would be easy.

But now...

He had nothing, only a first-order spirit artifact and a body of tempered martial arts.

Zhongli was undergoing the Tribulation completely naked.

Suddenly, Jiang Yan spoke leisurely:

"The earth gains the One to be tranquil, the spirit gains the One to be spiritual, the valley gains the One to be full, all things gain the One to be born."

"My heart is as clear as a bright mirror, my intent is as broad as the firmament."

"With my creation, I merge with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth."

"This is the Shushan Sword Control Technique."

These words reached everyone's ears, and for a moment, they were all somewhat confused.

Keqing and the others understood that this was the Shushan Sword Control Technique, but no matter what, just by these few words, they couldn't comprehend it.

But what Jiang Yan was truly speaking to was Zhongli.

0 Seeking flowers 0

There is great creation between life and death.

Zhongli, with the talent of a Heavenly Spiritual Root, Jiang Yan believed he could understand.

Sure enough, a flash of light appeared in Zhongli's eyes.

Finally, he understood the method of the Sword Control Technique; although it was only an introduction, how could the dignified Shushan Sword Control Technique not be able to withstand the Thunder Tribulation of a mere Refining Qi into Spirit?

Zhongli laughed loudly and formed a sword with his fingers.

Everything in heaven and earth can be a sword!

In an instant, the Vortex Vanquisher burst into golden light again, and as Zhongli manipulated it, it went straight to the nine heavens.

That last thunder also descended with a bang.

Zhongli's heart was unprecedentedly clear.

Only that thunder remained in his eyes.

Finally, the Vortex Vanquisher manipulated by Zhongli, carrying the power of heaven and earth, shattered the Thunder Tribulation.

The endless thunder clouds in the sky were also completely shattered by this spear.

If it had fallen to the ground, I'm afraid that in an instant, most of Liyue's land would have been gone.

The clouds cleared and the rain stopped.

Zhongli stood on the nine heavens, with the Vortex Vanquisher hovering beside him.

The noon sun shone down, and Zhongli suddenly felt the shackles that had bound him break.

Teyvat's restrictions could no longer suppress him.

From this moment on, he truly stepped onto the path of free immortal cultivation.

A golden light pillar suddenly descended from an unknown place.

It wrapped Zhongli completely inside.

The body shattered by the aftermath of the Thunder Tribulation was being reshaped.

It was stronger than ever before.

A kind of unyielding, immortal spiritual light was settled in his soul.

It seemed that from the root, all possibilities of erosion had been eliminated.

This was a feeling of freedom he had never had before.

Zhongli suddenly understood why that old friend pursued freedom so stubbornly.

Breaking free from shackles is indeed a wonderful thing.

It's just...

Zhongli looked down; all his hiding had been in vain, and I'm afraid his identity as Zhongli had already been exposed.

Now this is good...

With a wry smile, Zhongli sighed helplessly.

But it didn't matter; with the system of immortal cultivation, Liyue wouldn't have any accidents.

Abdicating, just say the word.

Thinking this through, Zhongli was no longer worried; the Vortex Vanquisher flew to his feet, carrying Zhongli back to the main hall.

Landing gracefully, a powerful sense of oppression instantly surged into everyone's hearts.

This was because he had just broken through to Refining Qi into Spirit and had not yet mastered aura concealment.

Jiang Yan tapped the table lightly, and Zhongli's chaotic aura was suppressed by him.

"Congratulations."

Xiao also stepped forward with joy in his eyes and handed Zhongli a cup of tea.

"Emperor, the tea is still warm."

Zhongli took the teacup and drank it in one gulp, laughing:

"It is indeed an experience worth remembering for a lifetime; it's been a long time since I had such a hearty battle."

"So... how does it feel to fight against the heavens for life?"

Jiang Yan asked back with a smile.

"Very good."

Zhongli laughed loudly and sat back in his seat.

Xiao, who was beside him, carefully observed Zhongli up and down, and seeing that Zhongli was indeed without a single scar, he felt relieved and bowed:
