Chapter 70

Jiang Yan waved his hand gently, and the entire Tongtian Peak was covered with a layer of golden light.

The originally panicked Millelith also calmed down.

It seemed that as long as this golden light was there, there would be no danger.

Everyone looked up at the dome of the main hall.

In the sky, Zhongli looked at the tribulation clouds above his head with a solemn expression.

The Vortex Vanquisher had already appeared in his hand.

However, facing the Lei Jie of a cultivator, this divine artifact seemed to be trembling somewhat.

Zhongli knew clearly in his heart.

Vortex Vanquisher, this old friend...

I'm afraid it can only send me on my final journey today.

It is, after all, not a true spirit artifact.

Suddenly, Jiang Yan spoke:

"It is a pity for such a divine artifact to be destroyed in the Lei Jie. Peak Master Morax, why not let me re-refine it?"

50. Zhongli: What's wrong with using the Sword Art to control a spear? Everything can be a sword!

Upon hearing this, Zhongli looked down and casually threw the Vortex Vanquisher toward Jiang Yan's position.

The latter narrowed his eyes slightly, and a group of purple alchemy fire appeared out of thin air.

The Vortex Vanquisher melted in the firelight.

Jiang Yan didn't need to add any materials; the Vortex Vanquisher itself was a divine artifact, accompanying Zhongli in battle for thousands of years.

This weapon had already reached its peak.

Re-refining it was nothing more than making it possess spirituality and fit with True Essence.

Not long after, it re-condensed on the eve of the Lei Jie.

The brand-new Vortex Vanquisher left the firelight and flew around Jiang Yan with quite a bit of spirituality.

That sharp and domineering aura spread out.

Keqing saw her Qing Shuang Sword trembling.

"A low-grade spirit artifact is enough."

Jiang Yan smiled and nodded, pointing at Zhongli.

The Vortex Vanquisher traveled through space at high speed and arrived beside Zhongli.

"Take this brand-new Vortex as a gift for Peak Master Morax's rebirth. A low-grade spirit artifact is enough for you to deal with the Lei Jie."

"We are waiting for your good news."

Upon hearing this, Zhongli looked at the brand-new Vortex Vanquisher with a calm gaze.

That connection between bloodlines, plus the current spirituality of the Vortex Vanquisher, made Zhongli suddenly feel like an old friend accompanying him in battle.

Moreover, the current Vortex Vanquisher is a low-grade spirit artifact, and Zhongli himself didn't have a definite grasp of its strength.

He could only say...

Just by holding this weapon, he could feel the activity of the True Essence in his body.

His combat power had increased greatly.

As he is now, if the Heavenly Principles do not appear, he can sweep across Teyvat.

No one is his match.

Thinking of this, Zhongli looked at Jiang Yan and the others and smiled:

"Thank you, Sect Master. Xiao, please warm some tea for me; I'll be back soon."

Jiang Yan laughed dumbly.

Zhongli, this guy, actually came up with this set of warming tea while crossing the Lei Jie.

The next moment, Zhongli rose to his full height and rushed straight into the sky.

And the thunder that had been brewing for a long time finally descended with a bang.

"Break!"

Zhongli gritted his teeth, held his spear high, and stabbed at the thunder.

Only when truly facing the Lei Jie could he understand how strong the pressure of the Lei Jie was.

This was a completely different feeling from watching Jiang Yan's Lei Jie.

It was simply...

Like the heavens venting their anger.

But the heavens?

Those who have stepped onto the path of cultivation have always been fighting for life with the heavens!

The more the heavens want to suppress him, the angrier they are.

The happier he is.

This only shows that his power has made the heavens fearful!

The first thunder was suddenly broken, but traces of the thunder's destruction were unavoidable around Zhongli.

Zhongli recalled Jiang Yan's appearance when crossing the tribulation, using True Essence to turn into a barrier to protect his whole body.

As he is now, he has no other way to cross the tribulation.

Jiang Yan could rely on Sword Control Art and the Divine Sword Thunder Control True Art to resist.

But he...

Only has martial arts honed to the peak.

The authority of elemental power and divine power is useless.

Facing the Heavenly Tribulation, it is like a child's play.

The Heavenly Tribulation of a cultivator cannot be resisted by things composed of mere elemental power.

Zhongli knew this and didn't intend to summon rock pillars.

After thinking for a while, he operated his True Essence in the way of the Jade Shield.

The next moment, a stronger shield appeared around his body.

The white-gold luster was like two suns in the sky.

But just after doing all this, the second thunder arrived as scheduled.

The moment it descended, it shattered the True Essence shield Zhongli had just constructed.

Even the aftermath of the Lei Jie was not something Zhongli's body could resist, so he was immediately knocked out of the air and smashed heavily to the ground.

"Emperor!"

Xiao was anxious and wanted to run out as soon as he stood up.

But he was gently fixed in place by Jiang Yan.

"No one can help him; this is Morax's own Lei Jie."

Xiao gritted his teeth and finally sat back down.

Seeing Zhongli injured was harder than letting him die.

Jiang Yan sighed at Xiao's loyalty; he was worthy of being raised by Zhongli as his own son.

But Zhongli's situation was not particularly bad.

Lying on the barrier Jiang Yan constructed to protect Tongtian Peak, Zhongli had some golden blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

After checking his internal situation, Zhongli was somewhat happy.

The True Essence just now had been tempered by the thunder and had sublimated to the strength that Refining Qi and Transforming Spirit should have.

Right now, as long as he tempered the other True Essence, the tribulation would be completed.

Thinking of this, Zhongli jumped up again and reached out to summon the Vortex Vanquisher.

Being bombarded by thunder, the Vortex Vanquisher did look somewhat unstable.

But this was also an opportunity for the Vortex Vanquisher.

If it could withstand it, it could retain a trace of the Lei Jie's pressure.

The True Essence shield appeared on his body again, and Zhongli looked up to face the third Lei Jie.

The third Lei Jie was faster and more explosive than before.

This time, Zhongli was slapped hard on the barrier, and the divine outfit constructed by divine power dissipated. ===== CHAPTER 71 =====
