Chapter 719
Throughout history, everyone who left the Peach Blossom Secret Realm never returned. When she parted with Xiao Zhi back then, Yun Mengmeng cried as sadly as one could, thinking it was a final farewell.
And the source of Xiao Zhi leaving the Peach Blossom Secret Realm was this guy named Ye Wanli!
Daoist Daoist Bu Yu had only met Yun Mengmeng once, and that was when she was less than ten years old. He hadn't followed Miss Yun Zhi when she went back to the secret realm to visit her relatives, so he didn't recognize Yun Mengmeng's identity at first.
When he carefully recalled what Yun Mengmeng had said when they met, he finally realized who she was and had a sudden realization.
"You're that little girl who cried so fiercely back then!"
"You still dare to say that!"
Yun Mengmeng glared and, without a word, self-destructed, catching Daoist Daoist Bu Yu off guard.
No matter how rich one's combat experience is, no cultivator can react in time to a self-destruction attack from an opponent.
Yun Mengmeng used the continuous self-destruction method she had just learned from the Decayed Fairy on Daoist Daoist Bu Yu. Roaring sounds echoed continuously over Tianmen Peak, and Daoist Daoist Bu Yu drifted with the air waves like a tattered kite.
Lu Yang felt a bit fortunate—fortunate that Yun Mengmeng had just learned from the Fairy how to use the embryonic form of the Immortal Dao Fruit; if she hadn't learned it yet, it probably wouldn't have been easy to ambush Master.
"Master is destined to face this tribulation," Lu Yang said with an air of composure, like a blind fortune teller, finding an excuse for not going up to help.
Gan Tian also quite agreed with her Junior Brother's point of view: "Since Master is at the Tribulation Transcendence stage, it is only reasonable for him to undergo a few human tribulations."
Senior Sister Gan Tian had gained something from going out to seek inspiration for her music; she brought back a local specialty, white melon, which had few seeds, was very crisp and sweet, and was full of moisture. She used a zither string to cut the white melon into eight slices and shared one with her Junior Brother. The two of them ate with great relish.
The commotion on Tianmen Peak also attracted the attention of the Wen Dao Sect disciples. They pointed at Daoist Daoist Bu Yu, who was being blown up, and were all curious about who was behind it.
"Amazing, does our Wen Dao Sect have such a master?"
The Wen Dao Sect disciples discussed among themselves, all wanting to know who this master was.
Even if the Child Master from the Prison Peak or Tao Lao from the Scripture Library were to take action, it wouldn't have such an exaggerated effect.
Just then, Miss Yun Zhi rushed back. She watched Yun Mengmeng frantically self-destructing and Daoist Daoist Bu Yu looking like a candle in the wind, and the corner of her eye twitched.
"Alright, alright, Mengmeng, stop now. That's enough."
Miss Yun Zhi stood between the two and interrupted Yun Mengmeng's continuous self-destruction. Daoist Daoist Bu Yu finally didn't have to maintain his sword qi protection state anymore.
Seeing that Xiao Zhi had come over, Yun Mengmeng stopped attacking angrily. Daoist Daoist Bu Yu also let out a sigh of relief; he really didn't know how to treat Yun Mengmeng.
If he fought back, she was indeed in the right, and their conflict wasn't small.
If he didn't fight back, his old bones couldn't take being blown up like this forever.
Suddenly, a thunderous sound rang out, making Daoist Daoist Bu Yu subconsciously think that Yun Mengmeng was going to self-destruct again.
Then he realized the thunder came from a very far place and was very familiar.
"Tribulation thunder—who is about to become a Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator?"
Daoist Daoist Bu Yu looked in the direction of the thunder, his eyes narrowing slightly. If he wasn't mistaken, that was the canyon, the place where his Big Brother was in seclusion.
"The Great Elder is about to undergo his tribulation!"
Lu Yang also realized it. He had been to the Great Elder's seclusion place, and it was all coffins.
The Great Elder had been in seclusion for over a year, and now he finally had results.
The members of the Wen Dao Sect were attracted by the Great Elder's commotion and rushed to the vicinity of the canyon to watch the tribulation process.
Lu Yang and the others also rushed over.
At this time, the sky above the canyon was as black as ink, and the pressure of the thunder was like an abyss, unfathomable.
Although the tribulation thunder the Great Elder was undergoing was not as intense as Daoist Daoist Bu Yu's had been, it was not far off, worthy of the title of half-step Tribulation Transcendence stage.
Below the canyon, the coffin vibrated. The immortal peach placed in front of the coffin was reduced to a pit. Suddenly, a pale hand stretched out from the coffin, gripping the coffin lid, with blue veins bulging on the back of the hand.
With a boom, the coffin exploded, and the Great Elder soared into the air, arriving above the canyon to face the tribulation thunder directly without any fear, his head lowered, snoring.
"The Great Elder seems to be sleeping. Is he alright?" Lu Yang asked worriedly.
"No matter, Big Brother practices the Dao of Dreams. He is in his strongest state while in his dreams. Enemies in reality will appear in his dreamscape in another form. Big Brother fights the enemies in his dream, and he acts accordingly in reality," Daoist Daoist Bu Yu explained, his memory of being taught a lesson by the sleepwalking Great Elder when he was a child still fresh.
The Great Elder's tribulation was a big event; the Second Elder, Third Elder... even the Sixth Elder had come.
The Child Master and Tao Lao had also come.
Boom!
No one expected that the first tribulation thunder would actually appear from below the canyon; the thunder in the sky was just a feint!
Thunder struck from the flat ground, heading straight for the Great Elder's face. The Great Elder kept his eyes closed and slashed down with a hand blade, actually intending to go head-to-head with the tribulation thunder!
Countless thunderbolts rose from below like tentacles, binding the Great Elder. The Great Elder let out a loud shout, his muscles bulging, and a Luo Han Dharma body holding a vajra pestle appeared, breaking free from the restraints of the tribulation thunder, which made Lu Yang tremble with fear.
He could see clearly that the Great Elder had been beaten until his skin was torn and flesh was gaping, with wounds deep enough to see the bone. The Great Elder seemed to have no sensation, blindly counterattacking the tribulation thunder, completely ignoring his own injuries.
"He's like this when he's asleep; he only attacks and doesn't defend, and he can't feel pain," Daoist Daoist Bu Yu explained again.
The Great Elder didn't know what he was dreaming about, his expression ferocious, like a Luo Han subduing demons in a mural.
"Let me tell you, I am the strongest zombie! I have already cultivated to the realm of a Drought Demon! Can a bunch of you unrefined bones be stronger than me!" The Great Elder suddenly shouted loudly.
"Let me tell you, this graveyard is my territory! No one can take it away!"
"Not convinced? Then let's talk with our fists!"
Lu Yang: "..."
Great Elder, what exactly did you dream about in your dream?
When the Great Elder repelled the ninety-ninth tribulation thunder, the thunder at the bottom of the canyon and above dissipated simultaneously. As the sunlight shone on the Great Elder, who was floating in the air, covered in wounds and looking like a god of war, the Great Elder slowly opened his eyes, his expression serious and stiff, as if he were still savoring the feeling of becoming a Drought Demon.
"Hiss, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"
Soon, the pain after the tribulation brought the Great Elder back to reality. The power left in his body by the tribulation thunder continuously repaired his body, and he finally realized that he had just undergone his tribulation and was now a Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator.
"Big Brother, you've finally become a Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator. Congratulations!" Daoist Daoist Bu Yu was the first to step forward to congratulate him, and Grandpa Ba and the others also flew up to congratulate him.
The Wen Dao Sect was full of joy; adding another Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator was worth celebrating.
"Senior Brother, how did Little Qin's habit of liking both zombies and graves come about?" Tao Lao looked at the Child Master with a strange expression, suspecting that this matter had something to do with him.
The Child Master coughed dryly, too embarrassed to say that he used to scare the Great Elder with zombie stories, but he didn't expect that instead of scaring him, it had made him interested.
