Protagonist:

Jiang Xuan

"Is that so? You don't look that strong either."

Little Stone revealed himself, facing the Rain King with a completely fearless expression.

"I didn't expect to wait until you came; you've repeatedly confronted my Rain Clan, today I'll send you to your death."

The Rain King also hadn't expected to see Xiao Budian here.

The Rain Clan's upper echelons had long set their sights on Xiao Budian; his appearance caused Rain Clan geniuses to lose opportunities, so naturally they wouldn't let Xiao Budian off.

Now seeing Xiao Budian, they were especially envious, and the Rain King gave the order.

"Kill him for me! Exterminate the Sin Blood lineage."

His target also included the myriad commoners behind Little Stone.

The Shi Guo commoners, seeing Xiao Budian take the initiative to appear, were extremely surprised; no matter how they thought about it, Xiao Budian shouldn't have appeared.

Back when Jiang Xuan intervened, it already made the entire Shi Guo pay attention to this matter; as the truth of that time was exposed, they only then understood that Xiao Budian was actually the victim.

A Born Supreme was ruined; this is the entire Shi Guo's debt to Xiao Budian.

"Xiao Budian? How could he come."

The generals in Shi Guo couldn't believe it.

"Why would he appear? Has he already let go of that past matter? Even if he let it go, he shouldn't come at this time."

They were clearly happy someone came to save them, but always felt they owed Xiao Budian too much; now seeing him come, their hearts were filled with guilt.

"No, let him leave; what relationship does Shi Guo still have with him? He's already suffered so many years; can we still let them accompany us to send ourselves to death?"

The Shi Guo commoners agreed with these words, unwilling for Little Stone to intervene in this matter.

"Shi Guo's matters have nothing to do with you; quickly leave; you've long since not been Shi Guo's person; what are you doing coming now!"

The Shi Guo commoners' starting point was good, but in the Rain King's view, Xiao Budian was the one who must die today.

Moving Blood Realm Peak, Cave Heaven Realm Peak, Transformation Spirit Realm Peak — every realm he achieved Transcendence; developing like this would threaten the Rain Clan.

The Rain King wouldn't let this happen; today if Xiao Budian didn't appear, he would still find Xiao Budian and strangle him in the cradle.

It's just that, meeting again this time, he could no longer recognize Xiao Budian's strength.

Xiao Budian had already engraved inscriptions on his own Spirit Body.

The Kunpeng Inscriptions were likewise engraved on the Spirit Body; activating the Kunpeng Inscriptions allowed him to roam freely through the field, no one could block his path.

The Kunpeng Inscriptions aren't just extreme speed; there's also extreme power; Xiao Budian passed through the Rain Clan people's sides, palm striking down — that was extreme force.

The Rain Clan's Transformation Spirit Realm were nothing but clay chickens and tile dogs, slapped into blood mist by Xiao Budian.

With the Moving Blood Realm's power added, Xiao Budian's strength could already exert several hundred thousand jin of divine power; this was already the strongest power below a Pseudo-God.

Xiao Budian stopped his steps, looking at the emptiness before him with not a single person; the Shi Guo commoners looked at Xiao Budian's strength.

"This... is too strong, right."

"Too strong but still hasn't crossed the Inscription Mirror; the Rain King is a Venerable expert; Xiao Budian facing him definitely has no chance of winning."

"He already knows my Kunpeng Precious Technique; speed is very fast; must make him leave."

"Xiao Budian is already Shi Guo's hope; cannot let him meet with mishap."

The Shi Guo commoners were still thinking of ways to make Xiao Budian leave, not hoping he'd encounter danger.

Xiao Budian heard their voices, yet didn't pay them any heed.

The Rain King wasn't anxious to act; instead he stared at the power on Xiao Budian's body.

"Kunpeng Precious Technique!"

"Looks like you have quite a few treasures on you; since you've come to send yourself to death, I'll grant your wish."

He coveted the treasures on Xiao Budian's body.

Xiao Budian never paid him any heed.

He activated the Kunpeng Inscriptions, speed increasing once more; Xiao Budian's realm was already a matter of course; now activating the inscription power, he touched the Lightning Tribulation once again.

Dark clouds pressed down from the sky; he could barely suppress his realm any longer, about to achieve a breakthrough.

The Rain King saw the dark clouds atop Xiao Budian's head, couldn't help but be surprised; the aura transmitted by the Lightning Tribulation had already exceeded the Inscription Mirror's breakthrough category; afraid even breaking into the Array Formation Realm wouldn't have a Lightning Tribulation like Xiao Budian's.

"Your current state, yet you still dare show yourself — truly overestimating yourself; the Lightning Tribulation is about to descend; even if we don't act, you'll still die in the Lightning Tribulation."

Xiao Budian acted; the Rain King retreated without fighting; the Lightning Tribulation became increasingly distinct; the Rain King was thoroughly shocked.

The Lightning Tribulation's intensity was actually still increasing.

"Leave this place."

The Rain King perceived the Lightning Tribulation's danger, leading the Rain Clan and pulling distance from Xiao Budian.

Xiao Budian, however, followed closely behind them.

"Such a good Lightning Tribulation; what are you afraid of."

When the Lightning Tribulation descends, if there are any other people, the Lightning Tribulation's power will increase greatly; this was originally to prevent those helped by external forces from passing the tribulation.

Xiao Budian redefined the Lightning Tribulation; isn't this just indiscriminate attack.

Facing the Rain Clan, he was alone and unaided; but with the Lightning Tribulation's power descending, the Rain Clan wanting to resist would also have to shed a layer of skin.

Xiao Budian brought the Lightning Tribulation running everywhere; the Rain Clan were scared into scattering in chaos; the Shi Guo commoners saw this scene for the first time, extremely surprised.

"First time seeing someone cross a tribulation who can run while bringing the Lightning Tribulation along."

They felt they'd broadened their horizons.

"No wonder you're his disciple — that brain hole of yours is truly unmatched."

Willow Deity and Jiang Xuan had long since appeared above the nine heavens, watching Xiao Budian's condition; now seeing his behavior, Willow Deity couldn't hide her smile.

Jiang Xuan had originally been quite serious, but seeing Xiao Budian run off with the thunder tribulation in tow, he really couldn't hold it in and laughed out loud.

The Rain Clan was still in terror when they saw the thunder tribulation strike down, landing on Xiao Budian, who stayed rooted in place, utterly motionless.

"Serves you right! Let you be arrogant, even want to bring the thunder tribulation to chase us! Now struck dead by the thunder tribulation, let's see how you still chase."

The Rain Clan halted their steps, waiting for Xiao Budian to be struck dead by the thunder tribulation, yet never expected that Xiao Budian, head lowered, was busy scheming.

Wind rose beneath his feet; Xiao Budian teleported, appearing before the Rain Clan — only then did they realize Xiao Budian had been tricking them.

But it was already too late; the next thunder tribulation descended, and because many people were now beside Xiao Budian, the aura became even more terrifying.

Boom— several hundred bolts of lightning crashed down.

Xiao Budian opposed the lightning with his physical body, while the Rain Clan turned to ashes beneath the thunder tribulation.

Even some existences at the Inscription Realm were struck dead by the thunder tribulation; the Rain King and the rest only experienced it firsthand after entering the tribulation — just how terrifying this thunder tribulation was.

Yet Xiao Budian put up no resistance at all, actually hard-tanking a round of thunder tribulation; this made the Rain King feel even more strongly that Xiao Budian could not be left alive.

He had already pulled away distance from Xiao Budian, looking for a chance to strike at him.

Seeing this, Jiang Xuan descended from the sky, landing beside him.

"My disciple is breaking through — you'd best behave yourself."

The Rain King saw Jiang Xuan, felt not the slightest fear, but instead sneered.

"You, a mere Inscription Mirror cultivator, dare speak such words to me? Blind arrogance. Since you claim to be his master, then you go die first."

He didn't even use a divine ability, thinking he could kill Jiang Xuan, but his hand froze in midair, unable to move, as Jiang Xuan patted his shoulder.

The Rain King's shoulder instantly shattered, blood spraying everywhere.

"You're not even qualified to be my opponent."

Hearing Jiang Xuan's voice enter his ears, the Rain King only then perceived that his shoulder had already been shattered.

Jiang Xuan released his Primordial Spirit pressure, pressing down on the Rain King's body; the Rain King's body and soul shattered to pieces, devoid of vitality.

After Xiao Budian resisted the thunder tribulation and saw Jiang Xuan appear, he felt a sense of security and threw himself wholeheartedly into crossing the tribulation.

This thunder tribulation was too powerful; he had even hard-tanked it once — if he didn't adjust his own power, he'd likely never make it out of the tribulation alive.

The thunder tribulation struck down again; Xiao Budian opposed it with his full body's strength.

After a dozen or so rounds of thunder tribulation crashed down, Xiao Budian's body was already charred black.

Yet he comprehended the power of lightning, inscribing the lightning's inscription patterns onto his Spirit Body, adding lightning inscription patterns, giving his body resistance; the thunder tribulation was powerful, but its damage to him was limited.

Xiao Budian watched the lightning in the sky about to dissipate, feeling deeply unconvinced in his heart.

"You sent down lightning so many times, and now you want to just leave like that? How could that be — you haven't given me my reward yet."

He puffed up angrily, rushed into the sky, pointed at the lightning and berated it.

The departing lightning suddenly returned with a vengeance; Xiao Budian seized the chance, resisted the thunder tribulation with his lightning inscription patterns, and charged into the high sky.

"What's he trying to do?"

Willow Deity was baffled.

Jiang Xuan, however, felt a bit guilty, touching his nose.

"I told him before — inside the thunder tribulation there's a Thunder Tribulation Pool, and the liquid inside is very delicious."

Willow Deity understood why Xiao Budian was so interested in the thunder tribulation — he had his sights set on the Thunder Tribulation Liquid.

"You wouldn't be saying the Thunder Tribulation Liquid tastes even better than beast milk, would you?"

With Xiao Budian's current drive, if you said he had no ulterior motive, no one would believe it; the only thing Willow Deity could think of was that he was treating the Thunder Tribulation Liquid as beast milk.

Otherwise, he couldn't possibly have this much interest.

Xiao Budian rushed into the Thunder Court Pool and began feasting; the Thunder Tribulation Liquid was no ordinary thing — it tasted extremely delicious, and he drank mouthful after mouthful without stopping.

Watching Xiao Budian drink so happily in the Thunder Tribulation Pool, both Jiang Xuan and Willow Deity wore pained smiles.

This seemingly absurd behavior likewise appeared before the eyes of the Shi Guo commoners.

They saw the Rain Clan get killed and were still rejoicing in their hearts, yet pinched a sweat for Xiao Budian, afraid he would perish in the thunder tribulation.

Who would have thought Xiao Budian would turn around and charge straight into the thunder tribulation.

"What is he doing? What exactly is in the thunder tribulation that he dares do this?"

"Legend says the most powerful thunder tribulations contain a Thunder Tribulation Pool, and the Thunder Tribulation Liquid within is the supreme treasure for tempering the Spirit Body — he must be after the Thunder Tribulation Liquid."

The Shi Guo people were petrified; why call it a legend — the thunder tribulation was already incomparably terrifying, and Xiao Budian's was a peerless, unparalleled thunder tribulation; merely surviving in such a tribulation was no easy feat.

Now he even had to charge into the thunder tribulation to obtain the Thunder Tribulation Liquid — in the Xia Jie, they had never heard of such a situation.

"Little Stone's future will surely be a blaze of radiance; if not for him this time, Shi Guo would surely perish — matters of all aspects must have an accounting!"

"Right! Arrest all those involved — Shi Guo has no need for such vicious-hearted people."

Among the crowd, though many were indignant on Xiao Budian's behalf, some still spoke up.

"But the Double Pupil wielder as a beneficiary — do we have to move against him too? The Stone Emperor is absent; I'm afraid we're no match for Shi Yi."

"Double Pupil wielder, pah — I actually believed he'd come before, but now it seems he's just a self-serving opportunist; Shi Guo gave him the highest-tier cultivation resources, and now he's probably forgotten what Shi Guo even is."

Several different voices rang out in Shi Guo, arguing with one another.

Xiao Budian was drinking happily in the Thunder Tribulation Pool when he suddenly sensed a threat from the thunder tribulation.

He actually disliked that he had drunk too much.

"How can you be so stingy? How many thunder tribulations can a person have in a lifetime? You've still got so much — what's wrong with me drinking a bit more?"

The thunder tribulation cloud layer turned pitch-black, beginning to threaten Xiao Budian.

Seeing the thunder tribulation was getting serious, Xiao Budian kept muttering under his breath, not forgetting to pull out his Beast Milk Jar to store the Thunder Tribulation Liquid.

Seeing the thunder tribulation really about to strike down, only then did he leave the thunder tribulation cloud layer.

After reappearing, he stared at the Yu Clan.

"Your clan chief is merely at the mid-stage of the Venerable realm; he is no match for the Stone Emperor. Speak quickly — who else are your allies?"

He interrogated the surviving members of the Yu Clan.

The people of the Yu Clan, however, showed no fear, staring at Boy.

"You have stirred up a huge disaster! This time you are facing a colossus; you actually dared to act against the Yu Clan. Our allies and the powerful forces behind us will not let you off."

A Formation Arrangement realm expert of the Yu Clan pointed at Boy; Boy engraved the Thunder Inscription into his own body.

At this moment, he activated the Kunpeng Inscription and the Thunder Inscription.

The two inscriptions combined; the speed of the thunder accelerated and grew heavy, and a terrifying power surged toward the Formation Arrangement realm man.

Sensing the threat, the Yu Clan expert countered with a Yu Clan secret art, but under the thunder his secret art crumbled completely.

Boy struck like a storm, killing the Yu Clan's Formation Arrangement realm expert; the remaining people no longer had the courage to resist and told Boy everything they knew.

"Mo Ling Hu? And the Western Sect — I have remembered them."

At the same time, Boy was quite concerned about the powerful forces behind them that they spoke of; they were already Venerables, and logically speaking, in the Xia Jie they were already the most powerful existences.

But from Jiang Xuan, he knew that above the Venerable realm there were still Pseudo-Gods, yet in the Xia Jie, no Pseudo-Gods were seen.

The Stone Emperor was the person most likely to step into the Pseudo-God realm; it was just that he had already met with misfortune.

"Could it be that behind this there is still a giant hand manipulating everything?"

Boy decided to ask Jiang Xuan first; he found Jiang Xuan.

"Master, Liu Shen, this is Thunder Tribulation Liquid, for you!"

"Now my cultivation realm is finally the same as yours; when I grow even stronger in the future, I will be able to protect you."

Seeing Boy bring out the Thunder Tribulation Liquid and give it to himself, Jiang Xuan and Liu Shen were deeply moved.

For the two of them, the Thunder Tribulation Liquid no longer had any great use; it could only serve as a beverage.

Yet the two did not refuse his kind intention; Boy had brought it back with great difficulty, and the two of them still gave full weight to its emotional value.

"Disciple, you have a heart."

Jiang Xuan rubbed his head; Boy smiled faintly.

But he discovered that Jiang Xuan's cultivation realm was actually one realm higher than his own.

"Master, your cultivation realm? You've had a breakthrough!"

Boy seemed to have discovered some earth-shattering secret.

Jiang Xuan did not explain, merely nodding slightly.

"Yes, you still need to continue working hard; otherwise I won't have anyone to back me up."

Boy nodded very seriously.

"Master, rest assured; I will definitely cultivate even more diligently."

These words made Liu Shen and the others very happy.

After learning that his cultivation realm was lower than Jiang Xuan's, Boy's first thought was not how to catch up; that kind of mindset would drive him to take shortcuts. (Chapter End)
