Chapter 1462: Becoming a Saint (1)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Zhou’s soundwave swept out to the horizon.

Meng Zhang, who was hidden in the fog, let out a low roar. With the Pillar of Destruction in the center, its roar spread within a radius of 100 miles.

The dark fog began to roil again as the sounds of thunder and lightning reverberated in the air again. Following that, a huge and terrifying lightning bolt began to flash.

Upon seeing this, Duanmu Dian grew serious as he said, “No one’s allowed to move!”

“Senior?!”

“Are you going to disobey the main Great Saint of the Evil Sky Pavilion?” Duanmu Dian frowned.

Everyone fell silent.

Then, Duanmu Dian flashed and appeared next to Lu Zhou, leaving afterimages in his wake. He grabbed Lu Zhou and said, “Old Lu, let’s go!”

Lu Zhou turned to Duanmu Dian and asked with a frown, “What are you doing?”

Duanmu Dian looked at the lightning bolt flas.h.i.+ng in the sky, acc.u.mulating power, and said, “That lightning bolt is no different from the lightning bolts from a lightning tribulation. It’s extremely dangerous. If you go through a lightning tribulation before you’re ready, you’ll risk ruining your cultivation!”

“Hm? Lightning tribulation?”

“Why are you talking nonsense now?” Duanmu Dian felt that his old friend was a little obtuse. Why did he have to explain such a simple matter again? In the end, he sighed and hurriedly said, “There are many ways for Venerable Masters to become Saints. There’s no need to choose the most dangerous

way, which is the lightning tribulation. It won’t be good. Trust me!”

“You’re saying a lightning tribulation can help a Venerable Master become a Saint?” Lu Zhou asked.

“Can you stop pretending? No matter how good you are at acting, I know you’re a Saint! I’ve seen through you; I just didn’t expose you,” Duanmu Dian said. Then, he looked up and said, “Let’s go before it’s too late!”

Duanmu Dian was just about to mobilize his Primal Qi to bring them away when the lightning bolt, with a width of hundreds of feet, descended from the sky. It seemed to contain the mysterious power of the vast universe.

Lu Zhou turned around and struck Duanmu Dian with his divine power. “Get out of the way!”

‘You’re too much of a hindrance!”

How could Lu Zhou not take advantage of this chance? Initially, he was not very certain, but after listening to Duanmu Dian, he was determined to pa.s.s this lightning tribulation.

Duanmu Dian, who was pushed away by Lu Zhou’s palm strike, widened his eyes in horror as he watched the lightning bolt descend. He was very moved and muttered to himself, “Old friend, in order to save me… Why are you doing this?”

Finally, Duanmu Dian’s reason took over. He did not advance but returned to stand with the others from the Evil Sky Pavilion. The jade talisman was still in his hand. At the critical moment, only he could save the others so he could not stay too far away from them.

Duanmu Sheng hurried to Duanmu Dian’s side and asked, “What about my master?”

Duanmu Dian’s expression grew abnormally solemn. At the same time, his body emitted a faint light.

“The Saint Light!” Qin Naihe said with a hint of envy.

The Saint Light, like its name suggested, was unique to Saints. It helped a Saint resonate with the force of heaven and earth and grant them an extraordinary aura. Those below the level of Saints would naturally feel reverent when they saw the light.

Duanmu Sheng was shocked by this.

Duanmu Dian pushed Duanmu Sheng back to his original position as he sternly said, “If anyone dares to move again, I’ll punish him or her on Old Lu’s behalf!”

Everyone no longer dared to move. They looked at the sky in a daze, not knowing what was happening. They only saw the lightning bolt that had struck Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou spread his arms as his long hair fluttered in the wind. His robe seemed to be trying its best to resist the paralyzing power of the lightning bolt. His brows were knitted together, his eyes shone with determination, and his teeth were tightly clenched.

He tried to mobilize his divine power with the help of the blue avatar.

The lightning bolt had destroyed his Eight Extraordinary Meridians with just a strike, and his Dantian’s sea of Qi was charred.

This lightning bolt was 1,000 times stronger than before. More terrifyingly, it was not the only lightning bolt.

As lightning bolts continued to strike him, the pain seemed to pierce deep into his soul.

Under the tyrannical strikes of the lightning, he could not manifest his blue avatar in his Dantian’s sea of Qi.

Lu Zhou looked at the system interface.

Critical Block Card -1

Critical Block Card -1

Lu Zhou’s heart sank as he watched the number of his Critical Block Cards decreasing. He only had 120 Critical Block Cards. Based on the speed they were decreasing, he would lose all his Critical Block Cards in two minutes.

Lu Zhou slowly descended from the sky. His destroyed Eight Extraordinary Meridians made it difficult for him to gather Primal Qi. The last bit of Primal Qi he had only helped him to slow his descent.

As he continued to fall, the two moon-like orbs disappeared.

Meng Zhang looked satisfied as it closed its eyes again.

The entire place darkened again.

The people from the Evil Sky Pavilion only watched silently as Lu Zhou fell from the sky. They could not move.

Duanmu Dian’s expression was extremely unsightly. However, he knew he had to retain his rationality. Otherwise, the Evil Sky Pavilion would have to pay an even higher price.

They were facing Meng Zhang, one of the Four Divinities of Heaven. Was there anyone who could rival it?

At this time, only Duanmu Dian alone could restrain the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion and stop them from acting recklessly. After living for tens of thousands of years, he had grown numb to life and death. He had seen brothers and friends fall one after another. The powerful heart he had cultivated from

time and experience was not something the young people of the Evil Sky Pavilion possessed.

“Don’t move,” Duanmu Dian said again. His voice was slightly hoa.r.s.e. His hand was ready to crush the jade talisman, but he held back. He felt as though he was holding the heaviest thing in the world at this moment.

For the first time, the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion felt despair. In their eyes, the Pavilion Master of the Evil Sky Pavilion had always been invincible. Since they had followed him, he had always triumphed over his enemies no matter who they were..
