I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 504
Chapter 504: Tribulation, Golden Core Realm Spirit Beast
“What… is that?” Xiaoyan was completely stunned
when she saw Xiaoli, who had grown to several feet tall, his fur blazing like literal black flames, emanating an incredibly powerful aura. She watched in astonishment. She had never known Xiaoli possessed such abilities. Beside her, Wuxing was equally stunned. It had only just realized how powerful and terrifying Xiaoli could truly be when he truly focused on his power. Based on the aura Xiaoli was emitting, Wuxing felt that even his own flesh wouldn’t be able to withstand a single strike from him. Boom! As Xiaoyan and Wuxing stared in shock, the ninth golden lightning bolt struck Xiaoli without fuss. The powerful lightning, imbued with destructive energy, pierced Xiaoli’s body in an instant. The golden lightning spread, scorching his remarkably defensive fur, leaving his skin ripped and bruised, leaving countless wounds. The final thunderbolt of the Golden Cloud Tribulation was so powerful that even Xiao Li, who had mobilized all his inherent strength and unleashed his various magical powers, was nearly shattered by it! Lu Qing closely monitored Xiao Li’s condition, a faint light already surging in his hand. If Xiao Li’s vitality weakened to the critical point he had anticipated, he would strike immediately. With his current strength, which was gradually improving against the world’s limits, not even the Golden Core Tribulation could stop him from saving others. Fortunately, under Lu Qing’s watchful eye, Xiao Li’s body was nearly shattered by the thunderbolt, but he ultimately managed to survive. Although his vitality was constantly declining, it never weakened enough for Lu Qing to attack. As the golden tribulation cloud descended, a streak of light descended, gradually dissipating, and the massive vortex of the tribulation slowly receded, Lu Qing finally felt at ease. ”Xiao Li!” Wait until all the noise on the mountaintop subsided. Lu Qing brought Xiaoyan and the Five Elements to a mountain peak that had once again been reduced to scorched earth, even flattened by the tribulation’s lightning. Xiao Li was enveloped in a thick white mist. This was the vital energy bestowed by heaven and earth after successfully surviving the tribulation, imbued with the power of laws. It could help the survivor rebuild their body and heal their injuries. Xiao Li had already released his major and minor Ruyi magical powers and returned to his original form. However, the gaping hole through his chest, nearly severed in half, remained a horrifying sight. Fortunately, thanks to the vital energy bestowed by heaven and earth, coupled with the residual medicinal properties of the Five Elements Lotus Seeds, Xiao Li’s injuries were healing at a visible rate. His entire body was undergoing a comprehensive, incredible transformation. Finally, after a long time, the white mist of vital energy dissipated, and Xiao Li opened his eyes. Not only had his injuries completely healed, not a single scar remained. An incredibly powerful aura emanated from him, shaking the air around him and causing it to distort. That was the might of a spirit beast at the Golden Core Realm, or perhaps even the Demon Core Realm. So terrifying was this might that even Xiaoyan and Wuxing felt a little overwhelmed. Fortunately, Xiaoli quickly realized this. With his mind in control, he quickly restrained his aura. ”Ah, Ah Qing, I, I successfully transcended the tribulation!” After restraining his aura, Xiaoli spoke joyfully. However, these words weren’t spoken through telepathy, but directly. His voice was childish, identical to his own. However, this was Xiaoli’s first time speaking in this way, and he was clearly unskilled, so his words stuttered a bit.
“Finally, we succeeded! It was truly thrilling. We were all quite worried,” Lu Qing said with a smile. He
wasn’t overly surprised by Xiao Li’s words.
He had long known from the records in the classics that, except for a few unusual types,
most demonic beasts and spirit beasts, upon reaching the Golden Core stage, would refine their transverse bones and acquire the ability to speak.
Clearly, Xiao Li was one of them.
Xiao Yan, on the other hand, widened her eyes upon hearing Xiao Li’s words.
“It’s all thanks to the lotus seeds you gave me, Ah Qing. If it weren’t for them, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to hold out.”
Xiao Li still felt a lingering fear from the memory of the previous thunder tribulation.
He had thought himself mentally prepared.
But when he faced the tribulation, he realized the horror of it was beyond all preparation.
Even after activating his major and minor Ruyi magical powers, which greatly increased his strength and physical strength,
he still seemed vulnerable when he took the final thunderbolt.
In that moment, he truly believed his body would explode and turn to ashes.
Fortunately, the lotus seeds Lu Qing had given it ahead of time contained immense life force, continuously sustaining its essence and maintaining its physical form in those final moments.
Otherwise, it might not have survived this tribulation.
“Xiao Li, you should have been frugal,” Lu Qing said, shaking his head. “You swallowed all the lotus seeds I gave you. That way, you wouldn’t have been in such a precarious situation.”
“I thought the Five Elements Lotus Seeds were so precious, so I should have used them sparingly. I didn’t expect the tribulation to be so powerful,” Xiao Li said a little embarrassedly.
“There’s no need for that. Treasures are ultimately intangible. Your safety is far more important than a mere treasure,” Lu Qing said with resignation.
Lu Qing had made extensive preparations for Xiao Li and the Five Elements during this tribulation.
Not only had he refined numerous magical weapons for them to withstand the tribulation, but
he had also given them mid-grade spirit stones for emergency use.
He even gave each of them three Five Elements Lotus Seeds to use in critical recovery.
However, Xiao Li only took one, leaving Lu Qing feeling frustrated.
If Xiao Li had consumed all the lotus seeds earlier, with the immense vitality of the Five Elements Lotus Seeds as support,
this time’s tribulation would have been much easier.
“Wu Xing, when you go through the tribulation later, don’t be frugal with your treasures. Prioritize surviving the tribulation.”
Lu Qing thought for a moment, then turned to Wu Xing and warned him.
This guy was much more straightforward than Xiao Li. Don’t let him get himself into trouble just to save treasures.
“Understood, Master!” Wu Xing replied immediately.
After witnessing Xiao Li’s tribulation, Wu Xing understood that the terror of the tribulation was no joke.
Even with Xiao Li’s terrifying power at the last moment, he had nearly perished in the tribulation.
If he had been careless, he might not have survived this tribulation.
With this realization, Wu Xing’s complacency, which had grown after refining the Dragon Turtle’s true blood and transforming his bloodline, finally calmed down.
“Okay, then, it’s your turn to overcome the tribulation. Be careful.”
After Lu Qing finished his instructions, he took Xiao Li and Xiao Yan and flew away.
He left Wu Xing at the spot where Xiao Li had just overcome the tribulation, ready to face its own tribulation.
Boom!
When Lu Qing and the others returned to the mountain where they had been staying, the sky suddenly shifted.
Boundless might emerged from the heavens, and the tribulation cloud vortex that had previously disappeared reappeared.
