Chapter 1469: Chapter 1470: Heavenly Tribulation is a Good Thing
“How did you manage it?”
Gu Ling climbed out of the pit, her face full of amazement, looking Li Xiaobai up and down. This junior brother Cai Kun was not even as cultivated as she was, yet he had the capability to emerge unscathed from the Heavenly Tribulation!
Just now, she had heard all the commotion from the outside. This junior brother single-handedly withstood the Heavenly Tribulation meant for two people without a scratch on him. He must be carrying an extraordinary Magic Treasure, presumably bestowed by Elder Fen Tian.
“A mere Heavenly Tribulation is nothing worth mentioning. Even if it were ten times stronger, it wouldn’t faze me!”
“The only one in this world who can harm me is myself!”
Li Xiaobai said calmly, hands clasped behind his back, his robes fluttering, moving without wind, exuding an overpowering aura in the air.
Above in the sky, the dark clouds that were initially dispersing began to gather again. The rumbling of thunder echoed, seemingly in response to his words.
Gu Ling: “Uh… no need to say more, junior brother, I believe you!”
“Junior Brother Cai Kun!”
“Please save us, quickly stop this Heavenly Tribulation!”
“It was those few who attacked you earlier, it has nothing to do with us!”
“That’s right, you invited us in, you must take full responsibility!”
“Stop the Heavenly Tribulation quickly!”
The surrounding cultivators and disciples, upon seeing Li Xiaobai appear, couldn’t care about their astonishment anymore, and shouted urgently.
The violent thunder force had ravaged them beyond recognition, many bodies were terribly broken, with stark white bones exposed.
If this continued, they would be scattered to the winds!
Who could have guessed such a close shave with death just for joining in the excitement?
“Those who see are entitled, everything has its causality!”
“If you want to settle this causality, we can part with some wealth, one Rare Earth Crystal each, is that acceptable?”
Li Xiaobai looked at those trapped in the thunder pool ahead and said cheerfully.
He was initially pondering what method to use to squeeze some wealth out of these people, little did he know they would deliver it to him voluntarily!
“One Rare Earth Crystal?”
The cultivators’ faces changed several times. Their cultivation level wasn’t high, and their status couldn’t compare to that of Immortal Gu Ling. They had no Rare Earth Crystals. This stuff couldn’t be found in an entire vein of Rare Earth mines.
This Cai Kun is really asking for the moon!
“Junior brother, isn’t that too much, you can’t exploit people in their time of need just because we’re from the same sect!”
“Yes, no matter what, this matter arose because of you. This forty-ninth battlefield is yours, and if an accident happens on your turf, you can’t escape blame!”
Several senior disciples glared angrily, saying coldly, they could still hold on for a while, unlike the others who were more urgent, trying to negotiate with Li Xiaobai, among which were the cultivators who had taken action against him earlier.
But the next second, they were dumbfounded.
Li Xiaobai appeared not to have heard them, and called out loudly to the other cultivators: “Those with savings come over here, those who don’t want to pay just stay put.”
Under the Heavenly Tribulation, the cultivators instantly divided into two groups, one part following Li Xiaobai to the other side, leaving behind those who were attempting to negotiate, bewildered and stunned on the spot.
“Junior Brother Cai Kun, I don’t have Rare Earth Crystals, I offer my entire assets for a chance to live, please give me a chance!”
“Junior Brother Cai Kun, can we two combine for one Rare Earth Crystal?”
“…”
The disciples and cultivators said with urgency.
They were not like the senior disciples. The Tribulation zapping their bodies was a real drain on their life force, and they couldn’t hold on.
“Deal!”
“No rush, can you dig holes, bury yourselves individually here!”
Li Xiaobai pointed to the ground and said plainly.
The disciples nodded like pecking chicks, imitating Li Xiaobai’s previous actions and began frantically digging into the ground.
One by one, the force waves erupted, blowing enormous holes in the ground.
The cultivators leapt in and buried themselves, having learned Gu Ling’s maneuvers by heart earlier. Although they didn’t know how Li Xiaobai did it, there was no doubt he had something to counter the Heavenly Tribulation, and right now they had no other option but to trust him.
“So much Heavenly Tribulation, it’s enough, enough!”
Li Xiaobai looked at the massive thunder pools in the sky, licked his lips, took off his shirt again, and lay on his back, defensively quadrupling his immunity, his Insulating Body isolating all thunder and lightning power.
[Attribute Point + 10 billion…]
[Attribute Point + 20 billion…]
[Attribute Point + 30 billion…]
[…]
The System panel showed escalating values, Attribute Points skyrocketing.
This wave of Heavenly Tribulations was indeed overwhelming, completely in a different league compared to Gu Ling earlier. Li Xiaobai clicked his tongue in admiration, luckily he had fourfold defensive power, otherwise he might not have endured it.
However, the benefits were tremendous. All the disciples who came with him were in the Transcendent Realm, while the senior disciples who reached the Immortal Platform Realm, due to their pride, didn’t come. The Heavenly Tribulation was still within the attainable range.
But the senior disciples didn’t know the details within, staring dumbfounded as Li Xiaobai lay back down, silently enduring the Heavenly Tribulation, their faces full of astonishment. The previous Gu Ling’s Heavenly Tribulation was already outrageous, now in the eye of the storm, this guy was unfazed.
It was the first time they saw someone crossing tribulation in such a manner, resisting dozens of Heavenly Tribulations alone. The thunder wasn’t even striking one after another now, but cascading like endless raindrops, with Silver Serpents dancing wildly in sight.
“What on earth is his cultivation, just a mere Transcendent Realm, yet he possesses such power!”
“It must be the treasure, Elder Fen Tian took him as a foster son, this guy must have received protective treasures from Elder Fen Tian!”
“What should we do, this guy can truly withstand the Heavenly Tribulation, should we go over too?”
The senior disciples’ eyes flashed with different hues, failing utterly in haggling, and now they had left themselves stranded, as they were simply being ignored. The Immortal Platform Realm’s Heavenly Tribulation was no small matter, and it was just in the preliminary stage; to fully endure it would lead to severe injury, if not death.
“You ignored me just now, now you can’t climb even if you wanted to!”
“Dear senior brothers, your cultivation is high, it would be wise to focus on experiencing and understanding your own tribulations.”
“This junior brother is weak, better not embarrass himself!”
Li Xiaobai crossed his legs, smiling, with a look of utmost leisure.
“Damn it…”
They cursed inwardly, wanting to rush over but their legs didn’t obey. They had missed the prime opportunity as the Heavenly Tribulation spread out, preventing any further movement.
“This Heavenly Tribulation is a good thing, find a couple of disciples preparing for tribulation next, if anyone irritates me, just summon the Heavenly Tribulation on them, whoever faces it will die!”
