CHAPTER 59: CHAPTER 59: TRIBULATION

Cen Lizhui temporarily used his own spiritual power to set up the Immortal Sect’s Thunder Attraction Array, while Chen Muxue curiously watched the spiritual power flow beneath her feet, forming a rather beautiful array.

Fei Ying was stunned for a moment, not expecting Cen Lizhui to achieve this level. The Thunder Attraction Array was unique to the Immortal Sect, not because the array was particularly secretive, but due to its many variables. Only members of the Immortal Sect knew how to calculate the current situation to design the most suitable array.

However, this array is generally arranged using materials that can guide nature’s spiritual energy, rarely using one’s own spiritual power directly for setup.

This array was originally meant to guide nature’s spiritual energy to form a protective shield. When heavenly thunder struck, part of it would be neutralized and absorbed by the spiritual energy, while the other part would be directed into the ground, leaving those within the array to bear very little.

Nonetheless, during any tribulation, no matter the array or magic treasure, they can’t completely withstand it. The person undergoing the tribulation is bound to endure at least one or two strikes of lightning, or else they will be countered by the Heavenly Dao.

Cen Lizhui using his own spiritual power meant he would not only expend a large amount of his own spiritual energy but also very likely endure part of the heavenly thunder.

Fei Ying’s eyes flickered as he thought about the scene of being discovered by Cen Lizhui, coming to a conclusion in his heart.

It seemed the Immortal Sect valued Chen Muxue’s secret skill highly, determined to have it, perhaps?

Fei Ying was not keen on falling behind. The Immortal Sect was already so formidable, losing one Chen Muxue should not be an issue, right?

He immediately performed the Liuyun Sect’s Thunder Attraction Sword Technique.

The surrounding cultivators were dumbfounded, witnessing someone eager to rush in and protect someone else’s practice!

It was just Core Formation, was it really necessary to go this far!

Chen Muxue did not understand and assumed this was an esteemed tradition of the Immortal Cultivation World. She sat in the center of the array, feeling the warmth in her dantian, and suddenly felt as if the routes of various spiritual energies around her became extraordinarily clear.

The iron pot vibrated with a hum, and the first strike of heavenly thunder descended!

The heavenly thunder struck directly on Cen Lizhui’s Thunder Attraction Array. Chen Muxue noticed that she could actually see the energy of the thunder flow along the protective shield, dispersing to the surroundings, and finally into the ground.

With a shift of her mind, the frequency of the vibrating iron pot seemed to resonate with the flow of spiritual power. She felt not just her dantian, but her entire body, growing increasingly warm!

In Chen Muxue’s perception, she could not feel the passage of time, yet in reality, one strike of heavenly thunder after another crashed down rapidly as though it was some grand distribution, with speed increasing more and more!

Cen Lizhui was experiencing for the first time such a number of heavenly thunders during Core Formation, far beyond his imagination. He gritted his teeth and held on with all his might, initially thinking Fei Ying’s Thunder Attraction Sword Technique was redundant but ended up becoming just the right assistance. Even the Sixth Elder was astonishingly amazed while wielding his sword.

"Heavens, is this Core Formation? I’ve never seen heavenly thunder like this before!"

"Why do they and the Sixth Elder not give up? Who on earth is this woman?"

Even Lin Qing, who knew the inside story, looked at his master with a complex expression.

"Who is she?" Liu Lingshi came to Lin Qing’s side. "Could she be the Sixth Elder’s illegitimate daughter?"

After saying that, she smiled sweetly.

Lin Qing hadn’t seen Liu Lingshi joke in a long time, and seeing her lively eyes made his heart stir.

"She is the Sect Leader of Qian Ding Sect."

"Sect Leader?" Liu Lingshi was very surprised, "As the leader of a sect, she only forms her core now?"

She felt that the name Qian Ding Sect was somehow familiar.

Within the array, Chen Muxue seemed to have discovered some kind of switch. She extended a finger, and just as she was about to point it to the ground, she hesitated and switched to using her little finger, pressing it down...
