"No! No! No! Let go of me! I'll die!"
"Your Majesty the Dragon King, save me!"
But Huayan's cries for help hadn't traveled far before they were completely drowned out by the thunder.
Real Man Kunshan stroked the fur of the spiritual beast beside him. Looking at the commotion caused by Shen Qing, he said enviously, "Even in this situation, one can still undergo the tribulation. It's really... I'm tempted to fight you lucky ones!"
But after his sigh, Real Man Kunshan continued to fight with the people from the Main Shrine.
Immortal Huayan was struck by the second thunderbolt and no longer had the strength to shout.
His back was charred black, and the black aura on him had diminished by more than half compared to before.
The power of the heavenly thunder was truly terrifying.
Shen Qing taunted him provocatively, "Hey, aren't you claiming to be an immortal? An immortal who's scared of just two thunderbolts. How weak."
In fact, Huayan didn't have very profound cultivation. All his actions relied on the trace of residual resentment of the dragon clan in his body.
He didn't dare to reveal his abilities in front of others, because if he did, he would be detected by the Heavenly Dao. A few thunderbolts would descend, and the resentment would dissipate. So, he used his aura and teleportation to mislead everyone into thinking he had profound skills.
In fact, he was nothing special.
The dragon horns on Shen Qing's head were originally in a transparent and illusory state, but after two bolts of heavenly thunder, they became more and more distinct.
Huayan stared at Shen Qing with deep hatred in his eyes and cursed foully, "You little bitch... Do you think you can escape your inevitable doom..."
Shen Qing's eyes narrowed, and she did something she had always wanted to do.
She raised her hand and slapped Huayan twice.
She used all her strength in these slaps, which made Shen Qing feel extremely satisfied and directly stunned Huayan.
It had been so long since he had seen such a direct way of attack.
Shen Qing said fiercely, "Since your mouth is still so dirty, let the heavenly thunder purify you some more!"
Huayan widened his eyes in fear, "No..."
Successive bolts of heavenly thunder fell crazily on Huayan. His whole body turned charred black, and there was a smell of burnt flesh.
Feeling the loose skin under her palm, Shen Qing shouted, "Get out of here!"
She directly threw Huayan into the descending heavenly thunder.
After the blinding white light, Huayan was struck into pieces by the thunder, and the black aura dissipated instantly.
Shen Qing shook her hand in disgust to get rid of the black debris on it. "So dirty."
Vaguely, Shen Qing seemed to see a soul floating in the air that looked very similar to Immortal Huayan.
His face was serene, with a gentle smile on his lips. His face was no longer full of false expressions as if wearing a mask, but instead was filled with relief and gratitude.
He nodded slightly to Shen Qing and moved his lips as if to say thank you.
Shen Qing was stunned for a moment and then smiled.
A soul that had been imprisoned for tens of thousands of years after its physical body was occupied finally got liberated and could enter the cycle of reincarnation.
A gust of wind blew, and the soul disappeared without a trace.
The thunder tribulation in the sky hadn't ended yet. With Huayan no longer in front of her, Shen Qing had to face the thunderbolts alone. But Shen Qing didn't feel scared. She stared directly at the clouds in the sky and laughed wantonly and freely, "It's just a dozen, maybe twenty, or perhaps thirty bolts of heavenly thunder. I alone..."
Before Shen Qing could finish her words, she saw a hand reach out and grab her wrist. After a dizzying spin, Shen Qing was pressed under someone.
Li Xian tapped Shen Qing's forehead in annoyance, but his tone was full of tenderness, "This is my thunder tribulation. How can you cheat for me?"
Shen Qing retorted unconvincingly, "The Heavenly Dao often gives people special treatment. Why can't we? Besides, I was just..."
Li Xian lowered his head and directly kissed Shen Qing's chattering lips.
But the kiss ended quickly, like a gentle touch of a dragonfly on water.
Li Xian gently pushed Shen Qing away and said with a smile, "I'll undergo my own thunder tribulation. Qingqing, go to a safe place and guard for me. Please."
When he said "please", Li Xian's voice rose slightly at the end, sounding a bit like he was acting coquettishly.
Shen Qing blushed. Although she was worried about Li Xian's body, she knew he was right. To stabilize one's cultivation, one had to go through the thunder tribulation by oneself. She had already blocked several bolts of thunder for Li Xian, which was enough.
So, before the next thunderbolt fell, Shen Qing left and started to guard not far away.
Thanks to Huayan, no demonic beasts dared to approach this area.
Although she couldn't leave this place, she still kept thinking about the battlefield not far away. Wu Wang had also been called by Shen Qing to help.
The ice dragon shuttled through the demonic beasts and easily froze them all.
The situation seemed to have reversed instantly, and everything was moving in a positive direction.
But how could Han Ze be so easily defeated?
In his human form, he was facing the illusory Dharma forms of three great masters. He only dodged the attacks of the Dharma forms. Seemingly suppressed, he was actually consuming the spiritual energy of the great masters.
The three great masters glanced at each other and immediately realized that they had underestimated him.
The illusory Dharma forms consumed a great deal of energy. If they couldn't defeat Han Ze in a short time, they would surely fail.
So, they chased after Han Ze even more tightly.
Han Ze, from a distance, saw that Shen Qing had already dealt with Huayan.
But he remained calm and evaded the attacks with ease.
He looked at the ground where the blood of the cultivators and demonic beasts was mixed together, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
But this was still far from enough!
Han Ze stretched out his hands and shouted, "Demonic beasts, revel!"
The originally tired demonic beasts immediately became excited. They seemed not to know fatigue, and their combat power increased again.
Facing the crazy demonic beasts and the attacks from the people of the Main Shrine, the cultivators like Real Man Kunshan gradually became slower in their reactions, and they had more and more wounds on their bodies.
Real Man Kunshan stuffed several pills into his mouth in succession. He was not optimistic about the situation.
Could they really defeat these endless demonic beasts and the powerful immortals from the Main Shrine?
He and four other great masters at the Fusion stage had barely managed to kill Du Cang and an unknown immortal.
But there were still so many immortals in the Main Shrine...
If Real Man Kunshan had known that these immortals were just aggregates of resentment and that the heavenly thunder could purify this resentment, he would surely have regretted not throwing these people under the heavenly thunder earlier.
Li Xian was undergoing the tempering of the heavenly thunder in the air. At first, he felt the pain, then he got used to it, and finally, he handled it with ease.
With Shen Qing's dragon blood, Li Xian felt the inexhaustible power in his body. This power made his cultivation and abilities improve further.
Originally, as a merman, he had a natural ability to control water. But now, he hardly needed to consume spiritual energy to cast water-based spells. With just a slight movement of his finger, he could make water condense for his use.
No wonder the dragon clan was almost completely wiped out back then.
Their bodies were full of natural treasures.
