Chapter 254: Chu Ling’s Fall!!!

Chu Ling heard Lu Ye’s words.

Despair completely filled her eyes.

“Young Master… if… if you had told me the truth about the Chu Sword Villa back then, would we… would we still be like this?”

A hint of loneliness appeared in Lu Ye’s gaze.

“If I had told you, would you have believed me?”

Chu Ling froze.

Would she believe it?

In this life, she learned the truth about Chu Sword Villa, but what about her own actions?

When it came to betrayal, she betrayed.

Even just recently, she was willing to kill Bai Qiulan and Yue Hongling.

Willing to betray An Li.

The word “betrayal” had always lingered around her, whether in her last life or this one.

In that moment, Chu Ling finally showed a hint of relief in her eyes.

“Can I ask you for one last favor, Young Master?”

“Speak!”

Lu Ye did not say whether he agreed or not.

“Could you spare Huan Ling?”

Lu Ye let out a soft sigh.

Chu Ling had finally understood, but unfortunately, it was too late.

“If she doesn’t provoke me, I won’t kill her.”

Chu Ling knelt down in submission.

“I was wrong…”

Those three words were the most sincere words Chu Ling had spoken in this life, up to now.

Not seeking life, just seeking death.

Lu Ye swung his sword.

Chu Ling fell!!!

……

……

……

The Emperor’s Banner waved gently, and Chu Ling’s soul entered within it.

During this time, the Emperor’s Banner was on the verge of being stuffed full of souls, converting them into a massive amount of soul juice that surged into Chu Ling’s soul.

Chu Ling’s soul body was rapidly enhancing.

Lu Ye looked up, surrounded by endless darkness, looking to trap him here.

However, Lu Ye was quite familiar with this situation.

Crossing Tribulation!

Crossing Tribulation could solve most of the predicaments he faced.

If it couldn’t be resolved, then it meant the power of the tribulation lightning wasn’t strong enough!

“Boom!”

Outside the dark abyss, a thunderclap echoed through the heavens and earth.

Following that, a massive amount of tribulation clouds gathered. In the void, they didn’t look very large, but if they appeared on land, the area of the clouds would be at least a hundred thousand miles.

The tribulation winds howled.

At this moment, the nature of heavenly tribulation was vividly displayed.

Heaven’s tribulation doesn’t care where you are.

As long as you start to cross tribulation, the tribulation clouds will promptly arrive above your head; this is one of the most important principles of the Heavenly Dao.

Lu Ye couldn’t see the tribulation lightning in the darkness.

But it should be quite impressive.

“Boom!”

Purple-gold lightning fell from the sky, filled with overwhelming heavenly might, crashing fiercely into the dark abyss.

In an instant, countless dark forces were shattered by the lightning.

The tribulation winds roared.

It seemed extremely dissatisfied with Lu Ye hiding in this darkness, so the next bolt of lightning was directly a purple-gold beam, instantly piercing through the dark abyss at the Third Heaven.

Purple-gold illuminated the void.

All the monsters and demons felt an overwhelming fear just by looking at the color of this lightning.

Purple-gold lightning.

Isn’t that a bit outrageous?

This shouldn’t be happening at the Third Heaven, right?

Which Third Heaven cultivator crosses tribulation and triggers purple-gold lightning, huh?

Taking advantage of the large amounts of dark energy being shattered by the lightning, Lu Ye quickly escaped the dark abyss.

Next, it was time for him to face the tribulation lightning.

With a long roar.

Sword light shot up into the sky, immense sword light spanning hundreds of miles, with Lu Ye’s body feeling like an ant, yet he rode this terrifying sword light, charging towards the tribulation.

“Boom!”

The lightning and sword light disintegrated simultaneously.

A massive sucking force emerged from within Lu Ye, as countless shattered tribulation lightning surged into his body, creating resounding rumbles within him.

Lu Ye spat out a mouthful of blood.

The fourth bolt of lightning followed closely.

Lu Ye drew his sword again, countless sword lights transformed into swimming dragons, charging towards the lightning.

But the power of this fourth bolt of lightning was already quite abnormal; all the sword lights were pulverized and fell hard upon Lu Ye.

Lu Ye’s entire body turned to charcoal, the Aroma of Achievement in Dao suddenly blossomed with a rich fragrance.

“That was a bit too intense.”

To be honest, it was really intense.

The power of this tribulation lightning had definitely exceeded what should be expected for someone in the Return to One realm crossing tribulation.

But, this was exactly what Lu Ye wanted!

“Boom!”

The fifth bolt of lightning fell!

“Supreme Sword!”

Lu Ye swung his sword again, this time, an overwhelming supreme sword intent surged into the sky.

However, the power of the fifth bolt of lightning increased even further from the fourth.

This time, Lu Ye was directly blasted apart by the lightning.

The Aroma of Achievement in Dao spread across thousands of miles.

However, this time, he was crossing tribulation in the void, especially at the extreme edge of the Nine Heavens’ void. Forget living beings, even spiritual energy was at its scarcest.

Usually, no one would choose to cross tribulation in such a place because both spell power and recovery ability would plummet.

Lu Ye was purely out of options.

After his body exploded, it quickly reassembled.

A blood-red dan药 was swallowed by Lu Ye, and his broken body began to rapidly recover.

The sixth bolt of lightning was coming in ferociously.

Lu Ye raised his Qilin arm, and with a punch!

Celestial Lord Fist!

“Boom!”

As his fist shadow passed through, the void left black traces, and space itself was punched open.

His fist imprint and the heavenly lightning crashed together violently.

This time, the lightning was shattered.

Lu Ye took this opportunity to quickly restore his body to its optimal state.

The tribulation clouds began to brew.

It seemed not satisfied, so the enormous tribulation clouds began to contract.

Lu Ye felt no fear.

He was least afraid of crossing tribulation, whether in this life or his last.

Heavenly tribulation is nothing; what cannot destroy him will only make him stronger!

“Boom!”

The seventh bolt of lightning.

With a long roar, the Heavenly Silkworm Nine Transformations activated, and his aura erupted.

Another punch slammed towards the lightning.

“Boom!”

Although the power of the lightning increased again, it was still shattered by Lu Ye’s blow.

The tribulation clouds began to shrink again.

The purple-gold lightning gleamed within the clouds, transforming into a lightning ball that came crashing toward Lu Ye.

Still the Celestial Lord Fist.

Lu Ye’s entire arm erupted with blood-red light, this punch carrying the power to break through the heavens.

“Boom!”

The eighth bolt of lightning was pulverized.

All the tribulation clouds disappeared, or perhaps more accurately, the black tribulation clouds vanished.

The remaining clouds were entirely presented in purple-gold; the golden hue was almost fading away.

Lu Ye’s expression turned extremely serious.

Here it comes!

His body suddenly began to wither.

But his aura became even more terrifying; in terms of strength, he soared to a shocking level of the Celestial Realm, seventh layer.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

Lightning and man rushed toward each other in the void at an alarming speed.

In an instant, they collided fiercely.

The immense thunderous roar rippled through the void with the flow of spiritual energy.

Lu Ye exploded again!

The Aroma of Achievement in Dao spread across ten thousand miles.

A large quantity of Aroma of Achievement was released.

Lu Ye’s shattered flesh began to reassemble, rapidly absorbing the power of tribulation.

Ascend!

Quickly ascend!

Let’s see if there’s still time to find An Li, so the Heavenly Dao could give a good smack to the source of darkness through her.

Ascend!
