Chapter 171 Showing Off Gets You Struck by Lightning
Hearing Huang Xi's explanation, Lin Hanzhou understood.
It turns out to be the legendary mythical race—the Phoenix.
No wonder the opponent was able to survive for ten thousand years with a cultivation level of half a step into the seventh rank.
Mythical races, said to be ancient beings that have existed since the beginning of the universe.
Its level of existence has long surpassed the imagination of ordinary living beings.
They are born with the ability to control the most fundamental laws of the Great Dao, and when they grow up, they can rival ninth-level cultivators.
These supreme Dao principles, which seem profound and mysterious to ordinary cultivators, are nothing more than innate instincts to them.
For such beings, a mere ten thousand years is but a fleeting moment.
Even someone like Huang Xi, with only a half-step seventh-level cultivation, could normally live for over ten thousand years if she had a longevity elixir.
However, at this moment, Lin Hanzhou suddenly sensed a clear spatial fluctuation coming from the distant Northern Region.
Although this spatial fluctuation is located hundreds of thousands of miles away from here.
But given his current close connection with this world, he was still able to clearly perceive this immediately.
Not only him, but Huang Xi, who was opposite him, also seemed to have noticed something.
A hint of coldness flashed in her beautiful phoenix eyes, and her expression returned to its unchanging indifference.
"They've arrived; this location seems to be a place where the Northern Region has descended."
Huang Xi spoke calmly.
Lin Hanzhou nodded; he could naturally sense their approximate location of arrival.
But what intrigued him was how the other party knew.
They were in the Central Region, which was thousands of miles away from the remote Northern Region.
Even the divine soul of a true seventh-tier powerhouse could not cover such a vast distance.
It seems that this phoenix goddess who has lived for tens of thousands of years has many secrets.
Not only did it transform itself into a pure-blooded phoenix, but it also possessed so many other abilities.
Thinking about all this, Lin Hanzhou slowly stood up from the chair made of an unknown divine wood.
The next moment, his figure disappeared into the quaint and elegant little house.
……
Northern Territory.
On a desolate hill where not a blade of grass grows.
Space distorted violently, like ripples on water.
Five terrifying figures, each with unfathomable auras, suddenly appeared in this place.
The man in the lead was slightly overweight and wore an expensive-looking suit.
It was none other than the Holy Son of the Taiyan Holy Land—Wang Yuanjie.
Upon arriving in the lower realm, Wang Yuanjie secretly grumbled to himself.
The spiritual energy in this lower realm is really of poor quality, only on par with the residences of outer disciples in holy lands.
However, he did not show his disdain, and instead spoke to the four elders.
"This time, I will have to trouble you elders to help me capture that chosen one of destiny. My father will reward you handsomely afterward."
As he spoke, he clasped his hands in a respectful gesture to the four elders beside him, whose auras were all at the peak of the seventh rank.
His tone was full of respect for his elders.
Although he was arrogant and conceited, he was not stupid.
He would still show due respect to these elders who were far more powerful than him.
After all, the reason he could command these terrifying beings who were already at the peak of the seventh rank was entirely because they were doing it for the sake of his eighth-rank father, not because of him.
In this situation, if he dared to continue putting on that arrogant, saintly air in front of these people...
These elders might secretly comply while disobeying orders.
Upon hearing Wang Yuanjie's words, the four elders, who were also dressed in the standard attire of the Taiyan Holy Land, returned the greeting with clasped hands.
"What are you saying, Holy Son? What do you mean by 'troubling' or 'not troubling'?"
One of the elders, who looked like a hermit, stroked his white beard and said with a smile.
"We, the entire Taiyan Holy Land, are one family. It is our honor to serve you."
"Yeah yeah."
Another plump elder, who looked somewhat simple-minded, quickly chimed in.
"Holy Son, rest assured, he's merely a chosen one from the lower realms. We will definitely bring him back safe and sound for you!"
These four elders certainly couldn't pretend to be seniors and boss the holy son around.
After all, the other party has an eighth-level father.
If you offend someone, they might make things difficult for you someday.
The same applies to the other three elders present.
Anyone who dares to speak to the Holy Son in the tone of a senior will be punished.
That person would definitely be ostracized by the other three elders immediately.
How could they easily miss such a good opportunity to get closer to the Holy Son?
Wang Yuanjie was very satisfied with the compliments from the four elders.
The four elders' words clearly expressed their attitude.
Just as he was preparing to contact his spies, who had already been planted in this world, to find the exact location of the chosen one, he was about to...
The sky above them suddenly darkened for some reason.
Before anyone knew it, the sky had become covered with dark clouds.
A terrifying divine might, powerful enough to make heaven and earth tremble, emanated from the dark tribulation clouds.
The dark purple lightning, raging and filled with destructive energy, surged wildly in the clouds, as if it would crash down at any moment.
Seeing this, Wang Yuanjie's chubby face, which had been so confident of winning, suddenly turned ugly.
He never expected that he would encounter a tribulation of lightning as soon as he entered the world.
The question is, why is there a lightning tribulation?!
This is completely illogical?
They had just been teleported in through the sect's most stable interdimensional teleportation array.
This situation would go completely unnoticed by the world's consciousness, making it a perfect example of illegal immigration.
Moreover, they did nothing to violate the rules of this world, so why would they attract a lightning tribulation?
Just as Wang Yuanjie was carefully recalling where he had violated the rules...
Of the four elders, Elder Long, who appeared to be of ethereal and otherworldly bearing, stroked his flowing beard and spoke with unwavering confidence:
"Holy Son, please rest assured."
"Judging from its aura, this tribulation lightning should be a naturally occurring heavenly tribulation, and it's not aimed at us."
"We only need to leave this area temporarily; there's no need to worry about this tribulation."
As the elder spoke, he gave the four a confident smile that said, "Everything is under control."
He raised his hand and waved it, and a gentle spatial force enveloped Wang Yuanjie, causing him to undergo a spatial displacement.
The other three elders also used spatial displacement to follow closely behind.
The next moment, the five figures vanished from their original spot.
When it reappeared, it was thousands of miles away, on a vast plain under a clear blue sky.
Looking at the azure sky and white clouds, Elder Long's expression became even more smug, as if to say, "Just as I expected."
Wang Yuanjie also saw the clear sky.
But just as he was about to praise Elder Long for his foresight and extensive knowledge, he realized that he was about to speak.
In the sky, which had been clear and sunny, a dark purple lightning bolt, as thick as a bucket and filled with destructive energy, suddenly appeared without warning.
"Sizzle—!"
The lightning tribulation fell straight down from the heavens, striking Elder Long with perfect accuracy.
Elder Long, who had just been wearing a smug smile, froze instantly.
