Xu Xiaolan’s actions had completely stunned An Lin.
The power of dragons was still flowing relentlessly into Xu Xiaolan’s body.
She rejected the dragon horns, but the golden color in her eyes became even more dazzling, as if the power meant for the horns was being transferred into her eyes instead.
After the power of dragons merged into Xu Xiaolan’s body, it was purified by her Holy Vermilion Flame before fusing with her True Dragon bloodline.
Her True Dragon bloodline became more and more powerful, and at the same time, her meridians, sea of vital energy, dao foundation, consciousness… Everything within her body received further enhancement.
The dragon raised its head to look up at the high and mighty Vermilion Bird.
The Vermilion Bird lowered its head and regarded the coiled dragon below as its equal for the first time.
The two bloodlines looked directly at one another.
In that instant, Xu Xiaolan’s aura suddenly transformed. One of her eyes became a holy white-like fire, while her other eye became a pure gold, from which power as boundless as the ocean erupted forth.
A golden pillar of light erupted from her body, launching straight into the clouds above, as if it were trying to pierce through the starry night sky and reach even further beyond.
Crack…
A crisp crack sounded.
It was as if a certain shackle had been broken.
An Lin turned to Xu Xiaolan as a bold speculation appeared in his mind.
Xu Xiaolan also turned to look at An Lin. Their eyes met, and An Lin could see a hint of panic intermingled with elation in her eyes. “I think… I’m going to make a breakthrough!”
An Lin: “…”
An Lin was astonished. “You’re using hacks!”
Xu Xiaolan’s cultivation base progression was simply outrageous! It had only been two or three years, and she had progressed all the way from the Soul Formation Stage to the Return to Void Stage! What a freak!
Xu Xiaolan rolled her eyes and ignored An Lin as she focused her attention on making her breakthrough.
Black clouds began to surge in the sky.
As the Lord of Transcendence, An Lin naturally chose to stand by her in order to assist her in her tribulation transcendence.
For added safety, he had even released Gundam Three and Yao Ji to stand guard around the area.
Dark clouds began to converge in the sky above.
An Lin looked up at the dark clouds and was instantly dumbstruck.
The dark clouds were like a boundless blanket of darkness to which there was no end in sight!
An Lin unleashed his divine sense to assess the area the dark clouds spanned, only to find that he was still unable to see the end even after unleashing his divine sense for several hundred kilometers!
He took a deep breath. “Holy f*ck! Just how big are these tribulation clouds?!”
One had to realize that the tribulation clouds only encompassed an area of around fifty kilometers in radius when he helped others in their tribulation transcendence.
However, Xu Xiaolan’s tribulation clouds encompassed an area that was at least several hundred kilometers in radius!
“That’s crazy… I wonder how terrifying the tribulation lightning will be…” An Lin was both elated and a little concerned at the sight of the boundless expanse of dark clouds in the sky.
The more powerful tribulation lightning was, the more difficult it would be to survive.
Among the deaths that occurred during tribulation transcendence to Return to Void Stage, the two most likely factors that resulted in it were either an unstable foundation or the tribulation transcender was overly talented!
The gods were disdainful toward weaklings but also envious toward prodigies.
Xu Xiaolan was clearly part of the latter.
It was exactly because of this that An Lin was getting very nervous.
Terrifying lightning surged within the dark clouds as Golden Void Lightning pierced through the clouds from time to time, lighting up the world with flashes of gold.
An Lin absolutely refused to let anyone encroach upon this tribulation transcendence.
He set up a simple spell formation, covering an area of a hundred and fifty kilometers in radius, around Xu Xiaolan, and the spell formation only had a sound function. Anyone that stepped into this area would be greeted by one sentence: Trespassers will die!
In order to ensure Xu Xiaolan’s safety, he was going to treat anyone who dared to approach this place as an enemy, so there was no chance of them disrupting her tribulation transcendence.
Boom!
An extremely dazzling bolt of Golden Void Lightning fell from the sky onto Xu Xiaolan’s body!
An Lin could tell that this first bolt of Golden Void Lightning was about as powerful as the thirtieth bolt of tribulation lightning normal cultivators faced…
The gods really were envious of prodigies.
Xu Xiaolan unleashed a True Dragon Wall to blunt the power of the Golden Void Lightning to an acceptable degree before guiding the lightning into her body in order to observe the Great Dao of heaven and earth and refine her body.
Normal cultivators defended themselves against tribulation lightning in order to survive. However, prodigies used their tribulation lightning as a cultivation device. Only through doing so could they master the true essence of space through their Golden Void Lightning.
Of course, at the conclusion of the tribulation transcendence, everyone would be fighting for their survival.
There were eighty-one bolts of Golden Void Lightning.
An Lin firmly believed that Xu Xiaolan would be able to survive them with no problems.
He sat close to Xu Xiaolan and looked into the distance.
The lightning clouds for this tribulation transcendence had encompassed an area several hundred kilometers in radius. It was making a massive commotion, and An Lin was quite concerned that it was going to alert other Return to Void Stage mighty figures to the scene.
“Soul Formation Stage trash could be easily taken care of, and I don’t think any Soul Formation Stage cultivator would still dare to continue onward after hearing the verbal warning imbued within my spell formation.
“However, Return to Void Stage mighty figures are going to be troublesome to deal with. Anyone would be tempted to take advantage of the situation, especially in a cruel and brutal place of slaughter like this one. It’s very much possible that someone would try to take this opportunity to kill a tribulation transcender who cannot move.
“I can take on one Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure, but if two appeared at once…”
An Lin muttered to himself, and he became more and more uneasy as he followed this train of thought.
A short while later, he shook his head to rid himself of these thoughts.
The Ancient Tai Chu Dragon Realm was massive, and Return to Void Final Stage mighty figures were quite rare. His luck should not be that bad…
At this moment, Xu Xiaolan had already successfully transcended her ninth bolt of tribulation lightning.
An Lin was suddenly alerted to something at this moment, and he turned toward a certain direction.
“There really is someone running to their death?”
An Lin discovered that his spell formation had been encroached upon, and he was very angry.
He stood up, and the boundless power of flames surged within his body as he prepared himself to unleash his Fire God Mode at a moment’s notice.
Right at this moment, a white figure began to appear in his line of sight.
An Lin’s expression faltered upon seeing that white figure.
“Mr. An Lin, help me!”
Ao Qingyu’s hair and face were all charred black, and he cried for help in an extremely sorry state.
Behind him was an ice and frost dragon in hot pursuit, and the entire heaven and earth had been transformed into a domain of extreme frost.
In another direction scorching flames raged, as if they were threatening to incinerate heaven and earth.
“Hahaha… Ao Qingyu, you’re not going anywhere!”
An extremely forceful dragon roar erupted.
“Let me, the Western Dragon Forest Sun God, Apollo, incinerate and purify you with my flames in order to further my power!”
A golden flaming dragon with an extremely fearsome aura chased after him like a small sun, lighting up the entire night with the incandescent golden light radiating from its body.
“What a coincidence, Mr. An Lin, we meet again! Same thing again, you take on one, I’ll take on the other, what do you think?” Ao Qingyu flew toward An Lin as he spoke in a hurried voice.
An Lin: “…”
Coincidence my f*cking *ss!
This b*stard must’ve done this on purpose!
He knew that An Lin was situated here and led these dragons here on purpose!
“Mr. An Lin?” Ao Qingyu let loose another urgent cry after receiving no response from An Lin.
An Lin: “F*ck off!”
