Boom!
The blue thunder and lightning surged like a tidal wave. It enveloped my whole body.
The familiar tingling sensation of sharp needles emerged again.
"Master Shu, you answered the call too quickly!"
I screamed helplessly in my heart, but I could only try my best to face this second thunder bombardment.
Although it seems that the lightning pillar struck this time is only half as thick as the first time, its power should not be underestimated! And I am in a very weak state now...
Under the thunder bombardment, I felt as if my body and soul were about to be torn apart.
"Master Shu? Master Shu! Hurry up and use your ability to treat me."
I screamed in my heart.
However there was no response.
"Master Shu, you answered the call very quickly just now, but why were you silent again at the critical moment?"
I was speechless for a while.
It is very likely that the green life energy will only be given after the stage after the thunder bombardment. But there will be a problem - if the descendants of the Wu family cannot withstand the thunder bombardment at all, they will be killed on the spot. The soul is gone, the body is dead and the soul is gone.
Is it no longer possible?
"No wonder Wujiacun has not produced many cultivators at all! Could it be that the "Thunder Tribulation" caused by the two ancestors Wu Shi and Wu Yuan is too abnormal, but after the descendants of the Wu family who have embarked on the path of cultivation try it They were all hacked to death..."
In the midst of severe pain, I couldn't help but silently "slander" a few words about my ancestors.
But maybe it's because I'm a little more accustomed to the feeling of being "struck by lightning" than the first time, and my body and soul have some "thunder" aura. I actually managed to hold on again.
In the severe pain of the thunder and lightning bombardment, my brain was not completely in a trance, and I could even think.
"That's right! Since part of the thunder and lightning just now went towards the Star Blade, it is equivalent to unintentionally forming the same effect as [Thunder Fire Sword Refining]. Then I should be able to actively guide the thunder to the Star Blade. Help me share part of the power of the thunder, and I can refine the star blade again. Kill two birds with one stone!"
Thinking of this, I endured the severe pain and inserted the star blade in my hand into the soil on the ground.
Sizzle, crackle, crackle!
A jumping and twisted blue electric arc immediately wrapped around like a python, bombarding and flashing crazily on the star blade. The soil on the surrounding ground was scorched black by the electric arc, and the air seemed to be penetrated, making bursts of fire and explosions. .
Thunder and fire intertwined on the star blade.
And I also feel that the power of lightning on my body seems to have decreased a lot...
"Sure enough! It really works!"
My heart was filled with ecstasy.
But even so, the remaining power of thunder and lightning is enough for me to drink a pot! It was still very painful and required a lot of willpower to persevere.
…
In this case, people's perception of time will become dull by relying purely on willpower.
I don't know how long it took - it seemed like a second, and it seemed like a century!
The thunder and lightning finally disappeared.
My whole body was charred, with green smoke and a burning smell, and I fell straight backwards towards the ground - but I didn't fall on the cold ground. Instead, he was caught by something soft from behind.
It seems like...a bed made of a bunch of entangled tree roots, branches and leaves?
Then soon, strands of green life energy dropped from the branches and leaves of the big banyan tree, wrapping me up and quickly repairing the terrible injuries on my body.
Just like before, I felt cool and refreshed at first, then numb and itchy, and finally all the pain disappeared. My body twisted hard, making a "click-click" sound like dry soil cracking.
Poof!
I sat up, leaving another black "shell" behind me.
Now there are two weird human-shaped "shells" of this kind, which look very weird when placed on the ground.
I stood up and felt the changes in myself carefully.
really!
The body and soul have become stronger than before. The Dantian acupoint continued to expand in a circle. The red pine spiritual energy in Niwan Palace is even more pure, which must be more beneficial to the cultivation of [Lei Qi Yuanlu].
What's more important is the Star Blade!
It was stuck in the ground in front of me, shaking slightly, thunder and lightning crackling around it. As the sword trembled and hummed, blue electric light circulated on the silver blade.
The power of thunder attached to the Star Blade is stronger than before!
The sword body is also smoother and stronger, and is vaguely evolving towards "smooth as a mirror".
"Being struck by lightning is too dangerous, but the benefits are also great!"
I was filled with emotion.
Of course, for human practitioners, not all being struck by lightning has this benefit.
After all, it is very likely that this was something "made out of nothing" by the two ancestors of the Wu family, deliberately creating "thunder tribulation" for human practitioners who did not have "thunder tribulation".
There must be many complex and exquisite designs and details, as well as places that require the cooperation of the thousand-year-old banyan tree... it is by no means a simple matter.
I looked at the Star Blade and felt its changes. Even when the owner is connected to the magical instrument, it seems to be cheering for its own changes. I suddenly became proud, hooked my index finger lightly, and said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, here comes the sword!"
Almost at the same time, an old and hoarse voice sounded in my mind.
"Okay, okay, come again!"
I:"???"
The next moment, there was another thunderbolt in the sky! Hitting the canopy-like tree crown.
"What the hell am I doing? Master Shu can't play like this. Didn't I say anything more this time?"
I screamed, but there was nothing I could do.
The "Thunder Tribulation" trial of the big banyan tree has begun again.
But fortunately, I have mastered the technique of letting the Star Blade "share" the burden for me.
A magical weapon is meant to share joys and sorrows with its master...
…
…
I don’t know how long it took, but my whole body was once again exuding a weird and unpleasant smell mixed with the smell of burnt meat and meat, and I fell down half dead.
Then, in a trance, he was healed by the life energy of the big banyan tree and returned to normal.
Now, I didn’t dare to be excited or ecstatic anymore, and I was crying with a sad face.
"Three times, three times in a row! Master Shu, I don't want to play anymore. I really can't hold on anymore."
It’s not that I’m too cowardly.
I really have a premonition that if I do it again...I'm afraid I will really be blown away by the thunder!
Although every "Thunder Tribulation" makes me stronger, it takes time to adjust my breath and recuperate. How can it be so seamless over and over again?
It has indeed reached its limit.
Silent, the big banyan tree did not respond.
Lightning and thunder were still thundering in the sky, and rain was still pouring outside the canopy, but where I stood it was extremely quiet.
A minute passed.
This "Tree Master" neither responded to me, nor did it attract the thunder from the sky. It struck me as well.
"what happened?"
I frowned slightly.
I really can’t figure out the temper of this “Tree Master”.
But it was not easy to just turn around and leave, so we could only stay silent and wait.
After another minute, the eyes of the "old man's face" on the tree root in front of him suddenly split open up and down, just like a person opening his eyes. At the same time, the old and hoarse voice sounded in my mind again.
"You are very good. As expected, a descendant of the Wu family. I am also tired. If there is a chance, see you again..."
"Wait a minute, Master Shu! You must be seriously injured, right? How can I make you fully recover?"
I said quickly and anxiously.
I have probably guessed that the big banyan tree may have been severely injured for some reason. Has been in a state of slumber for a long time.
Although... as a thousand-year-old plant essence, it itself has incredibly powerful life energy. There is no way to cure myself, and I certainly won’t be able to do anything about it for the time being.
However, I also want to know the reason and have a direction to work towards!
However, the big banyan tree didn't answer me. The eyes of the "old man's face" on the tree roots closed again, and even clicked back into the trunk. The trunk closed and disappeared.
The big banyan tree fell into silence again.
