Chapter 222 Lightning Tribulation
Xiao Changkong and Ye Xinghe also rushed over, surrounding Shen Rugo and calling her "Little Junior Sister" repeatedly.
"You three little rascals, hurry up and bring Qiu Shui over here too, so he can see the progress of his Golden Core tribulation and help him break through to the Golden Core realm!"
The Starry Sky Daoist gave a rebuke.
Xiao Changkong immediately agreed and rushed towards Qiushui Peak.
It had become a habit for him, the senior brother, to take care of the junior brother.
He was the one who always brought Xiao Qiushui with him.
"Qiushui, you must watch carefully how your third senior brother overcomes this tribulation of lightning and learn from his experience!"
Seeing Xiao Qiushui being brought over with a mournful face, Daoist Xingchen frowned and reprimanded her.
Before Shen Rugo arrived, Xiao Qiushui was the youngest, and everyone doted on her.
Before Xingchen Daoren could finish speaking, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck Haoran Peak amidst the dark clouds and thunder.
Shen Rugo couldn't help but let out a soft cry.
Because at the summit of Haoran Peak, in mid-air, sat a person sitting cross-legged, dressed in blue with long flowing hair, it was Lu Haoran.
The lightning bolt struck Lu Haoran directly on the head.
A terrifying bolt of lightning, accompanied by thunder, struck Lu Haoran's body.
Sparks flew from Lu Haoran's body instantly.
"Junior Sister, don't be afraid. Third Brother is very strong. This first bolt of lightning can't harm him at all!"
Chen Tianba stroked Shen Rugo's two little tufts of hair to comfort her.
"Fourth Senior Brother, don't touch my little ponytail! I worked so hard to tie it up!"
Shen Rugo shook her head in protest!
However, her eyes were fixed on Lu Haoran.
As expected, Lu Haoran's health quickly returned to normal.
Then a second bolt of lightning struck.
Lu Haoran remained seated cross-legged, letting the terrifying lightning strike his body.
"Fourth Senior Brother, is Third Senior Brother using the power of lightning to temper his body?"
Shen Rugo asked.
"You're a smart kid, you figured it out right away!"
Before Chen Tianba could answer, a flattering voice rang out.
It belonged to none other than the Star Daoist.
"Old man, my junior sister asked me, not you trying to be presumptuous!"
Chen Tianba couldn't help but retort.
Even Xiao Changkong and Ye Xinghe glanced at Xingchen Daoren and curled their lips.
When did my master become a simp?
"What kind of attitude is this, you brats? Do you think I haven't praised you enough?"
Master Xingchen was furious.
He had no idea that for the past ten days or so, he had been by Shen Rugo's side, constantly amazed by her, and incessantly flattering her, becoming a complete sycophant and bootlicker, to the point that flattering words would slip out of his mouth without his noticing.
"Hahaha, Your Highness, your flattery master has truly become your professional sycophant!"
At this moment, Zhao Cai burst into laughter.
Zhao Cai also sensed the aura of Lu Haoran undergoing his tribulation and asked Shen Rugo to release it so it could observe him properly.
He was standing on Shen Rugo's shoulder at that moment.
Soon, another bolt of lightning struck.
Lu Haoran remained still.
And so it cleaved eighteen times in a row.
Although he caught everything steadily, Lu Haoran's flowing long hair was eventually split into curls, and his blue clothes were no longer pure blue, but mixed with gray and black.
The nineteenth lightning bolt struck down in the blink of an eye.
However, it was visibly that the power of this nineteenth lightning tribulation had increased several times.
It seemed as if the entire Haoran Peak would be blasted apart by that bolt of lightning.
At this, Shen Rugo couldn't help but shout, and even Xiao Qiushui shouted along with her, "Third Senior Brother, hide quickly!"
To everyone's surprise, Lu Haoran remained seated cross-legged. Instead of dodging, he drew his long sword and slashed at the lightning in the sky.
boom!
The longsword struck the lightning bolt, producing a deafening roar.
Lightning flashed across the sky, and even Lu Haoran's longsword danced wildly like a silver snake.
However, amidst the violent roar, Lu Haoran caught the lightning bolt again.
However, before the lightning had finished striking, another bolt struck down, this one even stronger than the first.
Lu Haoran remained seated cross-legged and slashed out with his sword.
And so, bolts of lightning struck down one after another, and Lu Haoran countered with sword strike after sword strike.
In the blink of an eye, the nine bolts of lightning ceased.
When the nine bolts of lightning ended, everyone burst into laughter. Lu Haoran's flowing long hair had completely disappeared, leaving him bald.
His once fair face was now covered in patches of black and purple, and his blue robe was tattered and barely covered his body.
"Hahaha, the third brother has really embarrassed himself now, they've seen everything!"
Chen Tianba couldn't help but burst into laughter.
With that loud laugh, Lu Haoran, who was sitting cross-legged, felt his face burning and quickly took out a long robe from his storage bag and put it on.
However, the robe was still blue.
He wouldn't have cared in the past.
After all, they are all men.
Things are different now. There's a junior sister, and what's more, she's still a child.
"Third Senior Brother successfully transcended his tribulation?"
Shen Rugo looked up at the sky in confusion.
The cloud of calamity above Lu Haoran's head had not yet dissipated; it was still churning and rolling.
"How could this be the end? There's something even more amazing coming!"
But I never expected that the third brother would be struck by twenty-seven bolts of lightning as soon as he broke through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm!
Chen Tianba began to explain.
"Is it true that the more lightning power a tribulation involves, the better?"
Shen Rugo quickly asked.
Everyone has to go through some kind of ordeal eventually, so we need to learn this knowledge first.
"Of course!"
"At the Golden Core stage, how many bolts of lightning are typically generated?"
"Normally there are nine bolts of lightning, and at most eighteen!"
"At most eighteen?"
Third Senior Brother has already suffered twenty-seven lightning strikes, and the tribulation lightning above his head hasn't dissipated yet. If each strike is nine, wouldn't Third Senior Brother suffer thirty-six strikes, far exceeding four times the normal number?
Shen Rugo couldn't help but scream.
"Of course. If these brats don't surpass the average person's tribulation by several times, can they still be considered my disciples, or even disciples of our Starry Sky Path?"
Before Chen Tianba could answer, Xingchen Daoren's arrogant voice rang out again.
Master's showing off!
He's showing off again!
Everyone frowned.
Xiao Changkong and his companions knew their master's character better than anyone else.
"Master is right, my senior brothers are the most powerful!"
Shen Rugo couldn't help but offer a casual compliment.
Suddenly, a loud cracking thunderclap rang out, and before everyone's eyes, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket struck down towards Lu Haoran.
This sudden turn of events startled everyone.
After all, those lightning bolts were only as thick as a wrist.
This lightning bolt is far more powerful than the previous one, perhaps ten times or even a hundred times stronger.
"Third Senior Brother, hide quickly!"
Shen Rugo couldn't help but shout.
