Chapter 245 : Chapter 245
Chapter 245: Successfully Undergoing Tribulation, Crisis Descends!
【You quickly fused the fragment in your hand into the Xuanhuang Shield before you.】
【All at once, the Xuanhuang Shield, which had just been covered in cracks, began recovering to its original state at an extremely fast speed.】
【“It really works!!!”】
【Seeing this, you were so excited that you almost could not speak.】
【Just now, when the Xuanhuang Shield had been on the verge of shattering, you had suddenly thought of the Xuanhuang Shield Fragment you obtained in the previous simulation.】
【You remembered very clearly that two Xuanhuang Shield Fragments could be combined into one complete Xuanhuang Shield.】
【You suddenly wondered whether fusing one Xuanhuang Shield Fragment into this nearly broken Xuanhuang Shield could restore the damaged shield to its original state.】
【After thinking of this possibility, you decided to give it a try. In the end, it truly succeeded.】
【“I admit there was an element of gambling in this, but! I bet correctly!”】
【The corners of your mouth could not help rising slightly.】
【At this moment, you could clearly sense that the power of the Chaos Lightning Tribulation was slowly weakening. Although the speed was very slow, this was a good thing for you.】
【The restored Xuanhuang Shield tenaciously helped you withstand the Chaos Divine Lightning.】
【You discovered that the ninth bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning lasted longer than all the previous bolts of Chaos Divine Lightning combined.】
【CRACK—】
【Not long afterward, you discovered that a fine crack had appeared on the surface of the Xuanhuang Shield again.】
【“Is it no longer enough...”】
【You knew that relying on a single Xuanhuang Shield to survive the Lightning Tribulation was completely impossible, even after using it twice.】
【CRACK, CRACK, CRACK—】
【BANG—】
【After a long while, the Xuanhuang Shield could no longer hold on. It turned into specks of starlight and dissipated within the Chaos Lightning Tribulation.】
【Without the Xuanhuang Shield’s protection, the Chaos Divine Lightning descended upon your Fleshly Body in an instant.】
【You used all your trump cards and began resisting this Lightning Tribulation.】
【With the help of the Xuanhuang Shield, the current Lightning Tribulation was no longer as powerful as it had been at the beginning, and you could barely hold on for a while.】
【However, in the end, you still perished within the Chaos Divine Lightning, leaving only a faint and weakened primordial spirit behind.】
【The Tribulation Clouds above the Ancient Emperor Ruins dispersed, and the Chaos Divine Lightning vanished. You successfully survived the Ninefold Chaos Divine Lightning and forged a powerful Immortal-Demon Body.】
【In the void, you consumed the final strand of Undying Soulflame to reconstruct your Fleshly Body.】
【However, just after you finished reconstructing your Fleshly Body, an icy hand clamped tightly around your neck.】
【“Wretch! You truly have surprised this lord!”】
【The Sinister Man looked at you with a wicked smile, like a devil.】
【“Mm~”】
【“There is no mistaking this aura. It is the True Dragon Treasure Body~”】
【Seeing the Sinister Man open his bloody maw, you knew you could not simply wait for death.】
【If you were eaten until you were on the verge of death, then even if Protection of the Heavenly Dao was triggered, it would be meaningless.】
【In an instant, you used all your trump cards.】
【However, these moves were completely useless before the Sinister Man, until you used Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect · Sword Domain Descends.】
【When you used Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect · Sword Domain Descends and condensed the Sword Emperor Phantom behind you, you barely managed to break free from the Sinister Man’s hands.】
【Of course, the main reason you were able to break free from an eldritch being in the Immortal Lord Realm was because the Sinister Man briefly froze when he saw the Sword Emperor Phantom behind you.】
【It was only while the Sinister Man was dazed that you gained the chance to break free.】
【After the Sinister Man came back to his senses, he looked at Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect · Sword Domain Descends before him and lightly snapped his fingers. Your Divine Power instantly collapsed, and the Sword Emperor Phantom behind you also vanished.】
【At the same time, an unknown force acted upon your body and smashed you heavily into the ground.】
【“Pfft!”】
【Blood poured continuously from your mouth. The bones throughout your entire body had already shattered. You wanted to move, but you discovered that you could not move at all.】
【At this moment, pain occupied every part of your body, and you could not help roaring from your mouth.】
【Ding!】
【A fatal crisis has been detected!】
【Emergency activation of Unique Skill—Protection of Destiny!】
【Protection of Destiny: Forcibly preserves a trace of vitality and teleports you to a random safe location!】
【WHOOSH—】
【In the next second, you disappeared from the Sinister Man’s sight.】
【After the Sinister Man saw you vanish without a trace, the expression on his face first fell into confusion, then turned to fury.】
【The Sinister Man erupted with his Immortal Lord aura, spreading it outward with himself as the center, wanting to find your aura.】
【After a long while, the Sinister Man roared toward the sky in anger.】
【The Sinister Man discovered that your figure had completely disappeared, and that you had not used some concealed Divine Power.】
...
【On the other side, you were lying in a deserted small courtyard.】
【You did not know where you had been teleported. You only knew that you were lying in a small courtyard, and there was no one inside the house.】
【You looked around and discovered that this place was covered in traces of time. Clearly, no one had lived here for a very long time.】
【You moved your body slightly, and pain instantly spread throughout your entire body.】
【Helpless, you could only lie quietly on the ground and wait for the True Dragon Treasure Body to slowly recover.】
【Just like that, you lay on the ground for seven entire days.】
【Seven days later!】
【You slowly stood up. Although your body had not fully recovered at this moment, it no longer affected your normal movement.】
【The first thing you did was begin investigating where you were.】
【At dusk!】
【You returned to your small courtyard, your eyes filled with shock.】
【“Heavenly Emperor... City!”】
【You had not expected that this time, the place you arrived at was still the Lower City of Heavenly Emperor City. It was just a different location within the Lower City.】
【This phenomenon left you completely puzzled.】
【Logically speaking, Qingxuan Realm was so vast, yet the two times you had used Protection of Destiny, it had actually caused you to appear in the same place.】
【In your view, this was far too abnormal.】
【“Randomly teleports me to a safe place...”】
【You kept murmuring the description of Protection of Destiny.】
【“Could Heavenly Emperor City be the only safe place in the current Qingxuan Realm?”】
【“No!”】
【Knowing the truth, you were very clear that Heavenly Emperor City was the most dangerous place in Qingxuan Realm.】
【You quickly thought of something else. In the eyes of those ordinary people, Heavenly Emperor City was the safest place in Qingxuan Realm.】
【After an unknown amount of time, you shook your head and stopped thinking about it.】
【As long as you were not teleported to the Upper City of Heavenly Emperor City, none of this mattered.】
【Year Twelve!】
【Your injuries had completely recovered. You prepared to head to the Bai Family Ruins to search for Xuanyuan Tianji and Chen Shu. Moreover, in this Lower City, you spent every day on edge, afraid that you would expose yourself.】
【You used the Great Void Technique, entered the Void Gate, and disappeared from the small courtyard.】
【After leaving Heavenly Emperor City, you swiftly advanced toward the Bai Family Ruins.】
【One month later!】
【You arrived at the Bai Family Ruins.】
【“This way!”】
