Chapter 1259: Attracting Thunder Tribulation
The figure in the gray haze did not go down.
However, under his control, the tower's ability to extract spiritual energy became significantly stronger.
The most obvious example is the presence of the Flame Spider Clan and Crocodile Clan below.
The remaining cultivators from both races have now ceased fighting.
He watched in horror as the spiritual energy within his body rapidly decreased at an uncontrollable rate.
A portion of it was silently absorbed by the Spirit Suppressing Tower.
The other part was clearly sucked into Ning Ruan's body the moment it left the body.
boom--
A vortex of spiritual energy suddenly appeared in mid-air.
Under the frenzied suction, it was as if the Milky Way had reversed its course.
They surged towards Ning Ruan all at once—
Inside the Crimson Lotus Space, Ning Ruan swallowed the last bite of the spiritual fruit and couldn't help but let out a soft "Eh."
She had no idea what the other person had done.
But what is certain is that it seems to have had the opposite effect.
Especially seeing the dense spiritual energy surging in from the outside, almost solidifying, she became even more certain of this.
"Damn it! Ning Ruan, what exactly did you do?"
The figure in the gray haze couldn't hide his loss of composure and suddenly shouted.
"Don't you dare accuse me of something wrong! What does this have to do with me?"
The spiritual energy was simply too strong. Even if Ning Ruan did nothing but stand there, countless streams of spiritual energy still flowed into her body.
Her cultivation barrier, which was already on the verge of a breakthrough, began to tremble violently under the impact of this powerful spiritual energy.
"Tsk, looks like things are about to go too far."
If I really break through at this time, I wonder who will be able to withstand the lightning tribulation striking the immortal artifact?
Ning Ruan was not alarmed at all. Instead, she touched her chin with interest, a hint of eagerness flashing in her eyes.
She even voluntarily released the suppression of her cultivation level.
He let the immense spiritual power surge and collide within his body.
The moment Ning Ruan completely released the suppression of her cultivation, the world outside the Spirit Suppression Tower changed color.
The previously dark sky was suddenly shrouded in thick, dark clouds.
Amidst the churning thunderclouds, blinding lightning danced like silver snakes, accompanied by deafening roars.
A chilling divine might descended, pressing down as if it were a tangible force.
"This...this is a lightning tribulation?!"
On the battlefield, the battle between the Flame Spider Clan and the Crocodile Clan continues.
The former would certainly prefer a temporary truce.
But would the crocodile tribe cooperate with them?
If they don't fight now, and wait for the Flame Spider Clan cultivators to emerge from the tower, the Crocodile Clan will still face annihilation.
Since we're going to die anyway, why not take action now?
Until the thunderclouds suddenly appeared, all the cultivators from both races looked up in the same direction.
Even the powerful members of both races were not exempt.
Yan Jiang's face was cold and grim, and she gritted her teeth, "It's him again. What exactly does he want?"
"...No, judging from Lei Yun's condition, it shouldn't be him; it must be someone else who broke through."
Another Void Realm expert shook his head.
Chi Jiang still sneered, "Even if it wasn't him who broke through, it must be related to him!"
After saying that, he didn't say anything more.
They headed straight towards the direction of the lightning tribulation...
The crocodile clan was curious about who had broken through.
But with the two races at war, they couldn't spare the time to pay attention to anything else.
However, in the face of a desperate battle, any unforeseen events seem insignificant.
Chi Jiang moved like lightning, and in a few flashes, she had already approached the edge of the lightning tribulation range.
There was no figure ahead of him as he had imagined.
Only the tower that the other party never parted with was quietly floating in mid-air.
It exudes the unique aura of a celestial artifact.
"Fellow Daoist, please come out and meet me!"
Chi Jiang suppressed her anger.
However, no one inside the tower responded to him.
The figure in the gray haze had no time to care about others.
The spiritual power that the Spirit Suppressing Tower had accumulated for so long was forcibly absorbed by Ning Ruan's immortal artifact in just a short time.
If this continues, he's not sure if the Spirit Suppressing Tower will be drained dry.
What terrified him even more was that Ning Ruan... actually wanted to directly trigger the lightning tribulation inside the tower!
She's only just broken through to the tenth realm, so why is she facing a tribulation of lightning?!
"Ning Ruan! If you return your spiritual power now, I can release you immediately. You can then break through your limits without my interference."
"Give it back? Are you stupid or am I stupid?"
Ning Ruan laughed without any politeness, "What's in my pocket isn't going to come back."
Instead of stopping, she activated the Crimson Lotus Immortal Artifact, accelerating the absorption process.
The spiritual energy within the Spirit Suppression Tower surged into the Crimson Lotus Space like a flood bursting its banks.
And the consequence is...
Ning Ruan's spiritual power had reached its limit.
boom--
Outside the Zhenling Pagoda.
The first bolt of lightning, which had been accumulating for a long time, finally tore through the thunderclouds and struck down fiercely!
Thick, dragon-like purple lightning, carrying a world-destroying force, struck the top of the Spirit Suppression Tower with pinpoint accuracy.
The tower shook violently, and a dark red light flickered wildly.
The cultivators at the bottom of the tower were shaken so badly they staggered and could hardly keep their balance.
Those who were already injured were directly shocked and coughed up blood.
At that very moment, Ning Ruan immediately retracted her invisibility cloak.
Let the red lotus be revealed to the world.
Although the tower withstood most of the lightning tribulation, the portion that did penetrate was still incredibly powerful.
Honglian had no choice but to tough it out.
However, it's best to avoid damaging the fairy clothes if possible.
The gray figure, who had finally seen the true face of the immortal artifact, could not smile at all.
He gritted his teeth and looked at the red lotus, watching as countless streams of spiritual energy poured into it, but he was powerless to stop it.
“Ning Ruan, although the lightning tribulation is powerful, it also has the benefit of tempering the body. If you don’t come out, even if you successfully break through to the next realm, it will inevitably affect your cultivation.”
"Oh, it doesn't matter, there's always a way to fix it. I just don't know if your tower can be repaired if it gets damaged by a lightning strike?"
As soon as Ning Ruan finished speaking, the gray-haired figure was so choked that his blood surged.
I knew so...
If he had known this would happen... he shouldn't have coveted the immortal artifact in Ning Ruan's possession.
I originally thought that with the Spirit Suppressing Tower there, everything would be extremely safe.
But who could have imagined that something like this could happen?
How could it be such a coincidence?
How could he even encounter something as simple as a breakthrough?
"boom--!!!"
The second bolt of lightning followed immediately, its deep purple light illuminating the entire interior of the Spirit Suppression Tower in a ghastly white light.
As the object of special attention, the Crimson Lotus Immortal Artifact was completely enveloped in lightning.
The power of thunder, mixed with the absorbed spiritual energy, surged inwards like a tide...
