Chapter 285: Wind and Lightning Tribulation
In the sky, a large magic circle appeared, within it were Wang Lie and his warriors, all staring at the magic circle in the sky.
However, there was no longer the arrogance on their faces, only endless despair and deep fear remained.
When Lin Yan gestured with his finger, countless spiritual swords descended from the magic circle like hail, fiercely piercing the reinforcement soldiers.
Several soldiers emitted agonizing screams as they felt the pain of the swords piercing their bodies. After the screams, it could be seen that the soldiers were filled with spiritual swords, with countless sword marks puncturing them.
"Ahhhh!"
The screams were accompanied by the smell of blood in the air. Meanwhile, Wang Lie hid inside the magic circle, trying to avoid the spiritual swords falling from the sky.
Lin Yan smiled slightly upon seeing this, then pointed downward, accelerating the speed of descent of the spiritual swords within the magic circle.
Feeling the spiritual swords descending faster, the fear on Wang Lie's face intensified. He cursed in his heart, "This ruthless butcher really wants to annihilate us completely!"
As the spiritual swords descended faster than Wang Lie expected, all the warriors inside the magic circle fell one after another. From arrogant and haughty, they turned into cold, lifeless corpses.
Lin Dong and Xiao Yan watched the scene incredulously. After a moment, Lin Dong spoke hesitantly, "This... this magic circle is too terrifying... If we were in their place, we probably couldn't hold on for long before being pierced alive..."
Meanwhile, Wang Lie, who was constantly dodging, realized that no matter how much he resisted, the spiritual swords kept falling from the sky like an endless storm.
After dodging for a long time, his body was exhausted. Finally, in a moment of carelessness, a sword struck him and pierced through.
At that moment, Wang Lie fell to his knees, looking at his pierced body, and let out a heart-wrenching cry of despair.
Lin Yan, seeing this, dissipated the magic circle and then advanced towards Wang Lie. A slight smile appeared on his face when he saw the fear in Wang Lie's eyes.
"Please, please don't kill me! If you spare me, I'll give you all my Nirvana pills and martial techniques!" Wang Lie pleaded fearfully as Lin Yan approached.
Lin Yan smiled faintly at his plea, "What difference does it make whether I kill you or not?"
Before Wang Lie could react, Lin Yan extended his left hand and pierced Wang Lie's chest with a blow. Wang Lie screamed in pain as agony spread across his face, and when Lin Yan withdrew his hand from his chest, Wang Lie fell to the ground, breathless.
This scene left everyone present feeling great fear towards Lin Yan, they even lost the courage to look him in the eye.
Lin Yan swept his gaze over Lin Dong and the others, but none dared to meet his gaze. Lin Yan didn't even bother to pay them any attention and said, "The Dan River now belongs to us."
Upon hearing this, everyone stood dumbfounded in place as Lin Yan flew towards the Dan River, and after a moment, they all followed him towards the river.
The air at the Dan River was extremely thick with Nirvana aura, making it difficult to absorb even for common folk. Although Lin Yan had the power to devour, it was still somewhat troublesome for him to absorb it.
Fortunately, Lin Yan had obtained a lot of information from Ai's skeletal remains and found out that in the Dan River, there were some cultivation platforms left behind by ancient sects, which could dilute the Nirvana aura in the Dan River and protect against harassment from Nirvana corpses.
And right in front of Lin Yan and the others, there was one of those cultivation platforms. Lin Yan took Lin Dong and Xiao Yan flying towards it.
When they stabilized on the ground, Lin Yan began to activate the protective seal on the cultivation platform, forming a solid barrier.
Suddenly, the cultivation platform began to tremble, and then a red screen rose up, forming a thick layer of light that completely obscured the cultivation sky.
With the protective seal successfully activated, Lin Yan sat on the cultivation platform with closed eyes, then activated the chaos absorption symbols, absorbing the diluted Nirvana aura.
Lin Dong and the others also sat down beside Lin Yan, and Lin Dong also activated his devourer symbol, absorbing the Nirvana aura.
Lin Yan could clearly feel that the Nirvana aura in the Dan River was much easier to absorb than Nirvana pills, and it was also more powerful.
In the center of the cultivation platform, Lin Yan and the others sat silently, surrounded by the Nirvana aura. Occasionally, blurry figures like water flow could be seen, showing the incredible intensity of the Nirvana aura.
Lin Yan had been heading towards the Five Elements Nirvana. Although the Nirvana aura in the Dan River was easy to absorb, the Five Elements Nirvana was not easy to overcome. Not only was it difficult to break through, but it also required a large amount of Nirvana aura.
However, Lin Yan was not only attacking the Five Elements Nirvana, but he had also absorbed a large amount of Nirvana aura into his mud palace. The waves emitted were extremely powerful. If this continued, it seemed that he would soon face the wind and lightning tribulation.
When his mental energy reached the level of heaven and earth divinity after becoming a Talent Master, it would provoke the wind and lightning tribulation.
Once the wind and lightning tribulation formed, the mental energy of the one undergoing the tribulation would be involuntarily absorbed, and then they would receive the baptism of wind and lightning. If they could overcome it, their mental energy would naturally become denser and more powerful.
But if they couldn't overcome it, and their mental energy was scattered by the wind and lightning, the consequences would not be easier than failing the Nirvana tribulation.
As time passed, Lin Yan and the others had been cultivating in the Dan River for two full days. During these two days, they showed no signs of any breakthrough, and had been constantly absorbing the Nirvana aura from the river.
In these two days, Lin Yan's elemental energy was on the verge of breaking through, but unfortunately, he still hadn't managed to break through the bottleneck. He was getting closer every time, but never succeeded, however, Lin Yan was not discouraged.
He continued to absorb the Nirvana aura, bringing it into the mud palace. Although he had absorbed some Nirvana aura while attempting to break through the Five Elements Nirvana, it was not enough. A large amount of Nirvana aura was needed to advance.
Lin Yan continued to absorb the Nirvana aura in the Dan River, bringing it into the mud palace. After absorbing for half a day, he began to feel signs of a breakthrough.
He immediately increased the absorption, bringing all the Nirvana aura into the mud palace. When a large amount of Nirvana aura was once again injected into the mud palace, Lin Yan clearly felt that he was about to make a breakthrough.
"Boom, boom!"
Two thunderclaps resounded in the sky, and lightning illuminated the sky. Lin Yan looked up, with a joyful expression on his face, because in the sky, the wind and thunder were in full swing, this was the omen of the wind and lightning tribulation!
