Perfect World

- Winding Path Leads to a Secluded Place

The cobblestone path led straight into an unknown hidden place.

This was a contradicting scene. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled within this Lightning Abyss. Lightning pools appeared, full of powerful destructive energy. However, the small alley was extremely serene and remote, that place extremely peaceful.

“Are we really going there?” When they approached the Lightning Abyss, they still stopped. It was going to be extremely dangerous once they proceeded.

If they ended up making contact with a lightning pool, heavenly tribulation would definitely descend. It wouldn’t matter no matter how they tried to hide their cultivation levels!

In reality, they had a feeling that once they entered, they would have to immediately face tribulation. This was definitely going to be an arduous and dangerous path.

In the end, they proceeded, going to enter!

However, when they had just approached the abyss, shocking waves crashed down. This was surging lightning.

Moreover, at this time, a creature suddenly jumped out, leaping out from the waves of lightning. It rushed towards Shenming, opening its bloody mouth.

This made her release a cry of alarm. This happened too suddenly! How could this lightning abyss have living creatures?

“A fish!”

This was a large black fish, more than ten zhang in length. Within its large bloody mouth, its white teeth were extremely sharp, flickering with cold radiance like longswords.

Ka!

Shenming avoided it. When the large mouth opened and closed, the sounds that were released covered their bodies with a layer of goosebumps.

“It is formed from lightning, it doesn’t have a true flesh body!” Sanzang said, coming to this conclusion.

However, this fish was just too lifelike, just like a real creature. It was incredibly ferocious, as if it had a spirit.

“This place isn’t simple. Don’t tell me the lightning has developed its own will?” Shi Hao’s expression was serious.

Fortunately, not long after this fish jumped out of the lightning water surface and fell back down, it scattered, turning into electricity, entering the lightning.

The cobblestone path had long been submerged under lightning again. Lightning pools were faintly discernible. The three of them advanced extremely carefully!

However, this process was also painful, the lightning around them concentrated. If they were to say that the lightning before was like rain, now, they were like blades, hacking at their bodies. There was constantly the danger of losing their lives.

Fortunately, they were powerful enough!

However, this wasn’t a solution either, because they were passively enduring, not using great magical force to resist out of fear of incurring even more powerful heavenly tribulation.

Facing it like this was fine in the beginning, but now, as the lightning entered the Lightning Abyss, the lightning radiance became stronger, power increasing. If a normal youngster entered, they would immediately be blasted to ashes.

Even their bodies were bloody.

“Hey, beauty, you’re completely exposed!” Shi Hao shouted from the back.

Under the lightning, Shenming’s long dress had a portion that was blasted apart, revealing her snow-white back. It was soft and snow-white like fine jade.

“Stop speaking nonsense, go in the front and lead the way!” Shenming turned around, her fine jade finger poking against Shi Hao’s forehead. Her sparkling face carried anger, but of course, she wasn’t truly angry.

Shi Hao and Sanzang led the way, continuing in the direction they got a hurried glance at, wishing to get onto that cobblestone path.

The sea of thunder surged, great waves reaching into the skies!

Honglong!

An expanse of waves directly flipped them over, ocean sprays endless, producing snow-white brilliance.

This really was too vivid! If someone was just passing by, they definitely would think that they were walking next to the sea, but in reality, it was all lightning, waves produced by electricity.

Shi Hao’s party were all submerged, blasted until they staggered about, hair all standing on end. As for their bodies, their clothes had long become tattered, some areas of their skin even scorched black.

Shi Hao clenched his teeth. This pain really was too great.

“If we really can’t endure it, we have to cross tribulation while advancing!” He said.

“This definitely can’t compare to the heavenly tribulations that match our own strength. Let’s endure it for a bit more for now!” Sanzang said.

A black lightning pool appeared. It was three square feet in size, flowing with terrifying energy. Dark light overflowed, every single streak terrifying. One of them landed near Shenming, immediately blasting open the void.

At the same time, she staggered, almost falling straight into the lightning pool. This made her expression change suddenly.

The lightning pool appeared abruptly!

The three of them stopped, fine hairs standing on end. It was because there was a lightning pool that also appeared, almost within reach. It was that gray-colored lightning pool, its diameter a zhang in length, rising and falling nearby.

Lightning radiance flowed about the gray stone walls, every streak containing terrifying destructive energy.

The three of them didn’t dare act rashly. Two of them suddenly appeared near them, what was the meaning of this? Were they discovered? Don’t tell me these lightning pools even had their own wills?

“It’s so fragrant!”

Shi Hao took a deep breath, feeling a bit intoxicated. One of the lightning pools was just too close, already visible. There was sparkling liquid inside that released a rich fragrance.

Lightning Tribulation Liquid!

The liquid produced from such a large pool was definitely astonishing. This was rare precious liquid.

Shi Hao really had the urge to jump into that zhang length gray-colored lightning pool, to roll around and take a bath, see if he could refine an unbreakable body inside!

Of course, he could only think about it, not daring to actually put his thoughts to action. The lightning pools were all around them, once they were disturbed, they wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences.

Sure enough, as they continued to passively endure the bombardment of the lightning, their bodies in great pain, behind them, a ten zhang diameter blood pool appeared.

In that instant, they smelled a strong bloodiness!

It was extremely unpleasant and shocking, making them feel as if they arrived at the limits of the world, seeing the scene of judgment day descending. All life shed blood, corpses piled up like mountains, blood flowing into oceans.

In a daze, it was as if they saw a blood pool appear, gathering the essence blood of heaven and earth, then it became a lightning pool.

This made their souls quiver in fear!

This lightning pool was ten zhang in diameter! Once it erupted with power, only heaven knew just how much power it would release. They reckoned even supreme beings would be blasted apart.

This left everyone feeling suffocated and oppressed. Of course, this place wasn’t stuffy at all, lightning crashing all about. The so-called muffled feeling came from a suppression of the soul.

The lightning pools appeared, blocking this place. If they really did erupt, perhaps not even their corpses would remain!

In the end, under the shadow of death, the balance was broken. The blood pool slowly left, not displaying any might.

Then, the gray lightning pool and three square feet black lightning pools also disappeared.

Shenming released a breath of relief, cold sweat about to drip down.

Hong!

Endless waves crashed down, knocking the three individuals down again, their clothes hacked to pieces.

“Hey, beauty, your bottom is exposed.” When Shi Hao crawled back up, he was just in time to see a bit of shining white. Of course, only a bit of the well developed bottom was revealed.

His words were purely because his mouth was sharp, but in this type of life and death juncture, it also alleviated the tense atmosphere a bit.

“Go to hell!”

Shenming clenched her beautiful fists. With a dong noise, they smashed down on his forehead, sending him flying.

In that instant, a fiery red long dress covered her body again.

“It’s useless, I guarantee that everything will explode later, this is purely a waste.” Shi Hao walked over.

Sanzang continued forward, careful and prudent.

Sure enough, after walking out just a few hundred zhang, they encountered the most vicious lighting tribulation, crashing down with pili pala noises, blasting the three individuals until their bodies were entirely scorched black.

However, this also made wearing clothes unnecessary. Even if they didn’t wear anything, they were almost unrecognizable.

“This fucking hurts!” Shi Hao screamed. Comparatively speaking, he was still in the Self Severing Realm, a cultivation realm lower than the two Golden Undead Knights’. However, the pressure he endured was the same.

Sanzang also released a muffed groan, body shaking intensely. The lightning tribulation was too fierce, pouring down like silver streams, crashing down on their bodies.

After coming here, it was extremely difficult to continue forward.

Just passively enduring the lightning, not retaliating, continuing like this would result in huge problems. There was a chance of them dying.

If this continued, then it was better to just resist, directly face tribulation!

“I was originally going to cross heavenly tribulation anyway, strengthen myself here. I’ll formally start in a bit!” Shi Hao said.

Honglong!

A silver rainbow flew over, striking the three of them. The three of them coughed out blood at the same time, bodies sent flying. This was a strange streak of lightning, its power tremendous.

The entire Lightning Abyss shook!

It was precisely at this time that the lightning all around them seemed to have collapsed a bit, revealing a bit of the scenery below.

“This is a good chance, we have to go now!”

They rushed downwards as fast as lightning, seeing the small cobblestone path again.

Those smooth and round stones all floated in the void, lightning covered everything around it. This was an extremely strange sight, these stones quietly floating there.

The hundreds to over a thousand rocks formed a path that led into the depths of this place.

Peng!

Shi Hao landed on a piece of stone, and then he quickly ran forward.

When Sanzang and Shenming landed, they also ran at full speed. It was because nearby, there was a hundred zhang wide mottled lightning pool that was currently shining, taking in and sending out endless lightning.

“Blood, bones!”

They discovered a set of remains up ahead with alarm. The body was half scorched black, bones cracked. There was blood on the cobblestone that hadn’t dried yet.

What era was this left behind from? Yet it was still preserved here. The lightning didn’t continue to bombard it?

“A world shocking expert! This person’s cultivation is extremely great, but in the end, they still died!” Sanzang said.

That blood was dim, lacking luster, but it was still preserved.

Honglong!

In the back, it was as if oceans roared. The boundless sea of thunder was screaming, chasing after them along this small path, great waves rushing into the heavens!

“Run!”

The lightning temporarily scattered just now, but it all came crashing down at this moment.

They sped along, following the cobblestone path, heading towards the depths of the Lightning Abyss.

“Ah, have we reached the end point?” Shenming cried out in alarm. Now, she really was butt naked, her curves wonderful, absolutely captivating, but Shi Hao wasn’t in the mood to tease her.

There was a mountain up ahead, on it carved the two words ‘Thunder Mountain’, blocking right before them.

Behind them, the sea surged, angry waves blasting the heavens, lightning rushing over murderously.

Run!

They ran as fast as they could up to Thunder Mountain, wishing to pass through. However, thunder radiance burst forth here, blasting them until their bodies were bloody.

“Go around it!”

“Ah, this is… Willow Deity?!” Shi Hao screamed out.

When he was about to move around the mountain, on the other side of the mountain, he saw an ancient golden tree rooted at the foot of the mountain, full of leaves, branches hanging like divine chains of order!

Shi Hao was shocked. He immediately recognized that it was Willow Deity, this was its aura!
