"Boom!"
In the astonished gaze of all the cultivators.
Lu Yuan soared into the sky, facing the boundless sea of thunder.
And that sea of thunder, as if enraged, immediately condensed nine thunderbolts as thick as water barrels, striking down at him head-on.
"Good timing."
Instead of being angry, Lu Yuan was delighted.
The Thunder Tribulation represented the majesty of heaven and earth, and was also the manifestation of the Power of Laws.
Under normal circumstances, only when a Nascent Soul strong person attempts to break through by controlling the Power of Heaven and Earth Laws would they attract a trace of Thunder Tribulation.
However, the Fourth-Turned Formless Gu, after enduring the baptism of Thunder Tribulation, could become an unparalleled Spirit Gu!
"Crack!"
The thunderbolts cascaded down from the sky, crashing towards Lu Yuan and that light mass.
A brilliant divine light emerged from the surface of the light mass, forming a barrier that protected it, forcibly withstanding all the Thunder Tribulation.
Arcs of electricity splashed around, and thunder rumbled.
Yet the light mass absorbed all the Power of Thunder Tribulation like a whale swallowing a cow!
Ten!
Forty!
Forty-eight!
"Only the last Thunder Tribulation remains."
Lu Yuan looked solemn, raising his head to look at the sky.
The vast sea of thunder slowly rotated, gradually forming a vortex of thunderclouds, and at the vortex’s center, all energy gathered, forming an unprecedentedly terrifying Thunder Tribulation.
"Crack!"
A bolt of lightning spanned across the void, cleaving down from the sky, causing the entire world to fall silent!
Even before the Thunder Tribulation arrived, a vast oppressive force spread out, making all the cultivators standing afar feel their scalp tingle and a sense of sheer terror!
"What exactly is Lu Yuan doing? I’m afraid even a Nascent Soul strong person’s Thunder Tribulation wouldn’t be this terrifying, right?"
All the cultivators were dumbfounded and even their bodies were faintly trembling.
"I wonder if the Formless Gu can withstand this strike."
Seeing this terrifying power, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but feel a bit worried.
Though the Formless Gu had reached the Fourth Transformation, it had no combat power and might not endure this final Thunder Tribulation.
But after a moment, Lu Yuan realized his worries were unnecessary.
The endless Thunder Tribulation faded away, while the light mass became more substantial, crystalline and transparent, like a clear, translucent rhombus crystal!
The crystal glowed with an ethereal light, dreamlike and illusory, with numerous faces emerging.
Each face represented an identity!
"The Fourth-Turned Formless Gu has finally succeeded!"
Lu Yuan exhaled a long breath of relief, feeling the weight lifted off his heart.
Although the Formless Gu didn’t augment combat strength, it could help Lu Yuan change his appearance, conceal his aura and power, making even a Nascent Soul strong person unable to see through his disguise!
With this Gu, Lu Yuan no longer needed to worry about identity exposure or related issues.
From now on.
The vast sea and endless sky are yours to roam.
The world is vast, and there’s nowhere you can’t go!
"With this Gu, I no longer need to be so cautious in my actions; I can also try to approach the demon cultivators’ side."
Lu Yuan’s eyes flickered as he stored the Formless Gu in his dantian, then transformed into a stream of light, vanishing from the sight of everyone in an instant.
Half a day later.
In a dimly lit cave, a demon cultivator awoke from unconsciousness with a splitting headache.
"Where is this?"
Gao Qi held his head where a large bump had formed, looking around the environment in confusion.
He remembered his group was hiding in the shadows, setting up an array, when suddenly they were knocked out from behind?
To worsen Gao Qi’s situation, he found his limbs bound and his cultivation completely sealed, making him vulnerable to any wild beast or even a stone-tool-wielding mortal!
"You’re from the Celestial Demon Sect."
It was at this moment that a deep and resonant voice came from behind him.
Gao Qi turned back to see a burly, nondescript short-haired young man standing in the shadows.
The youth’s features were indistinct, save for a pair of deep, bright eyes like stars, exerting a strong oppressive aura!
"You’re joking. We, the Qingfeng Temple, are a Renowned and Righteous Sect. How could we possibly associate with those inhuman demon cultivators?"
Gao Qi forced a smile, though his heart sank.
From the young man’s assertive tone, it was clear he knew him inside out and probably was aware of his background!
But as soon as Gao Qi thought of this, he shook his head, denying this speculation.
Their Celestial Demon Sect’s Qi Concealing Secret Technique could even deceive many Nascent Soul strong persons, how could it be easily exposed?
Moreover, all the major sects regarded demon cultivators as mortal enemies. If their presence was detected, they would undoubtedly be destroyed immediately without leaving any future trouble.
If the young man were truly from a Renowned and Righteous Sect, how could he keep him until now?
"Could this person also be a demonic cultivator, or perhaps some sect’s prodigy who stumbled upon the truth of the world’s parasites?"
Gao Qi racked his brains, surmising numerous possibilities.
Though he didn’t know the man’s identity, one thing was certain: the man had captured him alive for a reason.
This implied Gao Qi still held value to the young man; otherwise, the latter wouldn’t waste words on him.
"Your demonic cultivation techniques are flawed. If pursued to the end, not only would you fail against the Parasite Insect Race, but it would also bring endless harm."
Lu Yuan spoke lightly.
Upon hearing this, Gao Qi’s expression changed drastically, his emotions extremely agitated, struggling to stand up from the ground.
But his hands and feet were bound, and no matter how hard he tried, he could only roll on the ground.
"Who are you really, and why do you know the affairs of our Demon Sect?"
Gao Qi’s expression was astonished, as waves of shock surged in his heart.
