Chapter 365: Thunder Whale's Tribulation
"I admire the two of you for your great talent and hard work. Come, I'll toast you and your sister-in-law and congratulate you on your success in having a baby soon!" Wuyazi was happy for them from the bottom of his heart.
"Thank you, Brother Wu, cheers!" Liu Xing and his wife also raised their glasses to express their gratitude.
"To be honest, I came out this time with the intention of looking for Elder Hong and inviting him to go out to sea to hunt monsters. I passed by here and decided to come and see you. However, both of you have made great progress in your magic power and have gained corresponding strength. I wonder if you are interested in going with me?" Wuyazi asked.
"Since Angkor Wu has invited us, we will naturally help him. I wonder how powerful the monster is? Can't Elder Wu defeat it?" Liu Xing asked curiously.
"A few years ago, while on a mission, I stumbled upon a thunder whale in the sea about 100,000 miles from here. It was cultivating by absorbing and exhaling the power of thunder and lightning. It had reached the peak of the seventh level, the False Infant stage. I had an urgent mission to attend to at the time, so I just watched from a distance and left. I guess this beast has been preparing to advance to the eighth level these years, which is a good opportunity for us."
"Monster beasts above level eight are as intelligent and powerful as we are. They are extremely difficult to encounter, let alone hunt. Great cultivators usually can't capture them without taking action. Their demon cores can be used to refine several kinds of elixirs that are effective for us in the Nascent Soul stage. If this Thunder Whale successfully advances to level eight, it must be in a weak stage consolidating its cultivation. If it hasn't advanced, a demon core from the False Infant stage will barely suffice."
"Brother Wu wants this Thunder Whale Demon Pill. Could it be that he wants to refine the Thunder Pill?" Liu Xing asked with sudden realization. The Thunder Pill can help the Yuanying Elder comprehend the Thunder Pill technique and assist in resisting thunder disasters.
"That's right, I almost forgot that you are a master of alchemy, haha." Wuyazi laughed.
"The Thunder Whale is proficient in water and mine magic, and it is extremely fast in the sea. It is easy for me to defeat it alone, but I am not able to kill the monster and take the elixir. So, I plan to find a fellow Taoist to help me go together. After the mission is accomplished, I will only take the monster elixir, and the Thunder Whale body will belong to you. I will also compensate you with an additional one million spirit stones. Are you interested in going with me?" Wuyazi asked again. This distribution plan was reasonable. He estimated that Elder Hong would be willing to make this trip as well.
"Wu's business is my business. Let's not talk about compensation. I'll just go with you." Liu Xing agreed. They had just come out of seclusion and had nothing to do. They were so quiet that they wanted to move. It would be nice to go out and get some fresh air.
"Haha, I knew that my dear brother is the most loyal." Wuyazi was very happy to see Liu Xing agreed.
"This round trip will probably take about a month. Brother, please pack up and we will be ready to set off." Wuyazi urged when he saw that the matter was settled.
"Okay, Angkor, wait a moment."
Liu Xing and Nie Xiaoqian went into the room to pack up. They had originally used this as a temporary training ground, and the cave house contained very few items, all valuables carried with them. Therefore, packing was very quick, finishing in a short time. Then the three of them flew towards the deep sea.
The three flew at full speed for more than ten days before entering a sea of thunder. The sky here was always filled with dark clouds, with constant thunder and lightning, and it was filled with extremely strong lightning power.
"No wonder the Thunder Whale chose this place as its training ground, it is indeed very suitable for it!" Liu Xing muttered.
"My dear brother, three hundred miles ahead is where I met the thunder whale last time. Next, we must restrain our breath to prevent that guy from sensing the danger in advance and running away." Wuyazi stopped and gave the order.
"My ancient treasure, the Sky-hiding Shuttle, is not only fast, but also very effective in concealing one's aura. If you don't mind, Brother Wu, why don't you come in and sneak in with us?" Liu Xing invited.
"Then I will respectfully obey your command!" Wuyazi had already experienced the speed of the Sky-Handing Shuttle, so he naturally agreed without hesitation.
The three of them drove the Sky Shuttle, transformed into an invisible breeze, and quickly rushed towards the depths of the sea of thunder.
The thunder in the distance grew louder and louder, the deep sea waves were surging, and layers of dark clouds pressed down like an iron pot covering your head, making you feel depressed and breathless.
A massive black shadow, the size of a small mountain, roared at the dark clouds with its head held high. Its enormous tail fin slapped the sea surface, sending surging waves hundreds of feet high lashing in all directions.
"Could it be that this Thunder Whale is undergoing a thunder tribulation?" Liu Xing stopped the shuttle and said in surprise and doubt.
"It's true, God is helping me! Haha." Wuyazi laughed heartily.
"Let's not go over there now, lest we attract lightning and cause trouble. Once it successfully overcomes the tribulation and advances to level eight, it will be extremely weak. We will then take action to kill the monster." Wuyazi said cautiously.
Liu Xing had no objection. He and Nie Xiaoqian were also about to pass the tribulation, so it was a good opportunity to observe carefully, which would be of great help to their advancement.
The dark clouds in the sky grew thicker and thicker, as if brewing an extremely powerful killing move. The thunder became lower and lower, and the energy was constantly compressed and accumulated. The energy was firmly locked on the giant monster in the sea, as if it had offended the heaven, and the thunder and fire seemed to want to kill it.
The suppressed breath became stronger and stronger, and the Thunder Whale became more and more irritable, roaring in a low voice, staring at the clouds with its blood-red eyes, as if its mortal enemy was there.
Finally, the first thunder tribulation arrived. Thousands of lightning bolts transformed into a giant lightning net, covering the Thunder Whale. The Thunder Whale roared, leaped up, and rushed towards the lightning net.
Feeling the power of the lightning net from afar, Liu Xing and the others were shocked and astonished.
The Thunder Whale rammed into it with its flesh, a sizzling sound echoing as the electric shock sent its entire body into spasms, the lightning roasting it to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. The Thunder Whale grimaced in pain, but thankfully the first level of thunder tribulation was the least powerful, and with its powerful body it withstood it.
"Demon beasts are just like humans. Their first tribulation is usually three layers of blue thunder tribulation, with each layer stronger than the last. The stronger the individual's strength, the more powerful the thunder tribulation they face. Brother Liu, your magic power is profound and far exceeds that of your peers. You must be mentally prepared." Wuyazi reminded.
"Yeah." Liu Xing nodded solemnly.
"Here it comes again!" Nie Xiaoqian exclaimed.
Before the Thunder Whale could recover from the first level of thunder, a second level of lightning and fire, twice as powerful, bombarded it. The Thunder Whale roared angrily, mobilizing all its magical power to perform a secret technique, covering its entire body with a layer of thunder.
The lightning robe shattered upon contact with the lightning and fire. The seemingly powerful secret technique was incredibly fragile under the thunder tribulation. Liu Xing's face was also solemn. No wonder only one in ten cultivators could successfully survive the thunder tribulation and advance successfully. The heavens were too strict in regulating this stage.
The lightning robe shattered, and the second level of thunder tribulation struck the Thunder Whale, knocking it down from the sky and overturning it in the deep sea. The Thunder Whale screamed shrilly, its breath instantly weakened by nearly half, making people shudder.
