685 Su Xiaolu Has Reached Foundation Establishment
The Mantis Shrimp in her arms wriggled out and climbed onto Su Xiaolu’s shoulder.
Rumble—
Another bolt of lightning came down. Su Xiaolu could see clearly that the lightning had overflowed from her body and was absorbed by Mantis Shrimp.
“Xiaolu, listen to me. Focus, concentrate, and gather your Qi. You’ll be able to successfully reach the Foundation Establishment stage.”!!
Zhou Zhi’s voice was deep. He leaned closer to Su Xiaolu’s ear and said word by word to her.
He knew that Su Xiaolu must be able to hear him.
Su Xiaolu’s reactions seemed to be many times slower, but she must be able to hear him. Her situation was different from his, but he believed that no matter how strange the situation was, the principle was the same.
This lightning tribulation belonged to Su Xiaolu’s Foundation Establishment lightning tribulation.
When he was transcending the lightning tribulation, he wished he could find a place to hide, but Su Xiaolu walked into the lightning rain herself. She became dazed.
Zhou Zhi was a little worried. He wanted to bring Su Xiaolu elsewhere, but the baby in Su Xiaolu’s arms bit him.
Zhou Zhi felt his body go numb and stiff. He couldn’t even carry Su Xiaolu. He fell straight down.
“Master—”
Jin Liu and the others exclaimed.
“Rumble—”
Another bolt of lightning struck down. Su Xiaolu felt that all she could see was white.
She didn’t feel any pain from being struck by lightning. It was just numb. The only drawback was that she was slow to move and didn’t react in time.
Hearing Zhou Zhi’s words, she belatedly understood.
It turned out that this was her lightning tribulation. She was about to reach the Foundation Establishment stage.
She quickly focused. Gradually, she felt a thick power. As every lightning tribulation poured into her body, Su Xiaolu guided this power and sorted it out over and over again for her own use.
The thunderclouds pressed down on her. After six bolts of lightning, the thunderclouds dispersed and rain fell.
Su Xiaolu circulated her energy deeply. Most of this sweet rain was absorbed by her, and a portion was absorbed by others.
The thunderclouds dispersed, and the sun shone.
The Mantis Shrimp in her arms hummed. Su Xiaolu realized that the fur of Mantis Shrimp had darkened a lot.
She was a little curious. A childish voice sounded in her sea of consciousness. “Xiaolu, I want to enter the Space.”
Su Xiaolu was stunned for a moment. Mantis Shrimp raised its head and licked Su Xiaolu’s finger. Its childish voice carried a wheedle. “Xiaolu, it’s me, Mantis Shrimp. I want to go into the Space to sleep. I’m sleepy…”
Mantis Shrimp. Su Xiaolu was shocked. This little thing could speak.
Mantis Shrimp had helped her block many lightning tribulations just now. Su Xiaolu didn’t think too much about it and put Mantis Shrimp into her Space.
Looking at Zhou Zhi lying on the ground, Su Xiaolu squatted down. She reached out and placed her hand on Zhou Zhi’s wrist. She activated her spiritual energy to soothe Zhou Zhi’s body.
Jin Liu, Jin Qi, and the others surrounded him anxiously.
“Young Master Su, how is Master?”
It was really dangerous just now.
Zhou Zhi did not move. He looked at Su Xiaolu and was relieved to see that she was fine.
Soon, he could move. He looked at Su Xiaolu and was about to speak when Old Wu interrupted him.
“Rascal, hurry up and carry your brother back to his room. He finally played the role of an older brother well this time.”
Old Wu stroked his beard and emphasized the word “brother” meaningfully.
Su Xiaolu quickly nodded. She was strong. She grabbed Zhou Zhi’s hands and carried him on her back.
Zhou Zhi glanced at Old Wu, who smiled kindly at him.
Zhou Zhi retracted his gaze and said nothing.
It was a good thing that Su Xiaolu had reached the Foundation Establishment.
After Su Xiaolu reached the Foundation Establishment stage, her power increased greatly. After settling Zhou Zhi down, Su Xiaolu returned to the barracks.
As soon as she returned to the room, Old Wu grabbed her hand to take her pulse. The old man was worried about her, so Su Xiaolu did not move.
Soon, Old Wu let go and said, “It’s unnecessary to worry. You are fine after so many bolts of lightning. How magical.”
Gui You frowned. “Do all Foundation Establishment cultivators have to be struck by lightning? If they don’t succeed, will they be struck to death?”
Su Xiaolu did not know either. She thought for a moment and said, “Maybe.”
“However, after successfully transcending the Tribulation Transcendence, I feel that my body is a little different. Master Gui You, why don’t we compete? I feel that my entire body is filled with strength now. I feel that my lifespan should have changed. Under normal circumstances, if I maintain this state now, I should be able to live for 200 years.”
Su Xiaolu felt that she could comprehend more.
The path of cultivation did not seem to be difficult to explore.
People would live a long life as their cultivation level changed. It was not impossible for them to achieve Immortal Ascension and live as long as the heavens.
Gui You looked at Su Xiaolu. “Then let’s try.”
The master and disciple went out together and left the camp.
Many people noticed the master and disciple.
Everyone tacitly chased after them to take a look.
Old Wu shook his head. “He’s getting old.”
He didn’t follow. He turned to another barracks.
Old Wu went to see Hu Changshou. When Hu Changshou saw Old Wu, he greeted him politely, “Elder Wu, you’re here.”
Old Wu nodded and sat down by the bed. He said to Hu Changshou, “How do you feel? Let me tell you good news. Xiaolu has reached the Foundation Establishment stage. This time, the rain and thunder were her tribulations. It’s good news. You can try whatever the girl told you. You don’t have to be so rigid in your thoughts. You can try many things. Don’t give up easily.”
“I know. Thank you.”
Hu Changshou was extremely grateful.
“If it were five years ago, I’m afraid even gods wouldn’t be able to do anything about someone like you. However, now that the foreign world has fused with ours, the spiritual energy has recovered, and order has changed, your situation is not a big deal. Don’t think that you’re a burden. As long as you can live, don’t be afraid even if you have to be a pig or a dog. As long as you’re alive, anything is possible.”
Old Wu comforted Hu Changshou. Hu Changshou could only move his head now. It was no different from being crippled.
“You can’t see anything else, but you can see the Wisdom King. He’s much more miserable than you. You still remember Zhou Heng from the girl’s house in the past, right? The two brothers were twins, but their fates were completely different. The Wisdom King’s feet were gone. If he didn’t push through, he would have long been a pile of bones. Now, the clouds have dissipated and the moon is bright. This means that there’s only hope when people are alive.”
Old Wu thought of Zhou Zhi and couldn’t help but sigh from the bottom of his heart.
Hu Changshou was deep in thought. He didn’t reveal his true emotions, but in his heart, he was more anxious and broken than anyone else.
He still could not move. He tried to sense and control himself, but there was still no change. He was in despair, but he did not want to disappoint and worry Su Xiaolu.
Listening to the heavy rain and thunder outside, he felt desolate and lonely.
He did not expect Old Wu to come and see him. Moreover, he seemed to have seen through him at a glance.
