Chapter 136 - Tribulation
Chapter 136 - Tribulation
Jian and Song Yu have been standing in front of the wall for the last ten minutes. Only a few minutes remain till the third trial starts. So they have been standing beforehand.
Song Yu have thoroughly practised the Thunder Guiding Strike technique. While she was practising, Jian had recovered from his fatigue of refining the Thunder Strengthening Pill.
Jian also had asked several questions to the system about the pill and the technique. He also had cleared several doubts about them. He had also asked several other questions.
Jian had wholly recovered in top condition after learning about the last part of the trial. He wanted to be in top shape when he faced the final test.
He also told Song Yu to recover to the top condition and get ready for the last trial.. He also explained to her about the final part of the trial and told her to rest.
So for the last four hours, she only focused on recovering and being in top condition for the last part of the trial. After practising the technique then she only focused on healing.
Jian had also not given her any pointers about the technique. Because he didn't learn the technique himself, he didn't want to interfere with her understanding of the technique.
Now only a few seconds were remaining, so Jian and Song Yu focused on the wall. They are ready for the final trial.
After a few seconds, the wall lit up, and the words started to appear. Jian and Song Yu immediately started to read them.
"Congratulations on reaching the final part of the trial.
To reach here, you have cleared several trials, and for that, once again, congratulations.
I will be giving you the final trial but before that, let me explain the first two parts of the final test.
In the first part, you had to refine the pill, which is called Thunder Strengthening Pill. Which you successfully refined.
The pill is to increase the affinity towards the Thunder element. So it was very crucial for the last part of the test.
For the second test, you learned the Thunder Guiding Strike martial-arts technique.
This technique is to control and guide the Thunder element. With this technique, you will be able to control the Thunder element.
It is also a very crucial part of the last trial.
So for the last trial, you have to face a lightning tribulation which will strike only three times. After successfully withstanding the problem, you will consider clearing the test, and you will move to the next part of the tomb.
The first two tests were to help you survive the tribulation. As the pill will help increase the affinity, and the technique will control.
With these two, you will be able to survive the tribulation. So to for that you were given the first two tests.
Your last trial will start after you eat the pill. You will only have two hours to consume the drug. Otherwise, it will be considered a failure.
You have to use the pill and the technique; otherwise, you will fail the test. The reason is that it will test it for the second part of the trial. So you have to use it.
Best of luck."
Jian and Song Yu couldn't help but curse when they read the wall. They didn't expect to survive the tribulation to clear the last trial a to top that they had to endure a minor problem.
At first, they were fuming, but when they read about the pill and the technique. Song Yu and Jian relaxed a little. With the help of these, they will be able to survive it.
But still, to clear the trial, they had to survive a tribulation. The tribulation contained three strikes of lightning, and one would be stronger than the other.
At first, they had not expected such a test to clear the trial, but then they thought about it carefully, and the final shot was the one they would get if they had to refine a pill that could increase the Thunder affinity and the technique which can help in controlling them.
The words on the wall disappeared. They both went back there and sat since both the pill and the technique have conditions about the Heavenly Warrior.
So Song Yu was the one who was going to face the tribulation. Jian looked at her and saw that her face had become pale after reading the wall.
Jian immediately knew that she understood that she had to face the tribulation, and it was going to be for the first time she met the problem.
Jian wanted to help her relax a bit, but what could he do. She has to face the tribute if she wants the inheritance. As he was thinking about how to help her, the system interrupted.
"Host, you should use the tribulation to increase your cultivation. With the help of the problem, you can complete multiple cycles of your cultivation technique. "
Jian immediately became esthetic but then recalled that the condition for clearing trial didn't allow him to interfere, but the system continued.
"Host, instead of avoiding the tribulation with the help of technology, you should tell Song Yu to send it towards you. With this, would break no rule, and you will also satisfy the condition of the trial"
Jian immediately slapped his forehead; how could he didn't think of this. With this, the burden will lessen, and they will be able to clear the trial quickly.
Jian looked at Song Yu and smiled. He then moved towards and started to explain his plan. He told her everything in detail on what to do. He didn't go into detail about his technique, but he gave her a brief explaining.
Without realising it, only half an hour remained till she was allowed to eat the pill. So Jian and Song Yu stood up. Jian was at the distance of ten meters from her on the opposite side.
Sing Yu was sitting with a pill bottle in her hand. She looked at Jian, who was sitting opposite her.
"Master Jianyu, are you sure about?"
"Yes, you don't need to worry about it. It is very beneficial for me; it will not harm me. Just follow the plan, and we will successfully clear the trial."
Song Yu sighed and once again looked at Jian and saw that he was serious, so she nodded and opened the pill bottle, and then she ate it.
As she ate the pill, the barrier protecting them from the Thunder clouds disappeared, and clouds started to gather above Song Yu.
Jian and Song Yu didn't move. They knew that the final trial had started, and any minutes from now, the first strike of the tribulation could fall.
Song Yu immediately took her sword and stood up as the technique was suitable with any weapons. Song Yu was the sword user, so she had practised it with the sword.
Jian didn't stand. He looked at Song Yu with the Star Gaze and saw that the Thunder element in the air was rushing towards her, and he was able to see her affinity increase.
He knew when the affinity stopped increasing; then the tribulation would start. He saw that clouds were gathering at an astonishing speed. When they stopped collecting, the test would begin.
He and Song Yu have prepared. They have devised their plans, and they have to follow them to clear the trail.
They waited for five minutes. Jian saw the Thunder clouds around Song Yu have calmed down. He immediately looked up at the sky and saw that the clouds had stopped gathering.
He immediately looked at Song Yu and informed her. She then started to follow the step of the technique while waiting for the first strike.
When Jian informed her, she immediately knew that the first strike of the tribulation was coming, so she started to move according to the technique.
On the other side, Jian had also started to run his cultivation technique because the plan was to use the tribulation to depend on Song Yu's control over the method. So he had told her to be careful when the Thunder strikes. She only had the power of the tribulation and sent it towards him.
But she was not comfortable doing it. If someone were here about their plans, they would think that Jian and Song Yu are crazy.
Jian opened his eyes and saw the hesitation on Song Yu's face, so he directly looked into her eye and assured her. She saw Jian looking at her and ensuring her in response. She nodded and prepared herself.
Jian smiled after seeing that the hesitation was gone and focused on cultivating. He and Song Yu knew that at any minute, the tribulation could come.
As they expected, the first strike of the tribulation started to descend on them. Song Yu immediately started to use the technique and control the Thunder element around her.
Jian again opened his eyes and saw the tribulation was descending, so he also prepared himself to face it.
Now it was on Song Yu's control to send the tribulation towards Jian so that he could use it for cultivation.
