Divine King of Honour-Chapter 561: The Elder’s Request

"Boom!"

Finally, after waiting for two hours,

the clouds of tribulation in the sky eventually descended.

A purple thunderbolt, as thick as a thumb, streaked across the sky, targeting Xu Nian.

This thunderbolt contained powerful destructive fluctuations.

However, as the thunderbolt swiftly smashed down, Xu Nian did not dodge or evade, allowing the thunderbolt to fiercely strike him.

"Bang!"

A loud explosion.

Xu Nian's body, like being hammered, directly hit the yellow sand.

The sands instantly stirred up, forming a hundred-zhang-high wave of sand.

"Cough, cough!"

Xu Nian lay in the pit of sand, violently coughing while clutching his chest.

The area around his chest was even charred black.

Just now, to test the strength of his own body, he deliberately did not perform any attacks and let the thunderbolt strike him.

But that strike almost cost him his life.

It could be said that in that instant, Xu Nian felt as if he had been punched by a two-star Body Emperor Strong.

That feeling was indescribably sour yet thrilling.

It was also fortunate that his body had undergone a significant breakthrough this time.

Otherwise, he truly couldn't have withstood that thunderbolt.

"It seems I can't be reckless, this Heavenly Tribulation is too terrifying," Xu Nian muttered to himself.

This was beyond the strength Cultivation he possessed.

If it had been any ordinary Body Emperor Strong, they probably couldn't have withstood even the first thunderbolt.

"Crack!"

The dark clouds in the sky were torn again.

Another thunderbolt rushed towards Xu Nian with great speed.

The power of this thunderbolt was obviously stronger than the previous one.

Its thickness increased from the size of a thumb to double that size.

The fluctuations from it were even more terrifying than before.

Where did Xu Nian dare to delay even a moment, he quickly summoned the Dragon Blood Energy within his body.

Instantly, the Blood-colored Dragon Scale Armor surged upon Xu Nian's body.

"Earth Fist!"

Xu Nian shouted loudly, a powerful wave of earth's energy instantly gathered on his arm.

"Boom!"

Xu Nian threw a punch.

The terrifying force exploded instantly.

Xu Nian's body also instantly flew backward.

It slid across the sandy surface, creating a trail that was five hundred meters long.

"Ptooey!"

Xu Nian spat out a mouthful of sand and couldn't help but curse internally: "Damn, such a strong attack, it almost overpowered my Earth Fist."

However fortunately, the dark clouds in the sky dissipated into the air following the descent of these two thunderbolts.

Seeing this, Xu Nian collapsed directly onto the sandy surface.

The Second Level Heavenly Tribulation was already this terrifying, he really didn't know how to face further breakthroughs in the future.

Eventually, calling forth the Third Level and Fourth-level Heavenly Prohibition.

Xu Nian couldn't even begin to imagine that scene.

"Buzz!"

The blood-colored dragon scales retracted.

Xu Nian also rose from the ground.

The injury caused by the thunder had mostly healed under the care of the Divine Demon Gang Qi.

However, at this moment, Xu Nian did not rush to leave but instead turned his head and coldly said, "Come out!"

If someone was there, they would definitely be stunned.

Surrounded by a sea of sand, where could anyone be?

"Hum!"

However, not long after Xu Nian spoke, the sand in front of him began to stir, and an old man in a yellow robe appeared before Xu Nian.

"Young man, your power of insight is quite impressive; even buried underground, you managed to find me," the old man said with a smile.

"Speak, you've been secretly spying for so long, what do you want?" Xu Nian asked, looking at the old man.

He could tell that the man before him was not human.

But rather, a Demon Beast, and an Emperor Level at that.

As for the true form of the Demon Beast, if Xu Nian was not mistaken, it should be the Desert Emperor Scorpion.

After all, apart from the Desert Emperor Scorpion, there could be no other formidable Demon Beast.

"Human boy, I mean no harm. I was merely drawn by the commotion of your breakthrough and the Heavenly Tribulation, so I came to have a look," the old man chuckled.

However, Xu Nian did not let his guard down in the slightest.

Because the old man before him was not a weakling but a Peak of Two-star Level Demon Emperor.

Such beings were already among the top existences in this desert.

But Xu Nian was not afraid, and if this Demon Emperor intended to attack him, he did not mind having a roasted scorpion as a meal.

"Then after you have seen, why are you still lingering here?" Xu Nian pursued.

If it were merely out of curiosity, the old man should have left after witnessing him crossing the Heavenly Tribulation.

Remaining here now clearly indicated he had other motives.

"Human boy, you truly are clever. The Earth Core Tianyuan Liquid in the Moon-shaped Lake, it was taken by you, wasn't it?" the Emperor Scorpion said, still smiling.

"Yes, you came for the Earth Core Tianyuan Liquid. If that's the case, then I am afraid you will be disappointed, for I have already consumed it all," Xu Nian replied.

"Human boy, your hostility is strong. I am not here for the Tianyuan Liquid. If I indeed needed the Earth Core Tianyuan Liquid, why would I leave it there for you to take? The intense cold of the Earth Core Tianyuan Liquid is hardly suitable for us, the Desert Emperor Scorpions. I am here to ask you for a favor," the Emperor Scorpion began.

"A favor? What favor?" Xu Nian asked, surprised.

He had no prior connections with this Emperor Scorpion. Why would it seek his help?

"Human boy, if at such a young age you have already reached this level, I presume the vast continent will not be able to hinder your steps in the future. If so, I hope that when you venture into the Forbidden Sea, you would carry this item to an old friend of mine," the Emperor Scorpion said.

As he spoke, a metal box appeared in his hand.

Xu Nian was taken aback, realizing that the old man wanted him to deliver the metal box to his friend.

"Alright, I agree," Xu Nian consented.

After all, he was bound to head for the Forbidden Sea eventually.

Since that was the case, carrying a few items for him wasn't a troublesome matter.

"Young man, don't agree too hastily; my friend happens to be an Undersea Demon Beast belonging to the forces of the Forbidden Sea, and though these undersea Demon Beasts are potent, they also harbor great dangers. You could very well be putting your life at risk," the Emperor Scorpion cautioned.

Xu Nian was stunned.

An undersea Demon Beast force?

How did this Emperor Scorpion, a desert creature, end up being friends with a Sea Demon from the undersea power?

This friendship truly spanned great distances.

"Of course, I won't ask for your help for nothing. This is a token that I once acquired. If you agree to help me, I will give you this token," the Emperor Scorpion continued.

Upon finishing, he produced a token.

Xu Nian was stunned upon seeing the token. It was identical to the one he had obtained from the Bull Demon King.

Unexpectedly, this old man also possessed one.

"Well, in that case, I accept this bargain," Xu Nian immediately took the token and the metal box.

The old man's face also showed a smile.

He then shared his friend's information with Xu Nian.
