The three of them were stunned. Only then did they understand that someone was breaking through. They looked at Mike as if he was a treasure, and all of them wanted to go up and make friends with him.

Kelly frowned and asked, “Aren’t the three of you leaving? Why are you still standing here?”

When the three of them heard Kelly’s merciless question, they felt a little indignant. However, they did not dare to gamble, so they could only turn into three streams of light gloomily and retreat into the distance.

Suddenly, a streak of light flew past the three of them and headed straight for Mike.

Kelly frowned. He formed a spell and shouted, “Arcane Star Shower!!”

Countless energy streams shot toward the streak of light, successfully forcing him to stop in the middle of the air.

The streak of light slowly descended, revealing the face of the Guardian. He flew in front of Kelly and asked, “Who are you? Why do you want to interfere with the matters of our Dark Church?”

Kelly smiled and said,

“My disciple is in a Calamity. As a teacher, do you want to stand by and watch?”

The Guardian frowned and said, “Your words are groundless. It’s really hard to believe. I will protect Mike. You should go back to where you came from. When Mike’s calamity is over, I will verify your identity with him.”

Kelly shook her head and said, “I won’t let you rush over and destroy my disciple.”

The Guardian frowned and said directly, “You don’t want me to give you face?”

Kelly’s expression changed. She waved her hand, and a stream of purple light shot toward the Guardian.

The Guardian’s expression changed as well. He looked at Kelly and took out a fan. He fanned it lightly twice, and all the streams of purple light rolled back.

Kelly was a little surprised. She knew of the power of this purple stream of light, and it was enough to heavily injure a middle-stage divine-tier expert. However, the old man had actually neutralized all of her attacks with just a casual wave of his fan. It was truly unfathomable.

The Guardian was very familiar with his weapon. Ever since he had obtained this weapon, he had sent countless attacks flying. However, he had never used up a small portion of his half-divine power in such a manner before.

For a moment, Kelly and the Guardian looked at each other in a different way.

Suddenly, the sky rumbled. Streaks of lightning appeared and disappeared in the clouds. It was obvious that the next wave of attacks was about to arrive.

The expressions of the two of them changed at the same time. They understood that with Mike’s strength, he would definitely not be able to withstand the intensity of the lightning.

The two of them stopped their fight and ran toward Mike with all their strength.

Mike looked at the six bolts of lightning in the sky and his expression changed. He finally started to panic. He knew that if he could not make the right response, the next wave of lightning would kill him.

Just as Mike was in a dilemma, Kelly and the Guardian flew to Mike’s side one after the other. They attacked together and shared nine-tenths of the lightning damage for Mike.

Green smoke was coming out of Mike’s body. Nine-tenths of the Lightning was weakened, but it still almost killed him.

The three of them let out a sigh of relief. If the two of them had not arrived in time, Mike would have been a corpse by now.

Mike was about to stand up and thank the two of them, but his expression suddenly changed. The three of them looked at the sky at the same time and saw another bolt of lightning gathering in the sky, about to fall.

The three of them had a drastic change in expression. They could feel the endless destructive aura from this bolt of lightning.

Eve flew out and said, “Oh no, this is the Lightning of Punishment! It’s the heavenly axiom that judged you to have used an improper method to avoid the disaster. Mike, now we have to face this Lightning of Punishment alone. Otherwise, there will be an even stronger one that will fall!”

Mike’s expression changed as he said, “Bastard, let’s go all out. I don’t believe that I can’t beat this lightning!”

Mike pulled himself together and merged with the four beasts at the same time. He swallowed a bunch of medicinal pills to recover divine power and then rushed toward the lightning.

Kelly frowned and muttered, “Why would the heavenly axiom judge Mike?”

The Guardian smiled bitterly and said, “I didn’t expect that our actions would not only fail to help, but also harm that brat.”

Kelly shook her head and said, “At this point in time, it’s no longer useful to say these things. You should be prepared to make a move at any time. You must do your best to save his life, even if he can’t advance to the divine-tier.”

The black lightning in the sky had already condensed into a pitch-black lightning Flood Dragon, carrying an endless destructive aura.

Mike made up his mind. He immediately took out his bone spear and used his strongest move to strike the black lightning dragon.

Thunder rumbled as Mike and the black lightning dragon collided. In an instant, the clouds churned. The colorful clouds mixed together and then shattered.

Mike only felt pain. Endless pain. The black lightning surged into his body. Everything in its path was quickly destroyed. This was Mike’s punishment for being impulsive, reckless, and opportunistic.

The skills he had spent 200 years to cultivate would probably reset to zero, and he would have to start all over again.

At this time, a silver light suddenly appeared on the surface of Mike’s body. A huge silver moon tree grew out of Mike’s body. It turned into a huge umbrella cover, blocking the black lightning that followed.

With a boom, Mike’s vision fell into temporary darkness. The next moment, Mike felt a space opening up in his heart. It was not a piece of Mike’s body. That feeling… It was as if something important had left.

A drop of clear tears rolled down Mike’s face. It flowed down Mike’s dirty face. The place where the tears flowed became much cleaner.

Mike lay flat in the air as if he was a dead body. If his body was not exuding a powerful and terrifying aura, both the Guardian and Kelly would have thought he was dead.

Mike got up from the middle of the air. He looked at the stump in front of him with tears streaming down his face.

In the Snowstorm City of the Otherworld, the potted plants in the corner began to grow crazily. In the end, they turned into a treant. The treant looked in the direction of the Northern Region with a drop of clear tears in his eyes.

He touched the One-million-message Portal on the table and called Kelly.

Kelly hurriedly connected to the one-million-letter portal and said, “What’s the matter?”

The treant choked and said, “Tell Mike that life and death are very normal things between heaven and earth. Let him see the light.”

Mike’s body trembled, and he said, “Is it Grandpa Mu?”

Mike cried out loud. After more than 120 years, Mike cried again.

The Treant said, “Let it go.”

He hung up.

The treant sat on the ground, tears flowing silently.

Suddenly, the Guardian said, “Look, on the stump!”
