I Can Destroy Planets with My Psychokinesis-Chapter 459. Impossible to end well
Chapter 459: 459. Impossible to end well
"Being in the Thunder Tribulation Realm is to be called a ’Heavenly Monarch,’ essentially meaning Heavenly God.
To gain such mighty power, how could it possibly be easy?
One must surely endure endless dangers, with a survival chance of one in ten. It is normal for Lu Li to feel uncertain.
But action is in people’s hands, and despite endless obstacles, one still has to do it.
Fortunately, this ridiculous meal gave Lu Li a bit of nourishment and boosted his spirits, so he planned to continue seeking and enduring lightning strikes.
Just then, Su Qing suddenly said, "Donkey, I’ve been out too long; I need to return to the Sect to report back."
Lu Li frowned and said, "You have to be so careful just to improve your cultivation. Taishan Sect really isn’t a good place."
"It’s okay; I’m used to it."
Su Qing smiled indifferently and said,
"Besides, I can’t gather any information if I’m always outside. This time when I go back, I aim to find out what exactly Immortal Sect is plotting against you... It seems it’s not just about severing your path."
Lu Li cautioned, "Don’t push yourself too hard. Safety first."
"Don’t worry, it’s not my first day messing around in the Immortal Sect."
Su Qing wasn’t the direct disciple, but she was still at least a Great Grandmaster, so her status was not low.
Having such a high-level spy around meant that Taishan Sect’s movements were all within grasp. If it were a battle between two armies, she would have already won by a large margin.
Lu Li said with a chuckle, "Looking at it now, I’m glad I gave you such a hard time back then."
"Damn, you really are a donkey. That hurt me for quite a few days."
Su Qing pinched Lu Li’s face and said, "Following you isn’t too bad, take care of yourself, huh."
"You too, take care."
Lu Li said, "Wait until I get through the Heavenly Tribulation, and I’ll wrap up Taishan Sect and gift it to you."
"Then I’ll be waiting, Lu Tianjun."
After wishing each other take care, they both embarked on their separate journeys.
~~~~~~~~~
Lu Li was still chasing the traces of dark clouds here and there, then closing in a bit to use the attraction of his Divine Soul to thunder, summoning lightning to strike himself.
"If my Life Value is 100, now a single bolt of thunder could strike off 20."
"To get through Heavenly Tribulation, this number must be kept at or below 10!"
The thunder baptism of Blue Star not only strengthened his Divine Soul but also gave Lu Li a basic judgment regarding Heavenly Tribulation—
"As long as the damage from thunder is reduced to 10 or less, with the addition of Heart Image and Immortal Will, my chances of surviving the Heavenly Tribulation are at least forty percent."
Only forty percent, it sounds a bit risky, but it was already the limit Lu Li could achieve at the moment.
Breaking through was ultimately too rushed. If he could do it slowly, like breaking through to ’Martial Saint’ first.
Allowing the physical body to provide the Divine Soul with the maximum boost, his chances of surviving the Heavenly Tribulation could at least reach sixty percent.
But the problem was, this required three years’ time—how could enemies possibly wait that long?
Not to mention far-off issues, that ’Emperor’ could break through as Martial Saint with a sudden stroke of thunder at any time, possibly even tomorrow.
Having killed five foreign experts outside the border, he was sure to be listed as the primary target for elimination.
Thus, Lu Li could only take risks and choose the quickest path.
Fortunately, he had the gifts from his Mother Star, which allowed him to adapt quickly to thunder.
And with the 3000 units of Spirit Mechanism supply, he quickly healed his Divine Soul injuries.
Three days passed, and when the time came to the second day of the second month, known as Dragon Head-Raising, the damage inflicted by thunder had already reduced to 16!
"It hasn’t been easy!"
Lu Li took a deep breath, having endured his Divine Soul being shattered by thunder every day, nearly causing him mental issues.
At least the suffering was not for nothing—the growth of his cultivation was promising!
Of course, this was because it was just the beginning of his cultivation. As his cultivation deepened, progress was sure to slow down.
However, Lu Li was already very satisfied; at this rate, he would soon reach the expected standard.
And there was an unexpected bonus—the Martial Arts Cultivation was also increasing.
Under the repeated tempering of True Qi and Immortal Will, his physical body became more robust, the spirit it generated more vigorous, making his Divine Soul more solid, thus slightly enhancing the probability of breaking through the Heavenly Tribulation.
Lu Li became more convinced: "Indeed, one cannot abandon the physical body!"
The flesh nourished the divine soul, and abilities like the Heavenly Eye also brought great benefits to Martial Arts cultivation.
Both sides had always complemented each other, and it was impossible to suddenly erase one.
The more righteous the path, the smoother the journey; Lu Li’s thoughts became even clearer.
It was then, Xia Weiyun suddenly contacted him through the spirit stored in the Magic Treasure:
"Hey hey~ Little brother, it’s time for you to come back. We have guests to meet today."
"Right, I had arranged to meet the Governor today."
Lu Li was so busy, he had forgotten about it. Looking up at the clock, seeing it was nearly ten, he said,
"I’m on my way back... Is it too late?"
Xia Weiyun replied, "It’s fine, you were supposed to be the last one to arrive."
~~~~~~~~~~~
In social occasions, the most prestigious person often arrives last.
Everyone here was an old hand at this and naturally understood this point; they didn’t mind Lu Li, a newly recognized strong figure, putting on airs.
But making people wait for over two hours was a bit excessive.
At this moment, in the grand hall of the Dragon Sect, nearly a thousand people were gathered.
Leading them were six individuals whose formidable presence and vigorous vitality made the air above their heads seemed blurred; they were the Governors.
Apart from them, there were representatives from various provincial Sects and major forces, speakers, as well as disciples who had come to broaden their horizons.
As time ticked by, the expressions of the people became increasingly uneasy.
"Mr. Lu is really putting on quite the show. Is he trying to show us who’s boss?"
"Who can blame him? The man’s got skills. Just look, his several wives are all Great Grandmasters, and he has handy Magic Artifacts."
Xia Weiyun, Xiao Cha, and the Cat Ears Sisters stood solemnly on the stage, with their weapons hanging openly at their waists.
While the crowd envied them, they also watched with a sense of awe.
Four Great Grandmasters, equipped with Magic Artifacts and Refining God Cultivation, were enough to wipe out 90% of the forces present!
So even though many were dissatisfied, everyone kept quietly enduring.
Especially since the Governors themselves appeared calm and composed, no one dared to complain.
The Governors certainly knew each other and, given the stakes involved, had formed a temporary alliance.
The Governor of Yun and Gui, "Fan Shijie," a member of the Fan Family, worried about his enmity with Lu Li, couldn’t help saying,
"Judging by Master Lu’s deeds since he began his path, he seems like he could be difficult to serve."
Everyone Lu Li killed had deserved it, but his actions also reflected the times, inevitably leading many to empathize with the vanquished.
The fact that he was keeping everyone waiting so long clearly indicated ill intent!
The Governors of Bashu and Fujian and Zhejiang also frowned with concern—those who achieve success at a young age often tend to be arrogant and impulsive, and it’s possible they might actually stir up a conflict.
Then, the three looked simultaneously at Jiang Shixiang and asked, "Does Brother Jiang have any insight?"
Jiang Shixiang was the only one in the room who had had several contacts with Lu Li and was rumored to have a decent relationship with him, hence the question.
But before Jiang Shixiang could speak, the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, "Wang Huai Zhi," interjected,
"Master Lu possesses immense Lucky Qi and looks down on our humble offerings, so he might be easier to talk to."
Upon hearing this, a gleam sparkled in everyone’s eyes.
Lu Li not only cultivated rapidly himself but also allowed several women to quickly break through to the Golden Body. It was evident that he possessed powerful treasures.
With such treasures, he might indeed look down on mere mortal possessions!
Best of all would be if he had no interest in power and focused solely on cultivation; then the world would be theirs for the taking!
While the crowd was lost in surging thoughts, Governor of Hu Guang, "Qiao Chengmo," poured cold water on their fantasies:
"Don’t get your hopes up! Haven’t you noticed that neither Li Yuanzhong nor Liu Jintang have showed up?"
Li Yuanzhong was amiable and had relationships with everyone present; Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Liu Jintang, had rushed to show friendliness toward the Kill Body Society.
Their absence indicated that they must have received some news in advance and had decided to steer clear!
The crowd went tense, realizing that today’s events might not end peacefully.
And as the Governors’ faces grew strange, the rest of the attendants also quickly quieted down, and the atmosphere became quite heavy.
It was at that moment when Lu Li descended from the sky, arriving at the venue.
