Chapter 388: 387. Promotion to Nascent Soul
"Boom boom..." Just then, the second bolt of lightning struck down.
The thumb-sized nine streaks of lightning continuously fell onto the defensive formation, striking Luo Shu’s body directly. This wave of Heavenly Tribulation left her with many more wounds, but it also made the Nascent Soul Body within her stronger, the white orb, like a baby within a mother’s womb, had slowly grown limbs.
Luo Shu held fast to her will, bracing herself for the next wave of the Heavenly Tribulation. As long as she withstood the third wave, she would successfully advance to Nascent Soul.
The third bolt of the Heavenly Tribulation did not make Luo Shu wait long and quickly descended, but unlike the previous two times, the nine bolts did not fall all at once but one after another.
With each strike, Luo Shu’s complexion worsened a bit, and another wound was added to her body.
At the same time, the white orb within her body became more and more complete, slowly forming into a tiny person that looked exactly like her. She knew that this was her nascent soul body. In the future, even if her body were destroyed, as long as her Nascent Soul remained intact, she could seek a new body to perform Soul Snatching and be reborn.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Lightning struck Luo Shu one after another until after the nine bolts of the Heavenly Tribulation had all ended, she was so battered by the arcs of lightning that her body was left without an undamaged spot.
With the end of the Heavenly Tribulation, a tribulation cloud slowly drifted above Luo Shu’s head, the best reward given to a cultivator after surviving the Heavenly Tribulation. It contained rich spiritual energy that could nourish a cultivator’s newly advanced body, purify the meridians, and make the newly advanced cultivation even more solid and stable.
Nourished with the rich spiritual energy from the tribulation cloud, Luo Shu suddenly felt as if her whole body was basked in warm sunlight, so comfortable that she wanted to moan aloud.
Feeling the tribulation cloud around her dispersing, Luo Shu slowly opened her eyes. After nourishment from the rich spiritual energy of the tribulation cloud, she felt as though she had undergone a complete transformation, especially a new, powerful strength within her body that was utterly different from before, urging her to burst into triumphant laughter.
"Shushu!" Lu Hanmo’s voice came from the side.
Luo Shu turned her head to look, and her eyes immediately revealed a hint of amazement. After being nourished by the rich spiritual energy of the tribulation cloud, Lu Hanmo’s already extraordinarily handsome features had become even more enchanting. He was like a noble deity descended from heaven, every movement exuded a dignified regal aura, making her heart involuntarily race for him.
While Luo Shu was captivated by Lu Hanmo’s charm, he too was stunned by her beauty.
Now her skin had become even more translucent and tender, and her entire body radiated a faint glow. Her beautiful face was dreamy and unreal, provoking a sense of disbelief in its viewers.
At this moment, the communication talisman began to vibrate, bringing Luo Shu back to her senses. She took out the talisman and saw it was Yun Han. A light smile curved her lips as she activated the talisman, "Yun Han, where are you and Brother Xiao Yao now?"
"We just left Spirit Mountain Town and are heading to the Blood Sea Region. When you contacted me earlier, Brother Xiao Yao and I were fighting with a Level Five Spirit Beast, so I didn’t receive it. Did you need something?" Yun Han asked.
"No, we’ll wait for you in the Blood Sea Region," Luo Shu said.
"Alright! We’ll contact you when we arrive," Yun Han replied with a laugh and then cut off the connection.
Luo Shu put away the communication talisman and looked toward Lu Hanmo who had walked up to her. Seeing that he was gazing at her intensely, she playfully scolded him with a glare, "Why are you staring at me like that? There’s no flower on my face." His gaze was so fervent that her heartbeat quickened once more.
"You are more beautiful than flowers," Lu Hanmo reached out and held Luo Shu’s hand, gazing at her tenderly.
"Stop it!" Luo Shu coquettishly glared at Lu Hanmo, her heart brimming with sweetness. No woman doesn’t wish to be the most beautiful in the eyes of the man she loves.
Lu Hanmo smiled indulgently, gently tousling Luo Shu’s soft hair, "Let’s go to the Blood Sea Region."
"Okay!" Luo Shu beamed with a brilliant smile. Her current strength had given her confidence. She hoped that this trip to the Blood Sea Region would yield great rewards.
On the plaza outside the Blood Sea Domain Ruins, the cultivators were mostly gathered in small groups, chatting away with faces full of anticipation, discussing what treasures the ruins might contain this time. Aside from some Loose Cultivators, there were also young disciples from various sects who had come in teams.
Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo sat down under a tree, waiting for the opening of the ruins. There were still three days before the ruins would open.
Pulling out some Spirit Grass and a Pill Furnace, Luo Shu began to concoct Elixirs. Her experience with the Nascent Soul Pill had taught her the importance of alchemy.
Lu Hanmo, too, started studying formations. Although his mastery of formations was already enough to easily kill a mid to late stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, he was not content with his current level. He wanted to become stronger, to become strong enough to completely protect Shushu under his wings, shielding her from the slightest harm.
Yun Han and Xiao Yao arrived at the Blood Sea Region and contacted Luo Shu immediately.
"Yun Han and the others have arrived." Luo Shu put away her Pill Furnace and Spirit Grass. Seeing Yun Han and his companion approaching, she waved at them with a smile.
"Luo Shu!" Yun Han and Xiao Yao approached with smiles on their faces.
Luo Shu returned the greeting with a nod and introduced them to each other, "Brother Xiao Yao, this is Lu Hanmo. Hanmo, this is Brother Xiao Yao."
"Hello!" The two men shook hands.
Xiao Yao sized up Lu Hanmo and felt that Yun Han’s words had been no mistake. Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu indeed made a good pair, and he could sense the trust and dependence Luo Shu had for Lu Hanmo.
The four sat down and began to share their experiences over the past few days.
"Luo Shu, who poisoned you with the Nascent Soul Fruit Pollen?" Yun Han asked, as it was his most pressing concern.
Luo Shu smiled wryly and said somewhat helplessly, "It was one of my teachers; she has always disliked me. Someone took advantage of this to poison me. As for who is behind it, I don’t know yet; I’ll have to investigate when I get back." She was determined not to let the person get away with it.
"You don’t have any clue at all?" asked Yun Han. He felt that Luo Shu should know something.
After thinking for a moment, Luo Shu said, "I’ve met the person but am not sure of their identity. I had not advanced to Nascent Soul at the time, so I couldn’t discern their cultivation, but I suspect they are also a Nascent Soul Cultivator."
