Chapter 1197: Immortal

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

This was the last trial for anyone that was going to become an immortal. It was the trial of the mind. If one had no firm mind or strong willpower, the laws of nature would not accept this warrior.

When a warrior could not see through the fake and the truth or was without a heart to rise to the challenges, the warrior would be doomed even the warrior could become an immortal.

The two keywords were origin and truth. Lu Li could not have become an immortal without understanding these two words. Now, the conditions were ripe, and success had come.

“Boom, boom, boom, boom~”

The thunder clapped. Xuan Qi in the entire Prison of Wind was gathering around Lu Li. Lightning glared in the sky but did not strike at Lu Li.

Lu Li looked up with pride. He noticed the lightning had five different colors. He understood that those were from the Prison of Thunder.

This was not a trial. The thunderbolts were to help him rebuild his physical body as an immortal. Being refined by thunderbolts and having a physical body fit for an immortal, it would be an easy journey through the Prison of Thunder. He could probably be immune to lightning strikes.

“Swish, swish~”

Xuan Qi was gathering in the sky above his head; it was becoming richer and richer. Others would find this scary. So much Xuan Qi was gathered there that if it exploded, the space nearby would tear apart and so would all the living beings.

Lu Li stood there calmly and waited for his soul and body to transform and complete the final step.

“Boom!”

Finally, high above the sky, lightning began to move. The first to strike Lu Li was a silver one.

Lu Li did not move away. He didn’t even use his Relic armor or Dragon Armor. He remained still as the lightning struck him.

“Thought so!”

When the thunderbolt entered Lu Li’s body, he noticed something. This thunderbolt differed from normal ones because this one contained special energy. As the energy traveled inside his body, he was growing stronger, and his soul was being transformed as well.

“Boom!”

Again, he was struck. He closed his eyes, so he could better check his body. He waited as his body and soul were refined.

When the anomaly was happening to the Prison of Wind, the entire Purgatory of Primordial Chaos was shaking violently. Blood Emperor and Astro Emperor, who were in the stone forest in the Prison of Soul, were alerted.

They were playing chess in the cabin. Astro Emperor had picked up a chess piece but not played his hand yet. With a smile, he said, “Blood Emperor, I win again.”

Blood Emperor looked at the sky and was surprised. Then, he said with jealousy, “Comparisons are odious. I have been alive for over two thousand years, and I have been working hard. But I am still not as good as he even though he has been cultivating for merely decades.”

“Ha, ha!”

Astro Emperor’s smile spoke volumes. “Everything is determined by fate. Lu Li should have lived an ordinary life, but because of Lu Ling and that silver dragon, his life was changed. Without the silver dragon, he would not have obtained Emperor Heng’s legacy, and he would not have this achievement.”

“Everything is determined by fate!”

Blood Emperor exclaimed, feeling somewhat frustrated. While gazing at the sky as the space shook, he said, “I have been working hard, and I have had my opportunities. It is such a pity that I cannot take the last step. I cannot explore the boundless Divinity. Such a shame…”

Putting the chess piece down, Astro Emperor said with a mysterious grin, “Well… not necessarily!”

“Really?”

Blood Emperor was seized by ardent thrill. Even his breaths were shortening. Looking at Astro Emperor, he asked, “What… do you mean? Are you saying that my life can be changed?”

“Maybe!”

Stroking his beard, Astro Emperor said, “Lu Ling’s arrival changed many people’s lives. It’s possible that… yours will, too. This is a secret. I cannot let you know too much. You will see in the future!”

“Phew, phew~”

Blood Emperor took a deep, long breath. He had calmed down again, but the excitement in his eyes was still evident. Astro Emperor never said if he was uncertain. So this meant that… Blood Emperor still had a chance.

Other than Blood Emperor and Astro Emperor, many warriors cultivating in the Prison of Ice, Prison of Wind, Prison of Darkness, and Prison of Soul noticed the change. The space was shaking so violently, and Xuan Qi was moving at such a large scale. The warriors could not have missed the anomaly.

Many were confused and puzzled at first. The feeling then changed to envy. Many of those warriors were stuck at the final step. Some had been cultivating for hundreds or over a thousand years. They dreamed of taking the final step but could not have their dream realized.

It had been so many years. Finally, there was another immortal. This could serve as an inspiration to many warriors, while for others, this came as a blow. Some warriors were filled with mixed feelings.

The warriors cultivating in the Prison of Wind hurried toward Lu Li’s location. They wanted to witness the spectacular scene when one was becoming an immortal. Taking the chance to observe, they could be inspired as well.

The nine universes felt the change as well. There was minor trembling in the space. At first, the warriors had no idea what was going on. But soon, they understood.

“He did it!”

The Deaf Taoist, being Lu Li’s spiritual beast, felt the breakthrough at once. He dashed out to tell Lu Renhuang, Lu Zhengyang, Patriarch of Law Enforcement, and the others about this piece of amazing news.

The Deaf Taoist was overjoyed. Lu Li did it, which meant that the Deaf Taoist could go to the Divinity as well. He had not recovered fully yet because the nine universes lacked some materials he needed. He would die for sure if he were to explore the Prison of Thunder by himself.

Now that Lu Li had made it, as his spiritual beast, the Deaf Taoist could follow him to the Divinity and find his way back to the Region of Doom. He would have no more regrets.

“Who did what?”

Lu Renhuang and the others were having a meeting about the many affairs at the Earth Imperial Universe. The Deaf Taoist’s confusing words puzzled them.

Patriarch of Law Enforcement was the first to understand. His lips trembled as he asked, “Do you mean… Lu Li has made the breakthrough?”

“Lord Lu has made the breakthrough!”

Before the Deaf Taoist could answer, Chen Tianxian and Blazing Huo had come in together. Blazing Huo said with certainty. They both felt the unusual signs and had figured out the specifics.

“Sure!”

Lu Zhengyang and Lu Renhuang were over the moon. Though they all knew that it was highly likely that Lu Li could become an immortal, they were not one hundred percent certain.

The news was passed around. The entire City of Great Land flew into a thrill. Finally, another warrior had become an immortal since Emperor of Heaven Reverse ascended to the Divinity. Lu Li was thirty years younger than when the Emperor of Heaven Reverse became an immortal!

The Lu Family members could not be happier. Of course, some were saddened with worries. Becoming an immortal meant that Lu Li had to leave. The Lu Family had just come to the Earth Imperial Universe without gaining a firm foundation. Inevitably, Lu Li leaving would cause panic.

In a beautiful yard to the city north, Jiang Qiling, Bai Qiuxue, and Bai Xiashuang looked at each other, silently. Lu Li had become an immortal. They had to part ways with their husband.

None of the immortals that ascended to the Divinity came back. The only one that did was Emperor Heng, who passed away not long afterward.

This might be… goodbye forever!
