Lightning Tribulation Liquid

This Sovereign frowned. If not for Lin Tian, his tribulation crossing would very likely have failed just now, and he would have died beneath the Heavenly Tribulation. Lin Tian could be called his lifesaving benefactor.

He knew full well that if he handed Lin Tian over, Lin Tian would certainly die. If he were a Demonic Path cultivator, he naturally would not think much of it, but he was someone who repaid kindness without fail.

He could not hand Lin Tian over and send him to his death. If he truly did so, his Dao heart would inevitably be damaged, and the road of cultivation would become even more arduous.

But the other party was the son of a Great Emperor, which made this Sovereign hesitate.

"How do you prove that you are the son of a Great Emperor?" the Sovereign expert asked with a frown.

Zhou Qiongtian smiled faintly and took out the Zhou Clan Young Master token. It carried a trace of Zhou Kuang's aura, and the Sovereign expert immediately believed him.

"Young Master Zhou, this man has shown me kindness. I am not one to betray faith and righteousness. I am truly sorry, but after this matter, I will no longer have any ties with him. I hope Young Master Zhou can forgive me."

The Sovereign expert clasped his hands. A dignified Sovereign expert treating a Cycle Early Stage cultivator this way was hard to believe, but if that person was Zhou Qiongtian, it became understandable.

"Forgiven, forgiven," Zhou Qiongtian said. He sighed inwardly. It seemed he would not be able to kill Lin Tian this time. Destiny and the will of heaven truly were difficult to deal with.

A Sovereign expert, and a rogue cultivator at that—Zhou Qiongtian did not want to make an enemy of a Sovereign expert over this matter.

"Kid, I'll send you away. As for whether you can escape, that will depend on your own fortune. From now on, neither of us owes the other anything."

With a wave of the Sovereign expert's hand, Lin Tian vanished from the spot.

Ding! Congratulations, Host, for destroying Child of Destiny Lin Tian's opportunity. Destiny Points +!

"Elder Mo, let's go," Zhou Qiongtian said, preparing to leave.

"Young Master Zhou, please accept this item," the Sovereign expert suddenly said, handing Zhou Qiongtian something.

Zhou Qiongtian immediately understood. He did not want to make an enemy of this Sovereign expert, and this Sovereign expert likewise did not want to make an enemy of the Zhou Clan over this matter. The Zhou Clan's power was simply too terrifying.

Though he had become a Sovereign, had he not seen how even Sovereign experts from those super factions did not dare act too presumptuously before the Zhou Clan?

Previously, Zhou Kuang had forcibly taken away the Mystic Heaven Hegemony Sect's Young Sect Master and even dug out the Young Sect Master's Supreme Bone. The Mystic Heaven Hegemony Sect's Sect Master had not dared utter a single peep.

Zhou Qiongtian smiled and nodded at the Sovereign expert, took the item he had handed over, then returned to the Zhou Clan with Elder Mo.

Zhou Qiongtian looked at the item the Sovereign expert had given him. It was actually a small bottle of Lightning Tribulation Liquid!

Zhou Qiongtian immediately revealed a look of surprise. Lightning tribulations were terrifying beyond measure, and countless cultivators had died within them. Lightning Tribulation Liquid was the essence of the heavenly lightning within a lightning tribulation, an unsurpassed resource for cultivators of the Lightning Dao.

Being able to extract Lightning Tribulation Liquid meant that the Sovereign from earlier cultivated the Lightning Dao and possessed extremely profound attainments in it. Otherwise, he could not possibly refine heavenly lightning into Lightning Tribulation Liquid.

Even such a small bottle of Lightning Tribulation Liquid would make some super factions green with envy. Even within the Zhou Clan, there was no Lightning Tribulation Liquid of such grade.

This was Lightning Tribulation Liquid refined from a Sovereign lightning tribulation, and it was of considerable use even to Sovereign experts.

Lightning Tribulation Liquid could strengthen the physical body, cleanse the tendons and bones, and temper the five viscera and six bowels. If used to cultivate Lightning Dao techniques, it would not only yield twice the result with half the effort, but also enhance the technique's power.

Moreover, Zhou Qiongtian had crossed a lightning tribulation once before, though Zhou Kuang had participated in that one.

With the power of a Great Emperor, Zhou Kuang had used the Law of Lightning to unleash a Great Divine Ability, using the lightning tribulation to temper Zhou Qiongtian's body. He had even condensed a trace of Law Power of Lightning within Zhou Qiongtian's body.

This trace of Law Power of Lightning was incredibly terrifying. One had to know that Law Power was the power of heaven and earth that only Sovereigns could grasp. If this trace of Law Power were released, who knew what would happen to the enemy—but Zhou Qiongtian would definitely croak.

However, this trace of Law Power constantly tempered Zhou Qiongtian's physical body from within, making it stronger.

With this Lightning Tribulation Liquid, Zhou Qiongtian would become more attuned to the Law of Lightning and find it easier to grasp this trace of Law Power of Lightning.

This trip had brought him quite a harvest. Not only had he obtained twenty-five thousand Destiny Points, but he had also gained a small bottle of precious, high-grade Lightning Tribulation Liquid.

For now, he did not intend to kill Lin Tian. However, Zhou Qiongtian had previously used the Fortune Sensing Divine Ability to inspect Lin Tian's destiny and discovered that it had shrunk by nearly half.

After repeatedly escaping death by a hair's breadth and being obstructed by the will of heaven, Lin Tian's destiny had been greatly depleted.

With this small bottle of Lightning Tribulation Liquid, Zhou Qiongtian planned to cultivate a Lightning Dao technique.

Most cultivators only cultivated one Dao. Some cultivated the Sword Dao, some the Spear Dao, Wind Dao, Sound Dao, and so on.

Quite a few cultivators also cultivated other Great Daos alongside their primary Dao, but reaching the level of their primary Dao was difficult!

For one thing, they lacked the energy. Cultivating a single Great Dao could already work someone like a dog; cultivating two Great Daos was not something an ordinary person could accomplish.

Thus, for most people, the Great Dao they cultivated secondarily lagged far behind their primary Dao.

Take Zhou Zimo, for example. She was the foremost among the younger generation of the Azure World. She primarily cultivated the Sword Dao and secondarily cultivated the Wind Dao, yet her attainments in the Wind Dao were only half of her attainments in the Sword Dao.

Zhou Zimo was already like this, let alone everyone else.

Savage Great Emperor Zhou Kuang was an exception. He primarily cultivated the Strength Dao and secondarily cultivated the Lightning Dao, yet he had condensed origin in both Great Daos. Thus, his strength was far greater than that of ordinary Great Emperors.

He had nearly beaten the head off Shadow Great Emperor, the strongest expert of the Shadow Continent.

Zhou Qiongtian planned to cultivate the Strength Dao and the Lightning Dao. As for which would be primary and which secondary, that had yet to be decided. With a father who had condensed origin in both the Strength Dao and Lightning Dao, cultivating them would let him take far fewer detours than others.

Zhou Qiongtian also had a trace of Law Power of Lightning within him and now possessed Lightning Tribulation Liquid. Cultivating the Lightning Dao was currently his best choice.

It was just that his father had not returned yet, so he had not taught Zhou Qiongtian that Emperor-grade Lightning Dao technique.

Originally, Zhou Kuang had planned to let Zhou Qiongtian cultivate the Strength Dao first, then cultivate the Lightning Dao secondarily after his Strength Dao reached a certain level.

Otherwise, cultivating two Great Daos from the very beginning would require too much energy, leaving him unable to keep up.

However, the Zhou Clan also had Sovereign-grade Lightning Dao techniques. Zhou Qiongtian immediately headed to the Zhou Clan's Pill Pavilion.

The Pill Pavilion's Garrison Elder had originally been reclining in a grandmaster's chair, rocking back and forth with a lazy expression. "Now this is living!"

Just then, he saw Zhou Qiongtian and immediately rose from the grandmaster's chair. He came before Zhou Qiongtian with a smile on his face.

"Young Master Zhou, you've come. May I ask what you need?"

"A Sovereign-grade Lightning Dao technique," Zhou Qiongtian said calmly.

"Certainly. Sovereign-grade techniques are on the sixth floor. I'll take you there." The Garrison Elder wore a fawning expression. Though he was an elder, his cultivation was not high—merely Saint Great Perfection.

"No need. Give me the token, and I'll go myself."

"Yes, yes, yes. Please."
