"Senior, you've been so generous. I can't be stingy in return.
"I lost all memory of my past. When I woke, I was already in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Ground. But I remembered a method of attaining the Dao through the physical body.
"Once cultivated to Mahayana, the body can endure forever even if the soul is destroyed.
"After long ages, a new soul will even be born within it."
A sharp gleam flashed through Gai Jiuyou's clouded eyes.
He took the cultivation method Lin Yi handed him and grew more engrossed the longer he read.
"What an Indestructible Golden Body! In this age, isn't it another path to attaining the Dao?"
Another half year passed. Lin Yi could advance no further in the Four Extremes Secret Realm.
Even Gai Jiuyou admitted he had misjudged him. That thick-skinned brat was devious enough to conceal an entire major realm without Gai Jiuyou noticing.
"Ao..."
A dragon's cry shook the Nine Heavens. Crackling erupted inside Lin Yi as his entire spine blazed like a divine sun. Every vertebra shifted, as though a True Dragon were awakening, releasing an aura that shook past and present.
Boom!
The Lightning Tribulation grew violent beyond belief. Its brilliance was like countless seas of stars falling to engulf the place.
Lin Yi's figure vanished, swallowed by the Thunder Sea. Divine radiance buried the world, leaving light everywhere and no trace of him in sight.
Nothing else seemed to exist. Lightning had drowned everything. The glare stung the eyes, and its destructive force could be felt from far away.
Boom!
A vast expanse of the Thunder Sea crashed down. Every bolt was as thick as a mountain, and the immense arcs joined into a blazing ocean of electricity.
This was an apocalyptic Heaven's Punishment, a Great Destruction.
