The Chan Sect's exquisite artifact-refining arts, extraordinary body-tempering techniques, and all manner of unfathomable magical treasures; the Jie Sect's Shangqing Divine Lightning, methods of array formation, unmatched fierceness of Lightning Law, and endlessly profound formations. All kinds of divine abilities filled him with longing.
Lu Tian watched the battle alongside Zhending and Shen Gongbao.
Though the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique was only a simplified version, bolstered by numerous magical treasures, it withstood the Shangqing Lightning Law and pressed forward step by step. Duobao remained calm, activating talismans to draw upon the lightning. In an instant, heavenly thunder crashed down!
The contest was somewhat dull.
Lu Tian had already seen through the outcome—the Jie Sect's formation would surely win.
Yet Shen Gongbao watched with rapt attention, unable to stop himself from imagining: if he entered a Sage's sect, how glorious would that be?
Lu Tian caught sight of Shen Gongbao's expression and shook his head with a soft laugh. At this point, Shen Gongbao had yet to turn dark. He was still an honest man wholly devoted to seeking the Dao. He had originally joined the Chan Sect, but because he resented Yuanshi Tianzun's favoritism toward Jiang Ziya, he later defected to the Jie Sect. In the end, to oppose Jiang Ziya, he dragged the Jie Sect into the abyss.
If he directly joined the Jie Sect, how would his fate change?
No matter what, he was destined to be a key figure in the tribulation, the hidden hand driving the immortals of the Three Sects onto the list. This was fate. The great trend of the Heavenly Dao could not be defied.
The result was soon revealed: the formidable body tempered through the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique ultimately could not withstand the blazing heavenly thunder and suffered a crushing defeat.
