Spirit Metamorphosis, Divine Transformation-Nine Netherworld Dark Bird!

Within the Black God Lightning Clouds, the Nine-leaf Sword Grass riding the Nine Netherbird crazily devoured the violent Black God Lightning.

Of the originally silver Nine-leaf Sword Grass, one leaf had already been dyed pitch-black.

The Black God Lightning that even divine beasts avoided clung to it.

"Thunder Pool—there really is a Thunder Pool!"

At the deepest part of the Black God Lightning Clouds, a special space appeared.

There was no ocean-like sea of lightning, only thick, syrupy lightning liquid!

This was incomparably precious Thunder Liquid!

"Bring Luo Li up here, Little Nine Netherbird."

The Black God Lightning Clouds had now taken Zhao Chen's shape.

Luo Li could safely enter the Black God Lightning Clouds without being struck by the Black God Lightning.

"No problem!"

After personally witnessing the Black God Lightning Tribulation that had caused her two failures be utterly defeated before Zhao Chen's Nine-leaf Sword Grass form, Little Nine Netherbird was completely convinced.

Without any hesitation, she immediately plunged down through the Black God Lightning Clouds and brought up the anxiously waiting Luo Li.

"What happened?"

Luo Li was extremely surprised to discover that Zhao Chen had actually reached the Late Heaven-reaching Realm!

Moreover, the Black God Lightning was like a pet being toyed with in his palm, no longer as violent and savage as before.

This left even her utterly astonished, forcing her to revise her understanding.

"Little Grass subdued the Black God Lightning, and we found pure Thunder Liquid accumulated over countless years in the depths of these Black God Lightning Clouds."

Little Nine Netherbird was beside herself with excitement. She had already passed her tribulation perfectly.

But if she absorbed this Thunder Liquid, she could challenge an even higher realm!

A Supreme-level divine beast with no airs at all was truly unexpected.

Luo Li deliberately glanced at Little Nine Netherbird. She had thought that the other party would turn hostile the moment she succeeded in passing the tribulation.

Now, it seemed that she had judged her with a petty heart.

"Enough nonsense. Hurry up and refine it."

Zhao Chen was already doing his best to maintain the Black God Lightning Clouds. With Little Nine Netherbird's successful tribulation, the clouds would completely disperse.

How much Thunder Liquid they could refine would depend solely on their own abilities.

"Alright."

Seeing that Zhao Chen was safe and sound, Luo Li finally let go of the heavy weight in her heart.

Then, she gently sank into the Thunder Pool and was enveloped by the thick Thunder Liquid.

One person, one bird, and one grass frantically refined the precious Thunder Liquid within the Thunder Pool.

All of their strength rose rapidly.

Across the entire Great Thousand World, many underwent tribulations.

But people like Zhao Chen and the others were nearly nonexistent!

After all, one had to take part in the Thunder Tribulation itself.

The more powerful the participant, the more the Thunder Tribulation's might would rise to that same level.

It could even become stronger still.

Not everyone was like Zhao Chen, able to participate in a Supreme-level Black God Lightning Tribulation with Heaven-reaching Realm cultivation.

As long as they withstood the pressure, they could soar to great heights in a single leap!

A long while later, the Black God Lightning Clouds completely vanished.

The enormous Nine Netherbird spread its wings, blotting out the sky, then flapped away and disappeared beyond the horizon.

Not long afterward, several Supreme Realm experts radiating terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations tore through space and arrived at the scene.

Dean Ta Cang swept his gaze around. There were no signs that the Hundred Thousand Mountains had been damaged by the Thunder Tribulation.

"Strange. The Nine Netherbird's tribulation caused such a huge commotion, yet it didn't inflict massive destruction!"

Even as a Fifth-grade Supreme Realm expert, he could not understand what had happened.

Although Dean Ta Cang and the others had set out as soon as the Black God Lightning Tribulation appeared,

they had feared being caught in it and remained far away, unaware of the exact circumstances.

"Could it have failed?"

Elder Zhu Tian was deeply worried. That was a Nine Netherbird on the verge of becoming a divine beast.

This was of great significance to the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy.

Furthermore, he suspected that the Nine Netherbird stayed by Luo Li's side because the two had formed a contract.

If the Nine Netherbird failed its tribulation and was severely injured or killed, Luo Li would likely be affected as well.

"It didn't."

Dean Ta Cang's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed.

What he could be certain of was that the Nine Netherbird had successfully passed its tribulation.

Spirit Metamorphosis, divine transformation—Nine Netherworld Dark Bird!

"Let's return."

With a casual wave of his hand, he tore open a spatial rift.

Elder Zhu Tian was extremely surprised.

There were no traces at all of destruction from a tribulation at the scene, yet it had succeeded.

Did that mean this Nine Netherbird was even more terrifyingly powerful than they had imagined?

After all, only an exceptionally smooth tribulation would result in such a situation.

Even among Nine Netherbirds, there were differences.

In the Spirit Beast World, Nine Netherbirds were a divine beast race!

Within a clan composed entirely of Nine Netherbirds, there would certainly be exceptional prodigies.

Then the Nine Netherbird Luo Li had obtained must be an exceptional prodigy even within the Nine Netherworld Bird Clan.

At that thought, Elder Zhu Tian smiled.

They could forge ties with the Luo God Clan Luo Li belonged to, while also forming a connection with the Nine Netherworld Bird Clan.

For the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, this was truly a great blessing!

Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, at the core circle of the Seventh-level Spirit Gathering Array. Before a cave residence spanning several hundred miles and containing multiple mountain peaks, Luo Li and An Ran came to a stop.

"My heavens, the academy is so generous! They actually gave you such a massive blessed cave abode!"

An Ran was utterly shocked. As far as she knew, not even Shen Cangsheng, the former first-ranked student on the Heavenly Ranking, had received one.

And this was the core circle of the Seventh-level Spirit Gathering Array!

Cultivating for a single day in a Seventh-level Spirit Gathering Array cost five thousand Spiritual Value. Yet Luo Li's cave residence stood at the very core of the array, enjoying the finest heaven and earth spiritual energy without costing a thing!

"When I returned to the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, I directly succeeded in challenging for first place on the Heavenly Ranking. Thanks to Dean Ta Cang's care, I was given such a cave residence."

Luo Li nodded with a smile. She was quite satisfied with it as well.

At the very least, it was better than the new student residential area.

Although she was the only one living there now, once the new students gradually enrolled, it would become very noisy.

Moreover, the Spirit Gathering Array there was too low-level.

For a Late Heaven-reaching Realm expert like her to obtain any noticeable cultivation effect there would be extremely difficult.

That was right.

Relying on the opportunity within the Thunder Pool during the Black God Lightning Tribulation, Luo Li successfully advanced from the Early Heaven-reaching Realm to the Mid Heaven-reaching Realm.

She also used the thirteen million Spiritual Value she had earned after successfully challenging for first place on the Heavenly Ranking to exchange for another two portions of Northern Sea Dragon Kun Divine Beast Blood Essence.

One portion for her, one portion for him.

With the Northern Sea Dragon Kun Divine Beast Blood Essence, she reached the Late Heaven-reaching Realm.

As for Zhao Chen's cultivation, it was even higher, directly reaching the Sovereign Three Difficulties.

Furthermore, with the help of the Black God Lightning Tribulation, he had completed the Physical Body Difficulty.

The next stage would be the Spiritual Energy Difficulty!

Luo Li felt somewhat emotional. He truly was an extraordinary grass.

If he had not been bold enough to use the Black God Lightning Tribulation for cultivation, he would not have surpassed her in such a short time.

Still, she was not envious.

Thinking of his reckless actions, she could only shake her head in admiration.

"Who would have thought that a newly arrived freshman like you, little sister, could become the strongest student in the entire Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy in barely over a month?"

The prestige of first place on the Heavenly Ranking was beyond doubt!

Anyone who wished to question Luo Li's position would first have to defeat Shen Cangsheng, second place on the Heavenly Ranking.

At present, aside from Luo Li, no one else could defeat Shen Cangsheng.

As for Shen Cangsheng, once he learned that Luo Li had seemingly entered the Heaven-reaching Realm, he should have understood that he was no match for her.

Unless he entered the Heaven-reaching Realm as well, he would have the chance to challenge her.

Of course, that would only give him the chance to stand before Luo Li and issue a challenge.

"I like hearing that."

Luo Li smiled faintly at her words.

Then, with a turn of her right hand, she took out a jade bottle.

"There's Thunder Liquid inside. Getting you to the Transforming Heaven Realm as quickly as possible won't be a problem."

An Ran's eyes widened in disbelief.

Thunder Liquid?

Could it be Thunder Liquid obtained from the Black God Lightning Tribulation?!

Did she really have the right to enjoy Thunder Liquid too!?

"Reporting to my city lord, An Ran is willing to brave fire and water for you!"
