"Brilliant!!"
An elder gave a thumbs-up.
"So much gold brick stone, plus the Lightning-Attracting Needles..." Another elder calculated the expense. "That's no small sum of Spirit Stones. What is he planning to do in the future?"
"Exactly! This young man really doesn't know what takes priority.
Cultivation isn't a one-off deal. What will he do in the future?"
The three elders frowned in unison.
Yun Shu couldn't help shaking her head, either.
"Phew~"
Li Ping'an exhaled.
He circulated his energy and regulated his breathing. His hundred acupoints were open, and the surging in his meridians had eased.
Who knew how much time had passed.
Black clouds pressed down on the city around him, tribulation clouds gathering thickly.
Fierce winds rose, their howling piercing the ears.
They sounded like sobs and weeping, like ghosts wailing and wolves howling.
Here it came!!
One thunderbolt after another had already begun falling like raindrops, blasting the entire night sky a ghastly white.
The tremendous commotion drew quite a few figures from the various peaks.
Old Ox held a brush, recording every detail of the tribulation lightning.
It would make reviewing and summarizing it easier later. Learning brought progress.
A point of light descended from midair.
It grew larger and brighter, until it was blinding.
A tremendous electromagnetic hum came from within it. To Li Ping'an, it felt like a laser cannon poised to fire.
The first bolt of tribulation lightning crashed down.
The Lightning-Attracting Needles arranged around him took effect, dispersing some of its power.
Boom-!!!
The remaining force struck the house built of gold brick stone head-on.
The gold brick stone laid across the top shattered, and a crack seven feet long split the ceiling.
But that was the extent of it.
It really had blocked the first bolt.
"Beautiful!!" Elder Qingfeng cheered,
