Lu Zheng's thoughts shifted and crimson Vermillion True Flame took ablaze all over his body.
The Vermillion True Flame covered his body like a robe of fire. Golden runes that contained the profundities of fire path danced in it.
"Pzoom!"
Another bolt of lightning struck Lu Zheng but he did not feel its effects in the least bit.
Flame Cloak was as strong as ever.
The tribulation lightning was unyielding. More bolts of blue lightning struck Lu Zheng's body.
After what seemed like forever, the lightning bolts stopped as thunder rumbled in the dark clouds.
Lu Zheng sat cross-legged with Flame Cloak covering him from head to toe.
Many parts of Flame Cloak had broken off and the Vermillion True Flame that made it up shimmered weakly.
It was clear that the bloodline ability was at its last legs.
In the sky, bolts of blue lightning gathered together and became a huge bird of prey.
The bird had blue feathers and blue lightning coiled around its body. Whenever it flapped its wings, thunder would shake the sky.
Lu Zheng gazed at it as bloodline power poured from his blood vessels.
Flame Cloak became whole again.
"Haa!" The lightning bird screeched and flapped its wings. Its speed was many times greater than Kyle's.
The lightning bird encircled Lu Zheng thrice before opening its black beak.
Blue lightning rolled from its throat and condensed into a single point. Immediately, the tiny ball of lightning dropped on Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng paid it no attention and focused his mind on defending.
Thunder boomed underneath his skin and wind currents swirled beneath Flame Cloak's protective layer.
This was Lu Zheng's absolute defence.
The moment the ball of lightning came in contact with Lu Zheng, it exploded soundlessly.
Lightning assaulted Lu Zheng, electrocuting him with currents far beyond a human's capabilities.
~Endure!~
Lu Zheng gritted his teeth in pain as the lightning continued to assault him.
After what seemed like forever, the lightning dissipated and the dark clouds cleared.
The tribulation was finally over!
Lu Zheng was still sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
A complex expression was plastered on his face.
He felt like he was a lightning bird, soaring freely through the skies and hunting other animals.
He could summon lightning natural from the heavens and control them expertly. He was like the incarnation of a lightning god.
After some time, the vision ended but Lu Zheng noticed that there was something else.
He felt like he was a hundred thousand year old block of ice, containing millions of ice path dao imprints.
Anything that came in contact with him froze and even the space around him was frozen.
He could freeze even the world itself!
Lu Zheng opened his eyes and let out a misty breath of air.
~That was lightning path and ice path profound meaning~
Lu Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cuss.
He was still wondering how he could rid himself of the ice path dao imprints on his body and now he had gained ice path profound meaning.
It was like the Heavenly Dao wanted him to become an ice path martial practitioner.
He only shook his head and sent his soul consciousness over his body.
After the tribulation, Lu Zheng had ninety two fire path, lightning path and ice path dao imprints.
His space path dao imprints had also risen to twenty four.
The most were naturally the wind path dao imprints. He had two hundred and ninety two of them. Of course, he could only use ninety two.
They were from the wind path inheritance from the layered realm.
Altogether, Lu Zheng had five hundred and ninety two dao imprints on his body.
Not even an ordinary Extent realm expert could compare to him.
Naturally, Extent realm experts had at least two hundred and ninety two dao imprints of a specific path while Lu Zheng's dao imprints were scattered over four paths.
He couldn't compare to an Extent realm expert in that regard.
Lu Zheng only sighed. If he met an enemy Extent realm expert now, he would only run for his dear life.
The difference in battle strength was too great.
~One day, Long Aotian, I will surpass you and exact my revenge!~
Lu Zheng's gaze shifted to the sword half buried in ice beside him.
A thought crossed Lu Zheng's mind and he picked it up.
Then, something else happened.
