Chapter 286: Raging Sky Flood Dragon

Finally, in [Year 139], Li Wei opened his eyes, coming out of his closed-door cultivation. Beside him, Li Yaotie was still forging, and nearby was a mold that closely resembled Li Yaotie's left foot.

This time, however, it wasn't because he had comprehended any laws.

A flash of joy passed across his face.

"It's done!"

[The Ancestor Hall Guardian Beast passed the heavenly tribulation in Coldstone Valley! As a Thunder Flame Fury Python, it possessed the power of thunder and fire, which are mutually destructive. When the heavenly tribulation descended, the force of the heavenly and earthly punishment was even more severe. Under the collision of thunder and fire, it nearly died several times, but this also turned out to be a blessing in disguise.]

[The Thunderfire Wyrm transformed into a — Raging Sky Flood Dragon.]

[It can channel the Heaven and Earth Qi into its body. Wherever it goes, thunder and fire roar in unison, creating powerful explosions.]

[The supreme-grade spirit artifact 'Sky-Controlling Pearl' gifted by the family shattered and fused with its body, becoming its Intrinsic (life-bound) Flood Dragon Core!]

[Under the collision of thunder and fire, it gave up the opportunity to transform into human form, preserving its spiritual power to sustain itself. It obtained a second form: the Mist Flood Dragon.]

[The collision of thunder and fire transformed into mist, making its whereabouts difficult to track.]

However, after seeing the description in the interface, Li Wei still frowned. He could sense how difficult this breakthrough had been.

He didn't dare to delay and quickly had the clan members go to provide assistance.

...

At this moment, The once Coldstone Valley, which used to have thick layers of icy dust, now saw the ice that had formed over countless years cracking and melting. Rocks tumbled down all around Coldstone Valley, and a gigantic red flood dragon lay amidst the rubble!

Around it were numerous members of the Wu Clan. Above, black energy erupted, and the pressure from the battle of Nascent Soul stage cultivators made the air below, for an unknown number of meters, feel heavy and oppressive.

This time, four or five members of the Li family had come to stand guard, including Li Yaoqing and Li Dalong's Heavenly Corpse, Xuan Tianzi. But unexpectedly, in such a secluded place, they encountered a Wu Clan detachment of about a thousand people who were on a mission!

The Raging Sky Flood Dragon's eyelids drooped heavily.

It had experienced the most terrifying danger, the heavenly tribulation of transforming into a flood dragon. Even with a supreme-grade spirit artifact and this excellent location for undergoing the tribulation, it was still difficult to face. The thunder tribulation had nine as its extreme number, and it had endured a full six nines of heavenly lightning!

It had not a bit of strength left.

It couldn't even resist these ant-like members of the Wu Clan! But likewise, these guys shouldn't even dream of killing it!

"Kuanghua... Kuanghua..."

The Raging Sky Flood Dragon's vision was blurred, but it could still see that everyone was fighting. And in front of it, a girl with her hair tied up in buns like a Vajra warrior, was standing in front of it, shielding it. She repeatedly charged at the approaching Wu Clan members, only to be beaten back by them.

Time and time again she was covered in wounds, yet she still charged forward again and again.

"None of you motherfuckers... are getting through!!!"

Li Kuanghua wiped the blood from her mouth, looking like a woman possessed!

She stood firmly in front of the guardian spirit beast, shielding it with her body. Her body had become even more robust, and the power of the Ice Rock made her physique seem like ice.

No matter who it was, anyone who approached the guardian spirit beast would be met with her ultimate power!

In the space of five finger snaps, her arm was broken.

In the space of twenty finger snaps, she could feel her ribs break.

But she still staggered on in battle, until the sound of a sword's cry rang out, and she returned to her original form. The Grand Elder tossed a medicinal pill into her mouth, and a warm current flowed through her body, healing her injuries. She was carried to the flood dragon's side, and she faintly heard the Grand Elder telling her to rest.

Li Kuanghua wanted to get up, she wanted to continue fighting, but she had no strength left.

She remembered Grandpa Yunbing asking her why she worked so hard at cultivation. She had said that she didn't want to be bullied anymore. Now, she realized that she didn't want her family to be bullied.

She looked up at the sky helplessly, as if seeing the scene in the Thunderfire Demon Cave again. Back then, behind her and her older brother, there was always a useless younger brother running, who needed help to get up and keep running. The useless younger brother would be tormented by the demon cultivators every day. Even when they were with the elders, her younger brother was always the one dragging them down.

If time could flow backward, she wished she could return to the past. That way, her younger brother wouldn't have to grow up, wouldn't have to become some damned family head!

These past few years, her younger brother had become like a withered plant, no longer daring to face his family, just like a true coward.

She didn't believe it. She wanted to prove...

The Raging Sky Flood Dragon closed its heavy eyes. Its blood flowed onto Li Kuanghua's body.

Li Kuanghua suddenly stood up, her body once again bulging with muscles, covered in a layer of ice and rock. She charged towards the Wu Clan again madly!

"Great-granduncle, Second Great-grandaunt!"

Li Kuanghua roared, "Every time Kuangtu fell, he would get back up! He was afraid of demon cultivators, but he always mustered his courage to approach them. He worked very hard. Every single time, he tried to keep up with our pace."

"He's just like me. No matter what happens, he will stand by our side, or even in front of us!"

"Believe me... believe me!!!"

That furious roar, that terrifying punch, with a shockwave extending a hundred meters, one Wu Clan member after another fell.

High up in the sky, Li Yaozu and Li Yaoqing frowned, exchanging a look.

They could both see that this child didn't need to be so battered and bruised. But it was as if she were crazed, trying to prove something, choosing the toughest opponents, and venting her emotions.

Li Yaozu descended once more, intending to carry Li Kuanghua to the Raging Sky Flood Dragon, but Li Kuanghua grabbed his wrist tightly. The junior's eyes were bloodshot, staring fixedly at him, but Li Yaozu could sense that she was probably already delirious. Yet she still choked out between sobs, "Kuangtu is not a coward..."

Until she fainted.
