Chapter 205 Five Thunderbolts
Chapter 205 Thunderstruck
Liu Buhui single-handedly fought against five top-ten masters on the Fengyun Ranking, leaving an impression on everyone that can only be described as shocking.
This person is truly too strong, so strong that among all those at the Acupoint Realm, there is no one else who can compare to him.
The five experts in the arena had all opened their seven orifices, with their two spiritual orifices also open, forming their own inner world with a continuous and inexhaustible flow of true energy. Although they had not yet opened the gates of heaven and earth and could not be compared with Liu Buhui and the others, fighting five against one would likely have defeated most of them long ago.
Even Qin Zhongshan, Xue Bahuang, Xiang Boyue and others knew that they absolutely did not have the strength to fight five experts with the Seven Apertures Exquisite Realm on their own.
The Jade Disc Daoist of the Pangu Sect, watching from below, nodded repeatedly: "As expected of the number one figure on the Wind and Cloud Ranking. I never imagined that someone could reach such a level without the true teachings of the Dao Ancestor!"
Of the four major sects of Taoism, apart from the Jade Emperor Sect, the other three sects all received the Taoist lineage from the Three Pure Ones and have always considered themselves the orthodox lineage. Even though Taoist Yu Pan was praising Liu Bu Hui's extraordinary cultivation, his words still carried a hint of arrogance and disdain for those outside the Three Pure Ones lineage.
Hearing this, Xue Bahuang couldn't help but mock, "Master Yupan, why don't you go up and try it out, and see if the divine skill left by your Three Pure Ones is more powerful, or if this Liu Buhui is more powerful?"
Whether he failed to grasp the sarcasm in Xue Bahuang's words or was completely captivated by the scene of the battle, the Jade Pan Daoist's gaze remained fixed on the martial arts arena. He simply shook his head and said, "I think Liu Buhui has almost reached his limit. If I were to go up there, I'm afraid he would have no hope of breaking through to the Dharma Aspect stage today."
Although the Taoist Yu Pan was being somewhat boastful, what he said was true. At this moment, Liu Buhui was fighting five against one. If Yu Pan, who had opened the gate to the mysteries of heaven and earth, were added to the mix, even Liu Buhui would definitely be defeated.
Even if Yu Pan wanted to go up, Marquis Dingyuan, who was watching from the sidelines, would definitely stop him—they invited young masters from all over the world to help Liu Buhui achieve a breakthrough in one step. They would absolutely not allow anyone to sabotage Liu Buhui's breakthrough. Otherwise, they wouldn't have had a top-tier expert like Marquis Dingyuan, who was at the third level of the Dharma Aspect Realm, sitting here to oversee things.
Xue Bahuang turned to Qin Zhongshan on the other side and spoke again: "Brother Qin, don't you want to unify the demonic path and achieve the great feat of becoming the supreme demon emperor? Why don't you go up and have a match with Liu Buhui?"
Qin Zhongshan ignored the provocation in Xue Bahuang's words and snorted coldly, "If I go up there, I'm afraid Liu Buhui will die here!"
Whether it was Qin Zhongshan or Yu Pan, even among the somewhat bored Xue Bahuang, although they all wanted to compete with a master like Liu Buhui, none of them showed any intention of taking action.
They could all see that although Liu Buhui was powerful, he had actually reached his limit. If experts of their caliber were to step in, even Liu Buhui would undoubtedly be defeated.
Just then, Xiang Boyue suddenly spoke up: "I do have the idea of competing with him."
His gaze was fixed intently on Liu Buhui on the martial arts stage, his eyes gleaming with undisguised fighting spirit: "But not now. It seems his ascension to the top today is a natural progression. When I achieve the Dharma Aspect, I will definitely test my skills against this man!"
No sooner had Xiang Boyue finished speaking than Liu Buhui, who was in the audience, burst into laughter and said, "That's great! That's great! Thank you all for your help today! I am indebted to you all!"
As soon as Liu Buhui finished speaking, the other five all stopped and retreated simultaneously—their purpose in coming up today was to help Liu Buhui achieve the Dharma Aspect Realm in one leap. They also wanted to use this opportunity to hone themselves and learn from Liu Buhui's breakthrough, not to fight him to the death.
Everyone could see that Liu Buhui had reached a bottleneck in his power and was probably about to break through. So they all stopped fighting and stepped aside.
After the five men left, Liu Buhui didn't say anything more. Instead, he took a deep breath—he knew he had reached his limit, and whether he succeeded or failed depended entirely on his next gamble.
……
In the sky, countless clouds instantly converged, forming a massive vortex. And at the center of that vortex, directly facing Liu Buhui on the martial arts stage.
A massive amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth surged down from the vortex, rushing towards Liu Buhui's body like a stampede of ten thousand horses.
By absorbing this massive amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth into one's body, one can condense one's own true energy into a Dharma form.
However, Liu Buhui was someone who aspired to achieve instant success, and he would never allow the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to enter his body.
"Get out of here!" Liu Buhui roared suddenly, his voice like thunder, echoing through the sky. At the same time, a layer of true energy barrier appeared around his body, completely isolating him from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surging down from the sky.
Countless streams of spiritual energy from heaven and earth continuously crashed against the true energy barrier surrounding Liu Buhui's body, attempting to enter. However, the true energy barrier firmly kept the spiritual energy from entering Liu Buhui's body.
As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth continued to collide, the true energy barrier around Liu Buhui began to shake constantly, as if it might shatter at any moment.
But Liu Buhui still gritted his teeth and refused to let even a trace of spiritual energy enter his body.
Finally, after continuous impacts, a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth slowly dissipated, as if it were about to give up.
However, Liu Buhui's expression grew increasingly solemn—he knew that whether he could ascend to the heavens in one step and achieve the great deeds of the ancient gods depended on what happened next.
Sure enough, after the spiritual energy of heaven and earth dissipated, it seemed that the heavens had sensed Liu Buhui's provocation. The swirling cloud suddenly changed color, and rolling thunder was brewing within the clouds.
To break through from the Dharma Aspect Realm to the Celestial Realm, one must undergo nine tribulations of lightning to achieve the great feat of becoming a Celestial. Only by passing through these nine tribulations can one truly roam the world freely and attain immortality.
Those who aspire to instant success are also defying the will of Heaven, and the Heavenly Way absolutely forbids such existence.
Those who aspire to instant ascension will incur the wrath of heaven and earth, and will also attract torrential lightning tribulations. Although these tribulations are not as severe as the ninefold lightning tribulations of the Celestial Realm, they are still far beyond the capabilities of ordinary Acupoint Realm experts. Even a typical first-level Dharma Aspect Realm cultivator could perish under these lightning tribulations if they are not careful.
This tribulation of lightning is known to the world as "being struck by five thunderbolts".
At this moment, after Liu Buhui used his true energy to isolate himself from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, his own true energy had been weakened to an extremely weak level. Without the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish his true energy, it can be said that his condition had entered a low point.
What he was about to face was this devastating blow.
