"Liu Naiweng, for your selfish desires, for your own ascension, you have killed billions of lives in the Lei Feng Realm, annihilated your own family, and murdered all your clansmen. Among them were your descendants. You..."
"I regret nothing."
Before Wan Lei could finish, Liu Naiweng replied directly.
"What is there to regret? What do the lives of people from other families have to do with me? As for the Liu family, people are born, grow old, get sick, and die. They will die sooner or later. Instead of dying meaninglessly, they might as well become a part of me, helping me to ascend.
Their will is with me. As long as I am not dead, the Liu family will exist forever.
My lifespan was nearing its end before, but now it's different. I have already become an immortal. Ten thousand years is the end of a lifespan in the mortal realm, but in the immortal realm, I am still very young.
If I take a few more wives, dozens of concubines, and have hundreds of children, my descendants will be endless. In less than a thousand years, the Liu family will have hundreds of thousands, even millions, of clansmen, and will still be a great family.
Moreover, every clansman will be my direct descendant, and I will be the undisputed ancestral patriarch.
At that time, the Liu family will be an immortal realm family, the foremost great family in the Lei Feng Realm. What so-called families like the Fang family or the Huo family can compare to the Liu family?
No, it is difficult to ascend even in the small Lei Feng Realm. If they stay here, my descendants will still find it hard to ascend.
I want to go to the immortal realm. I believe that even in the immortal realm, immortals are powerful figures. I want my bloodline to spread its branches and leaves in the immortal realm, so that countless descendants of mine can also ascend. Only then will the Liu family be truly prosperous.
The previous Liu family was too weak compared to what it will be. Their sacrifice is for the future strength of the Liu family. I believe this is what they would have wanted."
"What a madman."
Wan Lei gritted his teeth.
To sacrifice others to fulfill oneself, and yet to speak of it so righteously, to deceive others with grand pronouncements and to hypnotize oneself. Such a person truly deserves eternal damnation.
Boom!!!
A bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking Liu Naiweng directly.
The lightning carried with it a world-destroying might as it struck downwards.
Liu Naiweng's hands were covered in blood mist, forming a shield that clashed with the lightning, causing both to dissipate.
Gouzi poked its head out from the hammer, gazed at Liu Naiweng for a moment, and said,
"If I were Liu Naiweng, at this moment, I would quickly run and find a deserted place to undergo my immortal tribulation."
"Why? He's already an immortal. We can't defeat him."
"Put away that thought of 'we can't defeat him.' How will you know if you can't defeat him without a fight?
Those immortals from the past could suppress immortals in a small plane while they were still undergoing tribulation. If they could do it, why can't you?
The immortal tribulation is extremely dangerous. Even in the immortal realm, countless people die under the immortal tribulation every year. The threshold between mortal and immortal is not easily crossed.
Do you think Liu Naiweng doesn't want to kill you? Why else would he be chatting with you? It's all to stall until he successfully passes his tribulation.
The greatest fear during tribulation is interference. A single mistake can lead to eternal damnation and the annihilation of one's soul.
The first wave of the immortal tribulation is the lightning tribulation, which tempers the physical body with lightning. If you can't withstand it, you die. If you can, you move towards the second hurdle.
The second wave is the gale tribulation, formless and intangible, impossible to block, only to endure.
He has only broken through to the immortal realm in terms of cultivation. His spiritual energy has not yet transformed into immortal energy. Only by passing the first two immortal tribulations, when his spiritual energy transforms into immortal energy, can he truly be considered an immortal.
But it's not over yet. There's still the third wave, the soul tribulation. This tribulation is the most perilous, targeting the soul. Most people die in this tribulation.
After passing the soul tribulation, the soul transforms into a soul of immortality, and only then is one truly a complete immortal, thereafter enjoying great freedom and ease.
By then, you truly won't be able to defeat him.
Now, what you need to do is to kill him while he is still undergoing his immortal tribulation, by forcefully confronting him during the tribulation. This is your only chance!"
After speaking, Gouzi burrowed back into the Thor's Hammer, preparing for battle. It had transformed into the Origin Lightning, illuminating Wan Lei's ninth rune.
Wan Lei's gaze was solemn, his expression grave, his resolve firm.
"Wife, it's time for us to fight to the death."
"I am ready. If Liu Naiweng survives this, not a single person behind us will live, and neither will we. Let's fight with all our might."
Fang Xiaoyu donned her armor, holding her twin swords, with gale winds already swirling around her.
Wan Lei turned and shouted, "All members of the Thunder Emperor Alliance, hear my order! No one is to participate. Retreat immediately, as far as possible!"
After speaking, Wan Lei also donned his armor, with lightning crackling around his Thor's Hammer.
"Let's go."
Wan Lei and Fang Xiaoyu charged forward fiercely.
"Oh? So eager to court death? In that case, I shall simply crush you."
Liu Naiweng smiled slightly.
Before Wan Lei and Fang Xiaoyu could even charge forward, the Blood Demon Technique was unleashed. Facing Liu Naiweng, they had no hope of victory and could only rely on their divine abilities to weaken him, hoping to find a sliver of survival by leveraging the immortal tribulation.
The Lightning Sea Domain was released, enveloping the entire northern area of the Liu family in lightning, with Liu Naiweng also within its confines.
However, this Lightning Sea Domain could not inflict any damage on Liu Naiweng.
Wan Lei's speed was extremely fast, transforming into lightning, he swung the hammer towards Liu Naiweng's face.
However, Liu Naiweng's speed was even faster. He accurately predicted Wan Lei's trajectory and unleashed a palm strike, sending Wan Lei flying backwards.
At this moment, Fang Xiaoyu also closed in, but Liu Naiweng stood his ground, simply extending another palm, which sent Fang Xiaoyu flying as well.
The two fell heavily to the ground, one after the other, eliciting gasps from the crowd behind them.
They had not heeded Wan Lei's order to retreat but had remained.
Even if they couldn't help much, they could at least watch them fight, so they wouldn't feel so alone.
Everyone in the Thunder Emperor Alliance knew that if Wan Lei and Fang Xiaoyu won today, everything would be fine, and they would all survive.
If Liu Naiweng won, their escape would be useless. Never underestimate an expert in the immortal realm; they were beings who could crush everything in the Lei Feng Realm.
Even if Liu Naiweng was too lazy to search for them, could their supporting forces escape?
The Yin Yang Sect, the Kui Lian Sect, the Fang family, and the Thunder Emperor Hall would all be annihilated as a result.
Liu Naiweng flew over quickly, intending to pursue Wan Lei and Fang Xiaoyu, but at this moment, the second wave of the immortal tribulation arrived.
In the sky, dozens of lightning bolts divided into three waves, striking towards Liu Naiweng, Wan Lei, and Fang Xiaoyu.
Under the immortal tribulation, the number of people present is counted. It will never allow others to assist in the tribulation.
