Chapter 494: Crossing the Tribulation
Brook took the Hot-Blooded Dao Fan and took a look, and sure enough, it came with the Heaven-Splitting Skill!
"Thank you, Master!"
"You're welcome. I've gained a lot of insights from studying your Heavenly Sword and Hot-Blooded Dao Fan. The purple gold ore you gave me will also be of great use to me."
"I would also like to ask, can the Yitian Pitian skill on this Hot Blood Dao fan be transferred to other weapons? For example, my True Dragon Feather Fan?" Brook asked.
"Sure. It only takes a week and 7 more pieces of purple gold ore." Cheng Nan said.
"That's good! I'm just asking first. There's no need to move for now. I'll come to you for help when I have better weapons."
The Hot-Blooded Dao Fan was a rank 6 weapon, and now that Brook had reached rank 7, he'd switched to the True Dragon Feather Fan. The base stats of the two weapons only differed by a few dozen points, the biggest difference being that the Hot-Blooded Dao Fan increased Magic Attack by 3%, while the True Dragon Feather Fan increased it by 5%. A two-percentage-point difference between the two weapons wasn't a huge deal. Brook wasn't too lazy to wait another week; he'd wait until he had a better weapon.
After bidding farewell to Cheng Nan, the two went together to meet Tianzun and Tiger Guard Zhengnan of Bairimen, Tianhong Mage of Cangyue Island, and Lunwuzun of Taoyuanmen, and then returned to the Shenlong Empire.
※※※※※※※
On the east side of the imperial city are the three major families. Brooke and Bayin arrived at the gate of the Tuoba family mansion and stood there.
"Bayin, Brook, we are here to return the artifact paralyzing ring!" Brook shouted loudly.
A paralysis ring?! The monks guarding the gate panicked, rushing to inform the others inside while warmly inviting Brook and the other man to come in and take a seat. Brook and the other man just stood there quietly.
After a while, an old acquaintance ran out from the door.
"Tuoba Shi greets the Dragon Knight Bayinbuluke!" Tuoba Shi said respectfully, "The clan leader has gone to the Warcraft battlefield and hasn't returned yet. Second Master happened to be out on business. I've already sent a message to Second Master, and he should be back soon. You two might as well go in and have some hot tea and wait for a moment."
When Brook handed the paralysis ring to Tuoba, he said:
"No need for that. We still have some things to do, so it's the same if we hand it over to Brother Tuoba. Please tell Senior Tuoba Hongfei: the artifact has been returned to its original owner, and the 200 million is no longer needed. I hope something like this won't happen again."
"...Yes! I will definitely pass on the message!"
"Brother Tuoba, goodbye!"
The two returned to the Shenlong Empire Square, and Brook said to Bayin:
"Wait for my news."
"kindness."
Brook walked towards the transporter and disappeared with a whoosh.
Wolong Villa, I haven't been here for a long time. As soon as Brook appeared, the people of Wolong Villa around the square were as if they were facing a great enemy and immediately drew their weapons.
This is a safe zone; no attack can be launched unless the seal is lifted. But from these people's reactions, one can see Wolong Villa's attitude towards Brook. It seems Xiao Renlong has suffered a great loss, but still hasn't made any progress.
The light seemed dim. Brooke looked up at the sky. It had been clear and sunny just now in the Dragon Empire, but why was there a huge dark cloud overhead at Wolong Villa? The Dragon Empire floated high in the sky, with the sea of clouds at the foot of the empire's continent, but it was rare to see clouds drifting above.
Brooke withdrew his gaze. In a short while, hundreds of people from Wolong Villa had gathered around.
Brooke ignored them and walked straight towards the back of Wolong Villa. The dark clouds above seemed to slowly descend with Brooke's footsteps, and the light grew dimmer and dimmer.
"Xiao Renlong, I'm here! Are the 1000 pieces of imperial tomb ore that we promised you are ready? I'm here to get them now!" Brook's voice was not loud, but it spread far away.
Just as he walked out of the safe zone, the Lightning Sky-Destroying Fire Talisman and the Bloodthirsty Ice Roar came crashing down on him, creating a bright spot.
The light dissipated, and Brook was unharmed.
"This is a personal grudge between me and Xiao Renlong. Since you can't break my defense, you might as well disperse." Brook continued to move forward.
Everyone looked at each other, and their hands holding weapons slowly dropped.
"Don't be afraid of him! Taoist priests use poison, mages use fire walls, and warriors use assassination! Give me...ah~" someone in the crowd shouted, but before he could finish his words, he let out a scream and fell to the ground and died.
Brook appeared beside him. The man lying on the ground was a rank 7 Taoist priest, a true master, but he couldn't withstand a single attack from Brook. Even with the protective shield, he was still killed instantly at full health.
The people around looked at Brook in horror!
Brook glared and shouted, "Why don't you leave?! Isn't it better to keep your life to fight against the monster?"
Go! Go! This Brook is too strong! This is not a battle they can participate in!
The people around dispersed.
Brook also stopped and looked straight ahead. Through the dim air, he met a pair of sinister gazes.
Xiao Renlong was laughing.
He looked at the powerful Brook and laughed sarcastically.
You are indeed very strong. But you didn't come earlier or later, but at this time! You came at the perfect time!
The dark clouds in the sky suddenly pressed down again, and the surroundings became pitch black, and the day completely turned into night!
Brook couldn't help but look up. Suddenly, the dark clouds emitted a dazzling white light!
"Stab it~~"
Nine thunderbolts struck simultaneously, all landing on a peak to the right of Wolong Villa. Brook had never been to that place before, because it was a forbidden area of Wolong Villa!
There was a loud rumbling sound above my head, and the dark clouds above seemed to be very close, rolling and surging. The sky seemed to be collapsing, as if the end of the world was coming!
"Stab it~~"
This time there were six bolts, but the lightning was noticeably brighter and thicker than before, and all of them still struck the forbidden area on the mountain peak. It was as if some forbidden thing was about to be born there, and the heavens were jealous and angry!
"Stab it~~"
Only three bolts of lightning remained, but they were as thick as buckets! The rubble rolled and the mountain peaks shook slightly.
The thunder and lightning finally stopped temporarily, but the dark clouds still did not dissipate. Instead, they began to spin, spinning faster and faster, as if they were accumulating all their energy.
Xiao Renlong looked extremely nervous. Brook's eyes narrowed as well.
The entire dark cloud has become an inverted vortex!
"Sizzle~~"
A massive lightning column, over three yards wide, shot out from the center of the vortex, illuminating the forbidden mountain area like daylight! The entire Wolong Villa was shaking violently!
After several seconds, the lightning column finally stopped, and the swirling dark clouds also dissipated. In less than half a minute, it completely disappeared. The sky was clear and cloudless, and it seemed as if everything that had just happened had never happened.
Brook looked at the forbidden area on the mountain and had some vague guesses in his mind.
Xiao Renfeng is going through a tribulation! The fourth level of the Five Elements Tribulation!
I don't know if she succeeded.
Brook turned his gaze to Xiao Renlong opposite him.
Xiao Renlong was also looking at him. The corners of his mouth curled up, and he finally couldn't help laughing wildly!
"Hahahaha~ Brook, I'll give you one last chance! Hand over the resurrection ring! Also the teleportation ring, the invisibility ring, the skill necklace, the detection necklace, and the prehistoric shield! Hand over all your equipment! I can grant you immortality! Otherwise, you! Bayin! And everyone in the Wenren family will all die!"
