Stop pretending, I'm a security guard, a five-star general!

Looking at the restored Muteng Mountain, the originally rumbling dark clouds suddenly paused for a moment, as if they were stunned.

The next moment, a thunderclap several times louder than before instantly resounded throughout the entire world!

Rumble——! !

Heaven was clearly angered.

He cannot accept anyone passing through tribulation through such cheating!

Thunder, give it your all and blast it down!

The next moment, a bolt of lightning, more than ten times thicker than the first bolt, crashed down.

boom!

The heavens and earth trembled violently once again!

Within the mountain range stretching for hundreds of miles, all kinds of beasts knelt on the ground, their faces filled with terror.

The power of this second bolt of heavenly lightning was indeed terrifying.

This time, they actually blasted through the entire peak and mountainside of Muteng Mountain.

Unfortunately, it still didn't reach the very bottom.

Qin Yu took out a pre-prepared celestial-grade spirit-restoring pill, popped one into his mouth, and restored his spiritual power.

next moment,

He then used his spiritual power to restore the blown-up Wooden Vine Mountain to its original state.

Seeing this, Heaven laughed.

Laughed angrily.

He felt insulted, and he had ample evidence to prove it.

Okay, okay, let’s play like this, right?

With a wave of his hand, Heaven sent down three bolts of lightning simultaneously.

This is the treatment only those who have transcended the tribulation from Martial Venerable to Martial Saint receive.

But today, I'll let you have a taste!

Three imposing thunder dragons descended from the sky, carrying boundless thunderous energy, as if they were about to completely devour this area, crashing down simultaneously.

Boom boom boom——! !

……

At this moment, inside a temple hundreds of kilometers away from this mountain range.

A temple abbot, dressed in a kasaya and sitting cross-legged on a futon, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the distant sky in shock.

"This is... three thousand bolts of lightning!?"

At that moment, the abbot was filled with shock and disbelief.

Three thousand bolts of lightning—this is a tribulation lightning that one only experiences when breaking through to the Martial Saint realm!

Could it be that after a thousand years, a second Martial Saint is about to be born, following the founding emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty?

The abbot gazed devoutly at the distant sky, his hands slightly clasped together.

"Amitabha Buddha, it seems that a great era is about to begin..."

……

Under the terrifying destructive power of the three-headed thunder dragon, the majestic and massive Wood Vine Mountain was instantly blasted flat.

Not only Muteng Mountain, but also the surrounding mountain ranges stretching for hundreds of miles were all devastated and razed to the ground.

Qin Yu, who was hiding at the bottom of Muteng Mountain, also did not escape the disaster.

At this moment, his entire body was charred black by the lightning, and crimson blood mixed with charred pieces of meat fell from his body. In many places, the white bones hidden inside his body were even faintly visible.

As the camera panned upwards, an even more shocking scene unfolded.

Qin Yu's upper face had been blown away, leaving only the lower half.

To be more precise, all that's left is a mouth.

Upon closer inspection, the mouth seemed to be still moving, and a soft murmur, barely audible, slowly escaped from it.

"You dog, you...you have no martial ethics..."

As soon as he finished speaking, his lips slowly closed, and his body completely lost its vitality.

The Heavenly Dao above seemed extremely satisfied with this scene, drawing a smiling rainbow in the sky directly above Qin Yu's corpse.

It seemed as if it was mocking Qin Yu's overestimation of his abilities.

Then, the Heavenly Dao departed with its will fulfilled, and the large swath of dark clouds dissipated, restoring the peaceful blue sky once more.

However, the moment after the Heavenly Dao left, the mouth on Qin Yu's corpse, which had been motionless, suddenly curled up into a slight arc.

The next moment, Qin Yu's body suddenly emitted a soft green light, and where the green light shone, his injuries were healing at an astonishing speed visible to the naked eye.

His face was blown apart, leaving only his mouth.

But only a moment later

A nose appeared.

Then came the eyes, the eyebrows, and finally, a head of beautiful black hair…

The green light flashed for about two and a half hours.

Finally, a perfectly intact body emerged.

Qin Yu suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils shooting out a sharp light. His dark pupils seemed to contain a vast world, deep and dazzling.

Qin Yu sat up, grinned, and raised his middle finger towards the sky:

"Silly dog, Heavenly Dao, just kidding!"

"You don't actually think you can blow me up with those few small grenades, do you?"

"No way? No way?"

Heaven's Way: ? ? ?

Qin Yu stretched comfortably. Ever since his talent advanced to SSS level, he now possessed almost immortal abilities.

As long as I have a breath left, no matter how badly I am injured, I will never die!

Therefore, this is why he remained completely calm during his tribulation.

However, he originally thought that the wooden vines he released would be able to protect him from the lightning tribulation, but he did not expect that the Heavenly Dao would not be kind to martial virtue and would directly use the heavenly lightning of the Martial Saint Tribulation on him.

Fortunately, he was more skilled and managed to get away with it.

Qin Yu smiled broadly as he carefully examined his body and discovered that he had officially advanced to the Martial Venerable Realm!

Moreover, the tribulation lightning he experienced was the three thousand lightning bolts that only occur when breaking through to the Martial Saint realm.

This makes his current body several times stronger than that of an ordinary Martial Venerable.

Upon closer inspection, Qin Yu could even see the blood flowing through his body shimmering with a faint golden light, radiating a vast and majestic aura.

"Cool--!!"

Qin Yu excitedly punched the sky several times.

With his current strength,

Aside from those old monsters, he can basically roam freely all over the country!

……

The capital city, the Ancestral Dragon Palace, the Imperial Study.

The Great Xia Emperor, who was leaning back in his sandalwood chair and dozing off, suddenly opened his eyes, a look of surprise flashing across them.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Upon seeing this, Wei Lixian, who was standing nearby, quickly bowed and stepped forward to inquire.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly feel a little uncomfortable."

"Your Majesty, you have been working too hard lately, which may have taken a toll on your health. Why don't you go to bed and rest?"

"It's alright." The Great Xia Emperor waved his hand. "Have you seen any trace of Yin Hu lately?"

Wei Lixian shook his head:

"Your Majesty, there is currently no news about him."

"I can't sleep or eat in peace until I capture this guy and get to the bottom of things." The Emperor of Great Xia tapped his fingers on the table, his brows furrowed.

Looks like I'll have to ask that guy.

The Emperor of Great Xia narrowed his eyes slightly, and with a wave of his hand, he signaled Wei Lixian to leave.

After Wei Lixian left, the Great Xia Emperor got up and went to the bookshelf behind him, took out a classic book, and slowly opened it. A wisp of black energy slowly spread out from it.

However, at that moment, Wei Lixian suddenly turned back in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, we have news!"

The Great Xia Emperor swiftly closed the book in his hand, flicked it back to its original position on the bookshelf, then turned and looked at Wei Lixian with an indifferent expression:

"Is there any news about the Tiger?"

“That’s right.” Wei Lixian quickly replied, “According to reports from the front lines, just half an hour ago, the Divine Officer Yin Hu descended upon the Shanhe Pass battlefield in the Northwest.”

"Alright! Have Yang Yadong set off immediately!" The Great Xia Emperor swiftly issued the order, but seeing Wei Lixian still standing there, he frowned slightly.

"What are you standing there for? Go!"

Wei Lixian hesitated for a moment before speaking:

"Your Majesty, it's not just Tiger Yin. On other border passes and battlefields, the divine officials Pig Hai, Monkey Shen, and Horse Wu have appeared in succession. Like Tiger Yin, they are all assisting the local human guards in slaughtering the demon beasts."

Emperor of Great Xia: ? ? ?
