I Have A Martial Dao World-Chapter 529 - : Scripture 529
Chapter 529: Scripture 529
Lu Yao, seeking death, found Xu Fu all too willing to accept the challenge through the official channels.
Two powerhouses that subdued their nations were set to determine the victor on the fifth day of May, the Dragon Boat Festival.
Within a few days, the news spread across the world; not only were the citizens of both countries abuzz, but so were the Western powers, who were endlessly discussing the matter.
Many were puzzled—Lu Yao was a whole Martial Path realm behind the Izumo Emperor; what was he risking all for?
Little did they know that he simply wanted to use Blue Star’s inexhaustible pool of wishing power to seize the chance to grasp the mysteries of the Thunder Tribulation.
Afterwards, Lu Yao stopped concerning himself with the chaos of the outside world and devoted himself to secluded cultivation at home, taking advantage of Imperial City’s thunderstorm season.
...
Today, as the sky was overcast with flashes of lightning and peals of thunder, Lu Yao, as usual, ascended the peak and let his Divine Soul travel.
He practiced Lightning Hearing several times, reaping tremendous benefits.

The rolling thunder had slightly altered the structure of his Divine Soul, making it more solid and powerful.
When his soul traveled, it no longer blurred in the wind. Even more intriguingly, Lu Yao could manipulate his Divine Soul to lift his physical body!
At this moment, he was hovering about 10 centimeters above the ground. After a few seconds, he gently landed back down.
“How interesting, after the Divine Soul grows stronger, it can actually lift the physical body,” he mused.
Lu Yao played with this new ability a few times with great interest, but unfortunately, he could only float 10 centimeters off the ground for a few seconds at present.
“It seems that after crossing the Thunder Tribulation, one flies by relying on this. However…”
He looked up at the thunderstorm which was gradually subsiding and could distinctly feel—the benefits from Lightning Hearing were diminishing each time and would soon lose effect!
“Just listening to the sounds on the ground will naturally have limited benefits. To truly transform, one must fly into the midst of the thunder and endure its baptism!”
Lu Yao began to anticipate the upcoming duel—
By battling Xu Fu, he would clarify the mysteries of the Thunder Tribulation Realm and then, utilizing Blue Star’s technological means, rapidly break through!
~~~~~~~~~~
When the thunder had completely ceased, Lu Yao descended the mountain to relax and rest.
His recent cultivation schedule had been packed, and he felt weary and somewhat pressured.
Fortunately, he had a fantastic way to relieve stress~
His ears twitched slightly, picking up sounds from the practice grounds.
Strolling over there, he saw that, as expected, Liao Ya was practicing her boxing.
The beautiful senior sister had been training for a while and was sweating profusely. Her loose practice clothes, damp and clinging to her body, outlined the most perfect curves imaginable—utterly voluptuous and enticing.
Although he had seen it countless times, Lu Yao still couldn’t help but marvel—how could such a creature exist in this world!
Every curve was exaggerated yet combined so perfectly, without the slightest hint of clumsiness.
He watched, his face wearing an appreciative expression, patiently waiting for Liao Ya to finish her routine before he clapped softly and approached: “Senior sister, you look so graceful when you practice~”
Liao Ya was wiping sweat from her forehead when she heard her junior brother’s praise; her smile blossomed like a flower: “You’re here; have you finished your cultivation?”
“Just finished. I heard you over here and came to see.”
As the junior brother walked toward her, Liao Ya’s face reddened.
Sure enough, his hands reached through the loose practice clothes, climbing up and kneading continuously.
Her face flushed, she made no resistance, allowing him to play as he pleased.
Lu Yao took a deep breath and immediately felt as if this sensation was unbeatable; all his stress vanished away.
Moreover, after further experience, he was also able to use his tactile sense to accurately judge her physical condition, reminding her, “Senior sister, your period is coming soon.”
Liao Ya glared at her junior brother with a flushed face, obviously having hit the mark.
Lu Yao chuckled, “I’ve gotten experienced at noticing it.”
“Look at you~” retorted Liao Ya, poking at him with her snow-white fingers that carried a sweet scent of sweat.
For martial artists at this stage, sweating was actually part of their body refinement process, continuously purging useless substances.
Looking at her, dripping in sweat, Lu Yao remarked, “You train so diligently every day, never failing to come to the practice field. This is truly hard work.”
Liao Ya brushed a dry leaf off her junior brother’s shoulder, her voice soft, “Senior sister can’t fall too far behind you; I want to stand by your side in battle one day!”
Her voice was gentle, her expression firm, but it didn’t last long—her junior brother’s hand was becoming increasingly inappropriate, making her feel odd.
Unable to resist, Liao Ya struggled and scolded with feigned annoyance, “Stop it! Take your hand out~”
Lu Yao withdrew his hand, laughing, “Then I want to see senior sister dance~”
Liao Ya gave in with an expression that said, “I can’t deal with you,” as he picked her up sideways.
The Sect Leader’s senior disciple sister rested her head in the embrace of a close fellow sect member, and even before entering the room, the scent of Orchid Fragrance had already begun to waft through the air.
~~~~~~~~~
As the Dragon Boat Festival approached, several high-ranking officials in the court grew restless.
Although they were well aware that Lu Yao must have something to rely on, the battle at hand was of such great importance, it could be said to determine the overall situation of the world.
If anything were to happen to Lu Yao, Izumo would inevitably set its sights on the Divine Land.
Therefore, Zhang Wenda, as the leading official, took the Prime Minister to pay a visit. It was not for anything else but to seek a dose of reassurance.
In nearly five months since becoming the Prime Minister, Zhang Wenda had become deeply immersed in his role.
The New Dynasty was thriving and united in purpose, offering him a perfect stage with no restraints on his ambition!
In a lifetime, one seeks nothing but fame and fortune.
Zhang Wenda, already a Great Grandmaster, was aspiring to leave a significant mark in history.
Therefore, he actually disapproved of Lu Yao’s risk-taking.
Taking Pyongyang and preventing Izumo from invading the Divine Land by land was already enough, so why provoke the Izumo Emperor?
With a thousand thoughts running through his mind, he soon met with Lu Yao.
“How could I trouble two Great Grandmasters to visit in person? It is my fault,” Lu Yao said.
With one glance, Zhang Wenda could see that this young man was elegant and poised, possessing a rare tranquility before a great battle.
Knowing his temperament, Zhang Wenda skipped the pleasantries, bowed, and spoke directly, “My lord, with the Dragon Boat Festival upon us, the whole court is anxious. You must be cautious and ensure that nothing goes awry!”
The Prime Minister also spoke, “Your steadiness in challenging the Izumo Emperor must surely have been calculated. However, the Emperor’s strength is unfathomable and he is extremely shrewd; you really need to be cautious.”
Lu Yao laughed and said, “You’re no strangers, so I’ll speak frankly—we have no chance of victory in this battle.”
At these words, Zhang Wenda’s expression changed, and his heart tightened… The Prime Minister, however, showed no extreme reaction and listened patiently.
Lu Yao continued, “I need to undergo the Crossing Thunder Tribulation and seek through real combat a reference from this Emperor. You two can rest assured that I cannot win this battle, but I also most certainly will not lose.”
This statement was laden with information.
Zhang Wenda was first shocked, “You’re going to undergo Thunder Tribulation!? Wasn’t your Divine Manifestation just last year? Is advancing in Spirit Refinement that easy?”
Then it dawned on him, “The Izumo Emperor is in the Thunder Tribulation Realm? I thought he was only at the Divine Manifestation level…”
He did not know the Emperor was Xu Fu, and under a series of shocks, he actually lost his composure.
The Prime Minister, aware of this, was not surprised and expressed understanding of Lu Yao’s plan:
“To break through, indeed, requires a reference. I wish you a smooth journey!”
“Thank you for your auspicious words, Prime Minister,” Lu Yao replied with a fist salute and a smile. “Once I make my breakthrough, I’ll definitely resolve the hidden issue within you.”
“There’s no need to trouble yourself with this; I have no regrets in this life,” the Prime Minister answered.
After a few words of casual conversation, the Prime Minister stood and said, “Then you focus on preparing, and we will not disturb you further.”
With that, he was about to leave with Zhang Wenda, who was still in shock.
“Then I shan’t keep you,” Lu Yao said. “By the way, here are some Elixirs for cultivation, intended as rewards for the soldiers going off to war in a few days. You might want to try them and decide on a distribution plan.”
He handed over two jars of the “Ten-Complete Immortal Pill” to the two of them.
~~~~~~~~
After descending the mountain, Zhang Wenda had regained his composure, but a fire was burning inside him.
“Thunder Tribulation Realm! It is actually the Thunder Tribulation Realm!”
The leap in strength from Spirit Refinement to Thunder Tribulation is significant but secondary; this is an extremely important “producer”!
Not only could it craft Magical Treasures and Immortal Pills, it could even change one’s constitution and defy fate, with endless mysteries.
All of the scriptures extolled this realm greatly, but sadly, none had reached it in the Divine Land for over a thousand years.
And if the Great Yi Dynasty had such an Immortal to support it, what great benefits would it bring to people like himself!
After calming his heart a bit, Zhang Wenda scooped a handful of Elixirs from the jar and swallowed them, then said to the Prime Minister:
“How is the Izumo Emperor in the Thunder Tribulation… ”
But before he could finish, intense True Qi burst from all seven apertures of his body.
“Such a potent effect of the medicine!”
“Is the lord really planning to bestow this on the Military Soldiers?”
