Chapter 2171: Chapter 1555: Taking Action (2)

Regarding this, he couldn’t figure it out despite racking his brains, so he had to suppress his doubts in his heart, and perhaps he would have the opportunity to know the answer in the future.

After a round of adjustments in his breath, he quickly restored his mana and continued exploring the void.

However, this time, Li Zhirui acted alone and did not release Qing Si from the space, since the chaos was too dangerous now!

If he encountered another accident like this, if he reacted even just slightly slower, Qing Si might very well perish or be severely injured.

So for Qing Si’s safety, until the issue of the frequent riots of the chaotic fierce beasts is resolved, he felt it was safer to keep him in the space.

Moreover, this way, he wouldn’t be a burden to Li Zhirui.

Since he was acting alone, he had fewer worries, and he could act a bit more boldly. Therefore, he flew quickly through the chaos, swiftly exploring the surrounding situations to see if he could find out the reason behind the abnormal behavior of the chaotic fierce beasts.

Unfortunately, he encountered quite a few chaotic fierce beasts along the way and managed to shake them off at a fast pace without engaging in battle, but he also didn’t find the answer.

He didn’t have to delve to the bottom of it, but in the current situation, it wasn’t suitable for him to practice and was delaying his cultivation!

This was the real reason he wanted to know the answer.

"If it really can’t be helped, I’ll just have to risk practicing in the void," Li Zhirui muttered to himself.

After all, he couldn’t let such an unknown factor delay his cultivation at most; it would just be more tiring and risky.

Rumble—

A sudden loud explosion erupted from not far away, as if a fierce battle had broken out.

The commotion was as great as the battles he had previously encountered between the two peak Profound Immortal beings!

Without much thought, Li Zhirui concealed his form, restrained his aura, and quickly flew toward the direction of the sound.

Soon, he witnessed a shocking scene.

Not far from him, there were thousands of chaotic fierce beasts!

Fierce beasts that would attack immediately upon the encounter at this moment, however, had all shrunk their bodies, focusing intently on the same spot.

In their center was a blank area formed, with only one fierce beast inside!

The explosion sound Li Zhirui had heard earlier was actually caused by the tribulation transcendence of that central fierce beast, which was why he had felt the power was so strong.

"What is going on?"

This scene astounded him, and he dared not approach any closer. If those chaotic fierce beasts discovered him, his fate might not be good.

"Moreover, judging by the eye expressions of those surrounding fierce beasts, they were actually guarding rather than being greedy..." In other words, they were actually protecting the beast undergoing tribulation transcendence!

This was very strange!

The chaotic fierce beasts with no spiritual intelligence were actually acting as a protector for their ’companion,’ and from so far away too.

"Could it be that the impatient chaotic fierce beasts I encountered earlier came here because they felt a summoning?"

Li Zhirui suddenly thought of this and was startled by his own idea because he thought this could very likely be true!

"Then what could be the matter now?"

One problem was solved, only to find another.

But this time, he didn’t need to get the answer because there was no need anymore.

Rumble—

Another massive tribulation thunder struck down, and even from a far distance, Li Zhirui could distinctly feel the devastating power contained within it.

Yet this seemingly unremarkable tribulation thunder shocked him profoundly.

Because the power of this tribulation thunder was several times more terrifying than the final tribulation thunder he had experienced when he broke through to the Profound Immortal rank!

It was just a fierce beast at the Profound Immortal rank breaking through, yet the power of the tribulation thunder was this terrifying. Moreover, this was likely just among the initial few tribulation thunders.

There must be a difference in the level of the thunder tribulation, leading to variations in power, but the discrepancy was enormous.

Li Zhirui suspected it wasn’t just because of this, and it probably had something to do with its origins, as the qualifications of chaotic fierce beasts were already extraordinarily high.

After pondering for a while, he decided to stay and observe this tribulation transcendence.

To let himself gain an understanding of the Golden Immortal Thunder Tribulation, it might help him in the future when needed.

And it must be noted, such opportunities are rare, especially for Li Zhirui, who didn’t have a teacher as a guide. Encountering a Golden Immortal Thunder Tribulation again was nearly impossible, so of course, he wanted to seize this opportunity.

Tribulation thunders fell one after another, and from afar, it appeared that the chaotic fierce beast undergoing the tribulation remained in good condition, as if the mighty thunders were just scratching an itch with no significant harm.

Unknown how much time passed, but the thunder tribulation continued.

But as per the record Li Zhirui kept, the eighth tribulation thunder should be next if another hasn’t fallen in a while,

Then there would be only the last two tribulation thunders left, which were the most powerful!

The earlier tribulation thunders had already left a deep impression on Li Zhirui, and who knew what surprise the most powerful thunders would bring him now?

Bang!

Soon, the eighth tribulation thunder smashed down.

Even from a great distance, Li Zhirui could feel its world-destroying power. If it were him, even using all his means, he wouldn’t be able to withstand this tribulation thunder.

However, that chaotic fierce beast seemed not to be troubled by it. Spirit light erupted from its body as a large beam of light shot up to the sky, clashing with the tribulation thunder.

Crack!

That indiscernible beam of light could even shatter the tribulation thunder, though it, too, was already fragmented.

Boom—

A massive shockwave spread outwards, blowing away all the chaotic fierce beasts outside the thunder tribulation who were acting as protectors.

And Li Zhirui almost discovered himself. If not for his timely reaction and quick use of a spell, he might have been exposed by now.

"Hmm?"

He suddenly let out a sound of surprise because just now, amid that strong impact, Li Zhirui detected that another entity was hidden at a distance not far from himself.

"What is this person’s purpose? Like me, are they here to comprehend the tribulation thunder or do they have other intentions?"

But in the next moment, he pushed these questions aside.

Because the final tribulation thunder had already fallen!

A massive bolt of lightning shot out from the tribulation cloud, turning the chaos into white!

Even though Li Zhirui was far enough away and was not a target of the tribulation thunder, such a terrifying lightning bolt still inspired a trace of fear in his heart.

But in an instant, his mind gathered into a long sword, severing that trace of fear, and then he focused all his energy on comprehending the laws that accompanied this tribulation thunder.

As for this chaotic fierce beast, it was still contending against the tribulation thunder, and neither side could do anything to the other. It seemed they would be in a stalemate for a while.

This was naturally not good news for the beast but for Li Zhirui, who was observing the laws, he wished the stalemate would last longer.

However, his hopes did not come to fruition. With the fierce beast unleashing its full strength, the tribulation thunder was in full retreat and was fundamentally not a match.

The laws quickly dissipated, and he also became acutely aware.

The current situation was no longer suitable for pondering.

"It seems this chaotic fierce beast is indeed about to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm!"

Heart Demon Tribulation was not much of a test for them, as the means of those Heart Demons were almost ineffective against chaotic fierce beasts without spiritual intelligence.

Before long, a terrifying pressure erupted from the body of that beast, and the nearby thousands of chaotic fierce beasts couldn’t withstand it, kneeling as if paying homage to a king.

The thunder tribulation had ended, and it had already broken through to the Golden Immortal Realm. Staying any longer would bring no benefit to Li Zhirui, and instead might place him in danger, so he planned to withdraw.

But just then, another hidden entity suddenly made a move!
