Chapter 1305: He's Taking a Bath!

"Break through, while we're at it?"

"Break through... just like that?"

"Ten breaths, such a short time, what can you do? Not even enough for a trip to the bathroom!"

Hearing Zhang Xuan's words, the crowd below erupted in uproar.

The several elders in the air also looked at each other, bewildered.

When others break through, they need to find a quiet, secluded room and prepare all sorts of conditions. This guy, in the middle of a fight, asks for a pause, giving ten breaths of time...

Do you think breaking through is a joke?

"Fine, I'll give you ten breaths. Let's see if you have the skill..."

Also taken aback, Zhang Yunfeng almost burst out laughing.

He had seen strange people, but never one this strange.

In the middle of a fight, asking for ten breaths to break through... Could it be any more absurd?

But then again, even if I give you time, what use is it?

Just the Primordial Spirit realm. Even if you break through, you're definitely no match.

Besides... ten breaths, just a few words' time. It's uncertain whether you can break through. Might as well do him a favor and let him know that an ant is an ant, no matter how it hops, it can't withstand a single punch!

"Much obliged..."

Gratefully nodding, Zhang Xuan flipped his wrist, took out the Cold Ice Spiritual Liquid, uncorked the bottle, opened his mouth, and swallowed it down.

"That's not for drinking..."

Chen Leyao below turned pale, nearly fainting on the spot.

Cold Ice Spiritual Liquid, a spiritual liquid of ice-cold属性, freezes to the marrow. Normally, to absorb it, one would circulate a yin technique, dip a finger in a bit, and slowly consume it through painstaking effort. A bottle of spiritual liquid would take at least several years to use... And he swallowed it all at once!

Although this thing is rich in spiritual energy, it's too icy cold. Swallowing it directly would be more violent than a deadly poison. Not to mention the Primordial Spirit realm, even a Domain realm expert would surely die... What are you doing?

Because he was a lifesaver and the young palace master's teacher, she gave him a bottle. If he died because of this... she would be guilty beyond redemption.

Gurgle, gurgle!

Just as she was terrified and at a loss, she saw that the young man on the stage, far from freezing into an ice block and dying on the spot, instead had his internal power growing stronger and stronger, like a mountain flood that had been accumulating for who knows how long, ready to burst forth wildly at any moment.

Then, with an explosive roar, his cultivation directly broke through the peak of the Primordial Spirit realm, reaching the half-step Soul Departure stage.

Having reached this realm, he did not stop but continued to surge upward.

After two breaths, he had already become a pseudo Soul Departure expert.

"That works?"

Pale-faced and dry-throated, Chen Leyao's beautiful eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

She thought he would surely be frozen to death, but... nothing happened, and he instantly refined the spiritual liquid, advancing his cultivation... This physique is too terrifying!

In her shock, the advancement of his cultivation stopped.

It seemed the spiritual energy of the Cold Ice Spiritual Liquid had been exhausted.

"This..."

"About three breaths... two minor levels?"

"Too fast, right?"

The crowd staggered.

Elder Haoyu and the others in the air almost fell down.

They thought the ten breaths he mentioned were a joke, never dreaming that in just three breaths, he had already broken through two minor levels. It seemed that if the Cold Ice Spiritual Liquid had enough spiritual energy, he might even have charged to a higher realm.

"Pseudo Soul Departure is nothing. Such strength means nothing to me..."

Unexpectedly, the other party really could break through, and so fiercely. Zhang Yunfeng frowned, then sneered.

Pseudo Soul Departure was still far from a true Domain realm expert like him.

Boom!

Just as he was marveling, a thunderclap sounded overhead, and the previously clear sky immediately darkened.

He quickly looked up and saw a patch of black clouds covering the square above.

"He... isn't thinking of triggering the lightning tribulation, is he?"

His mouth twitched, and his body involuntarily shook.

Just broke through to pseudo Soul Departure and dares to summon the lightning tribulation... Do you know how terrifying the lightning tribulation is?

The Primordial Spirit is yin in nature and needs the nourishment of lightning tribulation to gradually become yang, allowing it to roam freely without being constrained by the physical body...

For this reason, the lightning tribulation is the most terrifying thing for Primordial Spirit experts. Even he, when he broke through to pseudo Soul Departure back then, consolidated for a full half year before daring to face it... Even so, he was severely injured, nearly crippled, and took three months to recover!

This guy, breaking through so fast is one thing, but directly summoning the lightning tribulation...

Are you afraid you won't die fast enough?

"Too reckless!"

Trembling, Zhao Xingmo didn't faint.

Losing was one thing, after all, Zhang Yunfeng's rank was higher. Even if he conceded, it wouldn't affect his status as an elite class student... But breaking through in ten breaths and then challenging the lightning tribulation...

What is he trying to do?

"Don't worry... Teacher Zhang should be fine!"

Zhang Jiuxiao comforted him.

This Teacher Zhao didn't know, but he had seen it with his own eyes.

Whenever he barely made a breakthrough, the other party would say his accumulation was enough and then break through even more...

He was used to being beaten down day after day.

Although the scene before him was still incomprehensible, happening to this guy, it became acceptable.

After all, he was a Heaven-Approved Master Teacher like Confucius!

"Fine? How can it be fine? The first time the Primordial Spirit experiences the lightning tribulation is the most terrifying. Many people fall here... Look at the dark clouds in the sky, so dense. I'm afraid he's too arrogant and can't withstand it!"

Zhao Xingmo was anxious. "And even if he withstands it, he'll be severely injured. How can he still fight?"

Facing the lightning tribulation, the Primordial Spirit is inevitably damaged... Severely injured, how can he fight a Domain realm expert?

Without fighting, it's certain death!

"This..."

Zhang Jiuxiao was stunned.

Despite his confidence, this situation seemed unsolvable.

"Look, Teacher Zhang's Primordial Spirit has left his body..."

Just as he didn't know how to answer, the crowd stirred. He quickly looked up and saw Teacher Zhang standing motionless, while a Primordial Spirit leaped out from between his eyebrows and charged straight toward the dark clouds in the sky.

"Primordial Spirit? This... is even more dangerous!"

His mouth twitched.

Back when Hall Master Xing broke through, he had seen it with his own eyes. The Primordial Spirit directly facing the lightning was even more difficult. Bringing the physical body along would be somewhat better.

Knowing it was harder, why take such a risk?

Just as he found it unbelievable, he saw Zhang Xuan's life-sized Primordial Spirit already entering the ocean of lightning, with countless bolts of thunder roaring and striking over.

Crack! Crack!

The Primordial Spirit stood amidst the lightning, its hands constantly moving over its body, as if it couldn't control itself from being electrocuted.

"The Soul Departure realm is a major hurdle for Saint realm experts. Many people's Primordial Spirits simply can't withstand it. He's completely unprepared and goes in like that. If he can keep his Primordial Spirit from being extinguished, that's already a success!"

"Yes, he's already dancing and flailing without any order!"

"The Primordial Spirit is yin in nature. The first time it experiences the lightning tribulation, its consciousness might even be erased... This guy is too impatient... Hmm, no, I don't think he's dancing and flailing from being electrocuted!"

The crowd below initially all sighed, but suddenly someone shouted, and everyone froze.

"Indeed, it's not dancing and flailing from being electrocuted, but..."

After half a breath, a master teacher realized and screamed as if seeing a ghost: "It's... taking a bath!"

"Taking a bath?"

Everyone was stunned. They hurriedly looked and indeed noticed something was off.

The Primordial Spirit in the thunder, its hands moving, was not twitching but rhythmically rubbing back and forth, just like taking a bath, as if trying to spread the incoming lightning more evenly.

Tempering it into the deepest part of the soul.

"The lightning tribulation, which the Primordial Spirit fears most, he not only isn't afraid but uses its power to take a bath..."

"Am I seeing this right?"

They had seen crazy things, but never this crazy.

In one breath, he surged from the peak of the Primordial Spirit realm to pseudo Soul Departure, and in a few breaths, he summoned the lightning tribulation again...

Enduring the lightning filling the sky was one thing, but lying inside taking a bath, enjoying himself, having so much fun...

Everyone grabbed their hair, speechless.

"This, this..."

His eyelids twitching nonstop, Elder Haoyu also swallowed his saliva, dumbfounded.

Having been an elder of the Saint Son Hall for hundreds of years, he had seen countless astonishing super geniuses: the current head of the Zhang family, the little princess of the Luo family... each one was one in a million, as brilliant as stars.

But... someone who dared to play with the Soul Departure tribulation like this had never been seen!

This could no longer be described with words.

"He..." stood frozen in place, Zhang Yunfeng also turned wooden.

He thought the other party summoning the lightning was asking for death, but never imagined he would be completely fine and even 'bathe' with great delight.

"Ten breaths are up..."

After a moment of stiffness, he suddenly reacted and shouted loudly.

Whoosh!

As if hearing the shout, the Primordial Spirit in the air stopped 'scrubbing,' opened its mouth wide, and the countless lightning bolts densely entered its throat, then gently shook and drilled into the physical body.

The next moment, Zhang Xuan opened his eyes, looked at Zhang Yunfeng not far away, and said apologetically.

"I'm really sorry. Seeing the lightning tribulation, I got too happy playing and wasted one breath. Consider it my advantage. How about this... I'll let you have three moves!"
