Chapter 943: Chapter 968: The Black Dragon Emerges
After hearing the Sword Spirit’s voice, Chu Linfeng hurriedly stabilized his heart spirit. If anything went wrong at this moment, it would really be a bad thing. Although he felt utterly exhausted, he was determined to ensure the Sword Spirit’s safety.
Having infused the five elements once more, Chu Linfeng was on the verge of collapsing. If the Sword Spirit asked him to infuse them again, he certainly couldn’t manage it; he was already at his limit. However, at this time, the Sword Spirit said, "You can stop infusing the five elements now. Take some time to recover your strength. I’ll call you when it’s time to infuse the wind and thunder elements."
Chu Linfeng felt as if the sound of the Sword Spirit’s voice was a heavenly melody. He sat down on the ground, completely spent, and looked at the breathtaking form before him. He had no desire at all, even if the Sword Spirit was willing to give her body to him now, he was powerless, and could only watch.
He then cleared his mind and slowly started channeling the chaotic dragon power within him. Despite the substantial output of the five elements, as long as he channeled the chaotic dragon power, he would quickly recover. Time passed slowly as Chu Linfeng entered a state of forgetfulness.
The Sword Spirit was fully concentrated on recovering her body, periodically emanating blinding rays of light from her hands. It was unclear how much time had passed when the Sword Spirit said to Chu Linfeng, "Lin Feng, quickly infuse the wind and thunder elements, they need to be infused simultaneously!"
If it were anyone else, they wouldn’t be able to do it, but Chu Linfeng’s dual heart use allowed him to do just that. So he immediately stood up and promptly infused the wind and thunder elements. Shortly, the wind and thunder elements completely enveloped the Sword Spirit’s body.
Thus, he repeatedly infused and paused, infused and paused again, and when Chu Linfeng felt exhausted once more, the Sword Spirit’s voice came through like a heavenly melody, "Lin Feng, you can stop now. Once the thunder tribulation is passed, I will be fully restored."
Chu Linfeng nodded. Infusing the wind and thunder elements was even more strenuous than the five elements. The dual heart use consumed a significant amount of heart spirit, causing him to feel dazed. However, he still sat on the ground to recover.
Outside, people were like ants on a hot pan, anxious to the point of madness. Chu Linfeng had been in the blood pool for over twenty days now. The full moon night was approaching, but the blood pool remained silent. The Golden Dragon Grand Elder paced back and forth at the Teleportation Gate entrance.
"Should we go in to check on him? There’s only one day left; we can’t wait any longer!" The Golden Dragon Grand Elder said anxiously to the equally disturbed Golden Dragon Hall Master.
"We need to wait and see. Do not disturb him until the last moment. Perhaps he is having a breakthrough inside, and if we rashly interrupt him, it might not be a good thing. Everyone should calm down," said the Golden Dragon Hall Master.
"Indeed, we should trust him. If he truly cannot return, it would be our Dragon Race’s tribulation, and no one can be blamed. When the Seven Stars in a Row appear, we will act accordingly. For now, I think we should preserve our Dragon Race’s lineage by opening the Divine Dragon Valley and letting the exceptional members of the Dragon Race leave," said the Third Elder.
After a moment of contemplation, the Golden Dragon Hall Master said, "Indeed, we need to prepare for the worst. If the Divine Dragon Valley is truly destroyed, at least some members of the Dragon Race could survive outside. This task will be entrusted to the Third Elder."
Outside, everyone was anxious, while inside Chu Linfeng was fully focused on restoring his strength. At that moment, the Sword Spirit had completely regained her human form, appearing in a pure white dress. Her exquisite figure and unparalleled beauty made it impossible for anyone to look away from her.
Dark clouds began to appear in the sky, growing denser and denser; this was a sign of the approaching thunder tribulation. The Sword Spirit did not wake Chu Linfeng, allowing him to recover to his optimal state for better resistance against the thunder tribulation.
However, Chu Linfeng opened his eyes himself, stood up slowly, and realized the fatigue had vanished, leaving him full of strength. But seeing the pure-white-clad Sword Spirit before him startled him, causing him to step back.
His face immediately broke into a smile, and he walked towards the Sword Spirit, not caring whether she agreed or not, and directly pulled her into his embrace. This was a genuine sensation, completely real; his hand on the Sword Spirit’s back trembled slightly.
After countless nights waiting for this moment, finally holding the loved one close, filled with bitterness, excitement, and joy—this was truly as the saying goes, ’bitterness leads to sweetness.’
The Sword Spirit gently pushed Chu Linfeng away. If he continued holding her, she feared he would lose control. With the thunder tribulation imminent, if he suddenly succumbed to his urges and entangled with her, it would be unwise. Neither her currently weak state nor the upcoming ordeal allowed such indulgence.
"Lin Feng, let go of me quickly. I understand your feelings, as do I. Do you see the tribulation clouds above? If we cannot overcome the thunder tribulation, I will be reduced to nothingness; you need to give your best effort," the Sword Spirit said seriously.
Chu Linfeng immediately released the Sword Spirit; he could not endure the thought of her being reduced to nothingness. He glanced at the clouds above and said, "When the thunder strikes, what should I do? Should I use my body to shield you or find a way to destroy the thunder?"
"You need to fly into the air and completely withstand the tribulation thunder. There are only three strikes; given the clouds are not very thick, I believe my thunder tribulation will not be very severe," said the Sword Spirit.
"I understand, Yueyan, rest assured. Even if I die, I will not let you be harmed," said Chu Linfeng earnestly.
Unbeknownst to them, above the clouds, a silhouette quietly said, "How could you die, brother? These three thunderbolts are incredibly weak; consider them my gift to sister-in-law. Unfortunately, I cannot alter the Heaven and Earth Laws to erase the thunder tribulation, only lessen its intensity. I hope you can quickly improve your strength..."
If Chu Linfeng and the Sword Spirit heard this, they would surely be astonished. Someone calling him brother and having the ability to control the size of the thunder tribulation—what kind of realm such power belonged to was unimaginable.
Quickly, the clouds amassed together, and suddenly the sky darkened entirely. A powerful lightning appeared sporadically in the sky, while Chu Linfeng swiftly flew upwards, prepared to face the first bolt of lightning.
At this time, from the Sunken Dragon Pool’s secret chamber in Divine Dragon Valley, a resounding dragon roar echoed through the heavens and earth. Subsequently, a black giant dragon, several thousand meters long, appeared in the sky. Upon seeing the clouds, it couldn’t help but exclaim, "Someone is undergoing the tribulation now!"
