I Might Be A Fake Cultivator - Chapter 1254
Chapter 1254: Initiating the Plan
Kui almost exploded with rage upon hearing An Lin’s words.
He could make a joke at Kui’s expense, but he absolutely could not look down on his lightning pit!
“Hehe, the lightning here isn’t up to your standards? Keep coming then. I’ll show you what truly terrifying lightning looks like!” Kui chuckled coldly as he continued to lead the way. He no longer opposed to An Lin following them now. In fact, he was quite glad to have An Lin follow along.
He was going to make An Lin experience true pain and despair!
The Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird was also a little taken aback. “Don’t force yourself if you can’t go on. The place Kui and I are going to next is dangerous even to Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures.”
An Lin could hear the concern in the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird’s voice, and he replied with a smile, “Don’t worry, I won’t take any excessive risks.”
The Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird discovered that she couldn’t dissuade An Lin, so she just let him be. When the lightning became too terrifying for him to bear, he would probably give up on his own volition.
Thus, the three of them continued onward.
One hundred meters, one thousand meters, ten thousand meters…
After another ten kilometers.
A mysterious, inky-black stone with specks of starlight glowing on its surface appeared before everyone.
This was an extremely massive oval-shaped stone that was over ten thousand feet in size.
It exuded extremely terrifying energy fluctuations and lightning was visible through its exterior.
Peering into the lightning crack, one could see boundless lightning power surging within, and just the very sight of it could strike irrepressible fear into its onlookers’ hearts.
This seemed to be the center of the sea of lightning.
The lightning was very fearsome here, and several dozen bolts of it crashed down onto the three of them per second.
Kui turned to An Lin with astonishment on his face and extended words of praise.
“I really didn’t think that you would be able to come this far. You are more powerful than any of the Return to Void Stage mighty figures I have ever seen. Continue to refine your body here. The place up ahead is not somewhere you can set foot into.”
An Lin had won acknowledgment from Kui with his actions.
However, an expression of disappointment appeared on his face upon hearing Kui’s words. “Is this the extent of what the Five-Colored Lightning Pit is capable of? To be honest, after you get accustomed to it, you don’t feel anything anymore.”
A disdainful expression appeared on An Lin’s face as he spoke, and he swallowed a few bolts of lightning into his stomach, as if the lightning crackling in the sky didn’t even exist to him.
Kui’s expression had completely frozen solid on his face upon seeing this.
Was this human really this immune to lightning?
How dare he look down on the Five-Colored Lightning Pit?! It’s time to teach him a lesson!
“Hehe, seeing as Sect Leader An Lin is dissatisfied with the lightning here, then please enter the core region of the Five-Colored Lightning Pit with me!” Kui spoke with a cold smile.
“Oh? The core region? That does sound interesting. I hope it won’t disappoint me.” A curious expression appeared on An Lin’s face, but he was already jumping for joy internally.
He didn’t think it would be so easy to goad Kui into leading him to the core region of the Five-Colored Lightning Pit!
Kui didn’t really mind taking An Lin into the core region. After all, even he didn’t dare to touch the lightning there, so how was An Lin supposed to enter?
He could take An Lin there to bring him down a notch!
The Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird turned to An Lin with a curious expression.
An Lin was always stirring up trouble wherever he went. What was he up to this time?
“Come with me.” Kui’s voice was like a clap of thunder.
He squeezed his way into the lightning crack on the stone as he spoke.
An Lin followed Kui into the lightning crack, and he was struck by a rush of dizziness from spatial teleportation.
In the next instant.
An Lin appeared in a place where there was no light.
Everyone was enshrouded by darkness and nothingness. However, the Five-Colored Divine Lightning lit up the entire sky up ahead, surging like a tsunami to create a barrier of divine lightning that barred one from being able to see what was going on up ahead.
Even just by standing outside, An Lin was struck by a sense of profound fear.
This lightning was simply too high a level. Each and every bolt of lightning was imbued with the power of the divine dao, and there were tens of thousands of these bolts of lightning crashing down here!
This meant that even Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures could perish within this barrier created from lightning!
There must be a priceless treasure in such a dangerous place!
An Lin felt like he had come to the right place. Kui was not able to enter this place, so the Dark Bead was still waiting for the fated person to come and collect it.
“Hahaha… Sect Leader An Lin, this is the core region of my Five-Colored Lightning Pit. How about it? Does this lightning suit your tastes? Do you want to have a go?” Kui spoke with a gloating expression, as if he was extending a challenge to An Lin.
“Sect Leader An Lin, you must not go. Even Kui is unable to endure the lightning here,” the couldn’t help but interject.
The Five-Colored Divine Lightning here was countless times more terrifying than normal divine lightning. Any one of those bolts of lightning could cause a cataclysmic disaster in the outside world!
“Thank you for your concern, Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird, but I’ll be fine.” An Lin met the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird’s concerned glance with an extremely confident smile.
“You…” The Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird almost exploded upon hearing this. Why was he being so stubborn?
“What the hell are you trying to do?”
A pleasant voice sounded in An Lin’s mind, clearly a result of the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird using a voice transmission technique.
“Haha, Vermilion Bird Princess, why didn’t you keep pretending?” An Lin transmitted his voice with a smile.
A hint of surprise flashed past the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird’s gorgeous eyes. “You… How did you know it was me?!”
“Don’t underestimate my IQ!” An Lin snapped.
On that day, both of them had guessed each other’s true identities, but neither of them said anything.
Now that they met again, what was the point of hiding their identities?!
A hint of humiliation appeared on the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird’s face. “L-let’s not talk about that for now. What are you trying to do? The lightning up ahead is really dangerous, you could seriously die!”
“I have to go somewhere Kui can’t reach. There is a bead that I want in the Five-Colored Lightning Pit, which is hidden in the deeper part of its core region.”
An Lin didn’t hide his intention from the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird. He trusted the Vermilion Bird Princess.
The Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird faltered slightly upon hearing this before turning to look at An Lin with a peculiar expression. “This… is an unexpected coincidence. I’m about to go in too.”
An Lin turned to the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird with a hint of incredulity on his face. “Even Kui can’t enter this place, what gives you the confidence to enter?”
A cold smile appeared on the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird’s face. “I could ask you the exact same thing!”
An Lin had no response to this.
At this moment, a thunderous voice suddenly sounded.
“Oi, why are you looking at each other like that for? Do you two know each other?!”
Kui looked at the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird and An Lin with a confused expression. He had a nagging feeling that there was something peculiar about this situation.
An Lin and the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird both averted their gazes with slightly awkward expressions.
“I’m here to obtain treasures as well. I’ll get the bead for you, you just stay here and keep yourself safe. Don’t be goaded into losing your life,” the Nine-Colored Divine Vermilion Bird continued to transmit her voice.
An Lin felt like this was a plausible plan.
The Vermilion Bird Princess was a woman he could trust. She was a reliable and trustworthy friend. Otherwise, she would not have chosen to help him at the Sun Tree even after learning of his identity.
However… did the Vermilion Bird Princess really have what it would take to pass through this divine lightning barrier?
Would she encounter some danger?
Just as An Lin was struggling to make a decision.
A clear “Ding Dong” suddenly sounded in his mind!
