You eloped with the son of luck, and now you regret it and come to me for help?

Chapter 16: Ten thousand year old medicine, inner demon tribulation!
The mountain behind Wanren City is located in the southwest of the entire city. It was originally a barren mountain, but today, countless powerful men gather here.

Most of these powerful men were whispering to each other, or keeping their mouths shut in fear, looking at Lu Ren who was covered by heavy thunderclouds.

"I was originally wondering how Lu Ren could achieve the Supreme Saint status so easily. Not only was there no blessing from Heaven, but there was no thunder tribulation either. It turns out that he was suppressed until now."

"But it's strange, how can the thunder tribulation be suppressed by human power?"

"Oh, you can't. Do you think others are as useless as you?"

"You want to fight?"

"Just hit us!"

Some of the strong men around already had grudges against each other, and were angered by a few words and stared at each other unkindly.

At this moment, someone else exclaimed, drawing everyone's attention.

"I see!"

"what do you know?"

"The reason why Patriarch Lu didn't survive the thunder tribulation at that time was because of his law of time! Look!"

What were they looking at? Of course, they were looking at the gray hair on Lu Ren's temples.

Following the hand of the person who pointed, many powerful men looked over. After one look, they felt that it was particularly absurd, and there was also a sour and weird feeling in their hearts.

I don't know who suddenly said:
"That's impossible... Could it be that Lu Ren is a demon?"

"According to this calculation, he used the law of time to suppress the thunder tribulation for two full days!"

"Two days... won't it cost me ten thousand years of life?"

"Impossible! No matter what, even if he had used up ten thousand years of his life, he shouldn't have such a strong aura. Hiss... Lu Ren is indeed a monster. I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse for us to have such a leader on the same stage."

But all these exclamations were no match for the old man's roar of grief.

"Ten thousand year old spirit root?"

"what is that?"

"Who is this old man?"

Many of the onlookers failed to recognize the old man's identity, but some who did were so shocked that they gasped and approached him respectfully.

"Mr. Bai, why did you come here in person?"

Old Bai was so distressed that he beat his chest and stamped his feet, "What a waste! What a waste! This kid from the Lu family needs to survive the catastrophe, so he just asked me for the elixir. Why did he eat this ten thousand year old spirit root directly?"

"If I had this millstone-sized ten thousand year old spirit root in my hand, I would be able to refine ten furnaces of spirit-replenishing pills!!"

When the key words "Old Bai" and "refining elixirs" were put together, the people around instantly knew who this old man was and their eyes widened in disbelief.

"It's Bai Yuande from the Alchemist Association, Old Bai!"

As for the Soul-Replenishing Pill… a bronze-skinned sturdy man in the crowd turned his head sharply, almost twisting his neck. “Is this really the main ingredient of the Soul-Replenishing Pill, the Zhong Linggen? And it’s ten thousand years old!?”

“Ahhh!! This, this Lu family master!! This is such a waste of talent!”

Looking at his appearance, people who didn’t know would think that what Lu Ren ate was his.

But there are also people who know him and can't help but feel pity for him.

"Qi Yi of Haotian League has visited countless alchemists for his foolish daughter, but he is still lacking the main ingredient for refining the Soul-Replenishing Pill, a thousand-year-old spiritual root. Now he has found it, but it is in the hands of that killer god. There is no place to exchange it. Who knows if there will be any left after the thunder tribulation is over."

"Is it the spiritual pill that can replenish spiritual roots, widen spiritual veins, and even enlighten the mind? That is indeed rare."

"What a pity! We have the alchemist Bai Lao who can make the Soul-Replenishing Pill, and the main ingredient that is ten thousand years old, but there is still no hope."

Qi Yi didn't listen to what others said at all. He stared at Lu Ren in the center of the thunder tribulation with his round eyes and made up his mind.

If the head of the Lu family still has a palm-sized remnant of the Zhong Ling root in his hand after surviving the thunder tribulation, he will find a way to buy it no matter what, even if it means selling his life to the Lu family!

Lu Ren didn't care about the people around him at this time. The thunder tribulation was fierce, and even if someone had bad intentions, they wouldn't take action at this time, otherwise they would have to endure the double pain of the thunder tribulation with him.

He took a lot of herbs that could replenish his spiritual power, and filled his spiritual veins to deal with the thunder.

There was always a lingering malice in the thunder tribulation. Although it was hidden, it was still discovered by Lu Ren.

I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to survive this thunder tribulation.

Even if there are pills, they are useless.

The elixir that can be used by a supreme saint is not easy to refine!
What's more...

Lu Ren remained motionless under the bombardment of thunder and lightning. The dense power of thunder and lightning ran rampant in his body and was consumed by his spiritual power. But the next moment, more thunder power poured in, all heading towards his dantian.

His eyes flashed.

Want to ruin his career?
dream!

Spiritual power and thunder power used his body as a battlefield, fighting and devouring each other inside his body, but the only beneficiary and victim was Lu Ren.

Because originally in the plot, Lu Ren would never achieve sainthood in his lifetime and would die at the peak of the saintly realm, so the Heavenly Dao used the power of fate to pester Lu Ren and end his journey before he reached the saintly realm.

But not to mention that the current Lu Ren will not accept his fate, even the original Lu Ren would never accept this absurd fate.

He had already carried the thousand-year-old elixir in the Lu family's warehouse with him. Almost every other cup of tea, Lu Ren would take it out and swallow one without hesitation.

Little did he know that his actions made the onlookers around him tremble with fear.

They didn't care at all whether Lu Ren could survive the thunder tribulation or not. They just counted mechanically one by one as if they were possessed.

"Ten Thousand Years Bone-Eroding Flower!"

“Ten thousand years old radix scutellariae!”

"Ten thousand year old netherworld treasure root! Oh my! It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others!"

By the end, the tune had completely changed.

"The Yuan Fen Dan is gone!"

"The Eight Treasure Flower Cream is gone!"

"The Polymorph Pill is gone too!"

At the shouts of the crowd, a deep purple thunderbolt, almost as thick as a bucket, meandered and fell with the momentum of thunder.

Lu Ren did not dodge or evade. His silver-white robe flashed with the light of a supreme grade spiritual treasure. He rushed straight towards the thunder tribulation like a silver meteor!

"He! What is he doing!"

Everyone was shocked.

"Is Patriarch Lu trying to provoke the thunder tribulation?"

Although Lu Ren's facial expression could not be seen clearly, everyone understood what Lu Ren's action meant. For a moment, it was not clear whether to say that Lu Ren was brave or not afraid of death.

The deep purple thunder seemed to be enraged, rumbling down and heavily striking down the figure that had risen straight into the sky!
Lu Ren was forced to fall to the ground, half of his body was charred. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, which evaporated instantly, but his eyes were bright and he even laughed!

The thunder tribulation may seem terrifying, but in fact it cannot kill him at all!
His fate is never in the hands of heaven!

The thunder tribulation seemed to have detected Lu Ren's thoughts, and its momentum became even more terrifying. It was reluctant to fall, but continued to brew, as if preparing a killing move.

Lu Ren glanced at the rolling thunderclouds with indifference. Even the surrounding sky and earth changed color and became dark, which made the cultivator feel heavy in his heart, but he did not take it to heart.

When he and the Son of Destiny embarked on two paths that would never run parallel to each other, he was prepared to encounter all of this, and he had long known that he would eventually be on the opposite side of the Way of Heaven.

But, what's the difficulty?
The cork of the pill bottle rolled off, and he poured countless pills into his mouth without hesitation. When his injuries were mostly healed, a thunderbolt from the sky fell on his head!
But it's not purple, but a kind of seductive pink...
