Zombie World: Starting as an apprentice of the Thunder King

Everyone on Maoshan Mountain had their eyes fixed on the sea of ​​lightning, and no one dared to look away.

In the direction of Chongxi Wanshou Palace, Master Xuanji's brows finally relaxed a little.

Although he disliked Shi Jian's behavior, if the other party could successfully overcome the tribulation, it would ultimately be a good thing for Maoshan.

"Master...can he succeed?" Ye Qing asked nervously.

Master Xuanji remained silent for a moment, then said calmly, "Whether it succeeds or not is no longer up to him alone."

Above the nine heavens, in the Heavenly Court!

The celestial generals on duty in the Thunder Department were patrolling the outer perimeter of the Heavenly Court when they suddenly sensed a strong fluctuation of thunder-attribute energy coming from the lower realm.

"Hmm? How could the lower realm trigger such a powerful lightning tribulation?"

With his third eye opened, his gaze pierced through the nine heavens.

They saw the sea of ​​lightning undergoing its tribulation above Maoshan, and the figure sitting cross-legged in the very center of the sea of ​​lightning.

"So you're a disciple of Maoshan!"

"Lei Fa's foundation is solid, and his temperament is ruthless enough."

"To prove one's Dao through lightning techniques and to bravely forge one's body through a sea of ​​lightning... he is indeed a courageous young man."

He pondered for a moment, then flicked his finger.

A beam of light shot from his fingertips, pierced through the barrier of the heavens, and silently fell into the lower realm.

The spiritual light instantly merged into Shi Jian's brow, forming a thunderous mark!

A few breaths later, the lightning mark merged into the depths of his Purple Mansion, gently touched his Nascent Soul, and then sank into his Spirit Platform, lying dormant on its own.

Shi Jian was fully engaged in fighting off Lei Hai's attack and was completely unaware of anything unusual!

"roar!!!"

"break!"

A roar erupted from the depths of the sea of ​​lightning, followed by a violent tremor throughout the entire sea of ​​lightning.

Under the watchful eyes of all the disciples, elders, and celestial masters of Maoshan, the terrifying lightning began to shatter inch by inch.

A figure, bathed in lightning, strode out from the shattered lightning.

He stood in mid-air, with the dissipating sea of ​​lightning beneath his feet, and behind him the continuous temples of Maoshan and countless eyes looking up at him.

Feeling the numerous gazes upon him, Shi Jian took a deep breath, and his voice resounded for miles around: "I am Shi Jian, the Celestial Master of the Dao!"

Throughout the cultivation world, those who were paying attention to this calamity also wore complex expressions.

He eventually got through it.

"Maoshan... has gained another Celestial Master."

"Shi Jian... from now on we should call him Master Shi."

Wow!!!

A deafening cheer erupted from the entire Maoshan area.

All the elders and disciples were so excited that their faces turned red, and even the usually stern older generation showed gratified smiles.

In their lifetime, they witnessed the birth of a Celestial Master!

In the Nine Heavens Palace of Ten Thousand Blessings, Master Qingwei's eyes were slightly red. "Good, good, good, truly worthy of being my disciple!"

"That's how utterly inhumane they are!"

Master Zixu rolled his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and put away the jade talisman.

In the Chongxi Wanshou Palace, Master Xuanji gazed at the figure in the sky, remained silent for a long time, and then turned and walked into the hall.

Ye Qing, who was behind him, stared at Shi Jian's back for a long while before reluctantly following him inside.

"Senior Brother! You've succeeded!" Several Maoshan elders had already rushed into the air to congratulate him, but Shi Jian raised his hand to stop them.

"Let me stabilize my cultivation level first."

His words still carried an unquestionable air of authority, and in a flash, he landed in the rear hall of the Nine Heavens Palace of Ten Thousand Blessings.

He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to consolidate his newly broken-through Celestial Master realm.

Master Qingwei stood at the entrance of the rear hall, not going in to disturb them.

He turned to look at his excited disciples in the square and raised his hand to signal them to be quiet: "My disciple Shi Jian has attained the status of Celestial Master. In six months, Maoshan will hold the Celestial Master Ceremony."

"At that time, invitations will be widely distributed to various schools of thought to attend the ceremony."

At this moment, Master Qingwei glanced at the ancestral tablets in the hall, especially those of the Three Mao True Lords.

He suddenly felt that perhaps... well... one more could be added next to these three memorial tablets!

Upon hearing the news, everyone at Maoshan immediately sprang into action, preparing to welcome this grand event.

The news of Shi Jian's breakthrough spread throughout the cultivation world at an extremely fast pace.

The news that Shi Jian, the Thunder and Lightning Dharma King of Maoshan, had successfully attained the status of Celestial Master swept through major sects and independent cultivator circles like a storm.

Some were shocked and envious, while others were jealous and fearful...

All eyes were focused on Maoshan.

Half a month later, the Shenxiao Sect.

Master Yu Lei sat in the main hall, holding the talisman sent by Maoshan in his hand, and looked at it for a long time before putting it down.

Then he called to his disciple, "Go to the guest courtyard and invite Lin Bei and Shi Shaojian here."

When Lin Bei was summoned to the main hall, he was still somewhat puzzled.

As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw Master Yu Lei standing in front of the hall, holding a talisman in his hand.

"Master Yu Lei, you were looking for me?"

Master Yu Lei glanced at the two of them: "News has come from Maoshan that Shi Jian has broken through to the Celestial Master level, and a grand ceremony will be held in six months."

Lin Bei and Shi Shaojian both froze on the spot.

He was immediately replaced by overwhelming joy: "Master has broken through?!"

"Just half a month ago, the tribulation of lightning passed, and I successfully attained enlightenment."

Shi Shaojian jumped up excitedly: "Hahaha! Master has broken through!"

"Master... now my backing is even stronger!"

"Let's see who dares to mess with me now!"

Lin Bei rolled her eyes at him: "Can't you be a little more dignified!"

"If we're so capable, let's cultivate ourselves to the rank of Celestial Master and make our Master proud!"

Shi Shaojian scratched his head sheepishly; he certainly understood what Lin Bei meant.

Relying on connections can only provide temporary relief; only by becoming strong can one survive in this chaotic world.

Master Yu Lei looked at him with a thoughtful expression. "Your master proved his Dao through thunder magic and crossed that hurdle. This era has gained another Celestial Master."

"The Celestial Master Ceremony will be held at Maoshan in six months. You will need to return to Maoshan at that time."

Lin Bei nodded vigorously: "This disciple understands."

Master Yu Lei remained silent for a while, seemingly deep in thought.

After a long silence, he finally spoke: "You've been in my Shenxiao Sect for quite some time now, but your cultivation has been stuck at the late stage of the Mage realm."

The Maoshan Grand Ceremony is imminent. Half a year is neither a long nor a short time. If you wish to advance further…”

Lin Bei was taken aback: "What does the real person mean...?"

"Our Shenxiao Sect has a secret realm called the Thunder Secret Realm."

Master Yu Lei slowly said, "It was created by the power of heavenly thunder when our sect's first patriarch ascended to heaven."

"Although it can't compare to the secret realm of your Maoshan Mountain, the lightning attribute power inside is extremely rich, making it an excellent place to cultivate lightning techniques."

"However, this secret realm requires a large amount of sect resources to open, and it can only be opened once every few decades."

"You and I are destined to meet, and you are destined to be associated with the Shenxiao Sect."

"I'm giving you the opportunities I've had over the past six months."

Lin Bei's breathing suddenly quickened for a moment.

He could tell the weight of Master Yu Lei's words; the resources consumed in opening the secret realm were by no means a small amount for a sect.

This feeling is far more profound than those previous spells.
