I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

The seventy-eighth bolt of Golden Void Lightning.

Golden lightning tore the heavens apart and descended like a claw of annihilation. The space collapsed in the wake of the lightning, revealing a series of inky-black, chaotic rifts.

Xu Xiaolan held her Dragon Sparrow Sword, and her aura soared as she slashed her sword toward the bolt of divine lightning that it left an afterimage in its wake!

The falling bolt of Golden Void Lightning was sliced in half just like that.

The two bolts of Golden Void Lightning curved through the air and continued to strike down toward Xu Xiaolan.

Xu Xiaolan’s Holy Flame Feather Cloak and True Dragon Wall appeared at the same time.

Boom!

An earth-shattering boom erupted.

Even after being blunted by the Holy Flame Feather Cloak and True Dragon Wall, the power of the divine lightning was still extremely fearsome, and it wreaked havoc on Xu Xiaolan’s body.

Xu Xiaolan gritted her teeth tightly as charred black patches appeared on her fair, jade-like skin. Her body swayed, but she was finally able to endure the lightning, and her aura became more powerful as a result.

“She’s already struggling this much, and you’re still not going to help her?” Ao Qingyu couldn’t help but ask.

He knew about An Lin’s title as Lord of Transcendence.

“Wait a bit longer.” An Lin looked at Xu Xiaolan with trust intermingled with his anxiety.

Xu Xiaolan didn’t need his help for now!

The seventy-ninth bolt of divine lightning lit up the entire heaven and earth with golden light.

After the golden light faded, Xu Xiaolan panted heavily as she used her sword as a crutch.

Her long, flowing hair was a little curled and charred as it fell to her waist. Her aura was diminished, but there was a hint of something more powerful being born emanating from within.

The eightieth bolt of lightning tore a massive rift several dozen kilometers in length through the dark clouds, from within which a boundless golden light flashed.

Terrifying lightning gathered overhead.

“Oi oi oi… Is this really a Return to Void Stage lightning tribulation? This is way too crazy!” Ao Qingyu’s eyes widened as he stared blankly at the scenes unfolding before his eyes.

He was only planning to watch this tribulation transcendence for a while before finding an excuse to leave.

However, he now felt like he was watching a suspenseful movie and could not even shift his eyes away.

An Lin shot a glance at him, but he didn’t say anything as he continued to stare at Xu Xiaolan.

He was feeling quite conflicted as well. To intervene or not to intervene?

From Xu Xiaolan’s eyes, he could see her yearning to take on this bolt of lightning by herself.

That’s right, Xu Xiaolan was planning to endure it herself and did not want An Lin to intervene.

But An Lin was very concerned!

The lightning in the sky above struck a sense of extreme danger into the hearts of even An Lin and Ao Qingyu.

Xu Xiaolan was only at the Soul Formation Pinnacle Stage, so it was clear to see just how terrifying this power would be to her.

Golden lightning tore through the heavens and descended from the sky, coloring the entire earth golden.

An Lin didn’t intervene in the end, and he looked on in silence as the lightning struck Xu Xiaolan.

Her jade dress danced around her like a blossoming jade lotus.

The golden bolt of lightning pierced through the heavens and struck her body.

She looked up with not even a single hint of fear in her eyes to welcome the bolt of divine lightning. She was both impossibly tiny yet valiantly courageous at the same time.

This instant was like a spectacular snapshot frozen in time, sending An Lin into a slight daze.

Boom!

The earth within a radius of five kilometers was destroyed by the Golden Void Lightning.

The eightieth bolt of Golden Void Lightning dissipated.

Xu Xiaolan stood resolutely with her sword in her hand.

That’s right, Xu Xiaolan had endured the terrifying bolt of tribulation lightning through her own strength!

“That’s incredible! To think that there is someone in this world capable of enduring such terrifying Golden Void Lightning!” Even the proud and arrogant Ao Qingyu was full of praise and awe.

“Of course! She’s my dao partner.” An Lin’s expression was filled with pride and smugness.

He looked at the woman before him with a smile. “Xu Xiaolan has already endured eighty of the eighty-one bolts of Golden Void Lightning. There is only one more bolt left, so she has this in the bag.”

His voice had only just fallen when a dragon’s roar suddenly erupted in the sky!

“Howl… !” A boundless dragon might erupted forth, and it seemed to be imbued with some sort of undefiable will of heaven and earth, making An Lin and Ao Qingyu’s hearts jolt in unison.

Immediately afterward, a golden lightning dragon tore through the clouds before descending upon the world.

Its emergence brought light to heaven and earth, as if it were the embodiment of light itself.

Its body was imbued with an extremely formidable might, which made onlookers’ hearts tremble.

This Golden Void Lightning dragon was super vicious!

Just as An Lin and Ao Qingyu were coming to terms with this lightning dragon, a clear cry erupted above the heavens as white lightning pulverized the dark clouds above, covering a radius of over fifty kilometers!

A white lightning Vermilion Bird stood proudly in the heavens as it looked down upon the lightning dragon below it.

The white lightning was imbued with the extreme power of yang. Even the space around it was beginning to twist and warp.

The white lightning Vermilion Bird and the Golden Void Lightning dragon circled in the sky above as they looked down at Xu Xiaolan.

“You were saying she had this in the bag?” Ao Qingyu spoke with an incredulous expression.

An Lin: “…”

He really wanted to slap himself!

Xu Xiaolan was initially full of confidence, but her features paled as she looked up at the lightning dragon and lightning Vermilion Bird in the sky, and she turned to An Lin with eyes that were pleading for help.

She was definitely not going to be able to survive this tribulation lightning on her own, so she was requesting reinforcements!

“Don’t panic, Xiaolan! I’m coming!”

An Lin flew to Xu Xiaolan’s side without any hesitation.

“What the f*ck?! Aren’t there supposed to be only eighty-one bolts of divine lightning? The lightning dragon and lightning Vermilion Bird in the sky are clearly two bolts! That’s a violation of the rules!” An Lin hurled abuse up at the heavens.

Was that the point?

Xu Xiaolan’s lips twitched as she provided an explanation, “The divine lightning comes from one’s dao intent. My tribulation lightning must have been influenced by the true intents of my two bloodlines, thereby resulting in a certain type of mutation…”

An Lin nodded. He had encountered a situation like this before.

Back when Liu Qianhuan was transcending her Soul Formation Stage tribulation, the divine lightning had transformed into a lightning sword. Perhaps that was also a mutation that had occurred as her sword intent was too powerful.

These types of circumstances would only arise when exceptional prodigies were concerned.

“Perhaps the power of my bloodlines should not exist. These heavens are refusing to tolerate my existence…” Xu Xiaolan raised her head to look up at the lightning, which struck despair into her heart as she muttered to herself.

An Lin held onto Xu Xiaolan’s soft, slender hand and consoled in a gentle voice, “Don’t worry, I won’t let anything happen to you.”

Xu Xiaolan was surprised by his actions. “What are you doing? You’re going to be blasted by lightning as well if you do that!”

“Did you know that tribulation lightning followed the law of conservation of energy as well? When the power of the lightning flows from your body to mine, it will be like both of us are enduring the tribulation lightning together. I can take half of the lightning’s power for you in that case,” An Lin explained.

Xu Xiaolan was astonished to hear this. “I don’t know anything because this is only my second tribulation transcendence, so you better not try to fool me!”

“I am the Lord of Transcendence renowned across the entire continent. I won’t fool you,” An Lin reassured with a serious expression.

Xu Xiaolan was a little skeptical, but she still allowed An Lin to hold her hand.

Right at this moment, the Golden Void Lightning dragon roared before crashing down toward the earth with an overwhelming might.

An Lin extended a finger, and a black mist revolved around his body as he pointed up at the lightning dragon in the sky.

Lightning Manipulation Technique!

Whoosh…

The dazzling golden dragon’s speed suddenly faltered as it fell slowly toward Xu Xiaolan.

An Lin’s Lightning Manipulation Technique was effective against Xu Xiaolan’s tribulation lightning!

Right at this moment, the lightning dragon had already appeared before Xu Xiaolan and roared as it descended.
