Chapter 155 Transformation Successful
As the seventh bolt of lightning struck, Yun Yici clearly saw a blinding white light erupt from the center of the crater, and the outline of a young man gradually appeared within the light.
Before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, a thunderbolt even more ferocious than the previous seven lightning bolts struck down!
The white light and shadow that had gradually taken shape in the crater was startled by this and showed faint signs of dissipating.
Yun Yici and the others stared solemnly at the blurry white light in the minefield.
Rong Xuan said in a low voice, "Does he really have to take human form? Before... before the disciple's trial, we didn't discover his identity, and he was fine..."
Ning Tinglan said, "Senior Brother Mu has his own pride."
Mu Yunjian refined the Nine-Headed Serpent's bloodline, finally having the chance to shed his half-demon form.
I can't just stay a tiny rabbit, no bigger than a human's palm, for the rest of my life because I'm afraid of failing at transforming.
Wen Fuyue, who was closest to Muyunjian, was on tenterhooks, staring intently at the white light, ready to rush in and rescue the person at any moment.
The ninth tribulation lightning had been brewing for a long time but had not arrived, giving Mu Yunjian a chance to catch his breath.
In the minefield, a ball the size of a palm lay prone, trying to reform into human form.
He was dressed entirely in black, making it impossible to recognize his original appearance.
His skin and flesh were charred and torn open, and the blood that flowed out had long since congealed. Only the cinnabar-like Nine-Headed Serpent mark on his forehead became even more vivid under the baptism of the tribulation lightning.
The gloomy sky was filled with lightning and thunder, and the waves roared in the distance. I struggled to open my eyes amidst the twilight clouds.
He saw his own claws twitching and spasming incessantly due to the lightning tribulation.
Unlike the slender, fair hands of a human cultivator, his forepaws are now black and short, unable to clench into a fist or wield a sword, let alone protect those he wants to protect or do what he wants to do.
With his last breath, Mu Yunjian crawled up from the scorching hot ground, and at the same time, the figure floating on him gradually became clearer.
However, just as he was about to take shape, the ninth tribulation lightning struck!
Even Di Zhao, who usually clashed with Mu Yunjian, couldn't utter a single word of contempt upon seeing his current miserable state.
To everyone's surprise, as the ninth tribulation lightning struck, the figure that had been floating in the air and gradually solidified transformed into a colossal, majestic nine-headed beast the moment it came into contact with the heavenly lightning.
The nine colossal beasts stood tall and imposing, with the bodies of bulls and the tails of dragons. Their armor was made of the hardest black iron in the world, and their nine terrifying and domineering heads resembled snakes and dragons, with majestic whiskers.
His nine pairs of eyes were bloodshot, and his enormous body filled the entire mine crater.
The sudden appearance of this behemoth caused Yun Yici to exclaim in surprise, "It's the Nine-Headed Serpent!"
Ning Tinglan and Wen Fuyue had both seen Jiuying before, so they weren't too surprised.
Rong Xuan had heard of it but never seen it before, and was still startled when he suddenly saw this giant beast appear.
Even the emperor was intimidated by the Nine-Headed Serpent's power and subconsciously took a step back.
The next moment, the nine proud heads of the giant beast that shrouded the minefield simultaneously rose, letting out an angry roar at the thunderous sky!
This roar caused the heavens and earth to tremble, and the wind and waves to surge. It was his counterattack against the way of heaven, a demonstration, and a provocation!
Although Yun Yici and the others were far away, they were still nearly shaken to the point of having their meridians ruptured by the deafening roar.
Fortunately, Emperor Zhao saw that the situation was not good and together with Li Shao, he flew away two by two of Yun Yici and her fellow disciples, along with the four others, far away.
Once they took off and were floating in the air, Yun Yici looked down and realized that the ground they had been on was beginning to crack inch by inch.
Moreover, the cliff here was teetering on the brink of collapse, and looked as if it were about to crack and crumble.
Yun Yici sensed something was wrong. She looked up at the imperial edict that was holding her and said, "The place where my senior brother is undergoing tribulation is not far from the teleportation array we used to come to the demon realm."
"I'm worried he'll destroy the teleportation array."
The human realm and the demon realm are thousands of miles apart. If this convenient passage between them is destroyed, they don't know when they will be able to return to the human realm.
The place Rong Yan originally chose for Xue Lian to transform into human form was excellent.
Rong Yan marked the location of the teleportation array within the safe zone so that lightning could not strike the teleportation array.
Then, the place where the transformation took place was not far from the teleportation array, making it convenient to return to Kunlun in time after the transformation.
If Mu Yunjian had transformed normally, he certainly wouldn't have destroyed the teleportation array. Wen Fuyue never expected that Mu Yunjian's transformation would directly activate the Nine Infant Bloodline.
With a creature as large as the Nine-Headed Serpent, destroying this cliff would be a piece of cake.
Emperor Zhao frowned and said, "The teleportation array was carved on the cliff by that demon cultivator, so it is impossible to move it."
"If the teleportation array is destroyed, we'll find another one to go back."
Yun Yici was speechless and choked with emotion. He could only pray that the ninth tribulation lightning in the twilight clouds would be completed and that he would be able to take human form.
however!
After nine tribulations of lightning, the Nine-Headed Serpent stood tall and proud, and the tenth tribulation of lightning arrived!
The tenth tribulation lightning bolt was so powerful it seemed to destroy the heavens and the earth, transforming into a deep purple electric net that lunged at the roaring Nine-Headed Serpent.
Yun Yici's worry for Mu Yunjian instantly intensified. She said, "Wasn't it supposed to be nine lightning tribulations taking form? How come there's a tenth one?"
Huai Chuan explained in a timely manner: "Perhaps it is because of the Nine-Headed Serpent. Ancient ferocious beasts like the Nine-Headed Serpent face ten heavenly lightning strikes and are in great danger when they want to transform into human form."
"This is a good thing. It means that your senior brother has a good fusion with the Nine-Headed Serpent's essence and blood, and has been recognized by the Heavenly Dao. In time, he will surely become a great demon no less than the Nine-Headed Serpent."
Yun Yici smiled bitterly. She knew that Mu Yunjian would become a very powerful demon once he survived this ordeal, and then it would be difficult to punish him.
The system chattered on, "I remember now, host, do you remember?"
"Didn't the original form of Mu Yunjian never get mentioned in the previous plot? It was only mentioned that he was a white auspicious beast."
"I guess it was when Mu Yunjian was undergoing his tribulation that he used the power of the Nine-Headed Serpent to enhance his own image and conceal his true identity, which is why he was able to subdue so many demon cultivators as his underlings."
Yun Yici was staring at Jiuying, who had been struck by lightning, and didn't say anything more when she heard the system's words.
In the storyline, the only relatively clear part of Mu Yunjian's rise to power is the part where he is with the female lead.
However, this was two hundred years ago, so it has almost no reference value.
The Nine-Headed Serpent, struck squarely by lightning, struggled against the lightning for a while before gradually fading away.
Yun Yici then realized that the majestic Nine-Headed Serpent was actually an illusion!
The instant the Nine-Headed Serpent phantom disappeared, everyone saw the white-clad youth beneath it.
Mu Yunjian has successfully transformed into human form!
Before Yun Yici and the others could even rejoice, they saw the young man in white fall straight down.
Fortunately, the thunder was muffled and showed signs of fading away.
Wen Fuyue rushed to Mu Yunjian's side and fed him a recovery pill.
Upon seeing this, the emperor, along with Li Shao and several others, landed on the cracked stone wall.
Seeing that Mu Yunjian's breathing was steady, Yun Yici said with relief, "This place is close to the teleportation array, we can't let Wan Nian undergo his tribulation here."
