At this moment, her mood was calm and her heart was firm.
She knew what she was going to do, what she was going to face, and the path she was going to choose...
As her eyes closed and the morning light rising from the eastern sea dyed the water a red-gold color, her hands gently turned, mobilizing the spiritual energy in her body, and then slowly clasped her hands into a lotus shape and placed them on her legs.
Pure spiritual energy gushed out from her body and diffused around her. The pressure of the ancient beast in her body was also released at this time, surging together with the pure spiritual energy in her body.
The surge of spiritual energy made her robe whistle, her black hair fluttering in the wind. The energy in the sky and the energy on the sea also gradually surged up into waves and gathered into clouds because of her.
Originally, the sky in the early morning was azure blue with no clouds in sight. But at this moment, as Feng Jiu's aura surged and her power and pressure were released, clouds condensed or floated in from afar, gradually gathering over the East China Sea, forming a large layer of dark clouds.
The morning light rising in the east has been obscured by thick clouds. Not a single ray of light can be seen shining out from the side. A strong wind blows over the sea, and the waves crash down, splashing up pieces of foam.
In the sky, muffled thunders were heard, one after another, as if gathering together to form a huge thunderbolt that took a long time to fall. Lightning flashed through the clouds with a crackling sound, but still no thunder fell.
In the distance, Du Fan, Leng Hua and Leng Shuang were watching with their hearts clenched in their throats and their palms were covered in sweat. They looked at their master, then at the dark cloud in the sky, and at the huge bolt of lightning that seemed to be gathering above her head and about to strike her down.
"Don't worry, the master will be fine. The master said everything is ready. She is confident and sure that nothing will happen. Don't worry, don't worry." Du Fan muttered to himself nervously, not knowing whether he was comforting the two people around him or comforting himself.
As time passed, at the first moment of Chenshi, a bolt of lightning fell with a crackling sound, and a thunderbolt also struck from the clouds with a rumble, accurately striking Fengjiu below.
“Boom!”
The sound of the thunder almost resounded through the entire sky, reaching the clouds, echoing in the sky, and alarming the strong men from all directions!
Just after the thunderbolt struck her, several lightning bolts fell from the sky, forming several electric pillars surrounding Fengjiu. The electric pillars formed by the lightning reached the sea surface below and went up into the clouds, making crackling sounds of lightning. There were also strands of electric current that burst out from the lightning pillars, making people feel creepy and their hearts tightened.
At the same time, the strong men from all directions were all startled when they heard the sound of thunder.
"Heavenly Thunder? Who is this person who has advanced to the next level?"
"The sound of thunder is different from the past. It seems..."
"Is this the thunder tribulation of ascension? How come someone else is ascending? A year ago, it was Mo Chen who ascended to the Ninth Heaven, and now a year has passed, could it be... Feng Jiu?"
