Chapter 663: Ravaging Lightning Vortex

Translator: Midasthefloof

Wu Yu was standing outside the Immortals' Viewing Platform, while Princess You Xue was still trapped within.

Under the illumination of the white light, the girl had sparkling skin, lustrous, long hair, and refreshingly bright eyes. When she wasn't overpowering and cold, she had a different type of disposition that was really attractive.

The girls on the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, such as Nangong Wei, Ji Lingshuang, and others, were a level below her.

After all, she was born in a martial cultivation kingdom, the Dark North Kingdom. Since birth, she was destined to be a genius of the heavens.

Moreover, she was different from Prince Le, who was just one of many princes that the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor had in the Yan Huang Ancient Country.

There weren't many princesses in the Dark North Kingdom.

It was especially so for her dark and black pupils. They were deep and cold while looking a little lost. Looking at her now, Wu Yu almost couldn't recall how she was scheming to snatch his advanced dao treasure and kill him.

Nonetheless, those were separate matters. She had attempted to harm Wu Yu and had now received her dues. Wu Yu was no longer bearing hatred towards her.

However, he had to admit that he had no means of sending her away.

Therefore, when the tunnel above him was fully completed, Wu Yu would likely leave if there was a route opened ahead. He would continue his journey in Taigu Immortal Path and he would be doing so alone.

As for Princess You Xue, she might have to remain behind alone. Whether she would commit suicide or endure endless loneliness would be up to her.

Although the seven mountains had collapsed and the earth above him was thick, Wu Yu had lots of puppets. He felt that they were almost there and therefore followed behind. The closer he was to the surface, the easier it was to dig. Eventually, when the White Deity charged out of the surface, Wu Yu saw the strong light from the purple lightning whizzing across the sky.

The tunnel was completed.

Since the seven mountains had collapsed, the sharp mountain of lightning above him had now become round. Wu Yu was now standing at the tallest point of the mountain of lightning after digging his way out.

When he collected the puppets and moved out of the tunnel, what he saw and felt was still those terrifying purple lightning bolts.

The entire mountain of lightning was densely covered in billions of bolts of lightning. Standing where Wu Yu was, the densely connected lightning network was only roughly a dozen zhang away from the mountain. In fact, it almost touched the walls of the mountain of lightning in some areas.

On the mountain peak, all the rocks and earth were torched black. Large amounts of lightning bolts were skipping through the earth and air like they were lightning serpents. They made ear-piercing screeches and were incessant. The moment Wu Yu got out, he could feel his ears ringing.

Looking up at the endless and unbreachable network of lightning, Wu Yu had a heachache. The situation here was different from before. Standing here, he couldn't find any way out of this mountain.

The endless and violent lightning network had him completely trapped within the mountain. Even the tunnel that led to above the skies had vanished.

"Where else could I go in this Taigu Immortal Path?

"I'm the only one left now. Could it be that my fate with the Taigu Immortal Path is only till here?"

Looking at this broad, mysterious, unbelievable world that had brought Wu Yu huge improvements and which had changed his destiny, Wu Yu was feeling a little unwilling to leave this place. Truth be told, he had a hard time climbing to the peak.

He was really apt in surviving in this world, especially so after getting the Floating Dreams Pagoda.

Honestly, he was feeling indignant to leave this place. The Taigu Immortal Path had too many secrets. He also wished to know what made this place up.

He recalled the Floating Dreams Pagoda.

"Oh, right! Since the Floating Dreams Pagoda allows me to enter so many places, would it allow me to get through the lightning net?"

Wu Yu had a sudden idea. With the decision to take the risk, he thought of letting the Eight Arms General throw him while he was in the Floating Dreams Pagoda with its huge strength.

“The lightning here originates from a frightening spirit design. Once in contact, you might be attacked by the entire spirit design. The Floating Dreams Pagoda might not be able to take this level of attack. Are you sure of it?" asked Ming Long.

"I have to give it a try. If it doesn't work, I wwill leave this place immediately," answered Wu Yu resolutely.

He was currently at his bravest.

He stood at the opening of the tunnel he had dug out. Looking down, one could see the Immortals' Viewing Platform represented by a little dot of light.

Princess You Xue was weeping sadly after seeing Wu Yu leave. Her every thought was in his purview.

Wu Yu didn't pay attention to her. He entered the Floating Dreams Pagoda and released the Eight Arms General puppet. The Eight Arms General held the Floating Dreams Pagoda and gathered strength. When it got the instruction from Wu Yu, it activated its spirit design and threw the Floating Dreams Pagoda towards the lightning net above its head.

Hu!

The crucial moment!

The Floating Dreams Pagoda turned into a flash of white light. The distance of roughly a dozen zhang was covered in an instant and Wu Yu could feel countless bolts of lightning crashing against the Floating Dreams Pagoda.

Bam!

What disappointed Wu Yu was that the Floating Dreams Pagoda failed to get through. Instead, it rebounded off and happened to fly in the direction where Wu Yu was previously. At this point, the Floating Dreams Pagoda was wrapped in purple lightning. It flew into the tunnel from the recoil. Wu Yu was in the Floating Dreams Pagoda and therefore couldn't stop it till it collided with the Immortals' Viewing Platform.

Pa!

The Floating Dreams Pagoda had even caused a crack to appear on the Immortals' Viewing Platform. Wu Yu had never expected the might of the purple lightning to be so great.

He got out from the Floating Dreams Pagoda and didn't give up. Seeing Wu Yu returning, Princess You Xue was exhilarated and even thought of running up to hug him.

It was when Wu Yu gave her a look that she stopped, looking aggrieved. She even flicked her tongue at him, making her look exceptionally adorable. Perhaps she thought Wu Yu was thinking of ways to get her out.

Within her thoughts of dismay, there was a tinge of surprise.

She seemed to have become a really docile lady, completely intoxicated by Wu Yu's dominance and authoritativeness.

However, Wu Yu didn't pay attention to her. Just as he was about to give it another try, he looked up above the tunnel and was shocked to see the huge lightning network above him changing!

The point where the Floating Dreams Pagoda hit before had numerous lightning bolts gathered, vaguely forming a huge, lightning vortex. A terrifying power was gathered at that spot.

"How can this be?"

Wu Yu was astonished! The lightning above him had suddenly metamorphosized. Even the place where the Eight Arms General was at previously was about to be swallowed by the violent and random purple lightning. Wu Yu could recall the puppet first.

Standing within the Immortals' Viewing Platform was dangerous. Once he encountered an emergency, he couldn't use his Taigu Immortal Talisman. Therefore, Wu Yu instructed Princess You Xue to throw him and the Floating Dreams Pagoda out. At this point, Wu Yu stood at the top of the Immortals' Viewing Platform and summoned back the Eight Arms General.

At this point, he was surprised to find that it wasn't just the area above him that had changed. He could sense huge tremors reverberating throughout the entire mountain of lightning.

At this point, the mountain was collapsing and the ground was cracking.

"I've just used the Floating Dreams Pagoda to bash against the spirit design once and that made something so severe happen? This mountain of lightning is collapsing?" Wu Yu was speechless at this point. He felt that this conjecture was exaggerated. However, what he felt now was the whole world collapsing. This wasn't just limited to this mountain.

And above the tunnel, where the Floating Dreams Pagoda had hit previously, a huge vortex had formed, and terrifying power had accumulated within. Perhaps the huge vortex was the reason why the mountain was shaking. In fact, Wu Yu seemed to see the sea of lightning within those thick, ominous clouds starting to sink at this point and assimilating into the lightning vortex above him.

Its power was frightening!

Despite being a long distance away, Wu Yu could feel his hair standing. He felt that if he were still standing above the tunnel, even 10,000 lives wouldn't be enough to survive.

This was a terrifying might Wu Yu unlike anything had never witnessed before. Luckily, this was not executed by someone, but was a mysterious change of the Taigu Immortal Path. The tunnel wasn't broad and he couldn't see inside too clearly. Moreover, the mountain was shaking immensely now and the tunnel would collapse at any moment!

It was beyond his imagination that the lightning vortex would grow so huge at this point. Perhaps it would even be able to devour the entire mountain.

However, the vortex didn't swallow the mountain. Instead, it exploded!

That's right! Just before the tunnel collapsed, Wu Yu could hear bolts of thick, purple lightning emitting ear-piercing screeches from the center of the vortex. The entire world was shaking violently and the direction where the purple lightning was falling was towards Wu Yu. In other words, if he had hesitated for a moment, he would have been blasted into smithereens by those lightning pillars.

The entire mountain of lightning was as big as the Clear Sky of Shushan. It was likely that Wu Yu would perish in it.

Wu Yu had truly not expected a collision with the Floating Dreams Pagoda to trigger such a huge commotion! He was stunned as well at this point.

"Hurry, let's go! We don't have time left!" Ming Long was scared out of her wits and screamed out instantly.

This was the might of the heavens and earth. Even if he hid himself within the Floating Dreams Pagoda, he wouldn't be able to avoid it. Its target might very well be the Floating Dreams Pagoda, and there was no way Wu Yu was going to discard the Floating Dreams Pagoda.

When he heard such horrified screams from Ming Long, Wu Yu knew that he had reached the point where he had to leave the Taigu Immortal Path.

He was decisive about it. After all, he was the only one remaining. Moreover, it was worth it to witness such a terrifying scene just before he left.

Although it was a little regrettable and he still wanted to continue exploring this mysterious world, he knew he had to make a quick decision to leave this place at this point.

"If there's an opportunity in the future, I'll definitely return to the Taigu Immortal Path!" Wu Yu put away his Floating Dreams Pagoda and everything else. Retrieving the Taigu Immortal Talisman to the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, he triggered it immediately.

Right below him was the Immortals' Viewing Platform. Under the might of the heavens and earth, even the mountain of lightning was smashed apart. The lightning above had swallowed the earth and rocks. The Immortals' Viewing Platform below Wu Yu's feet was also cracking.

In the eyes of Princess You Xue, she could see Wu Yu devoured by the glow of the lightning. After which, the lightning rained down on the barrier of the Immortals' Viewing Platform.

What Wu Yu witnessed at the last moment was Princess You Xue standing upright. She seemed to no longer be afraid. Wu Yu could feel her soul at peace. If she could leave the Immortals' Viewing Platform, this might be the best ending for her.

However, Wu Yu still saw her taking out her Taigu Immortal Talisman. Perhaps she was going to give it one last try. After all, the Immortals' Viewing Platform seemed to have been destroyed at this point.

Perhaps she might succeed.

As the light of Taigu Immortal Talisman shrouded him, Wu Yu returned to a place he was familiar with.

The origin of all his dreams! The Bipo Mountain Range!
