Chapter 1123: Chapter 1122: My Fate Is In My Own Hands, Not Dictated By Heaven!

Lu Yang’s face was scorched black, and upon hearing Meng Jingzhou shout about being able to recite the Immortal’s Quotations backwards, he instantly turned pale as a ghost.

This intensified third round of Thunder Tribulation looked like it was set to annihilate someone.

He had originally intended to set Old Meng up, but instead, he had trapped himself miserably.

"Damn it, Old Lu, you set me up!" Recalling the peculiarities of the third round of Thunder Tribulation, Meng Jingzhou instantly realized he had been played.

So much for the Yingtian Immortal Device favoring Old Lu—it was clearly Old Lu who had somehow provoked the Yingtian Immortal, resulting in himself getting dragged into the mess!

And the likely reason was probably found in this "Immortal’s Quotations"!

"It was you who told me to sweet-talk in front of the Yingtian Immortal, to give you a hand!"

"I didn’t tell you to drag me down with you!"

"How can it be called dragging down, this is a great opportunity, I only pulled you in because we’re good brothers. Don’t you know? Ancient Immortals have said that Thunder Tribulation is a test from the heavens, the more powerful the Tribulation you face during your ascension, the more benefits you’ll get after succeeding. Alright, I can’t make up any more..."

Their voices were quickly drowned out by the thunderous roaring.

The new round of Thunder Tribulation was incredibly fierce, causing the entire Seek Dao Sect to tremble. The range of the Tribulation expanded, and areas that were once safe were now within the radius of the Thunder Tribulation, with Disciples of Dao Seeking Sect who had been watching from a close distance turning to run while still looking back at the two passing their Tribulation.

"Truly worthy of being Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Meng, still in the mood to dance amidst such a fierce Thunder Tribulation."

"Yeah, yeah, I really don’t know if we can be as calm as them when it’s our turn."

"Let’s all do our best."

Seeing Lu Yang and the other dancing provocatively under Thunder Tribulation, countless Disciples of Dao Seeking Sect were greatly inspired, determined to become a Great Cultivator who could stand tall just like Lu Yang!

"Since the second and third rounds of Thunder Tribulation have no names, why not name them after the two Junior Brothers?"

"That makes sense, the second round of heavenly thunder could be called Jingzhou Thunder Tribulation, and the third round, Lu Yang Thunder Tribulation!"

"Great names, great names. To leave one’s mark in history with the name of heavenly thunder, surely the two Junior Brothers would be pleased."

"Old... Lu... you... wait... for... it... when... I... get... out... I’ll... definitely... make... you... pay..." Right now, Meng Jingzhou could hardly speak, even transmitting via spiritual sense was not smooth, his body convulsed uncontrollably like he was being electrocuted.

"Wait... for... me... to... find... Fairy... to... save... me..."

"You... hurry... go..."

"Fairy, save me!" Left with no choice, Lu Yang ran to the Spiritual Space to report and ask for help.

However, Qinghe stood at the gate of the Soybean Imperial Palace, blocking Minister Lu Yang: "Shh, don’t shout, the master is already asleep. Don’t disturb the master’s rest; we can talk when the master wakes up."

"I have urgent matters to report!"

"Let’s talk when the master wakes up."

Seeing Lu Yang come back to his senses, Meng Jingzhou quickly asked about the situation: "What did the Immortal say?"

Lu Yang’s face was full of grief and resentment, his heart aching: "The Historian rules all, the nation shall not be a nation!"

To think that he, who had devotedly accompanied Fairy Immortality through thick and thin, establishing the Great Bean Dynasty and becoming the first in the line of success, would be ruined by the rise of the Historian!

"Ah?"

The Meng Family was the most prominent influential family and also a family of officials. Meng Jingzhou, well-versed in the intrigues of government, was at a loss trying to connect ’Historian’ with ’autocratic rule’.

Old Lu’s antics with the Immortal seemed quite varied.

"Let’s try the new technique," Lu Yang said gravely. It was originally prepared for Old Meng, but now it seemed it had to be used on Yingtian Immortal first!

In an instant, Lu Yang’s body was enveloped in Sword Qi, bravely confronting the Thunder Tribulation. The pure and spotless white Thunder Tribulation struck Lu Yang, allowing Meng Jingzhou, who stood beside him, to see Lu Yang’s bones.

However, Lu Yang knew the limits of his physical body all too well; if Old Meng couldn’t withstand it, he was even less likely to succeed.

Yingtian Immortal, floating in the sky, watched Lu Yang with confusion, not understanding what the youngster was attempting to do.

Then he watched, eyes wide, as Lu Yang transformed from a person into a sword.

"?"

Yingtian Immortal rubbed his eyes, thinking he was seeing things.

Lu Yang once again became the Green Peak Sword, fiercely unleashing a Sword Qi strike, clashing with the thunder, still unable to overcome the Thunder Tribulation.

Lu Yang’s body became the sword, with the sword tassel on the hilt bound with the Identity Jade.

The Identity Jade gently swayed, and the Green Peak Sword, Inheriting Shadow Sword, Seven Star Sword Set appeared, surrounding Lu Yang like loyal guards.

"Ten Thousand Swords Returning to Origin!"

Lu Yang called out the Sword Skill in his heart, merging with the nine Immortal Swords, significantly boosting his momentum. He fiercely slashed out a Sword Qi, shattering the thunder!

"Liu Ningxuan’s Unity of Man and Sword?" Yingtian Immortal wore a strange expression, immediately thinking of the original owner of the Inheriting Shadow Sword, Liu Ningxuan, who invented the "Unity of Man and Sword."

But Lu Yang’s approach was clearly different from Liu Ningxuan’s; he had created his own unique version of Unity of Man and Sword.

Even though Lu Yang had successfully shattered a strand of Thunder Tribulation, more thunder followed one after another, leaving Lu Yang overwhelmed.

"Supreme Dominance Fist!" Meng Jingzhou turned into a figure with three heads and six arms, shouting the "Immortal’s Quotations" in his heart, exuding an air of unrivaled supremacy.

The disciples watching were inspired by the desperate fighting spirit of Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou. They felt as if they were facing the Thunder Tribulation themselves, their blood boiling, Qi and Blood surging, excitement turning their necks red.

"Our fate is in our own hands, not in heaven’s! Senior Brother Lu, Senior Brother Meng, you’re sure to defy the heavens!"

It was unclear who started it, but what began as just a few voices turned into a roar of encouragement from all around, cheering the two on.

"Our fate is in our own hands, not in heaven’s! Senior Brother Lu, Senior Brother Meng, you’re sure to defy the heavens!"

While still contending with the Thunder Tribulation, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou stiffly turned their heads, disbelievingly looking at their well-meaning junior brothers and sisters.

Damn it, don’t shout nonsense! We’ve always been generous to you all!

And Elder Brother Dai, what are you so excited about? You’re shouting the loudest!

"Oh ho, quite a loud cheer!" Yingtian Immortal had thought that enough was enough, but when he heard the people around cheering on, he suddenly felt invigorated, rolling up his sleeves to continue manipulating the Thunder Tribulation.

He always enjoyed striking at those who declared their fate was in their own hands, not in heaven’s. Did they really think his Thunder Tribulation was vegetarian?

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were evenly matched in their struggle against the Thunder Tribulation, but just as they reached a delicate balance, the power of the thunder increased once more. Both were struck so hard by the Thunder Tribulation that they wished for death. Lu Yang was hit back to his original form, with the nine Immortal Swords scattered around him.

The two fell head-first into the ground, looking like newly planted saplings, twitching from the lightning strikes.

Using their palms to prop themselves up, they burst from the ground and lay there, watching the final Thunder Tribulation brewing in the sky, the corners of their eyes twitching.

"Old Meng, I’m glad to have known you in this lifetime. I’ll see you in the next," said Lu Yang.

Meng Jingzhou with a mournful expression replied, "Don’t get to know me next life. Find someone else to trap."

"Old Lu, you know I’ve always respected Yingtian Immortal. How on earth did you manage to provoke him?"

"Oh, you want to know?" Lu Yang, as if seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, suddenly perked up.
