Episode 1 I'm finally saved!
At the end of March, spring rain fell slowly and densely, bringing a moist breath to the early spring that had been dry for almost a month.
In the sky, the dull and rumbling thunder awakened the world between heaven and earth, those animals that had been hibernating since winter also awakened the world between heaven and earth, the vitality hidden in the severe cold winter.
Facing the gentle spring rain, almost everyone can feel that refreshing and unique breath of spring, a comfortable mood, which has been unstoppable, unfolding from the depths of every person's heart.
"Ding, ding, ding..." In the evening, accompanied by a sudden ringing sound echoing through the campus, immediately followed by a burst of noisy and chaotic sounds coming from within the campus.
Every day at this time, it's always the most lively time in school. School is over, those who live near home go back home, those who live far away either board or have family members pick them up, cars and people come and go, bustling with activity nonstop.
Here is a high school called Longtan City No. 2 Middle School, with about 4,000 to 5,000 students on campus, which can be considered a large-scale high school. To say that Longtan City No. 2 Middle School is one of the best high schools in the city, except for No. 1 Middle School. In previous years, the college entrance examination enrollment rate has always ranked among the top three among all high schools in the city, and occasionally, it can even surpass No. 1 Middle School.
At this moment, not far from the school gate, in the middle of the road, a thin boy stood in the gentle spring rain, letting the rain soak his school uniform, and looked up at the sky with a bewildered expression.
"Look! Isn't that Li Yan, the idiot? Standing in the middle of the road on a rainy day without even using an umbrella. Is he not afraid of getting his clothes all wet?" A passing student exclaimed with excitement, as if Columbus had just discovered a new continent.
"Shut up! You've already called him an idiot, what would an idiot know about these things!" Next to him, someone couldn't help but raise their middle finger at him.
"Alas... how can you say that someone is also a weak-minded person, it's quite pitiful to talk about it......" A girl with a loving heart couldn't help but complain out loud after hearing everyone's discussion.
"It's said that a pitiful person must have something hateful about them, tsk... I also seem to have heard that this Li Yan is not only an idiot but also a wild child born out of wedlock, a bastard!"
By his ears, waves of ridicule and abuse kept coming, but the thin boy standing in the middle of the road seemed to be completely unaware, quietly looking at the sky, with a bewildered expression in his eyes.
Yes, confusion... Li Yan was confused at this moment, because not long ago, he was still a top master who traveled freely in various star domains, the Eight Tribulations Scattered Immortal. Looking around the vast universe, he was also one of the top masters, only needing to pass through the last tribulation to ascend and become an immortal, with the same lifespan as heaven and earth, and revered by all things!
But now? He was suddenly engulfed by a bolt of lightning in the midst of thunderclouds, and then abruptly arrived on this strange, primitive, and backward planet, attaching himself to a frail young boy whose soul had just dissipated.
Wild child, illegitimate child, weak-minded... all these labels were placed on that young boy's shoulders, like a great mountain, weighing him down until he could hardly breathe.
Since he had memory, he has been living in others' ridicule. As time went by, he became aware of it, but even he himself couldn't help feeling inferior.
He was a child without a father, and his mother was driven out of the house because of him. He wandered on the streets, relying on picking up trash to raise him bit by bit, but he was still a child born with defects.
Yes, he is weak-minded. It's not that he is too stupid, but rather his body is naturally frail and can't keep up with reactions. So whatever he does, he reacts slower than others. Over time, in other people's eyes, he became weak-minded.
But he knew that he was not stupid. At least, in his first year of high school, he had been admitted to Longtan City No. 2 Middle School, a top-notch high school, based on his own ability.
Although he has worked very hard, he still can't avoid being ridiculed and mocked. His fate is like a tea table, full of tragic cups!
As the knowledge of high school became more profound and complicated, he spent more and more effort, his weak body could not support it at all. By the time he reached the third year of high school, this phenomenon became more and more apparent, plus the ridicule and sarcasm from others, as well as the failure of the previous mock exam, finally, just recently, this young man who had been tragic his whole life, exhausted his energy, and his soul dispersed.
It just so happened that Li Yan, the Great Scatterer of the Ninth Heaven Tribulation, suddenly discovered that due to a cosmic explosion occurring not far from his star domain, the power of the thunder tribulation he was facing had actually increased by a factor of two!
Thus, Li Daxian also became a tragic figure, his primordial spirit exploded by the thunderous power of the ninth heavenly tribulation. He could only watch as his immortal body disintegrated, and then his residual spiritual consciousness was swept away by the cosmic storm into a spatial rift. After many cycles, he finally descended onto this unfamiliar planet, reincarnating in this weak and newly deceased body.
Blocked meridians, declining blood and energy, weakened mental acuity, impoverished family... apart from a name that was the same as his own, and a single mother, Li Yan had no other gains.
"Good heavens, are you kidding me?!" Li Yan slightly opened his mouth, wanting to scold the guy, but he was miserably weak and discovered that his current body was too frail. Especially just now, the original owner of this body had died from exhaustion due to being too weak. So at this time, he didn't even have the energy to speak loudly, let alone yell at the heavens.
"No, my remaining yuan Shen is not enough to choose another person for reincarnation. It seems that I must find a place to attract the heavenly thunder and go through a heavenly tribulation...". Listening to the dull sound of spring thunder in the sky, Li Yan's heart had already made up his mind in an instant. He took a deep breath, stored up the remaining energy, then stretched out his hand and pressed several acupoints on his body with force.
Suddenly, as if he had received a great stimulus, the blood and energy in his body were all activated in an instant, his face turned bright red, and his strength seemed to increase several times.
However, as a super old monster who has cultivated for countless years, Li Yan Li Daxian deeply knows that this is only a temporary illusion. Moreover, this kind of stimulating vital energy method belongs to the forbidden technique. If he can't replenish the lost essence and spirit within a limited time, after not long, when his qi and blood are exhausted, he will also be finished.
The top priority at the moment is to find a place that can withstand the power of thunder, and let oneself survive the first calamity. In short, one must first save their own life before anything else.
At this time, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Fortunately, his major in Scattered Immortal, although the physical body was gone, at least there was still a primordial spirit that could exist forever, transcend time and space, reincarnate, and now at least he could forcibly cross the Heavenly Tribulation again to cultivate the Immortal Way.
If it were the way of human immortals, externally cultivating the physical body, that would be a tragedy. Because with his current physique, wanting to strengthen himself through ordinary external cultivation methods is basically impossible unless he has some kind of rare and precious treasure to assist him.
Suddenly, Li Yan found that hundreds of meters away from the roadside, there was a pole with a height of several meters, standing upright, and on it, some small advertisements were stuck in a messy way, which looked even more dirty and disorderly after being washed by the rain.
However, when it came to his own life, Li Yan couldn't care about anything else at this time. He mustered up the remaining strength and rushed to the utility pole in one breath. With both hands open wide, he tightly hugged the utility pole to his chest.
"Rumbling...!" In the sky, thunder raged and roared, this was the fury of heaven and earth, the unstoppable power of creation and destruction!
Generally, the scattered immortals who cultivate their spirits and souls internally are most afraid of the power of heavenly tribulation thunder. Any scattered immortal whose cultivation has not reached the realm of thunder tribulation will never dare to randomly release their yuan Shen during the outbreak of wind, rain, and thunder, because every time the thunder responds, the rolling thunder sound that is transmitted from the sky afterwards carries the ultimate destructive and creative power. The collision of these two intentions can kill any scattered immortal who has not crossed the thunder tribulation alive.
Fortunately, Li Yan, although he didn't pass the last ninth tribulation of thunder, was at least a half-nine-tribulation existence. He had already developed immunity to the power of thunder and lightning. Moreover, his remaining primordial spirit power, though scattered, barely reached the level required to pass the first tribulation of thunder.
At that moment, his primordial spirit dispersed and transformed into an invisible beam of light, shooting up into the sky, drawing down the power of thunder, following the electric pole straight down, and landing on his physical body.
Destruction! Creation! Familiar power!
At this moment, Li Yan could no longer suppress the joy in his heart and couldn't help but let out a loud and excited cry: "I'm finally saved!"
In an instant, passersby and students couldn't help but stare at him with a mixture of astonishment, bewilderment, mockery, and disdain in their eyes.
