'You're about to go and fetch the bride.'
Bai Yu'er complained in her heart.
"It's okay. I'll be quick."
Song Shi said confidently. This time, he had used the attributes provided by the system to advance to the Soul Transformation realm. He did not need to break through bit by bit. Now that his Essence Soul had condensed, it had already stabilized on the spot. He only needed to transcend the tribulation.
With his physique, transcending the tribulation was easy and did not take much time.
Puff! Puff!
At this moment, the Supreme Yang True Fire on his body also underwent a transformation. Under his will, it gradually transformed into his own appearance.
The spirit fire condensed by the Crimson Crow race was in the form of a golden crow, so he naturally cultivated his own appearance.
The flames danced and formed a human figure beside him. It walked around as if it was alive. If he was willing, he could even let this fiery figure fight alone.
Strictly speaking, this thing could be used as an avatar with powerful spell damage.
"It's finally done. With this spiritual fire, my combat strength has increased by a huge margin."
Song Shi revealed a satisfied expression. As for Soul Transformation, it was just a matter of time for him.
Using the system's additional points would actually shorten the accumulation time. Therefore, this breakthrough was essentially natural.
Moreover, this breakthrough could be said to be basically relying on himself!
RUMBLE!
The sky above them suddenly darkened, and thunder echoed. The heavenly tribulation was quickly brewing.
"I will think of it as a bath before my wedding."
Song Shi took a glance and did not feel threatened at all. Instead, he was rather disappointed.
Bai Yu'er, Black Snake, and the old dragon were speechless. This heavenly tribulation was much more terrifying than what they had encountered when they broke through. But to Song Shi it was only a bath to him?
Were they too weak, or was this person too strong?
Song Shi took the initiative to rush into the thunderclouds. The lightning that could easily split the mountains and earth landed on his body, bringing with it a numbing feeling.
He opened his mouth and forcefully swallowed the lightning. He was prepared to wash his internal organs. His ferocious method frightened Bai Yu'er and the other demons.
"Oh my god, directly swallowing lightning. Even I don't dare to do this."
The old dragon was shocked beyond words.
"The internal organs are very fragile. Can he take it?"
Black Snake was puzzled. He felt that it was especially dangerous just by looking at it.
"Since Young Master is doing this, he must be confident."
Bai Yu'er shook her head. "Don't make such a fuss."
In the dark clouds, as if provoked by Song Shi, the lightning tribulation became even more ferocious.
In the blink of an eye, Song Shi was drowned by the lightning. Outsiders could not see what was going on inside.
"Ding… You have been killed by the lightning tribulation. Your internal organs have been strengthened. The reward has been delayed."
Song Shi tried to use lightning to temper his internal organs . But his weak internal organs were shattered, and he really died.
He was happy to do so. It was not easy for him to transcend to the tribulation, so he had to use the power of the tribulation to die a few more times.
Under his crazy control, the lightning tribulation finally lost its temper and dissipated in unwillingness.
Song Shi, who had enjoyed the "purification" from inside and out, looked even stronger. His muscles and bones were like jade, without any impurities.
He was still unsatisfied. "There are still too few lightning tribulations. There's only one in each major realm."
These words caught Bai Yu'er between laughter and tears. Be it humans or demons, which one of them was not afraid of the lightning tribulation? But Song Shi actually thought that it was too little. She really did not know what to say.
"It's about time. I'm done showering and changing. I'm going to pick her up."
With a thought, Song Shi condensed a set of Red Ceremony Robes with his Nomological powers. It looked rather festive. This was characteristic of a groom's appearance.
Half an hour later, the festive sound of gongs and drums sounded from the ship. Then, Song Shi rode a black snake and flew out. Behind him, eight blue flood dragons carried a large bridal sedan and headed for the palace.
The commotion caused by Song Shi's tribulation had already alarmed the cultivators in the Imperial City. Even Emperor Qian was at the door. When he saw Song Shi, who had just broken through, appear, his expression was complicated. "This kid is already at the same realm as me. I'm no match for him at all."
Qian Wuji, who was beside him, could not calm down. What kind of monster had he offended back then? Fortunately, he had become his brother-in-law now. Otherwise, it would be terrifying just thinking about what he might do now.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for obtaining such an immortal son-in-law!"
Virtuous Phoenix King seized the opportunity to suck up to Emperor Qian and Song Shi.
"Immortal son-in-law is a good title. With this person's ability, he has a high chance of becoming an immortal in the future."
"He's the reincarnation of an immortal. He must have been an immortal in the past."
"Immortals are indeed extraordinary. Look, the people carrying the palanquin are all flood dragons. Who on this continent can make this happen?"
"You're really giving His Majesty face."
The other Marquis echoed and fought to congratulate him.
Emperor Qian felt extremely honored. He chuckled and said, "Today is a joyous occasion for Great Qian. I announce that we will be tax-free for ten years. The entire country will celebrate."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Thank you, son-in-law!"
"With His Majesty and his son-in-law around, Great Qian will definitely be safe and prosperous."
Song Shi had just arrived when he heard someone give him a new nickname. It was quite impressive.
He smiled faintly. "Father-in-law, I'm here to marry Princess Wu Xi."
"It's really a double blessing today. My daughter is getting married, and son-in-law, you have reached the Soul Transformation realm. It's really the fortune of Great Qian to have you. I can also hand Xi'er over to you without worry."
Emperor Qian smiled. For his daughter to be able to marry such a person, she basically did not have to worry about suffering in the future.
He waved his hand behind him, and a red carpet spread out in the air all the way to the entrance of a certain palace. Then, two rows of maids walked out, and petals fluttered down. A woman in a phoenix crown and robe appeared.
This woman's face was rosy, and her skin was exceptionally delicate. Her face was perfect, and her red lips were moist. Her nose was high, and her phoenix eyes were filled with love. Her eyebrows were curved, and she wore a phoenix crown on her head. Her long robe fluttered in the wind. She had the gentle charm of a peerless beauty, but also the noble elegance that belonged to the royal family.
The well-dressed Wu Xi was radiant and stunning. No woman present could compare to her. She instantly became the center of attention.
Song Shi could not take his eyes off the beautiful scenery and smiled. "You're the most beautiful today."
Wu Xi bowed gracefully. "Thank you, husband."
"Son-in-law, I'll leave Xi'er to you."
Emperor Qian was rather melancholic.
"Okay."
Song Shi walked over and held Wu Xi's hand. He brought her into the bridal sedan and cupped his fists at Emperor Qian. "Father-in-law, we'll leave first."
Amidst the beating of gongs and drums, Song Shi left with the bridal sedan, leaving a deep impression on everyone in the Imperial City that would be difficult to forget for a long while.
On the way back to Jinzhou, the city was not as big as the Imperial City, but it was filled with festive colors. In the Song Residence, there were already cultivators from the eight countries gathered. They were all waiting politely for Song Shi's return.
The gifts they brought were piled up like a mountain. Many people were envious and understood that the Song family's power had soared immensely.
Song Hai's entire face was red with joy. Those who didn't know better would think that he was getting married.
He waited at the city gate with his men. When they saw the scene of eight dragons carrying a palanquin in the distance, not only him, but everyone present was shocked.
Especially the cultivators from the eight nations who were forced to come by Song Shi. At that moment, they could only sigh in their hearts, knowing that the gap between them was getting bigger and bigger.
Some people who were resentful completely suppressed their thoughts and accepted their fate.
"They're back. Everyone, get ready."
Song Hai shouted excitedly to welcome Song Shi back with his wife.
