Chapter 772 Decisive moment?
Meanwhile, at the peak of the hill where Lothur had chosen to face the heavenly rays...
At that instant, smoke billowed from the top of that mountain while the trees, undergrowth, and any other life there could no longer be seen for dozens of meters away from Lothur\'s body.
Everything had been destroyed by the bursts of spiritual power hitting his body, but also the energy emanating from his body.
After 15 blasts, Lothur no longer had any clothes on his body, and all his skin looked cracked like dry soil. Blood dripped from his facial orifices, and even with his eyes closed and his breathing under control, one could easily tell that Lothur was in a critical state.
The lightning bolts he had endured so far were not simple!
Each one was stronger than the last, but even the first in this series of attacks would be enough to injure newly advanced level 22 people.
Sensing that the 16th attack was coming in a second, Lothur contracted every muscle in his body and endured yet another electrifying wave without screaming, doing his best to withstand it without having his cells destroyed.
When the 19th attack formed in the air a minute later, two Sages were already in the vicinity of this area, looking in Lothur\'s direction with interest.
They both narrowed their eyes as they sensed that their target was about to successfully pass through the first catastrophe, something extremely difficult to do.
The 5th stage catastrophes were like a Russian roulette. Many of those who \'played\' this extreme \'game\' would lose their lives.
In fact, more than 40% of the Sages died when facing the first catastrophe, and more than 70% died when facing the second!
But even if Lothur succeeded, it didn\'t matter. After going through the first catastrophe, it would take him a day or two to recover.
These men thought that it was more than necessary for them to deal with Lothur!
However, they didn\'t know about Lothur\'s special power!
While enduring the 20th lightning bolt, Lothur had already noticed the arrival of visitors in the area.
\'Are they here for me? Tsk! I hope they don\'t regret it when they see that what doesn\'t kill me makes me stronger.\' He thought to himself, confident in his Physique\'s ability.
Lothur didn\'t know how much the bonus would be for going through this situation. But he would definitely get something, as he was truly between life and death.
He was in such bad shape that his Super Regeneration couldn\'t close the wounds on his body, and his Spirit Body was showing itself to protect him.
But even in such bad shape, he could think rationally and cautiously, see visitors in his surroundings, feel his own characteristics rising, and plan for the future.
\'Six more Soul Bones... You\'re really kind to bring them to me.\' As he prepared to withstand the 21st attack, his resistances and affinities were rising.
This was particularly true of his elemental lightning resistance and affinity. However, as much as the form of this catastrophe was electric through lightning, there was every element mixed in. There was even darkness there, and Lothur could feel it all improving, or rather purifying.

After achieving the feeling of the 22nd ray descending towards him, Lothur barely had any strength left in his body despite the improvements taking place within his being.
But still conscious, even immobile and practically powerless to demonstrate his mental firmness, he made the two Sages watching him feel goosebumps on their bodies.
\'Is he smiling?\' One of them wondered as he waited for the final attack of this tribulation, waiting for the moment when he could act and quickly end this person\'s life.
But when this person and the other level 23 Sage looked at Lothur in anticipation of the final moment of this catastrophe, they both felt that he was laughing, even though he hadn\'t changed his facial features at all.
What they felt went beyond what their eyes could see. They could feel Lothur\'s will, and at that moment, he was much happier than they were, people who faced 7 Soul Bones that were practically free to collect...
Strangely, they both became defensive, and even the one who wanted to interrogate Lothur a few moments ago changed his mind and decided that the best thing to do was to attack him mercilessly.
Finally, the 22nd attack struck Lothur\'s body and fell upon him with such force that even those two Sages who were more than 20 kilometers away from him felt a powerful wave of energy pass through them, destabilizing them.
At that moment, Lothur\'s seated body could no longer stand it and fell to the ground, falling onto his back as his breathing stopped briefly.
But it only lasted a second. As his back touched the black ground at the top of the hill, Lothur\'s heart began to beat strongly again, so loudly that even beings more than 50 kilometers away felt as if a drum had been beaten.
After noticing this sound, the two Sages quickly cut through the space and attacked Lothur\'s body with their fists and palms while he was still weak.
"Die!" The two shouted together, moving quickly through space as they brought their attacks closer to Lothur\'s fallen body.
As they did so, time seemed to change how it passed, as if everything had suddenly slowed down as they tried to get closer to their target\'s vital points.
Then, with deadly, dangerous attacks inches away from reaching his body, Lothur suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils wholly red and red patterns growing across his face.
"Give me your life force!" A terrifying voice came from Lothur\'s throat as his two hands grabbed the heels of the two men.
