Chapter 590 Cultivation Diversion.



Shi Lang was in pain. The lightning inside his body was raging madly and destroying him from the inside out. Mei Lingyao was gazing at the law enforcement elder with enraged eyes. Her hand gripped her sword's hilt so tight that her palm appeared pale. She said, "If anything happened to Shi Lang, I may not act against you, but Tian Long will kill you."

Ling Ye snorted and said, "I will take him inside the valley, and till I come back, none of you need to leave."

The people did not have the guts to say anything to him. Ling Ye was livid, his face was calm, and his traditional smile was missing. This showed that Shi Lang was very important. Ran Quiji doubted his life at this moment. He regretted his actions for stopping Shi Lang. However, he also thought about how this guy suddenly had a cultivation diversion.

Mei Lingyao said, "Go quickly, Senior Brother."

Ling Ye waved his hand and wrapped Shi Lang with his spirit energy. Then he walked ahead inside the formation. Shi Lang tried hard to control this state's destruction scale, even if he found the complete cultivation sutra. He will have to do two things at the same time.

One would be to comprehend the sutra, and the other would rein the lightning raging inside him. Ling Ye took Shi Lang to the depths of the valley. This place was completely desolate, except for an old man sitting on a huge boulder. This person did not emit any spiritual fluctuation. He looked nothing different than a mortal at the edge of life and death.

Ling Ye placed Shi Lang on the ground, leaned before the old man, and kowtowed. He said, "Ling Ye greets Third Ancestor."

The old man opened his eyes slowly and nodded. He said, "First brother had told me this child will come here soon, but I did not expect him to visit the valley in such a situation."

Ling Ye nodded and said, "Third Ancestor, please help us. If anything is to happen to this boy, Senior Tian Long will not let us go."

The old man stroked his beard and said, "That kid Tian has been getting very pompous since the last time I saw him. Do not worry. He would not do anything excessive even if anything were to happen. Go, stabilize the situation outside, and no matter what happens here, you and the rest of the elders are not supposed to step in here."

Ling Ye nodded solemnly, and he left the valley in an instant. The old man gazed at Shi Lang and blew a breath at him. The raging lightning calmed down in an instant. The terran was shocked. He did not expect such a thing when dragged here. He tried to sit but found that it was not his lightning element but his entire body that had lost the capability to move.

The old man smiled and said, "Do not worry, kid. You have done a great favor to the sect already. Let me hand you the thing you have been anxiously seeking here."

A light flashed from the old man's brows and burrowed inside Shi Lang's forehead. The next moment, his mind was flooded with information about the Lightning Sutra.

...

Ling Ye stood facing the elders and the guardian disciples outside the valley. His gaze was locked on Ran Quiji. He asked in a somber tone, "Do you realize what you have done?"

Ran Quiji did not speak. In the meantime, when Ling Ye was inside the valley, he had crushed the summoning jade in his pocket, and his master was on his way. He did not have the right to face the sect master, but the second elder of the Law Enforcement peak did.

As Ling Ye stopped speaking, the second elder arrived and frowned upon sensing the tension in the air. He could not put one and one together. He looked at the Peak Master of the Law Enforcement peak and asked, "Peak Master, what happened?"

Peak Master sighed and said, "Your disciple attacked a core disciple from the sword peak when he was trying to enter the forbidden valley. That disciple had been permitted to enter the sect in exchange for a great merit. However, Ran Quiji stopped him and attacked the young man.

If that were all, this matter would not have erupted like this. That disciple was in a crucial stage of his cultivation, and after fighting demonic cultivators for a month, his cultivation attribute was out of control. He required special training, so the ancestor had allowed him to enter personally. However, this sudden encounter caused him to suffer a diversion, and his foundation became unstable. At this moment, he is facing a life-and-death situation inside."

The second elder was shocked and could not help but ask, "Is this disciple that you are talking about, Shi Lang of the Sword Peak? The terrible genius who slayed four hundred Demonic cultivators?"

The people nodded, and Mei Lingyao snorted. The second elder's forehead was covered with cold sweat. Ran Quiji was facing something even more terrible. He did not expect that he would stop someone like Shi Lang. His face was drenched with blood, and his legs turned soft as he knelt on the ground.

He did not wait for his master and kowtowed to Ling Ye as he said, "Sect Master, I am a sinner. I was blinded by my urge to compete, and I stopped Senior Brother Shi from entering. I accept the complete responsibility of his situation. You can punish me however you want to."

The people were surprised to see him like this. The young man had been refusing to repent until now. Mei Lingyao said coldly, "It is not wrong for you to compete, let alone the others, even if he would not oppose you. However, you need to understand the situation before acting in the future. It is not our weakness that causes us to suffer but foolishness.

If you are to act like a rowdy, then be strong. Otherwise, you will end up dead, and even those close to you will suffer. Look at the fellow disciples who were following you. If Shi Lang were to take hold of his sword, you all would have died. Tch, I do not know what to say. Senior Brother, it is up to you to punish him."

Ling Ye cast a gaze at Ran Quiji and then at his master. He asked, "Junior Brother Yan, do you think one month in the seclusion cave will be enough for Disciple Ran to focus and think about what he just did and how he should make up for this in the future?"

Elder Yan was shocked because this was not a punishment but a simple sentence to cultivate and live in seclusion. He did not know what to say. Ling Ye said, "After one month, he will go down the mountain and hunt seventy spirit beasts before he is allowed back in the sect. Do you agree?"

Elder Yan nodded and said, "I agree. The beasts he hunts should be similar to his cultivation realm and higher. Lower ones do not pass until they are a part of a pack."

The people nodded, and Elder Yan said, "Did you hear Xiao Qui?"

Ran Quiji raised his head and nodded with red eyes. He was feeling guilty. The Spirit Heart sect has always been lenient on those who confess their faults. He did not expect them to allow him to advance like this.

He nodded repeatedly and said, "I will go to the caves immediately."

Ling Ye nodded and said, "I do not wish to hear even a whiff about what happened today in the sect. Do you understand?"

The people nodded, and Mei Lingyao said, "My sword peak will challenge the Spear peak once Shi Lang recovers."

The spear peak master smiled and said, "I will welcome you with open arms, Junior Sister."
