"I'll give you another soak. You'll have to wait for the rest. It's not good to always rely on external force to practice. You need to work on your internal strength."
Qin Yiyao nodded gratefully, muttered a few words of thanks, and after dinner, she couldn't wait to run back to her room to take a bath.
Gu Heng stayed downstairs, clearing the dishes and washing the clothes that the little girl had changed yesterday...
Actually, Shang Xiong is right.
I really look like a servant.
But he was also very excited. After all, he had changed from living alone to living with a maid. Gu Heng suddenly enjoyed the busy feeling of taking care of the household chores, as if he had returned to the time when he had just awakened the system. His full of fighting spirit and positive and enterprising mentality was back.
Although it only came back a little bit.
...
It was a deep night, the moon was hanging in the sky, its bright light spreading all over the earth.
Nianling Sect's mountain gate.
It was already midnight, but the atmosphere in the sect hall was solemn. Sect Master Zhu Ling and the three elders under him were all sitting upright. There were only four of them in the hall, and they were the four strongest people in the Nianling Sect, except for the supreme elder Xiao Ling.
"..."
Zhu Ling closed his eyes and remained silent. He put his hands together, his fingers occasionally rubbing against each other, and his brows were furrowed from time to time, showing that he was not in a calm mood at the moment.
The other three elders also had an expression of anxious waiting.
Because at this time, in the forbidden area in the back mountain of Nianling Sect, the supreme elder Xiao Ling was using the eighth-grade Qianlong Pill to break through to the tribulation period.
Today is the third day.
If nothing goes wrong, tonight, Xiao Ling will break through the shackles that have troubled him for more than a hundred years and embark on the journey of transcending tribulation!
Become the seventh Tribulation Crossing expert in the Sun Flame Dynasty!
At this moment, on the table in front of Zhu Ling, there was a letter of challenge!
"metropolitan."
In the end, it was the Third Elder Wu Rong who could not suppress the particularly silent yet anxious atmosphere and spoke in a low voice.
"speak."
Zhu Ling raised his eyes slightly and said indifferently.
"Should we make some backup plans so that after the Grand Elder fails, our Nianling Sect can still keep some sparks..."
Save some fire?
If the Supreme Elder fails in his attempt to overcome the tribulation, the destruction of the Nianling Sect is inevitable, but this is a sect, not a family, and there is no close blood connection between them.
If the sect were to disband, the disciples would naturally move elsewhere.
When a sect becomes weak, it is natural for its disciples to seek a place that can provide a better way out. This is human nature.
If there really are disciples who have deep feelings for the sect and are unwilling to surrender, Huang Li will kill them without hesitation, and the rest... humph.
Keeping the fire alive... this idea is meaningless.
When Zhu Ling's eyes showed some dissatisfaction, it was the great elder Mu Chong who spoke first. This old man, who looked older than Wu Rong, with a face as red as orange peel and dry hands, laughed and said:
"Old Wu, you don't want to preserve the fire for the Nianling Sect. You want to find a stable way to make a living for your bastard grandson."
Everyone present knew very well how Wu Rong spoiled and pampered his good-for-nothing grandson Wu Jie.
This guy, there's something else behind his words.
And it's not a good thing.
Facing the elder's sarcastic tone, Wu Rong was not afraid and retorted, "I heard that your granddaughter had left Nianling Sect yesterday and went to Chiyunzhou to look for your brother who is an official?"
"I just asked her to visit her great uncle. Why are you making such a fuss?"Mu Chong sneered.
"Both of you shut up."
As Zhu Ling opened his mouth, a burning aura made the hall feel like a furnace, making it even more tormented.
He raised his eyes, then tapped heavily on the letter of challenge with his fingers.
"That Huang Li wrote a note about the battle between him and the Grand Elder tomorrow and has already sent it out! I'm afraid that all the influential forces in the entire Kuyun Province are heading to the Jingku Valley now."
"We have no way to avoid this battle. The Supreme Elder cannot fail. If he fails, the Nianling Sect will surely perish!"
Zhu Ling stood up, looked around, and said coldly: "You two are still here, annoying people for such a useless thing!"
Mu Chong and Wu Rong were both well behaved at this time. If the sect leader got angry, even the two of them together would not be able to hold out. Seeing that the two old guys finally stopped arguing, Zhu Ling restrained his temper and sat back in his seat.
But at this moment, the faces of the four people suddenly changed!
Because they felt that a huge amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth was being rapidly drawn away and flowing towards the forbidden area in the back mountain.
Several people looked at each other, rushed out of the hall, flew to the top of the hall, and looked in the distance in the direction of the back mountain. They saw that under the dark night, the wind was rising and the clouds were surging, as if an unfathomable vortex was forming, and in the center of the vortex, there seemed to be a dragon soul soaring in the void, shrouded in thick purple air!
Dark clouds rolled over the sky.
The rolling clouds were getting closer and closer, as if they would fall down in the next second.
The already gloomy night sky seemed even more eerie and mysterious at this moment. Faintly, people could even hear the muffled thunder mixed in with the roar!
And in the sky above Xiao Ling, there were silver lightnings as thick as pillars and as curved as snakes.
This scene fascinated the elders present.
The visions of heaven and earth have appeared.
This is a sign of a breakthrough.
Zhu Ling and the others didn't dare to breathe. They just looked at the place where spiritual energy gathered in the distance, their hearts in their throats.
Xiao Ling stood in the pitch-black world, his clothes fluttering as he danced wildly in the wind!
"Buzz~"
A sudden flash of purple light!
A strange wave came from Xiao Ling's body, as if some shackles were broken at this moment!
A vast, majestic and domineering aura suddenly permeated the entire gate of the Nianling Sect!
The spiritual energy between heaven and earth is rioting wildly!
As if boiling, the madness gathered around Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling's consciousness expanded, taking in the entire sect into his mind.
"Hualala——"
A huge cyclone gradually formed around Xiao Ling. He waved his hands, and countless spiritual energy was absorbed into his body as the vortex gathered. A strange wave came from Xiao Ling's body.
The seventh Tribulation Crossing cultivator of the Riyan Dynasty appeared.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Ling and others finally felt relieved.
"God bless me, Nian Ling Zong!"
He laughed loudly, and the noise of Xiao Ling's breakthrough was so loud that many disciples who were sleeping or meditating in the middle of the night were awakened. They went out of the house one after another and saw the blurry and illusory vision in the night sky.
After hearing the clan leader's ecstatic voice, they understood.
"God bless me, Nian Ling Zong!"
Countless voices converge in the night.
Xiao Ling has entered the Tribulation Crossing Stage, so the outcome of tomorrow's battle in Jingku Valley will be shrouded in mystery, and no one will know what will happen until the last moment.
