"Ahem!" Zhu Yao had no choice but to stand out. "Umm … This little brother, that 'Tasyoluk' Secret Realm only opens once every five hundred years. If you don't come out in time, you will have to wait another five hundred years for the entrance to open. Furthermore, practitioners above the Nascent Soul stage are unable to enter. Aren't you making things difficult for me by saying that? "
Wang Xuzhi clenched his fists, as though he was suppressing something with all his might. He completely ignored her, and after a while, he cupped his fists and said to Yu Yan. "If that's the case, please forgive this disciple for offending you. This disciple is here to confirm if big sis Zhu Yao has returned. Looking at it now … ancestral-grand uncle actually doesn't have the method to enter the Secret Realm. Then, I will search for it myself. This disciple will take his leave! "
As though he had decided on something, his expression grew even more determined. Without the slightest hesitation, he turned around and left.
Zhu Yao's heart trembled when she saw his expression. This little wimp couldn't possibly be thinking of forcefully barging into 'Tasyoluk', right? The barrier outside the Secret Realm could even block a Demigod-stage practitioner. If an Azoth practitioner like him were to forcefully barge in, his body would probably shatter into pieces.
Suddenly, she had a bad premonition, and the words to stop him blurted out just like that. "Little wimp, come back here!"
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly turned his head back. With widened eyes, he looked at her with a look of disbelief.
"…" Uh, is it too late to regret now?
"Big sis … Zhu Yao!?"
As expected, it was too late.
A certain master turned his head as well, and cast a scornful look at her. He shook his head with an exasperated look.
Uh … Why couldn't she change her bad habit of having a cheap mouth?
"Big sis Zhu Yao, you … Why are you …" Wang Xuzhi sprinted back like a gust of wind, and scanned her from head to toe.
"Don't ask me, I want some peace and quiet." If you want to ask who peace and quiet are … I will beat you to death.
Wang Xuzhi's eyes were fixed on her chest, and he raised his hand, wanting to press on it.
Zhu Yao slapped away his hand, and then, she raised her hand and gave him a potsticker on the back of his head. "Stinking brat, what are you doing!?"
"No … That's not it. I'm just … Just, big sis Zhu Yao, you … Why did you become … "Probably because the impact of the truth was too great, Wang Xuzhi began to ramble.
Wasn't it just a change of avatar? Was it so hard to accept?
The more Wang Xuzhi spoke, the more confused and anxious she became. "I … I couldn't find you in the mystic realm. After I came out, I couldn't find you. You … you're back … you're finally back … "
"Why are you crying?"
"I didn't!" Wang Xuzhi rubbed her eyes fiercely and said this sentence very smoothly.
"You're still denying it!?" Looking at this young man, whose words were getting more and more chaotic the more he spoke, Zhu Yao's heart ached a little. "I'm fine. I'm the Undying Vajra. I just changed my appearance. " She rubbed the back of her head that she had hit earlier. So little wimp had actually gone in to look for her. At least you have a conscience, you didn't dote on me for so many years in vain.
"Style? Then big sis Zhu Yao is really … "
"Yes, I am a man!"
"…" Wang Xuzhi widened her eyes and pointed at her with a trembling finger.
Zhu Yao patted on his shoulders, and the thought of bullying him once again surfaced in the depths of her heart.
"I'm a man now. Will you despise me? "
"Of course not!" Wang Xuzhi replied loudly.
"You're still the best." Zhu Yao pretended to be moved. Wiping the corner of her eyes, she threw him a coquettish glance. "Little wimp, do you still remember what you said when you were young? You'll definitely marry me. I feel that we've both grown up, and it's time to fulfill your promise. Marry me then. If not, I can marry you too. "
"Ah? Ah? "
Wang Xuzhi suddenly took a step back. He looked at her with a conflicted expression. His expression changed from red to white, and then to green. It was so interesting that people could not shift their eyes away.
"Enough." As though he could not stand their cloying expressions of searching for a relative from a thousand miles away. A certain master expressed his displeasure, as he coldly glared at Wang Xuzhi. "You trespassed into Jade Forest Mountain, so I won't bicker with you about this matter. Go!" Other people's disciples, hurry and scram. Don't lead my own disciple astray.
Wang Xuzhi glanced at Zhu Yao, his expression was conflicted for a moment. As though he had encountered a huge problem, he wanted to leave, yet he was reluctant to do so.
"If there's a chance in the future, I will tell you in detail …" Zhu Yao narrowed her eyes, leaned close to his ears, and enunciated word by word. "Our. Marriage."
"…" With a turn of his feet, he left Jade Forest Mountain as though he was flying.
Zhu Yao laughed to the point her stomach was hurting. He really couldn't take fright. Was it that unacceptable to turn into a man? Look at how calm her master was …
Not only did he not despise her, he even stripped her the moment he arrived.
= =
No, it didn't seem like something worth being happy about.
— — — —
On the second day after her return, a certain master, in order to prevent other people's disciples from suddenly barging in and leading his own disciple astray, secretly activated the formations of Jade Forest Mountain. Wang Xuzhi was completely unable to enter, and Zhu Yao's only source of entertainment was gone as well.
However, the heavens seemed to be purposely not allowing her to stay idle. Early in the morning, she felt a little strange. The skies of the entire Ancient Hill Sect were a little gloomy, as though a storm was about to arrive. Even the celestial cranes on Jade Forest Mountain began to cry out as though they were convulsing.
It was as though something had triggered their uneasiness.
The air was suffocating, and Zhu Yao felt a strange fluster. She kept feeling that something was about to happen. Raising her head to look at the sky, she saw dark clouds rolling, as though something was brewing within the clouds.
Logically speaking, Ancient Hill Sect was a blessed land, and spring had always been bright and beautiful. It was really rare to see such a large area of gloomy weather. The more Zhu Yao stared at the clouds, the more her heart felt stuffy. She kept feeling that there was something there, something that made her feel very close to it.
"Someone is forming his Nascent Soul." Yu Yan frowned as he looked at the rolling lightning clouds in the sky. "Such a powerful heavenly might, it seems like a lightning tribulation will descend soon."
"Lightning tribulation?" Could it be Xiao Yi? However, he had just formed his Azoth Core earlier. Even if he concealed his own cultivation, it was impossible for him to reach the Azoth Paragon level in a month, unless …
Zhu Yao suddenly recalled the rampaging Metal Spirit. Although the Metal Spirit had stopped rampaging, it still absorbed a large amount of metal spiritual energy. If it were to return to Xiao Yi's side just like that, it was not impossible for him to form his Nascent Soul immediately. The one forming his Nascent Soul was really him?
Zhu Yao instantly felt a little sullen. It was as though she had unknowingly helped him.
Raising her head, she looked at the dark clouds. She suddenly recalled the time when Xiao Yi formed his Azoth Core, and jokingly said. "Master, do you think the heavenly lightning tribulation this time, will it strike us again?"
Yu Yan was startled. As though he had thought of something, he suddenly turned his head to look at his own disciple, and his eyes instantly shone.
"Master?" What's going on?
"Follow me." Yu Yan summoned his flying sword with a wave of his hand, and turned to look at his stupid disciple who still did not understand what was going on. As though he despised her slow movements, he grabbed onto his disciple's collar, and flew up. His figure flashed, and he flew towards the east.
"Master, let's talk nicely." Was there a need for him to carry her?
Yu Yan did not speak, instead, he flew straight to the very edge of the tribulation clouds, and stopped on a small island far away from Ancient Hill Sect.
Placing Zhu Yao down, he did not explain, and like a hardworking little bee, he began to set up various formations around the island. Although Zhu Yao was not very familiar with formations, she could still faintly tell that the formations he had set up were all concealment type formations.
"Master?" Give me an explanation first!
Seven minutes later, Yu Yan finally stopped, and threw down a bomb. "You will form your Nascent Soul here."
"Eh?" What was going on? Forget about lightning spiritual energy on this island, even the spiritual energy was very sparse. What kind of joke was this?
Stupid. Yu Yan shook his head, and pointed at the tribulation lightning in the sky. "Are you able to sense the lightning spiritual energy in between the lightning clouds?"
Zhu Yao nodded. Not only could she sense it, she even had a feeling that the thing in the clouds really wanted to come over and take a look at her, yet, it was being restrained by something.
"After the tribulation lightning descends, try your best to guide it to this island."
"Master, you mean …" Zhu Yao finally understood. He meant for her to absorb the lightning spiritual energy in the tribulation lightning to form her Nascent Soul. Was there anything more abundant than the lightning spiritual energy in the tribulation lightning? Master was so smart. She gave her master a thumbs up. "I understand."
"Your master will naturally use the Lightning Guiding Art to help you guide the tribulation lightning over. Focus on forming your Nascent Soul."
"Mn!"
Zhu Yao immediately sat in a lotus position, closed her eyes, and calmed her heart. Using her heart to sense the tribulation clouds, she could faintly see the flashes of light between the rolling clouds.
The sky had already completely darkened. Suddenly, a thunderous rumble resounded, and a white bolt of lightning flashed between the clouds. Zhu Yao silently thought. Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry.
That bolt of lightning, however, struck straight down. Just as it was about to strike the Tribulation Taker of Ancient Hill Sect, it suddenly made a turn, and struck straight towards the small island. Without any deviation, it struck Zhu Yao's body.
A large amount of lightning spiritual energy instantly surged into Zhu Yao's body, and an indescribable pain engulfed her entire body. It was so painful that she could not even straighten her back, especially the position of her Dantian, which felt as though it was being forcefully shattered.
Only now did she truly feel what it meant to shatter a Core. This pain was exactly the same as the pain she felt before her death in Tasyoluk. After her resurrection, she did not have any spiritual energy, so naturally, she could not feel the pain of her Core shattering. However, right now, it was as though the pain of her Core shattering had suddenly reconnected. That pain, which felt as though her heart was being crushed, was almost unbearable.
"Calm your mind, guide spiritual energy into your divine sense."
Yu Yan's words sounded.
Zhu Yao instantly became much more clear-headed. Immediately, using all the energy in her body, she guided the lightning spiritual energy that was rampaging in her body, and into her divine sense. However, what welcomed her was even greater pain. If the shattering of her Core was said to be the pain in her body, then right now, it was the pain in her soul. Yet, she was still unable to stop, and had no choice but to guide the spiritual energy to purify her own divine sense again and again. Zhu Yao even had the heart to curse out.
Right now, it was definitely a miracle that she was still clear-headed. Just when she thought that she would be able to endure it, without her guidance, the second bolt of Heavenly Lightning still struck over, and the spiritual energy in her body skyrocketed.
The hell, did it have to be this fast?
Zhu Yao had no choice but to crazily guide the lightning spiritual energy into her divine sense, allowing the pain to intensify. Immediately after, the third bolt, the fourth bolt, and each bolt was stronger than the last. The Tribulation Lightning seemed to have grown eyes, as each bolt struck more smoothly than the last. In the end, they even skipped the step of making a turn in Ancient Hill Sect, as they struck straight towards her. (To be continued)
