The heavenly tribulation finally stopped, but the flashing lightning had not completely retreated. It turned into a shockwave and dispersed. If not for the Heaven Deceiving Formation laid down by Ye Fan, the mountains and rivers would definitely have been destroyed.
Finally, the last strand of lightning dissipated, and the world returned to its tranquility. There were only ashes on the ground, and a small piece of charred coal lay on the ground.
"Komatsu!"
You Weiyu and the others could not bear to watch. This scene was too cruel. The purple little guy was hacked into the ground and turned into ashes.
They felt that Ye Fan was somewhat heartless. How could he not even care about the life and death of his disciple? Could it be that the purple little guy really died like this?
There was no life force, no flesh, only ashes and a piece of charred coal. Its body was scorched, and it no longer had any vitality. It was too miserable.
When they thought of the cute little guy and saw this scene again, they all felt like crying. Their hearts were stifled. Why did it turn out like this?
"It's fine, it didn't die." Ye Fan spoke. It was not that he was heartless, but if he interfered and protected the little guy, it would be considered a failure in crossing the tribulation. The consequences would be inestimable, and its future cultivation path would be incomparably difficult and bumpy.
So much so that its dao foundation would be destroyed. What supreme dao fruit? What supreme demon emperor? What looking down on the world? They could not even think about it.
The little guy murmured as he struggled within the ashes. Waves of meat fragrance emitted from his body. Finally, there was a bit of vitality, and people could feel that it was still alive.
Yan Xiaoyu and the others quickly ran over and watched nervously. However, they did not dare to touch it for fear of aggravating its injuries. The little guy was almost out of shape. He miserably opened his eyes, and his body was almost charred.
It continuously mumbled and cried out in pain. Ye Fan immediately took action. He sacrificed his own golden blood to help cleanse its internal organs and bones, and heal its body.
Once the human race's divine body was completed, its blood could be regarded as a precious spirit medicine. It naturally had extraordinary effects, and it could strengthen the muscles and bones, cleanse the marrow, and refine the hair. There was a special fragrance overflowing.
"You're already like this during your first tribulation. Back then, I was even more miserable than you. I wasn't recognized by the Great Dao and almost died. I only managed to survive after entering the forbidden land of the Ancient Desolation."
Not long after, Komatsu's unfocused eyes finally focused. He whimpered a few times and looked at Ye Fan pitifully. His whole body was in pain.
"Now is the time to consolidate your Dao Fruit. You need to pull yourself together. After experiencing the baptism of the thunder tribulation, you need to transform into an even stronger body," Ye Fan strictly urged.
Normally, he could spoil it, but when it came to cultivation, he would never spoil it. He strictly ordered it to quickly pull itself together and temper its body.
Although Komatsu was simple-minded, it knew that Ye Fan was doing this for its own good. Hearing this, it forced itself to heal its injured body and began to change its blood. It began to temper its body that was almost destroyed.
"Pitter patter …"
There were still remnants of the essence of the heavenly tribulation in its body. At this moment, it continuously hummed as its blood flowed. It hammered its broken bones, refined its internal organs, and purified its flesh and blood.
After several hours, Komatsu was reborn. A small pile of charred skin and bones fell off the ground. Its body had undergone a great change. Its fur was even smoother and flickered with purple light.
At this moment, its body became the size of a palm. Including its tail, it was only a foot long. Its large eyes were like two black gems embedded in a purple crystal.
The other disciples sighed. In this era, it was difficult to have a true heavenly tribulation. Only a few ancient sects had secret methods to draw in a small amount of lightning from a thunderstorm to temper its body. Something like this was absolutely unique.
"Komatsu, how many years have you been cultivating?" Zhan Yifan asked.
The others were also curious. They giggled and teased it, asking how old it was to already have such a cultivation.
It began to carefully count with its fingers. It looked a little muddle-headed and even used its toes. Its silly appearance immediately made the others laugh.
Ye Fan also laughed and said, "It's an anomaly. In fact, it hasn't been cultivating for many years. Otherwise, how could it have such a temperament?"
Komatsu had just counted to five with its toes. After hearing this, it was immediately embarrassed. But soon, it began to laugh foolishly again, looking charmingly naive.
Kunlun, from the Pamir Plateau in the west, traversed between Xinjiang and Tibet, and extended into the territory of Qinghai. It was the most important ancestral mountain in China's ancient myths and legends.
According to some ancient records, the ancient ancestors of the Central Plains might have originated from Kunlun as a result of their eastward migration. And this theory was supported by linguistics, mythology, and modern genetic analysis. It was also agreed by some scholars.
People believed that it was precisely because of this that the ancient ancestors left behind so many legends. That was why Kunlun played such an important role in China's myths and legends.
Looking at Kunlun from afar, it was majestic and majestic. It was like a thick history, but also like a source of life. It carried too much.
After that, they entered the mountains of Kunlun and paid a visit to the headmaster Xue Chen. They were welcomed with great ceremony. The things that Ye Fan had done recently were too shocking.
Kunlun had countless beautiful sceneries. Since ancient times, it had been called the Celestial Mountain. It was a place to ascend to immortality. Unfortunately, the main part of it was inside the ancient formation, and ordinary people couldn't see it.
"There is hope of becoming immortal in the mountains, and there are also immortal divine medicines. The elder brother of the ruthless man might have fallen here," Ye Fan whispered to himself.
If they were to travel west, they would soon be out of the country and officially begin the western expedition. Ye Fan didn't leave immediately. Instead, he brought a few disciples to search Kunlun.
There were too many legends here. They also wanted to try their luck, but unfortunately, they didn't find anything after wandering around for several days. Ye Fan estimated the location of the Hidden Immortal Land, which contained the opportunity to become immortal. However, he didn't have a perfect map, so he didn't dare to set foot there.
At night, a bonfire danced in the depths of the mountains of Kunlun. Zhang Qingyang had hunted a unicorn. The few of them skinned it, washed it, and roasted it on the bonfire.
"You are demons, boohoo …"
In the distance, a golden-haired girl cried angrily. She had entered the Central Plains to eliminate demons, but when she found traces of them, she lost her beloved mount.
The few people in front of her skinned the unicorn in front of her. The roasted meat was fragrant and golden. The fragrance lingered in the night, stimulating one's appetite.
"Boohoo, my sister won't let you go. You bunch of demons, you ate my unicorn …" She cried, but she couldn't change anything.
"Little girl, did you read a lot of stories about brave warriors slaying dragons? You are so naive, yet you still dare to come to the Central Plains to eliminate demons. Ignorant child." Zhan Yifan shook his head and laughed.
"Hey, you don't say, this unicorn's meat is really delicious. It's a pity it's not a purebred, otherwise it would definitely be a great tonic." Zhang Qingyang said.
In the mountains of Kunlun, the fog was very thick at night. The few of them sat in front of the bonfire and roasted unicorn meat. It was a special taste. And You Weiyu was ingenious. He specially went to the Xinjiang people to get some seasoning and roasted the meat. The few of them ate to their heart's content.
"Wah … I'll fight it out with you!" A fourteen or fifteen year old golden-haired girl pounced over, baring her fangs and brandishing her claws. In the end, Zhan Yifan picked up a piece of fragrant meat and stuffed it into his mouth. He said: "Little girl, don't be so fierce. You should try it yourself. That unicorn was raised very well. The meat is quite good."
Ye Fan didn't need to think to know that the Western Vatican was definitely mobilizing all of their forces. Otherwise, why would this little girl come to the East?
Obviously, some of the descendants of the ancient families were bewitched. They all wanted to become epic heroes who slayed demons. It was estimated that many of them ran to the East without telling their families.
Sure enough, in the next few days, more than a dozen similar incidents happened. Some of them were still children who wanted to become heroes who slayed dragons and demons.
As long as Zhan Yifan, Zhang Qingyang and the others caught such pure "heroes" and "beauties", they would rob them clean and give them a good spanking before chasing them away.
"Go back and tell your family elders that I will stay in Kunlun for three more days. If you want to come, then hurry. If you don't come, I will go to the West to visit the Pope and have afternoon tea with him."
When a group of young people who came with great dreams but suffered a serious setback returned, they told their experiences. It caused a huge uproar in the Western world of cultivation.
"This is too much. The Mohan family's unicorn was eaten, the Hygu family's dragon was roasted, and the Qiuen family's fire phoenix … These people are really demons. They are evil to the extreme. They must be burned at the stake!"
Ye Fan's group had not yet entered the West, but they were already notorious. Even his six disciples had become demons with horns, let alone him.
The peace of Kunlun was broken. After the news spread, countless people from the Western orthodoxy arrived in these three days. They were all wandering cultivators who heard the news and came to vent their anger.
However, the result was cruel. Once Ye Fan's sword was drawn, he swept away thousands of enemies. Blood flowed like a river. No one was a match for him.
Not a single person could escape. Blood dyed the rocks of Kunlun red. In the end, it was Ye Fan who told the Taoists. They told the Pope, and only then did the West learn that a group of wandering cultivators who went east to slay demons had fallen.
The bigwigs of the Vatican smashed the goblets filled with red wine. Their anger surged, and holy light shot into the sky from their bodies.
"Charland, you are one of the strongest Holy Knights who survived the Dark Age. The merciful Lord has shrouded you in divine light and bestowed you with incomparable glory. Can you still find others from the ancient era? "
"Can't I kill him alone?"
"Your divine bravery is known to the world. Holy Knights who have lived since the Dark Age are all favored by God. I am worried that you are injured. Find some companions, and you can go east to kill that demon together."
"Alright, maybe I can find a few Holy Knights from the ancient era to kill him."
After the great shock, the Western orthodoxy naturally began to prepare for a countermeasure. The complete destruction of the Crusades in the Middle Earth was a rather negative event. Moreover, many people had died later on, so they had to resolve the matter as soon as possible.
In these few days, even mortals could hear the praises of the angels and occasionally see strange scenes. One could imagine the extent of their activities.
Many ancient families were found. They were protected by ancient formations and isolated from the world. They lived in ancient castles in the Middle Ages, but now they were invited to come out of their seclusion.
Demons from the Middle Earth!
These four words had become a hot topic in the past few days, spreading throughout the Western world of cultivation. Some people felt pressured, while others thought that the Daoist sects of the Middle Earth were going to war.
"The will of our Lord has descended to the world, and will use holy fire to wash away the filth of the mortal world …"
On this day, a holy angel descended and appeared in a magnificent cathedral. She had the face of a woman, and her beauty was peerless. Her golden hair flowed like the sun, and her figure was slender. She was dressed in light muslin and exuded a holy radiance.
On this same day, the Pope of the Vatican also issued a summons, summoning the lineages in the distant lands to form a true Crusade Army for an expedition to the East.
The influence of the Pope was enormous. In the past, the true Crusades had always been initiated by the Pope. Thus, when this summons was issued, the Western world of cultivation was in an uproar.
In the various castles that were isolated from the mortal world, some extremely outstanding and powerful youths, as well as some old men whose bodies were about to be buried in the yellow earth, moved upon hearing the summons.
"Let's go. Three days have passed. It's time to hit the road again …" Ye Fan and the others were far away from the Kunlun Mountain Range. They had already officially stepped out of the national boundary and began to head west.
