C143 Lightning Tribulation
C143 Lightning Tribulation
"Soong Tianxuan, are you alright?" Zi Yan watched as all the lightning bolts were sucked into Soong Tianxuan's body. Soong Tianxuan's body suddenly slanted and he rushed to the front of the mountain to support Soong Tianxuan.
The moment her hands made contact with his body, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky. Zi Yan felt her whole body go numb, and she almost lost her grip on him.
In a short moment, the lightning completely drilled into the immortal foundation. However, the immortal foundation did not shatter. Instead, there was a flash of lightning in the spiritual energy it emitted.
As for the remaining ball of light, it was still stuck on the Profound Yellow Pearl.
The celestial altar was intact, just like before, but Soong Tianxuan still spat out a mouthful of blood.
"What a tyrannical lightning tribulation." Soong Tianxuan said.
Zi Yan could only bitterly smile. Other people might not even be able to encounter such a powerful lightning tribulation when they advance to the Spirit Dan Stage. Soong Tianxuan only advanced to the Immortal Stage, yet he had already reached such power.
He looked at Zi Yan's tattered clothes and felt a little embarrassed. When he said that she would protect him, Zi Yan did not hesitate at all, the lightning tribulation was small, but it was not without its effects. If it were not for Zi Yan, he was confident that he would be able to withstand the second strike.
This friendship had completely surpassed friendship and was a form of protection based on instinct.
"Thank you, I will remember this favor." Although he had touched her Paraphrase, everything was still unclear. There were some things that should not be revealed.
Zi Yan smiled slightly: "The senior of your Pill-cloud God Pellet, when will you introduce him to me?"
Soong Tianxuan was startled, then laughed: "You are looking for this senior in such a hurry, not just for the Pill Dao right? I am also a pill refiner, the higher my cultivation level, the more insights I will get. You are only a sixth stage Elixir Master, why are you so anxious to meet him?"
"Why do you have to care so much? You promised me that you would go back on your words now? " Zi Yan tilted her body and turned her face to the side, looking a little angry.
So that's how it is, saving him wasn't because of the Paraphrase, but because of this senior.
Soong Tianxuan suddenly realized something. He smiled bitterly and felt a bit sad. He understood that he had started to like Zi Yan.
Seeing that Soong Tianxuan did not respond, Zi Yan felt a little awkward and said awkwardly, "Mhm, I'm not choking on you, I'm just a little anxious."
"What's the rush?" Soong Tianxuan asked as he cleaned up the surrounding grass.
"There are some things that are not as simple as you think. It's best that you don't know about them." Zi Yan's right hand unnaturally twirled the corner of her skirt as she bit her lips.
Soong Tianxuan turned around and stood in front of Zi Yan. He raised his hands and held Zi Yan's shoulders.
Even Faang Yun didn't dare to touch her. She was afraid that she would get angry, but this time, she wouldn't. There were only the two of them here, as if they were close friends who had experienced life and death situations.
"I say, what do you have to brag about? What kind of blind teacher is a girl's master that requires you to carry so much? It's not as simple as I thought? Even if it's even more complicated, do you still have me? " As Soong Tianxuan said that, his voice changed and he became agitated.
Why was Soong Tianxuan suddenly like this, but he held it back and continued: "I was chased by a group of people for no reason, I was just almost beaten to death by Song Cheng's son when I woke up, my newly married wife was a swindler, in the end, I was just a chess piece, I sold my Pill, I offended everything I could offend, and now I'm still trapped in the forbidden area, my parents are still unknown, when I left my master was heavily injured, even she, almost …"
With that, Soong Tianxuan became silent. He put his hands down from Zi Yan's shoulders. It was the first time he said these words to a girl he liked a little but had only known for less than half a month.
Zi Yan was also silent, as if in exchange, with her back to Soong Tianxuan, she said, "I don't know who my parents are, I followed Master since I was young. He told me that I'm an unusual woman, I can't choose my own life, I was born with a big responsibility, although I don't know what this big road is."
Master taught me alchemy and cultivation, but objected to my close relationship with any youngsters. He said that they were not worthy of me, so I had no friends, and others saw me as a high and mighty figure. But who would have thought that after all these sixteen years of loneliness, I would tell everything to myself, and you would be my first friend. Zi Yan was silent for a moment before she let out a long breath. "Is she well?"
Soong Tianxuan was stunned. He actually told her …
"I know about your trust towards me, but our paths are different. Master said that sooner or later, I will take a different path, and this world is not my world, so I can't leave anything behind. "Then what's left is only damage." Zi Yan turned around and looked at Soong Tianxuan.
Soong Tianxuan looked at the silent Zi Yan and shook his head: "I know how she is. She's the same as you, too similar, too high up …"
That's also because I was injured, so I don't want anyone to stand in front of me and help me take on some responsibility. That's why when you stood in front of me that day, I was very grateful and reminded me of her.
"The reason why I'm looking for the Pill-cloud's divine pellet is to save my master, I know that he had once appeared in Violet Cloud City, so I came to Violet Cloud City. I found that senior and let him help me find my master, but master was unable to refine the Pill-cloud's divine pellet either, maybe only the Pill-cloud's divine pellet can save him."
Soong Tianxuan nodded, and after a long silence, he said, "Let's go out. After that, I'll take you to find him."
"Really?"
"It's true," Soong Tianxuan said. By that time, Spirit of Profound Yellow should be awake and be able to help her.
"Mm. Alright, it's a deal." Zi Yan nodded.
"It's a deal!" Soong Tianxuan nodded.
He understood that Zi Yan was not a person from this world. Perhaps she was stronger than his world, and perhaps one day, she would leave and head to that kingdom filled with talents. There, she would have a better fortuitous encounter, and a better man.
"However, we still have to leave this place first. I wonder what we will encounter along the way." Soong Tianxuan said.
Zi Yan looked at Soong Tianxuan and suddenly smiled sweetly. "No matter what we encounter, we must survive."
… ….
And within the Medicine Sect, when they found out that Zi Yan had been kidnapped by the Demonic Beast, the Sect Master made a rare marriage to her, and then, the two old men entered the Posterior Mountain s of the imperial palace.
When the two came out, it was already the second day. The imperial city's Cabinet had issued a bounty, and all of the young disciples under the Profound Baby were given an uncountable amount of spirit stones. They were all rewarded with one Heavenly Cherry Grass, ten liters of Jade Springs, five Snow Lotuses, and an uncountable number of Spirit Stones.
