Chapter 73 Chaos
Chapter 73 Chaos
A large number of people watched as the red-robed female cultivator used her sword to strike the exploding lightning.
Mu Yuansheng was naturally not concerned about anything else; what mattered was that the red-robed female cultivator had injured two of his men.
Looking back now, he was just a sword fanatic who went mad from practicing swordsmanship.
Fortunately, since its founding, the Silverfrost Empire has secretly suppressed various sword cultivators, and they have very few positions in the imperial court.
Mu Yuansheng secretly admired the wisdom of the empire's sages.
Niannu watched silently from the side, her eyes gleaming, secretly impressed by the actions of the red-robed female cultivator.
When lightning and sword energy collided, they shone brightly, and a series of muffled sounds filled the air as several waves of energy rolled in.
A red cloud seemed to be struck by lightning, then fell down and drifted towards the mountains.
Mu Yuansheng sneered and turned his head away, too lazy to look anymore.
"Lord Mu! This servant wishes to go into the mountains to find the Marquis!"
Niannu suddenly said at this moment.
Mu Yuansheng was captivated by the strange phenomena within the thunder waterfall and casually tossed something to Niannu:
"This is the swim bladder bone of the Mingjiao. Take it. It can transmit your voice to me within a hundred miles."
Within the lightning waterfall, something seemed to have appeared, slowly rising. All the thousands of lightning threads and ninety percent of the lightning's power within the waterfall turned towards this object, unleashing their full force.
Niannu was delighted. He put away the swim bladder bone, leaped down the mountain, circled the forest a few times, and then ran towards the place where the red-robed female cultivator had fallen.
The power of lightning, flowing in but not out, poured directly into the foreign object within the lightning waterfall.
Once the object was stabilized in the middle of the lightning waterfall, it calmly accepted the immense power of the lightning.
Mu Yuansheng was surprised to notice that the lightning waterfall was actually slowly shrinking and becoming thinner as a result.
"What is this? What is this?"
Frowning in deep thought, Mu Yuansheng was secretly alarmed. Clearly, this was a potential threat to the social stability and harmony of Luzhou!
Defending against the vagrants was already a major headache for him. Now, with a mysterious monster that devours lightning tribulations appearing so close at hand, Mu Yuansheng's sense of crisis has surpassed his concern about Lin Qianxiu's whereabouts.
"Valiant Cavalry, listen to my command! Advance to within five miles of the core of the lightning tribulation and set up a perimeter to intercept any suspicious persons and report any abnormal situations immediately!"
Mu Yuansheng took out a golden shark maw and coldly gave the order.
He then leaped down, and together with his two bodyguards, they undulated through the mountains and forests, approaching the core of the Heavenly Tribulation, whose lightning power was gradually weakening.
Under the lightning waterfall, Luo Sifan was focused entirely on controlling the divine lightning to invade Qingyao, his little brother, to prevent either of them from being harmed. He had almost no energy left to pay attention to what was happening outside.
After being tempered by heavenly lightning, the human and the beast's physiques became highly refined and gradually aligned with the Dao of Heaven. As excess was depleted, the power of divine lightning replenished them, causing their auras to rise steadily...
From Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, from Golden Core to Nascent Soul, he skipped two Nascent Soul stages and kept charging forward at the critical juncture of the Divine Transformation Realm.
A series of spiritual transformations erupted from the core of a long, serpentine waterfall, sweeping across the Zhuolu Mountain Range for dozens of miles.
The people from all directions who had gathered here were all moved, some with envy, some with shock, and their greedy expressions lured them to linger and move forward.
Ji Yuan carried the unconscious Mu Ziyun, and followed a cultivator in a dark yellow robe, making their way discreetly through the ravine.
The red-robed female cultivator's longsword was held in the yellow-robed cultivator's hand as he cut away the miscellaneous branches and vines in the mountain.
"Immortal Jin, why not just kill this girl? You can keep her soul."
Ji Yuan's hands were tired from carrying the load, and he complained in a low voice.
The yellow-robed cultivator snorted and continued forward without turning his head.
"I still have a use for this woman. Just keep an eye on her! Don't hurt her!"
Ji Yuan reluctantly agreed, carefully protecting Mu Ziyun's head and feet, and followed closely behind.
Wu Lingsu searched everywhere for Mu Ziyun but could not find her. She was getting anxious. This was a rare opportunity to curry favor with Luo Sifan, and she didn't want to mess it up.
With her spiritual energy circulating within her body, Wu Lingsu slammed her palm hard against the mountain rock, causing the spiritual energy to surge subtly and spread along the mountainside.
The nomadic tribes have lived in the mountains for tens of thousands of years. Their cultivation methods are mostly in harmony with the spirits of heaven and earth. The shamans and spirits they practice are using the "earth listening" technique that has been passed down in their tribe for a long time.
Used for hunting and scouting enemies, it is often difficult for the enemy to detect.
Upon receiving the spiritual energy feedback, Wu Lingsu's face lit up with joy, and she leaped closer to where Ji Yuan and the others were.
In the mountains and forests, the sounds of Wu Lingsu's movements were almost like the movements of beasts and the flight of birds, making them difficult to detect.
A middle-aged man in brown robes, with a simple appearance, was also trailing far behind Ji Yuan and the others. Every now and then, he would pick up the Mingjiao Treasure Blade from his bosom to check for any news.
His expression showed slight irritation.
The appearance of the yellow-robed cultivator made him somewhat wary, but despite repeatedly sending messages to Lin Qianxiu, there was no response from the other side. He was caught in a dilemma and also had to worry about what might have happened to the Marquis.
Lin Qianxiu was trapped in the center of the lightning tribulation and was naturally unable to receive messages from the Mingjiao Treasure Blade. Luo Sifan's lightning net was completely sealed off, and she was gritting her teeth and cursing in frustration.
The mysterious figures outside the cave breaking through the steps one after another made her worry about the safety of Luo Sifan and the others, making it even harder for her to calm down.
At this moment, the lightning circle surrounding Lin Qianxiu began to move as if it were alive. Helpless, Lin Qianxiu was carried away by the rolling lightning circle, her feet moving faster and faster, until she was dragged out of the cave in a sorry state.
"Lin Xiaozhi!"
Lin Qianxiu tumbled out of the cave and immediately saw Luo Sifan, spitting angrily. Luo Sifan stood leisurely with his hands in his sleeves, glancing back at Lin Qianxiu with her long hair flowing freely in the lightning circle, and actually smiled in a half-smile, looking quite happy!
Where is Qingyao?
Lin Qianxiu, with her messy hair tied up, asked coldly. At this moment, she no longer cared about Luo Sifan; instead, she was worried that Luo Sifan had done something bad to Qingyao.
Luo Sifan pointed to the sky, his expression calm:
"They're right there. Would I, their father, possibly harm them?"
To be honest, he also wanted to settle scores with Lin Qianxiu, so he naturally didn't want to give her a friendly look.
Lin Qianxiu looked up, her pretty face gradually showing shock.
The sight of a human and a beast simultaneously unleashing spiritual energy fluctuations at the Nascent Soul stage was truly frightening.
With her lips slightly parted, Lin Qianxiu was so lost in thought that she forgot to speak.
Luo Sifan took the opportunity to retract Lin Qianxiu's lightning circle and threw it into the slender white lightning waterfall, which was as thin as an arm.
"Add more ingredients!"
Luo Sifan muttered to himself, his hands moving incessantly. For dozens of miles, thunderclouds surged and billowed, all rushing toward the center of the thunder waterfall.
The diameter of the lightning waterfall doubled, transforming into a doubled wave of spiritual energy that slammed into Qingyao and her younger brother's body.
Lin Qianxiu stared wide-eyed at Luo Sifan, who was focused on controlling the lightning, her feelings a mix of emotions.
The golden shark bladder in her arms vibrated incessantly. With a thought, Lin Qianxiu picked it up to receive the message.
The message contained a lot of information, and the news about Jiyuan moved her deeply.
"Lin Xiaozhi!"
Suppressing her anger, Lin Qianxiu called out to Luo Sifan.
Instead, they were met with a torrent of spiritual energy crashing down from above, forcing them to reach out and pull each other to steady themselves.
The Zhuolu Mountain Range, stretching for dozens of miles, trembled instantly, and the lurking crowd revealed themselves, each appearing in the other's spiritual consciousness like a reef in a wave.
"Stop right there!"
"Who are you? How dare you follow me!"
"The Western Expeditionary Army is on business here; surrender without resistance!"
Angry shouts and fierce rebukes echoed through the valley; more often than not, a fight broke out without a word.
Within a five-mile radius of Luo Sifan and Lin Qianxiu, hundreds of people emerged, engaging in fierce battles and shouting, creating a lively and chaotic scene.
