The villain killed the master. What? I am the master!

"Boom——"

The moment the thunder exploded, the clear blue sky of Mengding County suddenly changed color.

The inky black sea of ​​clouds rolled and piled up, swallowing up all the light in the sky in an instant.

The lightning that danced wildly like golden snakes between the clouds twisted and split the void, trying to suppress it. However, the moment it touched the mortal world, the tangled lightning suddenly collapsed into thin silver lines, and finally dissipated into light fragments all over the sky.

Dark purple lightning marks remained in the folds of the clouds, causing the city below to flicker. A damp and cold wind blew in the face, carrying the fishy smell of earth.

"Wow--"

Before the thunderbolt fell, heavy rain poured down.

Countless monks in Mengding County were all extremely surprised and didn't know what was going on.

"Could it be that there was a real person fighting nearby just now?"

Some people silently speculated, otherwise it would be difficult to explain this sudden change.

But even the Jindan Zhenren seemed unable to create such power.

As for Yuanying Zhenjun, they are rare in the world. All of them are in seclusion in major sects. How could they fight in the small territory of Yan State?
And in Shuyuxuan.

The expressions of the two sisters changed at the same time.

"Minxin, I sensed a horrible smell."

The silver-haired girl's face turned pale, and a trace of fear spread from the depths of her soul. This smell seemed strangely familiar to her.

Jiang Yuanxia closed his eyes, feeling the lingering lightning marks between heaven and earth, and said in doubt:
"It seems to be the breath of heaven's punishment."

It is said that in the Age of Immortals, cultivators would face thunder disasters whenever they crossed borders.

The higher the talent, the more terrifying the thunder tribulation one faces.

However, in today's age, the great way is not obvious and the thunder tribulation has long disappeared.

This does not mean it is a good thing. Thunder tribulation is not only a test for cultivators, but also a vital gift from heaven to all living beings.

Perhaps, the reason why many cultivators who have reached perfection in their current realm find it difficult to break through is because they lack thunder tribulation.

But the question is, how can there be divine punishment in this day and age?

Even she and Min Xin had never experienced heavenly punishment when they were condensing their pills.

In the vast world of cultivation, only Xiao An seemed to have encountered heavenly punishment when he broke through the Yuandan realm in the Xuanying Immortal Sect.

But most practitioners believe that this is just the propaganda of the Xuanying Immortal Sect.

"Could it be, Master..."

A hint of disbelief flashed across the black-haired girl's bright eyes. She had just personally given the spiritual object for forming the elixir to her master, and she knew that her master was in seclusion forming the elixir.

If it was a thunder tribulation, it might very well be a divine punishment that Master encountered.

"That big pervert?"

The silver-haired girl was stunned for a moment, more surprised than Jiang Yuanxia. She pouted her lips.

"Him? How could this terrifying pressure be caused by him..."

The seemingly disdainful words concealed concerns.

Jiang Yuanxia was uneasy. Although the thunder tribulation had not yet struck, it did not mean that his master had survived it safely.

After thinking for a while, she touched the silver-haired girl's head and said, "Minxin, wait for Senior Sister here. I'll go see Master."

Well, this way, after Master has gone through so much hardship and difficulty to overcome the tribulation, the first person he sees is me.

In this way, Master will think that Yuan Xia is more filial than other disciples, right?

Unexpectedly, the silver-haired girl followed closely behind him: "I...I want to go too!"

The two of them were full of worries and soon arrived outside Jiang He's house.

There is already a little brown-haired girl peeking here furtively.

Jiang Yuanxia frowned: "Why are you here?"

She remembered that this was one of the children brought back by the master, and seemed to be quite familiar with the master. The other children were sent out of Shuyuxuan by the master.

Only she and the girl named Li Zhizhi were placed in Shuyuxuan, and the two girls lived together.

This is also the reason why Xiao Minxin is unhappy today.

The little girl was startled. She put her hands behind her back, lowered her head and looked at her toes, and said softly:

"Xiaoxiao, I heard a strange sound here just now...so, I came here to take a look out of curiosity. Xiaoxiao, I'm leaving now."

Jiang Yuanxia glanced at Qin Xiaoxiao vaguely. With her powerful spirit, she vaguely sensed something strange about this little girl.

But I couldn't tell what was wrong.

But since she has this feeling, it means there is something wrong with this girl.

It is better not to alert the enemy for the time being, let's see how Master is doing first...

She nodded calmly: "Remember, don't run around in Shuyuxuan anymore. For Master's sake, I'll let you go this time."

"it is good……"

The girl looked even more timid. She first moved away slowly, then after putting some distance between them, she ran away as if escaping.

Judging from the appearance alone, it is really difficult for Jiang Yuanxia to find anything unusual.

Either this girl is a good actress, or she is truly innocent and even she herself has not noticed anything unusual about her.

But, it is better to kill someone by mistake than to let him go.

"Ayawn——"

Xiao Minxin rubbed her nose.

Strange, it was so cold just now...

She had already pushed the door, but the seemingly light door was as heavy as a thousand pounds. She pushed it again in disbelief, with golden light gathering in her hand.

"Minxin, Master has set up restrictions outside. Let me do it."

Jiang Yuanxia held down Xiao Minxin's restless hand and sent a message into the room.

"Did Master successfully form the elixir? Yuan Xia... and Min Xin are both very worried about Master..."

……

Dan Cheng!

Inside the Dantian, the Xuanhuang Pearl faintly revealed a hint of displeasure.

Because next to it, there is another golden elixir competing with it for the center of its dantian, and it cannot compete with this golden elixir.

No matter how magical the Xuanhuang Pearl is, it is ultimately a treasure that Jiang He has refined, and the golden elixir is the origin of Jiang He.

"Strange... the color of this golden elixir is wrong."

Jiang He looked inward at his Dantian. Ordinary golden elixirs were all of red gold in color.

And his golden elixir, as if it had been integrated with a lot of divine power, appeared in nine colors.

But fortunately, this seems to be a good sign.

After forming the golden elixir, Jiang He's most vivid feeling was that the spiritual power in his body was inexhaustible. He was able to cast spells with powerful destructive power and support long-term sword flying.

For example, in the past Jiang He had to sail the spirit boat for several days and nights, but now he can fly directly to the destination in one go.

Secondly, the physical vitality is increased and the spirit is refreshed.

His current life span is about four to five hundred years. His age is considered middle-aged among mortals, but compared with today's life span, he is as young as can be.

“Well, the power of my divine strength has also increased a lot. If I meet the ancestor of the Ye family again, even if he has already taken root in the Yuandan realm and learned magic, I can easily kill him.”

Jiang He was genuinely delighted.

In the past, he had to treat his junior uncle Chu Zhaoming of Yunxi Sect and elder Ye Ge of Xuanying Immortal Sect with respect, but now they are just cultivators of the same realm.

As for the famous Yuandan masters such as Snake Venerable, Tianji, Xi Rujian, etc., he was also confident of winning the battle. If he had the current level of cultivation when he was in Qingmu City, why would he be beaten and separated as a master and disciple and went into exile?

"Om-"

Suddenly, the long-dusty sword hummed and spontaneously rose from the table.

On the dim sword surface, twelve vertical pupils emitted a faint light, as if longing for something.

It wanted to fly into the sky, but the numerous restrictions placed around it restrained its movements.

This was the first time it had shown an unusual reaction since it had seized the divine sword.

"This is……"

Jiang He seemed to be lost in thought, his gaze passing through the window and falling on the gloomy sky.

He naturally knew about the heavenly calamity that had just occurred.

The moment the pill was condensed, he couldn't stop his heart palpitations and knew that he was about to face a thunder tribulation.

However, the great Dao of this world had long since disappeared, and the thunder calamity had disappeared into the void before it even came, leaving only traces of lightning.

However, the divine sword has an extremely strong desire for these remaining lightning marks.

This is because these are the remnants of the heavenly calamity thunder, flowing with the essence of the Tao, and have not appeared in the eyes of the world for tens of thousands of years.

Especially for the divine sword that had been severely damaged, it made it desire it spontaneously.

Jiang He was equally envious, but that place was the place where the thunder calamity annihilated everything, cracks appeared in the void, and there was a lot of murderous intent.

Even Teng Zhenyi, who possessed the power of transformation, did not dare to get involved.

"Can you absorb those thunderbolts?"

Jiang He asked the magic sword tentatively. He had been with the Xuanhuang Pearl for a long time and had long understood that although these treasures had no intelligence, they were ultimately unique treasures in the world. They possessed spirituality and could barely express some information.

The magic sword hummed softly, becoming more and more excited, and faintly revealed its closeness to Jiang He.

This was the first time it showed affection towards Jiang He, but Jiang He was not sure whether it was deliberately confusing him so that he could free himself from the restraints on the magic sword.

"Boom-"

Just at this moment, Jiang Yuanxia knocked on the door.

Jiang He's ears moved and he received her message.

He let out a long breath and unlocked the restrictions and formations outside the room: "Yuan Xia, come in."

"Congratulations, Master, you have successfully condensed the pill!"

The black-haired girl took the pouting silver-haired girl's hand and congratulated Jiang He.

"Why is this girl unhappy again?"

Seeing his two disciples, Jiang He couldn't help but feel a little happier and asked with a smile.

The black-haired girl wanted to say something but stopped herself. Wasn't it because Min Xin saw Qin Xiaoxiao outside the room?

"It's because Minxin is worried about Master, so he looks a little unhappy." The black-haired girl smiled lightly, generously.

"So that's how it is. This little girl actually still worries about me?"

Jiang He smiled and wanted to touch Xiao Minxin's head, but the silver-haired girl turned her head away, crossed her arms and snorted coldly.

Jiang Yuanxia pretended not to notice the puzzled look in his master's eyes and looked away. Suddenly, he saw the divine sword still trembling unwillingly, and his eyes lit up with a strange look:

"Master, why is the sword trembling?"

Seeing this, Jiang He told his eldest disciple the whole story and sighed:
“Alas, the Dao Essence of Thunder Tribulation is extremely important to both the Divine Sword and my master. But if I let the Divine Sword fly away, I’m worried that it will never come back.”

"Master, didn't you offer sacrifices to the divine sword?"

The black-haired girl was a little puzzled. It had been some time since she obtained the divine sword, but her master had not yet been able to refine it?

"Well, this sword is very arrogant, and it has been severely damaged, and the sword body is dormant, so it is really hard to start. But after the master condensed the pill, I was able to get feedback from the sword."

Jiang He thought, maybe after the pill was condensed, the magic sword thought he was qualified to control it?
After saying this, he looked at his eldest disciple expectantly.

The girl did not disappoint him. She tapped her fair chin and thought:

"In that case, Yuan Xia has a method. I can place my soul on the magic sword and go with it. Then I don't have to worry about the magic sword not returning."

It is impossible for the soul of an ordinary cultivator to reside in a magic sword.

But Yuan Xia is an exception. She is a congenital soul fetus, and her spirit and soul are different from those of ordinary people. In a sense, Yuan Xia's spirit and soul are Yuan Xia's true body rather than her physical body.

In the past, Xiao An wanted to use Yuan Xia to sacrifice the sword and refine it into a sword spirit.

"But if the magic sword goes to that place of thunder and lightning, will it hurt your soul?" Jiang He was a little worried.

Although he knew that the innate soul fetus was born between heaven and earth, and had existed since the beginning of heaven and earth, he was afraid that it had even experienced real thunder tribulations.

But the Yuan Xia of today is a human being reincarnated from a soul, which is different from before.

Jiang Yuanxia gently stroked the sword's spine with her bare hands, a faint blue soul light rippled from her fingertips, and the breath of the innate soul flowed like moonlight. The vibration of the sword gradually slowed down, and it seemed to be spiritual and restrained its edge, allowing her soul to entangle.

"Master, please take a look."

The black-haired girl looked back and smiled, full of confidence.

"The soul and the fetus actually share the same origin as the heavenly way. This annihilation lightning mark cannot hurt me. Yuan Xia can also benefit greatly."

Jiang He looked at the confidence in his disciple's eyes and suddenly recalled how she curled up and shivered outside Qingmu City five years ago. Now the girl is able to stand on her own, which makes him, the master, look a little indecisive.

"If you see that the situation is not good, withdraw immediately."

He ran his finger across the sword to remove the restriction on it. At the same time, he was ready to fly the sword closer in case of any accidents.

The black-haired girl closed her eyes and concentrated. A ray of soul as clear as glass flowed out from between her eyebrows and sank into the twelve pupils of the sword.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration appeared, and the magic sword, wrapped in a rain curtain, broke through the window and pierced through the sky!
Deep in the lightning mark, the void was like broken glass.

Jiang Yuanxia's soul was housed in the magic sword. The Dao patterns inside the sword were interwoven into chains, which looked like the same Dao essence as the thunder in the sky, except that it was now incomplete.

"I see."

Her soul light trembled slightly, and she suddenly realized that the rumors about Xiao An's tribulation in the past were true.

The inner essence of the sword body was probably what Xiao An gained when he overcame the tribulation in the past.

The magic sword greedily pierced into the lightning net, and its twelve pupils lit up one after another, grabbing the remaining lightning like a glutton.

At the same time, Jiang Yuanxia's soul was meditating on the sword body, closing his eyes and feeling.

These Taoist essences also benefited her a lot and were helpful in breaking through the Taidan realm!

Suddenly, the chains vibrated and hummed!
A blurry shadow emerged from the Dao pattern chains; his face was unclear and his black robe fluttered.

The phantom flicked his finger and attracted the remaining thunder, which turned into a sharp sword and stabbed Jiang Yuanxia.

"Xiao An??!"

Jiang Yuanxia's soul was agitated and he was extremely shocked.

But soon, she discovered that this was just a wisp of divine consciousness left by Xiao An. If her soul had not entered the sword, it would have been difficult to detect the existence of this wisp of divine consciousness.

This method is extremely vicious and will deliver a fatal blow at the critical moment when the Master is refining the divine sword.

I didn't expect Xiao An to have this kind of backup plan...

The black-haired girl's face turned cold, and she wished she could find Xiao An's body and whip it.

She concentrated her mind, and her soul power as deep as the ocean rolled out, instantly strangling the vague shadow. In just a moment, Xiao An's mind disappeared like a bubble.

After a long time, the rainstorm gradually stopped.

Although Jiang He couldn't see the soul of his eldest disciple, he felt relieved when he saw the magic sword steadily devouring the thunder mark.

"Master, I have accomplished my mission... In order to avoid being noticed by other cultivators, Yuan Xia and the magic sword will temporarily go into hiding. I hope Master can rest assured."

The message he received not long after made Jiang He put aside all his worries. (End of this chapter)
