Chapter 875

The current Shangyou Ruined City has long since lost its glorious scene as a gateway to the sacred land.

That huge palm print that fell from the sky forcibly divided the huge immortal city into seven areas.

The huge concave pit in the middle, with magma rolling all day long, is called the "Heavenly Fire Basin".

The other six relatively complete places accommodate a large number of loose cultivators to live and practice.

Some people will lament the collapse of the immortal city, but the loose cultivators living here clap their hands and cheer.

If the Mingyuan Sect had not been destroyed, where would they get such a treasure land for cultivation?

Led by the Core Formation late-stage great cultivator, Old Monster Ge, he connected a group of Core Formation cultivators, dredged the blockage of the spiritual vein, and gradually restored some of the scene of the Shangyou Xiancheng.

A group of powerhouses lived in it, each occupying one side.

On this day.

A cultivator with a glowing red face waited quietly outside a fog formation.

After a while, the fog dissipated, and Chu Mo looked at the visitor in surprise.

"Fellow Daoist Feng, how do you have time to come to my place?"

Feng Yinuo laughed and shook the cold-air-filled gourd in his hand.

"Didn't I find a bottle of Su Ice Wine? Nearby, you and I are the only gentlemen of the wine path, so naturally, I want to share it with you. Moreover, last time you helped me beat back a mortal enemy, I have been thinking about how to repay you. I think you shouldn't refuse a bottle of wine."

Chu Mo showed a look of surprise and rubbed his hands: "Is it the Su Ice Wine brewed by the Dieyun Sect in the past?"

Feng Yinuo smiled proudly, "Exactly! With the destruction of the Dieyun Sect, various best-selling spiritual wines are becoming less and less common on the market, especially this Su Ice Wine. I also spent a lot of effort to get this gourd from the black market."

After finishing speaking, he gestured inside with his chin.

"Aren't you going to invite me in?"

Chu Mo chuckled, "Please come in, please come in!"

If Feng Yinuo had brought something else to repay him, he might not have accepted it; after all, helping at that time was just a matter of lifting a finger.

But for him, who is addicted to wine, the Su Ice Wine, which is known as a pseudo-fourth-rank, is definitely the best of the best.

Even when his own small family hadn't been destroyed in the past, he couldn't enjoy a few cups a year.

Since that's the case, why refuse!

The two entered the cave dwelling and began to drink cup after cup.

In their mouths, they chatted about all kinds of things without any scruples.

"Your Chu family was also a wealthy and powerful family in the Tianji Zen Domain back then, how could it just disappear?"

"When the city gate catches fire, the fish in the moat suffer!"

"But I heard that when the Demon Emperor attacked the Tiandou Sect, he didn't attack the Tianji Zen Domain?"

"Alas, the disaster is not with those Demon Emperors. It is the evil obstacle left by that old bald donkey, Monk Huiping, back then!"

"You mean, the Demon-Suppressing Tower?"

"Yes, Monk Huiping died in the Million Great Mountains, and there was no one to preside over the Demon-Suppressing Tower. After many years, the seal loosened, and the demons and evil spirits suppressed inside finally broke through the seal. Brother Feng, you can think about it; they have been suppressed for so many years, how much resentment they must have in their hearts. Once they came out, it was a massacre. If I hadn't fought at Lingtian Pass back then, I would have died at home. It's just a pity for those clansmen of mine!"

"Who isn't? I also established a small sect in the past, claiming to be the ancestor, how majestic. Now the mountain gate is gone, and I have become the loose cultivator I despised the most."

The impact of that human-demon war, which lasted for nearly two hundred years, was too great.

It has completely overturned the order that had stabilized the Eastern Wasteland for three thousand years.

Even though there are still a few well-known Nascent Soul upper sects standing, how many small sects and families have been destroyed.

Like the many Core Formation loose cultivators in this Shangyou Ruined City, are they really loose cultivators?

I'm afraid not!

Take the most powerful Old Monster Ge, I heard he was a true disciple of a Nascent Soul upper sect in the past, hoping to form a Nascent Soul!

Talking about the past, the two of them sighed with emotion.

Chu Mo knocked on the table, "Why talk about these sad past events, drink, drink!"

Feng Yinuo laughed loudly, "Yes, today we only talk about wind and moon, not sad things. We are now free and unfettered; although there is today but no tomorrow, we don't have to be dragged down by the family sect. This fine wine, finally, we don't have to save it!"

As the two laughed heartily, they drank even more vigorously.

But gradually, Chu Mo felt something was wrong.

"Brother Feng, the strength of this Su Ice Wine is too great, why do I feel cold all over?"

Feng Yinuo also felt a chill, but he didn't mind, "Isn't it good to be cool? Now this Shangyou Ruined City is extremely hot due to the influence of the Heavenly Fire Basin. Perhaps this Su Ice Wine has aged, so it has such a magical effect!"

Chu Mo said 'oh', and also felt it was a matter of course.

But after a while, he finally noticed something wrong.

"Not in the gut, but outside!"

He suddenly spread his spiritual sense to perceive the situation.

Feng Yinuo, after a start, did the same.

Soon, they found the source of the chill.

On a broken hilltop, a large amount of spiritual energy was constantly gathering, emitting a terrifying chill outwards.

Wherever the spiritual energy passed, it condensed into frost, like a cold winter.

Even the scorching heat emitted by the Heavenly Fire Basin was temporarily suppressed.

Seeing this scene, the two looked at each other and couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

"Drawing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the birth of a vision—this is someone breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage!"

"Is that place Old Monster Ge?"

"No, although Old Monster Ge mainly practices water-attribute techniques, when ordinary five-element spiritual root cultivators break through to Nascent Soul, they will not trigger such a strange vision. Could it be someone else?"

The two stopped guessing, left the cave dwelling, and found a place to watch from afar.

Their reaction was considered slow.

Before them, in various places in the Shangyou Ruined City, many Core Formation cultivators had already discovered the change.

Everyone was looking up at the sky above Old Monster Ge's place of cultivation.

When a large amount of spiritual energy gathered, disaster clouds gathered, and silver-white electric arcs flickered continuously in the clouds.

Spiritual energy gathers, visions are born.

Tribulation clouds appear, heavenly thunder arrives.

This is clearly the great tribulation of a Core Formation cultivator breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage!

And everyone understands very well what it means for this scene to appear in the Shangyou Ruined City.

It represents that a loose cultivator fellow Daoist has fused the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit and finally successfully taken the last step.

Will it succeed?

They hope that the person undergoing the tribulation will succeed; this represents that the Great Dao is also promising for loose cultivators!

But as the thunder clouds became thicker and the silver-white electric arcs flickered more crazily, everyone's heart became heavier and heavier.

"This is not an ordinary thunder tribulation!"

"Such a big battle, even more terrifying than the genius I saw undergoing the tribulation last time. How deep is the foundation of this person undergoing the tribulation?"

"Is he really a loose cultivator?"

Amidst a discussion, Old Monster Ge, as one of the parties involved, was standing respectfully on the side, carefully.

His gaze wandered between the woman sleeping in the ice coffin and the young man sitting cross-legged nearby.

The terrifying one is not the woman undergoing the tribulation.

It is the young man helping her undergo the tribulation!

What kind of great ability is needed to make a sleeping female cultivator trigger a thunder tribulation?

Especially the elixir contained in the other party's mouth, if he guessed correctly, I'm afraid it is a mid-grade Nascent Soul Formation Pill!

The Nascent Soul Formation Pill is already hard to find in the world; even the Nascent Soul upper sect where Old Monster Ge once belonged didn't have many savings, and they were all treasured and collected as the sect's foundation.

And a mid-grade Nascent Soul Formation Pill?

Old Monster Ge couldn't think of anyone in the world who could refine it.

No!

Perhaps there is one.

Alchemy Sect's Luo Chen!

Once he thought of the one in the rumors, as well as his past brilliant battle achievements, Old Monster Ge couldn't help but hold his breath.

If the person in front of him is really the other party, how should he conduct himself later?

Suddenly, his heart jumped. The woman in the ice coffin had her eyelashes trembling and slowly opened her eyes.

Her beautiful eyes contained countless complex and vicissitudes of emotions.

In her eyes, there was no existence of Old Monster Ge at all, only the young man manipulating the treasure mirror.

With a 'thump', the Nascent Soul Formation Pill was completely refined.

The surrounding spiritual energy gathered more and more quickly, and the tribulation clouds in the sky were also so thick that they seemed to crush the Shangyou Ruined City completely.

The woman opened her mouth awkwardly and finally spat out a sound.

"I've really troubled you!"

Luo Chen smiled slightly, took back the Dust Fate Immortal Mirror that covered Fairy Canglong, and put it into his pocket.

Then he pointed outside, "The bigger trouble is still outside. Senior Sister, you must be careful later."

Fairy Canglong slowly got up from the ice coffin, looked outside, and then nodded to Luo Chen.

"I will do my best!"

Subsequently, she floated up, broke through the restrictions of the cave dwelling formation, and went into the air.

Not only that, a treasure tower and a flying sword beside her also followed.

That treasure tower, with nine levels, half new and half old, is the Ice Fortress's sect-protecting high-grade magic treasure, the Moon Brilliance Ice Fortress, which Luo Chen helped repair. The name of the Ice Fortress also comes from this.

That flying sword, with an elegant shape, has a Fairy Canglong pearl inlaid at the junction of the hilt and the blade; it is the natal magic treasure of the Ice Fortress's founding ancestor. Even the name of Fairy Canglong Fairy is named after this.

At this moment, Fairy Canglong is undergoing the tribulation, and what she can rely on are these two treasures and her own strength.

Can it succeed?

Even Fairy Canglong herself didn't have much confidence in her heart.

Because this thunder tribulation far exceeded the complete three rounds she experienced last time.

The reason for this certainly includes the increased difficulty of the second tribulation, but also the factor of Luo Chen's help.

Especially the latter!

It is the main reason for attracting such a terrifying thunder tribulation!

But Fairy Canglong is unswerving!

Having experienced that dream lasting hundreds of years in the Dust Fate Immortal Mirror, she has already understood too much.

Without an indomitable momentum, without the determination to die and then live, how can this world let you become a "real person"?

Moreover, the gaze watching her from behind gave her absolute confidence.

She believes that when she can't hold on, the other party will take action.

Because this thunder tribulation is not just her own.

"Must do my best!"

The woman, whose face was still slightly pale, rushed to the thunder tribulation.

Luo Chen, who was composed, did not completely relax.

With a wave of his hand, a huge stone suddenly appeared and floated in the air.

Opening his mouth to spit, a blue-white flame erupted like a fire snake, beginning to burn the big stone.

Although the flame was not big, the temperature was extremely high.

In a short while, the golden stone began to melt continuously, dripping into strands of golden liquid.

Like mercury, it flowed slowly in the air.

Old Monster Ge watched this scene and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Geng Metal!

And it is the highest-grade Nine Yang Geng Metal among Geng Metal!

Even, such a big piece!

Just this thing, once it appears in the world, I don't know how many cultivators will fight for it and set off a bloody storm.

But at this moment, he didn't dare to have any greed at all.

Because that piece of Geng Metal is being melted into liquid little by little by the terrifying true fire.

Legend has it that Alchemy Sect's Luo Chen once had a life-and-death battle with Huang Man, the son of the Ancient Demon Emperor, in the Yaowang Domain!

That battle ended with Alchemy Sect's Luo Chen using a mysterious and powerful flame to burn the son of the Ancient Demon to ashes.

What kind of powerful flame can burn a Great Demon Emperor to death?

Perhaps, only the blue-white flame in front of him that can melt gold and forge iron can do it!

Luo Chen glanced at him and said lightly: "Have you guessed my identity?"

Old Monster Ge knelt on the ground without hesitation.

"True disciple of the Yangu Island, Ge Wangji, meets Alchemy Sect senior!"

"Yangu Island?" Luo Chen's mouth curled up, "Is it the descendant of an old friend? What is your relationship with Xiao Shiniang?"

"She is my master!"

"I remember that Fellow Daoist Xiao died in the battle of Lingtian Pass. Since you are her disciple, why didn't you rebuild the sect after your master died, but instead became an unknown loose cultivator in this ruined city?"

"The junior's own cultivation is still trembling, let alone restoring the sect. Moreover, the current Eastern Wasteland immortal cultivation world is controlled and enslaved by the Tianyuan Dao Sect, and there is a trend of starting disputes with the Demon Race again. Under such a general trend, even if I rebuild Yangu Island, it will only be cannon fodder. Since that's the case, it's better to be a loose cultivator, free and unfettered, not controlled."

Luo Chen couldn't help but sigh slightly when he heard this answer.

Loose cultivators win in freedom, but the difficulties are only known to themselves.

Ge Wangji is a good name.

Choosing to forget the heart of the machine amidst the blades, seeking a natural inaction, transcending the secular world.

"Borrowing your cave dwelling to undergo the tribulation today is also a fate."

"But the identity of this sect is sensitive and it is not easy to expose. Moreover, after today, I am afraid that this cave dwelling will be difficult to preserve, and you will have no place to practice."

"Therefore, this sect gives you two choices. One is to join my Luo Tian Sect and be a guest elder. Second..."

Ge Wangji knelt on the ground without hesitation and kowtowed to Luo Chen.

"The junior chooses the first one!"

He didn't even listen to what the second choice was.

Luo Chen laughed loudly, a mere Core Formation cultivator, how can he talk about transcending the secular world?

This Ge Wangji is quite sensible.

Of course, his own actions are indeed suspected of bullying the small with the big.

With a wave of his hand, a jade bottle fell in front of Ge Wangji.

"Seeing you staring at the Nascent Soul Formation Pill, I think you are also reaching the bottleneck of cultivation. This is the first salary I give to the guest elder of the Luo Tian Sect!"

Ge Wangji took the jade bottle, and his heart couldn't help but beat violently.

Although he said he didn't want to get involved in worldly affairs and didn't want to fight with others.

But how could he not miss the beautiful scene of having the protection of a big force and only needing to focus on cultivation?

Alchemy Sect is indeed generous!

Also at this time, Fairy Canglong's tribulation outside has gradually entered a dangerous situation.

A cultivator's life, if it goes smoothly, will experience the Three-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, a total of three times, each time three rounds.

Fairy Canglong has already passed the first two rounds of the heavenly tribulation, but the third round of the heavenly tribulation has not descended for a long time, just continuously accumulating momentum.

In the unspeakable waiting, Fairy Canglong gasped continuously, and her heart kept sinking.

Just these first two rounds completely exceeded the complete three rounds she experienced back then.

She couldn't imagine what kind of power the last round of heavenly tribulation would have?

Thunderbolts as thick as water buckets flickered continuously in the clouds, gradually appearing.

A total of nine!

Fairy Canglong gasped, and the onlookers nearby were in an uproar.

Why is there such a terrifying thunder tribulation?

After brewing for a long time, the heavenly punishment no longer gives people time to react.

Nine thunderbolts fell with a bang.

Just at this time.

A figure appeared abruptly, blocking in front of Fairy Canglong.

Five fingers spread, clenching into a fist.

Immediately, a punch was thrown!

Boom!

The vast sound made countless people's brains buzz, and the continuously annihilating electric light stung their eyes.

In Fairy Canglong's shocked eyes, Luo Chen bathed in the thunder and dew, and five sword pills flew up lightly from his body, wrapped in a large amount of Nine Yang Geng Metal liquid, and rushed straight into the thunder clouds. (End of chapter)
