Chapter 122: He is a disciple of the White Cloud Sect after all, his heart is still kind

Boom!

Before Jiang Xun could speak, a loud boom already thundered in the air.

Liu Chennian also hurriedly stopped in his tracks.

He was already injured, so it was impossible for him to withstand the Heavenly Tribulation.

"It's fine, I have the Ni..."

Jiang Xun stopped mid-sentence, stunned in place.

The Nine Heavens Reversal Robe was being nurtured in his mother's cave dwelling!

It was completely unreliable right now.

If the Nine Heavens Reversal Robe were here, this Nascent Soul Stage Heavenly Tribulation would be harmless to him.

Now that the heavenly lightning had arrived, Jiang Xun could only take a gamble; fortunately, he had taken a Top-grade Spirit Transformation Pill this time and had Soul-Suppressor in hand, so it would go much smoother.

"Kid, don't run!"

Jiang Xun shouted as he looked at Liu Chennian.

At the same time, the first bolt of heavenly lightning struck down; Jiang Xun switched his Crimson Wings to Black Feather Wing, completely blocking this tribulation, and remained unscathed.

He then immediately chased after Liu Chennian, who was preparing to flee.

"You're crazy! You can't withstand a Spirit Transformation Stage Heavenly Tribulation!"

Seeing this, Liu Chennian shouted while fleeing.

Another bolt of tribulation struck down; Jiang Xun tossed Soul-Suppressor high into the air, where it collided with the tribulation, the two canceling each other out.

Soul-Suppressor fell back into Jiang Xun's hand.

"Whether I can withstand it or not, I'll only know after I try!"

Jiang Xun continued to chase after Liu Chennian and shouted.

————

"What's going on?"

Yin Ningyu also noticed the direction of the Heavenly Tribulation, her brows furrowed tightly; could it be that Jiang Xun was breaking through?

After all, he was at Nascent Soul Great Perfection when he arrived, so it really could be him breaking through at this time.

But, breaking through at a time like this?

This...

Isn't it inappropriate?

Yin Ningyu thought to herself while accelerating, catching up to Zhang Yaozhi and slashing down with her sword.

Her heart was set on Jiang Xun now; she had to quickly finish off Zhang Yaozhi and go over to take a look.

————

"Ugh..."

On the other side, Chen Mo was in great pain from being bound by the tree-men, but if he dispelled his Dharma Image now, his physical body wouldn't be able to withstand it!

Seeing there was no other way, Chen Mo, inside the Dharma Image, took out a piece of talisman paper.

"Oh no."

Zhong Lingqing was startled at the sight; that was a Great Displacement Talisman!

Without giving Zhong Lingqing any time to react, Chen Mo immediately used the Great Displacement Talisman, and he, along with his Dharma Image, vanished before Zhong Lingqing's eyes.

When he reappeared, he was already a thousand miles away.

"Damn it," Zhong Lingqing cursed under her breath; the teleportation direction of the Great Displacement Talisman was random, and even the user didn't know where they would appear, let alone the person pursuing them.

Zhong Lingqing scanned her surroundings, eventually having to rely on her intuition to choose a direction and pursue at full speed, while sending a message to Jiang Xun.

————

"Chen Mo used a Great Displacement Talisman and ran! What's your situation, are you undergoing Tribulation Transcendence?"

Just as Jiang Xun withstood the third bolt of heavenly lightning, Zhong Lingqing's voice rang in his ears.

But he had no time to respond to Zhong Lingqing now, as he saw the fourth bolt of heavenly lightning already descending.

If Jiang Xun wanted to catch up to Liu Chennian, it would naturally be very easy.

But to put it bluntly, he didn't dare to actually catch up to Liu Chennian; after all, he really couldn't withstand a Spirit Transformation Stage Heavenly Tribulation.

So he just drifted in front of Liu Chennian and drove him toward the direction of Yin Ningyu.

Liu Chennian, whose only thought was to avoid the Heavenly Tribulation, could only flee along the route Jiang Xun had arranged.

The top priority was to not let this Heavenly Tribulation strike him.

Boom!

The fourth bolt of heavenly lightning fell.

Jiang Xun exerted his full strength to drive the Crimson Wings, darting out at an extremely fast speed.

The Heavenly Tribulation struck the sea with a boom, blasting up a large group of pitch-black fish, then immediately turned and continued to chase after Jiang Xun.

Lightning also appeared in Jiang Xun's hand, attaching to Soul-Suppressor, and collided with the Heavenly Tribulation, blasting the lightning away.

This was also the benefit of having a Mixed Spiritual Root; some of these messy spiritual roots were not things ordinary cultivators possessed.

As for the specific techniques Jiang Xun could use, there were four: wind, water, fire, and lightning.

Being a Mixed Spiritual Root user, combined with the water and fire within his body being incompatible, his cultivation speed was even slower than that of an ordinary Mixed Spiritual Root user.

"Stop chasing!"

Liu Chennian looked back at Jiang Xun in a breakdown and shouted.

"Fine, if you self-detonate, I won't chase you anymore!"

Jiang Xun shouted at Liu Chennian.

Upon hearing this, Liu Chennian wore an expression as if he had eaten excrement; just as he turned his head to continue fleeing, he saw a blood-drenched figure appear before him, and the two nearly collided.

Fortunately, at the very last moment, they shifted their positions to miss each other.

Who else could that blood-drenched figure be but Zhang Yaozhi?

With this dodge, he completely lost his balance and plunged headfirst into the sea.

Yin Ningyu followed closely behind, and seeing Liu Chennian coming toward her and Jiang Xun undergoing Tribulation Transcendence, she understood the situation in her heart.

Jiang Xun had done this to prevent Liu Chennian from escaping, and since he could not defeat Liu Chennian himself, he had used the Heavenly Tribulation to force Liu Chennian back.

She did not hesitate in the slightest, twirling her sword to form a flourish, and slashed out a Wind Blade, carving a hideous bloody gash across Liu Chennian's chest.

Liu Chennian's entire body also fell toward the surface of the sea.

"I'll leave him to you!"

Seeing this, Jiang Xun shouted to Yin Ningyu, then flew toward the mountains to find a place to undergo Tribulation Transcendence.

"Rest assured!"

Yin Ningyu nodded repeatedly, then immediately let her body sink, pursuing in the direction of Liu Chennian.

On the sea surface, Zhang Yaozhi floated powerlessly.

He had been slashed by Yin Ningyu's sword Qi the entire way and was covered in wounds; the injury to his throat was already beyond control, and the sea surface around him had turned entirely red.

This body was completely beyond saving!

Thus, Liu Chennian's Nascent Soul had already detached and was fleeing from beneath the sea.

Seeing this, Yin Ningyu decided to finish off Zhang Yaozhi's Nascent Soul first; after locking onto Zhang Yaozhi's aura, Yin Ningyu slashed out three tornadoes identical to those of Zhong Lingqing, smashing them toward the sea surface.

This directly whipped up three massive water spouts, sending both Zhang Yaozhi and Liu Chennian flying into the air.

Yin Ningyu appeared instantly before Zhang Yaozhi's Nascent Soul and slashed it with her sword.

She then performed a backflip, stomped her foot onto Liu Chennian's chest, and kicked him back into the sea.

After the water spouts subsided, Liu Chennian clutched his chest, revealing half his body from the sea in a disheveled state, and looked up at Yin Ningyu in the air with a look of resignation to death.

"Sigh... I give up." Liu Chennian let out a long sigh, knowing he absolutely could not escape today.

He loosened his grip, and the sword in his hand was washed away by the seawater.

"Sorry..."

Seeing this, Yin Ningyu could not help but feel a bit soft-hearted.

Attacking someone who had discarded their weapon was definitely not something the former her would have done.

Hearing Yin Ningyu say "sorry," Liu Chennian was also stunned.

First, he had not expected her to be a woman, and second, he had not expected her to actually say sorry.

Could it be that she was forced by circumstances?

Liu Chennian, who had been preparing to self-destruct, slowly stopped the circulation of his Spirit Power and closed his eyes: "Come."

He was a disciple of the Baiyun Sect after all, and deep down, he was still kind.

Yin Ningyu's hand gripping the sword trembled slightly, thinking of Jiang Xun and Zhong Lingqing still undergoing Tribulation Transcendence and fighting bitterly, and then thinking of the safety of the Lingerie-Sect...

In the end, she swung her sword.

At the same time, Jiang Xun's Heavenly Tribulation had already reached the seventh stage.
