Swish—
The vortex in front of the cave disappeared. Without light from outside, the Cang Lei’s Cave became dim.
Ban Qian and the others looked at each other. Then they saw a big ancient hall in the distance, but they didn’t dare to walk around.
Who knew what kind of tactical matrix Su Jiuzhouhad set in the cave? If they unfortunately walked into the wrong places, they would be killed.
“Well.”
Fang Mu said helplessly, “Do we have to be standing still at the door if Su Jiuzhou didn’t give us any guidance?”
Ban Qian looked at the construct of the cave. Then he was more and more confused.
“Are you the newcomers?”
At this time, Hong Baizhu floated from the distance. Without the blood tears, she looked like a cute girl. Xuan Yu’er liked her very much.
“What a cute girl she is!”
Saying that, Xuan Yu’er was going to touch Hong Baizhu’s head. When Ban Qian came to his senses and saw it, he was shocked and pulled Xuan Yu’er back quickly. Then he explained their origins to Hong Baizhu.
“I know you. You have been with Sister recently. I believe you. Come with me.”
Hong Baizhu nodded and then skipped along.
Everyone followed her hurriedly.
“Brother Ban, why don’t let me touch her? She looks so cute.”
Xuan Yu’er couldn’t help but whisper. Ban Qian gave her a forced smile and transmitted the sound, “This little girl wiped out the ghosts in the previous tests. You should know the ghosts could only be exterminated by the same kind of them. Do you…dare to touch her now?”
Since he had been Su Li’s side for a long time, he had some conjectures of Hong Baizhu’s origin.
Hearing this, Xuan Yu’er was in a cold sweat.
“Humph! Ban Qian, you speak ill of me. I will tell Sister!”
Hong Baizhu stopped suddenly. She turned around and spoke angrily.
Ban Qian was awkward. He forced a smile, “Is there any other road we can choose?”
Hong Baizhu was unhappy. She pouted, “Then you can go to the big tree. I don’t want to take you to my place.”
“What is the big tree?”
“You have so many questions. Come with me.”
Ban Qian could only follow her, and the others also obediently follow her to make a detour.
After a short time, they saw a giant tree, which stretched its thousands of branches into the air. There were divine lights around it. And thousands of rays of divine lights fell from it.
When Ban Qian saw the giant tree, he was stunned.
“The Wood Ancestral ThunderTree! How is it possible?! In this place??!”
There were only two streaks of old Ancestral Thunders in Fenglei Holy Sect. Moreover, the thunder in front of them was much more vibrant than each of those two old thunders in Fenglei Holy Sect!
Yin Xuetong and others also recognized the origin of this tree. She couldn’t help but ask, “Holy Boy Ban, are you sure that this is not the holy land of your Fenglei Holy Sect?”
Ban Qian was puzzled. At this moment, a barefoot boy, who was handsome and in white, came over. His body was exuding the pneumaof the Divine Thunder of Wood.
Hong Baizhu walked aside. She said disgustedly, “Big tree, Ban Qian is yours now. I will take away the others.”
Su Bai glanced over the crowd and said, “Since Sister lets these people come in, she must want them to have a good rest. If they come to your place, they will get worse. Sister doesn’t want to see that certainly.”
Hong Baizhu’s eyes turned red. “Bad tree! Bad tree! I can’t outspeak you, so you always bully me! I will not talk to you anymore. Boohoo…”
While she spoke, two lines of blood tears ran down from her face. Then she ran away. The others were in a daze.
Su Bai sighed. He had followed Su Li for many years. He was mature now, but Hong Baizhu was still childish.
“Forget it. As your brother, I need to give in to you.”
Then Su Bai nodded to the crowd, “You guys come with me.”
Fang Mu swallowed. With an arm holding Yin Xuetong and a hand dragging Ban Qian who was petrified, Fang Mu walked behind Su Bai. Su Bai approached his real body.
“What happened to Ban Qian?”
Xuan Yu’er came next to Yin Xuetong and asked carefully and curiously.
Yin Xuetong showed a complex smile, “Probably, since he saw the spirit of Ancestral Thunder that he has never seen in Fenglei Holy Sect. He is absent-minded.”
“Is the boy in white the spirit of Ancestral Thunder?”
Xuan Yu’er was surprised and blinked happily.
Su Jiuzhou must be the good helper. Her master could get out of the death test!
After a short while, everyone followed Su Bai to the tree.
Su Bai sat down cross-legged against the roots of the tree. He pointed to the surrounding, “Just help yourselves. Sitting here in meditation to heal would help you recover as soon as possible. When someone recovers, he or she can go to Hong Baizhu’s place to chat with her and keep her company.”
Then he looked at Ban Qian, “There is a little conflict between you and Hong Baizhu. You stay here. Your body has the pneuma of the same origin with mine. But it’s not pure. So, you stay here to practice.”
“Really…really?”
Ban Qian was so excited that he stammered. But he hesitated, “Will it affect you? Your real body can’t get many inborn thunders in the outside world. Moreover, you take root in the other’s cave.”
“No need to worry.”
Su Bai smiled slightly and looked back at his huge real body, “When I just moved here, I was only a half of my size now. Sister is here. I don’t have to worry.”
“In addition to thunder for testing, could the Human Clan trigger the inborn thunders?”
Ban Qian was totally confused.
“Thank you for leaving us here to heal our wounds.”
Yin Xuetong lowered her head as a salute, “You are a thunder spirit. Why do you regard a human as your master? And there is a little ghost. Thunder spirits are the sworn enemies of ghosts. Why do you…”
Su Bai’s eyes became very cold, and he gave out violent divine light, “Sister is more distinguished than anyone. You shouldn’t slander her. Go to the Hong Bai’s place after you heal yourself. Do not stay here.”
Yin Xuetong was little shocked and lowered her head hurriedly, “Sorry.”
Inborn thunder could rival the inborn treasure like the Reincarnation Mirror. If he flared up, she could not resist.
“As for Hong Baizhu, even though my attribute is in opposition to hers, we all belong to Sister. Naturally, I should get along well with her. I see her as my younger sister. Hong Baizhu is simple. If I know you bully her, I will not forgive you!”
Su Bai snorted and flicked his sleeves. Then he turned into green light and disappeared.
Yin Xuetong gave a sigh of relief. Her back was drenched by her sweat.
“Su Jiuzhou… Whether she is that person I guessed or not, she is no less than a Junior Emperor. But we didn’t know her before!”
“Hey, look. What is this?”
The sound came from a short distance. They saw Xuan Yu’er stand in front of a spherical vine. Suddenly, the leaves around the vine bloomed like a flower. Then a figure huddling up appeared.
“Is this…Qu Qingning?!!”
Xuan Yu’er was bewildered and stepped back, “Why is he here?”
Holding Yin Xuetong, Fang Mu walked closer and saw a familiar face. Then they had complex emotions.
“There is something in Sister Xuetong’s mind that she finds it hard to disclose. And how about Brother Qu?”
Fang Mu had this thought in his mind. Yin Xuetong’s expression became more complex.
She was silent for a second. Then she raised her head and asked, “Holy Boy Ban, was Qu Qingning forcibly invited here by Su Jiuzhou like us?”
Ban Qian forced a smile, “He suffered much more than you did. When Holy Boy Qu appeared, he wanted to kill us. Then he was seriously injuredby Fellow Practitioner Su. So, he was sent here. Now he almost recovered. The Wood Ancestral ThunderTree is amazing.”
When Fang Mu and Yin Xuetong heard this, they were silent for a while.
“Since Holy Boy Qu have practiced the holy method in the Reincarnation Mirror, he became more conceited and unbridled. He still wanted to kill the others. No wonder he was beat up by Fellow Practitioner Su.”
said Xuan Yu’er reasonably. Then she walked aside to sit in meditation and heal herself. Suddenly, a branch dropped down from the ancestral tree andshrouded her with green light flowing into her. Xuan Yu’er’s pale face gradually became florid.
Yin Xuetong saw Qu Qingning was still in a coma. She signed and sat against the vine.
During this time, Fang Mu breathed the healing light of Divine Thunder of Wood. His skin trauma was almost healed. He did not dare to go against what Su bai said before. After he said farewell to Yin Xuetong, he set out towards Hong Baizhu’s place according to Su Bai’s guidance.
Ban Qian sat aside awkwardly and lost in thought.
“Well, three of the top four holy sects’ holy boys and holy girl were caught by Fellow Practitioner Su.”
He was somewhat horrified, “Fellow Practitioner Su… What does she want to do?”
…
Jiang Run hung upside down from the beam. Being bored, he looked at the dense memorial tablets in the center of the ancestral temple.
He had only three days to reach the summit. Half of the time had gone. He had given up the idea of going outside. It seemed that the spirit of the Mysterious Realm insisted that he should stay here for 2,000 years.
Fortunately, this place abounded with nimbus. The nimbus here was also strong and thick. He would never die here. So, he could practice for 2,000 years here before going out.
“Forget it!”
Jiang Run jumped from the beam. He sighed and sat cross-legged. Then he gradually entered trance state.
Closing his eyes, he did not find the memorial tablets began to shake slightly…
—
At the same time, Su Li put away the cave and summoned the evil ghost. It instantly appeared behind her and then integrated into her body.
In an instant, Su Li’s pure eyes became deepdark. Surrounded by ghost energy, her ten fingernails were dyed black.
She waved her sleeves. Then the mountain was like being corroded by something. It melted into powder and was blew away by wind. A narrow corridor emerged in front of her.
“Why don’t you climb the Shengxian Mountain but go through a hole? What do you find?”
Black Lotus appeared helplessly.
Su Li calmly stepped into the corridor in a slow pace. She whispered, “In the evil ghost state, I can hear the sounds from the mountain. I am curious.”
“Hurry up. Although you have caught those three people, there is still one holy boy outside. It will be terrible if he becomes the first one on the Tianjiao List.
“Don’t worry. I have my own method.”
Su Li touched the right arm which emitted the force of summoning. Her eyes were cold. Then she flicked her sleeves and disappeared.
