The sky was churning, and thunder echoed across the heaven and earth.
When the wind and clouds surged, patches of black clouds appeared in the sky, accumulating thicker and thicker and expanding in scope.
And the wind in the green sand desert became more powerful, and the whistling sound was like the howling of ghosts and wolves.
Waves of depressing feelings descended from the sky, covering not only the place where Xu Qing was, but also the entire Qingsha Desert.
The roaring sound fell from the nine heavens, and the hearts of all living beings in the green sand desert jumped.
All the forces in the mountain, including the cultivators in the Kusheng Mountain Range, were all frightened. Even some people in the Red Moon Temple raised their heads and looked at the sky.
"what's the situation?"
"There's something wrong with the sky..."
Chen Fanzhuo was sitting cross-legged in his sect. He was also frightened at this moment. He quickly opened his eyes and looked at the dark sky, feeling uneasy in his heart. He didn't know what was going on.
Equally uneasy was Mu Daozi, who was accompanying an old man in black robes and carefully serving apprenticeship tea. The tea cup he was holding shook a little and the tea spilled.
The old man in black robe in front of him instantly raised his head and looked up at the sky, with the same surprised look on his face.
And Patriarch Mo Gui, the strongest casual cultivator in the Kusheng Mountains, appeared in mid-air in an instant while he was sitting cross-legged in meditation. His face was more solemn than ever before, and he looked towards the sky.
Everyone is like this, even the desert-shou clan living under the desert is like this.
Not to mention the source of all this, the people floating in the sun in mid-air.
Ning Yan trembled, Wu Jianwu breathed in, Li Yougui was horrified, and the captain stood there looking expectantly, looking down.
"The prince is right. Ever since little Ah Qing was considered the future governor of Fenghai County, the old man has obviously given safety as his first priority."
"But it's not as serious as what the prince said. Little Ah Qing's Taoist heart is slowly being shaped. In a few years, he will naturally have his own Tao and won't need guidance from others."
"But at this stage, for little Ah Qing, this is a good thing."
The captain thought of this and looked towards the earth.
On the ground, the prince, who transformed into an old grandfather, slowly rose into the sky with his hands behind his back. The moment he left, the sky roared like never before, and arc-shaped lightning suddenly appeared in the sky and traveled in all directions.
Its scope continued to grow, from a thousand feet at the beginning to ten thousand feet, and continued until it finally covered less than half of the green sand desert.
Such a marvelous sight brought incomparable horror to all living beings in the Qingsha Desert.
Before they could take a closer look, roars like the roar of gods exploded from all directions, countless thunders echoed, and countless arc-shaped lightnings gathered into streaks of sky thunder, covering half of the desert and falling on a large scale.
Crack it on the sand!
There were no fewer than three thousand thunderbolts.
These three thousand sky thunders fell in different places, and after they landed, they quickly gathered under the desert towards the place where Xu Qing was as the gravel roared.
It was like three thousand thunder dragons, all coming together with astonishing momentum. The ground churned, leaving long marks.
After experiencing this scene, the captain took a breath and opened his eyes wide. Even he was shocked at this moment.
"This is going to kill little Ah Qing!"
The captain was shocked and was about to fly out in a flash, but the Crown Prince turned his head and glanced at him in mid-air.
"Don't be impatient!"
The captain paused, his expression changing continuously.
At this moment, three thousand thunder dragons roared and headed straight for Xu Qing. Looking around, the ground around him continued to explode. When the sound was overwhelming, the three thousand thunder dragons finally gathered!
A sound that spread across the Qingsha Desert turned into a violent sound wave and spread deafeningly. Under the desert where Xu Qing was, the surrounding sand shattered and suddenly exploded in the sound.
There was even a shrill scream that came from within the sun, attracting the attention of Ning Yan and others.
They saw that after Xu Qing absorbed it, the only remaining divine envoy of the Red Moon Temple, at this moment, his body emitted lightning from the inside to the outside, shattered into pieces, turned into a diamond-shaped piece of wood, and fell to the ground.
His sudden death did not wait for anyone to react. The earth's fluctuations were intense instantly, and the ripples spread thousands of miles during the continuous explosions.
Finally, looking from a distance, a thousand-mile deep pit appeared in the earth.
In the middle was a charred five-foot-long body, lying there motionless, life or death unknown.
"It's a bit bad. Three thousand heavenly thunders only withstood a few hundred." The prince shook his head, raised his right hand and pulled the charred body in front of him, then turned and returned to the sun.
After arriving at the sun, Ling'er ran over quickly with an anxious face and red eyes.
"Brother Xu Qing!"
Seeing Xu Qing's body covered with injuries and dying, Ling'er shed tears, hugged Xu Qing and looked at the prince.
"Grandpa, you..."
Ning Yan and Wu Jianwu didn't dare to breathe. Looking at Xu Qing who was motionless, their hearts trembled.
"He can't die." The prince said calmly. As soon as he finished speaking, he found Ling'er crying, and his heart softened.
"This is also a kind of experience, and with the Red Moon Divine Envoy continuing the calamity, when your brother Xu Qing reaches the limit, the other party will share the burden on his own..."
Upon hearing this, the captain looked towards the place where the dissipated divine envoy was, his heart was churning, and he was murmuring in his heart.
"Xi Nan Tu Ling."
Wu Jianwu and Ning Yan also understood the reason for the scene just now, and they took a breath.
Especially Ning Yan, he knew a lot of secrets. At this moment, an ancient ritual that he saw in ancient books suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Xi Nantuling!"
Ning Yan has read many ancient books and is very impressed by the technique of Xi Nan Tu Ling. No one knows how to deploy this technique in this era, but during the period of the Ancient Emperor Xuanyou, this technique was extremely vicious.
Xinan is a very dangerous tree that lives in ancient times. It will go through a tribulation every thousand years, and every time it goes through a tribulation, countless powerful people will die inexplicably in various places.
Later generations researched and found that there were some strange connections. All the strong men who died had replaced Xi Nan's calamity and died for the calamity.
So gradually some people figured out this ritual.
In the era of the ancient emperor Xuanyou, only the geniuses of the royal family would perform this method under the auspices of the elders, using foreigners as substitutes for the tribulation.
The most astonishing thing about Xinan Tu Ling is that it can make the person who has overcome the tribulation reach his own extreme. After going through the test of life and death, it will be turned into a piece of wood for him to repair the tribulation.
This piece of wood possesses the power of curse, and once it explodes, its power is astonishing.
Thinking of this, Ning Yan suddenly looked towards the place where the divine envoy died. There was a piece of wood there.
At the same time, the outside sky returned to normal as the thunder dissipated, and the black clouds also dissipated, but the fluctuations from the earth were still spreading.
It seemed to be only a thousand miles away, but just now three thousand thunderbolts landed, causing a sensation throughout the Qingsha Desert, causing countless mountains to shake, and even the Kusheng Mountains to shake violently.
There were constant exclamations inside, and the solemn meaning was extremely strong.
One after another figures rose into the sky, wisps of spiritual thoughts formed, and panic and vigilance all erupted.
"Which great master is this who is overcoming the tribulation?"
"It's not like overcoming a tribulation, it's more like refining things!"
Suddenly, countless doubts and speculations arose among all living beings in the Green Sand Desert. Even the Red Moon Temple was shaken and went out to search to find out the cause.
But found nothing.
The impact of this incident is extremely profound for the Qingsha Desert monks.
As the strongest among the casual cultivators, Patriarch Mo Gui was taking a deep breath in the mid-air of the Kusheng Mountains, looking at the sky with his weathered eyes, and murmuring.
"The wind is about to rise in the green sand desert..."
Similar emotions arose in the hearts of many strong men. On the other side of Mu Daozi, the old man in black robe sitting in front of him was also trembling in his mind at this moment. He took Mu Daozi's tea for a long time and spoke in a low voice.
"Don't leave the Kusheng Mountains in the near future. I'm just terrified. I always have a bad feeling. You haven't done anything extraordinary recently, right?"
Mu Daozi shook his head quickly.
"Master, this disciple has been here all this time, preparing to build the mountain gate, and has not done anything extraordinary."
The old man in black robe nodded.
At this moment, Xu Qing, who had caused all these fluctuations, reluctantly opened his eyes in the sun. He could feel that his body was extremely weak, but at the same time as he was weak, there was an astonishing force churning.
Thirteen Nascent Souls have all reached the level of three tribulations.
Its combat power has skyrocketed, and any Nascent Soul cultivator who encounters it will feel despair and horror in its heart.
At this moment, Xu Qing can already fight against the strong men in the early stages of cultivating the Tao.
Those who are strong in cultivating the Dao, and those who are weak are far beyond the Yuanying monks. As for the powerful, they are infinitely close to the spiritual treasure. Once they form the way of heaven, they can break through their own limitations, turn the void into reality, and achieve the true secret treasure!
In this way, three days passed while Xu Qing was healing.
The Kusheng Mountains are far away.
After Ling'er saw that Brother Xu Qing was fine here, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, became lively again, and introduced the pharmacy to the prince.
"Grandpa, my pharmacy is very beautiful. Especially the interior of the pharmacy is very cozy with my decoration. I wipe it clean and spotless every day."
Ling'er was happy, Ning Yan and Wu Jianwu were also curious, and the captain also looked forward to it.
As for Li Yougui, he was just as excited in his heart. He escaped last time, but this time he was different. The Mogui ancestor was now a joke in front of him.
The prince smiled, feeling very happy in his heart. He once had an extraordinary status, could not appreciate worldly happiness, and had no sense of family relationships. Then he was suppressed in the sea of fire and suffered incomparably.
Even when he returned, he mostly healed alone, but these days with these children, listening to their grandparents shouting, he didn't say anything, but he felt a rare warmth in his heart.
So when he heard Ling'er's happy words, he smiled and nodded, but when he glanced at the outside world, his expression was a little weird.
"Ling'er, your family's medicine shop is in Tucheng a hundred miles ahead?"
"Yes, grandpa, it was in that earth city, and I finally came home." Ling'er's eyes showed anticipation.
At this moment, as the sun gradually approached the Kusheng Mountains, Xu Qing also postponed his healing and stood up weakly. With Ling'er's support, he looked outside in the direction of Tucheng, feeling deep in his heart.
This time I went out again and again for half a year.
But the next moment, Xu Qing's eyes narrowed.
A ruin appeared in his perception.
Then a roar came from the direction of Tucheng, and as dust flew, the few remaining houses there collapsed.
Xu Qing was stunned.
