boom!
Purple thunder struck down from the sky, setting off waves of sand and dust. Bright fireworks instantly engulfed the entire white jade arena square, and smoke and dust slowly rose.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and the thunder sea rolled and roared.
This change really shocked everyone present.
The Red Emperor who resisted this catastrophe forcefully had his skin flushed red with faint traces of burning. And he was in a daze for a few moments, and the strong sense of paralysis almost made him faint.
But when he came back to his senses, the Red Emperor exclaimed in shock: "Heavenly tribulation! There has never been a catastrophe in thousands of years. How could it happen today...!?"
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the black clouds and purple lightning in the sky, like a heavy and oppressive sea of thunder pressing above their heads, which was frightening.
The Heavenly Thunder Tribulation that only existed eons ago has not appeared again for a long, long time. To this day, most monks have never seen heavenly tribulation, and even think that it is a fictitious word made up by the ancients.
Although the Master of Sifang Palace has lived for thousands of years, he has never seen this divine power of heavenly calamity until today.
Northern Saint Changyang, who was dragged by the maid Yue'er, was stunned for a moment. He suddenly noticed that the spiritual sword in his hand was trembling. The history of heaven-level artifacts is much longer than that of humans. The sword spirit has experienced heavenly catastrophes, so naturally it is more powerful. for fear.
"Impossible, why are 70% of the sword spirits in my collection of heaven-level divine swords afraid of..."
Changyang was stunned for a long time, then looked up at the sky, "The leader once said that the way of heaven was defeated and the empress was weak, but why today -"
But before he finished speaking and before he regained consciousness, Yue'er's dagger coated with poison struck from the darkness like a poisonous snake.
Clang!
Blocking it with a sword, it was just another heaven-level artifact in Changyang's hand that was corroded by the poison.
Qi Xi smiled softly and said: "The heavenly tribulations of the past were also a test for monks by Heaven. Although the monks at that time always acted against heaven, in the eyes of heaven, they were like rebellious children. The heavenly tribulations are short-lived. The lessons are also a test for ancient monks. Those who survive the heavenly tribulation can greatly enhance their cultivation level and physical strength. This is a gift from heaven and earth."
"Times have changed, and the rebellious children have grown up. Monks no longer pride themselves on defying nature, but walk around the world with 'Tao following nature', following the order of heaven and earth, the change of spring and autumn, the reincarnation of all things, endless life, and being level with the sky. . Then, there is no need for the existence of the Heavenly Tribulation."
This moment is Qi Xi's performance as the Temple Empress.
Ye An stood beside him silently, as if he were a passerby and stopped talking. But when he heard Qi Xi's words, he couldn't help but feel surprised. He clearly heard every word clearly, but when they were put together...he didn't understand anything, he just felt that the aura was too strong.
"However, the emergence of today's heavenly tribulation is not a test of heaven's will on the human race."
When he said this, Qi Xi's eyebrows were sharp and his voice was cold, "It's... the punishment imposed by heaven on the human race's rebels!"
"Do it!"
The moment her voice fell.
But he saw that the surrounding space was torn apart, thousands of feet of golden light shone brightly, and soldiers wearing golden armor walked out of the cracks in the space.
Those soldiers wearing golden armor were all the elites of the Zhongzhou Temple. They were only at the mercy of the Empress Qi Xi. The leader was a heaven-level executioner, and each of them could fight one against a hundred.
A group of temple soldiers appeared, either holding spears or swords. The moment they appeared, they roared and roared and stepped forward to kill the enemy.
The skeletons surrounding them from all directions had already been injured by the aftermath of the first catastrophe.
At this moment, facing a group of elite soldiers from the temple, although they each had human consciousness and reason, they were all unable to defeat the people from the temple, and they collapsed one after another.
In an instant, bones were scattered all over the ground, and the "clang" sound continued to resound, which was the sound of the weapons they held falling to the ground.
Click!
A piece of white bone was scattered on the ground, and when it was about to heal itself, it was crushed to pieces by the temple soldiers.
"It turns out that you already knew our intention today! That's why we laid an ambush here and used some tricks to arouse the thunder from the sky. There is a traitor among us!"
Northern Saint Changyang was retreating steadily, and the spiritual swords in his hands were corroded by the poison. Even though he was the master of a palace with a strong realm and a rich foundation, he was strangely defeated by his maid Yue'er.
Fu Cangxuan, the master of Dongyue Palace, and Jiang Yi, the master of Nanlin Palace, looked at each other.
"traitor?"
The two of them stared into each other's eyes, both suspecting that the other person was that person.
But in fact, only Qi Xi and Ye An knew that the 'traitor' was Jiang Yi. Now, if the two of them are allowed to act, they can also disrupt the Crescent Sect's military morale.
"So what? So what!"
The Red Emperor of the Western Desert shouted angrily: "Now that we have made this decision today, is there any other way besides fighting to the death?"
"So what about the heavenly tribulation? There are not many monks in ancient times who survived the heavenly tribulation. The way of heaven is weak, and the current empress is suffering from the punishment of heaven. What is there to fear?"
"Let me do it!"
The Red Emperor roared, and his muscles swelled. His one-foot-tall body was as heavy as a little giant. Every step he took caused the surrounding earth to tremble a little.
Dongyue Fu Cangxuan and Nanlin Jiang Yi both looked serious. They each nodded and said in unison: "Kill!"
At this moment, a group of skeletons were being defeated by the elites of the temple.
Changyang, the leader of the North Temple, was held back by his maid Yue'er. The remaining three palace masters each exerted their final strength.
"Heaven and Earth Cauldron!"
Dongyue Fu Cangxuan sacrificed a bronze cauldron, which fell upside down from the sky, and a majestic suction force emerged.
The dust on the ground below dispersed, and the bones of the skeleton soldiers were absorbed by the cauldron, while the rest of the temple elites were unable to move forward.
"Zhouhe split!"
But when Jiang Yi reached out his hand and thought, the air around him rippled like water.
Click!
Click!
Waves of cracks emerged in the void, and countless dark and ferocious cracks rushed towards Qi Xi and Ye An. If they were affected by the space cracks, their physical bodies and consciousness would be torn apart by the space cracks.
Her technique related to space is the most mysterious, but she has secretly kept it secret. She also believes that she can deal with it with Qi Xi's ability.
"Roar… !"
Finally, the Red Emperor of the Western Desert roared angrily and turned into a beast, turning into a tiger whose whole body was burning with bright fireworks. Its voice was low and hoarse, and its eyes were ferocious. Just when it was about to rush in and bite, it heard another loud noise from the sky -
boom!
Rolling thunder descended from the sky, and the sea of thunder dropped down like a waterfall.
Boom boom boom boom...!
Bursts of thunder echoed across the sky and the earth, and the ear-piercing sound alone caused some skeletons to be directly shattered. But the wonderful thing is that the elite temple members who are in the vast thunder sea are not affected and live in peace among them.
Qi Xi quietly hugged Ye An into her arms, and covered the latter's ears with her soft white jade hands. Then she gently leaned against the other person's ears and whispered: "Ye An, you have the lowest cultivation level." , and may be hurt by the catastrophe. But don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
The numb and soft voice makes your whole body tingle.
Ye An reluctantly opened his eyes, able to look directly at the bright light of the thunder sea.
