I saved the entire sect by playing idly by letting things fall apart.

After several consecutive lightning tribulations, even Ye Qiao, who was capable of absorbing them, could not withstand them. She used her Qingfeng energy to run, and the heavenly lightning resolutely chased after her.

Ye Qiao: "..." Damn it.

She knew it. The lightning was aimed at her.

Ye Qinghan was dumbfounded. He had never seen the heavenly lightning strike someone outside the tribulation instead of someone undergoing tribulation. The young man immediately took the initiative to block it for her without hesitation.

This was his tribulation of lightning. Although something seemed to have gone wrong along the way, there was no reason for Ye Qiao to be struck alone.

Ye Qiao turned around, touched: "Thank you."

Thus, the scene gradually evolved into the two taking turns being hit, and Ye Qinghan's attempt to share the blows was of no use.

The heavenly lightning mainly struck Ye Qiao, striking her with sparks and lightning along the way. The speed at which her spiritual root absorbed the lightning couldn't keep up with the speed at which it struck.

The players waiting outside asked, puzzled, "What happened inside?"

Why would the lightning strike one side and then the other?

Something's not right.

"I don't know." Chu Xingzhi scratched his head. Could it be that his senior brother had cultivated an avatar? And could even teleport?

Under the continuous lightning tribulations, no scene could be seen at all, and no one knew what was happening to the people inside.

The elder's expression changed several times as he watched the increasingly fierce lightning tribulation: "Ye Qiao from Changming Sect is still inside."

He'll get struck by lightning, won't he?

He's a genius who excels in all three areas of cultivation.

The elder of the Azure Water Sect said with a grave expression, "If she stays far away, she will at most be affected." At worst, Ye Qiao has a little brat with his own domain, so there shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Their concern should still be for Ye Qinghan, whether he can withstand the tribulation under such lightning.

however.

Ye Qinghan, who was the source of everyone's worry, gradually became an outsider after initially being able to help Ye Qiao share some of the pressure. When he stood next to Ye Qiao, even the heavenly lightning ignored him and struck Ye Qiao directly.

Ye Qinghan's expression was somewhat numb. He was already indifferent, but now he looked like a stone statue.

This is clearly a story about two people, so in the end, I'm the one who doesn't deserve to have a name?

The tribulation lasted for three days before it ended. Many people outside the arena watched with concern, feeling both worried and relieved. The greater the tribulation, the higher Ye Qinghan's talent.

After three days and three nights of lightning tribulation, Ye Qiao was almost completely charred. He collapsed to the ground, and it seemed as if a ghost was spitting out of his mouth.

Ye Qinghan hesitated for a moment: "...Are you... alright?"

He had never faced such a simple tribulation of lightning before.

It's still a tribulation of lightning at the Nascent Soul stage.

His ability to survive the tribulation unscathed was neither due to his own efforts nor because of his great strength.

It was because the Nascent Soul stage lightning tribulation had basically all fallen on Ye Qiao alone.

outrageous.

Ye Qiao stubbornly raised one finger, slowly exhaling a puff of black smoke after being struck: "It's alright."

After saying that, the girl's voice was ethereal, and she laughed twice: "Ha, ha, ha, ha."

She could feel that her spiritual root had grown a lot.

"……"Forehead.

Ye Qinghan felt that she didn't seem like a good person.

It's almost as if he's been struck by lightning and gone insane.

-

The thunder roared and struck for three whole days. Logically speaking, Ye Qinghan inside should have been struck dead long ago. Even if he was strong, it would be difficult for him to withstand it for so long. They were all prepared to rush in and rescue him.

When the results came out, it was discovered that the boy was at most a bit covered in dust, but surprisingly, he wasn't completely smashed.

Ye Qiao slowly walked out, her clothes torn to shreds by lightning. This personal protective clothing was supposed to be impervious to water and fire, but it turned out it didn't protect against being struck by lightning.

The girl walked out listlessly, looking like a beggar.

Seeing that both children were unharmed, the elders, finally relieved, began to focus on Ye Qinghan and slowly sighed, "This child's future is limitless."

Such a fierce tribulation lightning has not appeared in the cultivation world for a long time.

Most importantly, he was surprisingly relaxed after overcoming the tribulation.

really.

The way of the sword should be the best!

As soon as Ye Qinghan came out, he was surrounded by a group of people who came to congratulate him. Ye Qiao, who had been pushed to the side, was also pulled away by her senior brothers.

The elder said in a deep voice, "Ye Qiao?"

correct.

Everyone was busy congratulating Ye Qinghan and forgot about Ye Qiao.

The elder of the Sword Inquiry Sect pointed at her and angrily rebuked, "How dare you brazenly barge in! With such a rebellious nature, do you even have any respect for us elders?"

Ye Qiao sincerely apologized: "I'm sorry."

The other party coldly flicked his sleeve, "Changming Sect, points deducted."

"Hurry up and coin it!" Mu Chongxi wasn't intimidated by him. Since they were in first place now, he grabbed Ye Qiao and pulled her away, saying, "Since there's nothing else, let's leave."

Xue Yu could only quickly reassure the elders of the Sword Inquiry Sect. The young man's voice was gentle and his tone humble: "I'm sorry, elders. They haven't been quite right in the head lately. I'll go check on them."

Elder of the Sword Inquiry Sect: "..." You're not exactly normal either.

Seeing the Changming Sect members flee, Ye Qinghan opened his mouth, instinctively wanting to call out to Ye Qiao, but realizing there were too many people around, he pursed his lips and had to give up the idea.

Ye Qinghan actually wanted to ask the other person in person what had happened.

As the first disciple to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, Ye Qinghan had to deal with those who came to befriend him while simultaneously consolidating his own cultivation level.

In contrast, the Changming Sect's courtyard appeared very peaceful.

"How is it? How many realms do you think you can break through?" Xue Yu handed her the pills he had prepared in advance. He was in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, and the pills he made had an immediate effect on Ye Qiao's Foundation Establishment realm, quickly consolidating her realm without taking any time.

Ye Qiao: "I feel like throwing up."

The dantian felt heavy, and spiritual energy formed a vortex that drilled into it. In the blink of an eye, the surrounding spiritual energy surged into the Changming Sect courtyard.

"Damn it!" Mu Chongxi jumped up. "Everyone sit down and meditate! Hurry up and absorb the spiritual energy!"

If he continues to absorb this, won't he explode and die?

The group quickly sat down and channeled their spiritual energy into their respective dantian. The reduction in spiritual energy made Ye Qiao feel a little better. She covered her forehead and said, "Nobody told me about these symptoms."

"You didn't have a Heavenly Spiritual Root before either." Mingxuan slumped to the ground, the spiritual energy automatically flowing into their courtyard without them even needing to gather, a rather pleasant feeling. "But now that you know, be careful."

Ye Qinghan broke through two realms in a short period of time, making him the undisputed number one among the younger generation of sword cultivators. All the other elders rushed to offer their congratulations.

This means that no one is watching them anymore.

Mu Chongxi became interested. "Come on."

"Junior sister, let's have a fight."

Ye Qiao followed him out. After taking Xue Yu's pills, her discomfort was greatly relieved. She had been suppressing her cultivation level for too long and needed a chance to fight to relieve the pressure.

The two stood outside the courtyard, and Mu Chongxi pressed his cultivation level down to match hers.

With the same starting stance and the same sword moves, two gusts of wind swept through, instantly leveling the surrounding trees. No one was more familiar with their sect's sword techniques than the two of them; their dodging frequency and sword moves were exactly the same.

Anyway, it's just an opportunity for Ye Qiao to release her restless spiritual energy. There's no need to determine a winner or loser. The two of them can just use whatever sword techniques they want.

Sand and stones flew, spiritual energy collided, and aftershocks rippled outwards, followed by the sound of something breaking.

With a "bang".

The world is quiet.

Mingxuan waved his hand to sweep away the dust, shielded his head with his hand, and looked up slightly.

A profound conclusion:

"It collapsed."

What collapsed?

The two sword cultivators, who were happily practicing their sword-smashing techniques, came to their senses and discovered that the central pillar in the courtyard had broken.

"Ye Qiao!!"

"Mu Chongxi!!"

"Xue Yu!"

Everyone whose name was called shuddered.

Elder Zhao arrived late, but he did.

A familiar scene, a familiar setting, except that the last time was when I burned down the library with Mingxuan.

Ye Qiao: "..." Why do they always get caught red-handed every time they do something bad?

"Are you all crazy?" Elder Zhao rushed over in a panic.

He and Qin Fanfan were also watching the genius of the Sword Inquiry Sect. Ye Qinghan broke through two realms in one day and became a Nascent Soul at the age of eighteen, which can be described as a young man achieving great success.

As a result, I wasn't watching these brats closely enough, and the yard was destroyed?!

Xue Yu smiled slightly, his tone gentle, and skillfully painted a rosy picture for Elder Zhao, "Once I return to the Xue family, I will have money, and I will definitely subsidize the sect then."

"Shut up." Elder Zhao was no longer buying his act. "Get out of here and go to the forbidden area."

Mingxuan tried to stop him: "Elder, wait for me to return to the Ming family..."

"You get out too."

Mu Chongxi: "Elder..."

"You three, get out of here and go to the forbidden area."

Zhou Xingyun, who had originally planned to try to persuade them as well, dared not say a word upon seeing this.

He didn't want to go to the forbidden area.

Seeing Elder Zhao's furious outburst, Ye Qiao took a deep breath: "Don't rush, we'll talk about the forbidden area later."

"How about," she said calmly, clutching her throbbing chest, "you wait for me to break through to a higher realm first?"

"..."

Elder Zhao, who was furious just a moment ago, was now all smiles: "Hmm? Xiao Qiao, what are you saying?"

"A broken mirror?" he said. "Broken, broken, broken... Is it finally going to break?"

Mingxuan: "Is the forbidden area still closed?"

Elder Zhao's anger subsided. "I won't close it. You four go and repair the courtyard. Don't disturb your junior sister's breakthrough."

The four: Hmm?

Why?

It was clearly Mu Chongxi and Ye Qiao who destroyed the courtyard!

Ye Qiao's cultivation level had been suppressed. After being cleansed by the lightning tribulation, her Heavenly Spiritual Root grew at a visible speed. After no longer needing to suppress her cultivation level, she sat in meditation on the spot. After a short while, the first aura of breaking through her cultivation level was released.

Elder Zhao glanced at it and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Ever since he learned that the sect had gained a genius, he had been worried about what would happen if he couldn't raise him properly. Ye Qiao hadn't broken through for so long, and he was really afraid that he would ruin him.

Now that it seems there isn't, he is somewhat relieved.

Just as I was about to call Ye Qiao up to have a chat with her, the aura of a second breakthrough came.

Like Ye Qinghan, he broke through two realms in succession.

Suddenly, news of two breakthroughs came from the Changming Sect. The crowd that had been watching Ye Qinghan and offering their congratulations exchanged glances in bewilderment.

"Who broke the mirror?"

That's awesome.
