Covering the Sky: The Years I Was the Empress's Strictest Master

This is not a manifestation of the Dao imprint left by a great emperor in the world. He is still in the Dragon Transformation Realm, and the Heavenly Tribulation could not possibly be that outrageous.

However, this humanoid lightning bolt was by no means ordinary; the fragments of Dao principles it possessed restrained its advantages in every way.

However, he was actually quite satisfied.

Only in this way can he refine his skills, make breakthroughs, strengthen his advantages, and make up for his shortcomings.

Boom...

Boom! ! !

The battle was extremely fierce, and the entire Nine Aperture Spirit Lake, which was located nearby, naturally bore the brunt of it.

The valley trembled violently; if it weren't for the ancient restrictions and dense Dao patterns protecting this place, it would probably have collapsed and the earth would have split open long ago.

Wow!

the end.

A blinding light engulfed everything, forcing Chi Xuan by the lake to close her eyes, tears welling up in them under the intense light.

After a long while, the light of the calamity gradually dissipated, the thunder subsided, and Tan Lin descended from the high sky.

His cultivation aura has completely stabilized at the seventh stage of Dragon Transformation!

His clothes were mostly torn in the thunder pool, revealing his strong but not exaggeratedly muscular body.

Upon entering the Dragon Transformation Realm, his body, spine, and even his entire skeleton were cleansed by the tribulation lightning, and his figure seemed to grow several centimeters taller once again.

Baptized by lightning and fire, his physical body was smooth and his skin glowed with a faint golden light.

The faint marks on his chest and arms, remnants of his battle with the humanoid lightning, only added to his wildness and untamed spirit.

At this moment, his black hair danced wildly in the lake breeze, his eyes were deep and his appearance was exceptionally handsome.

Looking at him now, no one would guess that he is only twelve years old after this summer.

rustling... rustling...

The lake breeze was refreshing. After settling down, Tan Lin chose to sit down and meditate, directly digesting what he had gained.

The valley was very quiet.

In the sky, the two calamity clouds completely dispersed, revealing a clear blue night sky with twinkling stars, as if the world-destroying calamity just now was merely an illusion.

The lake was in a mess; the water level had dropped, revealing many jagged rocks.

In the end, Chi Yao used the extraordinary power of the Dao Embryo to dispel the illusion of another Southern Heavenly Gate and the tribulation clouds.

At this moment, she was kneeling on a large piece of gravel. Her white clothes were torn in many places, revealing some of her fair and jade-like skin, but because of the monastic robes, there was not much exposure.

As if sensing that someone was watching, she silently wiped away the blood that was still wet at the corner of her mouth.

Although her aura was weak at the moment, the Daoist charm flowing around her was even purer and more solid, with faint dragon-shaped purple energy emanating from her back.

Having survived this tribulation that was not originally hers, her cultivation at the sixth level of the Dragon Transformation was completely stabilized, and the slight hidden danger in her Dao foundation was also eliminated.

"It's good that my sister is alright..."

On the lakeside, Chi Xuan, who had regained her sight, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he was alright. Then, her beautiful eyes subconsciously swept to the other side.

A figure was seen sitting quietly on a charred blue stone not far from her.

His tall, imposing figure, like the most perfect masterpiece of heaven, now came into her view.

Other water droplets splashed up by the aftershocks of the tribulation lightning during his tribulation slid down his well-defined chest and abdominal muscles.

Tan Lin's black hair was loose, with traces of lake water vapor and lightning on his hair. There were also a few light scorch marks on his face, but they did not diminish his handsome appearance.

That ruggedness seemed to be coated with a layer of poison, deeply attracting Chi Xuan's gaze.

She had only wanted to check on the other person's condition, but she never expected to see this scene, and she was somewhat stunned.

shuh...

By the time she realized what was happening, her cheeks flushed uncontrollably, and her heart pounded like a drum.

The composure emanating from the other person, which had not yet subsided and had become even more refined after the tribulation, combined with that powerful and beautiful body, brought Chi Xuan an unparalleled visual impact.

Her gaze was drawn to Tan Lin as if by a magnet, and she couldn't look away for a moment.

…………

Chapter 121 Chi Yao also saw it

Young people are always curious.

As she gazed at him, a strange flutter of emotion, a mixture of shyness and awe, rose within Chi Xuan.

Followed by.

As she looked into the morning forest, that feeling of weakness seemed to return. She quickly grabbed the blue stone beside her and looked away. Only when something she shouldn't have seen disappeared from her sight did she manage to keep herself from losing control.

On the other side...

At that very moment.

Chi Yao, who had been quietly adjusting her breathing, got up, opened her eyes, and looked around.

Swish!

When she inevitably followed in Chi Xuan's footsteps, her clear and beautiful eyes also fell upon that body that gleamed with a pale golden light in the night.

A barely perceptible blush quickly swept across her beautiful and ethereal face.

She was taken aback at first, then quickly looked away.

But that fleeting glimpse of the scene has been deeply imprinted in my mind.

Having cultivated herself for so long, her heart is as pure as ice, and she is still young. When has she ever seen a man so open and honest?

Not to mention such a handsome young man who has just shown a talent that subtly surpasses hers?

At this moment, even with her pure and desireless nature, which was devoted to Taoism, she could not help but feel some emotional fluctuations.

However, she did not experience what Chi Xuanchen had in the forest, and her state of mind was indeed different from that of her peers, far superior to Chi Xuanchen's. Therefore, she quickly forced herself to calm down.

She then sat down cross-legged again, instantly entering a meditative state, focusing on regulating her breathing and recovering, as if nothing had happened.

However, the faint blush at the base of her ears did not completely fade away for a while.

Splash...

The valley remained silent, with only the gentle lapping of the lake water.

A short while later, Tan Lin slowly opened his eyes, a flash of golden light disappearing from them.

He felt the surging power within his body and the burgeoning seed of fist intent, and slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

The gains from this tribulation far exceeded expectations, and the Nine-Aperture Spirit Lake here deserves immense credit.

The miraculous power of that creation's essence, nourishing the foundation of one's Dao and enriching the secret realm of the human body, was even more astonishing than he had originally imagined.

Thoughts wander.

Tan Lin stood up on the reef.

As if sensing a slight chill, he glanced at Chi Xuan, who was standing not far away with her back to him and her posture slightly stiff, and immediately understood.

He remained calm in response. With a thought, divine patterns surged from his sea of ​​suffering, quickly condensing on his body a black robe similar in style to the one he had worn before.

Although it was merely a manifestation of divine power and not a physical object, it was sufficient to cover the body.

The silk robe that his nominal "aunt" Gu Qingying had woven for him had not been worn for a long time for some reason.

One reason is that the robe was of too high a level and had too strong a defense, so wearing it did not help to temper his physical body.

Another factor was that he once sensed a prying feeling under the [Perspective of All Causes].

This discovery alerted him!

Although that woman might be his lover from a past life, he would not relax his vigilance and caution until his wisdom was fully awakened and the truth was revealed.

Moreover, after leaving the Xiang family, he may have revealed some secrets along the way, such as his relationship with the dragon demon.

There are some matters that it is not advisable for the other party to know too much about, even if they have a close relationship with him. This is a good thing for them.

"Please excuse my poor appearance, my two younger sisters."

Tan Lin's voice rang out from the lake, calm and composed.

It was as if the astonishingly heroic figure who stormed into the Southern Heavenly Gate during his tribulation, and the open and honest person he had just shown, were not him at all.

On the lakeside, Chi Xuan heard this and dared to secretly turn her gaze back. Seeing that Tan Lin was already dressed and transformed by divine power, she breathed a sigh of relief.

They looked at each other, and she tried to remain calm, but her voice still trembled slightly:

"No, it's nothing... I'm so glad you're alright, Brother Tan Lin... That was terrifying..."

She was truly shaken, both by the terror of the heavenly tribulation and by the sight of his magnanimous conduct.

At this moment, Chi Yao also opened her starry eyes and flew to the shore.

Nourished by the essence of creation in the lake, she calmed her breathing for a moment, and her complexion was no longer as pale as before, and the blush at the base of her ears had long since faded.

At this moment, she had regained her usual elegant appearance, but her gaze flickered almost imperceptibly when it met Tan Lin's.

Her voice was clear and melodious as she nodded her congratulations.

"Congratulations on your great progress in cultivation, Brother."

After speaking, she paused, then added:

"The heavenly tribulation just now was quite unusual; thank you, brother, for sharing some of the burden."

She knew that if Tan Lin hadn't stormed into the gate in such a domineering manner at the last moment, causing the tribulation clouds to dissipate first, she might not have been able to overcome the tribulation so "easily".

Tan Lin smiled faintly:

"Sister Chi Yao is exceptionally talented. Even without me, she would have easily survived this ordeal..."

As he spoke, he glanced at Chi Yao and could sense that although her aura fluctuated slightly, her foundation had become solid again, which could be considered a blessing in disguise.

Upon hearing this, Chi Yao pursed her lips, hesitating whether to say anything more.

However, at that moment, the barrier at the entrance of the valley was activated, and several powerful auras rapidly approached.

"Yao'er, Xuan'er, are you alright?"

Qin Suyao's voice, tinged with worry, drifted from afar.

Just now, the residual energy of the heavenly tribulation above completely dissipated, allowing the high-ranking members of the clan outside the valley to open the barrier and enter in single file.

Whoosh!

whoosh...

A dozen or so people flew over.

Their gazes immediately fell on the three figures standing opposite each other on the lakeside.

Chi Yao's white robes were stained with blood, and although her aura was weak, her Daoist essence was solid. She had clearly successfully transcended the tribulation, and her cultivation of the sixth transformation of the dragon astonished everyone.

Chi Xuan's pretty face flushed slightly as she stood on the shore, her eyes still somewhat unfocused.

The immortal golden body from the Xiang family, dressed in newly formed black robes, stood tall and straight, with flowing black hair and a calm expression.

The golden light that occasionally flickered in his eyes as they opened and closed, along with the profound and imposing aura emanating from him, sent a shiver down the spines of several Chi family elders who were seeing him up close for the first time!

But what made their pupils constrict even more was...

They could clearly sense that the aura of the Dragon Transformation Realm emanating from Tan Lin was actually...

Seven Transformations of the Dragon!!

In a single day, he broke through seven levels from the peak of the Four Extremes and entered the seventh level of the Dragon Transformation Realm!

Judging from the vigor of his blood and energy and the solidity of his foundation, it is simply unbelievable.

With the other party's achievements before them, they no longer seemed to find Chi Yao's sixth transformation of the dragon cultivation as as as as before.

"Yes, yes, yes! Lin'er, that's great!"

Chi Tianfeng stepped forward, patted Tan Lin's shoulder forcefully, and laughed heartily.

As for his daughter, he merely glanced at her to make sure she was alright, then left her to be cared for by his wife, Qin Suyao.
