physical body Become an advanced tasker"The ripples continued to ask.Generally speaking, upgrading to an advanced tasker is a must, of course, this depends on the tasker's task completion rate.For exa...That evening, after adjusting her state to its best, Lian Yi went to the place where Ziyun Palace sealed the evil artifacts. Looking at the seal that had been reinforced many times, Lian Yi felt that she arrived just in time, because based on the current situation, it wouldn't be long before the seal lost its effect.
With Zǐ Dài and the four others at the initial stage of foundation establishment, they were incapable of resealing it.
Please help the four of you outside to protect me.
Ripples bowed.
"Thank you, Lu Yao Fairy!"
The four bowed together and then exited the "treasure chamber" where the evil artifact was sealed.
"Senior Brother, I have already withdrawn the disciples to the outer perimeter."
"Although our cultivation is limited, if Daoist Luyao truly encountered trouble, we should also do our best to help."
Zi Jiang stroked his beard and said in a deep voice.
Yes, Senior Brother!
The other three all bowed their hands in agreement.
The ripples had already laid down an isolating formation around the "Vault of Relics" at the fastest speed possible. This was to prevent the evil energy from overflowing once the seal was broken. This time, she used spiritual marrow and relics together to set up the formation, which could maximize the control over the evil energy emitted by the cursed weapon.
After doing all that, she sat down directly on the ground, each hand holding two pieces of spirit marrow. She quickly circulated her cultivation technique, trying to break through the barrier of the foundation building stage. All this was second nature to her, so it didn't take long.
Half an hour later, the spiritual marrow in her hand dimmed, and ripples, empowered by that force, broke through the barrier in one fell swoop. Her dantian and sea of consciousness expanded rapidly, and the golden elixir within her dantian gradually congealed.
At this moment, she urgently needed a massive amount of spiritual energy. She waved her hand and took out more spirit marrow from the space, assisting her in condensing the golden elixir.
At the same time, above the Repository of Artifacts, black clouds churned and rolled, forming a gigantic funnel-shaped vortex. Within the clouds, there were flashes of lightning and roars of thunder, strangely limited only to the area above the Repository of Artifacts.
She really called down a lightning strike!
Zi Dai's eyes were filled with surprise, amazement, and envy.
The four figures in their flowing robes rustled like leaves in the wind, yet none of them moved. They stood rooted to the spot, feeling the immense pressure emanating from Heaven's Dao. Even though it felt stifling, they reveled in it.
The purple lightning in the sky swirled down toward the center of the vortex, striking the ripples and the sealing formation with pinpoint accuracy.
The ripples allowed the first bolt of tribulation lightning to strike her, followed by the second and third. She tried her best to absorb the tribulation lightning to temper her body. As for the lightning power she couldn't fully absorb, she relied on the formation to channel it into the sealing formation in the hidden artifact hall.
After the first wave of nine thunder tribulations fell, the seal of the Treasure Hall shattered. A thick evil aura emerged from the courtyard, followed by a flash of black light. Something shot straight towards the outer courtyard.
The fractured seal seemed to be a signal, and the relic within the rippling formation seemed to sense the presence of the evil artifact. The formation activated on its own, blocking the fleeing evil artifact.
At the same time, the originally still-rolling tribulation thunder seemed to sense the evil energy. The vortex clouds in the sky pressed down a few more points, and then the tribulation thunder fell one after another, some hitting Lian Ri, and some hitting that evil weapon.
Neither ripples nor artifacts could escape, the former was for condensing the golden elixir, and the latter was the first target of the tribulation thunder. For a moment, the entire treasure hall became a purple sea of lightning.
The ripples were all caught in the pit, while that evil artifact was having a hard time. It was like a ball being kicked around by bolts of purple lightning, its outer layer of black evil energy gradually thinning. Along with the evil artifact, the black gas it emitted was also being forcefully purified by the relic, causing quite a commotion in the courtyard for a while.
Finally, when the third wave of tribulation lightning struck, the evil artifact revealed its true form. It was a blade about the length of a human palm, likely part of an evil artifact dagger. The blade had two notches, and the two fragments collected by Ripple could perfectly fill them in.
The cursed weapon, now without support and unable to escape, was directly targeted by the blade as the Ripple Golden Elixir neared completion. The blade seemed to want to forcefully take possession of Ripple's dantian, but before it could even reach her, a loud "clang" echoed as the Lei Yao Sword smashed it away, embedding it into the ground. Purple lightning flowers swirled around its tip, instantly extinguishing any further movement.
Ripple only glanced and then retracted her attention. Her natal sword came with a thunder attribute, which happened to be the nemesis of that evil artifact. Furthermore, the evil energy wanted to form a contract with her unilaterally, naturally angering Lei Yao, so it was thoroughly beaten.
The tribulation ended successfully, and from the vortex fell a beam of purple light that struck Lian Ri's body. Then, she felt her cultivation base in the Golden Core Stage rapidly solidify, and nine golden patterns appeared on her Golden Core, proving that she had formed a superior-grade Golden Core.
After the wind died down and the clouds dispersed, the air above the treasure hall returned to its tranquility, with a crescent moon hanging high in the sky.
Ripple opened her eyes, a bright light flashed in her pupils, and then she jumped out of the deep pit. She plunged the ground with her sword, directly sealing the blade of the demonic weapon that had lost its power into the spirit essence box, and then put it away in space.
At this time, the faint evil aura within the Treasure Hall had almost been cleansed by the monk's relic. Lian Ri looked at her tattered robes and could only take out a white robe with dark patterns from space. It was a flowing white robe prepared for her by the Elysian Palace before. She would use it as a temporary substitute.
After taking care of herself, she didn't rush to leave the formation. She still sat cross-legged on the ground, meditating to repair the dark lines in her meridians. This cultivation lasted all night until the sun rose from the horizon and ripples opened her eyes.
At this point, she had fully recovered to her peak state. With a wave of her hand, she retracted the Buddhist relics used for the formation, then opened the array and walked out.
"Lu Yao senior, congratulations on your successful promotion!"
The four who had been waiting outside also came forward to offer their congratulations.
Four people watched as the ripples' aura grew increasingly introspective, it would be a lie to say they weren't envious.
"Thank you all for your protection. I've retrieved that half of the cursed artifact from the Coffer Room, and the crisis at Ziyun Heavenly City has been averted. Now I need to rush to the capital as soon as possible. What are your plans"
Even ripples don't beat around the bush, asking very directly.
“Lu Yao Xianzi, the four of us discussed this yesterday. Zi Dai, you and I will set off together, while the other two will remain at Zi Yun Palace.”
"Okay, I'll give you three days to prepare. During this time, I will pass on the knowledge of talismans and formations to you."
Thank you, Lu Yao Fairy!
The four people immediately bowed and thanked him.
Ripple returned to the courtyard of her rented home and called out for Xiaohui. The little fellow scrambled out of bed in his room and hopped all the way to Ripple's face.
Ripple held Little Grey in the palm of her hand, smiling and saying:
"Were you scared by the thunder yesterday"
Little Grey understood the ripples' words. She nodded her little head and then made a gesture of hugging her ears and shrinking into herself, trembling slightly. This showed that she had stayed curled up under the covers all night.
The ripples were amused, then wrote a small note and put it in a piece of bamboo flute, asking Xiao Hui to take it back to Liang Chen. She ordered the maidservants and guards to set off for the capital immediately, while she had no intention of traveling with them.ight. Now that he is asleep, it's a good thing."Wang Yaozu said softly."Yohi, let's go to the study and talk."With the help of her eldest daughter, Wu stood up and ordered.Yes, Mother!A single person...
