Chapter 273 Advanced (Part 2)
"Could this be the strange phenomenon in the world caused by the advanced level?" Xu Qingwan asked in shock.
Tangning suddenly realized that he had read in books that some monsters were too powerful and would often cause strange phenomena in the world when they advanced.
The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is excess damage.
Some rare monsters with strong physiques and bloodlines will cause strange phenomena in heaven and earth when they cross great realms, causing divine punishment to come.
The most widely circulated theory about this phenomenon in the spiritual world is that because their power destroyed the balance among all things, heaven punished them to prevent them from dominating the world.
This statement is too mysterious and vague. Although it is widely spread, it is difficult to convince the public.
A more reliable theory is that every time they advance and cross a great realm, the power of their own bloodline will gradually awaken. At the moment of awakening, this bloodline power is not effectively suppressed, causing the surrounding yin and yang energy to become unbalanced. The balance is broken, so strange phenomena occur in the heaven and earth.
Therefore, heaven's punishment came to strike at the culprit who destroyed the balance of yin and yang. This is a natural self-protection mechanism between heaven and earth.
Tangning had only seen this kind of vision of heaven and earth once.
Even on the day when Zhuang Xinqian was transformed from his mortal body, there was also the turmoil of wind and thunder.
But it was just loud thunder and small raindrops. Although the vision came true, the punishment from heaven did not come.
But today, heaven's punishment is really coming to strike, trying to destroy the culprit who caused the imbalance of yin and yang in the world.
Several feet of lightning struck the little white snake, and only white smoke floated up. This situation seemed to anger the Emperor of Heaven.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten thunderbolts condensed in mid-air and struck the little white snake, but still failed to hurt it at all.
After the little white snake advanced this time, its physical strength has reached a very terrifying level. The white scales on its body are comparable to the rocks of Taiyue, and are extremely tough.
If an ordinary foundation-building monk didn't take any defensive measures, he would have been killed by this lightning strike.
This is the advantage of the monster beast. For a powerful monster beast, its body is the strongest weapon, stronger than any magical weapon of the same level, and capable of both offense and defense.
Qin Tianjiao of the Shuiyun Sect is a living example. He has the blood of the Qingjiao royal family. He can hardly defeat his opponents with the strength of his body alone. It is said that he never uses any spiritual weapons to fight against the enemy. With a pair of flesh palms, ordinary spiritual weapons can be used against him. What lies ahead is like broken bricks and tiles.
After he transforms into a dragon, his body and any defensive weapons will be tougher, and his claws and any offensive weapons will be sharper.
What use would such a vicious person have for a spiritual weapon?
More than ten lightning bolts struck the little white snake, turning it into nothingness, but the power of heavenly punishment was obviously more than that. Before anyone could take a breath, more thunder and lightning condensed in the air.
Not long after, the world around the little white snake was submerged in a sea of thunder and lightning.
Silver dragons danced in the sky, and the silver-white light illuminated the dim sky and earth like daylight.
The rumbling sound shook the heaven and the earth.
At this moment, the area three hundred feet around the Little White Snake was dark, with silvery white light shining on the sky and the earth, but the sky was still clear three hundred feet away.
Such phenomena naturally attracted the attention of many people. The disciples at the intelligence station left the basement room one after another and came out of the cave. They were all shocked by these phenomena.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, take everyone to the prepared hiding place. You cannot stay here for long," Tang Ning said.
This kind of vision will definitely attract a lot of people's attention. He just prays that it is best not to have a golden elixir monk nearby, otherwise it will be difficult. Needless to say, as long as he is not a fool, he will definitely know that the little white snake is definitely not the one who sees this kind of vision. Ordinary spiritual beast.
It will inevitably arouse people's covetousness. If the Golden elixir cultivator ignores his identity and takes it by force, he will have no choice.
Xu Qingwan looked at the silver-white ocean of thunder and lightning, and was shocked beyond words. This was the first time she had seen a vision of heavenly punishment. Its power was far beyond her imagination. The terrifying and destructive aura contained in that vast ocean of thunder and lightning, even if The hundreds of feet apart made her heart tremble unconsciously.
What kind of level of spiritual beast is this? It has only reached the second level, but it actually caused such a big commotion, and even Heavenly Punishment appeared.
After hearing Tangning's words, she came back to her senses and quickly responded, "Okay."
Xu Qingwan transformed into a escaping light, arrived in front of everyone, and led them eastward.
The thunder and lightning attack in mid-air became more and more fierce. The area dozens of feet around the little white snake was covered in silvery white, and its body was completely submerged by lightning.
Tang Ning put on Qian Yizong clothes and showed his identity. If a Jindan monk came here, his status as a Qian Yizong disciple would make the other party a little wary.
As long as the other party is not a demon sect cultivator, whether they are casual cultivators, members of aristocratic families or chambers of commerce, they are still somewhat wary of the Qianyi sect. After all, this is the sect's sphere of influence.
The figure of the little white snake was submerged in the silvery white thunder and lightning. Tangning was very anxious. She was determined to help it resist, but she was afraid of causing serious consequences that would be irreparable.
He had only seen such visions of heavenly punishment in books and had never encountered it before. If he helped Little White Snake resist a more powerful heavenly punishment, he would be in trouble.
And this natural punishment appears when it advances, it may be an indispensable process.
Just like the inner demon illusion of a monk when he is building a foundation, if he is forcibly interrupted, the consequences will be disastrous. In the least case, the foundation construction will fail, and in the worst case, he will die suddenly.
But seeing it being submerged by the thunder, Tang Ning was worried that it wouldn't be able to withstand the power of the thunder. When she was in a dilemma, two escaping lights shot out from the far south.
Tangning flashed her light and stepped forward to intercept them. The three of them bumped into each other head-on: "Two fellow Taoists, please stay."
The two people stopped and revealed their figures. One of them had a fair complexion, dressed as a Confucian scholar, and was in the middle stage of foundation building.
One person has slender eyes, a long beard, a leopard head and ape arms, and is in the early stages of foundation building.
"Why are fellow Taoists blocking our way?" the leopard-headed man asked.
Tang Ning said: "I wonder if you two are passing by here, or are you here for this vision?"
The Confucian man asked: "So what if I'm passing by? What if I came here for this vision?"
"If you are passing by, I don't dare to block your way. If you are here for this vision, I dare to ask you to wait for a moment."
"What does Fellow Taoist mean by this? Could this vision have something to do with Fellow Daoist?"
"That's right, this is a strange phenomenon caused by my uncle's spiritual beast's advancement. It's not a treasure from heaven or earth." Tangning lied, using a tiger skin as a banner, and used the name of a golden elixir monk. , so that the two of them would have some scruples.
"Oh?" The Confucian man was startled and looked at each other with the leopard-headed man. Both of them had a look of surprise on their faces. The advancement of the spiritual beast actually caused a strange phenomenon in the world and gave birth to a divine punishment. It must be an extremely powerful and rare spirit. A beast.
"Looking at the way fellow Taoist is dressed, I wonder if he is a disciple of the Qianyi Sect?"
"That's right, I'll be working with Tang Ning from the Yizong Intelligence Department."
"Since this spiritual beast belongs to Senior Guizong, I wonder if Senior Guizong is here?"
"Because I need to use this spiritual beast to perform my mission, I borrowed it from my uncle. I didn't expect it to advance at this time." Tang Ning had to continue lying, otherwise it would be difficult to justify her story.
Hearing his words, the two of them looked suspicious. Spiritual beasts that can cause strange phenomena and heavenly punishment are so rare. How could they be handed over to others so easily?
The Confucian scholar said: "I have heard about the divine punishment caused by the advancement of spiritual beasts for a long time, but I never thought that I would be able to witness such a grand scene here today. Now that we have encountered such a strange thing, it is a blessing for the two of us. We want to
If you take a closer look, fellow Taoist fellows won’t stop you!”
Tangning frowned and remained silent.
"Fellow Taoist, there is no need to worry. We are both descendants of the Wang family. This is Wang Zhongwen, and this is Wang Xuliang, my brother-in-law. We were passing by here and saw this strange phenomenon, so we came here to have a look. We have no other intention."
Tangning nodded: "Okay! But at the critical moment of this spiritual beast's advancement, I hope you two will not interfere."
Since he is a descendant of the Wang family, he feels more at ease. Such monks who have a family and a career generally will not enmity with others for no reason or do irrational things.
And he has no reason to prevent others from taking a closer look, unless he has the strength to crush the opponent, or directly sacrifice his life.
The three of them came closer. Tangning was ten feet away from them, secretly wary of them, ready to take action at any time if they had any evil intentions.
The spiritual beast is truly advancing. Wang Zhongwen looked intently and saw a white figure faintly resisting the thunder in the sky. He couldn't help but be shocked. He originally thought that this Qianyi Sect disciple was deceiving with big words, but he didn't expect it.
It's actually true.
The land of Xingang is short of resources and products are barren. Very few people raise spiritual beasts, let alone such rare spiritual beasts.
The two of them looked at each other and felt incredulous that this kind of spiritual beast that only existed in rumors in books actually appeared in Xingang.
Wang Zhongwen said: "I wonder which senior of your sect owns this spiritual beast?"
Tang Ning replied: "This is the spiritual beast of Master Luo Qingshui of our sect's Xuande Hall."
Wang Zhongwen nodded and said nothing.
Silver dragons flew in mid-air, becoming more and more violent, overwhelming thunder and lightning, each one dozens of feet thick, connected to the sky and the earth, like the roar of God, wanting to destroy the heaven and the earth.
The little white snake in the center of the thundering ocean was covered in blood and flesh, and its scales were broken layer by layer. It looked like it couldn't hold up.
When Tang Ning saw this situation, she became very anxious and wanted to help it resist the punishment of heaven, but was afraid of ruining its path to advancement. While she was planning a plan, the situation in the center of the Thunder Sea had changed.
I saw the little white snake opening its mouth and spitting out a ball of gray gas to wrap itself around. The thunder and lightning in the sky were like mud sinking into the sea in the gray fog, without causing a single ripple.
The thunder and lightning that filled the sky with a radius of dozens of feet seemed to be absorbed, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The gray gas surged and gradually grew to a size of several feet. Thunder arcs flashed in it, and gray mist broke out from time to time. The two lasted for a long time, and finally the lightning was completely swallowed by the gray gas.
The little white snake opened its mouth and inhaled, and the gray mist shrank suddenly at a speed visible to the naked eye and returned to its body. In an instant, the strong wind stopped, the dark clouds dispersed, the sky became white, and all the strange phenomena disappeared, leaving only charred wood on the ground.
Most of the scales on the little white snake's body were broken into pieces and dripping with blood. It seemed that it had suffered a lot of injuries.
Tangning flashed her light and came to its side.
After the advancement, the little white snake has changed a lot. It is no longer a little thing in his hands, but now it can be said to be majestic.
