ripples of news had reached Mark's village. As he walked, people greeted him and inquired about whether his beast companion had been recovered. It was clear that everyone knew about Mark's dire situa...The great ancestor of the Meng family was no ignorant novice. He chose to dodge at the first moment, as his karmic obstacles were considerable. This avoidance cost him a breath, and then the low-ranking descendants of the Meng family were struck by the thunder tribulation, reduced to ashes without even a cry.
The Patriarch of the Meng family temporarily withdrew from the range of the tribulation thunder. Watching the ripples that remained motionless even after being struck by lightning, he directly summoned his natal sword and prepared to kill the ripples, so that the tribulation thunder would naturally disappear.
Ripple's lips curled into a cold smile. To compare sword speeds with her She wasn't flattering herself; the opponent's cultivation, which looked like it was built up with pills and spirit stones, was far inferior to hers.
At this time, the tribulation thunder of the Nascent Soul stage was already brewing in the sky. The moment Ripples grasped the Lei Yao Sword, it fell and was completely absorbed into the sword body by the Lei Yao Sword.
At the same time, Mengjia cultivators who hadn't managed to escape were once again struck, with more being turned to ashes.
"Ancestor! Help me!!!"
A heart-wrenching cry for help reached the ears of Ancestor Meng, and Lian Yi could hear it clearly too, yet she refused to let these people leave.
"Listen well, you little ones. As long as you can pass through this deity's crimson lotus inferno, you will be able to leave the Meng family. If you fail, you will perish along with the Meng family."
The Meng family members, who were hiding like headless flies below, rushed straight into the red lotus karmic fire encircling their entire home when they heard the ripples carrying spiritual energy enter their ears.
"Oh!"
Screams echoed continuously, and the moment the Meng family stepped into the fire, they turned to ashes. The remaining members of the Meng family were terrified and dared not try again!
You dare, wretch!!!
The head of the Meng family was truly driven mad with anger. He swung his sword in retaliation, aiming straight for Lian Yi's head.
The ripples on his wrist swirled as he effortlessly deflected the opponent's attack.
Both sides were too powerful. Although the sword techniques were neutralized, the afterwaves of the sword light destroyed half of the Meng family's land.
Just at this moment, the tribulation thunder of the distraction stage also fell. At this time, only the high-level cultivators were still struggling to support the Meng family. The tribulation thunder of the distraction stage made them suffer greatly, and a part of the high-level cultivators perished.
Actually, Lian Ri wasn't doing well either. After all, she was the main one undergoing the tribulation. The more people within her tribulation range, the more intense the thunderbolts would be, and she bore just as much burden as these people. However, at this crucial moment, she definitely wouldn't show any weakness; otherwise, how could she single-handedly eradicate the Meng family
The patriarch of the Meng family was about to go insane at this point. He thought the woman in front of him was a lunatic, as she clearly intended to trade her life for their entire Meng family.
Fellow Daoists, please lend me your hand to subdue this woman. The Meng family will surely show its gratitude!
The head of the Meng family, helpless, could only turn to those fellow cultivators who were watching from the perimeter for help.
Liàn Yī, having just digested the tribulation thunder from the distraction period, scoffed at Patriarch Mèng's words:
"The Meng family has shielded the heavens, stealing the luck and resources of the lower realm, causing it to become a mortal world. You all come from the same realm, you must have heard of this. If you insist on helping this thief, be prepared to face the backlash of heaven! This deity wants to see how you will survive the tribulation thunder when the time comes!"
The ripples of his words echoed through the air, ultimately being drowned out by the tribulation thunder of the Void Refining stage. However, the effect was undeniable.
Even the high-ranking experts watching weren't fools. It was clear that the Meng family had done something wrong to the other party, and now they were seeking revenge, even at the cost of their own lives.
The tribulation thunder has never stopped, proving that the other party's cultivation level is not just at its current stage. However, because the Meng family deliberately concealed the Heavenly Dao, they were unable to experience the baptism of the tribulation. Now that they have rushed up, besides seeking revenge, it is also to obtain the recognition of the Heavenly Dao.
Ladies and gentlemen,
At the moment the ripples were interrupted, the Patriarch of the Meng family immediately spoke up, wanting to persuade others to take action. Unfortunately, his words were cut off by the subsequent Nascent Soul tribulation thunder.
After this thunderous calamity, the Meng family was practically wiped out. Only the Meng family's Patriarch remained standing.
The ominous clouds in the sky still hadn't dispersed, but this time they weren't falling in one go. It seemed like they were brewing a big attack.
The ripples subsided, calming the surging qi and blood. She gazed at the Meng family ancestor charging upwards, shooting out her Lei Yao sword. She needed to seize the time to repair her meridians; a tribulation thunder of the Great Ascension stage would descend soon, and she had no time to deal with this fool.
Leiyuan Jian had long since given birth to its sword spirit, and coupled with the previous fallen tribulation lightning, Leiyuan also seized the opportunity to absorb a considerable amount of tribulation lightning, forging his own sword body. Now, when it collided with the ancestor Meng's sword, it was even more dazzling with lightning flashes, making it impossible for the other party to approach its master.
Two swords clashed for dozens of moves, the ground below had already become ruins. In the next instant, the Lei Yao Sword returned to Lian Yi's hand, and a tribulation thunder from the Great Ascension period descended.
This time, the Patriarch of the Meng family ran even faster. Unfortunately, Lian Yi didn't intend to let him go. The Soul-Stealing Silk had already wrapped around his waist and instantly pulled him into the Heavenly Tribulation range.
In an instant, the tribulation lightning locked onto Patriarch Meng. The waterfall-like tribulation thunder struck instantly, causing ripples of energy to surge through his body, his blood boiling over. His skin had already turned charcoal black, and he felt this time was truly precarious, unsure if he could survive it.
"Ripples, I finally got in touch with you!"
The sound of the stone mill echoed in ripples beside her ear, and in the next instant it became a ghostly shriek:
"What are you doing Are you preparing to commit suicide"
"Nonsense, I don't want to die until the mission is complete!"
Liàn Yī's heart pounded as she concentrated, her hands moving to pull the remaining half of Ling Suǐ from the spatial dimension. She then leaned against it, starting to frantically absorb the spiritual energy within it to repair her shattered meridians and body.
The ancestor of the Meng family wasn't as lucky as Lian Ri. After all, when he went through the tribulation of ascending to Mahayana, he prepared many lightning-blocking treasures and even used a substitute puppet. Even with that, he only barely survived the tribulation. Afterward, he closed himself off for a hundred years to consolidate his cultivation.
This time he was completely unprepared and still got dragged into the tribulation. He had to endure double the amount of lightning strikes, practically suicide. So after the tribulation subsided, the Meng family ancestor turned into a charred piece of coal, with more breaths going out than in, just lying at the foot of Lian Yi.
The essence behind the ripples had been absorbed completely, allowing her to endure until the thunder tribulation ended. In the next instant, a rainbow rose in the sky, followed by a baptism of spiritual rain.
Ripple spread her arms wide, absorbing all the falling spirit rain into her body. Then, she stepped on Patriarch Meng's waist as he was about to slip away, and said coldly:
"Old man, do you think you can run away"
"You've already destroyed my Meng family, what else do you want"
The ancestor of the Meng family said weakly.
“I want to ask you, what does the Meng family plan to do To treat the lower realms as your family's private property, create a false heaven and earth, suppress the outstanding cultivators of the lower realms. Is this the ability of your Meng family Or is this the tradition of your realm”
The impact of this word "ripples" was much broader, and immediately some onlookers who were present became unhappy. One stood up and said:
"My fellow cultivator, your words are misguided. There is filth everywhere, and one person's mistake should not negate the entire cultivation world. This is unfair to us all!"
Ripples said in a dangerous tone:
"Fairness! Fairness is built upon my strength surpassing yours. If I, as a cultivator from a lower realm, were to accuse the Meng family, what would you do Would you hush it up or pretend nothing happened" did he publicly apologize to me."Duanzongqing shook his head."Father, have the men you sent north arrived""Zhang Fenglin came over to help his son clean up the mess during a gap in time, and Duan Che...
