Chapter 723: The Sword Master Overcomes Tribulation
The hut in the Zizhu Forest behind the Juggernaut Villa is where Mu Jianchen goes every day. Once Mu Jianchen leaves, he will wait until sunset before returning.
Every day when Mu Jianchen comes back, he has a calm expression on his face, holding a long sword in his hand, and his expression is very serious, giving the impression that strangers are not allowed to enter.
Li Ling has been living in Sword Saint Villa for a month. Mu Mingyu also married into Situ's family and has not returned to Mu's family in Sword Saint Villa for a month.
Mu Mingyu is a person who loves his family very much. Now that he has not been back for so long, how could Mu Jianchen, as a father, not miss his daughter? But what is the use of missing her? And cultivation is the only way to escape missing her.
"Senior Mu." Li Ling called from behind Mu Jianchen.
"Oh...it's Li Ling." Mu Jianchen turned around, seeming disappointed.
"Senior Mu, have you gone to the purple bamboo forest behind the mountain again?" Li Ling asked with a smile on his face.
"Yeah..." Mu Jianchen said with a reluctant smile.
"Senior Mu, how about we talk?" Li Ling said.
When Mu Jianchen saw that the sun was about to set, he laughed and came over, patted Li Ling's shoulder and said, "Come on, let's go have a drink."
"Senior Mu, no need, I'm here to talk to you about my departure." Li Ling said with a smile.
"You want to leave, why?" Mu Jianchen said in surprise.
"Senior Mu, I have been disturbing you here for quite some time. It's time to leave," Li Ling said.
"If we stay at Juggernaut Villa, our Juggernaut Villa covers such a large area, we can provide food and accommodation for one person." Mu Jianchen said with a smile.
"No need. Senior Mu, the first level of the world is vast, and I still need to travel to other areas to expand my knowledge." Li Ling said with a smile.
Mu Jianchen could also understand Li Ling's mood of wanting to see the world. After all, who has never been young? Mu Jianchen laughed and said: "If you want to leave, I can't stop you. I'll do it again in the future."
come back?"
"No more." Li Ling replied simply.
"Why?" Mu Jianchen asked curiously.
"Because I will go to the second heaven." Li Ling said with a slight smile.
"Go to the second heaven. You are very ambitious. From the first moment I saw you, I felt that you were not a thing in the pool." Mu Jianchen patted Li Ling on the shoulder and said.
"Senior Mu, don't miss your daughter too much. Go and see Mu Mingyu when you have time. I know the pain of missing you better than anyone else," Li Ling said consolingly.
Mu Jianchen sighed slightly, knowing that his thoughts were not hidden from Li Ling.
"Little brother Li Ling, you are still attentive." Mu Jianchen couldn't hide the longing in his heart.
"Senior Mu, Li Ling will take leave now." Li Ling turned around and prepared to leave.
Mu Jianchen hurriedly stopped Li Ling and said, "Brother Li Ling, since you have been here at the villa for so many days, I have nothing to give you. I will give you this Tianquan Sword."
When Li Ling saw the sword with cold light shining in Mu Jianchen's hand, he knew it was a fine fairy sword.
"Senior Mu, this is your treasure, I can't take it." Li Ling hurriedly postponed.
"It's okay, just take it. I'll be through the tribulation in three years. There's no use keeping this sword." Mu Jianchen handed the sword to Li Ling.
Li Ling took it in his hand and suddenly felt heavy. It looked like a thin sword, but he didn't expect it to be so heavy.
"It's very heavy. Get used to it slowly. If you can use this sword well, its power will not be weaker than ordinary magic weapons." Mu Jianchen said modestly. In fact, if you can use this sword well, even if you encounter powerful enemies,
The magic weapon will not lose.
It can be seen how important this Heavenly Quan Sword is, but Mu Jianchen gave it to Li Ling.
Li Ling said gratefully: "Thank you, Senior Mu."
"Say thank you and go out. If Yu'er hadn't enlightened you, I probably wouldn't be willing to marry Situ Ming now. This is my thanks to you. Besides, I will go through the tribulation in three years. Life or death is unpredictable.
Keeping the Heavenly Quan Sword is of no use." Mu Jianchen said with emotion, in the face of divine punishment, no one is completely sure that he can successfully overcome the disaster.
Li Ling accepted the Heavenly Quan Sword. If he continued to give in like this, he would be a bit frustrated and look down on others, and Mu Jianchen's good intentions would be in vain.
"Then I'll accept it without mercy." Li Ling said with a smile.
"Of course it should be. By the way, little brother Li Ling, since you are going to the first level of heaven, have you ever thought that there are many dangers in this level of heaven?" Mu Jianchen said.
"Of course I thought it would be dangerous." Li Ling said.
"Instead of doing this, you will stay for three years and wait for me to finish the tribulation. It will not be too late to leave." Mu Jianchen also wanted to keep Li Ling for three years.
"This..." Li Ling really didn't know how to refuse.
"Moreover, in these three years, you can learn how to use the Tianquan Sword. If you use the Tianquan Sword well, you will have something to rely on when you leave the Sword Saint Villa and travel." Mu Jianchen said.
.
What the Sword Master said made sense. Li Ling could not refuse, but had no choice but to stay. Later, Li Ling found out that Mu Jianchen gave him the Tianquan Sword with the purpose of keeping him for another three years. This had to make Li Ling
Ling felt that Mu Jianchen was really lonely and lacked close friends.
"Okay, I will stay for three years to study this Tianquan Sword." What else could Li Ling say?
"Okay... let's go have a drink today. We won't come back until we get drunk." Mu Jianchen said with a laugh.
"Haha... Let's go now." Li Ling put away Tianquan Sword and went to the front hall to drink with Mu Jianchen.
The next day, Mu Jianchen took Li Ling to the purple bamboo forest in the back mountain. The purple bamboo forest has beautiful scenery, elegant environment, pavilions, mountains, rivers and waterfalls!
Mu Jianchen carried the wine gourd early in the morning and started drinking wine in the mountains. While drinking, he entered the training stage of the Sword Saint Technique of the Sword Saint Villa.
Li Ling watched from the side. During Mu Jianchen's practice, a large amount of immortal energy would be condensed, from thick to thin, looking like mist.
"What a powerful immortal energy formation." Li Ling, standing a hundred meters away, could feel the overwhelming power of the immortal energy condensed into mist.
Li Ling walked away silently, took out the Tianquan Sword and began to understand the use of the Tianquan Sword. Li Ling took the Tianquan Sword and danced a few times, and found that the Tianquan Sword became heavier as he danced. The weight could actually change.
Increase the dancing time.
Li Ling danced for a minute, and a lot of sweat oozed from his forehead! He was panting constantly, but Li Ling also found that during the minute of dancing, the immortal energy in Li Ling's body also increased a lot, and this turned out to be a handle.
A magical sword that can increase your power.
But at the same time, Li Ling also discovered another problem. Damn it, this Tianquan Sword actually increased with the increase of immortal energy in the body. Its weight also increased geometrically, and Li Ling finally couldn't lift it.
After holding the Tianquan Sword, there was a bang and the sword fell to the ground.
Every day after that, Li Ling would hold the Tianquan Sword and swing it as hard as he could for several minutes. Just these few minutes were enough for Li Ling to suffer.
A month later, Li Ling could wield the Tianquan Sword for more than half an hour. At this time, the immortal energy in Li Ling's body was even stronger.
After wielding the Tianquan Sword for more than half an hour, Li Ling took out the Fire Cloud Mirror. The immortal energy in Li Ling's body was improved, and he became more comfortable using the Fire Cloud Mirror than before.
It can continuously condense flames, and it can also summon a fire phoenix.
Three years passed quickly. During these three years, every time at the end of the year, Mu Mingyu would come back to visit his father, and then leave within three days.
As the owner of Juggernaut Villa, Mu Jianchen is about to step down and hand over to Situ Ming. After all, Situ Ming is his only son-in-law.
The day of divine punishment is approaching. If you want to trigger divine punishment, you must rely on your own powerful immortal energy to fight against heaven in a very hidden place. While fighting against heaven, heaven will generate resistance power, that is
The so-called punishment from heaven, if the one who fights against the sky can withstand the nine thunder punishments from the sky, he can successfully ascend to the sky and go to the second heaven.
"Father, tomorrow is the day when you will receive the punishment from heaven. My daughter is very worried about you." When Mu Jianchen was about to receive the punishment from heaven, Mu Mingyu came back. Not only Mu Mingyu, but also many people from the Situ family came.
Already.
The Heavenly Punishment is a big event, and it will definitely attract many people from the immortal world to come and watch. This day is also a very lively day in the Sword Master Villa.
"The Sword Master is going to get punished by heaven today, so we need to broaden our horizons."
"Hey, that's right. Small immortals like us with no family or sect probably won't be able to survive the tribulation in this life. However, it's okay. If we don't survive the tribulation, we won't be wiped out. At worst, we can spend the rest of our lives happily.
Good choice.”
"How sure do you think the Sword Master is that he can successfully overcome the calamity?"
"According to me, the chance of Sword Saint successfully overcoming the tribulation is quite high. In fact, every owner of the Sword Saint Villa has successfully overcome the tribulation. Only a very small number of owners have been struck to death by lightning. I think,
This year’s Sword Master Mu Jianchen should also be able to successfully overcome the calamity.”
"That's not necessarily true. I heard that Sword Master Mu Jianchen has no son, only one daughter, and that the Sword Master Villa will be managed by outsiders in the future. It is very difficult for a Sword Master with such distracting thoughts and flaws to successfully overcome the calamity.
not that simple."
The topic everyone discussed revolved around the Sword Master's tribulation. On this day, tens of thousands of people came to watch, and the momentum was huge.
"Look, that's Situ Huang, the current head of the Situ family."
"Really, it's really Mr. Situ Huang. I didn't expect that such a senior would come to support me."
Situ Huang also came, and brought Situ Ming and Fairy Yuyao with him.
As Situ Huang's junior, Mu Jianchen naturally put etiquette first in dealing with Situ Huang.
"Senior Situ, you also came to watch my tribulation, which really boosted my confidence." Mu Jianchen said to Situ Huang very respectfully.
"Good nephew, I will naturally come to watch you survive the tribulation. Back then, your father and I were close friends. I didn't expect that hundreds of years later, it would be his son's turn again." Situ Huang sighed with emotion and touched his beard.
road.
"Senior Situ, I'm just kidding, I'm not completely sure about overcoming the tribulation this time." Mu Jianchen said with a slight smile.
"No one can be sure of overcoming the tribulation. There are risks in overcoming the tribulation. Try your best. You are much better than an old man like me." Situ Huang laughed.
"Senior Situ, you are too modest. Senior Situ, you are a well-prepared person and will not be impulsive. Only people like you are the first choice to successfully overcome the calamity with 100% success." Mu Jianchen complimented.
"My nephew is joking." Situ Huang burst out laughing.
At this time, it was three o'clock in the sun, and there was only one hour left. Mu Jianchen was about to prepare for the tribulation. The tribulation was nothing else, it was very dangerous. Moreover, when the tribulation was over, no one could be around within a hundred miles, otherwise, it was very likely that
It will affect the tribulation seekers themselves.
In the immortal world, there is also an unwritten rule that when an immortal is going through a tribulation, no one else can disturb him.
In fact, overcoming the tribulation itself is an extremely difficult matter. If anyone interferes again, the success rate will drop to zero.
An hour passed quickly. Mu Jianchen, reluctant to leave his daughter Mu Mingyu, headed into the mountains alone. As the owner of the Sword Saint Villa, Mu Jianchen was about to start the punishment from heaven.
Li Ling also wanted to see what heavenly punishment was like.
After Mu Jianchen's figure disappeared from everyone's sight, everyone knew that Mu Jianchen was looking for a suitable place to trigger heavenly punishment.
Situ Huang stroked his beard and sighed, admiring Mu Jianchen's courage. At this young age, he actually had the idea of overcoming the disaster. This courage and courage are indeed extraordinary.
Everyone was waiting for the heavenly punishment to come down. In fact, the most nervous one was Mu Mingyu. Mu Mingyu held the hand of her husband Situ Ming tightly, her palms were covered with sweat.
"Yu'er, father can definitely succeed, he can definitely do it." Situ Ming looked at Mu Mingyu encouragingly, his eyes were extremely confident.
Mu Mingyu saw a glimmer of hope in Situ Ming's eyes and nodded with conviction.
Suddenly, on the top of the mountain a hundred miles away, black clouds began to gather, and among the black clouds, countless thunder snakes began to flash.
The thunder punishment is about to begin.
Everyone present held their breath, waiting for this most important moment.
It was the first time for Li Ling to see thunder punishment, and he watched the whole process of overcoming the tribulation more carefully, not wanting to miss anything.
Zizzi...The thunder and lightning were swimming in the black clouds, and the burning black clouds crackled.
"A hundred years ago I saw Mu Ya overcome the tribulation, and today I saw his son Mu Jianchen overcome the tribulation. Haha, I have witnessed the tribulation of two generations." Situ Huang stroked his beard and smiled.
As the black clouds condensed and became denser, the electric snakes in the clouds became more and more intense. People standing hundreds of miles away could feel the powerful power of the thunder snakes.
Here, where we were watching the Thunder Punishment, it started to rain lightly. This is the natural weather that occurs during the tribulation.
"Look, lightning is starting to appear in the dark clouds." A person reminded him immediately.
In fact, everyone can see it, it's just that the person can't help but say it.
Boom...
A terrible thunderous sound came from a hundred miles away, and the entire mountain seemed to shake.
"Awesome." Li Ling sighed in his heart. Li Ling could clearly see the thunder of punishment that day, but the real thunder of punishment hadn't come down yet, so it was just a prelude.
boom……
A purple thunder rushed down from the black clouds. It was more like a purple waterfall than thunder.
Li Ling stared at the Thunder of Heavenly Punishment with wide eyes, and was dumbfounded. With Li Ling's eyesight at this moment, he saw nine thunders descending from the clouds almost at the same time.
After a loud rumble, half of the peaks hundreds of miles ahead were shattered by the thunder of punishment.
"Father..." Mu Mingyu couldn't help but shouted out. At this moment, everyone was holding their breath, not knowing Mu Jianchen's life or death situation.
After a period of silence, a loud whistle came from the place of punishment.
"It's father...it's father's voice." Mu Mingyu's tears burst out instantly, tears of gratitude and joy. Mu Jianchen did not die and survived the thunderstorm smoothly.
"That's great." Situ Ming held Mu Mingyu's hand tightly and smiled happily.
"I'm just telling you that Sword Saint can definitely overcome the calamity. He is the owner of Sword Saint Villa." Situ Ming chuckled.
Situ Huang was also very excited. After seeing that Mu Ya and his son Mu Jianchen both successfully overcame the tribulation, Situ Huang was also tempted to go through the tribulation. However, the shadow of his son Situ Ang who was struck by lightning and was wiped out was also
Deep in Situ Huang's heart, this is one of the reasons why Situ Huang has never been willing to overcome the calamity.
"Yeah." Mu Mingyu liked it so much that she couldn't describe it in words.
Although Mu Jianchen succeeded in overcoming the tribulation, he also suffered severe internal injuries. However, as long as he withstood the thunder tribulation, his body would be quickly repaired by the immortal energy. Then, Mu Jianchen would break through the sky, black and white.
The clouds were dispersed.
"Yu'er, if you successfully overcome the tribulation for your father, you will ascend to the second heaven. From now on, you and Ming'er will take care of the Sword Saint Villa." Then, Mu Jianchen split the void with a sword. A streak of void.
The realm gate appeared, and Mu Jianchen took one last look at the First Level Heavenly Queen before stepping into the void realm gate.
Li Ling has finally seen the so-called divine punishment. He knows how powerful the divine punishment is. With Li Ling's current small body, let alone resisting the thunder punishment, the thunder clouds alone are probably enough for Li Ling to bear.
After Mu Jianchen passed through the tribulation, everyone dispersed with satisfaction.
"It's time for me to leave." Li Ling has already experienced thunder punishment, and he has also witnessed Mu Jianchen's success in overcoming the tribulation. He has also made preparations for himself to overcome the tribulation in the future.
Li Ling left without saying goodbye to Mu Mingyu and Situ Ming. It was not because he didn't know the etiquette. It was because Li Ling was a free-spirited person and could go wherever he wanted. He was used to freedom.
After leaving Sword Saint Villa, the process of Mu Jianchen overcoming the tribulation still flashed in Li Ling's mind.
"Grandpa Black Dragon once said that the nine thunder punishments have a sequence, but it seems to Li Ling that they did come down like a waterfall." Li Ling clearly remembered.
"Could it be that my eyesight is not strong enough?" Li Ling began to doubt his eyesight.
Without realizing it, Li Ling flew a hundred miles. At this moment, the sky was already dark, and there was a fairy city in front of him. Li Ling decided not to travel at night and planned to go to the fairy city to take a rest.
When we arrived at Fairy City, everyone was still discussing Mu Jianchen's tribulation today. This topic is likely to continue for several days.
Li Ling found an inn to stay in. The owner of this inn was an extremely weird-looking guy, but he was much better than those snake people.
The fairy world is a world where humans and demons coexist. It is not unusual for demons to open shops and do business.
"Waiter, please go to the upper room." At this time, a man with blue eyes came in. There were strange lines on his face, which looked very strange.
The rune man glanced at Li Ling and then quickly put his gaze away.
Li Ling also felt very strange that the man with runes on his face knew him.
Just when Li Ling was preparing to drink some wine and eat some food before going to bed, the two of them began to discuss something.
"Have you heard that there is a ten-thousand-year-old snake demon in the Langshan Mountains five hundred miles away from Feicheng recently? It specializes in absorbing the essence of passers-by. Most of the people who pass by the Langshan Mountains alone at night will die.
, the essence was sucked away by the ten-thousand-year-old snake demon."
"Yes, so now most people don't dare to walk at night, nor do they dare to pass Langshan alone."
"There is another more magical thing that also happened in Langshan. I wonder if you have heard of it." Another person interjected objectively.
"whats the matter?"
"It is said that the ten thousand year old snake demon in Langshan Mountain is the incarnation of the master of Wan Dao Sect."
As soon as he said these words, the man with runes on his face immediately walked over and crushed the table where the three people were sitting around.
"You are not allowed to talk nonsense. How could the ten-thousand-year-old snake demon be the incarnation of the master of the Ten Thousand Blades Sect? Don't talk nonsense." The blue eyes of the man whose face was covered with runes stared at the three nonsense men with murderous intent.
people.
"Who is talking nonsense? We all saw it with our own eyes. When the ten-thousand-year-old snake demon transformed, he looked exactly like the master of the Wan Dao Sect."
"What you saw with your own eyes is what you saw with that eye. I will dig it out for you right now." The man whose face was covered with runes pulled out the short knife in his hand and was about to go forward and dig out the eye.
"Brother, calm down." Li Ling took the hand of the man with runes on his face and said with a smile.
"Who are you?" The rune man looked at Li Ling and asked.
"You just stared at me for a long time, but you don't know who I am?" Li Ling shook his head and smiled.
"I don't know who you are? It's just that I saw you a few days ago and went to watch the Sword Master's Tribulation, so I recognized you." The rune man said.
"Oh... So that's the case, no wonder." Li Ling could guess that the rune man must have seen him standing with Mu Mingyu and Situ Ming, and felt that he must be something different, so he looked more
A few glances.
"From now on, you are not allowed to slander our Wan Dao Sect casually. Our Wan Dao Sect is also a well-known immortal sect and will not tolerate any gossip." The rune man snorted coldly.
When the three people saw that they were from Wandaomen, they immediately ran away in despair, knowing that today they would be kicked against the iron plate.
"Wandao Sect?" Li Ling was surprised. There should be many sects in the immortal world, and Wandao Sect must also be a good sect.
"Well... although our Wandaomen is not as good as the Sword Saint Villa, it is not far behind?" The rune man invited Li Ling to sit down. He said this, which means that you, Li Ling, know the people at the Sword Saint Villa and are also close to you.
My status is about the same.
Li Ling nodded, ordered two bottles of wine and said, "Let's drink together."
"I'm sorry, I don't drink. Tomorrow I have to go to Langshan to investigate the matter of the Ten Thousand Years Snake Demon and clear my Wan Dao Sect's name," said the rune man.
"Oh...what do you call me dear?" Li Ling asked.
"I'm Feiyun." The man with runes said grandly. (To be continued...)
