Let's walk together for the rest of our lives. If the host says to leave, she will leave.

The clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds. The thick clouds came rushing over with the momentum of a dark cloud that was about to destroy a city, weighing down people so heavily that they could not breathe.

Rumbling--

A huge thunder sounded like the collapse of the sky and the splitting of the earth. Purple thunder was clearly visible in the sky, and thunderclouds gathered in a certain direction as if with a purpose.

Starting from the Jindan stage, every time you cross a major realm, you will experience a baptism of thunder tribulation. The higher the level, the stronger the thunder tribulation, and the higher the talent, the stronger the thunder tribulation.

People in the world of immortal cultivation both love and fear this thunder tribulation. They love it because it can temper their muscles and bones and improve their cultivation, but they also fear it because it can strike them without mercy and can cost them their lives if they are not careful.

Now the purple thunder is getting more and more intense, making people feel weak before it strikes.

As everyone knows, the purple sky thunder is the thunder of tribulation, but no one knows which big guy is undergoing the tribulation that made such a big noise.

If these thunders strike, the dozen or so nearby hilltops will be razed to the ground.

Dao Yun stroked his beard and watched the show, wondering which mountain would be affected. He watched the terrible thundercloud slowly move towards the mountain behind his home.

broken!

The forbidden area in the back mountain of Tianqing Sect.

In a paradise on earth, a woman was sitting on a bed made of ten thousand year old ice.

She sat cross-legged, her long black hair like a waterfall, her white dress complementing the ice bed, and there was a faint spiritual aura floating around her.

Her eyebrows are curved, her eyes are closed, and the tips of her eyebrows are stained with ice and snow, making her look like a goddess.

However, her limbs were all wearing heavy shackles, and there were thick chains around her waist that bound her body. The chains made of black iron extended into the ground, and no one knew where they ended.

She opened her eyes, a light flickered in her dark pupils, and the ice and snow on her body surface disappeared in an instant.

She heard thunder outside.

“Oh my god! Oh my god! I’m going to die!” The system was panicking. “Quick, quick, quick! Inject the spiritual energy into the Xuanling Chain. Don’t hold any of it!”

Gu Ling did not hesitate and quickly channeled the spiritual power in his body into the Xuanling Chain.

Spiritual power was injected into the Xuanling Chain, and golden runes danced on the chain. Five thick chains transported the pure and deep spiritual power into the ground like blood vessels, injecting it into the mysterious formation below.

The spiritual plants in the back mountain absorbed the familiar spiritual power and grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, spreading across the entire back mountain in the blink of an eye.

Trees soared into the sky, lush spiritual plants grew wildly, and the entire Tianqing Sect was filled with spiritual energy that was so rich that it was almost liquid.

Even though he had already released spiritual power toward the Xuanling Chain, the thunder that had been accumulating in the sky still struck down regardless.

Gu Ling was struck by a thunderbolt. At that moment, his soul left his body and disappeared as a stream of light.

The thunder in the sky had no target, and the strength of the target struck by lightning was also declining sharply. The thunder circled for a while and then gradually dispersed.

The body separated from the soul was still injecting spiritual power into the Xuanling Chain. The cold air from the ice bed climbed up her dress, and frost flowers condensed on the surface of her body.

Everything fell silent again.

Wandering around outside without any protection for the soul is like running naked in the street. If one encounters a cultivator of similar level, the other party can easily severely injure him.

Gu Ling took out a piece of spiritual jade from the storage ring and hid inside it temporarily. The spiritual jade fell from mid-air, smashed a piece of tile, and landed directly on the bed.

Inside the spiritual jade, Gu Ling and the system looked at each other in bewilderment.

[Mission: Leave Tianqing Sect, anyone who stands in the way will die]

Four hundred years ago, the Tianqing Sect had just been founded, and the original owner received a favor from the Sect's leader and promised to protect the sect for two hundred years.

The original owner was a congenital spirit, and absorbing spiritual energy to cultivate was as easy for her as breathing and drinking water. The original owner had a clear mind and no inner demons, and cultivated smoothly all the way to the half-step overcoming of the tribulation.

The leader of the Tianqing Sect failed in his tribulation and turned to ashes in the thunder from the sky. This was undoubtedly a fatal blow to the Tianqing Sect which had just gained a foothold.

Fortunately, with the presence of the original owner, a big boss who was half a step away from transcending tribulation, the Tianqing Sect was not completely divided up by other sects.

She has been in the Tianqing Sect for two hundred years. On weekdays, she doesn't have much to do. She just needs to stay in the sect as a military deterrent. She also got the title of Xuanling Zun. Even so, she broke through the realm and became a big shot in the Tribulation Crossing Stage.

What is the concept of the Tribulation Period? One more step up and you can break through the void and ascend to become an immortal. Such big guys can be counted on one hand in the world of immortal cultivation.

Naturally, the Tianqing Sect would not allow such a great treasure to leave. The sect's top leaders lost all their dignity and cried and begged the original owner to stay.

The original owner felt that the cause and effect had been resolved and did not want to stay. On the night of her departure, she was persuaded by the sect's leaders to hold a farewell party. After all, this was the sect she had protected for two hundred years, so she naturally agreed without any suspicion.

They had long since found some black iron and made it into a black spirit lock. They set up a soul-binding formation in the back mountain of the sect to lock the original owner in a cave, and they also found a cold jade bed to calm the potentially restless spiritual power in the original owner's body.

The Xuanling Lock can not only bind the original owner, but also guide the spiritual power in the original owner's body into the Soul Binding Array. The spiritual power is transformed into spiritual power within the sect through the Soul Binding Array, continuously nourishing the natural resources and treasures within the Tianqing Sect and providing a cultivation environment for the disciples within the sect.

In this way, another two hundred years passed.

Although the original owner was an innate spiritual body, he could not bear the responsibility of providing spiritual power for such a large sect. His cultivation level regressed over the years and he was barely at the tribulation stage.

So what about the thunder tribulation at the beginning?

The higher the world level, the less restrained Gu Ling is. The moment she entered the original owner's body, her powerful soul directly elevated the state of her body itself, and she could ascend to heaven after only accepting the baptism of thunder tribulation.

What is a thunder tribulation? To put it bluntly, it is a method used by the Heavenly Dao to select talents. Since it is the Heavenly Dao itself that selects talents, shouldn’t it know everything about them?

Now that we know everything about Gu Ling, we discovered that he is an illegal resident.

The laws of nature in the world of immortal cultivation are not to be trifled with.

Now Gu Ling is in a dilemma.

Go back, or you will ascend accidentally. Don’t go back, and you won’t be able to complete the mission.

Gu Ling sighed: "What should I do now?"

The system rolled its eyes: "Cold salad."

……

The young man, about eighteen or nineteen years old, was tall and straight like a pine tree, with a pair of thick eyebrows that seemed to be drawn with a brush, with smooth lines that slanted into his temples.

She has beautiful long and narrow eyes with slightly curved corners, and plump lips with a slightly upward curve, giving her a very approachable posture.

He was wearing the outer disciple uniform with a white background and blue edges, but at this moment he was standing in front of the Third Elder, accepting the training resources that were not supposed to belong to outer disciples as if it was normal.

Jiang Shuning's eyes were filled with admiration and respect. He put the things into the storage bag neatly and said, "Third Elder, can I go back now?"

The third elder was wearing grey elder attire, with a mixture of white and black hair tied up on top of his head. His slightly long beard gave him a somewhat immortal feel.

"Well, go back and practice hard. Make sure you get good results in the sect competition in March."

In the Tianqing Sect's sect competition held every three years, outer disciples can challenge inner disciples. If the challenge is successful, they will replace the opponent and become inner disciples. If they are lucky, they can even be accepted as a disciple by an elder.

While keeping their own seats, inner disciples can challenge inner disciples with higher rankings than themselves. If the challenge is successful, they will obtain the opponent's cultivation resources.

Jiang Shuning bent over and clasped his hands, a gesture of great respect. The half-palm-wide waist belt outlined his waist, and when he lowered his head, a piece of white neck was exposed.

The young man's beautiful posture attracted the attention of the third elder. Jiang Shuning felt that disgusting gaze, and a hint of murderous intent and disgust flashed across his eyes.

"The disciple retire."

Jiang Shuning left the inner courtyard and headed towards the outer courtyard where the outer disciples lived. When several outer disciples saw him, they deliberately said loudly: "Some people are really lucky. They are outer disciples but have the resources of inner disciples."

"Who made me so valued by the Third Elder?"

"Oh, with him like that, he will definitely lose miserably in the sect competition."

Jiang Shuning acted as if he didn't hear anything. He kept an ambiguous smile on his face and walked towards his residence with big strides.

A few people couldn't stand his being so ungrateful and stepped forward to stop him: "Jiang Shuning, what benefit did you get this time?"

Jiang Shuning was thin but tall. He looked down at the people and felt a sense of oppression for no reason: "A good dog doesn't block the road. Please make way."

"Jiang Shuning!"

Someone reached out and pulled his collar. Jiang Shuning didn't dodge, but just smiled and said, "The sect competition is coming up soon. If I get hurt, do you think the Third Elder will cause trouble for you?"
