Talk About Bragging, How Do You Really Have The Qualifications Of The Great Emperor?

Chapter 67: Ji Yan: My mentality is collapsing?

On the other side.

Thunder Sound Peak.

After Li Zuoyue hung up the communication, Ji Yan became more and more worried.

He wasn't worried about Li Zuoyue killing Wang Xiu or anything like that, but rather worried that Li Zuoyue would also discover how outstanding Wang Xiu was.

And then.

Tell this matter to his master, Dugu Qingqian.

You should know that Sword Lineage is an extremely powerful existence among the various branches of the Three Purities Immortal Gate, and its overall strength surpasses that of Thunder Lineage.

And the current head of Sword Lineage, Dugu Qingqian, is on par with Luo Binglan.

These two individuals became famous almost at the same time, reached the Gold Core stage, Nascent Soul stage, and Astral Projection stage at the same time, and have been in opposition for half their lives.

However.

In the competition with Luo Binglan, Dugu Qingqian seems to have never gained any advantage.

Every time, she would be slightly suppressed by Luo Binglan.

Moreover.

Both of them have extremely hot tempers.

They belong to the type that draws their swords and attacks as soon as they disagree. The current heads and elders of the Three Purities Immortal Gate have been persecuted by them when they were young.

Later.

Luo Binglan was ambushed and besieged on Sea Demon Island in the East Sea, and she directly plunged into the Divination Lineage's grave.

In these years, Dugu Qingqian lost her dead rival in this competition, and her temper became more extreme and irritable. She always kept saying "be polite".

Well.

Indeed, one must be polite. Every time she bows to someone, it means she is going to beat them up.

The lower she bows, the harder she strikes.

In these years, many elders of the Immortal Gate have put her on the list of the Four Harms of the Three Purities, alongside the Sect Master Zhuo Canglang, Divination Lineage's Luo Binglan, and others.

It's terrifying!

If she finds out how outstanding Wang Xiu is, it is very likely that she will once again have the idea of competing with Luo Binglan and seducing her disciple!

You should know.

Dugu Qingqian is a real Saint Manifestation realm existence, and she is currently at her peak.

Her value.

Definitely cannot be compared to Ji Yan, who is only at the Astral Projection stage.

In addition, Ji Yan has too many sons, all of whom are heirs, while Dugu Qingqian has no children, no partners, and is also a great beauty herself.

If Dugu Qingqian has the idea of accepting Wang Xiu as her disciple, her competitiveness will skyrocket!

"No!"

"I must go to Maple City and increase my favorability!"

After thinking it over several times, Ji Yan couldn't hold back and decided to temporarily put aside his face.

He split the void with a palm and stepped into it, heading towards Maple City at the fastest speed.

After a while.

In the colorful void crack, Ji Yan reached out again and walked out.

Ruins!

Broken walls and ruins, the once magnificent Zhao Mansion has become a wasteland.

Under the dim night, there was still a faint Baleful Yin Qi lingering around, and there were traces of sword qi and blade energy on the surrounding walls and broken stones.

At this moment.

There was no one left in the Zhao Mansion. Li Zuoyue had left, and Wang Xiu had also left.

Sensing the residual aura of Li Zuoyue and Wang Xiu, one was obviously stronger, while the other was obviously weaker, indicating that the two did not leave at the same time.

Hmm.

Thinking of this, Ji Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that the two didn't leave together, which would reduce unnecessary conversation.

Wait!

Suddenly, Ji Yan seemed to sense something.

On his dignified and majestic face, a horrified and panicked expression appeared, as if he had seen a ghost.

No.

What's there to be afraid of for the dignified head of Thunder Lineage? It should be the ghost who is afraid of him.

What he discovered.

Is even more terrifying than seeing Dugu Qingqian!

In the central area of this Zhao Mansion, there is actually a residual aura of Heavenly Tribulation's will.

Although it is very faint and elusive, ordinary people would not be able to sense it.

But who is Ji Yan?

He is the head of Thunder Lineage, who has been stationed at Thunder Sound Peak for nearly a thousand years and has entered Heavenly Tribulation Valley countless times. He is extremely familiar with the aura of Heavenly Tribulation's will.

He can be a hundred percent sure that the residual aura is definitely left behind after Heavenly Tribulation.

Under what circumstances would there be the will of Heavenly Tribulation?

Either it's an Earth Immortal at the Transcending Tribulation Stage, and when advancing in the Transcending Tribulation realm, there will be remnants of Heavenly Tribulation will.

But the remnants of Heavenly Tribulation will here are obviously not from an Earth Immortal. The difference in magnitude between the two is like night and day.

Or.

It could be an extremely wicked demonic cultivator who, after triggering Heavenly Retribution and being killed, will also leave behind remnants of Heavenly Tribulation will.

This possibility naturally exists.

Although among the tens of thousands of demonic cultivators, not everyone will be condemned by Heavenly Retribution, there will always be someone unlucky.

If it were a few years ago and Ji Yan sensed the will of Heavenly Tribulation, he would not have reacted like this. After all, although Heavenly Retribution is rare, it is not worth paying attention to.

But.

Don't forget that just five days ago, Ji Yan gave Wang Xiu a scroll called "Heavenly Tribulation Curse".

And the Heavenly Tribulation Curse.

It is a technique that communicates with the will of the heavens, asking the heavens to send down Heavenly Retribution and exterminate evil demonic cultivators.

Five days ago, Wang Xiu obtained the Heavenly Tribulation Curse.

Five days later, the evil demonic cultivator from the Zhao Family died under Heavenly Retribution?

And Wang Xiu happened to be in the Zhao Family.

This...

This...

This...

Isn't this too coincidental?

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Ji Yan took a deep breath and slowly formed hand seals with his hands.

His divine sense instantly swept through the entire Zhao Family, especially the place where the remnants of Heavenly Tribulation were, and he checked it over and over again a hundred times!

Suddenly.

Ji Yan's pupils contracted as he discovered something wrong. The aura left by the remnants of Heavenly Tribulation had a slight difference from the naturally occurring Heavenly Retribution.

Even if other cultivators were at the Saint Manifestation stage, it would be difficult for them to detect the subtle difference. But Ji Yan could discern it clearly.

This Heavenly Retribution was definitely not naturally occurring, but was summoned by using the Heavenly Tribulation Curse!

Crack~

In the heavens and earth, there suddenly sounded the sound of something shattering.

Hmm.

That was Ji Yan's Dao Heart.

At this moment.

Ji Yan's eyes turned bloodshot, and his Dao Heart collapsed in an instant.

How could it be possible for someone to learn the Heavenly Tribulation Curse within five days and even use it in actual combat?

It should be noted that Ji Yan had meditated in the Heavenly Tribulation Valley for hundreds of years.

During those hundreds of years, apart from procreating, he spent almost all of his spare time in the Heavenly Tribulation Valley, pondering the Heavenly Tribulation Curse.

However, even with his painstaking efforts, he still gained nothing.

His Heavenly Tribulation Curse.

He couldn't even achieve the most basic "entry level," let alone cultivate it to be used in actual combat. It was simply unimaginable.

Coincidence!

All of this must be a coincidence!

I'm not crazy!

Not crazy!

Ji Yan's face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, causing even his Nascent Soul, which was extremely sturdy, to directly shatter.

It's not that his mental endurance was too weak.

It was just too unbelievable. He could accept that Wang Xiu had some divine assistance in learning Thunder Magic, and he could even accept that Wang Xiu mastered the Heavenly Tribulation Curse.

He could even accept that Wang Xiu, without relying on the Heavenly Tribulation Valley, cultivated the Heavenly Tribulation Curse solely based on his own talent.

But, at the very least, it should take a few more years!

Five days?

He mastered the Heavenly Tribulation Curse at a preliminary level in just five days. Isn't that too fast? Isn't that too insulting?

Could it be...

Is the gap in talent between people really this big?

It's even bigger than the gap between humans and dogs!

At this moment.

Ji Yan's aura became extremely chaotic, and he even began to doubt his own "Dao."

The so-called collapse of the Dao Heart.

It is not just a mere adjective. After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, it is not just about absorbing and accumulating spiritual energy and cultivating magical power.

What's more important is the tempering and sublimation of one's state of mind. It is said that a hundred years of arduous cultivation is not as good as a sudden enlightenment.

One thought to become a deity, one thought to become a demon.

Although this statement is somewhat exaggerated, it does have some truth to it. At this moment, Ji Yan has fallen into this special state.

The aura of the Heavenly Tribulation Curse left by Wang Xiu has stirred up the obsession deep within Ji Yan's heart.

Or rather, it has stirred up his inner demon.
