The diameter of this lightning pillar is half a foot, and it is as solid as a substance, containing a heart-pounding destructive power.

Ye Lanxun's Thousand Breaking Sword and Mu Hanyan's Frost Sky Sword attacked at the same time, the sharp sword light slashed towards the lightning pillar as if it was splitting the sky and the earth, while Xia Youchen slapped Ye Yanran with a palm.

Countless lightning bolts flew away like snakes. Ye Lanxun and Mu Hanyan were struck by the lightning beam at the same time, but it was like a stone falling into the sea, only causing a tiny ripple. Xia Youchen's powerful palm power, which had recovered to the semi-saint realm, was turned into nothing by the flashing lightning before it could hit Ye Yanran.

The power contained in this pillar of lightning was no less than that of a Sword Saint. If Ye Lanxun and his companions had been prepared, it would not have been difficult for them. However, the incident happened too suddenly. In such a hasty situation, not only Xia Youchen and Mu Hanyan, but even Ye Lanxun was unable to split it apart.

Hua Yue and the others also wanted to take action, but they were a beat too late. Of course, even if they took action, the effect would be the same.

A huge pillar of lightning, carrying the breath of destruction and death, instantly swallowed Ye Yanran.

"Yanran..." Yao Xinlan cried out in grief and rushed towards the beam of light. Even if she died, she wanted to die with her daughter.

"Wait, she's fine." Mu Hanyan grabbed her.

Yao Xinlan then realized that, at the moment the lightning beam engulfed Ye Yanran, her body suddenly vanished into nothingness, a hazy shadow. The immense lightning flashed through the invisible air, passing directly through her formless form and slamming heavily into the stone wall, creating a half-foot-deep crater in the solid granite.

Void barrier! Mu Hanyan and the others' hearts, which had been in their throats, finally settled down.

The situation had been so dire that they'd forgotten Ye Yanran possessed such a life-saving skill. Unlike Jiang Yuzhe's Disappearance, Ye Yanran's Void Barrier not only obscured her form but also completely transformed her into nothingness. While this also eliminated all attacking capabilities, and even after she emerged from the void state, it took a long time to recover, the upside was that it could ignore all attacks. If used purely for survival, it was even more effective than Mu Hanyan's Cangxuan Cloud Veil.

Of course, the phrase "ignoring all attacks" was only relative. In reality, even with Cang Xuan Yunsha, Ye Yanran's Void Barrier had its limits. As the golden beam of light disappeared between the stone walls, Ye Yanran reappeared, spitting out a mouthful of blood before collapsing to the ground.

"Yanran!" Mu Hanyan felt a pain in her heart, and hurried forward to hold her in her arms and examine her.

Ye Lanxuan, Hua Yue and others stayed by her side, on high alert to prevent the lightning beam from appearing again.

Fortunately, the lightning bolt didn't reappear, and Mu Hanyan quickly used her divine sense to examine Ye Yanran's injuries. Every meridian in her body was broken into several pieces, even her qi sea was cracked, and her internal organs were severely damaged. The injuries were so severe that even Mu Hanyan gasped at the sight.

If Ye Yanran's vitality had not been so strong to begin with, and had not been so strong after comprehending her innate magical powers, and had not been even stronger than Hua Yue, she would have died long ago after suffering such a serious injury.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. I won't die." Ye Yanran smiled relaxedly and comforted Mu Hanyan.

"Don't talk." Mu Hanyan glared at her unhappily. She was already so injured, yet she still had the mood to comfort others. I really didn't know what she was thinking. As she spoke, Mu Hanyan took out the Dragon Blood Huiyi Pill and prepared to give it to her.

"Don't waste it. Have you forgotten my innate magical power?" Ye Yanran smiled slightly and chanted again.

Following Ye Yanran's silver bell-like voice, all the injuries on her body healed at an astonishing speed. When the four words "Tianlin Shenyu" sounded, there was no longer any sign of injury on her body.

Mu Hanyan's previous judgment was correct. When Tianlin's divine healing technique is used on a divine guardian whose bloodline has awakened, the effect is ten or even a hundred times stronger than when used on ordinary people. Unless encountering a special situation like Yao Xinlan where her vitality is exhausted, it is no exaggeration to say that it can bring the dead back to life.

"Okay, I'm fine." Ye Yanran jumped up from the ground. Not only did she not feel tired after being seriously injured, she was full of energy as if she had taken a tonic pill.

"This lightning column is so powerful. Fortunately, I was prepared in advance, otherwise I would not know how I died." Ye Yanran came to the big hole in the stone wall, looked at the cave wall that was so smooth that it seemed to have been carefully polished, and said thankfully.

Hua Yue and the others were equally thankful. It was fortunate that Ye Yanran had the Void Barrier, otherwise, with her limited strength, she would have been blasted to pieces by the lightning pillar. Not to mention her, even Mu Hanyan, caught off guard, would have been seriously injured, or even killed. After all, the lightning pillar contained the power of a full-strength attack from a sword master.

"What should we do now?" Jiang Yuzhe asked.

Seeing the power of the lightning pillar, he didn't dare to move forward easily.

"How about I try again?" Ye Yanran said excitedly. Relying on the Void Barrier, Tianlin's Divine Healing, and a vitality even stronger than Huayue's, she had become addicted to playing with all her might.

"You really don't want to live." Mu Hanyan glared at her.

Even though Ye Yanran is full of energy now, she just had a close call with death. If the next lightning column is a little stronger, she may not be able to withstand it even with the void barrier.

"Let me try it." Ye Lanxuan said as he walked towards the ancient mirror.

"Boom!" Just when he was about five steps away from the ancient mirror, a pillar of lightning shot out from the ancient mirror again.

Ye Lanxuan was well prepared, and he struck with his Thousand-Breaking Sword. Amidst a muffled thud, a flash of lightning shot out like a serpent.

This time, Ye Lanxuan built up his strength and finally chopped the lightning pillar into pieces with one sword, but he himself was also knocked back a step. The Thousand Breaking Sword vibrated continuously, and only then did it dissipate the remaining power of the lightning pillar.

Ye Lanxuan's expression was solemn as he took another step forward. The lightning column shot out again, and Ye Lanxuan's Thousand Breaking Sword slashed out at the same time.

This time, he still shattered the lightning pillar with one sword, but he himself was still knocked back a step.

With a clear whistle, Ye Lanxuan flew forward and slashed out more than ten times in succession. As the sword light slashed out, his figure also moved rapidly around the ancient mirror.

His speed was so fast that even Mu Hanyan could barely keep up with him, while Hua Yue and the others could only see a fleeting afterimage. It felt like more than ten clones were attacking simultaneously.

However, the speed of the ancient mirror was not slower than it. More than ten lightning pillars blasted in all directions almost at the same time, and the power of the lightning was stronger than the last.

At the beginning, Ye Yanran was able to save her life with the help of the void barrier when hit by the lightning pillar, but if it were now, even if her strength doubled and the void barrier also doubled, her life would still be in danger.
