Chapter 144 [Spirit Pearl] Lu Limu escaped
Lu Lishen saw that this young imperial teacher really had some abilities.
"Come, help me calculate it too." He took a drop of his own blood. He wanted to see what the other party could say.
Before he could recover from his shock, the Imperial Master was given a barrage of orders, but he was not stingy and immediately frowned.
"You...are you a demon or an immortal? How can one person be both an immortal and a demon? Two people?"
Yes, there are two consciousnesses living in Lu Lishen’s body, one is Lu Lishen and the other is Lu Limu.
Lu Limu represents the devil, and correspondingly Lu Lishen represents the immortal.
"You guys are so weird. One of you has a seal in your body, one is both a demon and an immortal, and one of you is a heavenly being? I really feel like I've seen a ghost in broad daylight."
"You really saw a ghost." As soon as the words fell, Ji Changan appeared from nowhere.
"Ah!" The imperial teacher was so frightened that he fainted.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew in the pavilion, and Ye Musi summoned Changfeng.
He thought he would only have hatred for Ji Changan, but no, the moment he looked at Ji Changan again, his heart couldn't help but ache, and he still remembered his childhood when Ji Changan took him out to play, but people cannot stay teenagers all the time, they can't go back.
Ji Changan is no longer Ji Changan, and Ye Mushi is no longer Ye Mushi. They have their own paths, opposing paths.
Ye Musi stood straight, the sword body and the sword tip did not shake, but his heart was shaking.
"Ji Changan, you killed my father!"
"Kill? I'm your father and your mother's benefactor. Your mother said she'd been waiting down there for too long and missed your father so much, so she asked me to come and get him. How could that mean killing?" Ji Changan sneered. During the Lantern Festival, he had wanted to cause a stir, but he hadn't expected to see He Ju's long-missed senior brother. This must have made him take revenge and feel good. "I'm their benefactor."
Ye Musi no longer gave Ji Changan a chance to speak. As the long wind blew, he could only hear him chanting, "Dust Art!"
In an instant, an invisible force turned into wind and sand, surrounding Changfeng. The sword body of Changfeng emitted a dazzling light. The wind and sand seemed to be pulled by the sword energy, forming a series of rotating air currents, as if to tear the entire space apart.
Ji Changan was not panicked when he saw this. The Dust Art could condense the wind and sand into invisible sword energy and attack the enemy invisibly. However, he was in ghost form and had long since abandoned Bai Chaoyan's physical body. Although the Dust Art was powerful, it was of little use to him.
"Ah Si, don't waste your energy."
As he expected, the long wind and sand penetrated his body and pierced the pillar, making a "open" sound, and the pillar cracked in an instant.
"I'm not here to fight you, I'm here to help you." Ji Changan said with a smile, "But I didn't expect that the child next to you is actually Tiandao?"
He was hiding in the dark just now and had heard everything.
Although the young national teacher started his apprenticeship early, it is true that he has learned real skills and knowledge. He can recognize the way of heaven at a glance, and he believes it.
Then it made sense that the last time he saw the child, he was crushed by the invisible pressure.
What he didn't expect was that Tiandao was actually a child.
Ji Wang closed his eyes. He didn't want to get involved in what was happening here, so he disappeared. He wanted to go to the palace banquet and eat delicious food.
Suddenly, there were only four of them left in the attic.
"It seems that even if Heaven is by your side, it may not protect you at all!"
Ye Musi called back Changfeng and gripped the hilt of the sword tightly in his hand.
"If you want to fight, that's fine, but not now. This is the human palace, not the world of cultivation. If you hurt the mortals here, it will be an irreparable loss. You don't want to do that, do you?"
"What are you doing here?" Ye Musi ignored him and raised his sword, pointing it at Ji Changan. "I don't believe you can help me. You killed my father, who else do you want to kill?!"
Ye Musi thought about it and remembered what the national teacher said, that he had few relatives and that he was here to defeat the Empress Dowager. He immediately thought that Ji Changan was here to kill the Empress Dowager.
At this moment, Lu Lishen also summoned the Ten Thousand Bones Sword, standing on equal footing with Ye Musi, confronting Ji Changan.
"I'm not killing anyone. I'm really here to help you. The young national master said that your disciple is both a demon and an immortal. Aren't you curious about what he means?" Ji Changan smiled and looked at Lu Lishen. "I know. Not only do I know, I can also help him overcome the tribulation and become an immortal."
Ye Musi and Lu Lishen looked at each other. Ji Changan knew something that they didn’t know. Was he kidding?
"The mermaid pearl in his body belongs to the mermaid who was on the verge of ascending to heaven a hundred years ago. Furthermore, he himself is the son of a goddess and has the blood of a demigod. Why hasn't he ascended to heaven? Do you know?"
Ye Musi didn't know, but what he and Lu Lishen were more puzzled about was how Ji Changan knew that they had obtained the mermaid pearl, and how he knew that Lu Lishen was the son of the goddess. Few people in the world knew these things.
"I know. Not only do I know that I can help him ascend, but if you want to deal with Hua Jin, you must have the help of an immortal. Otherwise, with your current strength, Ah Si, you are still too young."
Ji Chang'an spoke sincerely, but there was calculation in his eyes, and Ye Musi saw it all. He didn't know how long the barrier he had set up on Shenghe Mountain would last. He knew it was difficult, and since he still hadn't found the Nightlight Pearl, if he could find a Supreme Immortal to help him, it would be an extra insurance policy, an extra way out.
"What conditions?"
“No need.”
Ye Musi and Lu Lishen spoke at the same time, each with different thoughts in their minds.
"Master, I don't want to ascend. What's so good about becoming an immortal? I just want to be a mortal with you."
"After ascending, you can still be together. What's wrong with that?"
Even if Lu Lishen didn't say it, he certainly knew that he could ascend, but he refused to do so. He suppressed his cultivation for fear of attracting a thunder tribulation.
He didn't dare to ascend. He was afraid because there was still a Lu Limu in his body. If he ascended, Lu Limu would escape. He had seen with his own eyes how Lu Limu hurt Ye Musi, so he would never ascend.
He would never give Lu Limu any chance to escape from his body.
"You want me to ascend, what are you thinking? You know it in your heart."
Ji Changan smiled and snapped his fingers, and a wisp of black smoke slipped out from Lu Li's heart.
"I have the final say on what's on my mind. If you don't want to, it's not up to you."
Seeing this, Lu Lishen swung the Wan Gu Sword, and the sword energy broke through the air. At the moment when it was about to hurt Ji Changan, "bang——" a thunderous sound shattered the sword energy, and the space twisted at that moment.
The house also looks like it is about to collapse.
"Your heavenly tribulation has arrived, and I've taken the things away." Ji Chang'an's lips curled up into a wicked smile, as if his trick had succeeded, and then he disappeared at the moment the attic collapsed.
At the same time, Lu Lishen also pulled up the national teacher who had fainted on the ground, and after he and Ye Musi left the attic, the attic collapsed instantly, followed by lightning and thunder in the dark night.
Ye Musi and Lu Lishen stood in front of the ruins of the attic. The lightning in the night sky was like an angry dragon, constantly shuttling across the sky and illuminating their pale faces.
The night sky resembled a torn scroll, thick with dark clouds that threatened to swallow the world. Thunder and lightning raged through the clouds, like the roar of a great beast, filling the air with fear. Lu Lishen's tribulation was like a catastrophe, with dark clouds looming overhead, as if the entire earth was trembling and poised to collapse at any moment.
"Master, I'm sorry, I..."
"What's sorry?" Ye Musi frowned. A Jiang could withstand these eighty-one heavenly thunders, and now Lu Lishen has to endure it too. He couldn't help but worry. A Jiang was very powerful a hundred years ago, but he was still like an ant in front of the heavenly tribulation. So what should Lu Lishen do?
He didn't know what Lu Lishen was talking about, and he didn't have time to think. He threw the sword into the air, raised two fingers, gathered his arms and then spread them outwards. Then the handle of the Changfeng sword expanded outwards to form a golden light array, covering the entire palace.
Mortals had never seen such a scene before, and they were so frightened that they ran around and hid.
Yuying'er looked up at the sky and her expression became serious.
"Quick, help the Empress Dowager in! It's thunder from the sky!" As she said this, she and Nanny Li helped the Empress Dowager into the banquet hall.
Ji Wang looked up to the sky and saw what was happening. Everyone hid themselves and looked outside curiously. Only he was not panicked at all and did not care at all. He ate the cake in his hand leisurely.
Because of panic, no one cared about a child stealing food. All they were thinking about was God’s wrath and punishment, and whether they could see the sun tomorrow.
"What's going on, Nannan?" The Empress Dowager was also frightened. She was still in shock, her lips were pale, and she thought of what the Imperial Master had said, a bloody disaster.
"Don't worry, Empress Dowager. It's just that a powerful being is overcoming the tribulation. These three realms are about to welcome their first immortal."
What is the concept of the first immortal? From the beginning to the end, there is only one, even if there was one in the past, it does not count.
A loud thunder broke through the sky and struck the Changfeng Sword.
Ye Musi held on. The power of the thunder should not be underestimated. Even Changfeng was emitting black smoke, but he still held on.
"Master, don't hold on, this is my disaster!" Lu Lishen pushed Ye Musi away, disrupting his spell, and instantly the Changfeng Sword was struck by lightning and fell down.
"Are you ready? Eighty-one heavenly thunders, this is no joke."
"Disciple is ready, but I'm sorry, Master, Lu Limu escaped..."
The moment he finished speaking, a bolt of lightning descended, striking Lu Lishen. Unable to dodge, Lu Lishen could only endure it, a bloody wound appearing on his body. He waved his hand, pushing Ye Musi away and shielding him with a magic array. Then, he slowly rose into the air, and at the same location where the Changfeng Sword had been, he activated his own magic array, taking on the incoming thunder tribulation.
Ye Musi's heart was filled with mixed emotions, and he clapped his hands. Lu Li was afraid that he would do something stupid, so he used the magic circle to trap him here, while he was also casting the magic circle himself, which would distract him and make it even more difficult for him to ascend.
The thunder tribulation came suddenly, and Ye Musi just knew that Lu Lishen could ascend. He was happy in his heart, because his disciple was the first person in the Three Realms to ascend. But at the same time, he was also worried, because Lu Lishen's ascension meant that he would have to bear unnecessary responsibilities like himself, and they would no longer be themselves.
Lu Lishen is a horse that has broken free from its reins and should not be bound by responsibilities, but today Tian Lei wants to put shackles on him to control and lead him.
Ye Musi could only watch helplessly. He wanted to protect his apprentice and the people. He was greedy and wanted to have both. But in order to protect the people, he had to push Lu Lishen out to fight. He understood the truth as he was in the situation, and he felt distressed.
Tears began to fall unconsciously.
"A Li, you are stupid! This will distract you! Hurry up and take down the barrier!" He didn't dare to break through the barrier easily, as this would make Lu Li Shen, who was already in a worse situation, even more difficult to withstand the thunder.
Lu Lishen didn't listen.
Thunder and lightning roared like a giant beast, raging around Lu Lishen. Each bolt of lightning carried boundless power, as if threatening to tear him apart. Lu Lishen's body trembled under the thunder and lightning, but he fought with all his might, trying to protect himself and Ye Musi.
“Ali!!”
Ye Musi looked at the charred man and felt panicky. It was not that he did not believe that Lu Lishen could succeed, he was just afraid that A Jiang's ending would be the same as Lu Lishen's.
A Jiang died when the cultivation world was fighting against the demon world. He died under the Ten Thousand Bones Sword, and more importantly, he died before the last thunder tribulation.
Ye Musi looked up, and the darkness flickered again and again, as if day and night were constantly switching, making it difficult to distinguish reality.
