The moment the Lightning Seal appeared, the entire world seemed to be violently stirred by an invisible giant hand, causing the wind and clouds to surge wildly and change color drastically.
Thick, dark clouds, like surging black waves, rolled in from all directions, quickly obscuring the once clear sky and swallowing up all the light, leaving only a suffocating, oppressive darkness.
Everyone present was utterly stunned by this terrifying aura.
Their legs trembled uncontrollably, their eyes filled with terror and horror. From the crowd, someone spoke in a trembling voice, "What kind of magical artifact is this? Why does its power feel so terrifying, it's beyond imagination!"
Another person chimed in, "Yes, the oppressive aura it exudes is far more terrifying than the ancestor's magical artifact!"
The Bai family members stared dumbfounded at the giant seal floating in the air, their eyes filled with disbelief.
When Bai Ying dealt with Guo Lintian before, she also took out the Lightning-Attracting Seal, but the Lightning-Attracting Seal at that time was completely different from the one now.
At this moment, the Lightning Seal was surrounded by violent lightning. Thick bolts of lightning, like agile dragons, roamed freely across the seal, emitting deafening roars. Each explosion seemed to be the angry roar of heaven and earth, and its power was terrifying to the extreme.
"What kind of heaven-defying magic weapon is this?" The Bai family's eldest elder muttered to himself. However, before he could finish speaking, the Hua family's patriarch suddenly shouted, "Lightning-summoning Seal! Isn't this Qi Haoyuan's strongest magic weapon? Why is it in your hands?"
Bai Ying's lips curled up slightly: "What do you think?"
The Hua family patriarch's face instantly turned extremely ugly. "I had heard that the daughter the Bai family found this time was a disciple of the Lingyin Sect, but I did not expect that you would be so highly regarded."
"Indeed, I've never seen such a talented young person before. If you were a disciple of the Hua family, I would certainly nurture you well."
However, things had come to this point, and both sides were now locked in a desperate struggle to the death. The Hua family patriarch gritted his teeth, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes.
No matter the cost, we must eliminate Bai Ying today.
Fortunately, he had already trapped Bai Ying with an array. As long as she remained within the array, she would be unable to communicate with Qi Haoyuan. Qi Haoyuan would also remain unaware that she had died at his hands.
The Bai family had agreed to his actions before, and no matter what they thought now, they were in the same boat as him, so naturally they wouldn't complain to the Lingyin Sect.
At this moment, the group of people watching the battle from the sidelines were terrified when they heard the words "Lightning Seal"!
After all, that was a genuine celestial artifact! It was a supreme treasure that countless cultivators dreamed of and could never attain even after a lifetime of effort.
Even the Hua family patriarch, who had lived in this world for so many years, only had one pseudo-immortal artifact, while Bai Ying actually had a real immortal artifact!
The Bai family's high-ranking members were stunned. They knew Bai Ying was powerful and might be valued by the Lingyin Sect, but they never expected her to receive such attention.
That's Qi Haoyuan's immortal artifact!
The Bai family's eldest elder blushed deeply after hearing the Hua family patriarch's words. He had initially intended to nurture Bai Ying properly, but a single misstep...
He was going crazy! That was a genius disciple who had come to him of her own accord! As long as he treated her well, without having to pay anything, she would become the Bai family's greatest asset!
He was so regretful he was practically beating his chest in despair. His whole body was trembling.
Bai Di's eyes were fixed on the lightning-attracting seal, his jealousy almost overflowing.
I never imagined Bai Ying would possess such a magical artifact; she seemed so unapproachable. If only everything she had belonged to me.
Fortunately, Hua Mujian said from the side, "Although the Lightning Seal is powerful, Bai Ying is only at the Nascent Soul stage after all. She thinks she can kill my ancestor with a celestial artifact. She is too naive." Only then did Bai Di feel relieved.
In fact, even the Hua family patriarch himself thought so.
However, the moment Hua Mujian finished speaking, the already oppressive sky suddenly became even more gloomy and terrifying.
The dark clouds surged and rolled wildly like a raging black tsunami, with blinding flashes of lightning appearing and disappearing in the clouds, accompanied by deafening roars.
A massive bolt of lightning crashed down from the endless sky. Surrounded by purplish-black tribulation clouds, it resembled a world-destroying dragon that had broken free from the shackles of the abyss. The lightning danced wildly, emitting a deafening roar, like the howl of an ancient beast, threatening to completely overturn all order in the world.
This lightning, carrying terrifying power capable of destroying the heavens and the earth, formed twisted arcs of light. With unstoppable, thunderous force, it struck straight down towards the Hua family patriarch.
The Hua family patriarch looked up and saw that the lightning bolt filled his entire field of vision. Faced with this catastrophic disaster, his body seemed so small, like a speck of dust in a gale, which could be crushed into dust at any moment by this terrifying power.
As the Hua family patriarch stared at the lightning, his pupils contracted sharply, and his heart clenched at the same instant, as if it were about to leap out of his chest.
An unprecedented, immense fear instantly spread from the soles of his feet to his entire body, completely engulfing him in the blink of an eye, making his breathing rapid and difficult.
"What is this? Why is the power of this lightning so terrifying?"
The Hua family patriarch screamed inwardly, his voice trembling with terror and disbelief.
Bai Ying was just a junior in the Nascent Soul stage. How could she possibly unleash the power of the Lightning Seal to such an astonishing degree?
At that moment, he had only one thought: escape! He had to escape at all costs!
He had no intention whatsoever of trying to withstand this terrifying lightning tribulation. He needed to leave this deadly place immediately. If this incredibly powerful lightning bolt were to strike him, he would have no chance of survival and would surely die!
At the critical moment of life and death, the Hua family patriarch unleashed unprecedented speed, transforming into a black afterimage, like an arrow released from a bow, fleeing swiftly towards the edge of the formation. His movements were as fast as a ghost, creating whistling air currents along his path, producing sharp sounds.
However, just when he thought he was about to escape, a muffled thud was heard, and he crashed heavily into the formation he had set up himself. The formation, at this moment, was like an indestructible, massive wall, radiating a cold and merciless aura, trapping him firmly within it.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't escape.
The Hua family patriarch stared wide-eyed in disbelief, his face filled with terror and despair. He frantically waved his hands, desperately pounding on the formation that had trapped him, screaming in terror, "How is this possible? How is this possible!" He could never have imagined that the formation he had carefully set up would now become the biggest obstacle pushing him into the abyss of death, trapping him in this certain death trap.
