Ye Zheng's thunder tribulation not only attracted the attention of the Wanjian Sect, but also the attention of the other seven major sects.
After all, the disciples directly from the main peak are equivalent to the faces of each peak, and the chief is the face among faces. People like to compare the faces of the seven major sects whenever they have time.
The other disciples were better off, as they were mainly compared on the overall quality of their teachings. The chief disciple was in a terrible state, as they were compared from head to toe, inside and out, in every aspect.
The two most powerful ones are Ye Zheng and Qin Zhili from the Big Knife Sect.
These two people joined the sect at the same time and became famous at the same time. One specialized in swordsmanship and the other specialized in knife skills. They were the last two to compete in the martial arts competition of every Seven Sects Competition. For this reason, many people in Zhongzhou secretly wrote stories about their love and hatred.
However, these two people have always disliked each other, especially Qin Zhili, who particularly dislikes Ye Zheng.
Because he lost to Ye Zheng by one or two moves in every competition, and his breakthrough speed was a little slower than Ye Zheng, someone on Lingwang gave him a nickname, Qin Chadian.
Qin Zhili has always wanted to get rid of this title, and whenever he sees Ye Zheng in seclusion, he will follow suit.
Just before he started his retreat, a betting thread started on the forum, betting on who of the two of them could break through first, and 99% of people chose Ye Zheng.
Now ninety-nine percent of the people have won, but unfortunately, except for the disciples of the Wanjian Sect, no one has the joy of victory.
In the Da Dao Sect, Qin Zhili, who was being sympathized by thousands of people, was lying in his lounge, his hands quickly swiping through the pages of the communication jade slip.
His thick, sword-like eyebrows were tightly knitted, his bright, starry eyes were wide open, his thin lips were pressed into a straight line, and his resolute and handsome face was full of unhappiness.
But there was no point in being unhappy. Although he was also at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage and was even two years older than Ye Zheng, he still hadn't accumulated enough lightning resources and hadn't reached the critical point for a breakthrough. No matter how much he practiced seclusion, he wouldn't be able to break through!
The reason why he went into seclusion was simply that he didn't want to face the expectant or sympathetic gazes of the sect members.
Seeing the short video uploaded to the forum, Qin Zhili felt envious again.
It would be great if he could also take advantage of the thunder tribulation like Yun Feiyin. He has a heavenly-grade thunder spiritual root. Although he doesn't have a thunder spiritual body, he should be able to break through after taking advantage of Ye Zheng's thunder tribulation.
Unfortunately, he couldn't. His master was too concerned about his reputation and thought that he was the face of the Big Knife Sect. How could he take advantage of other people's thunder tribulations?
If you really want to get something for free, you can only get it from the Da Dao Sect, and never from the Wan Jian Sect.
God knows how envious he has been of the thunder tribulations that have appeared one after another in the sky above the Wanjian Sect recently.
Everyone on the forum was waiting for Ye Zheng to successfully overcome the tribulation, but Qin Zhili didn't want to watch. The more he watched, the more distressed he felt for himself. He decided to lie down and take a nap.
It was because of this sleep that Qin Zhili felt unwell.
He had a dream. In the dream, Elder Dao Cen, who had always ignored him, suddenly came to him and gave him a piece of purple jade with a human portrait engraved on it.
As soon as Qin Zhili touched the purple jade, he felt a strong aura of thunder and lightning. He felt like he had found a treasure and immediately went into seclusion. Soon after, he successfully broke through and came out of seclusion to overcome the tribulation.
It turned out that the purple jade actually contained the residual soul of an evil cultivator with a thunder spirit root. Taking advantage of the weakest moment during the thunder tribulation, it drilled into his sea of consciousness, devoured his soul, and occupied his body.
Qin Zhili was terrified when he dreamed of this. Was an evil cultivator possessing his body going to harm the Great Sword Sect? Would they use his position as the Great Sword Sect's chief disciple to go undercover in the righteous sect and help the evil cultivator commit evil deeds?
What Qin Zhili never expected was that the evil cultivator was actually a love-brained person and a pervert!
As soon as he saw the disciple of Wanjian Sect named Luo Shuangbai, he couldn't walk anymore. Not only did he throw himself over to be the man's licker, he was also willing to share Luo Shuangbai with six men.
Qin Zhili was shocked and puzzled, but also very heartbroken. The person he liked was Junior Sister Lian Fangyin from Tianyin Sect!
Woohoo, his body is dirty, he is no longer worthy of Junior Sister Fangyin.
After waking up, Qin Zhili was still immersed in the pain of being dirty. Even if it was just a dream, he felt that his body and mind had been polluted and he was no longer worthy of the pure and innocent Junior Sister Fangyin.
Just at this moment, someone knocked on the door of his training room. When Qin Zhili opened the door, he saw Elder Dao Cen holding a purple jade and smiling at him kindly.
Qin Zhili felt like his nightmare was recurring.
He forced himself to calm down, took the purple jade as if nothing had happened, and thanked Elder Dao Cen profusely. Then he closed the door, looking as if he was going to continue his retreat.
Qin Zhili then opened all the protective formations in the training room, activated the teleportation array, and teleported himself directly into the cave of his master, Sect Master Dao.
"Ahhh Master, help me!"
On the Wanjian Sect side, Ye Zheng was still continuing to overcome the tribulation.
The thunder tribulation tempered every inch of his muscles, bones, and flesh, and combined with his body-refining techniques, it tempered his entire body to a gleaming golden light, as if a golden body had been created for him.
Yun Feiyin, who was drawing talismans and hiding lightning not far away, was very happy to see this scene. The eldest brother's golden body armor was refined, and his body would be stronger and less likely to be injured in the future.
Ye Zheng experienced a total of fifty-four thunder tribulations. Due to the special nature of his physical training technique, he did not feel much pain from this thunder tribulation. However, he became more cautious as time went on.
Because the last few thunder tribulations of the Nascent Soul can allow people to see their own inner demons.
Ye Zheng didn’t know what his inner demon was. He didn’t even think he had one. Being vigilant was just a habit of his.
He was born in the realm and witnessed his parents sacrificed on the battlefield of fighting demons, but he was never blinded by hatred.
He was lucky. After his parents died, he was brought back to the mainland and grew up in a city protected by the Wanjian Sect. Every year, he received subsidies from the Wanjian Sect for the children of martyrs.
When he grew up, he was admitted to the Wanjian Sect as expected, and everything went smoothly for him from then on.
He respected his teachers and was friendly to his fellow students. Externally, he punished the strong and helped the weak, and acted bravely when he saw injustice. He had never had any dark thoughts or excessive desires.
He would practice step by step, be a good chief disciple, and then go to the realm to fight the horned demon.
Once he has been killing for ten years, the sect will take him back and send him to ascend to the upper realm.
This is consistent with his plan and is also the life he is satisfied with. How could he develop a demon in his heart?
But he didn't expect that he would see Yun Feiyin covered in blood and lying on the ground in a mess during the thunder tribulation.
It was an abyss filled with strange rocks, blood vines and poisonous barriers. Once trapped inside, one could not even use spiritual power and could only wait awake for the poisonous barriers to devour one's vitality, and when one was unable to resist, the blood vines would suck it all away.
He even heard Yun Feiyin's weak voice during the thunder tribulation.
"Brother, I can't hold on any longer."
In an instant, Ye Zheng was filled with murderous aura, and his eyes were shrouded in strange black mist.
