However, things were much better than Lu Qingsi had imagined. Rong Xu was struck by lightning much less severely than Lu Qingsi had been. It was basically like being tickled. After the thunderclouds cleared, his clothes were generally intact, only slightly charred.
Lu Qingsi wondered if the power of the lightning tribulation was so great because she was inside the snake's belly at the time.
No matter how good this place is, it's impossible to stay here forever. Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible for one creature to ascend to immortality by cultivating here?
Seven days after Rong Xu passed his tribulation, they were sent out of this place and could no longer enter.
"What's going on?" Lu Qingsi looked at the barrier that had suddenly appeared in front of her and patted it hard, but it didn't react.
Rong Xu explained, "That's the rule here; you can't stay inside for too long."
He then asked Lu Qingsi and Lu Ming, "Where are you going next? Do you want to come along?"
Lu Ming said, "We have no problem with that, but we don't know if you want to come with us?"
Actually, Lu Ming didn't want to go with this guy. They'd been here for so long, why hadn't he gone back yet?
But Lu Ming couldn't bring himself to actually speak up and drive the person away.
“Let’s go then, let’s head east,” Lu Qingsi said.
"East? That seems to be Tianmen's territory. Why did Qingsi think of going there?" Rong Xu looked at Lu Qingsi.
"Really?" Lu Qingsi blinked blankly, clearly unaware of these things. However, upon hearing Rong Xu's words, she still smiled at him and said, "You're really amazing, you know so much."
Rong Xu's smile was a little stiff. This was common knowledge that many people knew. Was this girl praising someone or insulting them?
Regardless of his thoughts, the three of them continued on their way.
The name Tianmen sounds quite prestigious, but it's actually rather unpopular, especially among other cultivators. This is because the sect leader of Tianmen once declared that their sect was born in accordance with the will of Heaven and is destined to be the future leaders of all cultivators.
Listen to how arrogant he is. How could he possibly be liked by people from other sects?
However, they do have some skill; at least 70% of those who have ascended to heaven in the records came from Tianmen, which is something to be proud of.
As we walked that way, we heard many people saying that demons were causing trouble in the area under Tianmen's jurisdiction. The only good thing was that no one had been harmed so far.
Although rumors are just rumors and sometimes not very credible, there is always a bit of truth to them. After Lu Qingsi and the other two arrived here and saw everything with their own eyes, they realized whether the rumors were true or false.
Because of the chaos caused by demons, the once prosperous place has lost its former vibrancy and liveliness. The people are listless and live in fear. There are few pedestrians on the streets, and even when someone does go out, they come and go in a hurry. It is very similar to the situation in the small towns we encountered before.
Lu Qingsi and her two companions frowned, their eyes grave. Finally, they found an inn that was still open and went inside. The innkeeper looked worried because news of demons in the area had spread, and these days outsiders were avoiding Tian'an County, resulting in far fewer customers. It was rare to see anyone come, so he hurriedly and respectfully greeted them.
"Have you arrived, gentlemen?" he greeted them, and quickly brewed a pot of tea for them.
It's not the best tea, but it has a unique flavor.
