Boom! "Master, help me."

Thunder rumbled in the sky, and a ray of lightning fell from the calamity cloud, striking directly on the black, glowing body.

Dahei screamed and was struck deep into the earth.

"Master, help!"

In the blink of an eye, another scream was heard, and the big black creature that was struck deep into the earth jumped into the air.

Under the baptism of lightning, its black shell cracked, and drops of demon blood spilled onto the ground. Only its two big eyes like black gems revealed a determined look.

"Dahei, the master asked you to pray to God."

Sanqian and the twenty-thousand who had just survived the tribulation, stayed away from the range of the tribulation and watched Dahei who was going through the tribulation with worry.

Boom!

Another bolt of lightning struck down, and the big black man that had just flown into the air fell into the depths of the earth again.

Billowing black smoke came out of the cracks in the collapsed earth. This time when Dahei stood up, a pair of pincers fell off his body.

"Ouch, Master, my pliers fell off."

Dahei roared and rushed into the air again.

Boom!

The fifth thunderbolt came crashing down.

The tearing lightning turned into countless electric arcs, directly freezing Dahei in mid-air.

Purple lightning and silver light penetrated into Dahei's cracked body.

"Master, I'm...broken again."

"Brother Dahei, you prayed to the wrong god." Sanqian shook his little tail and pouted.

The big black being shrouded in lightning was twitching continuously, and clusters of blood bloomed from its cracked body.

Even so, Dahei still waved the remaining large pincer and yelled: "Master is my only God!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the last bolt of lightning from the rolling calamity clouds crashed down.

The lightning fell like a meteor and carried Dahei into the depths of the earth.

On the surface, electric lights intertwined, electric arcs burst in all directions, and splashed up dust all over the sky.

The calamity clouds in the sky made a dull sound and then began to gradually dissipate.

"Big Black!"

Sanqian and Erwan wanted to rush forward but were stopped by Shen Lian.

I saw that a large rift had been formed on the ground below the center of the area covered by the thunder catastrophe. Lightning flashed from time to time in the rift, and the rich smell of thunder and fire filled the air.

In the center of the rift, a ball of black charcoal was wriggling.

At this moment, the remaining pincer of Dahei had been destroyed by the lightning and fire, and several of his legs were gone, and even his huge black horn was cut off by the lightning.

The remains were like cracked charcoal, emitting black smoke.

The demon's blood flowed down the cracked shell, forming a small puddle of blood.

Buzz! At this moment, from the calamity cloud that had not yet completely dispersed, a mysterious spiritual light descended and fell towards the trembling Big Black.

At this moment, Dahei quickly transformed. The charcoal-like shell quickly cracked, revealing a new shell with a slightly pink color. The ant legs that had fallen off from its abdomen also grew back.

"Dahei, are you okay?"

After seeing the mystery falling from the sky, Shen Lian asked Erwan and Sanqian to get close to Dahei.

The two children breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Dahei was transforming his bloodline with the help of the baptism of heaven.

"Flatterer, why didn't I chop you to death?"

"Master is my only God!"

Three Thousand and Twenty Thousand sang in unison, and just now during such a dangerous thunder tribulation, this black-headed guy finally managed to show off.

"My master is also my only immortal."

Seeing Shen Lian coming, Sanqian's eyes turned and he immediately came over.

"You fish ass spirit." Er Wan cursed angrily.

"Master, I am the same."

…

After half an incense stick of time, Dahei crawled up from the ground, shook his body violently, and all the charcoal shells remaining on his body fell off. He looked at his two pink little pincers and was stunned.

"Master, look, the black one has turned into a pink one."

After shedding its outer shell, the big black fish turned a light pink all over, and its two large claws became small in size.

"I am a male ant."

No matter how miserable Dahei was, after going through the baptism of the heavenly tribulation, he made the greatest progress.

There's nothing he can do about it, it's because he started from a low point.

Then, Shen Lian released the Five Elements Ship, "Come here, burn some incense to the heavens, and thank them for taking the time out of their busy schedule to strike you down."

Dahei listened to Shen Lian's instructions very obediently, stood up, and used his pink little pliers to pick up three incense sticks and placed them respectfully in the incense burner.

Three Thousand and Twenty Thousand also followed suit and bowed respectfully towards the Monument of Heaven and Earth.

Shen Lian stood aside, squinting his eyes and staring at the Spiritual Monument of Heaven and Earth. It was true that Heaven and Earth hated living beings, but through the fact that cultivators could still survive the tribulation, it could be seen that the order of Heaven and Earth was still functioning, and a large part of it should still be normal.

"Let's go."

Soon, the Five Elements Ship turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the swamp with Shen Lian.

…

Yuquan Fairy City.

In the quiet room on the third floor of Huicui Building, Shen Lian let out a long sigh.

Huicui Building is a large chamber of commerce, with Yuanying forces behind it.

After some inquiries, it turned out that this chamber of commerce did have some top-grade third-level spiritual objects, just a few pieces of ore.

The largest one was only the size of a fist, so small that even a pair of shorts couldn't cover Ading's body.

As for other things such as animal skins, spiritual ink, and spiritual medicine, they were simply gone.

The best elixir in the business is a bottle of third-grade, mid-quality Yuanyang Qi-boosting Pill, which is a pill for daily practice by mid-stage Jindan cultivators, and it is of inferior quality.

How could this not make Shen Lian sigh.

After advancing to the Great Perfection of Golden Elixir, subsequent practice of exercises and anode-type spiritual objects need to be put on the agenda.

But the resource reserves of this large chain of commerce made Shen Lian a little unconfident. Is this still the prosperous Central Continent? Canglan Mountain is still better.

"Fellow Daoist, you may not know that Canglan Mountain has been in turmoil recently, and some spiritual medicines and resources related to monsters cannot be sent out."

The Jindan cultivator who received Shen Lian in Huicui Tower sighed softly.

"I heard that even several Nascent Soul ancestors have perished, and the situation has not stopped yet. Our Yuquan Immortal City is close to Canglan Mountain, so how can it not be affected?"

For a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, a distance of hundreds of thousands of miles is really too close.

After leaving Huicui Building, Shen Lian took a walk around the city and soon found out what had happened in Canglan Mountain.

When he was in seclusion to achieve the Golden Core Perfection, Canglan Mountain was bustling with activity, and it is still very busy now.

"It can't be because of me."

Shen Lian murmured, but this is a bit nonsense.

How could a spiritual barrier that could barely be considered a quasi-fourth-level barrier cause such a big commotion? Who would believe this?

He didn't really believe it anyway.

With a thought, he took out the Canglan Order from the sealed box in the storage ring.

"Infant Formation Pill, 10,000 Canglan Points."

"Yangdong Taiguang Stone, 18,000 Canglan Points."

"Fourth-level Purple Thunder Meteorite Jade, twenty-six thousand Canglan points."

…

"Xuan Yin Ming Ling Shui, twenty-three thousand Cang Lan points."

"Xuan Yang True Phoenix Flower, thirty thousand Cang Lan points."

…

A series of information appeared in Shen Lian's perception.

Suddenly, his expression froze.

wrong.

There is a lot of information in the Canglan Order, but these spiritual objects are really to his liking.

In addition, as for the Infant-Forming Pill, Canglan’s points were not quite right, and the price he asked was too cheap.

The positive pole Tai Guang Stone corresponds to the negative pole Ghost Stone he exchanged.

In addition, the two spiritual creatures Xuanyin and Xuanyang are spiritual creatures that are opposites of yin and yang.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Lian still felt that this was most likely a spiritual object specially provided for him.

After all, this kind of thing had been done many times before in Canglan Mountain.

He exchanged the Dragon Marrow Phoenix Yang Pill from Canglan Mountain, so wouldn't he need the Infant Forming Pill to advance to the Nascent Soul stage? To advance from the Golden Core to the Nascent Soul stage, even a cultivator with the highest talent couldn't say he was 100% sure, so it would be great to have an Infant Forming Pill ready.

"Canglan Mountain... a place of trouble."

After sensing the spiritual object information in the Canglan Order again, Shen Lian let out a long sigh.

Canglan Mountain saw that he had solved the quasi-fourth-level spiritual restriction and wanted to seduce him to continue working in Canglan Mountain.

"work to earn a living?"

Shen Lian groaned softly.

He has reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core, and is the number one person below the Nascent Soul. There should be no problem with this title.

How can I work?

It is not advisable to stay for long in a place full of disputes.

No matter what the fight in Canglan Mountain was about, it had nothing to do with him.

The Tiannan Continent is so big, I don’t believe that only Canglan Mountain can provide spiritual objects.

At worst, I can run away to other parts of the world.

With Shen Lian's current strength, he is barely qualified to cross the continent.

A spiritual ship flew out from Yuquan Fairy City and headed northwest.

Before leaving, Shen Lian prepared to go to the Puppet Machine Sect.

This is the sect where the Puppet Master, who is a top-grade third-rank puppeteer, belongs. This old guy has bad luck and repeatedly fails to pass the assessment of Canglan Mountain.

It is said that he was seriously injured in the last assessment, and I don’t know whether he has passed away or not.

As an upright male cultivator in the world of immortal cultivation, he did not go there to copy other sects' foundation.

He was trying to save people from danger.

For the sake of the sect, Master Kuiji risked his life before his death. It is worth seeing if he can be accepted into the Butian Sect.

He has what the puppet wants.

Of course, the prerequisite is to see whether the Puppet Machine Sect has the potential and is worth his investment.

…

No more!

However, the result came out before Shen Lian arrived at the Kuiji Sect.

It’s not that the Kuiji Sect is not worth investing in, but that the Kuiji Sect is completely destroyed.

The sect's headquarters was in ruins, even the stones were cracked in two by the fire.

The destruction of the Guiji Sect happened to be a few years before he went into seclusion.

Afterwards, Shen Lian did not even go to the headquarters of the Puppet Machine Sect. He directly activated various escape techniques and moved away from the area where the Puppet Machine Sect was located.

Two months later.

In a seemingly small forest, there lives a group of mountain monkeys, chirping and playing in the forest all day long.

In a corner outside the forest, Shen Lian’s head popped out.

At the same time, a monkey was jumping and hopping through the forest, grabbing branches and swinging them every two steps, and even hitting other monkeys with peaches.

This angered the monkey that was beaten, and a group of monkeys picked up stones and threw them at him.

This made the monkey, who had just been showing off, scream in pain, but this scene did not last long, and the original fight turned into a big melee.

Just like that, a group of mountain monkeys started a chase all over the mountains.

Three more days passed.

A low-level monk from a small town outside the mountain entered the mountain and captured several mountain monkeys after a fierce fight. When he returned to the town, he was bought by a fellow Taoist who ordered monkey brains.

In the hotel in town.

The stove was burning, the chef sharpened the ox-head knife until it was shiny, pushed the small cart with the mountain monkey embedded in it, and walked into the box.

"Uncle, do you want to do it yourself, or do you want me to help you open the hole?"

The two monks sitting in the box, one with a sallow face and the other with a droopy donkey face, became unhappy when they heard the chef speak like this.

"How can you talk like that? Who are you talking to?"

"Do you believe that I'll open the lid for you first?"

"I'm sorry, sir. It's my mouth that's the culprit."

As he said this, the chef slapped himself in the face.

"Okay, Brother Liu, let's come to eat."

The sallow-faced monk waved his hand, signaling the chef to go down and let them do it themselves.

"Look, Brother Liu, this little monkey is crying."

"Tsk tsk, it seems quite psychic."

The two monks found the crying monkey very amusing and did not open its head again.

"Just play with it and eat it whenever you want."

The meal lasted for more than a month before the two of them staggered out of the town, holding the little monkey in their arms.

Under the cover of night, the two figures were stretched out very long, and in a dim area, they gradually merged into one figure and disappeared.

…

Inside the cave.

The little monkey just now let out a frightened cry and buried its entire head in the soil.

Shen Lian ignored it and grabbed a few specially made photo-taking beads from it.

This little monkey was the one that had been causing trouble among the mountain monkeys before. Of course, it was causing trouble because Shen Lian possessed it with his divine consciousness.

The area where the mountain monkey was located was exactly where he fell when he was riding the Canglan Mountain teleportation array.

The old fox demon said at the time that there might be danger.

Shen Lian is very willing to listen to advice.

Black-horned ants were left behind where the stone fell, but unfortunately, more than ten years have passed and the ants have long since died, leaving behind these scattered, stone-like photo stones.

The demise of the Puppet Machine Sect made Shen Lian run back immediately, and he took great pains to pick up the Image Stone, just to see if there was anyone following him.

The methods of the monks who have reached a high level of cultivation are too unpredictable, so he has to be on guard.

The divine sense sensed the image stone, and two scenes of mountains and forests inside flashed, and then a vague shadow emerged.

The shadow could be vaguely seen as a monk, who stayed in the area where he fell.

Unfortunately, the scene was fleeting and the restriction in the photo stone was broken.

Shen Lian crushed the image stone, his eyes turned slightly cold.

He didn't believe that a monk would appear exactly where he fell.

This trick is correct, but we still need to improve the photo stone in the future.

Why could a cultivator appear where he fell? It’s very simple. There was a fluctuation in space at that time, combined with the strange phenomenon that Canglan Mountain was transmitting at that time.

Maybe the monks didn't know where he had fallen at the time, but there would definitely be monks who could find him afterwards.

"I can't even get a stable job. What have I done to offend anyone?"

Shen Lian cursed.

"If you don't want me here, I'll find another place that will. If you don't want me to work, I'll start my own business."

After mumbling something, Shen Lian immediately decided to run away overnight.

This wave of cultivators who came to target Canglan Mountain were quite ruthless. They even wiped out the entire clan of cultivators from the periphery who had not passed the assessment of Canglan Mountain. As someone who possessed the Canglan Order No. 113, he was designated to give special treatment to those cultivators.

ran away.

ran away.
