The sky and the earth changed color, and thunder surged in the dark clouds, striking Qin Shu with a loud bang.
“Boom!”
“Boom! Boom—!”
Thunder tribulations came one after another, each one more dangerous than the last.
There was a loud bang!
Another thunderbolt with the power to destroy the world suddenly struck.
Qin Shu's clothes were torn in the formation, and her fair skin was covered with charred lightning marks. The Nascent Soul in her body was about to take shape, but it was suppressed by the heavenly tribulation, as if it would be completely crushed in the next second.
Seeing that the mid-stage thunder tribulation was threatening to smash Qin Shu into pieces, Venerable Qingming released his grip on Xie Lanzhi's wrist.
"You should make preparations." Venerable Qing Ming warned worriedly: "Remember, don't let Ah Shu give up unless it is absolutely necessary."
Xie Lanzhi looked up and saw lightning bolts as thick as bowls tearing through the sky.
Qin Shu was in the formation, her body was shaking and blood was flowing from the corner of her mouth.
Xie Lanzhi said in a deep voice: "Ashu's life is the most important thing in everything!"
"roar--"
When another purple lightning strikes, a dragon roar resounds through the sky, and a golden dragon emitting golden light breaks through the clouds and hovers above Qin Shu's head.
"Ashu, here I come!" Jin Long spoke in human language, his voice filled with unquestionable firmness and a sense of security.
The dragon's body suddenly unfolded, covering Qin Shu.
This time, the thunder did not fall on Qin Shu, but hit the scaly golden dragon hard.
The heavenly tribulation seemed to be enraged, and three thunder tribulations struck down in succession, causing the golden dragon's scales to fly and dragon blood to fall like rain.
The mighty and domineering golden dragon was severely injured, but it still protected Qin Shu firmly. The dragon's tail rolled up her petite body, preventing the thunder from getting close to it.
Qin Shu opened her tightly closed eyes slightly and saw the scars on Jin Long's body getting deeper and deeper. Tears instantly blurred her vision.
She could feel that every lightning strike that hit the golden dragon was consuming Xie Lanzhi's original power.
She choked with sobs and said, "No... I don't want you to do this..."
"It's a rare opportunity to form a baby, just focus on your breakthrough." Jin Long's low and gentle voice was a bit soothing: "I am willing to protect you through the tribulation."
Qin Shu watched helplessly as the thunderbolt struck the golden dragon, tearing its skin and flesh apart.
She knew she couldn't waste any more time, so she endured the pain in her heart and tried her best to overcome the calamity.
Under the desperate protection of the golden dragon, Qin Shu finally broke free from the shackles. Brilliant golden light burst out from her body, colliding violently with the calamity clouds in the sky.
“Boom!”
As the last thunderbolt dissipated, Qin Shu's Nascent Soul was formed.
The golden dragon that was guarding her lost its breath, turned into a human form and fell to the ground.
Qin Shu ran over, hugged Xie Lanzhi tightly, and burst into tears: "Brother Lan——"
Xie Lanzhi weakly raised his hand and wiped away the tears from her eyes: "I'm fine, congratulations to Ah Shu for successfully conceiving a baby."
Qin Shu lay in the man's arms, crying out of breath: "Why are you trying so hard? You scared me to death!"
Venerable Qing Ming and his men stepped forward and said, "You are already in the Nascent Soul stage, why are you crying so much? You don't have the aura of a Nascent Soul ancestor at all!"
Qin Shu raised her head and stared at the Qingming Master with red eyes: "Don't talk!"
Wuweizi looked at Xie Lanzhi who was covered in blood and said, "Ah Shu, Lanzhi is seriously injured. You should take him to the Xumi mustard seed to recuperate. He has the body of a golden dragon and will be fine in ten days or half a month."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Qin Shu disappeared on the spot holding Xie Lanzhi.
"How come the Qin family has a husband-loving mad demon!" Venerable Qing Ming asked angrily, "Are you sure she is from our Qin family?"
Wuweizi touched the tip of his nose and said guiltily: "Xie Lanzhi really loves Ah Shu and treats her like a child. Ah Shu is a grateful child, which is why she loves him so deeply."
Qin Baixuan also said: "When Xie Lanzhi attacked, Ah Shu could still hold on for another ten thunder tribulations. Xie Lanzhi would not fail to see that he really cared about Ah Shu."
Venerable Qingming was speechless, as he could not understand how much Qin Shu valued Xie Lanzhi.
"Ah Shu has already successfully formed a fetus, so we won't hold the fetus formation ceremony. In the next ten years, let her work hard to reach the state of spiritual transformation and strive to break through to the Mahayana stage as soon as possible!"
"..." Wuweizi.
“……”Qin Baixuan.
The father and son were dumbfounded. Ah Shu had just formed her infant and she was already striving for the Spiritual Transformation. Was she really in such a hurry? !
Mount Sumeru in a mustard seed.
Qin Shu helped Xie Lanzhi lie down on the bed and searched through the boxes for a healing elixir.
"Brother Lan, open your mouth and the pain will go away after taking the medicine!"
Xie Lanzhi obediently opened his mouth and ate a handful of pills that exuded spiritual energy.
Qin Shu kicked off her shoes, knelt down beside Xie Lanzhi, and carefully stripped off his clothes that were charred by lightning.
Xie Lanzhi looked at her as if she was facing a formidable enemy, and said in a relaxed tone: "After three years, Ah Shu is still so fond of crying."
Qin Shu ignored him and took off her clothes with trembling hands, revealing deep wounds that could be seen to the bone.
She sniffed and said distressedly: "How painful it must be——"
Xie Lanzhi lowered his eyes to look at the scars on his body, wanting to circulate the original power in his body to heal them, but he found that his spiritual power was exhausted. Not to mention recovering from his injuries, even breathing caused a slight pain in his heart.
Qin Shu dipped her fingertips into the ointment and gently applied it on the hideous scars.
Her voice was muffled and pleading: "Brother Lan, when your injury is healed, we will leave and never come here again."
Xie Lanzhi did not say anything, staring at Qin Shu with his gentle and beautiful golden eyes. He saw a tear fall from her eye and drip onto his naked chest.
The heat from that tear seemed to burn Xie Lanzhi.
Qin Shu didn't get a response, and her eyelashes, wet with tears, trembled slightly.
After she finished applying the ointment, Xie Lanzhi took her into his arms and kissed Qin Shu's tearful eyes.
He comforted her softly, "Ah Shu, don't be sad, my injury is not fatal."
"But I feel bad. Seeing the injuries on your body, my heart aches."
Qin Shu didn't dare to lean on Xie Lanzhi, and her head rested lightly on the man's uninjured shoulder.
Xie Lanzhi rubbed Qin Shu's hair and said in a hoarse voice: "Seeing you being struck by lightning and covered in blood, I feel even more distressed for you. My Ah Shu is so afraid of pain, and your body is so petite and weak. The pain of lightning striking you is felt in my heart. I would rather get hurt myself than let you suffer even the slightest pain."
Qin Shu groped and touched Xie Lanzhi's hand, interlocking their fingers.
"Brother Lan, can we leave here?"
This time, Xie Lanzhi responded: "Okay, when I recover, we'll go home together."
"Um!"
Qin Shu nodded vigorously, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
The world of cultivation is too dangerous.
Since arriving here, I have either been on my way to a fight or been picked on and have to fight to protect myself.
Qin Shu missed the stable life in this world. Even if she had to go through some fighting, she would not be on the verge of death every time.
For the next half month, Qin Shu and Xie Lanzhi stayed inseparable.
After Qin Shu suffered the thunder tribulation, the injuries on both of them healed within a few days.
But the bloody image of Xie Lanzhi kept flashing through Qin Shu's mind. She insisted on recuperating for half a month before taking Xie Lanzhi away from Xumi Mustard Seed.
As soon as the two appeared, they were surrounded by a group of people.
Venerable Qing Ming: "You finally came out, girl!"
Wuweizi: "How is Lanzhi's condition?"
Qin Baixuan: "Ashu, are you okay?"
Xue Chen, Fan Cang, Hua Qingxuan: "Congratulations to Brother Qin for forming a baby!"
"I'm fine, and Brother Lan is fine too." Qin Shu nodded to the Qin family, then looked at Xue Chen and the other two: "Thank you——"
When her gaze fell on Hua Qingxuan, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Friend Hua, have you conceived a baby?"
Hua Qingxuan glanced at Xue Chen and said with a sweet smile: "I was able to successfully form a baby two years ago, thanks to Xue Chen who gave me a Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Liquid Pill."
Back then, Qin Shu not only gave Fan Cang three Ten Thousand Year Spirit Liquid Pills, but Xue Chen also received the same treatment.
Qin Shu heard this and smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations!"
Venerable Qingming walked forward, held Qin Shu's wrist, and the spiritual power injected in his hand flowed into Qin Shu's body.
"Not bad, you have laid a solid foundation. You can go and gain experience next."
Qin Shu asked doubtfully: "Experience? Where to practice?"
Venerable Qing Ming said, "Many high-level monsters have appeared in the Misty Forest recently. You can go to the outskirts to hunt monsters. While improving your cultivation, you can also accumulate combat experience so that you won't be less murderous when fighting with others in the future."
Qin Shu narrowed her eyes slightly, an idea popped into her mind, and she subconsciously looked at Xie Lanzhi beside her.
With just a glance, they thought of the same thing.
Go out and gain experience, a great opportunity to get away!
In the next few days, Qin Shu, Xie Lanzhi, and Xue Chen, together with their fellow practitioners from Linglong Dan Pavilion, began to prepare to go down the mountain for training.
The day before departure, Qin Shu found Qin Baixuan to inquire about the news.
As for why I didn’t look for Venerable Qingming and Wuweizi, it’s because those two are old foxes.
"Father, I want to ask you something." Qin Shu went straight to the point when she saw him.
Qin Baixuan froze, suspecting that he was hallucinating.
Otherwise, how could he hear Qin Shu calling him father!
Qin Baixuan took a deep breath, stared at Qin Shu with burning eyes, and asked in a trembling voice,
"Ah Shu, what did you just yell at me for?"
Qin Shu showed an unnatural look on her face, but she said gently: "Father——"
"well!"
Qin Baixuan's handsome face broke into a bright smile, and he was a little dizzy with excitement.
He stared at Qin Shu and asked eagerly, "What did you say you wanted to ask me?"
Qin Shu lowered her eyes and asked without any emotion: "I want to know, where is the teleportation formation channel between the Eastern Continent and the present world? Why was I teleported to Lingyun Country? If Xue Chen and the others want to go back to Lingyun Country, do they not need to wait for the Endless Sea to open the formation after a hundred years? Can they go back through the formation on land?"
When Qin Baixuan heard Qin Shu's first words, a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.
When the topic turned to Xue Chen, the emotion in his eyes quickly dissipated: "Xue Chen and the others want to return to Lingyun Country?"
Qin Shu nodded and said, "I do have this idea. After all, they have been away from home for several years and they have been missing home for a long time.
Qin Baixuan believed it and told Qin Shu the location of the formation connecting the world of cultivation and the real world without any precautions.
