Unbeknownst to them, Shi Xuan was reborn into this body with the memories of a Nascent Soul.
When the original owner was killed by the Fan family father and daughter, they happened to take in her soul.
Fan Hongde set up a forbidden magic array, and after changing the spiritual roots of the two, he thought Shi Xuan was dead, so he ordered his subordinates to throw Shi Xuan off the back mountain.
Shi Xuan swore at that time that he would avenge the original owner in this lifetime.
Fan Hongde was already dead when the demonic cultivators were wiped out, but Fan Mingzhu escaped.
Now, Fan Mingzhu has fallen into Shi Xuan's hands in the most wretched way, and both of her enemies have been eliminated.
With his great revenge fulfilled, Shi Xuan felt a huge weight lifted from his heart, and his mind became much more open. Breaking through the bottleneck of the Void Refinement stage was the perfect opportunity for him.
This is double happiness for her.
He got his revenge and leveled up.
Shi Xuan quickly absorbed the remaining power of the demon seed. At this moment, the tribulation clouds in the sky began to gather.
Lin Daozi and Shi Mingxiu were very worried about the sudden lightning tribulation. Fearing that Shi Xuan was unprepared, they quickly took out some defensive magic artifacts and handed them to Shi Xuan, then retreated to a distance to protect her.
Shi Xuan accepted the teachers' concern, but had no intention of using it.
The clouds of calamity grew thicker and thicker, to the point that even the well-informed Lin Daozi and Shi Mingxiu were astonished.
They too had survived the Void Refining Tribulation, but they had never seen such a grand spectacle!
The oppressive aura emanating from the tribulation clouds, and the occasional flashes of lightning, all shimmered with a pitch-black hue; it was truly a terrifying tribulation they had never witnessed in their lives.
Shi Xuan showed no fear whatsoever. This time, she didn't even set up the defensive formation she usually used when undergoing tribulation.
The tribulation lightning had been brewing for a long time before the first bolt finally descended.
Unlike ordinary lightning tribulations, this first one was as thick as a water bucket.
It seems that this thunderbolt remembered Shi Xuan, and didn't even give her time to prepare or transition, immediately launching her into a difficult mode.
Shi Xuan didn't need any preparation or transition. Since fusing with the dragon bone in the void, coupled with the Chaos Spiritual Root, the lightning tribulation was no longer so terrifying for her.
Thinking back, each tribulation felt like walking on the edge of life and death. The current Shi Xuan will never be the same as before.
As expected, when the lightning bolt, as thick as a bucket, struck Shi Xuan, it did not cause him any real harm.
Shi Xuan just felt a jolt of electricity, and her whole body felt numb.
The two teachers who were watching her undergo her tribulation from afar felt a pang of anxiety in their hearts, and their expressions grew increasingly worried.
Shi Xuan warmed up by passing through several bolts of heavenly lightning before attempting to draw lightning into his body, just as he had done before, to temper the strength of his meridians.
She could now freely control the amount of lightning introduced into her body, and the entire process was risk-free except for the discomfort of being electrocuted.
After the thirty lightning tribulations passed, seeing Shi Xuan's relaxed appearance, Lin Daozi and Shi Mingxiu gradually relaxed as well. They then realized that even such terrifying heavenly lightning seemed to be helpless against Shi Xuan.
Shi Mingxiu smiled and shook his head, thinking to himself that it seemed he wasn't the only one helpless against this mischievous monkey; even the lightning tribulation of the Void Refinement stage was the same.
In this light, he felt much more comforted, at least he was accompanied by such a high-level heavenly lightning bolt...
Dark lightning bolts struck down, landing on Shi Xuan. Half of them were absorbed by her, and a portion was also drawn into her body to temper her meridians.
Looking at it this way, this tribulation of refining the void is like a reward for Shi Xuan, and a reward that requires no cost and only brings benefits.
Halfway through the strike, the lightning seemed to have become numb. No matter what, it would all have the same effect, so there was no excitement in striking.
So, with each strike, the power of the lightning steadily increased, but it didn't grow more and more furious as it had last time.
When the ninetieth heavenly lightning struck, Shi Xuan actually advanced a small step under the "nourishment" of the heavenly lightning, successfully entering the second level of the Void Refinement Realm!
Shi Xuan herself was quite surprised. After her advancement, the Chaos Spiritual Root seemed to have become even more powerful, absorbing spiritual energy more rapidly.
With the added power of the demonic seed, accompanied by heavenly lightning, she advanced to the next level.
Lin Daozi and Shi Mingxiu, who were watching her with concern from afar, were both stunned.
They knew their disciple was quite different, but they had never seen anyone so different!
Is she really undergoing the Refinement Tribulation? It looks like she's playing around! Even the Golden Core Tribulation isn't this simple!
Moreover, she advanced in rank before the lightning tribulation was even over! This is blatant disregard for heavenly lightning!
At this moment, Shi Mingxiu had only one thought: could he return the pile of magical artifacts he had just given her...?
Given Shi Xuan's consistent approach, it seems there's no hope.
Even if you don't give it to her, she'll still try to squeeze some out of you, let alone the fact that it's already in her pocket.
Shi Mingxiu realized that Shi Xuan's biggest hobby now was probably robbing him.
But... it seems their Lianfeng Sword Sect has truly taken in an extraordinary disciple...
The thick tribulation clouds were no longer surprised by her advancement during the tribulation process. They no longer showed their previous anger, but continued to strike methodically, each time increasing in intensity. Compared to their initial momentum, they could only be described as calm and undisturbed now.
It's like completing a routine task; after chopping a hundred lines, you call it a day and leave.
Even though this was a peaceful and uneventful Refinement Tribulation, it still lasted for three whole days.
After a hundred lightning strikes, the tribulation clouds paused, as if taking a good look at Shi Xuan, before gradually dissipating.
At this point, the threat of the tribulation clouds was gone, but this tribulation was only halfway through.
For those undergoing the Refinement of Void Tribulation, the Thunder Tribulation is just as dangerous as the Questioning of the Heart Tribulation.
For Shi Xuan, the Tribulation of Questioning the Heart is actually more terrifying.
As the tribulation clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, Shi Xuan felt an invisible force quietly descend upon her. Her consciousness gradually blurred, and her body seemed to be drawn by a mysterious force into an illusion.
Shi Xuan's consciousness was hazy, and he felt that it was an illusion, but it didn't really seem like one.
This situation has a kind of surreal quality, like a dream from which you can't wake up.
What appeared before Shi Xuan at this moment was a towering and majestic temple.
The temple appears ancient and imposing from the outside, exuding an air of mystery.
Shi Xuan pushed open the door and walked in. In the spacious hall, intricate inscriptions were engraved on all four sides.
In the very center of the hall, on the north wall, a bronze mirror stands out conspicuously.
Shi Xuan walked straight toward the mirror, stood in front of it, and looked into the mirror.
As she looked over, the mirror slowly cleared from its hazy state. Gradually, images began to appear within it.
From the moment Shi Xuan entered the western border of Qian Yuan, she recounted her entire journey in a memoir-like manner.
Even after she finished her Void Refinement Tribulation, it still didn't stop.
