135: Chapter 135 Green Snake Turns the Tide

Monk Silent Severity wanted to follow up with more damage, but a group of Nascent Souls surrounded him, leaving him no opportunity.

The twin swords were heavily damaged, and Li Xiaomo was severely injured.

The situation was settled.

Except for a green snake currently engaged in Artifact Refining?

But a mere little snake demon at the Early Golden Core stage?

Don't be ridiculous.

"amitabha..."

Silent Severity sighed a Buddhist prayer, his voice bitter.

Just a hair's breadth away; one move short.

"Great Art of Artifact Refining..."

The green snake didn't want this kind of ending.

Finding life in the midst of death had always been Xu Qing's forte!

"The Throw-Everything-In Technique!"

He slapped his left eye, and countless Materials and finished Spiritual Artifacts turned into a river overflowing with treasure light, surging toward that mountain peak.

These were treasures he had accumulated over an unknown period of time.

Their value left the Nascent Souls present stunned.

"In that case, let this Lightning Tribulation come even more fiercely!!!"

Xu Qing no longer cared.

Artifact Refining laws, Five Elements mutual restraint, material connections—he ignored them all.

The green snake would let this Lightning Tribulation descend fully to shatter those chains, even if it meant shattering the heaven-accepting gourd.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Lightning Tribulation erupted everywhere.

Dark clouds covered the sky.

Like heavenly wrath, endless thick bolts of lightning fell one after another.

The thunderous light was like silver liquid poured onto the mountain mass.

Five-colored treasure light flashed incessantly, with explosive sounds ringing in the ears; the entire mountain was covered in treasure light.

It could no longer be called Artifact Refining.

Even cooking pig swill in the mortal world wasn't this exaggerated.

Xu Qing's hands trembled uncontrollably; as his index fingers formed hand seals, blood continuously sprayed from his fingertips.

A crazed expression appeared on his beautiful face.

The Lightning Tribulation brewed more and more intensely, but Xu Qing did not stop.

The stronger the lightning, the better; his only fear was that it wouldn't be enough to break those chains!

"Crazy, this green snake is crazy!"

Profound Heart wanted to stop him; this couldn't go on!

"amitabha, marvelous snake, what a marvelous snake!"

"My Buddha is merciful. All living beings have their own karmic paths; today, I shall assist this snake in its karmic path!"

Silent Severity beckoned, and a golden tiger rushed before him, baring its teeth and showing its full ferocity!

"Monk, I respect your Bodhi Temple, but do not continue to be so stubborn here."

"amitabha, my Buddha is merciful..."

"Mercy, my ass!"

Profound Heart cursed loudly and swung a palm down.

Profound Heart and Mysterious Spirit led the other Cultivators around Silent Severity, charging toward Xu Qing.

"All of you, come to this poor monk!"

"My Buddha Ming Wang True Body!"

The tiger roared and transformed into a zen staff standing before Silent Severity.

Silent Severity formed hand seals and slapped the staff's body, its golden rings chiming incessantly.

Buddhist light pierced the heavens as a hundred-zhang-tall Buddha statue descended into the world.

It glared with wrathful eyes, its face terrifying.

On the left and right sides of its front face, two more faces grew; among its six arms, two held whips, two held rings, and two held willow branches.

The willow branches extended, growing and connecting from both hands to form a willow ring, binding this part of the world.

The two whips held by the highest arms of the Buddha statue lashed down repeatedly, tearing through the air and ripping open the earth.

"Damn it, this bald donkey!"

Profound Heart and the others cast spells to resist.

Although the Ming Wang True Body was powerful, it was clearly no match for the group of Cultivators and could only barely trap them for a short time.

And during the time the Ming Wang held them...

The Lightning Tribulation became increasingly terrifying.

Lightning fell like pillars, the sound shaking the heavens—a portrait of Hell itself.

"I can't hold on much longer. It should be about finished on the Green Snake Benefactor's side."

The Ming Wang was finally broken through by Profound Heart and the others, dissipating into Buddhist light.

Bursting out, Profound Heart looked at the center of the Lightning Tribulation, his mouth twitching.

The current power of that Lightning Tribulation made even them feel a sense of dread.

And that green snake is currently closest to the Lightning Tribulation; how could it not be struck dead? How could...

Eh?

Where's the green snake?

Where did such a big green snake go?

Turned to ash by the lightning?

The green snake had already hidden in the Boundary of Life and Death, secretly tearing a slit to peek at the live broadcast.

With the Lightning Tribulation this terrifying, how could he possibly stay outside!

Countless treasures turned into liquid under the Lightning Tribulation, merging into that mountain peak.

Cracks appeared on the heaven-accepting gourd under the thunderous light, and creation fluid continuously seeped out from the fissures.

It looked like it wouldn't hold on for much longer.

*Crack!*

The chains were finally split open by the Lightning Tribulation.

A chill ran through the hearts of Profound Heart and the other Cultivators.

Xu Qing unhesitatingly leaped out of the Boundary of Life and Death, the heaven-accepting gourd atop his head, as endless Yin Qi and Death Qi enveloped him to resist the lightning.

It was because he had refined the mountain carved from this Floating Island into the heaven-accepting gourd that the Lightning Tribulation had been drawn here.

By activating the heaven-accepting gourd now, all the lightning was naturally attracted to it.

More and more cracks appeared on the heaven-accepting gourd, and even several fragments fell off.

Once the heaven-accepting gourd shattered, the endless thunderous light would instantly turn Xu Qing to ash.

He couldn't hold on for long.

The deity transformation imprint was currently closest to him!

But Profound Heart and the others also reacted, charging toward the deity transformation imprint despite the soul-shaking Lightning Tribulation.

Somewhere on the ground.

A fragment of a broken sword rose from the earth, pointing toward Xu Qing and gathering an infinite sword light.

[Obtained Skill: Sword Evasion Lv.8 (00:00:09)]

"xi liang!"

Xu Qing spat out the Xiliang Sword, which instantly performed Sword Evasion on its own, carrying him.

An unprecedented speed; the surrounding scenery receded rapidly.

Reaching out, he grabbed the small tripod with one hand.

"Got it!"

Xu Qing felt a surge of joy, but an aura of death loomed over him.

Profound Heart was already within reach, preparing to strike with a palm!

He would die instantly!

*Buzz!*

At that moment, a sword hummed, and under the sound, the Xiliang Sword erupted with sword light, enveloping Xu Qing and shooting him toward the ground.

The sword body shone brilliantly with green light as cracks spread across it.

*Boom!*

A small green mushroom cloud rose.

Without hesitation, it resolutely performed a Self-Destruct.

The Self-Destruct of his natal spirit artifact caused Xu Qing to cough up a mouthful of blood.

But he merely wiped the blood from his mouth, ignoring the pain.

"As expected of my xi liang, you've truly mastered my legacy!"

At the moment of the Self-Destruct, the skill Indestructible activated.

A dim, transparent small sword re-condensed within the Golden Core in his abdomen.

Meanwhile, Xu Qing gripped the tripod-shaped deity transformation imprint and slapped it toward the purple jade in his arms.

The imprint sank into the purple jade, merging into Daya's chest.

Daya's beautiful eyelashes fluttered.

She opened her eyes.

Ten years of Dao Cultivation, a hundred years of Dao Cultivation, a thousand years of Dao Cultivation, and five thousand years of Dao Cultivation condensed in an instant.

"Die!!"

The Self-Destruct of the Xiliang Sword didn't cause Profound Heart even a bit of damage; it only delayed him for a breath before he charged over and smashed a palm toward Xu Qing.

Before the palm even arrived, Xu Qing felt like he was about to die.

*Crack.*

At the critical moment, the purple jade in his hand shattered.

A small hand reached out from within, easily blocking the descending palm.

"This snake is not something you can touch."

Profound Heart, filled with doubt and unease, heard a familiar voice.

Dressed in a white gown, with black hair like a waterfall and features as beautiful as a painting, she was breathtakingly gorgeous.

It was indeed the adult version of Daya!
