Chapter 439: Chapter 265: Cultivation World 55 (Part 2)
Si Lingle’s eyes flashed with cold light, and the Nine Heavens Annihilation Sword in her hand suddenly burst forth with dazzling thunder light.
Before the sword edge moved, the Sword Intent had already arrived—Thunder Sword Intent, like the heavenly thunder punishment, instantly tore through the shopkeeper’s defenses.
The shopkeeper showed a look of horror, hurriedly activating a secret technique, his figure transforming into countless afterimages in an attempt to escape.
"Space-Time Domain!" Si Lingle coldly shouted, and the space within ten feet suddenly solidified. The shopkeeper’s afterimages seemed frozen, suspended in mid-air. The Thunder Sword Intent weaved through them like a wandering dragon, each sword light precisely hitting the shopkeeper’s true body.
The shopkeeper’s entire body was charred black, kneeling on the ground, eyes full of disbelief: "You... have actually comprehended the Space-Time Domain..."
Si Lingle sheathed her sword, said indifferently, "A puppet is always just a puppet." She waved her hand, and the seven crystal nails on the shopkeeper’s Heavenly Spirit Cover shattered with a sound, turning into starlight and dissipating.
Si Lingle killed the shopkeeper and obtained the Nine Netherworld Lotus, which she placed inside the nanomaterials.
The Nine Nether Cold Qi on her body was removed by the Nine Netherworld Strange Fire, making it impossible for the black market to trace her.
Si Lingle tidied up the battlefield to ensure there were no issues before returning to the inn.
The black market investigated for more than half a month but found nothing, forcing them to abandon the blockade.
As soon as the blockade was lifted, Si Lingle left.
She had already spent a high price to acquire the map of the Daluo Lower Realm and knew the direction of the Cultivation World.
She piloted the Spirit Ship towards the Cultivation World.
Arriving in the Cultivation World, Si Lingle took out the Sound Transmission Talismans given by Yan Li and Lan Xin to contact them.
Without recovery from Yan Li for the time being, she received a reply from Lan Xin.
Si Lingle went to Anping City of the Sky Dragon Sect.
However, upon seeing Lan Xin, Si Lingle frowned, "Why has your cultivation fallen to the Nascent Soul Stage!"
When they first met in the Heavenly Palace, Lan Xin’s cultivation was at the Soul Emergence Stage, while she was only at the late-stage Nascent Soul.
After these hundreds of years, given Lan Xin’s single spirit root, she should have at least pierced through the Void Refinement Realm, if not at least reached the late-stage Divinity Transformation.
Lan Xin smiled bitterly: "My family arranged a fiancé for me since childhood."
"The fiancé is a single metal spirit root."
"After returning from the Heavenly Palace, the family planned for me to become dual cultivation partners with the fiancé."
"But unexpectedly, he called off the engagement, wanting to annul the engagement."
"The reason for the annulment is that he sided with the daughter of the Divine Palace Sect Master. My family could not contend with the Divine Palace’s power, so they had to annul the engagement."
"But the daughter of the Divine Palace Sect Master was still displeased, dissatisfied with the fact that I had an engagement with Wen Lin. While I was training, she sent three Soul Emergence Stage cultivators to ambush me."
"Although I escaped, I was seriously injured and was also inflicted with the Erosion Infant Soul Poison."
This deadly poison can corrode the Nascent Soul, and her family, not wanting to offend the Divine King Palace, expelled her from the family.
As for her sect, due to her drop in cultivation, she was no longer a direct disciple.
Just an inner sect disciple.
To suppress the injuries, she used all the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures she gained during her training on healing herself.
The Divine King Palace is the third biggest major sect in the Daluo Lower Realm, and Lan Xin’s Sky Dragon Sect is only a medium-sized sect.
Therefore, Lan Xin’s family dared not offend the Divine King Palace.
"Let’s go to your place, I’ll heal and detoxify you." She had the Nine Netherworld Strange Fire and the Green Life Source Immortal Pill, capable of neutralizing all poisons.
After reaching Lan Xin’s residence, Si Lingle took out the Green Life Source Immortal Pill for Lan Xin to consume.
Then she deployed the Nine Netherworld Strange Fire to expel the Erosion Infant Soul Poison from her.
After three hours, Lan Xin’s poison was completely cleared.
"Take these items for cultivation, and first restore your cultivation to the Soul Emergence Stage."
"Once recovered, we’ll train together," Si Lingle said, "As for your vengeance, when your cultivation is high, there will be opportunities in the future."
Lan Xin’s eyes were slightly red, "Yun Hua, having a friend like you in this life is enough for me."
"Alright, stop being sentimental, go cultivate quickly."
"Alright," Lan Xin nodded and went into closed-door cultivation practice.
Si Lingle, on the other hand, went to understand the Daluo Lower Realm, discovering that the communication jades here lacked video and other functionalities.
Si Lingle thought, the business opportunity has come.
However, it would be best to find a major sect to collaborate with.
The strongest sect in the Daluo Lower Realm is the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect.
The founding ancestor of the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect, Shanyou, possessed the Wind and Thunder Spirit Root and created the Wind and Thunder Sword Technique, and later founded the sect, naming it the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect.
The Wind and Thunder Sword Sect already has a history of over forty thousand years.
Half a month later, Si Lingle arrived at Mirror City of the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect.
She directly went to the Wind Thunder Tower, a store operated by the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect.
