Chapter 1022: Chapter 1022: Invincible Transmission, Fortune Follows Misfortune
Miao Chen’s words left Miao Jin silent.
A moment later, Miao Chen spoke firmly: "It’s already been many years since we passed our First Thunder Tribulation. Even for me, wanting to pass the Second Thunder Tribulation is nearly impossible! Now that such an opportunity is right in front of us, we cannot miss it!"
She looked at Miao Jin with a gaze she’d never had before and said, "At worst, it’s only death!"
A strange light flashed through Miao Jin’s eyes. She chuckled lightly and said, "Well said, at worst, it’s only death!"
With that, the two Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors of Jinchen Holy Land no longer hesitated and flew toward the Earth Blessed Land!
"Daoist friend Miao Chen, Daoist friend Miao Jin, you two are this..."
For some reason, seeing Miao Chen and Miao Jin fly toward the Earth Blessed Land made Ancestor Ling Bo’s heart suddenly lurch!
Miao Chen curled her lips and laughed softly: "Miao Jin, did you see that? This is the respect that strength brings. Before, this old fellow called us by name directly, but now he addresses us as Daoist friends!"
Ancestor Ling Bo was extremely embarrassed.
Ancestor Miao Jin’s expression suddenly shifted; the look she cast at Ancestor Ling Bo carried a few more shades of danger.
Ancestor Ling Bo seemed to have been provoked; he turned into a streak of lightning, flying several hundred miles away in an instant, with even a tendency to flee immediately!
Only then did Miao Jin give up the intent to capture Ancestor Ling Bo and, together with Miao Chen, flew toward the Earth Blessed Land.
"May I trouble you to report this: from Jinchen Holy Land, Miao Chen and Miao Jin are willing to join the Earth Blessed Land!"
Miao Chen’s voice rang out again, echoing once more in the ears of everyone in the Earth Blessed Land!
This time, what she said caused quite a stir inside the Earth Blessed Land!
Miao Chen and Miao Jin were two Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors!
They belonged to the absolute peak of power in the Heavenly Realm!
Even though the people of the Earth Blessed Land had infinite trust in Lin Wudi, they never imagined that Heavenly Realm Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors would come to pledge allegiance to the Earth Blessed Land so soon!
In an instant, the slogans praising Lin Wudi as "invincible" rang out once more!
The three women, including Miao Yu, who had still been worrying just moments ago, immediately broke into radiant smiles.
Miao Yu even directly took to the air, flying toward her mother and the other woman.
At this moment, Shangguan Shiming arrived through the air, and her attitude had become much more respectful.
Just now, these two had been outside powerhouses; she had to clearly convey Lin Wudi’s attitude and could not let the Lord of the Blessed Land’s prestige be diminished.
Now, however, these two had already become Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors of the Earth Blessed Land!
"Sir is currently in seclusion. Here is the Jade Slip that Sir prepared for the two of you! Everything else will be discussed eight days later, after we have slain our great enemy!"
Shangguan Shiming handed each of them a Jade Slip.
The two took it and gave it a look—sure enough, it contained Thunder Tribulation Mental Command Techniques tailored specifically for the two of them!
Within it, there were a total of three forms!
The very first form already made both their eyes light up at the same time.
This first form was called "From Misfortune to Fortune," derived from the Sixty-Four Hexagrams. The lowest level took the Mountain-Water Meng Hexagram as its image, while the highest level fused all Sixty-Four Hexagrams into one!
Just this one form was enough to make the two women’s scalps tingle.
They faintly had a feeling that if they could fully master this first form, then even at the Second Stage of Tribulation, having passed two Heavenly Tribulations, they would still be able to fight!
"The Lord of the Blessed Land is truly generous. Is he not afraid that once we obtain this Cultivation Technique, we will immediately leave?"
Miao Chen gripped the Jade Slip tightly and asked in a low, solemn voice.
Shangguan Shiming smiled faintly. "If the two of you are so short-sighted as to choose to betray the Earth Blessed Land, then I can only say that it will be your loss!"
With that, Shangguan Shiming made a gesture of invitation. "The Invincible Palace has already prepared secluded cultivation quarters for the two of you within the Earth Blessed Land. In these eight days, please comprehend the three forms within this Jade Slip as quickly as possible!"
Miao Jin and Miao Chen both nodded and followed Shangguan Shiming away.
Outside the Earth Blessed Land, Ancestor Ling Bo watched this scene and was utterly baffled.
Miao Jin had clearly just displayed unparalleled strength not long ago, yet now the two of them had actually chosen to submit to the Earth Blessed Land?
Have these two women gone mad?
Ancestor Ling Bo truly could not understand!
Just then, a Sound Transmission Talisman at his waist suddenly vibrated.
"Hm? Renowned Swords actually returned to the Barbarian Continent?"
Ancestor Ling Bo was first pleasantly surprised, then frowned. "It hasn’t even been a year yet. He can’t possibly have broken through so quickly! Damn it! The bloodline of Renowned Swords Holy Land was slaughtered, and Renowned Swords’ state of mind has been affected!"
As a fellow Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor, Ancestor Ling Bo quickly guessed the truth!
"Earth Blessed Land, damn it!"
Ancestor Ling Bo cursed in his heart!
However, he no longer dared linger around the Earth Blessed Land.
Miao Jin was still fine; her Tribulation Thunder Thoughts were fewer than his, and her speed was not as fast as his.
Miao Chen’s Tribulation Thunder Thoughts, however, were more than his. If Miao Chen wanted to intercept him, he might have no chance of escape!
With a single thought, Ancestor Ling Bo’s figure suddenly vanished.
...
In the void only three days’ journey from the Earth Blessed Land, Priestess Shuiyue, Renowned Swords Ancestor, and Ni Moli all came to a halt.
Looking at the golden rain of blood falling from the sky and feeling the sorrow rising within their bodies, all three of them paled.
"Three! Three Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors have fallen!"
Priestess Shuiyue and Renowned Swords Ancestor looked even more shocked.
Because of the Heavenly Realm’s edicts, slaughter between Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors was extremely rare.
Even in the entire Heavenly Realm, the death of three Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors in a single day was something rarely seen in ten thousand years.
Yet now, in Tribulation Barbarian Continent, such a bizarre event had occurred—three Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors had fallen in an instant!
"I fear it’s no longer suitable for us to rush to the Earth Blessed Land now..."
Priestess Shuiyue spoke with a grave expression.
Though Renowned Swords Ancestor’s face looked ugly, he did not voice any objection.
Three Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors dying in an instant—what that implied was far too terrifying!
The Second Thunder Tribulation!
Only those who had passed the Second Thunder Tribulation possessed such power!
If there were Second Tribulation Powerhouses from other continents present at the Earth Blessed Land, then if they went, they would merely be walking to their deaths!
"Are we just going to give up like this?"
Ni Moli was somewhat dissatisfied; this was a rare, perfect opportunity for him to transcend his tribulation!
Priestess Shuiyue pondered for a moment and said, "I will immediately send word back to the clan and have them use a teleportation magical treasure to rendezvous with us as soon as possible!"
The Newly Promoted Blessed Land was far too important; she did not want to give it up!
Even if the other side had a Second Tribulation Ancestor, they still had to give it a try.
The key was that a Second Tribulation Ancestor slaughtering those of the First Thunder Tribulation would definitely attract the attention of the Heavenly Realm Guard Squad!
By then, once the Second Tribulation Ancestor was taken away by the Heavenly Realm Guard Squad, the Newly Promoted Blessed Land would become masterless!
"The Ni Family has other Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors coming as well?"
Renowned Swords slightly furrowed his brows; he felt that for just a Newly Promoted Blessed Land, such a big mobilization might be unnecessary.
Ni Moli looked toward Priestess Shuiyue.
Priestess Shuiyue considered for a moment and said, "Daoist friend Renowned Swords was not in the Barbarian Continent at the time, so you may not know this—the Lord of the Newly Promoted Blessed Land, when ascending with his world, passed the Ninth Thunder Tribulation!"
"What!"
Renowned Swords Ancestor instantly lost his composure.
He knew very well what the Ninth Thunder Tribulation signified: it meant the other party had a high chance of becoming Daoist Master Yellow Springs!
Compared to a Newly Promoted Holy Land, a Blessed Land Lord who had passed the Ninth Thunder Tribulation was the true treasure!
If one could refine the Lord of the Blessed Land and seize his fortune, one could gain the talent of a Daoist Master Yellow Springs!
Renowned Swords Ancestor couldn’t help looking toward Ni Moli beside him.
He finally understood why this Young Master of the Ni Clan had come.
It was not to use the Blessed Land to transcend his tribulation, but for the Ninth Thunder Tribulation itself!
Seeing Renowned Swords’ expression shift, Priestess Shuiyue laughed softly and said, "When seizing fortune, it’s best if the cultivator is of the same realm. At your current realm, Daoist friend Renowned Swords, even if you refined the Earth Realm Master, there wouldn’t be much fortune left."
