Chapter 1785: Chapter 1785: Whoever Makes My Woman Suffer, I’ll Make Them Pay!
While Fang Bai was fully immersed in cultivation within the underground stone chamber, the hundreds of thousands of Thunder Tribulation Experts on the surface also entered a cultivation state, each comprehending the runes on the stone tablet.
These Thunder Tribulation Experts possessed remarkable talents, among them were astonishing cultivation prodigies.
Thus, during the eighty-one days that the Immortal Tablet Secret Realm was open, clouds of tribulation continued to form above the valley, thunder roared, lightning descended, and one expert after another broke through.
As these Thunder Tribulation Experts advanced, intense auras emanated from their bodies, swirling through the valley, causing the entire valley to tremble intermittently.
Those breaking through danced with joy, unable to contain themselves.
Meanwhile, those who had not advanced could not help but feel disheartened and frustrated, their minds unsettled.
Fang Yun, Baili Mingyue, Niu Ben, and Xiong Yingxiong, seated cross-legged at the corner of the valley, benefited from Fang Bai’s earlier guidance, so much so that the runes Fang Bai had left behind, considered incomprehensible by others, were simple in their eyes.
Among the hundreds of thousands of experts in the valley, the four understood the runes the most profoundly, and were the first to advance.
However, the four had only recently advanced to the Thunder Tribulation Realm, and their realms had just stabilized, advancing from first to second-stage Thunder Tribulation.
If others knew of this advancement speed, they would certainly find it incredible.
As for the disciples of the Fire Cloud Sect, their harvest this time was not significant. Seeing that most of the days the Immortal Tablet Secret Realm was open had passed without any disciples advancing left Sect Master Qin Ming anxious and deeply disappointed.
Qin Ming himself also had some comprehension of the runes, but his cultivation level was already high, thus relying on this journey to the Immortal Tablet Secret Realm to achieve advancement was not easy.
However, with this comprehension as a foundation, there was now hope for him to advance to the fifth-stage Thunder Tribulation Realm someday.
On the eightieth day of the Immortal Tablet Secret Realm opening, suddenly an astonishingly strong aura surged from the depths of the earth.
The impact of this astonishing aura from the depths caused the entire valley to seem as if experiencing a powerful earthquake; the ground trembled, peaks shook, boulders rolled down, creating a terrifying scene.
The hundreds of thousands of Thunder Tribulation Experts, immersed in cultivation, were startled, breaking out of their cultivation states, eager to see who had caused such a massive commotion during their advancement.
"Where did Fang Bai go?"
Baili Mingyue gazed around, not seeing a trace of Fang Bai, asking curiously.
Fang Yun, Niu Ben, Xiong Yingxiong, and Qin Ming also scanned the valley, searching for any sign of Fang Bai.
"I’m here!"
A moment later, Fang Bai’s figure appeared like a spectre before Baili Mingyue and the others, a familiar smile on his face.
"Little brother, where did you go earlier? You worried us!"
Seeing Fang Bai appear safe and sound, Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
Fang Bai laughed, "I broke through ahead of you, so with nothing else to do, I wandered around."
Qin Ming’s gaze landed on Fang Bai, noticing his cultivation level was indeed at the second-stage Thunder Tribulation Realm. Observing Fang Yun, Baili Mingyue, Niu Ben, and Xiong Yingxiong, who also became second-stage Thunder Tribulation experts, he lamented about the Fire Cloud Sect disciples not advancing, attributing it to their missed opportunities, shaking his head with a bitter smile.
Seeing Qin Ming with a forlorn expression, Fang Bai said with a smile, "Sect Master Qin, don’t worry, there’s still one day until the Immortal Tablet Secret Realm closes!"
Qin Ming sighed, "There’s been no movement for eighty days, hoping to advance on the last day would require a miracle!"
Fang Bai said, "Perhaps a miracle might happen?"
Qin Ming replied dispiritedly, "Let’s hope so!"
Fang Bai instructed Fang Yun, Baili Mingyue, and the others to continue their cross-legged cultivation to stabilize their realms, then shifted his gaze toward Su Linglong, noticing the fluctuation of spiritual energy around her, indicating she had also advanced.
Su Linglong sensed Fang Bai’s gaze, opened her beautiful eyes, noticed the disciples of Love Severing Tower beside her still in cultivation, and quickly glanced toward Fang Bai.
Their eyes met, Fang Bai winked at Su Linglong, his lips moved silently saying something, then his figure shifted, standing behind a tall boulder.
Su Linglong glanced around cautiously, stood up, and in an instant also moved behind the boulder.
The two met behind the boulder, their hearts filled with excitement.
Fang Bai smiled, wordlessly opening his arms to Su Linglong.
Su Linglong’s eyes reddened, her rosy lips parted, she leapt into Fang Bai’s embrace, her slender arms wrapping around him like a serpent, tears silently slipping down her fair cheeks.
She held tightly, as if wanting to merge her entire self with Fang Bai, never to part.
"Fang Bai, I don’t want to stay in Love Severing Tower a moment longer, how...how can you take me away?"
Su Linglong suddenly stood straight, her bright eyes fixed on Fang Bai, asking urgently.
The members of Love Severing Tower were not far from them, Su Linglong dared not speak directly to Fang Bai, resorting to Thread Condensation Sound Transmission Technique to communicate.
Fang Bai held Su Linglong’s fragrant shoulders, looking at her tear-streaked face, kissed away her tears without answering her question, instead asked, "Since joining Love Severing Tower, have you been treated unfairly or faced abuse?"
Su Linglong shook her head, "The two Tower Masters of Love Severing Tower have been strict, but never abusive. Fang Bai, why are you asking this?"
Fang Bai sneered, "That’s good then. If there was abuse, I would have destroyed Love Severing Tower! Whoever makes my woman suffer will pay dearly!"
Su Linglong said, "The Main and Deputy Tower Masters of Love Severing Tower are sixth-stage Thunder Tribulation experts. If you clash with them, you’ll suffer greatly! Besides, I’ve been at Love Severing Tower for years and have formed bonds with them, I don’t want to see you fall out. If there’s a chance, we should sneak away!"
She paused and asked again, "You haven’t answered my question. How will you take me away?"
"That’s easy!"
Fang Bai smiled, extending his left hand before Su Linglong, his right hand pointing to the Five Elements Space Ring, "You hide inside this ring first. Once the Immortal Tablet Secret Realm closes, I will take you away."
Su Linglong stared at the Five Elements Space Ring, shining with a bright glint, amazed, "Hide...hide inside here? How can I do that?"
Fang Bai explained, "This Five Elements Space Ring can accommodate life. Wu De and Little Mink are inside now. I will open the space now, as long as you don’t resist, you’ll be taken in."
With that, he waved his left hand before Su Linglong. Her body lifted off the ground under a powerful suction, feeling a brief dizziness, the next moment she found herself in a vast space rich with spiritual energy.
"Eh? Someone new has come in! Looks like that kid Fang Bai found another acquaintance... Haha, it turns out to be Miss Su! Welcome! Welcome!"
Wu De and the transformed Lightning Mink were sparring inside the Five Elements Space Ring. Seeing someone appear, they turned to look, laughing heartily as they moved forward to greet her.
