Chapter 525 The Bone Hand Reappears
The second way, the third way...
When the thirty-sixth bolt of demonic lightning crashed down, Wu Xuemei's entire body was charred black, but her eyes shone with a frightening brightness.
The demonic infant devoured all the Nine Netherworld Demonic Lightning, and dark lightning patterns appeared on its surface, making its aura even more powerful.
As the heavenly tribulation dissipated, Ling Xiaozhi and the others stared blankly at Wu Xuemei, their faces filled with shock.
"He's broken through to the Nascent Soul realm?"
"What kind of heavenly tribulation was that just now? Why was it a black lightning tribulation, and why was it so terrifying?"
……
Even the most outstanding figures in the cultivation world of Tianyuan Continent, such as Ling Xiaozhi, and even Ling Xiaozhi himself, a peerless expert in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm who had lived for over a thousand years, had never seen or even heard of a black lightning tribulation.
Because there are no traces of demons in the cultivation world of Tianyuan Continent, there are naturally no demon cultivators undergoing tribulation, and therefore such black demonic lightning would never appear.
"Master!"
Upon seeing Ling Xiaozhi and his group, Wu Xuemei quickly suppressed the surging anger in her heart, restrained all the demonic energy within her body, and respectfully greeted them.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Ling Xiaozi exclaimed "Good!" three times in a row, "I never expected you to break through to the Nascent Soul realm, even faster than Shi Potian!"
Although Wu Xuemei's tribulation was eerily terrifying, she had indeed broken through to the Nascent Soul realm, and Ling Xiaozi's doubts were quickly dispelled by this pleasant surprise.
"It's all thanks to my master's guidance."
When Wu Xuemei heard him mention Shi Potian, her heart stirred slightly, and she responded in a flat tone.
"You are a child with exceptional talent. With you joining Lingxiao Pavilion, our Lingxiao Pavilion will surely shine brightly in the future."
Ling Xiaozi looked at him with admiration, then changed the subject and said, "After this sect competition is over, I will arrange for you and that boy Shi Potian to get married!"
"Thank you, Master. Everything is up to you."
Wu Xuemei immediately adopted a girlish demeanor, her cheeks flushing red, looking somewhat shy.
Upon seeing this, everyone burst into laughter.
He is still a child after all.
Even though she was not yet sixteen years old and had already advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, making her an ancestor in the cultivation world, she was still so thin-skinned.
"We won't bother you any longer. You should focus on stabilizing your cultivation level."
Ling Xiaozi waved his hand, and a round pill flew towards Wu Xuemei. "This is a Nascent Soul Pill. Please accept it."
After saying that, he and the others disappeared in an instant.
After everyone had completely left, Wu Xuemei turned and returned to her cave. Just as she closed the door, a chilling voice suddenly echoed in her mind:
"Good, good, good."
Wu Xuemei's heart skipped a beat, and she blurted out, "Who?!"
"Hehe, you've forgotten so quickly? The Burial Valley Secret Realm?"
Along with this voice, a pale, skeletal hand appeared in the cave without warning.
"It's...it's you..."
The surprise on Wu Xuemei's face faded, replaced by undisguised joy.
Although she still doesn't understand why such a terrifying skeletal hand is hidden inside her body, this hand has saved her life several times.
"Yes, it's me."
As soon as the voice faded, the skeletal hand vanished without a trace.
"Thank you so much for saving me on so many occasions!"
Wu Xuemei quickly bowed and greeted him respectfully.
"No need to thank me, protecting you is my duty."
"Huh? Your duty?"
Wu Xuemei was stunned for a moment.
"You don't need to know the reason now. Just focus on your cultivation. With me here, no one in this world can hurt you."
The voice paused, then became resolute.
Wu Xuemei's heart stirred again. "Thank you, senior. I will definitely devote myself to cultivation and will never let you down."
However, I have a mortal enemy whose talent is equally extraordinary. She now possesses the strength to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator. In the upcoming sect competition, I will definitely face her..."
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by that cold voice: "I know who you're talking about, it's that little human girl from last time."
Slaying a Nascent Soul cultivator? How long has it been? She's already become this powerful?!
"This is absolutely true, and it is what terrifies me the most," Wu Xuemei said urgently. "I wonder if you, senior, could help me eliminate this person?"
"What's so difficult about that?"
With your breakthrough to the Nascent Soul realm, my strength has also recovered considerably. Even a Deity Transformation cultivator is no match for me.
My strength will grow along with your cultivation level, enough to kill an enemy who is a whole realm higher than you.
The voice spoke softly.
"So, I'm currently at the early Nascent Soul stage, and you can kill a cultivator at the early Deity Transformation stage?"
Wu Xuemei's eyes lit up.
"They can even go a bit higher; cultivators at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm are also possible!"
The voice carried a hint of arrogance.
"Good! Good! Great!"
Wu Xuemei shouted excitedly, "I will definitely speed up my cultivation and strive to break through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, or even the late-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, before the sect competition!"
By then, you will be virtually invincible in the cultivation world of Tianyuan Continent!
This time, however, the voice did not respond.
After a long while, Wu Xuemei's eyes blazed with demonic light: "Haha, Shen Rugo, you vixen, you shameless woman! The day of the sect competition will be your death day! I will not only kill you, but I will make sure you die a gruesome death!"
She suddenly looked up, gazing in the direction of the Star Palace, a cold and cruel smile curling at the corner of her lips.
The news that Wanbaoge's branches in dozens of major cities in the northern region had been robbed quickly spread, shaking the entire Tianyuan Continent.
Misty Peak, Heavenly Mystery Palace, Profound Heaven Sect, Qingyuan Sect, Lingxiao Pavilion...
The high-ranking members of all the major sects were filled with doubt and uncertainty.
"Wanbaoge has been robbed again?"
"And this time, dozens of branches were raided, almost half of the entire Northern Region?"
"Old Ancestor Lingtian was at the late Nascent Soul stage, yet he couldn't find any trace of those people and just watched them escape?"
"Just who are those robbers?"
……
Almost all the high-ranking members of the sects focused their attention on Wanbaoge, and everyone was extremely curious about that group of mysterious thieves.
The Myriad Realms Dragon transformed into a dazzling starlight, piercing through layers of clouds and landing steadily on the mountain gate plaza of the Star Palace.
Shen Rugo was the first to leap off the warship, her green dress swaying gently in the wind, exuding an ethereal and otherworldly charm.
Then, Xiao Changkong, Ye Xinghe, Lu Haoran, Chen Tianba, Xiao Qiushui, and Qinghe Daoren walked out one by one, each with an irrepressible excitement on their face.
"Quickly, to the main hall!"
Unable to contain his excitement, Qinghe Daoist urged repeatedly, "I want to see just how many treasures we've snatched this time!"
The Star Daoist had been waiting for a long time. As soon as he saw everyone return, he immediately raised his hand to activate the protective array, and the hazy starlight instantly enveloped the entire Star Palace.
Inside the council hall, seven people sat around a table. Shen Rugo raised her hand and flicked her sleeve, and hundreds of storage rings clattered onto the long table.
