Shortly after…
Li Tangyu pointed toward the adorable girl who was chatting merrily with Huang Qingling and said:
“The girl with sister Qing Ling is my younger sister, Li Qingqing.”
Lin Jing turned his head to take a look, then turned back and said to Li Tangyu, “Brother Li is indeed blessed.”
Upon hearing this, Li Tangyu couldn’t help but shake his head, revealing a wry smile, and then he sighed:
“Better not to mention it…”
Lin Jing immediately understood and thereafter fell silent…
Then, the two of them turned their heads to look at the immortals on the pebble beach.
At this moment, one more person came from that crowd.
“Seeking a bit of tranquility, please don’t take offense…” This person was Zhang Yuan.
Lin Jing and Li Tangyu turned their heads toward Zhang Yuan.
”Please, feel free…”
“Please, feel free…”
The two said in unison.
Following that, the three of them stopped speaking.
By this time, the immortals had also finished their discussion.
Elder Bai and the other three immortals responsible for protection spread out from the pebble beach, each guarding in a different direction.
Meanwhile, Elder Yu moved to the center of the great formation and began to sit in meditation, preparing to make a breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage.
The crowd that had been talking just moment ago now quieted down and looked toward Elder Yu in the middle of the formation.
It wasn’t until then that Huang Qingling noticed the three people seeking peace and quiet under this large tree.
Afterward, she directly pulled Li Qingqing over to their spot.
“Well, well, look at you…” “You’ve all managed to enjoy the quiet, even hiding away over here.”
“Why didn’t you tell any of us…”
Facing Huang Qingling’s reproach, Li Tangyu remained silent, secretly giving Lin Jing a look, clearly leaving the matter to him to resolve.
“Just now, you two were chatting so happily that we didn’t want to disturb you…”
Lin Jing straightforwardly spoke up, inventing a rather plausible excuse.
Li Tangyu silently gave Lin Jing a thumbs up. “Really?” Huang Qingling asked doubtfully.
“Look…”
“You only realized we were here when we came over, which surely means you were too engrossed,” Lin Jing said. “That must be it…”
Huang Qingling said, a bit embarrassed.
“We were just talking about the Elixir Valley Heir; hence we weren’t paying much attention to what was happening around us.”
“By the way, Tan Yuyi, Qing Qing said you met the Elixir Valley Heir a long time ago; is that true?”
When Huang Qingling addressed Li Tangyu using that moniker, Li Qingqing, who was standing nearby, couldn’t hold back…
“Pfft”
“Hahaha…”
Li Qingqing burst into laughter.
Li Tangyu, on the other hand, had a face full of black lines and spoke helplessly:
“Sister Qing Ling…”
“I know it’s your habit, and you don’t have to call me brother, heck, even calling me a fellow cultivator would do. But with that extra word, it feels like my name has changed its flavor.”
Lin Jing was initially a bit puzzled and didn’t understand why they reacted that way.
After pondering carefully for a moment, he finally realized.
“Tan Yuyi, isn’t that just ‘phlegm basin’? No wonder Li Tangyu said the flavor of his name has changed; the description is just too apt.” Huang Qingling appeared unconcerned and simply said:
“It’s fine, as long as you’re used to it…”
Upon hearing this sentence…
Even Zhang Yuan, who had been quiet all this while, quickly lowered his head and covered his mouth, pretending to be deep in thought.
However, his shoulders kept shaking uncontrollably, clearly struggling to hold back his laughter.
Li Tangyu was at a loss for words.
One could imagine, after all, Huang Qingling dared to address Elder Bai as Old Man Bai, so when facing Li Tangyu, who was of the same generation, there was even less to be said.
Compared to Li Tangyu, Lin Jing was still relatively fortunate, at the very least he was called by his own name.
“Come on, hurry up and tell me…”
Huang Qingling was very curious as she looked towards Li Tangyu.
Li Tangyu naturally couldn’t fuss over it with her and, with no choice, began to narrate:
“It was like this, previously, I had a bet with someone in the black market, to refine Pure Elixir.”
“What was the result?”
Huang Qingling looked towards Li Tangyu with a face full of curiosity.
Li Tangyu spread his hands helplessly:
“That bet, I lost it.”
“It was also after that incident, the Elixir Valley Heir showed up in the black market, so that’s why I suspected he was the Elixir Valley Heir.”
“Have you ever seen what he looks like?” Huang Qingling quickly asked. Li Tangyu shook his head: “No, he was always wearing a wide-brimmed hat.” Huang Qingling nodded and said:
“It could very well be the same person, the Elixir Valley Heir I met was also wearing a wide-brimmed hat.”
After speaking, Huang Qingling heaved a sigh:
“It’s a pity that this person refused to remove his hat, so I couldn’t see his face.
If only we knew what he looked like.”
“That friend from Elixir Valley, since he’s wearing a wide-brimmed hat, certainly has his own difficulties. Sister Qingling, you shouldn’t be too persistent,” Li Tangyu advised.
“That makes sense, forget it, let’s not talk about him anymore…” Huang Qingling said.
At that moment, everyone was still waiting.
In the middle of the gravel beach, Elder Yu had taken the Cultivation True
Elixir for breakthrough and was vigorously attempting to reach the Golden Core Stage.
Just like this, they waited for four hours straight, and noon had already passed.
Just when everyone was at the height of boredom.
On the gravel beach, the aura around Elder Yu suddenly began to change.
At the same time…
The sky that was originally clear started to become unsettling.
Elder Bai and the other protector Golden Core Immortals were also taking action at this time.
They flew midair, distancing themselves even further from the gravel beach, and simultaneously began sweeping the surroundings with their Divine Sense.
This powerful pressure of Divine Sense caused the small animals in the surrounding woods to collapse on the ground, trembling frantically.
The atmosphere in the area was also becoming more and more oppressive.
Lin Jing looked up to see clouds suddenly forming in the sky, converging directly above Elder Yu’s head.
Elder Yu also stood up at this moment, looking up at the sky while summoning his Magical Treasure to circle around him.
Gradually the clouds gathered, and the pressure transmitted from the sky became increasingly intense, and even from a great distance, Lin Jing could clearly sense it.
Heavenly Tribulation!
It was likely about to begin…
The crowd watched in breathless anticipation as the oppressive clouds in the sky pressed lower, and the atmosphere around them grew increasingly tense. Within those clouds, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled incessantly.
Suddenly…
“Crack”
A bolt of lightning came straight down, aiming directly at Elder Yu’s head.
Elder Yu manipulated a shield-shaped Magical Treasure to block above.
The Formation Pattern of the grand array below them was also shining more brightly.
The bolt of lightning collided with the Magical Treasure but dissipated without breaking through its defense.
The first lightning strike was the weakest; the subsequent ones would grow progressively stronger.
Lin Jing saw that Elder Yu, after withstanding the first lightning strike, seemed as composed as ever, evidently suffering no great harm.
Then, before Elder Yu had a chance to regain his composure, the second lightning bolt struck down without any warning. This time as well, Elder Yu easily blocked it.
Following that, came the third…
The fourth…
Until the fifth bolt of lightning struck, Lin Jing saw that Elder Yu was beginning to show signs of strain.
After the fifth bolt of lightning struck, Elder Yu hurriedly took out a Pure Jade Box from his Storage Bag and tossed an Elixir Medicine into his mouth..
