Chapter 896 - 818: Encountering the Ice Corpse Again (2)
Duan Gujin knew that after he used the Starry Sky Escape Technique, this situation would definitely occur.No matter what kind of spiritual pills he took then, he would still be unable to recover any Primordial Power or Spiritual Power within ten days.
He could only accept this outcome.
Time flowed like water, passing swiftly.
The ten days quickly passed, and once his Primordial Power and Spiritual Power were restored, Duan Gujin returned to his residence to reunite with Qing Lian and Zhan Huantai.
Although Duan Gujin had disappeared for ten days, Qing Lian believed he would be fine, so she did not go looking for him.
Both of them had been reborn, and they both had faith in each other.
Listening to Duan Gujin recounting what happened before, Qing Lian then learned that he had encountered the Taihuang Immortal Sect's Sect Leader, Zhan Changsheng.
"That was close! Luckily, you learned the Starry Sky Escape Technique, otherwise, you'd be in trouble!"
Qing Lian gasped, knowing full well that although Duan Gujin was invincible below the Martial Saint Realm, if he had to face Zhan Changsheng, who had been cultivating for over a thousand years, in a one-on-one battle, it would be very difficult for Duan Gujin to win.
After all, there was a Great Realm difference between them.
"Yes! It seems that the sect leaders of the Taihuang Immortal Sect have noticed how different we are, so be more careful in your actions in the future!"
"Don't worry, when those Sea Demon Corpse Army attacked the city, we only guided the citizens away. We didn't engage them head-on! The next day, all of those Sea Demon Corpse Army turned into white bones, and a massive Heavenly Tribulation appeared where the sea demons had gathered!"
Qing Lian told Duan Gujin about the events that had happened in the past few days.
Upon hearing this, Duan Gujin said, "Serves those sea demons right!"
One can only understand how terrifying a Heavenly Tribulation is by experiencing it firsthand.
The leaders of those three major sea demons did not understand the Heavenly Tribulation enough, mistakenly thinking it was just a massive black cloud forming in the sky.
When they saw the Heavenly Tribulation descend, each of them was shocked, and their hearts pounded violently.
"Heavens! I didn't know the Heavenly Tribulation was this terrifying!"
Every sea demon was so frightened upon seeing the Heavenly Tribulation that they were almost scared out of their wits.
The Heavenly Tribulation wasn't just a black cloud forming in the sky; it nearly covered half of the sea, descending to within ten meters of the surface.
When a sea demon emerged from the sea, trying to see what the Heavenly Tribulation was all about,
a bolt of lightning shot from the black cloud that covered half the sea, blasting the sea demon's body into countless pieces.
"Heavens! Such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation!"
The sea demons, having witnessed the terror of the Heavenly Tribulation firsthand, were all filled with fear, afraid of being struck themselves and having their souls scattered.
The Human Clan, upon seeing the Heavenly Tribulation manifest in such a terrifying manner, were shocked as well.
However, they did not feel any tension; they knew the Heavenly Tribulation was targeting the sea demons. With the sea demons now suffering divine punishment, it was naturally a pleasing sight for humanity.
Human Warriors were slightly worried about these sea demons emerging from the sea, as they were now suffering from the Heavenly Tribulation's wrath.
They feared that the sea demons, having nothing to lose, might desperately drag humans down with them before dying.
Thus, the Coastal Cities were gradually abandoned, transformed into military fortresses by warriors from all over to block the sea demons' landings.
Duan Gujin and Qing Lian watched as the terrifying Heavenly Tribulation appeared above the sea, both gasping in disbelief.
They clearly recalled how in their previous life, the Yuanzhen Continent was still in an era of peace, without sea demons launching fierce attacks on the Human Clan's cities, which eventually led to the appearance of the Heavenly Tribulation.
"The changes in this life are indeed great!"
Duan Gujin and Qing Lian mused.
Two days later, Zhan Huantai informed them that the Taihuang Immortal Sect had announced across the Yuanzhen Continent that the three of them were spies from another continent, and all warriors should be wary of the three Martial Saint experts from another continent.
The announcement also declared that these three Martial Saints infiltrated the Yuanzhen Continent to scout intelligence, in preparation for a future invasion.
"Haha, Zhan Changsheng sure knows how to stir things up!"
Duan Gujin laughed after reading it.
"He wants to incite a common enemy mentality among all the warriors of the Yuanzhen Continent, urging them to come after you. But don't worry, no one in the Lightning Corps knows your true identity!"
Zhan Huantai said.
"That's good!"
Duan Gujin believed Zhan Huantai to be flawless in his methods, understanding that Zhan Huantai's rise in their previous life was no accident but a testament to his actual abilities.
"With Zhan Huantai's prowess, it should be impossible for him to contend with Zhan Changsheng, whose cultivation has reached the Shattering Void Realm. Why then are there so many experts in the Taihuang Immortal Sect unable to deal with Zhan Huantai? Even though Zhan Huantai is only at the First Level of the Martial Saint, and no matter how talented he is, if Zhan Changsheng truly wanted him dead, he wouldn't be a match for Zhan Changsheng! Could it be that Zhan Changsheng sees him as his own child and is holding back on purpose?"
Duan Gujin's eyes twinkled as he carefully recollected the experiences from his previous life.
Although his memory is excellent, during that time, he and Qing Lian were extremely cautious in their conduct on the Yuanzhen Continent.
While they did provoke the Taihuang Immortal Sect back then, they had not blatantly antagonized them as they had now, and they hadn't been declared wanted by the Taihuang Immortal Sect across the entire Yuanzhen Continent.
Duan Gujin understood that in their previous life, the two of them had only selected small fries to deal with, rather than confront the Taihuang Immortal Sect's leader directly as they were now.
