She jumped back to the shore, and Shui Qiu beside her quickly came over. They both looked at the girl who was surrounded by lightning.
The scene just now was too frightening. Even the disciples from the big sects had never needed such a powerful attack to break through.
"Sister..."
Shui Qiu shouted softly.
"Is she going to be knocked unconscious by the thunder?" Xu Lexian said uncertainly, "Do you need to massage her breasts or carry her on your back? She should be quite comfortable, right?"
Upon hearing this, the eldest senior sister of Xuanling Sect jumped up immediately.
"I knew you were planning something bad to my body, humph!"
The strategy purchased from the system mall was very effective, and Tang Xin broke through to the Golden Core realm safely.
She clenched her palms and felt the new power in her lower dantian.
Completely different from the foundation-building level, the breakthrough to the higher level brings about a qualitative change in strength. If she were to fight with the Saint now, at least she wouldn't be beaten unilaterally.
"Congratulations, Senior Sister, for becoming a Golden Core cultivator!"
The blue-eyed girl blessed happily, and the little fox jumped from her hands back to its owner.
Tang Xin rubbed his junior sister's head, then looked into the distance and scanned with the spiritual eye technique.
"Someone is coming," she warned, "It's so loud, it's hard not to notice it. We have to leave quickly..."
"Don't be so anxious," Xu Lexian smiled and took out the Nascent Soul Stage Spirit Bone that he had bought in the market from his storage bag. "The environment here is good. Now that your strength has improved, we can try a small counterattack."
……
After a while, a team of Jindan monks came to the place where Tang Xin broke through.
"He just left not long ago," said a Jindan cultivator, "With such strong energy fluctuations, he must be practicing some special moves or breaking through the realm."
"Breakthrough? In this damn place?"
The Thunder Valley seems to be full of energy and rich spiritual energy, but it is all difficult to control. For most cultivators, it is not only useless but harmful. It is completely incomparable to the blessed land tailor-made for the immortal sects.
After searching around, the team of monks found a special place on the shore.
On the open space, someone deliberately drew a big circle with red powder, placed a spirit stone inside, and left a line of crooked words below.
"It's dangerous, don't step in."
The Jindan monks stopped and stood outside the circle, observing carefully.
"The spirit stone is normal," someone said. "Huh, reverse thinking, huh? Do you think we will mistake this for a trap and dare not step in? Someone, go in and take a look!"
"Uh, what if it really is a trap?"
"So just let one person go in to investigate. I'm 99% sure this is a feint!"
After discussing for a few sentences, one cultivator entered the circle cautiously and attentively, approaching the location of the spirit stone.
After taking a few steps, he safely reached the center of the circle and picked up the spirit stone without any accidents.
"I told you it was the Empty City Strategy," the team leader said smugly, "It's too early to play tricks on me..."
boom--
Dust flew, and suddenly, a large ball of dazzling white light appeared outside the circle. The violent energy once again triggered the thunder power in the Thunder River, forming a chain reaction and turning the place into a sea of thunder.
After a while.
"I told you, it's human nature to watch, so don't join in the fun when you have nothing to do!"
"When it comes to shady people, you are indeed more skilled..."
"Senior sister has a great body and an even better brain!"
The voices of three girls came from the dust and fog.
Xu Lexian picked up the bone fragments on the ground and nodded with satisfaction.
Using the spirit bones of Nascent Soul cultivators as a medium, special symbols are carved on them and made into powerful weapons.
Because the surroundings are filled with thunder power, this trap is much more difficult to detect than in the outside world, and the effect is better.
"You, you guys..."
The monk who had entered the circle earlier and was farthest from the center of the explosion, dragged his wounded body and struggled to get up.
Tang Xin was not polite either. He went up and punched him, knocking him down again.
The purpose of designing the trap, besides attracting their attention, is also to leave them alive.
I was targeted for no apparent reason, so I have to know the other party's origins, right?
Xu Lexian searched him thoroughly but did not find anything related to his identity.
"You are well prepared," the Saint said with a sneer, "You came prepared, right?"
She put two fingers together and injected a beam of colored light into the center of the eyebrows of the person under her feet, instantly causing his face to distort, his body to twitch, and he to wail.
"You've never experienced a mental attack, have you? Tell us everything you know, so you can suffer less!"
"Dream...I..."
The saint pointed again and used a stream of true energy to shatter half of the opponent's teeth, and kicked a specially made poison pill aside.
"You can't 'please allegiance' anymore? Do you think I don't know where you guys like to hide your last resort? Tell me, who are you?"
"I...will not give in..."
This man was very tough. Even though his Dantian was sealed and he couldn't end the pain by himself, he still didn't reveal any information.
"Pretending to be tough in front of me? You look down on me, don't you?"
"Ah-uh-oh!!"
Tang Xin pulled Shui Qiu aside and blindfolded her.
"You are still young, this kind of scene is not suitable for you to watch..."
"I'm not small. My senior sister and the Saint both said I'm very big..."
After screaming for a long time, the saint used all her tricks and made the opponent half breath old, but still gained nothing.
"Fuck," the Saint cursed, "Even mental attacks are useless? Didn't the elders say that normal people can't stand it? You are kidding me, right?"
She returned to Tang Xin and said helplessly.
"I don't think we can get anything out of this guy. He must be mentally ill..."
[The main mission has been triggered]
[Torture the enemy to obtain useful information]
[Task Reward: "Black Market Secret Words (Latest Edition)"]
Alas, such evil things cannot be done by righteous people.
Tang Xin sighed, handed Shui Qiu to Xu Lexian, and said helplessly.
"Take your junior sister away for a while, I'll give it a try."
"avoid?"
The saint was stunned.
"Avoid any adverse effects on your body and mind. I don't want to leave any psychological trauma on you..."
She shrugged.
Xu Lexian looked at her deeply.
With the Saint's temperament, it would have been impossible for her to avoid it before. She didn't think that if she couldn't do anything to the guy, what else could others do?
But...this is Tang Xin.
"Okay," she nodded, "I'll leave it to you."
The two women walked away, and the man lying in a pool of blood looked at the eldest senior sister of Xuanling Sect with disdain in his eyes.
"I...have already said...it's useless...you can't...defeat...my..."
"Yes, yes, yes," Tang Xin leaned over and fed him a healing pill, "Hold on. If you can't hold on, it will be troublesome..."
Chapter 119: Senior Sister Persuading People to Be Good
The two girls who had gone far away had no idea what was happening on the shore.
"Little girl," Xu Lexian crossed her arms and thought, "How do you think Tang Xin will use to make him speak?"
"Based on my understanding of Senior Sister," Shui Qiu answered seriously, "she must have used her emotions and reason to persuade the other party to turn back and soothe her wounded heart with her gentle words!"
Who is Senior Sister Tang? She can even think of those disciples of Xuanling Sect who are making trouble all the time. With such a dazzling light, it should not be a problem to influence an enemy!
"gentle……"
Xu Lexian rolled her eyes at her.
The saint is not a naive person. She does not have any kind and amiable temperament in Tang Xin. She even gives people a hint of decisiveness in killing.
In today's world of cultivation, although there are constant minor frictions between forces, large-scale unrest has not occurred for a long time. The temperament of decisive killing is rare among the younger generation of cultivators.
Moreover, her temperament does not seem to be acquired slowly, but rather is innate, which is more worth pondering.
The chief disciple of Xuanling Sect... It seems necessary to check her background when I return.
After a while, Tang Xin slowly appeared in sight and waved at them, indicating that it was over.
Xu Lexian and Shui Qiu returned to the shore and found that the enemy who had fallen in a pool of blood was now sitting cross-legged on the ground with his hands on his knees, his eyes closed, and an expression of indifference.
This... really made people feel moved?
"I've finished asking questions," Tang Xin clapped his hands and said, "This group of people are just doing the work for money. They don't know much about their employer. They only know the name 'Blood Honor Hall'."
She asked the Saint.
"Do you have any impression?"
"Blood Lord Hall?" Xu Lexian frowned and thought for a long time. "I don't remember. The name sounds like a demonic force. What about the origins of these guys? They are so stubborn, they don't seem like a mob."
"Jiuxing Pavilion," Tang Xin said, "the largest and most mysterious underground force in Jiuzhou."
