ourse, I did this for a reason. One is to test the KMT's determination in executing the plan. Currently, it seems their determination is very strong, even letting someone like me, an assistant, go aft...They immediately discovered clues because the Meng family's theft of spiritual energy and cultivation resources didn't leave completely without a trace. Since there was a trail to follow, it was only a matter of time before they were caught.
After discovering the Meng family's existence, both sides engaged in fierce fighting. After all, no one welcomes a thief who steals their belongings. Unfortunately, due to the disparity in strength and the inability of high-ranking cultivators from the upper realm to descend, they were ultimately defeated.
In order to counter the Meng family, the cultivators of this realm began to lurk and silently improve their cultivation. As long as their strength was strong enough, they would definitely drive the Meng family away. Unfortunately, after being exposed, the Meng family became even more arrogant and brazen, stealing the spiritual energy and resources of this realm at an increasingly rapid pace.
As spiritual energy dwindled and it became impossible to cultivate high-level cultivators, the Meng family, having plundered most of this plane's resources, shifted their attention. After tasting success, they followed the same pattern, choosing another cultivation plane to begin a new round of plundering.
This realm has been ravaged, but cultivators haven't disappeared. The Wen family is one such family. Their ancestral treasure is a piece of spirit marrow painstakingly left behind by their ancestor. As long as the spirit marrow exists, it can nourish the spiritual veins. With spiritual veins, they can cultivate. At least the Wen family can still nurture cultivators.
The Wen family also did the same, unfortunately, although they were discreet, they still attracted the attention of the Meng family, which is why the incident fifty years ago happened. The Wen family fought with all their might that time, with high-ranking cultivators from the family going all out, and with the help of formations, they barely managed to defeat the world's first floor.
The Meng family was worst at formations, and this time they suffered heavy losses in personnel. This also broke the Wen family's transmission of cultivation techniques, so they didn't pursue relentlessly, giving both sides a fifty-year period of peace.
When the Even-Temperature Family was selecting a wife, Heaven's First Floor seized the opportunity and sent people like Ripple into the Even-Temperature Fortress. Their purpose was to figure out the Even-Temperature Family's defensive array formations and steal the Even-Temperature Fortress's treasures.
This operation went unusually smoothly thanks to the variable, Ripple. Meng Rongli learned that the Wen family's secret treasure was a whole piece of Spirit Marrow, and he was naturally overjoyed. With this achievement, he could return to the Upper Realm and even break through to the Divine Transformation stage.
A cultivator of the Nascent Soul stage is considered a high-level cultivator, and their future development will be even better. With the spiritual marrow ahead, Meng Rong ignored many details and focused solely on retrieving the spiritual marrow. Even if there were sacrifices involved, he saw it as a blessing for those people.
Ultimately, he became a stepping stone for ripples.
After sorting through these memories, Lian Ri's brows furrowed tightly. She came from the Xianxia world herself and was extremely disgusted with families who disregarded others' lives, stealing power and resources from different planes of existence.
But it seems that there are at least Mahayana cultivators stationed in the Meng family. If she wants to fight head-on, she still needs to accumulate strength for a while. Her goal is to have the entire Meng family suffer retribution. It's not easy to steal the luck of a plane like this.
Moreover, Meng used the evil eyes that obscured the heavens. She also intended to destroy them, so the spiritual marrow she retrieved was still very useful.
After sorting everything out, Lian Yi, in the voice of the original poster, announced that she would go into seclusion and hand over the affairs of the number one building to another elder.
Before entering seclusion, she also sent a message to the Wen family stronghold, asking them to close their gates and wait for the right moment. She would give the Wen family an explanation.
Wen Shirui looked at the message in his hand, sighed, and said to the ancestor of the Wen family:
"Ancestors, I've decided to abandon my current cultivation and start anew, focusing on the technique passed down to me by Miss Hua."
Have you decided
"Well, this is my only chance."
Since you've made your decision, Ancestor won't stop you. Go to the spirit vein to cultivate, it will be twice the result with half the effort.
"Thank you, Ancestor! How about Miss Hua"
After a moment of hesitation, Wen Shirui still asked out loud.
"We can only wait. If she can't even get the number one building, then we can only continue to lie low and wait. Without that spiritual marrow, the Wen family stronghold will be free from trouble."
The patriarch of the Wen family knew very well that Liàn Yī hadn't uprooted the spiritual veins entirely, leaving them a way out.
Time flew by, and ten years later, on a bright afternoon, a change occurred at the top-ranked "First Floor" building. The entire "First Floor" was engulfed in flames, attracting everyone's attention.
Ripple spent ten years, using her spiritual essence to restore herself to the peak of the Mahayana stage. She was only one step away from ascending.
She destroyed the entire Number One Building without any hesitation. Then, with a move of fire and silver flowers, she eliminated all the Meng family members scattered on this plane. Afterwards, she forcefully broke through the passage and arrived at the Meng family's upper realm.
An elder guarding the special passage of the Meng family was meditating when suddenly, a powerful aura struck him. In the next instant, dark clouds gathered above the Meng family's head, and robbery clouds surged in the sky. The pressure from heaven made people shiver with fear.
Is someone going through a tribulation
Elder Meng had just stood up when he saw a female cultivator emerging from a nearly derelict passage.
"Who are you Where is Rongli"
The elder immediately realized something was wrong, and the Immortal Binding Rope in his hand flew out at the same time.
When the ripples arrived, they had already destroyed this passage. After entering the Meng family's territory, he crushed the evil eye that concealed the heavenly path of the lower realms. For a short time, the Meng family would be unable to send people down again, nor could they harm the lower realms anymore.
With a happy heart, she seized the Immortal Binding Rope and sneered:
"You even dare to use a counterfeit"
Then casually burn the rope with red lotus fire.
Master Meng's face changed, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood with a "poof", and said in a gloomy voice:
Who are you
Of course, it's someone here to collect a debt.
After Lian Ri finished speaking, she looked up at the sky. The next moment, a bolt of tribulation thunder fell. However, this time, nine bolts of tribulation thunder from the Golden Core stage descended at once. After all, her cultivation advancement was purely based on accumulating spiritual energy, and heaven's path had been obscured, so she did not need to go through tribulation.
The ripples were struck by lightning, and the elder beside her was also struck by lightning because he was too close to Ripples. He was tacitly considered a tribulation cultivator and struck along with her.
Nine bolts of tribulation lightning ended in an instant. Lian Ri moved his bones and felt the spiritual energy within him become more solid. Then, with a flash of his figure, he left the hall.
The dark clouds above the Meng family's head had not dissipated, but instead rolled with increasing ferocity. Ripples stepped onto the red lotus flames one step at a time and walked into the sky above the Meng family. She opened her mouth coldly:
"The Meng family dared to replace Heaven, stealing the resources and Qi of the lower realms. Today is the day of your demise."
Although Ripples wasn't a true Mahayana cultivator, her soul had reached that level, so her words were heard throughout the entire upper realm.
"Damn liar!"
The Meng family's Mahayana cultivator flickered and appeared opposite the ripple, his face grimly countering.
Ripples was too lazy to argue with her. The next instant, another bolt of lightning struck down, this time a tribulation thunder from the Nascent Soul stage.
But because the ripples stood above the Meng family, almost everyone in the Meng family was within the range of the tribulation thunder and was also tacitly considered a tribulation target. As the heavenly tribulation thunder fell, there were cries of anguish throughout the Meng family for a time.
Not everyone can withstand the tribulation thunder of the Yuan Ying stage. Patriarch Meng's eyes sank, and he waved his hand, ready to send the younger generations of the Meng family out of the range of the tribulation thunder. Unfortunately, how could Lian Yi let him succeed She casually threw out a red lotus業 fire.s, Senior Sister."
