Seeing this, Jiang Youfu wanted to rush straight in.
With these lightning bolts striking inside, wouldn't his Brother Xiao be blasted into nothingness!
However, no matter how hard he crashed against that small white stone, it was all in vain. The Nature Platform, which he could easily enter and exit before, now seemed completely sealed off.
When Lin Dayou and the Lin family crowd arrived, they only saw Jiang Youfu outside, slapping the stone wall over and over again while continuously calling out Lin Xiao's name.
Several people hurriedly asked him about the situation. After hearing Jiang Youfu explain what he had seen, the crowd also grew anxious. They joined him in slapping the stone wall and calling out Lin Xiao's name.
Little did they know that these lightning bolts were already being guided by the Nature Platform, entering it to strike Lin Xiao over and over again.
Before long, rumbling thunder echoed again above the crowd outside. Seeing that the next wave of the lightning tribulation was about to strike the small white stone, Jiang Youfu, despite his anxiety, hurriedly pulled the Lin family crowd aside to dodge.
While the thunder deafened the ears on Lin Xiao's side, the sky above Wei Hai was not idle either.
Wei Hai had barely attacked the defensive array over Xiushui Village a couple of times before he was baptized by another bolt of falling lightning.
This time, he had been on his guard.
He originally thought he could dodge it, but he found that no matter how graceful his footwork was or how he ducked and hid, the lightning seemed to have grown eyes, smashing into his head with absolute precision.
Furthermore, the lightning that struck down this time was even more powerful than the last, reaching about twenty percent of the intensity of his own Nascent Soul tribulation!
After another brief moment of shock, he finally recovered from the sluggishness of his spiritual energy caused by the strike.
A pain originating from his very soul swept through his entire body.
Fortunately, this pain was within a tolerable range.
Only then did he notice that this lightning seemed somewhat unusual.
Looking up, he discovered that within a hundred-mile radius, only the sky above the village he was in was pitch black.
And only above his head and the newly established sect not far away was lightning raging.
Every time he was struck, an identical bolt of lightning would fall upon that new sect.
At this, Wei Hai suddenly came to a realization.
Could this be a lightning tribulation?
Was someone in this new sect undergoing a tribulation?!
Looking at the continuously churning clouds above his head that showed no signs of dissipating, Wei Hai thought to himself: This should not be a Golden Core lightning tribulation. Golden Core tribulations only have three bolts, and they are much weaker than this one.
Could it be that this is actually a Nascent Soul lightning tribulation?
Thinking of this, he found it somewhat unbelievable.
No way, this Nascent Soul lightning tribulation is far too weak.
It does not even have half the intensity of the tribulation he faced when he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage.
It seems that even if this new sect produces a Nascent Soul ancestor, there is nothing to fear.
Thus, he continued to brazenly bombard the defensive array below with his spells.
Little did he know that down in Xiushui Village, Liao Pantu felt quite pleased upon seeing this lightning tribulation.
To think that kid is actually about to break through!
And he even attracted such a powerful lightning tribulation!
Because he knew the power of the mental cultivation method Lin Xiao practiced, Liao Pantu was mentally prepared for the fact that his Golden Core lightning tribulation would be stronger than the conventionally known ones.
He just did not expect the kid to cultivate so quickly.
The year wasn't even over yet, and he was already about to break through to the Golden Core stage!
Thinking again of the chubby Jiang Youfu, who reached Foundation Establishment in a single day, and his own disciple Sun Yigao, Liao Pantu felt a surge of boundless pride in his chest.
He immediately pulled a Water Dragon Talisman from his robes and launched an attack at Wei Hai above.
This was one of the few remaining high-level talismans his current soul body possessed.
A massive water dragon suddenly shot out from the talisman, roaring as it surged straight toward Wei Hai!
With most of his attention now shifted to the lightning tribulation and being struck from time to time, Wei Hai was caught off guard when a massive water dragon suddenly shot out from an inconspicuous corner below. He was instantly snatched up by the water dragon and swallowed whole.
He possessed a single Fire spiritual root and hated water the most. Now swallowed into the belly of this massive water dragon, he felt his entire body's spiritual energy resisting.
Unexpectedly, another flash of talisman light appeared below, and a beam of white light flew into the water dragon.
The next moment, the entire water dragon instantly transformed into a crystal-clear ice dragon.
Wei Hai was immediately imprisoned within it.
Moreover, due to the mutual restraint of water and fire, combined with the repeated strikes from the lightning tribulation just now, he even felt for a moment as if all the spiritual energy in his body had been sealed!
Furthermore, that freezing and damp aura continued to erode him, as if trying to drill into his dantian and invade his Nascent Soul!
Down below, Liao Pantu, hidden within the Soul Nourishing Pendant, saw that the two talismans had temporarily controlled the man. He dashed past Sun Yigao like flying and sprinted forward.
Sun Yigao, at the early Foundation Establishment stage, naturally could not compare to Liao Pantu, who was now equivalent to the late Foundation Establishment stage. He was immediately left far behind in terms of speed.
Liao Pantu knew very well that he could not completely subdue a Nascent Soul cultivator with just two talismans, so his goal had always been to buy time.
Originally, he just had the mindset of stalling for as long as possible. After all, the entire sect consisted of the old and the young, and their cultivation levels were not high. With a Nascent Soul cultivator coming to cause trouble, managing to survive by hiding in the sect was already pretty good.
But Mo Yuanjiao's unexpected appearance disrupted this plan.
He didn't expect him to return at this time, unluckily running into this Nascent Soul cultivator.
Since he was here, they naturally had to try their best to save him. Otherwise, Liao Pantu felt that if Lin Xiao came out of seclusion and saw a sect member missing, even though he probably wouldn't blame him, Liao Pantu would definitely not be able to live with a clear conscience.
Thinking of this, Liao Pantu couldn't help but secretly shake his head and smile.
If it were before this year, he definitely wouldn't have been like this.
He never imagined that in less than a year, he would be so deeply influenced by these brats.
He looked up at the sky again.
He hoped that kid Lin Xiao would break through sooner and quickly come out of seclusion.
Although things had changed a bit now, Liao Pantu's idea was still to delay for time.
Before, he merely wanted to stall so everyone could hide safely within the sect.
But now, a trace of expectation had grown in his heart.
Perhaps there could be other variables in this situation?
It was also at this time that an elderly figure slowly walked up the path outside the village entrance.
The newcomer was none other than Ancestor Li.
He had noticed the situation in Xiushui Village ahead from a long distance away.
However, he did not rashly approach. Instead, he continued to disguise himself as an ordinary old man, completely retracting his aura, hiding his cultivation base, and walking at a leisurely pace.
Although their Li Imperial Family did not possess many spells, their mental cultivation methods were the most reserved and subtle.
It was extremely easy for them to hide themselves.
Therefore, everyone, including Wei Hai, failed to notice this old man gradually approaching Xiushui Village.
However, when Ancestor Li saw Wei Hai suddenly swallowed by a water dragon in mid-air, and then frozen into an ice sculpture along with that water dragon, he was utterly astonished.
