Chapter 65 Flowers Fading
This sudden rainfall completely changed the topography of Hanyu Mountain.
The barren and dusty mountains and ridges that were originally barren and dusty turned out to be covered with trees and lush grass after the heavy rain. Not only did they regain their former greenness, but they even became more green.
But this kind of wild growth did not last too long.
A quarter of an hour after the heavy rain, the wild growth trend of the trees in the mountains stopped, as if all the spiritual energy had been sucked away.
In the back mountain of the Wolf Temple, the peach forest surrounded by the wall was full of fallen petals. The peach forest that had bloomed for nearly a year, within a quarter of an hour after the heavy rain, all the peach flowers withered.
On the verdant green branches, small green fruits appeared silently.
After a night, when the next morning came, Xiao Ai suddenly found that the peach fragrance lingering in the mountain had suddenly disappeared.
She rushed to the peach forest to check and found that all the peach flowers in the peach forest had withered. But on the green branches, there are many small fruits the size of green plums.
The white ape was quite happy to see this scene, and kept chirping loudly, thinking that there would be peaches to eat.
Xiao Ai slapped its head and poured a basin of cold water on the excited monkey.
"It has only grown so small, and I don't know how many years it will take to mature..."
Xiao Ai said, looking at the sky above his head.
The rain yesterday lasted for three hours. However, after the rain ended, the red calamity cloud disappeared.
The sky above Hanyu Mountain is now a long-lost blue sky.
The sudden change of this peach forest must be due to the rain yesterday. The water spirit essence brought by the rain is far more abundant than the rain brought by the heavenly punishment calamity cloud. But even such a rain only made the peach blossoms wither and produce these small fruits.
It will take a long time for these fruits to mature on their own.
However, compared to the unripe peaches in the peach forest, Xiao Ai is more concerned about the current situation of Lord Wolf God.
After witnessing the divine punishment of falling yesterday, and knowing the horror of the divine punishment from the two Li priests, Xiao Ai was worried.
But now she can do nothing except worry. The weakness of her own strength made the little girl more determined to concentrate on hard work.
She wanted to be able to stand on her own, instead of hiding helplessly behind the Wolf God every time something happened.
As for the two priests of the Li tribe, they left yesterday.
Li Po asked Xiao Ai for the required Tianlei Sand, and left with his half-crippled body.
Although he did not take too much, the casting of the Tianjie Sword had consumed nearly 70% of the Tianlei Sand. Now Li Po took away another part, and Xiao Ai had very little Tianlei Sand left.
The old priest Li Ju returned to the camp to recuperate.
At the moment when the sword embryo in the furnace was formed, the minds of the two priests were immersed in the control of the furnace fire, and they did not distract themselves to resist the pouring sword intent. So after the fire and sword intent broke out, both of them were damaged by the impact of the sword intent and fire, and it took a long time to recover.
Although the old priest tried to keep Li Po in the Xifeng tribe to recuperate and return to the Hanhai tribe after his injuries got better.
But Li Po, who got the Tianlei Sand, was anxious and did not want to delay for a moment.
Delaying the old man's kindness, he dragged his half-crippled body directly into the wind and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight. He had to return to the Hanhai tribe immediately to make preliminary preparations.
The Hanyu Mountains, which had turned into scorched earth due to the raging fire in the sword furnace, have finally restored their former tranquility and greenery.
The tribesmen of the Xifeng tribe moved the camp back to the mountains again and reclaimed the wasteland. However, the weather was getting colder and winter was approaching, and the reclaimed wasteland could only be sown tomorrow.
Fortunately, the food stored in previous years is enough, and some rice grains were exchanged from Shuisheng Village, so the Xifeng tribe is not worried about running out of food.
What's more, wild beasts are entrenched in the depths of Hanyu Mountain, and there is a large lake across the Hanyu Mountains, where the fish are plump. Although the mountain is difficult to walk, it is not only life-threatening for ordinary people to cross Hanyu Mountain and reach the big lake over there, but it also takes one or two days.
But everyone in the Xifeng tribe is extraordinary, and the mountainous forests that are difficult for ordinary people to walk cannot stop their steps at all, and there is no need to worry about the wild beasts in the mountains.
Every time a team is sent to fish in the big lake behind the mountain, it can go back and forth in half a day.
Outside Hanyu Mountain, the villagers of Shuisheng Village are all confused about what happened in the mountain. They don't know about the divine meteorite thunder, but they only see the terrifying scene of the red sky thunder, and the subsequent heavy rain makes the entire Hanyu Mountains return to their former greenness.
The villagers thought that the red calamity cloud was the power of the wolf god, so they didn't take it to heart.
After that, on the Double Ninth Festival, Shuisheng Village once again held a grand sacrificial ceremony, and as in previous years, the ceremony was held at the river bend at the foot of the main peak.
However, this year, many members of the Xifeng tribe also participated in the ceremony. A temporary market was built at the river bend, which was very lively.
Xiao Ai presided over the sacrifice as she did last year.
But until the end of the sacrifice, the Wolf God did not appear.
Her worries were even greater.
After the Double Ninth Festival, the weather became increasingly cold, and the autumn wind in the mountains was bleak. The little girl had not been able to practice for several days.
She sat on the bluestone steps, holding her chin with both hands, staring at the green mountains in the distance, her eyes full of worry. Her restless state made it impossible for her to concentrate.
In the underground temple, Lu Heng concentrated and slowly repaired the damage to his soul.
Although he suffered great damage from the divine thunderbolt along with the Heavenly Tribulation Sword, this kind of heavenly punishment thunderbolt, which he had never encountered before, made him see another possibility of thunderbolt.
Although he can only control ordinary heavenly thunderbolts now.
But the power of the divine thunderbolt strike was forever imprinted in the depths of his soul. Like a seed that has not yet sprouted, although it is silent, it may one day bloom into an extraordinary future.
In the quiet underground temple, the huge white wolf lay down and slept with his eyes closed.
In the void in front of the white wolf, Lu Heng's translucent soul incarnation was suspended. There was a faint golden breath flowing between the soul incarnation and the demon body.
But now there is also a dark green sword connected to the soul incarnation.
In the dark yellow earth spirit, the Heavenly Tribulation Sword that survived the punishment was quietly sinking and floating, without any killing intent or sharpness. The simple and calm appearance did not have the slightest fierceness.
The scabbard of Fusang wood was neutral and peaceful, and it contained all the sword intent of the Heavenly Tribulation Sword.
The divine meteorite thunder that was put into the scabbard had now completely disappeared. Even Lu Heng could not find a trace of it. It seemed to have disappeared in the Heavenly Tribulation Sword.
But Lu Heng knew that the situation was not that simple.
When he slightly relieved the injuries of his soul, the incarnation of the Yuanshen in the underground palace opened his eyes directly and flew out of the underground with the Heavenly Tribulation Sword that had been silent for several days.
A golden light broke through the ground in front of the Wolf God Temple and went straight up to the sky.
The clear sky above the Wolf God Temple quickly gathered wisps of clouds. In the end, the clouds that gathered from all directions turned directly into dark tribulation clouds, which slowly rotated above the Wolf God Temple, like a cold eye of heavenly punishment, silently watching the earth below.
The long-lost tribulation cloud appeared and once again covered the sky above the main peak.
The little girl and the white ape had long been alarmed by the changes in the sky. They looked up and saw a figure vaguely flying in the wind under the calamity cloud, ethereal and ethereal.
Then, there was a deafening thunder explosion.
The main peak of Hanyu Mountain, which had not seen a calamity for more than a year, dropped seven blazing white calamity thunders in a row.
Under the shocked gaze of Xiao Ai and the white ape, all the seven calamity thunders were absorbed by the Heavenly Tribulation Sword suspended in the void. The sword body was flashing with lightning, faintly emitting fierce power.
But as the flashing lightning was slowly absorbed into the scabbard, even the fierce power gradually disappeared.
Lu Heng, who was under the calamity cloud, looked down and saw Xiao Ai in front of the Fanglang Temple, and saw the worry and joy in the little girl's eyes.
He smiled slightly, but didn't say anything, and went back to the underground with the Heavenly Tribulation Sword.
Now that the lightning was drawn into the sword, he had to verify his guess.
As for Xiao Ai, now that she saw him appear, the little girl should put her worries aside.
