() Since ancient times, there have been countless people who have cultivated immortals. There are very few people who can be called "enlightened". How many amazing and brilliant people who are known as geniuses in cultivating immortals have unfortunately fallen to the last hurdle of the "Heavenly Tribulation" in the end.

The Tribulation, as the name suggests, is a calamity from the heavens. The way of cultivating immortals, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, breaking through the age limit, and breaking the cycle of life, old age, sickness, and death of mortal bodies, is to go against the sky. After cultivating to the level of "refining the void and being true", it can be said that all cultivation is to prepare for the final heavenly tribulation. What kind of situation was the situation when the "Heavenly Tribulation" came, and how difficult it was to cross, no one except the Sword Immortal knew. Most of the sword immortals who successfully crossed the catastrophe invariably chose to hide in the world, even if they occasionally appeared on the rivers and lakes, they were like meteors breaking through the sky and fleeting, which was unpredictable and impossible to find.

"The difficulty of the catastrophe is comparable to digging with a spoon from a mountain and taking from the ocean.

The danger of catastrophe is comparable to the burning of fire and the dew of heavy rain. ”

Lu Hailong silently recited these two laughing words that the Sword Immortal left in "Ancient and Modern Strange Chronicles". Ten days ago, the induction of the Heavenly Tribulation came suddenly, and at the same time, he had to face the battle of fairies and demons, which made him almost at a loss. Fortunately, the dragon clan finally showed up before the catastrophe came, and in desperation, Lu Hailong could only make one last contribution to the people of the Qinglong Continent.

After hearing that the prisoner cow had promised not to harm the common people, Lu Hailong immediately left Tiandao Mountain. In the remaining day, he hoped to fly as far away from Tiandao Mountain as possible. Almost every immortal cultivator knows that when crossing the Heavenly Tribulation, if other Immortal Cultivators in the Tribulation Realm fall into the range of the Heavenly Tribulation, they will have a terrible joint reaction, and they will be dragged along with the Tribulation person, and the power of the Heavenly Tribulation will also increase significantly. I don't know who passed down this characteristic of the Heavenly Tribulation, and there is no way to verify whether it is true or false. After all, no one dares to risk such a life-and-death event.

However, where is the right place to go to cross the tribulation? In terms of the abundance of spiritual energy, within the scope of a one-day flight, there is undoubtedly the Tianyun Sect's Misty Basin is the best, but first, he did not get the permission of his master, and second, he was worried that the Heavenly Tribulation would destroy the holy land of other people's sects, so Lu Hailong had to find another place. He thought about it, it was better to go in the Wuling Mountain Range, where it was quiet and remote, there was no lack of aura, and the distance was relatively close, so he could save half a day of pranayama preparation before the tribulation.

After making up his mind, Lu Hailong deflected slightly and flew straight east.

When Lu Hailong's figure was almost invisible in the sky, two more fairy swords slashed through the sky and followed.

Suddenly, two more people flew into this sky, and they were the two masters Meng Fantao and Xue Yuelin who had disappeared inexplicably in the big battle as the prisoner Niu said.

"Sister Xue, look, I guessed right, haha. Meng Fantao's face flushed with excitement. Actually, he wasn't hurt at all. The sword slashed through the light shield of the prisoner cow, vomited blood and flew away, and fell into the distance, all of which he pretended.

After Meng Fantao was "injured", Xue Yuelin also pretended to be invincible and defeated, and then quietly left while the rest of the people were fighting, and met Meng Fantao who arrived here first in a remote place ten miles away from Tiandao Mountain Road.

"Hmm......" Xue Yuelin replied vaguely, thoughtfully.

"Escaping from the battle, barely surviving, I don't believe that Lu Hailong would do such a thing for no reason. Considering his realm, there is only one possibility that he will cross the tribulation!" Meng Fantao continued to say proudly.

"Having said that, what are your plans? I listened to your transmission, pretended to be injured and left the battlefield, but Lu Hailong didn't have the Xuanyuan Sword on his body! Not only that, but the two immortal swords of Chixiao and Chengying were also in the hands of Helian Xin and Jiang Huangu respectively, did you just want to kill Lu Hailong?" Xue Yuelin asked.

Meng Fantao smiled and shook his head: "What does it matter to me whether Lu Hailong lives or dies? Do you think he will deal with the Heavenly Tribulation unprepared? The two people in front of me have confirmed my guess, he must have hole cards!"

Xue Yuelin looked at the two tiny black dots in the sky from afar, and hesitated: "What do you mean...... Peerless Immortal Sword?"

"Of course. Don't forget, there are still four peerless immortal swords that have not yet appeared!" Meng Fantao didn't know that the Zhengang Sword had fallen into the hands of the Dragon Clan.

"Zhengang, Moyang, Qixing, Juque. Xue Yuelin whispered the names of the four peerless immortal swords.

Meng Fantao squinted his eyes and said, "I don't know if you have noticed it, that Liu Yinyin is carrying a fairy sword on her back." Although I couldn't see the blade, I felt a strong fluctuation of spiritual power as she flew over our heads. Besides, at the beginning of the war, why did she and her husband fly away from the battlefield? Liu Yinyin's own fairy sword had already been trampled underfoot, so why did she have to carry one more sword? It can be seen from this that the fairy sword in that sword sleeve is definitely not simple. So I'll send you a message right away. ”

In this way, the fairy sword behind Liu Yinyin must be a seven-star sword. "Xue Yuelin is controlled by Ye Shenrong, after the treasure exploration in Youlong County, the six sect masters once gathered in Tiandao Mountain on the matter of the Seven Star Sword, Ye Shenrong has never believed the explanations made by the few Taiqing Sect disciples, but Li Yuanxiao has already sworn a poisonous oath, and the six sect masters have no definite evidence, so the matter has to be abandoned.

Meng Fantao touched his beard: "No matter which one it is, it is a peerless immortal sword that is powerful in the world." It seems that Lu Hailong didn't know that there were two people behind him, otherwise he would have taken the peerless immortal sword to cross the catastrophe by himself. This further proves my speculation, what he originally wanted to stay in the sect, and the two Mahayana realm companions personally brought to help, what else would it be if it wasn't the peerless immortal sword? haha!"

Xue Yuelin poured a basin of cold water on Meng Fantao's head: "What if you know that it is a peerless immortal sword?

How do you snatch the sword? Are you just hiding in the distance and waiting for Lu Hailong to pick up the leak after the failure of the robbery?"

Meng Fantao snorted disdainfully: "It's not my style of doing things to passively pick up leaks, besides, I can't gamble on this matter, what if Lu Hailong succeeds in the robbery? He has cultivated into a sword immortal, let's still grab a fart! The time to do it can only be before Liu Yinyin hands over the fairy sword to Lu Hailong, act quickly and covertly, and don't let Lu Hailong find out." Now, although Lu Hailong didn't know that there were two people behind him, the sky was too empty, and our blades were trampled under our feet, so it was not appropriate to do it, so we would wait for Lu Hailong to land. When the time comes, you entangle Shi Chongyin, and I will deal with Liu Yinyin. "He has already thought about everything.

Xue Yuelin responded with a "yes", but her brows furrowed slightly. She is only in the middle stage of extinction now, and it is not easy to deal with Shi Chongyin in the late Mahayana period. She is quiet on the surface, but inside she has been thinking about her plan.

Within half a day, Lu Hailong flew to the Wuling Mountain Range. Shi Chongyin and Liu Yinyin also quietly landed. In the harsh winter, the branches of the trees are bare, and even in the woods, Lu Hailong's figure is clearly visible. Shi Chongyin and Liu Yinyin paid attention to him, but they didn't know that they had already been watched.

Lu Hailong didn't hesitate too much, and directly found a clearing on the top of the mountain to sit cross-legged, quietly closing his eyes and breathing. The catastrophe is coming, and the Taiqing Sect, the Dragon Clan, and the Immortal Demon are fighting...... Everything else had been forgotten for a moment, and his heart gradually calmed down.

Shi Chongyin and Liu Yinyin were prostrate on the slope half a mile away from the top of the mountain, and Liu Yinyin was very nervous. She looked at the lonely figure on the top of the mountain, squeezed Shi Chongyin's hand, and asked in a low voice, "Do you think Brother Lu can succeed?"

"Don't worry, Brother Lu, he is the most talented immortal cultivator I have ever seen, and he is the person I admire the most in my life, there must be no problem. Shi Chongyin has an indescribable trust and respect for this predecessor from the same sect. Lu Hailong's strong strength, steady style, wise mind, bold personality, coupled with a unique leadership temperament, show his special personal charm to the fullest.

"But no one knows what the situation was when we crossed the Heavenly Tribulation, when will we hand over the Seven Star Sword to him?" Liu Yinyin said worriedly.

Meng Fantao guessed correctly, Lu Hailong didn't know that Shi Chongyin and Liu Yinyin had been following him. In fact, it was originally said that the two of them would protect Lu Hailong, but at that time, the masters were deceived by the phantom red fox, and Lu Hailong thought that the decisive battle with the nine brothers of the dragon clan would end before the catastrophe came. After the battle of Suihan Mountain, the dragon clan hid again, and seeing that the period of the catastrophe was approaching, for the sake of the big war, Lu Hailong had to change his plan and said that he would not allow Shi Chongyin and his wife to follow. So, several masters of the Taiqing Sect discussed with the sect leader Li Yuanxiao and decided to let Shi Chongyin and his wife take the seven-star sword and follow secretly.

"Now that Brother Lu is pranayama, let's not disturb him. Let's wait for the catastrophe to come and rush over to him, lest he drive us back to protect the sect. Shi Chongyin replied.

At this moment, Meng Fantao and Xue Yuelin were hiding on a huge rock halfway up the mountain.

"Looking in the direction the two of them are facing, I can't see Lu Hailong at all. It seems that they are quite far away from Lu Hailong, so it is just right to start. Meng Fantao gently pulled out the Zhan Lu sword, ready to step forward and grab the sword.

Xue Yuelin, who was lying on the side, suddenly pressed his wrist and whispered, "Don't act rashly first." They shouldn't be handing over the Immortal Sword to Lu Hailong anytime soon. ”

Meng Fantao lowered his just-propped body again: "How do you say this?"

"They came after it was obviously not just for the sake of sending the Immortal Sword. When Lu Hailong crossed the catastrophe, they would inevitably stay aside to protect the Fa. Now they didn't show up in a hurry to send the fairy sword, which means that Lu Hailong has not yet started the tribulation. With Lu Hailong's temper, even if he accepted the immortal sword, he would definitely drive them back to guard Tiandao Mountain. After a little thought about it, you can know what the two of them are going to do. They will definitely send the Immortal Sword over when Lu Hailong is about to cross the catastrophe, and that is the best time for us to do it. If we do it now, if we lure Lu Hailong over, we will be in trouble. ”

Meng Fantao thought about it, Xue Yuelin was indeed right. If Lu Hailong is provoked, it is not to be said whether he can successfully seize the sword and retreat, if Lu Hailong starts to cross the catastrophe in the middle of the fight and involves himself, it will be over. But after thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate: "Sister Xue, now that Lu Hailong has not crossed the catastrophe, it is okay for us to step forward and grab the sword." How far away those two people are from Lu Hailong can only speculate, and if they rush forward at the last moment, they can't be too close, what if the Heavenly Tribulation causes a joint reaction and involves the two of us? Don't forget, those two are both in the late Mahayana realm, and they are not afraid of the Heavenly Tribulation. ”

Xue Yuelin smiled slightly: "Don't worry, they won't get too close." Otherwise, with the realm of Lu Hailong's late stage of the Tribulation, they would have been discovered a long time ago. Now let's approach the top of the mountain in a different direction, so that we can see Lu Hailong and the two of them at the same time. As soon as they moved, we intercepted them in the middle of the road, and when Lu Hailong was about to cross the catastrophe, seeing that the two of us would never dare to rush over, but might flee far away, he was afraid that the joint reaction would lead to an increase in the power of the catastrophe, then he would also cross a ghost! Take 10,000 steps back and say, if he makes a fool and rushes towards us, I also have a wonderful method, and I will definitely not be involved in the catastrophe, you can rest assured. ”

Meng Fantao nodded, and the two quietly climbed down the mountain rock and sneaked up from the other side of the hill until they saw Lu Hailong's figure. The two hid behind a big tree that was several people thick, and their eyes were refocused on Shi Chongyin and Liu Yinyin.

The corners of Ye Shenrong's mouth, who was far away in Tiandao Mountain to destroy demon beasts, rose and thought in his heart: "

Hmph, if you want to grab the sword with someone in the late Mahayana period, how can you not attract Lu Hailong's attention? At that time, as long as I wait and see what happens, Lu Hailong will definitely be busy with the tribulation and have no time to be distracted, if you take the immortal sword soon, I will control Xue Yuelin to give Lu Hailong a sword in the past and kill him, anyway, Xue Yuelin is now in the same realm as me, and it will not cause a joint reaction. If you don't succeed in seizing the sword immediately, and drag it out until Lu Hailong's tribulation is completed, then it depends on the outcome of his tribulation. If he dies, I will still take the sword with you; if he is born, I will strike you in the back, and then pretend to be a good person, and your Zhanlu sword will be mine! It is best if you kill the two of them and then be swept up in the heavenly calamity, and die with Lu Hailong, those two peerless immortal swords will be mine, hahaha!"

As for the most extreme Meng Fantao, although he was involved in the Heavenly Tribulation, he was lucky enough to survive the Tribulation and become a Sword Immortal, Ye Shenrong didn't even think about it. Meng Fantao has done so many bad things, and it will be difficult to overcome the demons in the Heavenly Tribulation, which is also the reason why he has been coveting other peerless immortal swords after obtaining the Zhanlu Immortal Sword, in his opinion, the more peerless immortal swords, the greater the probability of success in the tribulation.

All five people on the hill are waiting for the final moment.

Three hours, two hours, one hour...... The catastrophe was about to come, and Lu Hailong, who had finished pranayama, stood up, moved his muscles and bones slightly, looked up at the gray sky, and said to himself: "It's so calm, I thought that when the catastrophe came, there would be storms, lightning and thunder!" He drew out the immortal sword, ready to meet the final challenge of the path of cultivating immortals.

Seeing Lu Hailong preparing to cross the catastrophe, Shi Chongyin and Liu Yinyin jumped up from the hillside and ran towards him as fast as they could. Since Lu Hailong got up just now, Meng Fantao and Xue Yuelin have been quietly approaching Shi and Liu's side with their waists bent, and now is the time! Meng Fantao's eyes lit up, he stood up, and rushed over quickly with the "Thunder Flash" technique, while Xue Yuelin deliberately fell behind.

Shi Chongyin and Liu Yinyin were startled when they saw the figure rushing from the side, no matter what the situation was, don't affect Lu Hailong's tribulation.

At the same time, the catastrophe descended without warning. A dazzling light suddenly fell from the sky above Lu Hailong's head, enveloping his body, and suddenly, a terrifying pressure hit. He gritted his teeth and insisted, but found that this invisible pressure was simply irresistible, and he fell to the ground solidly, and the ground seemed to produce a huge suction force, so that he could not even lift his head. The fairy sword in his hand became heavier and heavier, and he couldn't hold it anymore, he clenched his palm, the back of his hand and forearm were full of bruised green tendons, but the hilt of the sword still pressed his palm to the ground. If he continued like this, his fingers would be crushed, and as a last resort, when his palm was barely moving, he let go of the fairy sword.

Strangely, the frozen ground at the top of the mountain was unexpectedly hard, and such a terrifying pressure did not press him into the ground. Lu Hailong felt as if the sky and the earth were two indestructible iron plates, and they were gradually getting closer, as if they were about to squeeze him into meat sauce.

"Is heaven and earth combined......" Lu Hailong gritted his teeth and thought in his heart, "Legend has it that before the Pangu God opened the heavens and the earth, heaven and earth were originally united, is this the origin of the Heavenly Tribulation......" In just a few breaths, he was already sweating profusely, his muscles were bulging, and his body's endurance was close to the limit. "Oh no, I can't hold it anymore......" Lu Hailong's face was flushed, and he didn't even dare to breathe, at such a critical juncture, he would be flattened if he was relieved of his breath, "Is it over...... is it" He seemed to hear the bones all over his body "crackling", and the hands supporting the ground trembled uncontrollably, and blood had oozed from the fingers of his ten fingers.

Just as Lu Hailong was about to give up, the pressure suddenly stopped increasing, although he still resisted painfully, at least he would not be crushed to death. He kicked the ground with his feet, arched himself little by little, and then turned around with difficulty, changing to a position of lying flat on his back to the sky, but it was even more difficult to sit up with his waist up.

For some reason, Lu Hailong remembered the Xuanyuan Sword that had comprehended the sword intent for several years: "Xuanyuan Sword, the first divine soldier of the Qinglong Continent, I don't know if you can break this power of the Heavenly Tribulation...... Moreover, the catastrophe is difficult to overcome, and it will never be as simple as just letting the immortal cultivators resist the pressure...... Alas, Xuanyuan Sword, Xuanyuan Sword, although I have been fortunate enough to use you for a while, but my ability is not as good as your legendary first master, Huanglong Sword Immortal...... "He suddenly had a spirit, Huanglong Sword Immortal was obtained after cultivating the Sword Immortal, in other words, he did not use the power of Xuanyuan Sword when he crossed the Heavenly Tribulation. Not only the Yellow Dragon Sword Immortal, but the other seventeen Sword Immortals had all successfully crossed the tribulation when they obtained the peerless Immortal Sword, thinking of this, Lu Hailong's spirit was lifted, "If the Heavenly Tribulation is easy to cross, then everyone is a Sword Immortal." I am a recognized master of cultivating immortals, if I fail to cross the tribulation, won't it make people laugh at it? Heh, success or failure is in this move!"

Lu Hailong supported the ground with his elbows, slowly lifted his upper body, and then straightened his arms and replaced them with palms to support the ground. Although his arms were shaking, he finally sat up. Just when he wanted to think about what to do next, Liu Yinyin shouted anxiously in his ears: "Brother Lu, take the sword!"

Lu Hailong was taken aback, why did Liu Yinyin suddenly appear here? He turned his head with difficulty, but found that the light enveloping him was extremely dazzling, and everything in the outside world could not be seen clearly, and only the sound of footsteps and fighting was faintly heard in his ears, "Liu Yinyin is not the only one!" A trace of uneasiness flashed in his heart.

With a "bang" sound, an object fell next to Lu Hailong, but he was powerless to reach for it. Judging from Liu Yinyin's eager shouts and the continuous fighting, it seemed that a critical situation had occurred, and Lu Hailong was flustered for a while. At this moment, the pressure from the Heavenly Tribulation suddenly changed.
