Chapter 344: Master Defies the Heavenly Tribulation

"Only two moves are already this powerful. I really want to know the complete sword technique!"

"You’re missing the main point. The real issue is that even such a terrifying heavenly tribulation can’t do anything to the Sect Master."

"Hey! Hey! Don’t ignore me!"

"That’s right! The Sect Master is incredible!"

"Yes, yes! I know the Sect Master is amazing, but I want to learn this sword technique even more. I wonder how many sect contribution points it will take to exchange for the sword manual?"

"I’m talking here! Are any of you listening to me?"

The disciples who had been enthusiastically communicating through voice transmission suddenly fell silent.

Each of them quietly began calculating how many sect contribution points they currently possessed.

Clearly, more than one person had become interested in this sword technique.

Fu Young was equally surprised.

Xiao Shou had only taught him the first two forms of the sword technique, so those were the only ones he knew.

He had never seen the later forms before.

Now that he witnessed these new techniques, he immediately understood.

A delighted smile appeared on his face.

"It seems that Master didn’t spend his seclusion only cultivating. He also perfected the sword technique even further. This kind of creative talent... Master is truly extraordinary."

"So the beautiful man is actually this amazing!"

The green haired little creature’s flying posture immediately became much less graceful.

Its tiny wings flapped frantically, as though it were using far too much strength.

"Somehow... I’m suddenly starting to feel a little afraid of him."

"Ha..."

While converting and absorbing the lightning energy from the white tribulation lightning that had been dispersed by the water spiritual energy, Xiao Shou turned around to face the countless irregular masses of tribulation lightning created by the Ten Thousand Swords Technique.

He let out a slow breath.

Enduring the intense burning pain caused by the lightning tempering his body, his handsome face became slightly pale.

He raised the Dark Night Spirit Sword once more toward the irregular lightning masses that continued charging at him without hesitation.

His lips parted slightly.

"Sword Technique Fourth Form: Living Wood Fang!"

As his voice echoed through the sky, a pure green sword qi shot out from the tip of the Dark Night Spirit Sword.

The green sword energy gently divided into countless fine strands.

Under Xiao Shou’s divine sense, they wrapped tightly around every irregular mass of tribulation lightning, binding them in place.

Whenever the green sword energy was scorched black by the lightning energy, new strands immediately split off to replace them.

The process continued endlessly.

Not a single mass of tribulation lightning was able to escape.

Seeing this scene, everyone swallowed hard.

I want to learn it.

I really want to learn it.

I absolutely want to learn it!

"Even someone as adorable as me wants to learn this sword technique!"

At the moment when everyone fell silent, the green haired little creature wiped the drool from its mouth and spoke the thoughts that everyone else was secretly thinking.

Hearing this, Fu Young glanced at it with his dark eyes and said mischievously, "Can you even lift a sword?"

"Master~~~~~~~~~! You’re so mean!!!"

As a Flower of Time whose true body was extremely fragile, so delicate that even wind and rain could harm it, and whose body was impossibly heavy except when using the power of time and space, that single sentence dealt tremendous psychological damage.

Fu Young ignored the green haired little creature’s aggrieved cries and looked up at the sky.

He saw that the Heavenly Tribulation, which had already unleashed both the Fourth Nine Tribulation and the Fifth Nine Tribulation at the same time, still refused to give up after seeing how calmly his master had dealt with them.

The tribulation clouds began gathering once more.

His expression immediately darkened.

During the previous tribulation, he and his master had undergone it together, and several tribulations had overlapped, so there had been no way to prevent the heavenly tribulation from mutating.

But this time, his master was undergoing the tribulation alone.

He was also protected by an enormous amount of merit.

Even under such circumstances, the Heavenly Tribulation still intended to kill his master.

How could he possibly allow that?

Fu Young fixed his gaze upon the tribulation clouds.

Seeing that they truly intended to continue descending, he immediately activated his heavenly eyes.

A fragment of his true body appeared high above the tribulation clouds in the heavens.

The moment the Heavenly Tribulation showed any abnormal movement, he was prepared to immediately break it apart and devour it.

Perhaps sensing the threat posed by Fu Young, the tribulation clouds unwillingly rumbled with several loud thunderclaps before slowly dispersing.

Brilliant sunlight once again illuminated the land.

As if merely going through the motions, the heavens released only a small amount of spiritual dew filled with abundant life force.

The green haired little creature looked at the tiny amount of spiritual dew, then recalled how much spiritual rain had fallen when its master underwent tribulation, even enough for it to receive a generous share.

Because it already held an inexplicable fondness for Xiao Shou, it said sympathetically, "Beautiful man, you’re so pitiful! The Heavenly Tribulation bullied you so much!!!"

Completely unaware that his beloved disciple had just threatened the Heavenly Dao again, or that his disciple’s spirit pet was sympathizing with him while mistakenly believing he was a victim of outdated traditions, Xiao Shou continued binding the countless irregular masses of tribulation lightning.

At the same time, he continued converting and absorbing the white lightning energy contained within the water spiritual energy.

Within only a few breaths, he completely absorbed all of the white lightning energy.

He then began converting and absorbing the golden lightning energy restrained by the green sword energy.

At that moment, the life filled spiritual dew descended from the sky.

Although the quantity was small, Xiao Shou had created the Life Force Technique himself.

He immediately divided his attention once more and absorbed the spiritual dew, storing the life force contained within it inside his middle dantian.
