Chapter 404: The Killing Tribulation Arrives

Lin Qingzhi began to offer Lin Shuang advice.The main protagonist, Li An, and Shuangxue were still advancing through the Xiantian Tower.Shuangxue's pace began to slow.She believed that immortal arts could give her considerable combat power.Li An, however, continued to advance rapidly.Eat some pure immortal energy and save money on marrow cleansing fluid—that was Li An's thinking.Time flew by.Ninety geniuses spent a full month in the Xiantian Tower before reaching their respective limits.Li An reached the 79th floor.Zhao Shaolong and the others were a bit higher, at 81st or 82nd.Ren Ze climbed the highest, reaching the 86th floor.When he learned that Li An had only reached the 79th floor, he breathed a sigh of relief.The Xiantian Tower emphasizes comprehension.Cultivation, too, requires comprehension.Without comprehension, no matter how great one's talent, one's ceiling will never be very high. But he clearly saw that Li An, cultivating on the 79th floor, looked calm.He leisurely looked at the money in his account while making a remote purchase from Xiusheng Treasure Tower. After Shuangxue finished her training, the two of them left the floor hand in hand.Emperor Qi had brought them to a secluded paradise, their temporary residence.But with a wave of his hand, the Immortal Emperor Ni Nian declared that from now on, this would be their second home.Even if they left the Immortal Realm after a while, these buildings would still belong to them when they returned.Li An sat in the courtyard, receiving the goods.The usual four items: Marrow Cleansing Fluid, Giant Beast Blood Food, Concentrating Mind Pills, and powerful self-healing blood essence.After receiving the goods, he began to focus on improving his combat effectiveness.Li An now had only one worry.He was still a little short of mastering fluid mechanics, seemingly due to insufficient practice, and hadn't yet fully formed muscle memory.Thinking of this, an exhausted Li An fell asleep.Shuangxue, swinging on the swing nearby, suddenly frowned. Because Li An didn't lie down in bed, but instead, his head tilted to the side, he fell asleep in the yard.This didn't seem normal.She hurried forward, wanting to know what had happened to Li An.As expected.Li An's forehead began to sweat. Although his eyes were closed, his face showed signs of pain.Frost Snow was nervous, and she clenched Li An's hand, clearly feeling his rising body temperature.What had happened?Meanwhile,Lin Shuang heard that Shuang Xue had left the building, and with a nervous heart and a plan in mind, she headed for her residence.My sister had said...Don't treat Li An as an enemy.Li An was Shuang Xue's dearest love.If you're rude to Li An, Shuang Xue will definitely be rude to you.Only after dealing with Li An would she have a chance to talk to Shuang Xue alone.There's a word called "green tea."There's a craft called tea art.No man in the world could resist this craft. Although Lin Shuang had a good idea, she was still nervous.When she reached Shuangxue's door, her expression suddenly changed.Lin Shuang clearly saw Li An lying on the ground.At that moment, all thoughts about tea art were forgotten.Her eyes were solemn, and she hurried in without saying hello.A whiff of fragrance wafted in, and Shuangxue frowned and looked up, asking, "Are you okay?"Lin Shuang hurriedly said, "Li An has gone into a state of infatuation.""Hmm?" Shuangxue felt a sense of foreboding. "But before he fell into a coma, he showed no signs of infatuation.""No," Lin Shuang said gravely, her face grave. "I said infatuation is a form of magical arts.""Forbidden magical arts: infatuation.""Li An, you've been possessed!"Lin Shuang's hands moved as she spoke, a rainbow of light intertwining between them.The Guanyin Pure Heaven Jade Bottle appeared in her palm.Two or three drops of white water spilled from the bottle. Lin Shuang took the white water with her fingertips and quickly pressed it against several key acupuncture points on Li An's body.The white water was injected into Li An's body by Lin Shuang.Shuangxue, holding Li An in her arms, touched his cheek; the temperature seemed to have stopped rising."Hurry and go!" Lin Shuang took a deep breath, her expression still grim.She summoned her immortal shuttle.The three of them boarded.She drove the shuttle towards her mountain gate at lightning speed. On the way, she glanced at the worried Frost Snow and said seriously, "This technique of infatuation is forbidden in the Immortal Realm!""It's too vicious!""It's invisible and colorless. Once the caster is struck, they'll die within half a day.""If I hadn't already mastered countless immortal techniques, I wouldn't have known Li An's situation.""In short, someone in this Immortal Realm wants to kill Li An!""And they're extremely powerful. Those powerful beings who can learn forbidden techniques are great figures who aren't bound by rules."Frost Snow hummed, glancing expressionlessly at Lin Shuang.She lowered her head, took out the Star Platform, and quickly informed the Five Elements Emperor of the matter.Now, in the entire Immortal Realm, she was the only one who could be completely trusted.Everyone else was suspect!A year of cultivation in the Cultivation Temple had almost made her and Li An forget their own circumstances.As soon as they left the Cultivation Temple, a murderous calamity descended.How much did those people want Li An dead?! Lin Shuang couldn't help but ask, "Shuangxue, does Li An have any enemies?"Shuangxue said indifferently, "Don't you know Li An's background?""What?" Lin Shuang was puzzled."He's the son of destiny in the human world. Those who want to kill him are spread across the heavens and the myriad realms.""Huh?" Lin Shuang was shocked.She had been cultivating in the immortal realm for eighteen years, oblivious to the world outside, completely unaware of the turmoil outside.At this moment, Lin Shuang suddenly realized.She quickly said, "Don't worry, Shuangxue. It's definitely not my master and his men who did it.""Why?" Shuangxue asked expressionlessly.Lin Shuang didn't offer any foolish answers like "because they're good people."She said seriously, "My master and his uncles are among the current rulers of the immortal realm.""Even if they wanted to kill Li An, they wouldn't do it themselves. They'd be too suspicious."Shuangxue remained silent, wondering why it couldn't be someone else's doing.At the same time, the Five Elements Emperor had also sent back a message. "Leave Lin Shuang alone. Don't go with her to the Holy Mountain of the Immortal Realm.""Let Lin Shuang and Li An go alone.""Because they want to see you!"Shuangxue frowned, wondering why they were looking at me."You're the only recovered disabled person in the universe. You possess something extraordinary enough to drive those powerful figures crazy.""Don't worry, they won't dare touch Li An.""I'm watching."Hearing this, Shuangxue pursed her lips and finally said, "Stop."Lin Shuang was stunned."I won't go with you. Li An is in your care."Shuangxue turned and looked directly at Lin Shuang.Lin Shuang's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly asked, "Why?"Shuangxue shook her head, "Nothing.""Take good care of Li An."With that, she opened the cabin door and left.Lin Shuang looked helplessly at the man lying in the back seat, her mood suddenly sour.But her intuition told her that something big was about to happen.
