Immortal Road.

Looking at the roaring and raging Nine Heavens Thunder Pool above, with its surging plasma, it was a sign that the Six-Nine Thunder Tribulation was about to descend.

How could the Ice Python and Lord Yanxi dare to make a move?

Once caught in the lightning tribulation, they would be severely injured, even if they didn't die, leaving them stranded in a precarious situation with extremely unpleasant expressions.

"Fellow Daoist Ice Python, what did you say before we came that Shui Bingyue was no threat? And now look at you?"

Lord Yanxi was furious!
He now truly understands how unreliable this demon is, repeatedly getting himself into trouble time and time again, and now he's gotten himself into this situation.

It would have been better not to join forces at all. They could have simply stayed in the shadows and perhaps found an opportunity to launch a surprise attack on Lin Shan in the future. Instead, they were exposed and put in a passive position.

Why bother with all this?
"Impossible! When I pulled her into the sealed land, we fought for over a hundred years, and she was still just a powerful cultivator. When exactly did she secretly transform her primordial spirit behind my back?"

The ice python was incoherent and incredulous. It had always thought that Shui Bingyue couldn't cause any trouble under its nose. As long as it could completely escape, this woman would be its for the taking, and it would also get the Ice Soul Inheritance and the qualification for ascension!

Little did anyone know that Sailor Moon had been secretly accumulating strength, holding back in her attacks while sealed, all in preparation for a final showdown once she was freed.

"You can't escape today. I'm in charge of this secret realm. Since you don't dare to make a move, then it's my turn!"

Despite the lightning tribulation above her head, Shui Bingyue transformed into a white rainbow and shot towards the ice python.

The lightning bolts from the sky came windingly towards them. The ice python was startled and hurriedly shook its head and tail to run away and avoid them, but its huge body, which was hundreds of miles long, was too obvious to bend or dodge.

"Boom~~"

Thunder was clearly enraged. Upon discovering the target of the disruption, it immediately split into two.

The lightning pool in the sky also instantly unleashed its power, firmly locking the ice python in place, and an even deeper and stronger lightning tribulation began to brew!

"No, get out of here!"

The ice python felt a chill run down its spine, and in fright, it coiled up and twisted, quickly shrinking into a ball to resist the lightning tribulation. It had no time to pay attention to the culprit.

Sailor Moon landed a successful blow, and White Rainbow instantly turned back.

This time, the target is Lord Yanxi!

Lord Yanxi was startled. "Oh no, it's coming for me?"

Without saying a word, he turned and ran, but this Void Secret Realm was the place where the Ice Soul was inherited, which was like half a home field for Shui Bingyue. Endless cold air instantly erected ice walls in front of him!

Clang clang clang clang clang.
Yanxi God immediately went around him, but then ice mirrors rose up in all directions, blocking all his paths.

Even if we can't stop them, just buying them a little time is enough.

"Fellow Daoist, let's talk this out. My purpose in coming here is not to target you."

"Targeting him directly is even less effective!"

Sailor Moon made a close-range attack and retreated, while the lightning pool in the sky split again and locked onto a third target!
Sensing that he was being targeted by the Heavenly Tribulation, Lord Yanxi finally panicked. His first priority was not to berate the Ice Python for betraying his teammates, but to hurriedly begin to resist the lightning tribulation.

This dramatic tale of three people undergoing tribulation simultaneously unfolded in a lively and captivating way.

Lin Shan wasn't worried about Shui Bingyue, and besides, worrying wouldn't help. He wasn't a man in a bamboo hat and didn't have the ability to help her through the tribulation, so he could only go down first to rescue Lin Fan and Brother Chicken from the ice crevice.

To his surprise, those two didn't need him to lift a finger; they had already escaped on their own!
"Pah, pah, pah! You stinking worm, how dare you scheme against me?"

Chicken Brother shook off the ice shards on its iron beak, and the five-colored divine light on its body gathered in its wings. It was with this that it had just broken the seal. The Ice Python had indeed thought too simply to trap it.

Lin Fan was not to be outdone, and looking at the lightning tribulation in the sky, he was eager to try it out.

"If I could absorb and transform the energy from their tribulation lightning, it would probably be enough to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. Should I give it a try?"

"Oh, no!"

Lin Shan quickly interrupted his crazy idea. Using someone else's tribulation lightning as a breakthrough was something he had never heard of before.

The three of them watched quietly as Shui Bingyue handled the situation with ease, clearly having long been capable of breaking through to a higher realm, but had been suppressing it and holding back. This was merely a formality.

Although the ice python was in a sorry state, it was still in its demonic form, with thick skin and flesh, and it could withstand even being blasted to pieces by lightning.

But not Lord Yanxi!
He was merely an avatar of Yuan Nian this time, with limited abilities, and was completely unable to cope with the lightning tribulation. It was clear that the tribulation was on the verge of collapse after the first few waves.

Even worse, seeing that he was struggling, Sailor Moon charged at him despite the lightning!
"No, why are you bothering me instead of the Ice Python?"

Overwhelmed by the situation, Lord Yanxi was struck by lightning and attacked by Shui Bingyue. He was unable to hold on to his own and was forced to open a void passage.

"Girl, you should be merciful when you can. If you push me too far, I'll unleash my true form. By then, how much of your strength will you have left after your tribulation?"

"Oh? You dare to descend in your true form? Then come on!"

Sailor Moon was not afraid at all, and looked at him with a cold smile as he put on airs.

Knowing he couldn't fool anyone, and that it would take Lin Shan's main body half a day to arrive, Yanxi God Lord would have to spend even more time. Thinking that his avatar had been waiting for so long, yet was about to perish before achieving anything, he struggled desperately and cried out in despair.

"No, this shouldn't be happening. The ice python has ruined me! The ice python has ruined me!"

Boom! ! !

The heavenly tribulation pierced down, instantly burning it to ashes.

The God of Anxi ended things hastily, having spent three months lurking in the forest, plotting with the Ice Python to devise a meticulous plan, and even accurately predicting the current situation.

The only unexpected variable was Sailor Moon, who was cruelly and unjustly killed by the Ice Serpent!
Lin Shan sighed in bewilderment. This Yanxi Divine Lord was simply a laughingstock. It was understandable that he wanted to avenge Grandmaster Duan Tong, but why did he have to choose the Ice Python to cooperate with?

Now he's lost both his wife and his army, and even got himself involved!
He estimated that Lord Yanxi would be so angry he would vomit blood when he returned. Moreover, this battle, which brought the situation from the shadows to the light, exposed the hostile relationship between him and Lin Shan, making him wary.

The next time they face each other, the roles will be reversed, and he will be the one to cause trouble for the Ghost Valley Holy Land!

Lin Fan and Brother Chicken were enjoying the spectacle even more.

"Whoa, we'll conquer this holy land! We've even dared to take on Penglai, what's there to be afraid of in a mere Ghost Valley?"

"Go back and mobilize troops, then raze them to the ground!"

To raze the holy land?

Lin Shan's heart skipped a beat. What a great idea!
However, the most important thing right now is to deal with Penglai. He made an appointment with the great demon Qu Gong and the sea tribe to go to Penglai and cause a big mess. He will notify the Red Lotus Ancestor and the Luosong Alliance to mobilize together and definitely skin them alive.

As for the Ghost Valley Holy Land, besides flattening it, there is another invisible method that can take it without bloodshed.

That old bastard Yanxi can also have someone else do it for him.

As for the candidate, his eldest son, Qianbu, is a good starting point.
While they were watching the battle, Shui Bingyue was not idle. Instead, she braved the lightning tribulation to chase after the ice python!

"Are you crazy! The tribulation of the primordial spirit is the most severe lightning punishment in the lower realm. Aren't you afraid of failing the tribulation and dying?"

The ice python couldn't understand the madman's actions. At this critical moment, with ascension imminent, he still had the mind to attack from both sides simultaneously, while it was nearly killed by the attacks. The two chased each other, the ice python leaping and bounding through the secret realm, traversing beneath the glacier, trying to use the terrain to shake off its pursuer and buy itself a chance to catch its breath. But Water Ice Moon moved with the same ease!

At this moment, her hair danced wildly, locked by the lightning from the sky, like a female war goddess, with ice palaces popping out from her fingertips, scattering like a kaleidoscope.

Countless ice mirrors were arranged in different key passages, reflecting sunlight and piercing through glaciers, blinding the ice python and causing its consciousness to repeatedly hit walls, making it spin endlessly within a fixed range like a headless fly.

"Go, you can ascend now. I swear I will not bother you again. I don't want the Ice Soul inheritance. Please let me go, considering I was once the Ice Soul Fairy's mount!"

The demon screamed shrilly as it was struck by a sudden lightning bolt, tumbling onto the ice and scattering debris everywhere.

Sailor Moon was also badly injured, staggered by the Six-Nine Lightning Tribulation and almost knelt down, but it was clearly not fatal.

She curled her lips into a smile and gestured with her hand outstretched.

"Here comes the sword!"

The moon-patterned silver sword that Lin Shan carried hummed and vibrated violently as it instantly tore through the air and landed in her hand.

It circled once and swept past in a flash, instantly severing the ice python's tail.

Blood dripped and splattered across the sky!

"Ice Soul Sword Technique, you've already mastered the Primordial Spirit Sword?"

The ice python cried out in pain, terrified out of its wits. It knew all too well the power of the Ice Soul inheritance, especially the Ice Soul Fairy's swordsmanship, which was so skillful that upon mastering it, one could comprehend the laws of ice, making it a true immortal swordsman. Otherwise, it would not have been able to establish the Ice Soul Immortal Dynasty in the vast immortal realm!
Shui Bingyue's slender white fingers twirled the sword, and the silver sword with moon patterns split into light and shadow, with wisps of white smoke rising, almost draining all the cold air in the secret realm, and the glacier under her feet was melting rapidly.

Two lightning bolts struck from the left and right, and taking advantage of the Ice Python's preoccupation with its own problems, Shui Bingyue made her move again!

This time, the sword was aimed at the snake's head, but it suddenly tilted as it approached the head, narrowly missing the snake. It turned out that the ice python had activated its refining mark in the Moon Pattern Silver Sword and was vying with Water Ice Moon for control of the spiritual treasure.

Under the Six-Nine Thunder Tribulation, a man and a python were locked in a life-or-death struggle, while Lin Shan and the other two could only watch helplessly from below.

Until a ripple came from the distant horizon, the beam of light that had been enveloping the water ice moon solidified again, faintly emitting a powerful pulling force.

"Ascension Path!"

Shui Bingyue was in a great hurry. She had to complete her tribulation in the lower realm in order to receive the Heavenly Dao's reward. If she ascended to heaven too early, she would lose this great opportunity.

Above the passage, a cacophony of sounds emanated from the celestial realm, sounding more like interference than help.

"May Changji ascend to heaven swiftly, may it be swiftly ascend to heaven!"

"shut up!"

Despite being severely injured by the lightning tribulation, the ice python suddenly opened its mouth and burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, it seems someone in the Ice Condensation Pavilion in the Immortal Realm doesn't want to see you having too much of a smooth ride in the mortal world, and is urging you to ascend as soon as possible! Hurry up and go, why are you arguing with a little snake from the mortal world like me?"

Shui Bingyue's eyes instantly turned cold, and when she looked up at the heavens, she seemed to meet the gaze of a pair of immortals.

It seems that even if he ascends to the upper realm, he will likely face even more severe challenges. But before he leaves the lower realm, he must kill those who should be killed and take what he deserves!
The Golden Palace Thunder Pool has its own rhythm and will not be disturbed by the Immortal Realm. Heavenly punishments come one after another, mercilessly crushing both.

Finally, they both arrived at the final 6954th tribulation!
"Hahahaha, as long as I can withstand this calamity, I will live!"

"You die!"

The struggle for the Moon Pattern Silver Sword continues, and it is clear that Shui Bingyue has the upper hand and is about to completely reclaim her spiritual treasure and expel the Ice Python's consciousness from it!
This lightning tribulation erupted with ultimate light, completely encompassing heaven and earth within its domain, and even Lin Shan and the others unconsciously closed their eyes.

The crisp sword cry instantly turned into a deep, muffled sound!

With the end of the tribulation, the battle for the Ice Soul finally came to a close.

puff-

The ice python's massive head was severed, its eyes blank and lifeless. Until its last moment, it seemed to have come to terms with its destiny: to serve as a trial for the disciple who would inherit the Ice Soul legacy.

When the inheritance ends, it is time for one's own death.

In an instant, it suddenly realized that it was merely a link left behind by the Ice Soul Fairy, and its fate had long been predetermined. Few people in the mortal realm could break the fairy's arrangements.

Sailor Moon won at the starting line because she was the rightful successor. No matter how much this prodigy schemed, even with the blood of the Ice Spirit Illusion Python flowing through his veins, he could not turn the tables!

My entire life has been like walking on thin ice.

The ice serpent perished, carrying a heavy sense of relief.

A sweet fragrance filled the air. Shui Bingyue was surrounded in the center, receiving the sweet dew of heaven and earth. From an outside perspective, one could even see an ice tree emerging from the ground three inches above her head.

Lin Shan knew this was a sign that his spiritual root was transforming from a mortal to a celestial root!

Meanwhile, the upper realm was urging them frantically, and the ascension passage was being violently pulled, trying to move and carry Shui Bingyue away.

"Ascend quickly, ascend quickly!"

"Shut up!"

It's clear that someone above doesn't want to see her receive Heavenly rewards in the mortal realm, and is constantly trying to undermine her efforts, obviously with malicious intent.

Even with her extraordinary composure, Sailor Moon was forced to be gradually pulled into the air.

"Ice Moon!"

Lin Shan hurriedly reached out his hand, wanting to say something to her, but the words caught in his throat and could only be uttered as one sentence.

"Take care on your journey."

"Brother Lin, take care of yourself too."

Sailor Moon tried her best to stop ascending, wanting to stay below for a while longer, but her body grew higher and higher, gradually leaving this place behind.

Her gaze toward Lin Shan softened again, unusually filled with expectation.

"I am in the Ice Condensation Pavilion in the Immortal Realm. This is an affiliated sect of the Ice Soul Immortal Dynasty. Remember to come and find me after you ascend to immortality. Don't forget!"

"I understand, Ice Condensation Pavilion."

Lin Shan muttered to himself, and he could see that after absorbing the sweet dew of heaven and earth, the figure finally received a ball of light before entering the immortal realm, which seemed to be a reward from the heavens!
"Bingyue, take care."

He never expected that his rescue mission would turn out this way, ending with Sailor Moon using her tribulation to achieve her goal.

"Brother Lin, I hope that when we meet again, we can both break free from constraints and take control of everything."

A snowflake drifted down from the sky, and Lin Shan gently reached out to catch it.

Inside is the sealed Void Butterfly. (End of Chapter)
