Sister, I don't want to be a furnace anymore. I'm about to become an immortal.

Chapter 86: The Power of Heavenly Tribulation

Xiao Yichen was stunned for a moment when he heard the other party's words. This news was too shocking for him.

The strength of the man in the painting has obviously reached the pinnacle of this world, and the energy in his body is actually the same as that of the other party.

Seeing Xiao Yichen so shocked, the mysterious man stood aside and waited quietly for him to digest it himself.

After a long while, Xiao Yichen recovered from his shock and looked at the mysterious man. He asked after a pause:

"Who is that man in the picture?"

After a long silence, I heard the man in front of me speak in a deep voice:

"Born to face the calamity, and perished because of it. We, the younger generation, cannot call him by his name; that would be blasphemy to him."

After just a few words, Xiao Yichen felt like he was struck by lightning again. His scalp was numb and he stood there in a daze, unable to come back to his senses for a long time. He was so shocked that he was speechless.

The previous scene appeared in my mind: a man came out to meet the disaster and fought to the sky, just to resist the disaster of their time. He never retreated even a little bit until his death.

It took a long time for Xiao Yichen to regain his composure.

"What is the relationship between him and me?"

"There is no relationship, but if you must say, the relationship between you and him is more like that of a senior and a junior brother."

Before Xiao Yichen could ask more, the man continued, "You all possess the same power within you, which can be considered a lineage from the same master. This power comes from the heavens, and we call it... Heavenly Tribulation."

This was another piece of information that shattered his brain. In just a few minutes, Xiao Yichen had been shocked several times in a row.

After digesting this series of information, Xiao Yichen slowly said, "Then what exactly do you, or the force behind you, want to do by looking for me?"

This time the mysterious man did not answer him, but looked at him with a look of pity, which made Xiao Yichen feel a little weird, but he didn't know how to ask.

After a long while, he slowly said:

"Nothing. Our mission is just to find you and bring you a message."

"What news?" Xiao Yichen asked subconsciously.

"Stop him."

"?" Xiao Yichen looked at the man in front of him in confusion, not understanding what he meant by that.

"These were the last words that lord left before he died in battle. He asked our ancestors to find someone of the same origin as him. Tens of thousands of years have passed, and we, the later generations, have long forgotten what they meant," the man said in a deep voice.

Xiao Yichen rubbed his brows. These three words were not unfamiliar to him. When he first survived the thunder tribulation, the mysterious figure he met also left him a message before disappearing. The words "stop him" were mentioned in it.

"Who exactly are we supposed to stop?" This question left him puzzled. At present, the only person related to this matter was the mysterious man in front of him, but it was obvious that the other party was also unaware of the secret.

And from what he said, these three words have been passed down from generation to generation of his ancestors, and it has been tens of thousands of years since then, which is enough to show their importance. But at the moment, he is confused.

"Having found you today, I've completed the mission I've been waiting for for tens of thousands of years. It also settles a cause and effect. What will happen to you in the future? It has nothing to do with us anymore. Farewell."

After saying that, the man turned around and prepared to leave. Xiao Yichen hurriedly called him and told him the purpose of his visit.

"Can you do me a favor? I have an enemy nearby, but they are connected to the Holy Alliance of the East Continent, and you happen to have a grudge against the Holy Alliance..."

However, before he could finish his words, the man interrupted him.

"The teachings passed down from our ancestors are not just those three words. They also state that we cannot get involved in anything you do. So, I apologize."

After saying that, the man did not stay any longer. Without even giving Xiao Yichen a chance to speak, he turned around and disappeared from his sight, as if nothing had happened.

After confirming that the other party had really left, Xiao Yichen stood there, feeling a little disappointed.

"I've been searching for over a month, and this is the end result. Not only did I not get any help, but I also feel inexplicably responsible."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but recall the seven words left by the divine figure during the thunder tribulation that day.

'He's right, stop him.'

After taking a long breath, Xiao Yichen slowly walked back into the house. What happened made him completely confused. He shook his head and said to himself:

"Forget it. Even if there really is a mission that needs me to complete, with my current strength, I can't even be considered cannon fodder. I should think about how to improve my cultivation."

Having said this, he realized that the surroundings were unusually quiet. He went to the window and looked out, and found that the disciples of the Meiyu Sect had disappeared long ago, and there was nothing on the ground except for the traces of the monsters. Just like what he had encountered before, the corpses of the monsters had all disappeared.

"It seems that when the man left, he also took those monsters away with him."

Lying back on the bed, Xiao Yichen closed his eyes. The news he learned tonight was too much and too shocking. He had to sort it out carefully. Unconsciously, he fell asleep. You know, now he will not feel sleepy even if he does not sleep for a long time.

It was not until the next day, when the sun was high in the sky, that he slowly woke up.

Seeing that he woke up, Xiao Zi poked her head out from her arms and rubbed his face, then went back to sleep.

"Now my only hope is gone. It seems my only option is to improve myself. Sigh, I wonder how long it will take before I have the strength to take revenge."

Now he had no idea what to do. He definitely couldn't go back to Qingfeng Pavilion. After all, from the moment he decided to take action against Liu Yang and the others, he couldn't have anything to do with Qingfeng Pavilion. Otherwise, the Holy Alliance would definitely vent its anger on them.

I lay in bed thinking for a long time, and suddenly I slapped my forehead and thought of a good place.

"How could he have forgotten about that strange tree? He's lived so long, maybe he knows some useful information."

Excited, he immediately stood up and left the room, flying quickly into the distance.

The destination is the Spring of Darkness, the swamp where the strange tree once lived.

"I wonder how the Youyin Spring has recovered. I can take a bath there again when I go back this time."

Thinking of this, he quickened his pace.

On a narrow path somewhere, a group of people were walking forward with depressed expressions. In the team, Yunmei was supporting an injured female disciple with an ugly look on her face.

At this moment, a figure suddenly flew over her head at an extremely fast speed, no slower than her, a cultivator at the initial stage of the Jindan realm.

Fearing that it was a hostile sect, Yun Mei immediately signaled all disciples to be silent. Everyone looked up and saw that the figure was flying farther and farther away.

Everyone understood what Yunmei meant, held their breath, and made no sound. In their current state, they really didn't want to cause any more trouble. They didn't dare to move forward until the figure completely disappeared from their sight.

Yunmei stared blankly at the figure that disappeared from her sight. For some reason, she felt a sense of familiarity.

Seeing that she was motionless, Mu Yang stepped forward and asked:

"What's wrong? Yunmei."

He shook his head lightly and looked away.

"It's okay, I'm just guessing the identity of that powerful person just now. Let's go back to the sect first."
