Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

Chapter 479 Inner Demon

The sky was as dark as ink, and the ninety-ninth step of the Great Dao was faintly visible in the chaos.

The corners of Lu Xunhuan's robe were torn by the strong wind, making a rustling sound. He stared at the last step, his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

Just as he was about to take a step, the white tiger's roar pierced through the clouds: "Wait a minute—"

"Young man, we will bless you with defensive strength."

In an instant, three rays of divine light descended from the sky.

The Vermillion Bird feathers transformed into a red cloak that wrapped around his shoulders.

The black tortoise armor pattern on the chest condensed into a black heart-protecting mirror.

The blue dragon scales grow along the arm armor in a winding manner.

The shadow of a white tiger raised its head and roared behind him.

The power of the four beasts merged into a pale golden light shield, enveloping Lu Xunhuan.

The Lady of the Nine Heavens called out from the bottom of the stairs, "Lu Xunhuan, since you have chosen to take that step, focus on resisting the thunder tribulation with all your strength. I believe you will become the Sword Emperor."

Lu Xun Huan responded loudly: "Thank you for the blessing of the Goddess Xuannu. I will go up."

With great determination, he took a step forward and stepped onto the ninety-ninth step.

After reaching the ninety-ninth step, he immediately felt different.

Here, the pressure suddenly increased several times.

Above the sky, the sun, moon and stars have dimmed.

There was chaos between heaven and earth.

The voice of the White Tiger God rang in Lu Xunhuan's ears.

"The thunder tribulation of fate ignores defense."

Lu Xunhuan couldn't help but frown.

What the hell, ignoring defense?

So what’s the use of the defense that everyone has built for themselves?

Xuanwu Divine Venerable said, "This Divine Venerable has sensed that you possess the attribute of resisting defense ignoring. It must be caused by your pet. Tell your pet to retreat down the stairs quickly and don't let it be killed. If it dies, you're finished."

Before the thunder fell, Lu Xunhuan shouted back, "Xiaojiu, quickly retreat. I need to use the attributes you bring to me. If anything happens to you, I'm finished."

Xiaojiu's pointed ears trembled twice, and he turned into a stream of light and leaped to the side of the Queen Mother of the West.

The sky suddenly collapsed at this moment.

Billions of lightning snakes tore through the chaos, and the dragon head formed by purple lightning bared its fangs.

A thunderstorm came suddenly.

Lu Xunhuan was surrounded by golden light, and the barrier of the four sacred beasts collapsed layer by layer like thin paper - the anti-disaster attribute rushed wildly in his meridians.

He suddenly realized that this thunder tribulation seemed to have a physical body. Each thunderbolt carried with it the three thousand great laws, grinding fine cracks into his bones.

Fortunately, he has the attribute of resisting ignoring defense, so the attribute of ignoring defense of the thunder tribulation of creation is invalid.

But even though the defense-ignoring attribute of the Thunder Tribulation of Creation is invalid, it does not mean that it has no attack power.

The attack power of the thunder tribulation was still unprecedented, and it hit Lu Xunhuan heavily.

Lu Xunhuan was shocked. Even with the ability to ignore defense and the support of the four divine beasts, the power of this thunder tribulation could still create cracks in his bones.

If not, wouldn't he have been destroyed?

Below the stairs, the Queen Mother of the West danced lightly with her long sleeves.

A pill emitting starlight hovered in front of Xiaojiu.

"Nine Revolutions Mysterious Heaven Pill can help you break free from your shackles."

She lowered her eyes and smiled softly, the hairpin in her hair reflecting a sharp blue light in the lightning.

"When he ascends to the throne of Sword Emperor..."

Xiao Jiu caught the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Heaven Pill, feeling the immense power within, and said clearly, "Thank you, Mistress."

The Lady of the Nine Heavens nodded slightly, with a loving look between her brows: "Little Nine, be good and eat."

Xiaojiu didn't hesitate to put the magic pill into his mouth and swallowed it.

An unparalleled power spread within her body, and a moment later, she was enveloped in golden light, and she broke through to the next level.

On the ninety-ninth step, Lu Xunhuan was resisting the thunder tribulation of fate, and suddenly read the new information after Xiaojiu's upgrade.

"Mount name: Nine-tailed Fox."

"Mount level: level 17."

"Mount speed: Level 10."

"Mount attack power: level 17."

"Mount defense: Level 17."

"The mount and its master share the same attribute: immortality."

"The mount brings the owner the following attribute: The owner's original defense is increased by 300%."

"The mount brings the owner the second attribute: the owner's original attack power is increased by 300%."

"The mount brings the master the third attribute: the master's cultivation speed is increased by 300%."

"The mount brings the owner the fourth attribute: critical hit resistance, full."

"The mount's fifth attribute to its owner: Resistance to ignoring defense, full."

"The mount's sixth attribute to its owner: Lightning Resistance, fully capped."

"The mount's seventh attribute to its owner: Ice resistance, fully capped."

Compared to the previous level, after Xiaojiu reached level 17, he gained an additional ice resistance attribute.

He endured the tempering of the thunder tribulation and sorted out his various resistances in his mind.

The Grape Ancestor gave him a golden hoop that is resistant to water, fire, electricity, poison, and mind interference. Its various attributes are almost full.

Obtaining a spiritual pet gave him the attributes of resistance to critical hits, resistance to ignoring defense, and resistance to ice.

He suddenly remembered that the mount also gave him resistance to electricity.

In other words, his resistance to electricity is doubled.

However, the double resistance to electricity is still not enough in the face of thunder tribulation.

It’s still the same principle. Thunder tribulation is not ordinary lightning, but the power of the Tao.

It was the Tao that brought him harm and put him through a life and death test.

Although the thunder tribulation from fate also caused him great pain, he was much safer with the defense of the four divine beasts, and his life was basically not in danger.

After a stick of incense, the thunder calamity of nature disappeared.

Thirty breaths later, Lu Xunhuan was suddenly faced with the inner demon thunder tribulation.

The thunder is millions and overwhelming.

He has the property of resisting interference from thoughts, which plays a certain role in resolving the inner demon's thunder tribulation.

However, the power of the great Dao contained in the inner demon thunder tribulation still caused him to suffer continuous trauma.

Moreover, after enduring for a while, he entered a fantasy world in the pain that felt like being bitten by thousands of ants.

He stood in the ruins of Yingzhou City.

From all directions, countless undead souls poured in like a tide.

Their faces were hideous, as if they hated him immensely.

"You killed us..."

"Give us back our lives..."

"You should die to atone for your sins..."

"You are ashamed of this world..."

"You are the eternal sinner..."

"Go to hell……"

Countless undead surrounded him and bit him madly.

"Go to hell..."

"Go to hell..."

Lu Xunhuan was filled with shame and was too embarrassed to look at these undead spirits.

He closed his eyes and let them bite and scratch him.

He'll soon be covered in bruises.

A charred city wall emerged in the lightning, and broken limbs and debris fell from the void.

The wails of the dead souls turned into pitch-black chains that wrapped around his heart. Black air swirled and gradually turned into black dragons that swooped down and struck the weakest part of Lu Xunhuan's heart.

Lu Xunhuan closed his eyes and felt that there was no place on his body that didn't hurt.

Compared to physical pain, heartache seems to be more deadly.

His heart was breaking and reuniting under the attack of the black dragons, and blood was dripping all over it.

It could explode completely at any time.

Thousands of resentful spirits screamed in unison, and the shadow of a black dragon pierced through his chest. Lu Xunhuan watched his heart crack inch by inch in the evil energy.

He instinctively wanted to give up resistance and die as punishment.

At the bottom of the stairs, Jiu Tian Xuan Nu and Xiao Jiu saw Lu Xun Huan half kneeling under the violent lightning attack.

The Lady of the Nine Heavens said, "Not good."

Xiaojiu's heart immediately hung in the air: "What's wrong with the master? Can't you bear it anymore?"

The Lady of the Nine Heavens said, "The inner demon's thunder tribulation not only attacks the body, but also the heart. Your master may have some regrets that the inner demon exploited. If he sinks into despair, he will give up trying and let the thunder tribulation blast him into ash."

When Xiao Jiu heard this, he became anxious: "What should I do? Lady Xuannu, please save him."

Jiu Tian Xuan Nu shook her head: "I can't save him. Everything depends on his own will. Try to call him and wake him up."

Xiaojiu quickly put his hands to his mouth and shouted, "Master, Master, Lu Xunhuan..."

In the illusion, Lu Xunhuan was filled with guilt and lowered his resistance, allowing countless undead to attack him without fighting back.

It seems that the only way to atone for one's sins is to pay with one's life and be killed by those undead spirits.

The golden bell around Xiaojiu's neck vibrated, and she cried out in a sobbing voice, "Master, you said you would take me to see the sunrise over the snow-capped peaks of Kunlun Mountains!"

The crisp ringtone and the penetrating shouts created ripples in Lu Xunhuan's heart.

It was like a breeze that blew away the thick fog, making Lu Xunhuan feel a little more sober.

Why is this voice so familiar?

Oh, yes, it’s Xiaojiu’s voice.

Xiaojiu is the spiritual pet that he recovered in Kunlun Mountain.

I went to Kunlun Mountain to seek the truth.

The goal of seeking the truth is to gain huge rewards so that one can freely travel between the two worlds.

There are still many survivors in that world, waiting for him to save them.

The dead are gone and cannot be brought back.

All we can do is to let the living people live a good life to make up for our mistakes.

Yes, I have to get over it and contribute to everyone's bright future.

How could you die here?

He withstood the violent force of the thunder tribulation and slowly stood up with great difficulty.

Break the inner demon for me.

The illusion shattered.

Lu Xunhuan suddenly opened his eyes, and the sword intent in his eyes soared into the sky.

Seventy-two sword patterns vibrated and hummed between the eyebrows, and a galaxy from outside the Ninth Heaven rolled back and transformed into the shadow of a giant sword that spanned the sky and the earth.

"Ten thousand swords return to the clan!"

"break!"

With a loud shout, thousands of swords merged into one, forming a huge super sword. It came from the depths of the sky and slashed towards the thunder tribulation with unparalleled power.

The sword light was like a rainbow piercing the sun, and the inner demon cloud was split into two halves.

In the dissipating lightning, the four beast patterns on his forehead shone brightly.

The Queen Mother of the West covered her slightly open red lips with her long sleeves and looked at the bloody figure standing straight.

Lu Xunhuan's torn sleeves fluttered in the strong wind, and the shadow of Wan Jian Chao Zong vaguely appeared behind him.
