The Emperor of Zongmen Workers is here

Suddenly, dark clouds filled the sky, swirling and surging like black ink, with lightning flashing in between, as if threatening to tear the entire world apart. Everyone on the flying boat felt a pang of fear as they watched this terrifying scene.

At this moment, a fierce wind howled through the flying boat, making everyone's clothes rustle. The mountains in the distance, shrouded in dark clouds, looked particularly gloomy, as if they were also worried about the coming storm.

Feng Jingchen and Zhong Lixiu exchanged a glance, seeing determination and fearlessness in each other's eyes. Knowing they were about to undergo a tribulation, they resolutely flew into the air, away from the spirit boat, toward the approaching thunderbolt.

However, when the first thunderbolt was about to strike, a strong airflow suddenly hit them, blowing them away from their original position, and the two of them unexpectedly landed temporarily on a remote hilltop.

This mountaintop was rocky and overgrown with weeds. Feng Jingchen and Zhongli Xiu steadied themselves, silently groaning. But now there was no escape; they could only brace themselves for the thunderbolt.

"Big Brother, this place is really remote, but it's good too. It's just right for me to concentrate on overcoming the tribulation." Zhongli Xiu said with a smile on his face.

Feng Jingchen nodded slightly and said solemnly, "Third Junior Brother, we must not take this tribulation lightly. The combined force of our tribulation lightning is immense. We must deal with it with all our might."

Everyone on the flying boat watched the approaching calamity cloud nervously, worry written all over everyone's face.

Jiang Qingwu gripped her sword tightly, her palms dripping with sweat. She stared at the distant mountaintops, silently praying, "I must succeed."

Lin Muci clenched his hands together, bit his lips, his eyes full of nervousness: "They will definitely be able to do it, they will definitely be able to do it."

Mo Yunsheng frowned slightly, a hint of worry in his eyes, but more of it was trust in them: "Second Senior Sister, don't worry. The brothers have gone through so much hardship, they will definitely succeed!"

Su Chen looked at the sky quietly, thinking to himself: "Big Brother and Third Brother are very powerful, they will definitely survive this disaster."

The first thunderbolt came crashing down, roaring like a giant silver dragon and rushing towards them.

Feng Jingchen and Zhongli Xiu activated their spiritual power at the same time, their bodies shone brightly, and they withstood the first thunderbolt.

The powerful impact caused their bodies to tremble slightly, and the rocks under their feet instantly collapsed.

They felt as if their internal organs were displaced and they were in great pain, but there was no sign of retreat in their eyes.

"Hmph, this Nascent Soul stage tribulation thunder is nothing more than this." Zhongli Xiu said through gritted teeth, with a stubborn look on his face.

Feng Jingchen said in a deep voice, "Third Junior Brother, don't be careless. The thunder from now on will only get stronger."

The second thunderbolt fell immediately, even more powerful than the first. Feng Jingchen and Zhongli Xiu gritted their teeth and resisted it with all their might.

Spiritual energy surged around their bodies, forming a solid shield. The thunder struck the shield with a resounding roar, sending sparks flying. The surrounding weeds were uprooted by the powerful air currents, sending them flying through the air.

At this moment, the sky darkened even further, and dark clouds seemed to weigh down everyone's heads. The air around the flying boat became heavy, making it difficult to breathe.

Lin Muci was so nervous that she almost cried out. Her heart was beating rapidly. She smiled wryly and said worriedly, "The fact that the two of them chose to undergo the tribulation together is really causing trouble for us around here. We must make sure they don't affect the lives around us."

Mo Yunsheng frowned even more tightly, and silently cheered them on in his heart: "Hold on."

Feng Ci shouted towards the two of them, "Big Brother! Fly further away! Don't let us get struck by the lightning!"

When the people on the spirit boat heard Feng Ci's nonsensical words, the tense atmosphere suddenly lessened and they all chuckled. This sound was not shouted out through spiritual power, so how could the two people who were undergoing the tribulation over there hear it?

It was just a joke Feng Ci made to ease the atmosphere when he saw that his junior uncle and his senior and junior sisters were worried that the two thunder tribulations would collide with each other and the power would be too great, causing an accident.

The third thunderbolt came down like a mountain. Feng Jingchen and Zhongli Xiu tried their best to resist it. Their bodies were blown backwards by the powerful impact, hitting the rocks and spitting blood from their mouths.

"Senior Brother, this thunderbolt is too powerful." Zhongli Xiu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a trace of solemnity in his eyes.

Feng Jingchen's face was pale, but his eyes remained firm: "Third Junior Brother, we can't give up. We must persevere."

The fourth, the fifth... thunderbolts fell one after another. Feng Jingchen relied on his strong strength and firm belief to resist stubbornly.

Zhongli Xiu was forced to reveal his dragon form by the double power of the thunder tribulation. He realized that he and his senior brother could not be too close to each other, otherwise they would have to endure two thunder tribulations. He soared into the thunderclouds and bathed in thunder and lightning.

Although their bodies were exhausted by the baptism of heavenly thunder, their eyes remained firm.

Every strike of thunder made them feel like they were in purgatory, suffering unbearably. But they knew that only by enduring it could they gain a new life.

On the flying boat, everyone's mood fluctuated with the falling thunder, but everyone firmly believed that the two would successfully survive the thunder tribulation.

Su Chen clenched his fists tightly, his heart filled with admiration: "Big Brother and Third Brother are really amazing, their perseverance is admirable."

"Your perseverance is no worse than theirs." Jiang Qingwu gave a pertinent comment after hearing Su Chen's emotional voice.

The cold voice woke Su Chen up. He turned around and looked at Jiang Qingwu in shock, his heart tightening: Junior Master-Uncle really saw everything...

Jiang Qingwu looked back at Su Chen in confusion, looked him in the eyes sincerely and said, "You are no worse than any of us. Let's encourage each other, Achen!"

Feng Ci heard the conversation between the two and joined in: "Su Chen, you have only built your foundation in two months! Before you envy others, why don't you take a look at what you have done? Wuwuwu, my junior uncle and I have built our foundation at about the same time, and we are still in the late stage, while my junior uncle is already in the middle stage of the Golden Core..." Feng Ci was stunned for a moment when he said this, and said in surprise: "No! Junior uncle! You were in the early stage of the Golden Core before, how come you are already in the middle stage in just half a year!"

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu hurriedly laughed and comforted him: "Aci, you are a typical latecomer! I believe that after you return to the sect and reflect on your experience, you will definitely be close to the Golden Core stage."

"Thank you, but I'm not comforted." After Feng Ci said that, he sat alone and stared at Feng Jingchen and Zhongli Xiu's calamity clouds in the distance in a daze. He secretly encouraged himself to catch up with Junior Master and the others as soon as possible!

In the distance, Feng Jingchen and Zhongli Xiu were struck by lightning and suffered terribly. Finally, they endured the last moment.

When the last thunderbolt disappeared, spiritual rain washed over the mountaintop that had just been completely disfigured by the thunderbolt. Everyone cheered and celebrated for Feng Jingchen and Zhongli Xiu, while hurriedly taking out various containers to receive the gift from heaven.

Jiang Qingwu's face showed a bright smile, his eyes full of joy: "They succeeded, that's great."

Feng Ci jumped for joy and exclaimed, "Great! They really did it."

Su Chen and Lin Muci hurriedly prepared suitable elixirs to replenish their spirits. Mo Yunsheng also showed a gratified smile, feeling proud of his senior brothers.

After the thunderstorm, a gorgeous rainbow appeared in the sky, and everyone's worries about the two people's thunderstorm finally stopped.

Feng Jingchen and Zhongli Xiu slowly landed on the flying boat. There was fatigue on their faces, but more of it was the joy of success.

"Thank you!" The two took the pills handed over by Lin Muci and Su Chen and expressed their gratitude.

Jiang Qingwu said with a smile, "To celebrate Feng Jingchen and Zhong Lixiu's breakthroughs, let's have barbecue and hot pot today!"

When everyone heard this, they became excited.

Feng Ci and Zhong Li Xiu said happily, "Great, great! I've been craving barbecue and hot pot for a long time. Junior Master's secret dipping sauce recipe is truly captivating!"

Lin Muci echoed: "I agree."

Mo Yunsheng also nodded and said, "That's a good idea. We can eat and chat at the same time and relax our tense mood."

Su Chen smiled and said, "I'll go prepare the spirit meat."

"I'll go with you!" Mo Yunsheng caught up with Su Chen and contributed his part to the dinner.

"I'll go fry the hot pot base." Jiang Qingwu said.

"Then I'll go wash the spiritual vegetables and prepare the hot pot." Lin Muci also said.

"Senior Sister, let me help you wash!" Zhongli Xiu, who was standing aside, followed Lin Muci.

"It's just right, take some fresh fish out of your mouth and clean it." Lin Muci instructed.

"Okay, it's guaranteed to be delicious!" Zhongli Xiu said happily.

"Then let's go make a fire, add charcoal and build a stove." Feng Ci, who had earth spiritual roots, and Feng Jingchen, who had fire spiritual roots, saw that everyone had been assigned tasks and started to move.

So, everyone got busy. They set up a barbecue grill and hot pot at the foot of the mountain where Feng Jingchen and his companions had survived their tribulation, and prepared various ingredients. Soon, the aroma of the barbecue and the steam from the hot pot filled the entire mountain.

Everyone sat together, eating barbecue and hot pot and chatting.

Lin Muci said excitedly: "Big Brother and Third Brother are amazing! This breakthrough is simply amazing, reaching the Nascent Soul stage in one fell swoop."

Mo Yunsheng smiled and said, "Yes, I will also practice hard in the future and strive to catch up with my senior brothers and sisters as soon as possible!"

Su Chen nodded and said, "I have to say, now that we are stronger, we will be more confident in facing the evil cultivators and demons. Now there are still more than 80 years before the demon tide. I hope that by then we can all become the backbone of resisting the demon tide."

Zhongli Xiu and Feng Jingchen were well aware of the difficulties of the Demonic Tide in the Secret Realm, not to mention the current situation of scarce resources. The two listened in silence for a while, and their hearts became even more concerned about their future cultivation.

Jiang Qingwu, not wanting to dampen everyone's enthusiasm, simply said calmly, "While their breakthrough is a good thing, we still can't let our guard down. The conspiracy within the Youhuang Secret Realm has been exposed, and the evil cultivators and demons won't let this go. We must remain vigilant against their return."

While eating barbecue, Zhongli Xiu said with great pride: "What are you afraid of? If those evil cultivators and demons dare to come, we will beat them to a pulp."

Feng Jingchen frowned slightly and said seriously, "Ah Xiu, the evil cultivators will definitely not give up after their failure in the Youhuang Secret Realm. We must be fully prepared and not underestimate the enemy."

Lin Muci blinked his eyes, his mouth stuffed with a piece of spiritual flesh, and said vaguely but firmly: "That's right, we must make every possible preparation to prevent them from making a comeback!"

"Let's not think about these things for now. Let's have a good meal and then make plans." Although Jiang Qingwu said that he didn't want to, he had already made multiple plans in private. Cultivation is still an important matter.

At the same time, in the demon clan's meeting hall, the atmosphere was very gloomy.

The meeting room was dimly lit, and the torches on the walls flickered, casting eerie shadows. The demon leader sat at the head of the table, his expression terribly gloomy. His eyes were filled with anger and resentment. "This operation in the Youhuang Secret Realm has failed, all because of those people from the Wuliang Sect."

A demon general said, "Chief, we can't just let it go like this. We must intensify our plan to invade the righteous path and let them know how powerful we demons are." His eyes were full of ferocity and his face showed a hideous expression.

Another demon strategist said, "Chief, we can first lure the evil cultivators and let them be the mantises while we are the orioles. The evil cultivators have always been eager for power, and we can give them some false promises to make them charge into battle for us." There was a cunning glint in his eyes and a sinister smile on his face.

The demon leader nodded slightly and said, "Good idea. Also, send someone to contact Ye Qingcheng, the leader of the Soul Devouring Sect, to seek cooperation."

In the Soul Devouring Sect, Ye Qingcheng fell into deep thought after receiving the news from the demons. He had been hiding from He Yihuan for over a decade and was somewhat hesitant about collaborating with the demons. But considering the current situation, he felt it was worth considering. So, he replied to the demon leader, saying he would consider cooperation, but demanding a detailed plan.

In the meeting hall of Qingyun Sect, the Sect Leader and the elders were discussing how to deal with the threat posed by the evil cultivators and demons.

Outside the meeting room, the sky was gloomy and covered with dark clouds. The wind blew through the courtyard, rustling the leaves, as if telling of the impending crisis.

The head of the sect said seriously: "I didn't expect that the evil cultivators would be so bold as to do such a thing in the Youhuang Secret Realm. We must take action and cannot let them continue to do whatever they want." His eyes were full of anger and his expression was very solemn.

An elder frowned and said, "We must strengthen the training of our disciples and improve their strength. At the same time, we must strengthen cooperation with other sects to jointly fight against the evil cultivators and demons." His eyes were full of worry and his face had a serious expression.

Another elder said, "We can also send disciples to investigate the movements of the evil cultivators and demons so that we can respond in a timely manner."

Everyone nodded in agreement with the elder. They knew the threat posed by the evil cultivators and demons was growing stronger and stronger, and they had to unite to protect their sects and the people of the world.

The headmaster thought for a moment and said seriously, "Let's tell the teachers and elders of Wuliang Sect first. This time, they are led by the direct disciples of Daojun Cangfeng. I guess those younger ones haven't returned to the sect yet. Let's share this news with them first, and then disperse."

"Yes." Elder Gao of Qingyun Sect's General Affairs Hall returned to the hall and began to communicate with Shi Chenbai.
