My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant

At this time, people in the Land of Inheritance, whether they were still accepting the inheritance or those who had completed their inheritance, were all enveloped by a cloud of spiritual force and completely lost consciousness.

Not to mention the living pupils of the Six Sects, even Lou Mu Yan, Ming Xiu and the others gradually lost their consciousness after being enveloped by the spiritual force.

Spirit pets such as Mo Yan, Bing Ji, and Long Yao weren’t spared either, and all fell asleep after being enveloped by a dense green mist.

Outside the Land of Inheritance.

The Sect Leaders of the Six Sects and the Sword Saints of the other major forces turned pale in shock, and they poured their elemental energy into magic tools.

“Quickly disperse.” The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Secret Palace shouted immediately after seeing the spatial rift storm that suddenly appeared in the passage that opened up.

The others retreated right away and distanced themselves from it.

[BOOM BOOM!!] After several explosions resounded…

Everyone watched green balls of light flying out of the space leading to the Land of Inheritance, and after a while, the passage completely shattered and collapsed.

“What’s this?” A Sword Saint asked in surprise, looking at the green balls of light suspended in mid-air.

If he didn’t feel wrong, what’s shrouded in these green light balls were people.

The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Secret Palace pondered for a while then said: “They met a huge fortuitous opportunity.”

“Met a huge fortuitous opportunity? What do you mean?” Huo Ling Long asked with furrowed brows.

“The Land of Inheritance shattered and collapsed, while the spiritual force inside was gathered by the soul energy left within the Inheritance Halls. It sent the pupils who went inside, out.”

The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Secret Palace said: “All the pupils who are currently alive are shrouded in the most quintessential spiritual force in the Land of Inheritance and are absorbing them to the fullest. After the absorption of the spiritual force in the light ball, their cultivation level would probably advance a stage.”

“What, advance a stage?” The Sect Leader of the Medicine Sect asked in surprise: “Then doesn’t that mean Sword Saint cultivation base pupils could step directly into Sword Deity? How’s that possible?”

“Nothing’s impossible.” The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Secret Palace smiled faintly: “That’s why I said that they encountered a huge fortuitous opportunity this time.”

Hearing the words of the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Secret Palace, the Sword Saint powerhouses present were all envious.

If some of their Sword Saint pupils advanced to Sword Deity after absorbing the spiritual force in the light ball, then it was no longer a huge fortuitous opportunity—it was practically a miraculous encounter.

“Alright now, you can’t force fortuitous opportunities, it’s not something to be envious of.” The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Secret Palace looked indifferent, paused, then said: “You all guard your side to prevent any high-levels sneak attacks from the Hidden City.”

“Alright!”

Although envious, but the green balls of light enveloped their elite pupils. It was at least better than the people of the Hidden City meeting such a fortuitous opportunity.

Then in the sky above the swamp outside the Land of Inheritance, there would be fluctuations of advancements every two days.

In the beginning, it was just the fluctuation of Sword Venerables advancing to Sword Saints, but later, there were successive Tribulation Lightning descending for advancements.

Such a situation also attracted the attention of the Sword Deity powerhouses of the Six Sects and several major forces. Soon dozens of Sword Deities also arrived here.

[BOOM BOOM!!] Thunder sounded again in the sky.

A Sword Saint Elder sighed and said: “This is already the third Lightning Tribulation of a Sword Saint advancing to Sword Deity.”

“Their luck truly is good.” The other Sword Saints were envious.

The pupils who obtained the opportunity this time could not only advance a major stage, but also had the protection of the top powerhouses of the entire Tian’ling Continent, occasionally helping guide and resist the Lightning Tribulation. Such an honour wasn’t for every Sword Saint that gets promoted to Sword Deity.

Time passed little by little, and Lou Mu Bai, Su Jin, and the others were also promoted to Sword Deity, while there were still green balls of light fluctuating in the sky.

However, the green spiritual force being constantly absorbed by the two shrouded in it had faded a lot, and the people in the ball of lights were also gradually growing clearer.

“It’s a well-known fact that Chi Xiu of the Heavenly Secret Palace can advance to Sword Deity, but who knew that Lou Mu Yan, who’s not even twenty years old, will also advance to Sword Deity.”

A Sword Deity Ancestor of the Sword Sect said, not knowing whether to cry or smile: “These two truly make us old people who only became Sword Deities after a hundred years feel so unworthy!”

“Come on, except for Chi Xiu and Lou Mu Yan, several other pupils have also advanced to Sword Deity in their twenties. Such a fortuitous opportunity is hard to come by.” A Sword Deity Ancestor of the Medicine Sect said.

“However, the talent of that Lou girl truly is amazing!” He immediately added: “Although it’s a fortuitous opportunity, but she also needs to have the ability to obtain it. She advanced to Sword Saint at such a young age, she’s truly not outmatched by Chi Xiu.”

“HAHA…” As soon as the Medicine Sect’s Ancestor’s voice fell, a loud laugh came from the horizon not far away.

Then several balls of light fell, and six elderly men walked out of the lights.

“Greetings Grand Ancestors.” The Sword Saint Sect Leaders and Elders of the Six Sects immediately bowed respectfully when they saw the visitors.

“Tian Xuan, what made you this happy?” The Grand Ancestor of the Heavenly Secret Palace asked with a light expression.

Old Man Tian Xuan looked at a ball of light in the air with gentle eyes and said: “This old man’s direct pupils are advancing to Sword Deity one after another, of course this old man’s happy.”

Su Jin being a disciple of Old Man Tian Xuan, the several Grand Ancestors present all knew, but hearing his tone, it was obvious that it wasn’t just Su Jin, this one disciple, who advanced.

The Grand Ancestor of the Sword Sect had a relatively good relationship with Ancestor Tian Xuan. He looked up in the air and said: “That little girl named Lou Mu Yan isn’t also your direct disciple is she?”

“HAHA…” Old Man Tian Xuan laughed aloud: “You old thing still understands me. Lou girl is indeed the second direct disciple accepted by this old man.”

Seeing the proud appearance of Old Man Tian Xuan, the Ancestors all twitched the corners of their lips.

However, it would be a lie to say they weren’t envious. After all, after receiving such a talented disciple as Lou Mu Yan, this Old Man Tian Xuan truly met some dog-crap luck1.

[BOOM BOOM!!]

Suddenly, seven-coloured spiritual clouds gathered in the sky and Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu, who were enveloped by the green spiritual force light balls, opened their eyes at the same time.

Immediately, the two looked at each other tacitly, and there was a consonant smile on their lips.

Not long after, purple lightning struck down one after another, one wave more ferocious than the next.

However, the two of them weren’t afraid at all. After taking out their natal array compasses and array flags, the two teamed up to set up an ancient, joint attack and defence array.

The two’s hands kept forming seals and they formed seals at practically the same time.

Soon, the array was completed, and a light-purple light cover enveloped the two of them.

One after another, the purple lightning slashed down fiercely, and when it landed on the array, the light-purple light cover gradually grew darker.

The purest lightning power penetrated into the bodies of the two and continuously expanded their meridians and tempered their bodies.

“What?” The Grand Elder of the Vast Mountain Sect’s expression changed, “Not only did they work together to set up a Grade 7 Array, but this array could even transform the power of the lightning that was born from the Lightning Tribulation into body-tempering lightning essence. This is incredible.”

“This is also the first time this old man’s seen someone meeting Lightning Tribulations like this.” Ancestor Yu Chan’s eyes also revealed admiration and envy.

In the past, when they advanced to Sword Deity, who wasn’t afraid and who didn’t prepare countless things to resist the Lightning Tribulation.

Moreover, even after being fully prepared, they would still almost be half-killed by the lightning, in an utter mess, and it wasn’t even certain whether they’d advance successfully and survive.

Aside from Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu, the pupils who had advanced to Sword Deity in succession had advanced successfully with the help of the other Ancestors, but they were also struck, charred, and in a very sorry state. Only these two remained so elegant and graceful.

Seeing the merry expressions on the two of them, in addition to being jealous, envious and hateful, the people present could still only be jealous, envious, and hateful.

Only Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu would regard being struck by lightning as a kind of enjoyment and fun.

Not only were the two not afraid of the lightning bolts, but they could also make full use of the Lightning Tribulation.

There had never been and never will be another2—this was the first time they’ve seen such a thing.

Sure enough, such geniuses weren’t normal people—they were both devilishly talented freaks!

1‘met some **** luck’. I guessed ‘dog-crap’ since that’s generally what one says in Chinese.

2an idiom meaning that they’re one of a kind, basically, and most likely unmatched in the future.
