Thump!
In the cold wind, the sect, which had been peaceful for more than a year, was suddenly awakened by the clanging of metal. This startled the sect leader Tang Xiao, who was in seclusion and cultivating, as well as the five elders of the Clear Sky Sect.
What happened?
After a year of arduous training, Tang Xiao has broken through to level 92, becoming the second Titled Douluo of their Clear Sky Sect after Tang Hao.
"Metropolitan!"
"The sound of metal clashing, like sharp weapons striking each other."
Seventh Elder Tang Lie: "Could it be that the bandits from the Spirit Hall have stormed the mountain?"
"That despicable Spirit Hall! They've already forced us into seclusion, and they still won't stop! They've gone too far!"
"Elders, please calm down."
Tang Xiao stood on the edge of the cliff, watching the elders rushing towards him. His expression was grave. "I didn't see anyone from the Spirit Hall."
Moreover, Tang Xiao found the voice very familiar: 'It sounds like someone is forging something.'
The Martial Soul of the disciples of the Clear Sky Sect is the Clear Sky Hammer.
In addition, the Chaotic Cloak cultivation method makes most of the Clear Sky Sect disciples proficient in blacksmithing and forging, and they are most familiar with this sound.
"It really does sound like the sound of hammering metal."
"But where did the sound of blacksmithing come from, that it could travel so far?"
Soon, due to the unusual movements of the sect leader and elders, the disciples of the Clear Sky Sect appeared one after another, all looking at them with solemn expressions.
"Father, what happened?"
The one who spoke was Tang Xiao's adopted son, Tang Long. He was 17 years old this year and had already broken through level 40, becoming a Soul Ancestor.
Among the new generation of the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Long is undoubtedly the strongest.
"Long'er, didn't you hear me?"
"What did you hear?"
Tang Long glanced at Tang Hu beside him, who also looked bewildered.
Thump!
"Here we go again."
"It was definitely the sound of hammering metal, didn't you hear it?"
Seeing the elders discussing amongst themselves, Tang Long and Tang Yu's confusion deepened.
"Can't you hear me?"
Tang Xiao: "That sound like a hammering or striking that makes the whole mountain tremble?"
"Yes, is there?"
Tang Long summoned his Martial Soul, using his Soul Power to enhance his five senses.
Other Clear Sky Sect disciples followed suit, but as a result, they still heard nothing.
Something's wrong, why is this happening?
Thump!
Just as another roar came, Tang Xiao interrupted everyone, "Shh, everyone be quiet."
Thump.
Tang Xiao quickly bent down, brushed aside the snow and ice on the ground, and pressed his ear directly against the surface.
'underground?'
Seeing Tang Xiao's actions, the elders realized the source of the sound.
It did not come from the outside world, but from the foot of the mountain where their Clear Sky Sect was located.
"Bang~ Dong~ Ding~~"
Gradually, the sound became clearer, while Tang Xiao's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. "There's no mistake, this strange clanging sound is coming from underground!"
But the question is, why is there a sound of blacksmithing coming from the foot of this mountain?
"Could there be a secret space at the bottom of this mountain that we are unaware of?"
But that's not right either.
"If someone were truly hiding inside the mountain, they would have been discovered long ago."
It's utterly absurd that someone would be forging iron at the foot of a mountain.
"Boom!"
However, before Tang Xiao could make a judgment, the entire mountain began to shake.
"Earthquake?"
"Earthquake!"
"Ah, help!"
The ground beneath their feet shattered, revealing dark ravines. Some of the tribesmen didn't react in time and fell straight down.
Fortunately, a quick-thinking Soul Master intervened and rescued the victim.
"Not good."
Tang Xiao steadied himself and ordered, "Everyone, forget about the belongings, protect the ordinary clansmen with all your might, and evacuate the sect immediately!"
After Tang Xiao and the others left the mountain where the Clear Sky Sect was located, the mountain completely broke apart.
"Boom~~"
Thick black smoke billowed into the sky, followed by a deafening roar as if the heavens and earth were collapsing.
Turning around, one could see that the mountains, which were originally covered in ice and snow, were now covered in lava. The rapidly rising temperature caused the surrounding snow-white landscape to show signs of melting.
"Fire, volcanic eruption..."
At this moment, everyone was stunned by what they saw.
Many clansmen collapsed to the ground, watching helplessly as their sect was engulfed in flames.
"Gone, our sect is completely gone..."
Seventh Elder Tang Lie was in tears, kneeling on the ground, watching the Clear Sky Sect reduced to ashes with resentment. "Why did this happen? How could this be!"
Thump!
"Who is it?!"
The knocking sound came again, Tang Lie stood up angrily. "Sect Master, this sudden volcanic eruption must be related to that blacksmith at the foot of the mountain."
"That's right, it must have been him."
"Let's go down and see. We must find him to avenge the destruction of our Clear Sky Sect's mountain gate!"
With all five elders expressing their support, Tang Xiao had no reason to back down.
Although the idea is somewhat unbelievable, it cannot be ruled out that someone could actually ignite mountains and rivers through blacksmithing.
If this is true, then the opponent's strength is terrifying.
As the sect leader, Tang Xiao had to consider the sect and his clansmen, so he had to make preparations for both possibilities.
"Second Elder, and Seventh Elder, please come with me."
Tang Xiao stood with his hands behind his back and instructed, "The other three elders, take your clansmen to Tang Family Village and make sure they are well protected."
"I will obey the sect leader's command!"
While the Clear Sky Sect was undergoing a dramatic change, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, located thousands of miles away, also faced a catastrophic disaster.
A dark storm gathered overhead, forming an eye of the storm that seemed to devour the heavens and earth. Endless lightning bolts, like thunder dragons, rolled and roared within the dark clouds.
This overwhelming force made the disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect deeply experience the process from fear to despair.
"Boom!"
A flash of lightning illuminated the dark world, casting a towering, majestic figure between heaven and earth.
It looks like a bear, but it appears to be made of dark clouds.
"Snap!"
As bolts of lightning struck, Yu Yuanzhen, the sect leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, was shocked to discover that the giant bear was closing in.
What kind of monster is this?
Yu Yuanzhen looked around, his heart filled with anxiety and unease.
Because besides him, only the Vice Sect Master Yu Luomian was still able to stand.
The rest of the clansmen and sect disciples were all knocked unconscious by the thunderstorm.
Looking at the sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's territory is called Nine True Dragon Peaks, which consists of Crane Mountain, Valley Mountain Soaring Mountain, Tyrant Mountain, Battle Mountain, Fighting Mountain, Gale Mountain, Purple Lightning Mountain, Southern King Mountain, and True Dragon Mountain.
The environment here is far superior to that of the Clear Sky Sect after its seclusion; it is filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, like a paradise on earth.
However, that was before today.
At this very moment, the Nine True Dragon Peaks were completely enveloped by a cataclysmic thunderstorm.
Even beyond the farthest Crane Mountain, the majestic bear, both divine and demonic, was striding across the mountainside and slowly approaching the two.
"Are you kidding me!"
Yu Luomian glanced through her tears and discovered that the towering peak of Crane Mountain, reaching a thousand meters in height, only reached the giant bear's knees.
exaggerate!
That's outrageous!
Yu Luomian: "How could such a monster possibly exist in this world!"
"Boom!"
The moment Yu Luomian uttered those disrespectful words, a roar that seemed to tear his soul apart echoed in his mind.
"Thump."
The next moment, Yu Luomian bled from all seven orifices and collapsed straight down.
The true God must not be insulted!
"They have forgotten the ancient road, but the ancient road has never forgotten them."
An ancient, weathered voice, imbued with majesty and unquestionable authority, came from a giant bear Entanglement in devastating thunder and storms. It looked down upon the last remaining ant on the ground. "Choose. Follow the ancient path, embark on the road to immortality."
"Or perhaps it was due to a natural disaster."
His eyes blazed with dazzling lightning, like the Sun Moon in the darkness, hanging in the sky. "Turn to ashes!"
"Puff!"
Yu Yuanzhen violently as his knees shattered in the lightning, and he collapsed to the ground in excruciating pain.
Bow down to me.
"I will bestow it upon you."
He spread his arms, unleashing lightning capable of tearing through space itself. "Awaken!!"
"The card, how did it get broken?"
What's going on?
Luo Chen was unaware of what was happening outside, and he was looking at Na'er with a completely bewildered expression.
Because Na'er was the first Aspects to become Luo Chen, she is somewhat similar to the High Priestess of the Star Forger, and has the mission of presiding over Luo Chen's God Trials and resolving his doubts.
[ Third Trial ]
Content: Find and complete the trials of the Primordial First Fire, the Ancient Thunder, Eternal True Ice.
"The Three Gods of Freljord: Ornn, the Flame of the Mountain; Volibear, the Undying Thunder; and Anivia, the Crystal Phoenix."
As a LOL player, Luo Chen naturally knew the meaning behind these three terms. "Could it really be these three?"
These three are heavyweight characters in the League of Legends universe.
Aside from Ice Bird, who is simply funny and cute, the other two are practically the ceiling of combat power in Runeterra.
Aside from true gods like Dragon King and Bard, even the Aspects and Ascended cannot mess with them in Runeterra.
Ice Bird: So what about me? What about me?!
The eldest and second eldest brothers made a grand entrance, but the third sister didn't even get a chance to show her face.
Anivia: So I have absolutely no power?
" God Trials, you should only ask me to find them."
Luo Chen asked thoughtfully, "They didn't ask me to defeat them, did they?"
It's no wonder Luo Chen felt pressured; Ornn and Volibear's strength was simply too terrifying.
For example, Ornn.
As the oldest god in Runeterra, you can compare any character to him.
The final conclusion will inevitably be 'hard to say', 'feels like they can't beat Ornn ', and ' Ornn won't lose anyway'.
If you remove the two true gods, the Dragon King and the Star God, and send anyone, it would basically feel the same.
"The specifics will only be known once you find them, Master."
"Forehead..."
Luo Chen sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation, feeling that his own God Trials Priest was incredibly unreliable.
'Because I am your High Priest!'
The Silver Dragon King felt terrible. She felt like a woman misunderstood by the one she loved, wanting to explain but unable to speak.
'wrong!'
Suddenly, the Silver Dragon King exclaimed in surprise, "I've become a substitute!"
