Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 460 Staring

The thing that Yang Ding remembers most in his life is his experience of struggling to survive the natural calamity.

The three most profound things about natural tribulations - thunder, clouds and confinement - would always unconsciously come to Yang Ding's mind in the dead of night.

It was not fear, but a fear that went deep into his bones. And Yang Ding knew that as long as he continued to practice, he would definitely not experience the heavenly tribulation only once.

Therefore, Yang Ding immediately figured out that the sudden pressure coming down on him was from a heavenly calamity.

And he figured out that this heavenly calamity did not come from him, but was directed at Yang Qian in the thatched cottage in the middle!

I never thought that what Zhu Hongchan said, which seemed to be irrelevant at the time, would actually come true!
Is there really someone in this world who can stir up a heavenly calamity before the age of thirty? !
Moreover, it has only been more than two months since he got the opportunity in the Seven-Story Pagoda. Even if he really got a great benefit, he still needs to digest and absorb it, right? It doesn't make sense that he can turn it into his own strength just by using it, right?

There were too many puzzles and doubts in his heart, which made Yang Ding feel unreal. He even wanted to rush into the hut and pull Yang Qian out to question him. But as soon as he took a step forward, he immediately felt a warning in his heart. The calamity in the sky seemed to glance at him! He was so scared that he quickly retreated.

The heavenly tribulation is blind and does not care whether you have entered by mistake or not. Once you are locked up by the heavenly tribulation, just wait to be hit by the tribulation lightning as an external force "helping to resist". It is equivalent to picking up a heavenly tribulation for free.

No matter how stubborn Yang Ding is, he would never do such a thing.

Looking up, the sky, which had been clear, had now become overcast. Black clouds, which had appeared out of nowhere, were gathering, and the surrounding bamboo forests began to rustle, and the wind was gradually picking up.

"It's the Tribulation Cloud! It's so fast! At this rate, the Tribulation Cloud will be completely formed in three to five days at most! What kind of monster is this Yang Qian!"

While Yang Ding was cursing in his heart, he quickly informed Zhu Hongchan of the news using a talisman and asked her to come back quickly. Compared to the murderer who was hunting down disciples from both sides in secret, the matter of Yang Qian's upcoming tribulation was obviously more important.

In a short while, Zhu Hongchan's figure moved and appeared in the courtyard. The moment she appeared, she raised her head and looked at the dark clouds that were gradually gathering above. It looked like a sign before a heavy rain, but she knew as well as Yang Ding that it was not going to rain, it was going to thunder!

"This is impossible!" Zhu Hongchan also raised her leg and was about to rush into the hut, but after taking two steps, she immediately retreated at an even faster speed.

Yang Ding wanted to laugh when he saw this scene, but he couldn't.

"It's really a heavenly tribulation! How could Yang Qian break through so quickly?!" Zhu Hongchan's face was very bad after she retreated. On the one hand, she found the facts in front of her unbelievable. On the other hand, she thought that whether Yang Qian succeeded or failed in overcoming the tribulation, it would not be a good thing for her and Yang Ding.

If he succeeds in overcoming the tribulation, the Soul Pot will no longer be able to control Yang Qian. It is even hard to say whether Yang Qian’s strength can still withstand their control at that time.

If Yang Qian fails to overcome the tribulation, he will surely die, and there will be no hope of opening the door to the fifth floor of the seven-story tower.

Of course, there is another way, which is to cut off the soul imprint of Yang Qian in the soul pot now and kill him with spell.

But it was meaningless to do so. After all, Zhu Hongchan and Yang Ding wanted Yang Qian to help open the door, not to take Yang Qian's life!

"What should we do?" Zhu Hongchan asked.

"What else can we do? Let all the disciples at the ruins disperse and wait for Yang Qian to show up. Now we can only talk again."

"Are you going to distribute the things in the Seven-Story Pagoda?" "What else can I do? It's impossible to use force. I can't just stand there and watch. I can only slowly grind it down." Yang Ding was also quite helpless. He didn't expect that a good thing would turn out like this. Originally, everything was under control, but now he had to ask others for help.

What made Zhu Hongchan and Yang Ding most upset but could not say it was that they played a big role in promoting Yang Qian's breakthrough so quickly and attracting the heavenly tribulation. It was a heavenly tribulation that they forcefully fed him.

As the dark clouds above their heads grew thicker, Zhu Hongchan and Yang Ding could no longer stand in the yard. The heavenly tribulation was clearly defining a range. It would give a warning in advance to all living beings within the range, asking them to leave quickly.

At this time, Yang Qian did not come out but set up a forge in the hut and began to refine weapons.

Others can't accomplish anything in five days, but he can.

The meaning of magic tools is not much. Under the heavenly tribulation, magic tools are consumables. The top-grade magic tools that Yang Qian has refined are just like paper in front of the heavenly tribulation.

So what Yang Qian was refining was the formation plate.

It was not the small array plate that was convenient for setting up arrays, but a huge mountain gate array plate. It was also the strongest defensive array he had learned from the "Hundred Arrays Diagram".

Yang Qian also simplified the mountain gate array. It does not require continuity, durability, flexibility, or the ability to distinguish between friend and foe. It only requires a lot of defense. This array is easy to refine and takes less time. Yang Qian thinks three to four days is definitely enough.

Yang Qian had only one hope for the match: if he could block one or half of the thunder, he would make a huge profit.

During this time, Yang Ding and Zhu Hongchan who were outside the house also noticed Yang Qian's behavior.

"He also knows formations? And his attainments are quite high! This..." Yang Ding didn't know what to say.

Compared to cultivation, formations, weapon refining, and alchemy are the most time-consuming. Even if one has talent, it will take many years to make some progress. Yang Ding and Zhu Hongchan also have time to spend on formations because they have lived long enough. And how old is Yang Qian?

Zhu Hongchan was also shocked and couldn't help but said to Yang Ding: "I have a feeling that he seems to be able to withstand the heavenly calamity."

After all, this person is too weird, so weird that it seems that practicing is as simple as playing house for a kid to him, and it can break all the cognition of practice.

On the afternoon of the fourth day, Yang Qian stretched out his arms, and the pure physical strength directly shook the surrounding space to form a surge, and the shock wave flattened the entire thatched cottage. Then he arranged the three umbrella-sized array plates he had refined in the courtyard in a triangle.

There is no need to change the place to overcome the tribulation, this is the right place.

After setting up the formation, Yang Qian turned his head to look at Yang Ding and Zhu Hongchan who were hanging in the air in the distance and observing this side. Without saying a word, a thought moved his mind, and the magic thread that had been pulling him was instantly cut.

“Not good!” Zhu Hongchan sensed something and quickly took out the soul pot, but there was no trace of Yang Qian’s soul inside.

"Tsk, it seems that Yang Qian had been hiding his tricks for a long time, and planned to use us to gain benefits. And he really got what he wanted." As soon as Yang Ding saw Zhu Hongchan's reaction, he realized that his last reliance was a joke from the beginning.

"Wait for him to pass the tribulation!"
