And as for Fumo Xin'er, what kind of woman was she?
In her presence, even women who could originally be considered beautiful would appear plain by comparison.
After all, Fumo Xin'er was a heavenly-grade beauty.
Upon seeing her, Zuoqiu Tiansheng's eyes went wide and fixed upon her.
He immediately declared his love for her.
But Fumo Xin'er had already been in a foul mood after becoming separated from
Yet who could have predicted that when sweet words failed, Zuoqiu Tiansheng would resort to force?
And so, Fumo Xin'er and Zuoqiu Tiansheng clashed right there in the city.
Though Fumo Xin'er was strong — an undeniable genius — she was still only a first-rank Supreme. Fighting against Zuoqiu Tiansheng, a second-rank Supreme, she was clearly no match.
Thus, Fumo Xin'er had been forcibly taken away by Zuoqiu Tiansheng.
"What scum the
"Their elders rob us of our cultivation treasures, and now the younger generation is even worse — daring to kidnap my sister!"
"I'll destroy every last one of them!"
Upon hearing the full account, Fumo Shaoyu was furious enough to grind his teeth to dust.
"Brother Shaoyu, the Zuoqiu Heavenly Clan came prepared. They're certain to have plenty of experts within their ranks."
"We can't go in brute-forcing our way — we need to use our wits."
"The good news is that the tracking talisman can still locate Fumo Xin'er, and my barrier art should prove useful as well."
"Let's rescue your sister first before anything else," Chu Feng said.
"Right. We need to get my sister back. We absolutely cannot let her marry that scumbag," Fumo Shaoyu replied.
With their decision made, Chu Feng and Fumo Shaoyu set off immediately, tracking Fumo Xin'er's location.
......
The Celestial Starfield — the central region of the Upper Realm of Heavenly Lightning.
Here stood an ancient grand formation.
This formation contained not a single thread of barrier energy. Instead, it was composed of countless pillar-shaped stones stacked upon one another.
These stones were no ordinary rocks. They were extraordinarily durable — rare and precious treasures.
Yet now, every one of those stones was riddled with cracks. In their dilapidated state, it seemed as though they could crumble apart at any moment.
But carved upon those stones were densely packed talismanic runes.
Even Chu Feng, upon seeing those runes, would have marveled at the skill of whoever had left them behind.
This was the place — the renowned Ancient Heavenly Lightning Formation.
The Ancient Heavenly Lightning Formation could help those with heavenly-grade bloodlines achieve breakthroughs. This was no legend.
In the ages since antiquity, several individuals had successfully harnessed the power of the Ancient Heavenly Lightning Formation to shatter their realm barriers and advance.
However, utilizing the power of the Ancient Heavenly Lightning Formation was no simple matter.
It required a tremendous expenditure of wealth to activate the ancient formation.
Put simply, one needed to sacrifice a great number of rare and invaluable heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
Because of this, while many people wished to use the Ancient Heavenly Lightning Formation to break through, very few actually managed to do so.
Moreover, this Ancient Heavenly Lightning Formation had a limited number of uses.
The cracks on those stones were the best proof of that.
Judging by its current condition, it would likely only survive one or two more uses before reaching its absolute limit.
At that point, the formation would be completely destroyed — erased from this world forever.
But the people of the Zuoqiu Heavenly Clan couldn't care less whether the Ancient Heavenly Lightning Formation was destroyed.
What they cared about was whether Zuoqiu Tiansheng would succeed in his breakthrough.
In their view, the reason Zuoqiu Tiansheng had been unable to break through for so long was very likely because he had encountered the legendary Divine Lightning Tribulation.
As for the Divine Lightning Tribulation, even the Zuoqiu Heavenly Clan had only heard of it — they had never actually witnessed it firsthand.
