The whole family went mad, but the junior sister turned the tables and her luck soared.

Chapter 537 Talisman and Phoenix

Yun Yici secretly thought something was wrong; Qinglian had arrived too early.

"Quickly pull out the roots, or you will suffer nine bolts of heavenly lightning just like me."

Qinglian, however, remained resolute: "No, together!"

The clouds and sea of ​​clouds in the sky were dyed an ominous dark purple by lightning, and the spiritual energy between heaven and earth poured back, forming a huge vortex in the sky centered on Yun Yici.

Yun Yici did not intend to be reckless and used his physical body to withstand the heavenly lightning.

Such intense heavenly lightning would kill anyone who couldn't withstand it, causing them to perish on the spot!

Fortunately, over the past hundred years, she had foreseen this day and made many preparations.

Yun Yici produced eighty-one spirit talismans from his sleeve.

The talisman emitted a dazzling golden light, spreading above her head and forming a brilliant, intricate golden barrier.

As the lightning struck, the ten-thousand-foot-long purple light collided violently with the light emanating from the talisman!

The crowd waiting in the distance to catch Honglian was almost blinded by the horizontal beam of light.

Langhuan narrowed her eyes and examined them for a moment, then said meaningfully, "Those talismans are not simple."

Yun Yici, who was under the protective barrier of the talisman, was completely unharmed.

The talisman array that withstood a lightning bolt was only slightly dimmed.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, do you think you can replicate this talisman?"

The talisman cultivator who was named had a complicated expression: "To withstand the tribulation lightning of the Mahayana stage, the cultivator who drew this talisman is no less powerful than you or me."

"Moreover, this is not just one, but eighty-one perfectly matched spirit talismans! If even one is destroyed, the entire spirit talisman array will be destroyed."

"I think this person's cultivation level is at least half a step into ascension."

The Supreme Elder of the Fu Sect, who had come to participate in the trial, looked surprised: "Such a treasure should be used only when there are the last one or two tribulation lightning strikes."

"To use it at the beginning would be a waste of resources."

Langhuan held Yun Yici in even higher regard, shaking her head and saying, "It seems we underestimated the Xuanling Domain."

Yun Yici easily took out this set of talismans to block the lightning, which firstly shows that there are talisman cultivators in the Xuanling Domain who are half-step ascended.

Secondly, it can be explained that Yun Yici was on good terms with him, and these eighty-one talismans are clear evidence of this.

Furthermore, Yun Yici might possess even more precious items than this set of talismans, otherwise she wouldn't have been willing to use them during the first tribulation lightning strike.

Langhuan looked at Yaochi, who was focused on protecting the Dharma, and then sighed: "This time, Sister Yaochi did the right thing."

"If Sect Leader Ruoyun fails her tribulation later, we must do everything we can to save her life."

Someone nearby, their mind racing, suspected that Langhuan was about to give up on Honglian, and cautiously probed, "What about Honglian?"

Langhuan said, "We have also set up an array outside. Honglian should be hiding in this raging sea of ​​fire."

"She is able to remain hidden thanks to the protection of the talisman, but the tribulation lightning will become increasingly powerful. If Sect Leader Yun focuses on protecting himself, he will surely be able to force her out."

Everyone agreed that this made sense, so they followed Langhuan's instructions and each person guarded a corner, completely surrounding the lotus pond, waiting for Honglian to fall into their trap.

At the center of the lightning array, Yun Yici looked up at the golden talisman above her head.

That was a gift from Yue Niang before she left.

The talisman's light is now somewhat dim; she estimates it can block at most two more lightning strikes.

Yun Yici sat cross-legged in meditation, focusing his energy on his dantian, concentrating on circulating his spiritual power, awaiting the second tribulation lightning.

Before the aftershocks of the previous attack had even subsided, the second bolt of lightning struck down.

A light even more dazzling than before burst forth, and spiderweb-like cracks began to appear on the eighty-one talismans.

A fierce wind howled, and the talisman that had been motionless was suddenly blown into the air.

Yun Yici knew this was a sign that the talisman was about to collapse. She formed a hand seal, channeled her spiritual power upwards, and forcefully gathered the entire talisman array together again.

As the third bolt of lightning struck, her spiritual power, separated by a layer of talisman, exploded violently.

The eighty-one talismans drawn by the Moon Goddess exploded and turned into ashes.

As if sensing that Yun Yici had lost her protection, the fourth bolt of tribulation lightning struck down without warning!

Just as Yun Yici was about to draw her Huaichuan Sword, a burst of fire suddenly flew out from her sleeve.

The flames instantly pierced the sky, turning the heavy dark clouds into rosy dawn.

When they saw the enormous beast roaring as it charged toward the lightning, everyone's pupils contracted.

It was a phoenix with crimson flames and golden eyes!
