Among the three people present, the only one in slightly better condition was Xuan Chu, who had been advised to hide by the Dragon Spirit earlier.

When the Thunder Force Pressure descended, Xuan Chu immediately mobilized the Heavenly Dao Restriction within his body.

Subsequently, the Thunder Force Pressure suddenly made a sharp turn, brushing past him.

Yun Ran, barely holding herself from kneeling, looked at her own disheveled self and then at the slightly bewildered and embarrassed Dragon Spirit not far away.

Looking at Xuan Chu again, her heart instantly turned sour.

It’s often said that it’s not the lack of equality that’s the issue, but rather the imbalance, and at this moment, Yun Ran deeply understood this.

Both she and the Dragon Spirit got hit hard by the Heavenly Thunder while Xuan Chu remained unharmed. Isn’t this a clear attempt to sow discord?

Yun Ran pouted as she looked towards the sky, feeling slyly cheated, using such a lowly method to drive them apart.

Thankfully, she’s broad-minded; otherwise, they would surely be in conflict right now.

Er Dan’s screams persisted, but now, no one paid him any mind; so long as he doesn’t die, it’s fine.

The Dragon Spirit, realizing he was reverted to his original form by the Thunder Force Pressure, nearly lost his composure.

To save face, the Dragon Spirit coughed lightly: "Unfortunately, I came with only half of my Dragon Soul torn apart. If it were complete, I certainly wouldn’t have been reverted to my original form."

At other times, hearing such a save-face remark from the Dragon Spirit, Yun Ran would surely give him a big eye roll.

But at this moment, Yun Ran dared not say another word nor provoke the Dragon Spirit, afraid that this guy would be broken once mocked.

Being reverted to original form is the Dragon Spirit’s reverse scale.

Xuan Chu clearly understood this too, showing unprecedented goodwill, nodding in agreement.

The Dragon Spirit was prepared to be mocked by Yun Ran and others, but these two appeared completely convinced.

This brought a sudden burst of sour and inflated feelings in the Dragon Spirit’s heart.

Turns out, this is what it feels like to be cared for and have one’s dignity preserved. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

The initially embarrassed heart of the Dragon Spirit revived instantly.

Being reverted isn’t such a big deal after all~

Xuan Chu, unaware of such sentimentality in the Dragon Spirit, was instead avoiding Yun Ran a bit.

The virtual shadow of the Great Seal above Yun Ran’s head implicitly repelled Xuan Chu, clearly not fond of him.

This left Xuan Chu a bit defeated, but he was an adult, not that pretentious. Since the Great Seal disliked him, he would just stay clear of it.

Xuan Chu quickly walked over to the Dragon Spirit’s side, inspecting him.

Confirming he wasn’t injured, merely unable to sustain his human form temporarily.

He leisurely said, "Now it’s you who should step aside~"

Dragon Spirit: ...

What a guy, Xuan Chu holds grudges as well!

Actually waiting here just to return a phrase he previously said!

After speaking, Xuan Chu no longer looked at the Dragon Spirit.

His gaze fixed straight on Er Dan, who was evading within the pit, so dirty that his original form couldn’t be seen.

Earlier, when the Thunder Force Pressure descended, after mobilizing the Heavenly Dao Restriction on him, it glanced past him.

This indicated that the consciousness of this world also recognized the Heavenly Dao Restriction on him.

The Dao lineage on Yun Ran was acknowledged by the Heavenly Dao back then.

Thus, when she unleashed her Dao lineage and the Qingfeng Temple’s Prohibition, the damage she sustained was limited too.

Then, why did Er Dan, who absorbed part of the Heavenly Dao Origin, become a thorn in this world’s eye?

Unfortunately, at this moment, Xuan Chu’s confusion couldn’t be answered by anyone.

They could only protect themselves while carefully watching Er Dan, ensuring he neither gets killed by lightning nor fails the Heavenly Tribulation.

Meanwhile.

Those who left the valley felt the earth tremble as the Heavenly Thunder fell, mixed with deafening thunder sounds during.

This experience deeply showed them what it meant for the earth to shake and the mountains to sway.

What it meant for humans to be pathetically small in the face of nature.

Despite these people having skills, many even possessing astonishing means.

Yet at this moment, everyone seemed like meat laid on a chopping block.

Within dozens of miles, the magnetic field underwent a significant change due to the astonishing Heavenly Thunder.

The usual means from Xuan Sect appeared powerless at this moment.

They resembled those ordinary people caught in a disaster, like headless chickens, racing forward desperately, just to find a path to survival.

With many fleeing, the probability of stampede incidents is extremely high.

Even though these people were once esteemed, when facing life and death, they were astoundingly ordinary.

Soon, the central area saw pushing, people falling, some ignoring everything and rushing ahead, others swearing ...

Various sounds mingled, but were completely suppressed by successive thunder sounds.

The Little Paperman followed behind, hearing the eardrum-shattering sounds, only felt scared stiff, despite not having a heart to be stirred.

Turning around, the Little Paperman saw the array Xuan Chu set up earlier.

After ’stealing’ part of the Heavenly Thunder, the array was activated, transforming into a giant semi-circle covering the ground.

The road leading to the valley was completely blocked by the giant semi-circle.

Still emitting sizzling Electric Flowers, the surrounding plants and trees suffered heavy casualties due to the lightning.

The array was initially meant to trap those who came seeking treasures, preventing ambushes.

Now looking again, the array set up by Xuan Chu was clearly the safest place within dozens of miles.

Unfortunately, these people remained clueless, instead making frantic attempts to escape outward.

Listening to the increasingly loud and frequent thunder sounds, the Little Paperman surprisingly became more spirited instead of scared.

The air was filled with much Thunder Element energy, a nutrious boost for the Little Paperman.

The Little Paperman hovered mid-air, vigilantly monitoring the evacuating people, occasionally absorbing some energy.

In fact, many matters are dual-sided, where the Thunder Element in the air benefits the Little Paperman.

But not necessarily beneficial for others.

Heavenly Thunder restrains everything evil.

After becoming a Dark Master, recognizing absolute power.

Not everyone can calmly face their obscurity within the crowd.

Many people appeared righteous, yet secretly committed many Evil Cultivator acts.

Even if they find ways to conceal those karmas, under such formidable Heavenly Thunder.

Unless one’s Dao Heart is exceedingly solid, any slightest insecurity would suffer severe blow.
