Chapter 223: Someone was plotting against me!
Li Qingqing remained silent and didn't say a word.
She was thinking about this too.
Now it seems that the crisis Bai Xiangling mentioned before leaving must be referring to this.
So many leaders in Xizhou were unaware of such a major crisis, but Qin Yuan knew?
So, it must be because of Fu Changye.
Looking outside at the area enclosed by the thunder circle, and thinking about Fu Changye's sudden plan to recruit disciples with thunder spiritual roots, she suddenly thought of a possibility.
Share the thunder tribulation?
Fu Changye wanted to train some disciples with thunder spiritual roots to serve as containers for diverting the thunder when he went to the Hualing Holy Sea in the future.
Just like now, the thunder on the Xichen Mountain side of Xizhou clearly came from the void, as if it was transferred here.
Just like the thunder in the Huafan trap array.
Therefore, someone from the Hualing Holy Sea used the thunder spirit root cultivators from Xichen Mountain in Xizhou as tools to divert the thunder.
Thinking of this, she immediately told the leaders of Fenglei Sect and Danqi Sect about this possibility.
When the leader of Fenglei Sect heard this, he was stunned at first, then he thought of something and his face changed.
The Danqi Sect also thought of this at this time, but said uncertainly: "If we want to divert the tribulation lightning, wouldn't the success rate be higher if people from our sect were to do it?"
The Wind and Thunder Sect's headmaster spoke with some difficulty, "In principle, that's true. But in reality, as long as we leave a trigger, a lightning circle like this can be set in place. Anyone with a lightning root can be drawn into it and help resist the lightning. Anyone else caught in the act can only consider themselves unlucky."
He paused before continuing, "I've only seen records of this kind of situation in the Fenglei Sect's secret records. The last time this happened was about 150 years ago."
"Back then, more than a dozen of my Wind and Thunder Sect's exceptionally talented disciples were planted with lightning-attracting seeds, and died while defending themselves against foreign lightning disasters. Who would have thought that over a hundred years later, we would encounter the same thing again."
Upon hearing this, the head of the Danqi Sect couldn't help but frown, "The person behind this is truly wicked. To ascend to heaven, do they completely disregard the lives of others?"
Upon hearing this, Li Qingqing suddenly asked, "Is there anyone in Hualing Jiuzhou who can contact the people in Hualing Shenghai at any time?"
She now suspected that Fu Changye was the person who could contact Hualing Shenghai.
Otherwise, it cannot be explained. He tragically lost five disciples with thunder spiritual roots. He let Bai Xiangling and the others leave, and then such a thing happened in Xichen Mountain, Xizhou.
The Fenglei Sect's leader was stunned for a moment. "Someone can contact us, but it's expensive. Didn't the owner of Jueying Tower contact us twice in Dongzhou?"
At that time, the master of Lingqin Peak was also there!
Li Qingqing shook her head. "What I mean is, besides the heads and leaders of each sect, is there any secret method that can allow people to contact the people of Hualing Holy Sea?"
"This is really hard to explain clearly. At least if it's not a sect sacrifice and it costs a huge price, I can't do it." Feng Lei Zong sighed.
The head of the Danqi Sect also nodded, "Neither can I."
Looking at the sky over Xichen Mountain, which was shrouded in a circle of thunder and lightning, turning from black to purple, he suddenly felt a chill.
"Should we move further away? I feel like we're still too close, and I feel a little uneasy." The head of the Danqi Sect's voice trembled slightly.
"Yeah." Li Qingqing controlled the spirit boat and quickly moved away a certain distance.
And several spirit boats that had luckily followed them out of the thunder circle before, cleverly followed the Fenglei Sect's spirit boat again.
At this moment, the second terrifying thunder fell from the sky again.
boom……
This time the thunder was even more frightening than the previous one. Even though Li Qingqing and the others had flown quite far away, they could still feel the spirit boat shaking.
And the shaking is even more intense than before.
The Wind and Thunder Sect's leader said angrily, "It seems like our Wind and Thunder Sect members were tricked. We left just in time, so there may be fewer Thunder Root cultivators in the Tribulation Thunder Circle than expected, which is why the Tribulation Thunder was so devastating this time."
Li Qingqing nodded, "Maybe if it strikes a few more times, the person who wants to survive the tribulation will fail."
Having said that, she suddenly thought of something and hurriedly reminded the leader of Fenglei Sect.
"It's best to conduct a thorough inspection of all the disciples with thunder spirit roots that you received in Xichen Mountain this time to see if anyone has planted thunder seeds in them in advance."
When the Fenglei Sect leader heard this, his eyes widened.
But after thinking about it for a while, he understood.
Yes, there are not many cultivators with thunder spiritual roots, but he collected five of them at once, and they were all mutated thunder spiritual roots. This is not right when you think about it!
So he immediately called his newly-accepted disciples to his side and began to examine their souls one by one.
The head of the Danqi Sect also immediately went over to watch, so that he could help if necessary.
Because Li Qingqing was operating the spirit boat, she only took a look occasionally.
Suddenly, her eyes caught sight of a spirit boat following them outside, and the person controlling the spirit boat was actually waving at her.
When she looked again, she was speechless.
It turned out to be the Emperor Killer!
This guy reacted really quickly.
When the Killing Emperor saw that Li Qingqing had noticed her, he waved to her and then quickly walked away. It seemed like he had come just to say hello.
Li Qingqing took a deep breath, then turned around to look at the Fenglei Sect leader whose expression was becoming increasingly worse.
After checking everyone, the Fenglei Sect's head said with a dark face, "All five of them have traces of lightning-attracting seeds planted on them. It will take some time for me to remove them. Master Lingqin, it may take me a few days. I'll leave the spirit boat in your care. Master Danqi, please come and lend me a hand."
"Okay." Li Qingqing nodded.
The head of Danqi also nodded, "Let's go! We have to hurry."
The leader of the Fenglei Sect did not waste any more time and took his disciples to the Lingzhou's lounge to concentrate on removing the lightning-attracting seeds for them.
Li Qingqing originally wanted to sail the spirit boat away from Xizhou and head towards Jiulingzhou.
But on second thought, she felt that the tide of the spiritual sea in Yuling Continent would only last for more than a month. Without going through the teleportation formations of various continents, it would take more than half a month for the spiritual boat to fly slowly.
So she changed her route and went to Yulingzhou.
At first, the people on the Spirit Boat didn't notice it. It wasn't until half a day later that someone asked, "Master Lingqin, where are we going now? Why does it look like we're going to Yulingzhou?"
Li Qingqing nodded, "We're going to Yuling Island. I received news that Yuling Island will have a once-in-a-millennium spiritual sea tide in early August. It's just right for us to go early!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the disciples of the Fenglei Sect and the Danqi Sect on the spirit boat all started discussing in surprise.
"There's actually a Spirit Sea tide? It only happens once every thousand years. Is this true?"
"This is what the Lingqin Peak Master said, it must be true..."
"We have survived a great disaster, so we will have good fortune in the future..."
Li Qingqing felt a little emotional when she saw how happy they were.
She left a message to her disciples on the message board of the strongest master-disciple system, asking Xia Nanfeng, Lan Cen, Ye Bei, who had water spiritual roots, and Mu Qianlan, who had ice spiritual roots, to go to Yulingzhou in half a month.
It doesn’t matter whether other people go to Yulingzhou or not. Although they will gain something, it is actually far less effective than staying in Lingqin Peak to practice well.
After all, they still have the Heavenly Dao Spirit Stone she left behind.
