After being reborn, all I want to do is run away.

Chapter 430 Thunder Pattern Stele Forest

After Shen Xu left, Bai Lu couldn't help but ask, "Aunt Lan, can you tell me why you insist that I be with Shen Xu?"

"What? Are you dissatisfied with Shen Xu?"

"No, I'm just a little curious," Bai Lu replied weakly.

"I can only tell you that this was arranged by your mother."

"How is this possible? How could Mother know Shen Xu?"

"Astrologers believe that the workings of all things in the world are contained within the constellations, and even the future can be glimpsed in the mists of the stars."

And your mother was an excellent astrologer.

She might not know Shen Xu, but she knows Shen Xu will definitely appear by your side.

"Aunt Lan, why didn't you tell me from the beginning?"

"You didn't ask me either."

"Okay!" At the time, she was so flustered that she didn't even think to ask why.

"So, Aunt Lan, do you mean my mother saw me and Shen Xu together in the stars?" Bai Lu suddenly asked excitedly.

“If that’s the case, then your mother and I don’t need to get involved.”

……

"It's rare that you would wait for me." After walking out of the Tianhe Sword Hall, Bai Lu couldn't help but smile when she saw Shen Xu outside.

"I was afraid you'd forgotten to ask about Xiaoruo and the others."

"How could that be? Am I that forgetful?"

Aunt Lan said that the temple uses the physical body as an anchor point, and no matter where you take them, their souls will find the physical body.

And you're seriously underestimating the abilities of the Sage of Heaven! How could he possibly send it to the wrong place?

"In that case, if Xiao Ruo hasn't returned by then, I plan to send her back to Baiyu City."

"Very well, it was indeed inappropriate to take the unconscious Xiao Ruo to participate in the Milky Way Tide. Now that Xiao Ruo is no longer in danger, we should send her back to the city lord's side."

"Ok!"

He still remembered the promise he made to Xiao Ruo, and he could only go to Baiyu City again after returning from Tianhe Sword Sect.

"By the way, I also asked about Xiao Yi's whereabouts."

Aunt Lan only said that she was going to carry out a very important mission and might not be able to come back for a while.

Xiao Zhi's cultivation technique has reached a critical stage; it's possible that only the three of us will return then.

"An important mission?"

"That's all it can do."

"What do you mean it can only be like this? Going back with me and Guanbi is not a good thing for you!"

Or do you only want to go with Li Xiaoyi? You didn't take me with you last time in the Blood Central Realm.

"No, can I be blamed for what happened in the Blood Central Realm?"

I didn't want any of you to come in with me.

"Xiao Yi only managed to get in by grabbing my hand at the last minute," Shen Xu explained helplessly.

"You mean Li Xiaoyi was forced into the spatial turbulence by you?"

"That should be it," Shen Xu said thoughtfully.

Li Xiaoyi must have seen him disappear before she hurriedly grabbed him.

Bai Lu's face darkened. She remembered that Li Xiaoyi had told her that she had voluntarily followed Shen Xu into the spatial turbulence.

She doubted herself for a long time afterward, and even now she still harbors resentment.

"How could she bully people like this! She's already gotten a huge advantage, yet she still tries to suppress her."

Taking a deep breath, Bai Lu understood that if she wanted to be with Shen Xu, she could not wait for him to take the initiative; strengthening herself and suppressing her rivals were both indispensable!

a few days later.

As evening falls, mist gradually spreads through the ancient forest, and a gentle breeze causes the mist to ripple slowly.

"Crack!"

Suddenly, a purple arc of electricity cleaved through the mist, flashing to a great distance and leaving a long trail of purple lightning before quickly dissipating into nothingness, and the mist once again enveloped the ancient forest.

Shen Xu looked at the charred marks under his feet and couldn't help but shake his head.

It can only be said that this movement technique, which was once rated as a top-tier Earth-level technique, is so difficult to master even with its first move. He can only use it with difficulty now, and he is still far from being able to control it at will.

Guan Bi emerged from the mist and commented calmly, "Your movements are as swift as lightning and as smooth as still water, leaving no trace in the air, only a flash of lightning. You are still far from being good enough."

But considering you've only practiced for a few days and yet you've reached this level, it shows you have a certain talent for this movement technique.

"You're making it sound like you're mocking me," Shen Xu said with a hint of helplessness.

In order to teach him the Nine Steps of Lightning, Guan Bi specially exchanged for a manual to learn. Although her current energy level was far from enough to support her in fully executing the Lightning Flash, she could still use this movement technique to move around in a small area.

In just a few days, Guanbi has almost accomplished all of the points she mentioned above.

"Your understanding of lightning is far less refined than mine. If you continue like this, even if you practice for a long time, you will not make significant progress."

What you need now is to improve your understanding of the meaning of thunder, not to practice it repeatedly here.

"Is that so? Does the Sword Alliance have any suitable areas for me to comprehend the meaning of lightning?"

"The Thunder Pattern Stele Forest in Tianhe Valley should be helpful to you."

"The Thunder Pattern Stele Forest?"

“Using heavenly thunder as ink and carving Taoist principles as steles, the Thunder Pattern Stele Forest was thus created.”

"don't know!"

"At first, the Thunder Pattern Stele Forest of Tianhe Valley was just a copy of the Tianhe Thunder-Attracting Platform of the Tianhe Sword Sect. But later, a senior accidentally dropped a piece of Thunder Pattern Jade while drawing lightning to build a treasure on the Thunder-Attracting Platform."

Unexpectedly, the Thunder Pattern Jade reacted with a piece of meteorite iron from the Thunder-Attracting Platform, forming a very unique material.

Not only can it attract heavenly lightning, but it will also imprint a unique attribute of heavenly lightning when attracting it, and display natural lightning patterns and meridians that embody the meaning of lightning.

After discovering this, the Sword Master intended to have the Heavenly River Society collect these two materials and put them into the Lightning-Attracting Platform, and then have the weapon refiners forge them into a stone tablet.

Today, the lightning-patterned stone tablets in the Lightning-Attracting Platform have grown into a forest, even surpassing the Heavenly River Lightning-Attracting Platform of the Heavenly River Sword Sect, becoming the new 'Holy Land of Lightning' for the Four Directions Sword Alliance.

"Won't that be dangerous? It sounds scary," Shen Xu asked timidly.

Guan Bi couldn't help but roll her eyes at Shen Xu, "How come I didn't know you were so afraid of dying?"

"I've always valued my life, okay?"

"Why didn't you tell us back in Shuanghe Village that the teleportation array wasn't imprinted on your body?" Guan Bi asked Shen Xu earnestly, looking into his eyes.

Shen Xu avoided Guan Bi's eyes. "Even if I had told you back then, we couldn't have turned back, and I had my reasons for not backing down."

“We can discuss other methods; you don’t need to be the first to take the lead.”

“If you had any other methods, you wouldn’t have let me explore the way ahead.”

Moreover, with Jiaojiao there at the time, nothing would have happened.

"Besides, that's all in the past now, we should focus on the present." Shen Xu replied with a light laugh.

Guan Bi sighed softly, then said seriously, "Promise me you won't do that again. We can help you solve any problems you may have."

After you and Miss Xiao Yi disappeared, Miss Xiao Yi felt guilty and couldn't sleep for nights on end. She always felt that she was the one who ruined you.

Miss Xiao Yi has a teleportation array, but you have nothing.

"Don't worry, I really value my life."

"Are there any precautions to take when visiting the Leiwen Stele Forest?" Shen Xu wanted to change the subject.

“We can return to the Tianhe Sword Sect ahead of time. You can go to the Tianhe ‘Broken Tail Thunder Swamp’ to temper your body first, otherwise you may not be able to stay in the Thunder Pattern Stele Forest for a long time.”

"Can I also go to the training area of ​​the Tianhe Sword Sect?"

"The disciples of the Four Directions Sword Alliance hold a very high position in the five major sects."

"The 'Broken-Tailed Thunder Swamp' isn't exactly an important area; if you reveal your identity as a Sword Alliance disciple, probably no one will stop you."
