"Not good!"

Qin Chen felt a chill run down his spine; he had a premonition that under this lightning, he would be unable to withstand it and would turn to ashes in an instant.

But just at that moment, Qin Chen saw Ji Ruoyue charging towards him.

"Qin Chen, I’m coming to block it for you!"

Ji Ruoyue shouted angrily, her face resolute, as she intended to face the lightning tribulation for Qin Chen, using her life to exchange for his.

"Ruoyue, don’t come over, you can’t block it..." Qin Chen’s face turned pale with fear, and he yelled in panic.

"No, Qin Chen, I have never been able to help you before, this time, I must help you. Even if I die, as long as you live, that is enough."

Tears streamed down Ji Ruoyue's face as she rushed over. "If you die, and I’m left living alone, what meaning does life have?"

Ji Ruoyue threw herself forward madly, clearly having already discarded her own life, only wanting to save Qin Chen.

"No... don’t!"

Qin Chen shouted!

"Boom boom..."

At that moment, the lightning had already descended, and it was directed at Ji Ruoyue, clearly because she had interfered with the lightning tribulation.

"Don’t!"

Qin Chen’s heart was filled with despair and anger; how could he allow this lightning tribulation to strike Ji Ruoyue? He couldn't withstand it himself, how could she possibly endure it?

Without a second thought, Qin Chen lunged forward, swinging his sword at the overwhelming lightning. However, the speed of the lightning was too fast. Before he could react, it struck Ji Ruoyue.

Endless lightning exploded, and Ji Ruoyue's body instantly shattered, blood splattering and limbs flying. The lightning was too terrifying, Ji Ruoyue simply couldn’t withstand it.

"No!"

Qin Chen roared in fury; he couldn't accept it, he didn't want Ruoyue to leave him, he was unwilling.

But there was nothing he could do; he could only watch helplessly as Ji Ruoyue disintegrated, smiling at him. "Young Master Chen, don’t cry. I’m satisfied just to be able to help you. You must live well."

In the next moment, Ji Ruoyue was engulfed by endless lightning, turning to ash, with no trace left behind.

"No!"

Tears instantly streamed down Qin Chen's face, "Heaven, I’ll fight you!"

He roared, charging at the lightning giant in the sky, sword in hand.

"Not good!"

But at that moment, Qin Chen suddenly realized something felt off; he sensed something was not right.

That's right, it was Ruoyue. Since she had gained the celestial inheritance from the ancestors of the Ji family, how could she fall so easily?

Earlier, when she tried to help, the destructive lightning struck her, but it was that purple crystal that blocked the attack for her. However, just now, that purple crystal hadn’t appeared at all.

"Heart Demon, it’s the Heart Demon!"

A flash of inspiration struck Qin Chen’s mind, as if he had seen through something.

"True and false, false and true!"

"It’s always hard to discern!"

"This lightning tribulation is so ruthless, there’s even a Heart Demon tribulation!"

Qin Chen suddenly opened his eyes, regaining clarity. His aura soared, and a sharp sword intent shattered the world around him, like a mirror shattering into pieces.

"Break! Break! Break!" Three shouts of 'break' erupted forth, and everything before him vanished into thin air. Qin Chen suddenly awakened, realizing he was still in the Ji family's ancestral land, while Ruoyue and the others were nervously watching from a distance. Above him, the lightning giant’s hand was slowly descending, the terrifying lightning hovering right above him.

A breath of death enveloped him in an instant.

Qin Chen jolted awake; it was too fierce. If he hadn’t regained consciousness now, and if he had foolishly charged forward in the dream, he would have truly died.

At this moment, he couldn’t afford to think too much; the bloodline of lightning in his body erupted to its fullest extent. At the same time, the Heavenly Control Rotation Array and the Seven-Whispered Spirit Ball suddenly appeared beside him and activated instantly. In the next moment, endless lightning poured down, striking the Heavenly Control Rotation Array and the Seven-Whispered Spirit Ball, sending them flying. But at the same time, Qin Chen also gained a moment to breathe. He unleashed the sword technique, summoning the Heavenly Thunder Sword and the mysterious Rust Sword, both erupting with boundless destructive aura, cleaving into the lightning.
