So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

It's only been a few days?

Less than four days! Bai Ruoxi has already reached the God Refining Realm?

Even Mu Zhian was a little jealous.

His talent is also very good, but that was exchanged for his life span.

God's jealousy of talents gave Mu Zhian extremely strong cultivation talents, but also reduced the corresponding life span.

And Bai Ruoxi did not lose anything, and her cultivation speed is still so exaggerated.

She is the protagonist, right?

Recalling the days of accompanying Bai Ruoxi in the room day and night to practice, and looking at Bai Ruoxi's charming smile, Mu Zhian felt a little better.

Well... But Bai Ruoxi can refine the God Refining Realm, I have at least one-third of the credit.

After all, Bai Ruoxi's cultivation can be greatly improved, and it is also the credit of Mu Zhian's dual cultivation with her in the past few days.

"By the way, what ability did you get from the God Refining Realm?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked.

Bai Ruoxi's eyes flickered slightly, and her eyes gazed at Mu Zhian gently, her mouth slightly opened, and she was about to speak.

At this moment, a thunderclap suddenly resounded in the air, interrupting the conversation between the two.

Bai Ruoxi turned his head and looked out the window. It was a clear sky just now, but now it was covered with dark clouds.

Thunder roared in the sky, and branch-shaped lightning rolled in the deep lead-colored clouds. Just the first glance gave people an indescribable palpitation.

"Heavenly tribulation." Mu Zhian said subconsciously.

Cultivating immortals is to go against the will of heaven. Generally speaking, refining essence and refining qi are still in the category of "human" and will not cause heavenly tribulation.

But starting from the realm of refining spirits, they officially stepped into the path of "cultivating immortals".

Some cultivators with excellent talents will trigger a heavenly tribulation every time they advance to a certain realm.

Some geniuses will even cause a heavenly tribulation when they advance to a certain grade.

Obviously, Bai Ruoxi also belongs to the group with excellent talents.

Staring at the tribulation clouds in the air, Mu Zhian's eyes were a bit solemn.

He had never seen a heavenly tribulation, but judging from the tribulation cloud filled with the breath of destruction, this heavenly tribulation... may not be so easy to survive.

Bai Ruoxi's expression was still calm. She looked up at the tribulation cloud slowly moving towards her, turned her head to look at Mu Zhian, and smiled: "Wait for me here for a while, I'll be back soon."

If it was her in the past, she might have been a little worried when she saw such a heavenly tribulation when she was promoted to the spirit, but now she has been reborn.

Even if it is a heavenly tribulation, Bai Ruoxi has enough confidence to survive it.

Looking at Bai Ruoxi leaving the room, Mu Zhian thought for a moment, and then left the room, but happened to see Wei Mengrou standing in the yard.

The two looked at each other, and Mu Zhian didn't even speak. Wei Mengrou had already pinched the formula to summon the flying sword and said, "Follow me."

Sister Mengrou really understands me... Mu Zhian nodded slightly, put his hands on Wei Mengrou's waist, and the flying sword broke through the air and caught up with Bai Ruoxi who was flying out of the city gate.

Yangfeng Inn.

Lan Mulian was sitting cross-legged on the bed, with her eyes slightly closed, meditating quietly.

A closer look would reveal that her room was full of purified spiritual energy, and the rich spiritual energy was constantly being absorbed into her cauldron. Her cultivation speed was no less than that of Bai Ruoxi, who possessed the energy of the Heavenly Dao.

At this time, she frowned slightly, as if she had noticed something, and slowly opened her eyes.

She tilted her head slightly and looked at a certain direction outside the window.

"The heavenly tribulation of the Refining Spirit Realm?" Lan Mulian whispered to herself, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

This Tianxuan City... someone has been promoted to the Refining Spirit Realm?

After thinking for a moment, Lan Mulian raised her hand slightly and grabbed a cloud in the sky.

She stepped on the cloud and flew gracefully towards the outside of Tianxuan City.

...

Ye Mansion.

Ye Yu slowly opened his eyes, feeling the changes in his body after stepping into the second level of Qi training, and couldn't help but clench his fists excitedly.

In just a few days, he was promoted to the second level of Qi training. Such talent is rare even in the entire world of immortal heroes.

It is no wonder that Ye Yu is so excited with such a monstrous talent.

After this sect assessment, Bai Ruoxi will definitely regret breaking off the engagement that day!

Mu Zhian only has the resources of the Mu family, but his potential is endless... After this sect assessment, Bai Ruoxi will know who is the right person for her!

However, even if she regrets breaking off the engagement at that time, he will not accept her again.

Recalling Bai Ruoxi's beautiful face, Ye Yu was full of anger, but also had unspeakable jealousy.

These days, Bai Ruoxi lives in the Mu Mansion almost every day, and judging from the intimacy between Bai Ruoxi and Mu Zhian that day, I am afraid that she has completely become Mu Zhian's woman...

Ye Yu clenched his fists tightly.

He must continue to endure until he makes a splash during the sect assessment!

He was about to continue meditating and practicing, but at this moment, the old man in his body suddenly sent a surprised voice: "Refining God Realm Heavenly Tribulation?"

Ye Yu was stunned for a moment, turned his head slightly to look at the window, and his eyes immediately froze on the lead-colored clouds that were quietly gathering not far away.

A breath of destruction came over him, and Ye Yu's heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.

Someone is going to pass the tribulation!

How long has it been since a cultivator in Tianxuan City was promoted to the Refining God Realm?

And judging from the terrifying pressure of this tribulation cloud, the owner who was promoted to the Refining God Realm is probably also a demon-level figure...

Who could it be?

It is unlikely that the older generation of cultivators would cause this kind of tribulation cloud, it should be a gifted younger generation of cultivators.

Gongsun Cheng, Huang Manting, or...Bai Ruoxi?

Gongsun Cheng and Huang Manting are only at the eighth level of Qi training, and it is impossible for them to reach the ninth level of Qi training in a short time.

"..."

Ye Yu stared at that direction and murmured: "Bai Ruoxi's heavenly tribulation...?"

In just a few days, she actually reached the realm of spiritual training?

Ye Yu pushed the door open in disbelief and ran towards the gate of Tianxuan City.

On this day, the heavenly tribulation of the realm of spiritual training attracted the attention of countless cultivators, and the minions of the Gongsun family and the Chenxi Chamber of Commerce were also watching all this in secret.

Mu Zhian followed Bai Ruoxi to the outside of the city gate under the leadership of Wei Mengrou, but did not approach her, just watched this scene from a distance.

If ordinary cultivators approach the heavenly tribulation, it will only increase the power of the heavenly tribulation, and both of them will pass the tribulation at the same time, which is tantamount to seeking death.

A huge vortex formed in the sky. The vortex was slowly turning, and the lightning in the center of the vortex was surging, as if brewing its own power.

"Sister Mengrou had to go through the tribulation before she was promoted to the Refining God Realm?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked, looking at Bai Ruoxi standing under the tribulation cloud with a sword on her back.

"Yes, but there was no such exaggerated tribulation cloud." Wei Mengrou frowned slightly, staring at the beauty in the white dress, and whispered to herself:

"There are actually six levels of tribulation..."

The tribulation in the Refining God Realm is actually not that terrible. Generally speaking, a cultivator who has just been promoted to the Refining God Realm has almost reached the limit after experiencing two or three tribulations.

The destructive power of the tribulation gradually increases from bottom to top.

The Refining God Realm will only encounter six tribulations at most.

What did Bai Ruoxi experience in the Refining God Realm, and what path did she choose, that she would actually encounter six levels of tribulation...

"Heh... It would be interesting if she died in the tribulation."

At this time, a leisurely voice suddenly came from the ground. Gongsun Cheng, holding a folding fan, was looking at the beautiful figure outside the city gate with a look of watching a good show.

Sensing Mu Zhian's gaze, Gongsun Cheng smiled and said, "Don't get me wrong, Master Mu. If possible, I naturally hope that Miss Bai can survive the heavenly tribulation. However, with such a terrifying heavenly tribulation, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents, right?"

He was not worried that Mu Zhian or Wei Mengrou would take action in such a place. The examiner for this sect assessment was also nearby. If they had the intention to kill here, she would definitely stop them.

Mu Zhian smiled and said, "If I die accidentally, I will be very sad."

"Then I can only ask Master Mu to mourn and accept the change at that time."

"Then I'm afraid you will also have to mourn and accept the change at that time." Mu Zhian smiled.

Threatening me...?

Gongsun Cheng chuckled to himself.

Gongsun Xiong had said before that Mu Zhian was an extremely rational person, and everything he did would be in his own interests.

Even if Bai Ruoxi died in the heavenly tribulation today, Mu Zhian could only be helpless and furious.

Could it be that he would fight to the death with the Gongsun family because of his words, and let other families take advantage of the situation?

This is not Mu Zhian's character.

"Master Mu——"

Gongsun Cheng was about to continue to say something, but Mu Zhian smiled calmly:

"Get away."

Gongsun Cheng's face was gloomy, and he said: "Master Mu, you and I are both the eldest sons of the family. It's probably not appropriate to talk like this?"

"Get out of here ten miles away now. If you don't want to be decent, I can help you be decent." Mu Zhian glanced at him calmly.

Just you... Gongsun Cheng wanted to say this, but he finally endured it after noticing Wei Mengrou's intentional and unintentional cold gaze.

Although his father had repeatedly warned him not to annoy Mu Zhian again, Gongsun Cheng was still a little unconvinced. Why can a "younger generation" who is younger than him treat him like this?

Under Wei Mengrou's cold gaze, Gongsun Cheng finally retreated a distance in disgrace.

He knew very well that if Wei Mengrou didn't kill her, the sect examiner would probably not intervene in the matter.

And when this little farce ended, many cultivators had gathered outside the city gate without realizing it.

Their eyes fell on the girl in white dress at the center of the thunder tribulation, and there was a constant noise for a while.

"How long has it been since I saw the heavenly tribulation of the Refining God Realm... Miss Bai is less than 20 years old this year, right? And she was only at the ninth level of Qi training a few days ago... Such a talent is enough to look down on her peers."

"I was fortunate enough to see the heavenly tribulation before, but its power was far less than the heavenly tribulation in front of me."

"Even the sect examiner this time was alarmed... It seems that the examiner attaches great importance to Miss Bai..."

"After all, this is probably the first genius in the younger generation to be promoted to the Refining God Realm... Miss Bai will definitely achieve great success in the future."

People looked at the beautiful figure in white dress with a sighing tone, and everyone's eyes were filled with deep sighs and envy.

If many people still had fantasies about Bai Ruoxi in the past, thinking that they would pursue her after she reached the Refining God Realm in the future, now most people have no other thoughts except helplessness and admiration.

"If he successfully survives the heavenly tribulation of the Refining God Realm, wouldn't the eldest young master of the Mu family be so happy? In the future, he will have a Taoist companion who has reached the Refining God Realm at a young age, and even if he is at the Refining God Realm, he will still have to serve him obediently..."

This caused a stir in the crowd. People subconsciously looked at the young man in white robe standing on the flying sword not far ahead, with undisguised jealousy in their eyes.

"The first thunderbolt is coming!"

Someone in the crowd exclaimed, and people looked at it. The vortex calamity cloud was like a mirror at this time. At this moment, ripples appeared in the calamity cloud, and the golden light suddenly broke. The thick lightning penetrated the sky and the earth, like a golden dragon falling from the sky.

The terrifying power and the rumbling sound that seemed to shake the sky made many cultivators tremble with fear.

Is the heavenly tribulation of the Refining God Realm so terrifying?

However, facing the thunderbolt, Bai Ruoxi did not dodge or avoid it, but instead sacrificed the mysterious bronze sword from behind.

She pinched the formula to stand the bronze sword in front of her, raised her finger and waved it, and the bronze sword slashed out, directly splitting the thunderbolt.

"It's the bronze sword that defeated Gongsun Cheng that day!" Someone recognized the weapon Bai Ruoxi had used.

"The power of this first thunder tribulation is probably much stronger than Gongsun Cheng... If it's the second thunder tribulation, I'm afraid that two Gongsun Chengs combined will not be able to resist it."

People were talking about it, as if they had already used Gongsun Cheng as a unit of measurement.

Mu Zhian looked up and saw Bai Ruoxi flying on the sword, with the bronze sword behind her swooping towards the thunder cloud.

He noticed something was wrong.

Bai Ruoxi didn't want to resist the heavenly tribulation... She wanted to block the thunder directly!

Boom!

When the second heavenly tribulation fell, Bai Ruoxi just raised her sleeves, and a golden chain swooped out from her sleeves, forming a net in front of her, blocking the second thunder tribulation.

I've never seen her use this chain before... Could this be the way she comprehended in the realm of refining spirits? Mu Zhian thought to himself.

At this time, Bai Ruoxi had already flown to the calamity cloud. She raised her hand again and sacrificed the bronze sword, forcibly cutting off the third thunderbolt.

Bai Ruoxi did not stop there, but flicked her finger and threw the bronze sword out. The seemingly simple and unremarkable bronze sword directly blasted away the fourth and even the fifth thunderbolt.

In the end, the bronze sword penetrated the calamity cloud, and the sixth thunderbolt disappeared quietly before it could fall.

No... it was not disappearing, the essence of the thunderbolt was completely swallowed by the bronze sword!

However, to outsiders, this scene was as if the bronze sword broke through the calamity cloud.

Indistinctly, a ray of brilliant light shone down from the gap in the calamity cloud penetrated by the bronze sword.

The sunrise is seen when the clouds are cleared!

The voices of those who were talking just now quieted down, and when people looked at the graceful and beautiful back in the sky, their eyes were a little bit wrong.

The six-fold heavenly tribulation was actually broken so easily?

Mu Zhian looked at the woman in a white dress standing in the air with a sword on her back, and her beautiful figure with her skirt flying, and his eyes suddenly became a little strange.

He had long doubted whether Bai Ruoxi was the protagonist, and today, seeing such a shocking scene, Mu Zhian was almost certain that Ye Yu was probably not the protagonist... Bai Ruoxi was.

She was the chosen woman.

Then the question came... If Bai Ruoxi was the protagonist, then what kind of script did I get?

Could it be the heroine? Mu Zhian was half joking in his heart.

He raised his hand and opened his personal interface, and suddenly saw the pink heart box with the word "supporting role". Its color seemed to be much darker than before... Rather than pink, it was more like red.

What exactly does this heart mean... Mu Zhian fell into a brief thought.

Without giving Mu Zhian too much time to think, Bai Ruoxi, who had successfully passed the tribulation not far away, had already quietly flown towards him on a sword.

Mu Zhian gathered his thoughts, went up to him, and asked, "Are you okay?"

Bai Ruoxi nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "It's just a few thunder tribulations, no problem."

Mu Zhian nodded in relief.

He could feel that there was indeed no sign of disordered breath on Bai Ruoxi's body.

He changed the subject and asked, "The chain you used just now is the way you comprehended when you entered the realm of soul refining?"

Bai Ruoxi inadvertently glanced at Lan Murian, who was standing on the clouds and seemed unattainable, and quickly retracted her gaze.

She nodded reservedly, stared at Mu Zhian, and smiled, "It's not very convenient here. I'll tell you when I go back."
