This sudden rainfall completely changed Hanyu mountain's landscape.
The originally barren and dusty mountains, after the rainstorm, were covered with trees and lush grass, which not only restored the former plants, but made them even more exuberant.
But such unrestrained growth didn't last long.
A quarter of an hour after the rainstorm, the wild growth trend of trees in the mountains stopped, as if the spirit Qi had all been sucked away.
And in the back mountain of the Wolf God Temple, the peach forest surrounded by walls is full of fallen flowers. In the peach blossom forest, which has been blooming for nearly a year, all the peach blossoms withered within a quarter of an hour after the rainstorm.
On the green branches, there are faint small green fruits.
The next morning , Xiao Ai suddenly found that the fragrance of peach blossoms in the mountains had suddenly disappeared.
She rushed to the peach forest and found that all the peach flowers in the peach forest had withered. But on the green branches, there were many small fruits the size of green plums.
Seeing this scene, the White Ape was very happy, chirping loudly and constantly, thinking that there were peaches to eat.
Xiao Ai slapped it on the head and poured a basin of cold water on the excited White Ape.
"They're so small. It will take many years for them to become mature…"
Xiao Ai said, looking at the sky overhead.
Yesterday's rain lasted for three hours. However, after the rainfall, the reddish Heavenly Thunder Clouds disappeared.
Now, over Hanyu mountain, there is a long lost blue sky.
The sudden change in the peach forest must be due to yesterday's rainfall, which brought water vitality. But even such a rainfall only makes the peach blossom wither and bear these small fruits.
It will take a long time to wait for these fruits to mature by themselves.
However, compared with these green peaches in the peach forest, Xiao Ai is more concerned about the situation of Lord Wolf God at this time.
Having witnessed yesterday's divine thunder, and knowing the horror of this God Slaying Heavenly Thunder from the two priests of the Li tribe, Xiao Ai was worried.
But now she can do nothing except worrying. The weakness of her own strength made the little girl more determined to devote herself to cultivating harder.
She wants to have the ability to take charge of her own affairs, instead of hiding behind the Wolf God every time something happens.
As for the two priests of the Li tribe, they left yesterday.
Li Po took the required Thunder Sand from Xiao Ai and dragged his half disabled body away.
Although he didn't take away too much, nearly 70% of the Thunder Sand was lost when casting the Heavenly Thunder Sword. Now Li Po has taken away part of what remained, and Xiao Ai has little left of Thunder Sand.
The old priest Li Ju returned to the camp to recuperate.
From the moment the embryo of the sword in the furnace was first formed, the two priests were fully immersed in the control of the fire, without the slightest distraction to resist the killing intent emanating from the sword. So after the fire broke out, both of them were hurt by the fire, and they needed to rest for a long time to recover.
Although the old priest wanted Li Po to stay in the Wind Raiders department for recuperation.
But Li Po, who got Thunder Sand, was so anxious that he didn't want to delay for a moment.
Rejecting the old man's kindness, he dragged his half-disabled body and quickly disappeared in the sight of the public, and immediately returned to the Great Sea Department to make preliminary preparations.
Hanyu mountain, which turned into scorched earth due to the rampant sword furnace's fire, has finally restored its former tranquility and greenness.
The people of the Wind Raiders department once again moved the camp back to the mountains and reclaimed the wasteland. But the weather is getting colder and colder, and the midwinter is approaching, so the cultivated wasteland can only be sown tomorrow.
Fortunately, the grain reserves in previous years were enough, and they exchanged some rice grains from the Shuisheng village. The Wind Raiders department didn't worry about running out of grain.
What's more, there are beasts entrenched in the depths of Hanyu mountain, and there is a large lake through Hanyu mountain, in which fish are plump. The mountain is a treacherous obstacle for ordinary people seeking to reach the great lake,
However, everyone in the Wind Raiders department is very strong. The mountains and dense forests can't stop their pace at all, and they are not afraid of the beasts in the mountains.
They often sent a fishing team to the great lake behind the mountain, and it would take them half a day to go back and forth.
Outside Hanyu mountain, the villagers of Shuisheng village are confused about what happened in the mountain. They didn't know about the God Slaying Heavenly Thunder, but they saw the terrible scene of red thunder and the subsequent heavy rain, which made the whole Hanyu mountain green again after raining.
The villagers thought that the red Heavenly Thunder Clouds were the divine power of the Wolf God, so they didn't take this matter to heart.
Later, on the Double Ninth Festival, the Shuisheng village held a grand sacrifice again, and as usual, the villagers came to the bend at the foot of the main peak to hold a sacrifice.
However, many people from the Wind Raiders department also attended the ceremony this year. A temporary market was built at the bend of the river, which was very lively.
Xiao Ai, like last year, presided over this sacrifice.
But until the end of the sacrifice, the Wolf God didn't appear.
The anxiety in her heart went up to a higher level.
After the Double Ninth Festival, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the little girl has been unable to cultivate for several days.
She sat on the bluestone stairs, holding her cheeks in her hands, staring at the green hill in the distance, her eyes full of worry. The restless state made her unable to settle down.
In the underground temple, Lu Heng was slowly repairing the damage to his soul.
He suffered the God Slaying Heavenly Thunder with Heavenly Thunder Sword. Although it was very damaging to him, it made him see another possibility that he never thought of before.
Although he can only command ordinary thunder now.
But the power of the God Slaying Heavenly Thunder is forever imprinted in his soul. Like a seed that has not yet sprouted, although it is silent, it may one day bloom an extraordinary future.
In the quiet underground temple, the huge white wolf lay down and slept with his eyes closed.
Lu Heng's translucent soul was suspended in the void in front of the white wolf. Between his soul and demon body, there is a faint golden breath flowing.
But now there is a dark blue sword associated with this soul.
In the dark yellow spirit Qi of the earth, the Heavenly Thunder Sword, who had survived the God Slaying Heavenly Thunder, floated quietly, without killing intent. The simple and calm appearance looked without the slightest ferocity.
The scabbard completely restrained all the sword's strong killing auras.
The God Slaying Heavenly Thunder in the sheath has completely disappeared now. Even Lu Heng can't find a trace, which seems to have disappeared in this Heavenly Thunder Sword.
But Lu Heng knew that the situation is not that simple.
When he eased the injury in his soul a little, his soul in the underground temple directly opened his eyes and flew out of the ground with the sword.
A golden light broke through the ground in front of the the the Wolf God Temple and went up into the sky.
The clear sky over the the the Wolf God Temple quickly gathered clouds. In the end, those clouds gathered from all directions directly turned into dark Heavenly Thunder Clouds, rotating slowly over the Wolf God Temple, like a cold eye of God, silently staring at the earth below.
This long lost Heavenly Thunder Clouds appeared, once again obscuring the sky above the main peak.
The little girl and the White Ape had long been startled by the changes in the sky. Both she and the White Ape looked up and saw a human figure faintly below the Heavenly Thunder Clouds.
Then came the deafening thunder.
For more than a year, the main peak of Hanyu mountain, which has not fallen any thunder, has suffered seven blazing lightning bolts in a row.
In the shocked gaze of Xiao Ai and the White Ape, all the seven lightning bolts were absorbed by the Heavenly Thunder Sword suspended in the void.
But as the flickering lightning bolts were slowly sucked into the scabbard, even the fierce heavenly power gradually disappeared.
Lu Heng below the Heavenly Thunder Clouds lowered his head and saw Xiao Ai in front of the Wolf God Temple. He also saw the worry and joy in the little girl's eyes.
He smiled slightly, didn't say anything, and directly returned to the ground with Heavenly Thunder Sword.
Next, he will go to test his guess.
As for Xiao Ai, after seeing his appearance, the little girl should put down her worries.
