After becoming a villain, the heroine overheard my thoughts

A scorching sun hangs in the sky above the desert.

Come again?

This scene immediately reminded He Yuan of the small world created by Yu Tongtian that he encountered on the first level.

then.

Yu Tongtian transformed himself into a bright sun, trying to deceive their senses.

Could it be that what is now presented before him is also a small world created by a former leader of the Wanxian Sect, and that the other party is hiding behind the scorching sun at this moment.

wrong!

Suddenly, He Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly. At this moment, he could clearly feel the scorching temperature coming from the scorching sun.

It was an extremely high temperature that seemed to be able to evaporate all the moisture in the human body.

By instinct.

Subconsciously, he walked quickly towards the only patch of green in the center of the desert.

It was also at this moment that he realized that his steps had suddenly become much lighter than before he set foot on the stone stairs.

Huh?

He Yuan let out a light exclamation, and at the same time quickly felt his limbs and dantian.

Only then did he discover it.

It turned out that not only his body movements became lighter, but his dantian also became much stronger.

Even his cultivation level has steadily reached the peak of the sixth level of foundation building, and there are signs that he is about to break through.

But the boundless desert he was in and the scorching sun above his head that was rapidly evaporating all the water in his body left him no time to think carefully about why his body had undergone such changes.

When he quickly arrived at the green area, he was depressed to find that these were just cacti that were about to wither.

There is no oasis and no water source.

But the scorching sun above our heads continues to rage.

If he had not created the Body of All Spirits and was not a cultivator at the sixth stage of Foundation Establishment, he no longer needed food and water to replenish his energy. He would have probably run out of energy and been dried up by the sun by now!

Yet even so.

After the water in his body disappeared rapidly, he still urgently needed water to maintain the balance of qi and blood in his body!

He tried to pull up a dying cactus.

However, I found that these cacti had actually been dry for a long time, and the inside had become fluffy and would break into pieces if squeezed.

"Whoosh!"

He Yuan suddenly took a step into the air.

He magnified his vision dozens of times, and at the same time his spiritual sense also probed outward.

result.

After searching for dozens of minutes, he was disappointed to find that the surrounding area within a radius of dozens or nearly a hundred miles was as hot as the desert where he was now. It seemed that even a drop of sweat would be evaporated into water vapor in an instant.

Squinting his eyes, He Yuan glanced coldly at the scorching sun in the sky.

It seems!

The source of all this is the scorching sun above our heads!

Thinking like this.

He Yuan immediately took out the Immortal-Slaying Sword that was broken into five pieces and hidden in the Zhenxian Palace.

To be precise, there are only four pieces left now.

He cut the four pieces of the Immortal-Slaying Sword into one long sword.

then.

He controlled the sword and suddenly chopped it towards the scorching sun in the air.

"Crack!"

A loud noise like a hard object breaking instantly spread throughout the desert.

next moment.

The scorching sun hanging in the sky suddenly split into two halves.

The blazing light emanating from its body also disappeared in an instant.

"Whoosh!"

He Yuan took the two halves of the fallen "Sun" and discovered that it was actually a jade plate made of polished stone crystal.

However, a small heating formation was arranged inside this jade plate, so it was like the scorching sun, baking this small world of only a hundred miles in radius into a desolate desert.

"Cough cough!"

At this moment, an awkward dry cough suddenly came from the void behind him.

He Yuan turned his head like a whirlwind, only to see that behind him, there was a short old man, only about 1.6 meters tall, standing.

The little old man had a white beard that was nearly one meter long, which combined with his short height made him look quite funny.

“Uh, ahem, that, little guy, the sword in your hand that you used to cut through my Sun-Snatching Formation is broken, but I can still sense a hint of the aura of a fairy weapon from it!”

The old man stared at him straight in the eyes and said, "But as far as I know, among all the immortal weapons in the history of our Tianyuan Continent, there is only one sword, and that is the Sword Sect's Immortal Beheading Sword! The one in your hand, could it be..."

He Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, Master Nie, the broken sword in this kid's hand is exactly the Sword Sect's Immortal Beheading Sword!"

"It is true! No wonder..."

The old man's face suddenly showed a hint of excitement, and he said, "No wonder this sword can so easily break the controllable formation that I spent my entire life to develop, the Sun-Capturing Formation! Hey, that's not right..."

Suddenly, he looked up at He Yuan and glared at him, saying, "How do you know my last name is Nie?"

He Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "You are in the Soul-Suppressing Tower of our Wanxian Sect, and you are so proficient in formations. You must be the fifth-generation leader of our Wanxian Sect, Nie Renkuang!"

"Hey, little guy, you're pretty smart!"

The old man was none other than Nie Renkuang, the fifth generation leader of the Wanxian Sect. He looked He Yuan up and down with a smile, then stroked his meter-long white beard and said, "Since the Immortal Slaying Sword is now in your hands, it proves that the Sword Sect is now in decline and is being suppressed by the Wanxian Sect everywhere, right?"

"Uh……"

He Yuan thought helplessly that what Nie Renkuang knew was all out of date. It seemed that for all these years, no one had been able to enter the fifth floor of the Soul-Calming Tower to teach them about the latest developments in the Tianyuan Continent.

So he said, "Senior, in fact, the Sword Sect was destroyed by everyone twenty years ago because the last Sect Master Yu Batian committed atrocities and offended all the famous and upright sects."

"The Sword Sect... is destroyed?"

Nie Renkuang was stunned for a moment, then he sighed and said, "Actually, if you think about it carefully, it's not too surprising. The Sword Sect had already begun to decline when Luo Renfeng was in charge. Forget it, let's not talk about this!"

As he said that, he changed the subject and said, "But this time it's really thanks to you, kid. If you hadn't used the Immortal Slaying Sword to destroy my Sun-Snatching Formation in time, I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before this wisp of my soul would have been roasted to ashes by the scorching sun gathered by the Sun-Snatching Formation!"

He Yuan: “…”

His own soul was burned to ashes by the sun-capping formation he created?

How come this sounds so ridiculous.

but!

When He Yuan suddenly recalled what Lu Shengxiang said, he understood it instantly.

He remembered that Lu Shengxiang had said at the time that the spirits of the successive leaders who remained in the Soul-Calming Tower had become extremely weak due to the baptism of time.

Especially from the third floor onwards of the Soul-Calming Tower, the primordial spirits have begun to fail.

perhaps.

The Nie Renkuang in front of him couldn't control the Sun-Captivating Formation anymore because his soul was too exhausted, right?

as predicted.

Next, Nie Renkuang’s words confirmed his guess.

The fifth generation leader of the Wanxian Sect sighed and said, "Boy, since you have climbed all the way up from the bottom of the tower, you should be able to feel that the souls of us, the successive leaders of the previous generations who have been left in the Soul-Calming Tower, are getting weaker and weaker."
