However, complaints aside, after their conditions returned to normal, they all discovered that their physical strength had significantly improved.
"Eh? Why do I feel like my physical strength has become stronger after being struck by lightning? And this skin—after tearing off the charred skin on the surface of my body, it feels like my physical body has become purer. My physical strength has increased by at least ten percent compared to before," a Disciple said with a look of astonishment after standing up and clenching his fist.
"Yeah, I felt it too. Why does this scene seem so familiar? Oh, I remember now. A few years ago, that rain containing the power of ice and fire also had the effect of increasing cultivation level and allowing people to achieve a Breakthrough. This time, the Tribulation Thunder clearly didn't fall to kill us; it seems more like it was helping us with Body Tempering," someone quickly brought up the incident from three years ago.
In this way, they felt that all of this seemed like the Heavens were favoring their Yunxia Sect, even though the falling lightning had made them look quite disheveled.
Yet, while disheveled, they had also gained unexpected rewards.
Seeing the tribulation clouds dissipate, the Old Ancestor of the Yunxia Sect frowned slightly, then his body flickered, and he appeared before Yun Yun and the others.
Upon seeing the silver-haired youth before them, Yun Yun and the others immediately bowed in salute.
"Master?"
"Old Sect Master."
Seeing her Master, Yun Yun immediately acted like a little girl, trotted over, and grabbed her Master's arm.
As for the others, they did not have the guts to do so.
Yun Yun was Yun Tian's Personal Disciple, and she had been brought back to the Yunxia Sect from the Mortal World by Yun Tian while still in swaddling clothes, so their relationship as Master and Disciple was very good.
Yun Yun was also very capable; in terms of Aptitude, she surpassed Yun Tian, and it only took her three hundred years to reach the Early Stage of the Dao Palace Nascent Soul Realm.
Meanwhile, Yun Tian had been stuck at the Peak of Soul Emergence for many years, constantly seeking a Breakthrough.
"Hmm, the Sect seems to have had some strange occurrences in the past few years. The ice and fire rain three years ago, the Nine Heavens falling lightning today... Yun'er, can you figure out what is going on?" Yun Tian asked with a smile.
Yun Tian was already quite old, over four hundred years old. Under normal circumstances, one at the Dao Palace Nascent Soul Realm could only live for five hundred years; his lifespan was coming to an end, which was why he had silver hair.
"This... Master, this Disciple also does not know what is going on. At first, I thought it was some expert performing techniques to attack our Yunxia Sect, but although the momentum was grand, the power was very small, and it was not aimed at destroying our Yunxia Sect."
"Afterwards, many of the afflicted Disciples not only had no injuries left in their bodies, but on the contrary, it helped them achieve a Breakthrough. I just observed those Disciples who were struck by lightning; they looked disheveled, but were not in any life-threatening danger, and their physical strength had even increased. So, this Disciple has absolutely no clue either," Yun Yun said with a bewildered look.
Yun Tian also nodded. He had absorbed a lot of the falling lightning just now, so he naturally knew that the power of the lightning here was not great.
"Then do you have any clues?" After thinking for a moment, Yun Tian looked at Yun Ling and the others.
"Old Sect Master, since there is no harm, it must be a Luck-bestowing rain. This Disciple feels that this should be a blessing bestowed by the Heavens; otherwise, it cannot be explained," Yun Ling said solemnly.
The other three Elders also agreed with Yun Ling's idea. When strange phenomena descend from the Heavens, if it is not a bad thing, it must be a blessing. At their Realm, they were still unable to comprehend the Laws of Heaven and Earth, so it was normal that they could not see through the will of Heaven.
But just when they thought this was a blessing from the Heavens, dark clouds began to gather over the Yunxia Sect again.
"Eh? Why are the dark clouds gathering again?" After noticing that the sunlight was being blocked, Yun Yun and the others immediately raised their heads to look at the sky.
"Rumble, rumble, rumble..."
After the dark clouds gathered, the thunder roared incessantly. The Yunxia Sect Disciples were startled, but the Disciples who had benefited from being struck by lightning earlier did not hide; instead, they walked to an open space, looked at the dark clouds, and shouted excitedly.
"Oh Heavens, let the lightning come more fiercely! As long as you don't strike me dead, it's fine."
But unfortunately, this time, no lightning fell. Instead, it began to rain. Moreover, this rain did not contain the power of ice and fire, but it seemed to contain a rich essence of life.
Wherever the rain fell, a large amount of flowers and grass grew. Even on people's bodies, flowers and grass grew rapidly; it was very sudden.
"This? What is this? Why are flowers and grass growing on me?" Inside the Yunxia Sect, there were screams one after another. Growing flowers and grass on one's body was certainly not a good thing, so they hurriedly found places to avoid the rain.
As for Yun Yun and the others, they used their power to isolate the rain. Unlike the previous falling lightning, this rain could be blocked and defended against.
"Another strange phenomenon." Yun Tian watched as Yun Yun and the others hurriedly used their power to shatter the flowers and grass growing on their bodies.
They hadn't reacted in time earlier and had been showered by the rain. After discovering that something was wrong with the rain, they quickly erected power barriers.
In less than a moment, the originally solemn Yunxia Sect seemed to have turned into an ancient ruin that hadn't been cleaned for hundreds of years. The paths and buildings were all covered in dense flowers and grass, and the solemn Yunxia Sect became somewhat comical.
This time, those Disciples could not be happy. With so much grass and flowers growing on their heads, who could stand it? Fortunately, the roots of these flowers and grass had not taken root inside their bodies; otherwise, it would have been embarrassing—a sea of green on their heads.
"Dammit, Master, regardless of whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, if these strange things keep happening, how can the Disciples of the Sect calm their hearts to Cultivate? With the thunder constantly roaring and deafening, even if it were a good thing, it would turn into a bad thing," Yun Yun said with some irritation.
However, Yun Tian shook his head.
"Yun'er, your state of mind needs further improvement. A true Cultivator can remain as immovable as a mountain even when amidst a sea of fire. This rolling thunder is indeed irritating, but if you can calm your heart to Cultivate under the thunder, it might just be an improvement of your state of mind."
"Alright, Master will return now. Since we cannot stop these strange phenomena from happening, we can only adapt to them. I hope that all of this is not a bad thing for the Sect." Yun Tian sighed and then disappeared from where he stood.
This rain containing the power of life only lasted for five minutes. Five minutes later, the clouds parted and the sun shone again.
Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun's Alchemy had also stopped. This time, she had refined a water-blue Medicinal Pill.
"Master, has something strange happened outside again?" After finishing the Alchemy, Ye Liuyun noticed that Lin Qingyou was looking out the window again, so she asked.
However, this time Lin Qingyou seemed to have seen the reason for the frequent strange phenomena.
"Hmm, it should be the power of the ten thousand medicine immortal cauldron that caused the refined Medicinal Pill to be tainted with Immortal Qi. Anything tainted with Immortal Qi is no longer a mundane item. This is the birth of an Immortal Pill triggering changes in Heaven and Earth," Lin Qingyou explained.
Ye Liuyun was stunned, then nodded in agreement. It did make sense, but not entirely, because refining an Immortal Pill from just ordinary Medicinal Herbs and causing changes in Heaven and Earth made her feel that something was still rather strange.
"Let's not talk about that for now. You should take a look at the new Medicinal Pill I've refined," Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
Lin Qingyou immediately turned around to look at the Medicinal Pill in Ye Liuyun's hand, which was emitting a sapphire glow.
"It contains a rich power of life. This should be some kind of healing Medicinal Pill," Lin Qingyou stated.
Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun immediately reached out and used her power to cut her own wrist. Blood flowed instantly, and she hurriedly took one of the Medicinal Pills.
As soon as the Medicinal Pill entered her mouth, sure enough, a rich power of life quickly spread throughout her body, and the wound on Ye Liuyun's wrist healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
But the effect of this Medicinal Pill was certainly far more than just that.
